A/N Thank you all for the reviews. Harry Potter is not mine, this is a story from a fan.

(BSC 4 C 30) C117 time for the second task

The final two weeks until the second task were going really fast. If you would ask any of the friends they would tell you that they were going to fast. Day after day you could find the friends sitting at the edge of the lake while one or two of them were swimming around. They would each go into the water and see what they find out.

The other friends were making a map that Harry could study just to get there as fast as he could. Fleur was helping them by asking the questions they didn't find an answer for. As a return, Fleur could study the map together with Harry just so they could help each other by finding the things they had to find.

Harry who had only learned to swim a couple of years ago with the help of Daphne and Bella was taking the time to get some more practice.

Fleur was sitting next to Hermione and was looking on. Her mum had told her that Harry had a hard life. She didn't know what had happened to him because her mum had told her that it was his story to tell. However, it was the one thing she thought about whenever she saw something Harry did. He was always putting up a front that everything was great. However, she could see that now and then his front slipped and then she could see the real Harry.

"Are you sure Madam Maxime never gave you a hint of what it is you have to find?" Hermione asked her taking her out of her thoughts.

Fleur shook her head. It as the one thing that frustrated them all. But the more they thought about it the more they got the idea that it really was a person they had to get back. It really made them sick just thinking about it and couldn't think it would be true because they couldn't be this cruel, could they?

With only three days to go the friends had said they done all they could. There was nothing left to see or find out so it was time for some fun. As they were walking around the lake Harry whispered something into the ear of Hermione. She nodded and placed a warming spell around them all. "Like this," she asked.

Harry nodded and asked in his thought that his grandmother should come outside and that she had to take Zanita with her. It was ten minutes later they saw the two of them coming to him. When they got to him Harry smiled and took Zanita and his grandmother by the hands. He pulled them along to the clearing between the lake and the castle as he sat down. "How about we all have a picnic today".

They both nodded and sat down with the friends while Zanita asked a house elf to bring them a picnic basket. After the first picnic basket was brought to them It didn't take long for the picnic to become bigger when the whole house of Hogwarts were starting to join them.

Bella who had just sat down next to Harry looked around at the others. Behind them, she could see many students from the other houses looking on. It was clear to her that they to wanted to join the picnic but also that they weren't sure if they would be allowed.

So Bella did the one thing she had to do and told it all to Zanita, while she was pointing to all the other students. It didn't take long for Zanita to see what she wanted and started to order all the house elves to make a lot of picnic baskets for everyone. It was right after that order that Minerva and the friends started to place warming charms around the area so they could all enjoy the Picnic together. After another moment Zanita smiled and told them that the house elves were making the baskets. It was then that she placed her finger at her neck as she started to speak. Her voice was heard all over the castle and in every chamber. "The lunch will be held on the grounds in front of the castle. We will all have a picnic to enjoy the sun. For those who do not want to join us, there will be lunch in the great hall. It will be served at the Slytherin table where Albus and Snape will be there to answer all your questions". It was right after that, that there were multiple plops telling them that the house elves had placed all the baskets on the ground.

Harry leaned over and place his lips on the lips of Zanita as he went on to snog her senseless. Bella and Daphne were laughing and did the same the moment he stopped. Thank you they had said but it was clear to all of them that Zanita hadn't heard a word and was only smiling like the cat that got the canary.

Minerva smiled as she saw the smile on the face of Zanita as her eyes followed Harry and her sister wives. "What are you thinking of". Minerva asked her.

Zanita blushed a little as she kept on looking at Harry, Bella and Daphne. She smiled again and started. "My body is made of a snake. I'm a woman in flesh. Yet I will never be able to fulfil the things a woman can. I can not give him children or love in the way Bella and Daphne can. Yet the three of them still love me like I'm normal. Like I'm just like you and them. They kiss me like they kiss each other and all with the same amount of love. He is the son of Lily and James but he is so much more. There is a part in him that is more like Godrick, The Peverell Brothers and Merlin himself".

Minerva turned her eyes back to her grandson as she placed her hand on top of the hand of Zanita. "You are right about that. He has a lot from his mother. His looks from his father" and Minerva smiled. "I'm just glad he never got the stuck up attitude his daddy had in his first years. The charms James had are the same charmes he is using whenever he is at home. The only difference he has is he doesn't use his charms for his own gain but for getting the best out of the people around him. The one thing I do know is that he loves you just because you are you. I do know he has a lot of respect for you and especially the magic you can throw around. It impresses the hell out of him".

