Harry Potter and the Time Traveler
Chapter 4- Attack at The World Cup
(Lauren's POV)
The first thing that I did was save a young wizard from a few men dressed in black cloaks.
He was around two, I believe, and Ron, Hermione, Harry, and I had passed him earlier in the day on our way to the stadium.
Right after I made the men leave, a Witch ran out from a nearby tent and took the boy from me.
"Oh, thank the four founders! Kevin here got away from me...his father is out dealing with these ruffians, and...is that a sword?"
I quickly lowered Dragon's Fire and nodded. "Yes, ma'am."
The mother eyed me with suspicion.
"How do I know that you're not with them?"
I took a few steps back and winced at her tone of voice. "Ma'am, I can assure you that in no shape or form that I am in league with..." My voice trailed off as I noticed a figure getting closer and closer to Kevin and his mother. Without a second thought, I raised my sword and swung.
"Bloody Hell! What happened to you?" I found myself sitting against a tree, which was nowhere near where I had been. It took me a while to realize who was speaking to me.
"...Ron...?"
Sure enough, there he was. I couldn't see him as well as I should, but I knew that the others were near, too.
"Is she going to be okay?"
Ron looked away to the left of him. "Well, she is pretty messed up. Probably has a concussion too, now that I think about it."
"...Wouldn't be the first time..."
Then Harry appeared in my field of vision.
"It looks like she took a Bludger to the face..."
I attempted to stand up, but Ron and Harry made me stay where I was.
"My dad will be here shortly. Ah, here he comes now."
Here, everything kinda faded away for a bit.
Then, after a while, everything came back.
"There. I've done what we've could. Bill, Charlie, help her up-we need to keep moving."
"I don't think it's a good idea if we move her."
"Well, she appears to be waking up, it'll be easier now."
My vision slowly returned and the first thing I saw was Charlie and Bill looking down at me.
"...Don't worry...the stuff seems to happen to me a lot. I'm kinda used to it by now...Can you two help me get up?"
The two men did so and someone handed me something.
It was my sword.
That's when I saw Hermione, Ron, and Harry nearby.
"We found it a few feet away. Harry's been safe-keeping it for you."
Any further talk was canceled by a massive explosion nearby.
Arthur once again told me to get the other three to the woods, and this time, I didn't think twice.
I found myself hightailing it into the nearby woods along with Ron, Harry, and Hermione.
We didn;t talk much, of course.
We eventually got far enough that I stopped the others.
"...Do you think we're in far enough?!"
"Ron!" This was from Hermione.
"What? I don't even know the direction of the field anymore!"
"It's North-East of here. Your dad'll find us soon enough. But he's got enough to worry about right now."
I got up from the forest floor, dusted myself off and walked past the three fourth-years.
"Where are you going? You can't just go off in the woods! Are you mad?!"
I turned back.
"Ron. I might actually be a little bit. I've done stuff that really no one should have to do...I have enough scars for at least five lifetimes. I've lost more pints of blood than I can count...Do I need continue?"
The three silently shook their heads and followed me deeper into the woods...
I KNOW that it is rushed!
FYI-I've already done the ending.
basically the seconds half of the last trial/the whole graveyard sequence.
But that will come later, of course.