Zanita looked thankful at Minerva as she lifted her hand and kissed the back of it. "Thank you, grandmother Mini. I do love him very much just like I love all of my children but he does have that little bit more just like Bella and Daphne have. He is so special with everyone, and I'm not only talking about people but also Goblins, elves, centaurs, just everyone. the only one who could do it just as good was Merlin himself" Zanita smiled again. "I'm so proud of them all".

Minerva kissed her head as she told her "Me too dear, me too". That afternoon was filled with a lot of laughter, all this while Minerva and Zanita were looking on. The one thing that was clear to the both of them was that the house system wasn't they great Idea they thought it was. It was clear because here on the outside there weren't any house tables and every student was sitting all next to a student from another house without knowing it.

The other thing that stood out was the fact that there weren't any Slytherin's among the students. Minerva could not say she mist them but knew that Snape was the reason why they weren't outside. The thing that brought a smile to the two of them was that they could see a lot of the students from Boaubexbaton and Drumstrang school. The only ones that weren't see were Madam Maxime, Igor and Krum. Madam Maxime had come outside and ordered her students to get inside. Some of them stood but when Fleur turned around after she had told her that the tournament was made to create friendships. The moment she sat down so did a lot of other students and it left Madam Maxime fuming from the mouth as she rushed back to the castle.

That night the castle became very peaceful as everyone had a good night sleep because of the fresh air they all had.

Time went by and the excitement was starting to rise with every hour that went by as it got closer and closer to the second task. so the night before the second tasked found Fleur and Harry sitting in the great hall. Fleur was sitting at the Ravenclaw table staring at Harry that was sitting at the Hogwarts table that was standing next to Ravenclaw table. The big surprise, however, was that the families of the champions were walking into the great hall.

Jean and Apolline had come there together with little Gabrielle to cheer Fleur on. Just like the parents from Victor and Cedrick. For Harry, however, there was no one invited. It was made clear when the father of Cedrick closed the door behind him.

Zanita who had seen it disappeared from the spot and reappeared with Isabella at her side. to repeat it again for Andromeda and Tonks. She also went to get Sirius but found out he was to busy with Amelia to come. The thing Zanita had seen she would keep to herself forever. But the tattoo of a bunny with a bowtie on his left asscheek was something everyone would hear about every Christmas.

Albus wanted to say something but the look Zanita gave him as she sat down made him stop. It was something she would do the rest of the night just so the champions had a quiet night.

*#*

The morning of the second task had arrived. Harry wanted to sit up in his bed but something was holding him down. He could not move his arms or lags. The only thing he could move was his head. As he gazed down he could see the black curls of Bellatrix. And also an arm that didn't belong to her. So it wasn't hart for him to realize that both of his girls had climbed into his bed somewhere during the night. ^Grandmother, are you awake^ Harry thought as he laid his head back down.

Minerva didn't answer him so Harry wanted to ask again.

"Harry Please let Grandmother Mini Sleep a little longer". Daphne told him as she pushed herself a little closer to Harry. "She is going to have a busy day, It will be a sure thing that Dumbledork will do anything to be in the spotlight while she has to run the school. Not even thinking about the number of people who are coming here to see the task. So just let her sleep a little longer".

Harry nodded but could not shake the feeling that there was something very wrong. and the only thing he could think of was his grandmother.

"Why are you two talking so much" Bella mumbled. "Just give it a rest and go back to sleep" as she to pushed herself a little closer to Harry while she placed her arm over the body of Harry and Daphne.

Daphne took the hand from Bella and interlock their fingers. She placed their hand right on top of the heart of Harry as she smiled at Bella. Slowly the three of them drifted back asleep.

It was thirty minutes past eight when Zanita poped in front of their bed. She looked at the three for no longer than a couple of seconds when she started to shout at them to get up. "Wake up you three, I can't find Minerva anywhere. I do not know what to do because my feelings about the castle are scrambled. There is a magical field placed over the lake and my senses are going all over the place. I know it has something to do with the second task but there is something wrong with it".

Harry who was standing next to his bed was pushing his leg through the left side of his pans as he asked her what it was that was wrong.

"The magical field that is placed over the lake is one to keep a person in a dreamless sleep. Only it is much bigger and stronger. However, the field is starting to fail it is fluctuating between a working field and no field at all. I do not know why but I think the things you all have to find are people and they are at the bottom of the lake".

Harry who had his other leg halfway through his pans looked up at her as he stumbled to the floor. "What, there are people at the bottom of the lake" he screamed from the spot he was lying.

Zanita bent down and took his cheeks in her hand. "Harry. I think that the magical field that has been placed over the lake is keeping four people sleeping. they are the four people that you four champions had to find. And the other thing is that I can't find Minerva anywhere in the castle".

Harry crawled back to his feet and pulled on his clothes as he started to make his way to the door. His thoughts were all over the place as was calling for his grandmother and the things he had to do. ^Get to the lake, Grandmother are you there. Get Gillyweed and Grandmother are you there, say something. Who was the blubbering fool that thought it was a good idea to leave four people at the bottom of the lake for more than an hour with only a magical field to protect them? GRANDMOTHER SAY SOMETHING^.

Bella and Harry were hearing the thoughts he had as he was almost screaming in his mind for his grandmother. Behind his back, they were sending everyone to get everything he was thinking of as he walked through the common room. Neville was getting the Gillyweed but as he took one piece he thought about it and grabbed the whole bag because whatever it was Harry was thinking one piece might not be enough.

Zanita who was also starting to hear him clearly. was looking in Awa at the way Daphne and Bella were responding to the thinks Harry was thinking. It was a thing she had talked about with Minerva and Poppy. Poppy had told her that it was because of the spell Lily had placed on her bloodline. Zanita could hear him because of the blood he shared when they gave her a body. For Daphne and Bella, it was another story according to her. They got it because of the contract. The one thing she didn't know was that both Bella and Daphne had shared their blood with him the day he ended up in St Mungo.

Zanita shook her head of the thoughts she had and followed the Look Daphne had when she walked through the great hall. She had missed something when she was lost in her own thoughts. because she didn't realize that she had followed Daphne all the way to the great hall. As she followed the look she could see what Daphne had been looking at. At the Slytherin table, one Pansy Parkinson was missing. just like Cho Chang was missing from the Ravenclaw table.

Harry who had rushed after her was also looking from table to table. Then he turned his eye to Bella and Daphne he said. "Pansy and Cho aren't here. Susan is behind us so I do not know who they have picked for Fleur but I will bet Albus placed my grandmother on the bottom of the lake. So it is not a thing but a hostage. Pansy for Victor, Cho for Cedrick and Grandmother for me".

Together they looked at the head table and saw Albus sitting there with the others like there was nothing going on. Something snapped in Harry when he saw it and the first thing he did was huddle with his friends.

How he had figured out she could hear him she never knew but the moment he looked at her he asked. ^The magical field that has been placed around the lake is keeping people in a dream state right^. The only thing she could do was nod. ^You are sure that it is failing again^ Zanita nodded as she gazed into his eyes. ^Does it mean that any one of them could wake up at any moment while they are at the bottom^.

Both Bella and Daphne snapped there heads around as they too looked at Zanita.

The eyes of Zanita became bigger and bigger as she realized what the four people that were on the bottom of the lake would be facing if they would wake up. She couldn't nod but her look was enough for the friends. Harry said something she didn't hear and the next moment she could see all the friends starting to run in different directions. Harry ran over to the House table of Hogwarts but why she didn't know. Daphne and Bella went to the other champions as Fleur was already making her way to one of them. Hermione and Neville were running out of the great hall. Probably to see if Minerva was in her own quarters. Susan was the only one who walked to the head table. At first, she didn't know why Susan was the only one to go to the head table but as she saw her walking towards Poppy she knew.

"Zanita, make sure that the house elves make an emergency infirmary as close to the edge of the lake as they can. Also get Felix to go and get Emma and Dan Granger. I do not know why but I got a feeling we will need them here" Harry told her as he popped up on her left.

Zanita was a little startled when she heard Harry talking in her ear and had to ask herself how he had sneaked up on her like that. She was so out of her element that she could only nod again as she called for the head elf to tell him what Harry had asked of her. As she did what she had to do she started to follow Daphne again while she was feeling the magic around the lake getting worse and worse.

Not more then ten minutes later Zanita found the four champions standing together at the edge of the lake. It was clear that Fleur was the only one who really listened to Harry as he was explaining to her about Gillyweed. It was only after he told the others that the field that kept them sleeping was failing that Krum and Cedrick looked at him. "Are you sure Potter" Cedrick snapped. "Or is this again one of your ways to get attention to yourself".

Cedrick wanted to go on but was interrupted by a scream from Fleur. "MOM MA SOEUR".

Harry was a little startled when he heard her scream like that and wanted to ask what it was. He still didn't speak France so he had no way to know what she said. However, he shook his head and gave her a piece of Gillyweed just like he did the others.

Fleur took his hand and gave it right back. "Arry, I'm a being of fire. I can not use t'at in a situation like this. I will do a bubble'ead c'arm on my self, and follow you down".

Harry knew that Fleur would not be able to keep up but he nodded anyway. "Okay, I will go down and put a Bubblehead charm on all of them until you all get there and take them back up". He then took her hand and looked her in the eyes. "I will go down there and make sure the person that is your hostage will be safe until you get there".

"My Sister, Gabrielle".

^GGGHHHPPMM HARRY!^.

Harry stood completely still as he gazed into the eyes of Bella when he heard his grandmother in his mind. ^Grandmother, what is it, do you hear me^.

^Harry, I'm at the Bottom of the lake, I do not know how I got here but I have just woken up. I was ambushed somewhere in the castle. Now I do know that I'm in the lake because there is nowhere in the castle a tub big enough to keep us down. I can feel the magic that is keeping us sleeping slipping away from me. I was able to place a wandless Bubblehead charm on myself but my hands are tied behind my back so I can not do it to the others that are here if they would wake up. So get here as soon as you can^.

Harry just stood there as his mind went blank for a moment.

"Snap out of it Harry and GO GET HER," Bella said to him as she started to push him into the lake. "And you two don't just stand there and go get them. This is no longer a task but a rescue mission" she snapped at Viktor and Cedrick.

Fleur was the first to go after Harry and she placed the bubblehead charm on her self. The other two were still thinking about it when Daphne grabbed a hand full of Gillyweed and shoved it into the mouth of Cedrick as she kept it shut by covering it with hand until he swallowed. "Now get to it you asshole. This isn't a game and Albus isn't here to hold your hand" And she pushed him into the lake head first.

Viktor wanted to protest but when he saw Zanita stepping up to him he swallowed the Gillyweed and almost ran into the lake.

Bella turned around and looked into the eyes of Albus while her wand slipped into her hand but it was kept down by Daphne.

ALBUS

It was the day of the second task and he had just got out of bed. It had been a real hassle to find something to put at the bottom of the lake. At first, they thought they would have placed some boxes for them to get back. But as they thought about it they weren't sure if the Champions would give it them all if they did. So it was just before the ball they had decided to use people instead of boxes.

The problem of who to use was quickly made. they would just use the dates they had. The problem with that was only who to get for Harry. Albus knew that he could get Minerva while Madam Maxime would get someone for Fleur. They had thought about getting Susan as her hostage but that would bring Amelia down on him and that was something he didn't want.

Madam Maxime had said that it wouldn't be a problem if He would guarantee that the Hostage would be alright. Albus knew he could never do that but that was something she didn't need to know. His problem had to be to find someone for Harry. When he saw Minerva walking by last night he knew it and put her down with a well placed Stupefy in her back. So it was later that night he placed the four Hostages into the lake and set up the runes so they would be kept asleep. Mad-eye would place the four rune stones, one at each side of the lake and the task was ready to begin.

Now, however, it was time for breakfast so he strolled into the Great hall He could see that Cedrick wasn't really looking for Cho. It gave him a weird feeling, not one of Cedrick doesn't have feelings for Cho. No, the weird feeling was more about the thought if he had made the right choice in Cho. He wanted him to go for it to win the Cup for Hogwarts. Then again there was nothing to do about it now. So he sat down at the head table. At first, he wanted to go to the throne-like chair that stood in the middle, but the moment he sat down he was lifted up and slammed into a chair a little further away. He gave a deep sigh and started to fill his plate.

With a look to the side, he saw no Minerva and had to smile a little. He didn't know how Harry would react to it, but he was sure that he was going to love it. It was not long after his first bite that Daphne walked into the great hall. She was followed by Zanita and he knew that the show had started. When the others walked in he got a frown on his face.

He expected Harry to go crazy on him and that would be a joy to read back in the papers. However, Harry didn't do anything and just started to walk to the Hogwarts table. As he looked on he saw some walking to the other champions and Fleur was making her way to them. The only one who was coming in his direction was Susan. That was the one person he didn't want to see because she was too much like her aunt. He gave a deep sigh when she walked by him but when she stopped by Poppy he got his frown back. He looked on and saw them all leave.

The thing that was happening was something he didn't understand because he really thought that Harry would go right for him and that would make him out to be the bad guy and the next dark lord in the making, but Harry didn't and just walked out of the great hall. So after ten minutes, he shook his head and started to follow the others out of the great hall.

Something was happening outside and he wanted to know what it was. The thing he saw made him furious and he had to ask. "Miss Figg, Would you be so kind enough to tell me what Harry is thinking about and why he is already in the lake Because I know that the second task will start in two hours".

Bella turned around and looked into the eyes of Albus while her wand slipped into her hand but was kept down by Daphne. She gave a big sigh as she shook her head and started to walk to the edge of the lake. She sat down with Gillyweed in her hand waiting for Harry to call her if he needed her.

"Miss Figg" Albus called again only this time he did not keep the anger from his voice as he said it. "I want an answer right now because what he is doing is not right and you know it".

Bella gazed up at Albus and let her head hang down while Daphne gave him a dirty look as she placed her own arm around the shoulder of Bella. A feeling that Bella remembered of a time when her Sister did it just before a meeting with Voldemort. The eyes of Bella became big when she remembered that little thing but shook her head because Grandmother Mini was the main thing right now".

Albus was really starting to get mad when he snapped. "That will be fifty points for Hous Hogwarts for disrespecting the Headmaster".

^Grandmother, we are on our way. Fleur is right behind me and so are Viktor and Cadrick. I don't think they wanted to but I'm sure the others made them. So hold on we are coming^.

^Okay Harry, but hurry up. I can see that the others are getting restless and it won't be long until they too, start to wake up^.

Both Bella and Daphne looked at the lake and were slowly turning white by the idea that the others would wake up before he would be there. Zanita who had also heard it stepped behind them and placed her arms over their shoulders. "He will get there, I know he will. He is Lord Hogwarts".

Albus really had enough as he looked at the three of them. "I want to know why Harry is in the lake, I also want to know why he took the other champions with him, AND I WANT TO KNOW IT NOW". Albus shouted the last part.

"If you would keep that thing you call a mouth closed for a couple of seconds the friends could tell you," Amelia said from behind him.

Albus turned around with his wand in his hand and a look of hate in his eyes as he gazed up at Amelia who was standing behind him.

Amelia just raised one eyebrow as she looked back him, almost daring him to fire off a spell so she could bring his wrinkly old ass down. "If I was informed correctly, then the field around the lake is starting to fail and the people that are down there will be waking up very soon".

^Grandmother, hang on we are almost there^ Harry, said in his mind.

^It is okay Harry, they are still asleep. the magic has increased a little but I do not know for how long so hurry, but be carfull^ Minerva, thought back.

Albus was becoming more and more agitated at the lack of respect he was shown. "Madam Bones, I can assure you that the field is solid. I placed it there my self. I even carved the runestones myself to make it as save as possible. Look I prove it to you" and Albus waved his wand from left to right as he said a monitoring spell. He swallowed hard and the colour drained from his face. "That is not Possible. I placed it myself. It has to work".

David Greengrass who had worked his way through the crowd that had gathered around Albus spoke up in a way no one ever thought he was capable of. "Don't just stand there you old fool. Get the people back up. They are in danger and you know it. So do it now or I will take you to the Witangemot for the murder of four people and even for the endangerment of the champions". He told Albus in a way that made most people back up from him.

"I can't, I will need the help from the Merpeople to do that. And they are all down there to keep an eye on the people I put to sleep. They will bring them up as soon as the hour is over".

"What if they wake up before the hour is up," Amelia asked again as she placed her nose between two fingers in frustration.

That little colour that was left in the face of Albus left him completely. "They will surely bring them up when they are awake I assure you".

"It is ten minutes from the Bottom to the top of the lake you old farted fool" Augusta snapped from his side. "There is no way they still be alive before they reach the top".

"Who is the person for my daughter" Jean Delacours asked from the other side as he kept his arm on his crying wife.

"Jean I can't find Gabrielle anywhere" Apolline whispered from his side.

It was now that Amelia rose herself up in her full height as she japed her finger in the chest of Albus backing him up to the edge of the lake. "I will make it clear Albus. If anyone of those people gets injured I will personally do everything I can to get you a judgement for every crime you have done here. And not only you but everyone who had helped plan this sick task. I also know that you will stonewall me at every angle but I will not rest until I can personally throw you through the Veil".

Albus was gazing around for any kind of help when he saw nothing he said. "It were the schools and the ministries from the countries that gave the all clear for the task".

"We never decided to use people like the things the champions had to find. It was made clear to all of us that each champion had to find a box with their name on it. In that box would be something that would help them in the final task" Jean snapped. "And for the fifth time who is the person my daughter has to save from the bottom".

^Harry, you have to hurry up now. Pancy is really starting to trash around and can wake up at any moment. I think I'm close enough to place a Bubblehead charm on her but I 'm not sure. She is also the only one close enough for me to possibly do it^.

"Pancy is about to wake up" Bella shouted over all the screaming that the adults were doing.

Albus took that opportunity to sneak away from the adults as they all turned to Bella to see if she would say something else. The sad part for him, however, was that he walked straight into the chest of Jean Delacour. "Now you tell me, who is the hostage of my Daughter" Jean screamed in his face.

Albus looked away as he mumbled in a very hushed way "Gabrielle".

The eyes of Apolline became very big and she rushed past her husband as she ran straight into the lake. she made her way through the water and was stopped by Bella and Daphne just before she could dive in. Jean stepped behind them and took a hold of his wife so Bella and Daphne could start to push her back. "Come, dear, we have to trust Harry and Fleur to get them out of there," he said in a soft way as he gave a dirty look at Albus.

^Grandmother I can see you, I'll be there in a moment and will place a bubblehead charm on all of them before I free you^.

"Harry is almost there" Bella screamed as Jean placed Apolline in the waiting arms of Poppy.

What followed was a couple of minutes of compleat silence as they all looked at the lake wondering what was happening at the bottom. The only one who wasn't looking at the lake was Albus. He was looking at Bella and wondering how it was that she could hear Harry.

"Harry has reached Pancy and he has placed a Bubblehead charm on her. She had just woken up so he was right on time. He is doing the same thing to Cho and Gabrielle" Bella said as she looked into the begging eyes of Apolline.

Most of the people who were standing around Bella and the friends gave a sigh of relieve and started to look at the surface of the lake as the made their way back to the stands that were placed there for them to see the task.

Narcissa who had been standing a couple of meters away from the friends had heard little pieces of the things the adults were screaming at each other. The one thing she wanted to do the most was to rush to her little sister and help her in any way she could. Yet she was at the side of Lucius and had to be the trophy wife he thought she was. And the only thing she could do now was to nod at every despicable word he was saying over and over again.

"I hope that Potter brat drowns while he is down there. Same for that Veela tramp and that old retarded grandmother of his".

The more he said the more Narcissa wanted to lash out at him. The one thing she wanted to do more than to help her sister was to strangle that low life of a husband of hers. Still, she had to keep up appearances and just nodded as she herself mumbled that he was right and that she wanted to be free of all the influence. Narcissa said it with a little-forced smile, but she really hoped that Harry would make it back because her fate, as well as the fate of others, were in his hands. If he would die she would again be the slave of Lucius just like Daphne would be the one for her Draco. As she gazed around her self she could see a lot of reporters sitting in the stands all huddled together in a spot. As her gaze went further down the stands she hoped that one of the adults had seen it too because it would be a good way to get back at Albus without taking drastic measures. It would not help to stop Rita from reporting her version of the truth but it will make all the other reporters look at it in another way.

"Harry has Grandmother Mini by the hand. The others are also there and they will bring them all back up. It won't be long now. We only have to hope they do not get in any trouble on their way back" Bella screamed again as a small smile crossed over her face.

All the eyes turned to Bella as they were followed by screams of joy.

David who had started to relax a little gazed back and his eyes crossed the eyes of Narcissa. As he gave her a small smile he could see her eyes snap to the stands and back to him. As he gazed to the side he saw the reporters and knew what he had to do.

"Harry is almost at the surface. Fleur was the last down and he had to wait for her. She is following him back. still, she will be a little slower only five minutes and we will see him. He will be the first to come up". This time it was Daphne who had screamed it.

David knew that if he wanted to do something he had to do it now or he would be too late. Still, if he did it, it would not have the same impact as if someone else would do it. So with pull of his hand, he turned Zanita to him and whispered into her ear.

At first instance, Zanita was made and brought her hand up to blast him away. But the moment she heard him whispering she knew it and gave a sharp nod. With a look to the left, she could see that the house elves were almost finished and that Poppy was taking care of the wet girls and Apolline. So with a finger placed on the side of her throat, she said. "People, I know that it is a little frustrating to see all that is happening but let me explain it to you all".

Albus stepped forward and wanted to interfere but with a snap of her fingers, he was placed in a chair with his mouth closed by some ducktape.

"There were four people placed at the bottom of the lake by Albus and the Triwizard comity. They were held in a dreamless sleep by a charm that is placed on a rune stone. Something went terribly wrong and the magical field is failing. Now it was told to us that Albus had placed that field himself". And Zanita could see the fear in the look of Albus as he was placed on the base of all the trouble that was happening now. "He is mostly responsible for all the trouble we are in but also the others who were responsible for the tasks like our own minister of Magic one Cornelius Fudge. However, At this moment the task has become a rescue mission by the champions. Anyone of the hostages could have woken up at any moment and that would have meant they would have drowned on the spot. They were in time to get them and are making their way back. Yet the danger is only over the moment we get them here until that time we wait for the real heroes and that are our champions all four of them". Zanita gave another look at Albus and wanted to walk away before she realized something. "Before you are all going to ask questions of why Albus and the others didn't get them out after they found out that there was something wrong. Well, we asked them about it and they told us there was nothing they could do until the task was over and done". She now gave a dirty smile at Albus and walked back to the friends.

"There is Harry" Hermione shouted as she saw the head of Minerva coming out of the water.

Everyone was looking at the way Harry was swimming with his grandmother to the side. There were. However, three people among them who could literally hear the conversation the two of them had in their minds.

^The others are also on their way back. I think it will take them a couple of minutes longer^ Harry told his grandmother.

^I know Harry, However, I'm a little worried about Fleur and her sister".

As the three of them were listing Zanita whispered to Bella and Daphne that thing Minerva was worried about. "She is right you know. If it were up to me I would tell Harry to go back for her".

Both Bella and Daphne looked at her and were clearly asking why.

Zanita was still looking at Harry as she saw how Minerva was explaining the same thing. This time, however, they were not able to listen to what they were saying. Minerva could block out the three of them and Zanita knew that she did it so Bella and Daphne would not be mad at Harry when he would dive back under, but also to give Minerva the time to explain it all to the both of them herself. "Well, she has to send Harry back to help the veela's inside of them. Both of them are a mix of human and Veela. Meaning that they are also half made out of fire. According to legend, a Veela was born when a Fenix merged himself with his familiar a witch. The witch was dying and he saved her by giving his lifeforce to her. The witch was saved but every child that came from her was born Veela. Felix has told me that story and he also told me that because they are creatures of fire they are at there worsed when they are underwater. So Fleur is closer to being a Muggle than to be a witch when she is underwater".

Bella got little tears in her eyes when she knew what Harry was about to do. She knew she could not stop him because that was the way he was and she loved him because of it but it also told her that she just had to worry a little longer.

^Harry, go, go now. I will make it to the edge by myself. I will have Bella, Daphne, Zanita and Poppy to help me get out^.

^Okay Grandmother, Tell me when you are with Poppy and tell Bella I will be carfull^.

It was clear that no one understood what was happening when Harry went back underwater. Only Bella and Daphne were walking away because they went to help Minerva out of the water.

Minerva was almost at the edge and saw that Bella and Daphne were already walking into the water to help her out of it. She knew that they had heard her and that that was why they came to her. The thing that brought a little smile to her face was that Zanita had walked over to the Delacours to get them to stand with them.

Everyone was waiting for Harry to get back up but he didn't. The first to get to the surface was Viktor who dragged Pancy behind him with one arm like a sack of potatoes. Ten minutes after Victor had come up, Cedrick came out of the water. They were both helped to the side like real Heroes while Minerva was left standing at the edge just waiting for her grandson to come back up.

As time went on the spectators were waiting for Harry to get back. In the meantime, Albus and Karkaroff were standing with Victor and Cedrick while Rita was asking them about the heroic thing they had just done.

"POPPY WE NEED YOU, AND WE NEED YOU NOW".
