Hogwarts Love Story Part 26

The second task has arrived!! Ahh yes, sarcasm is the language I speak wellest. My worst habit is being annoying and loud. But I'm always quiet at school..-_-"

I'm so so sorry! *chipmunk noises* - now thats sarcasm!! never can say goodbye,even though the pain and heartache seems to follow me wherever I go,though I try and try to hide my feelings,they always seem to show-

  1. What is your age?
  2. What is your gender?
  1. Hermione beamed. "I knew you could do it!". The time seemed to slip away as it had done before the first task. Two days before the task,you and Harry both started to go off food. After each day you,Harry,Hermione and Ron all retreated to the Library,to look for a way to breath under water. "Oh,this is useless",snapped Hermione,slamming shut Weird Wizarding Dilemmas. "Who on earth wants to make their nose hair grow into ringlets?" "I wouldn't mind," said Fred Weasley's voice. "Be a talking point, wouldn't it?" You all looked up. Fred and George had just emerged from behind some bookshelves. "What're you two doing here?" Ron asked. "Looking for you," said George. "McGonagall wants you, Ron. And you, Hermione." "Why?" said Hermione, looking surprised. "Dunno...she was looking a bit grim, though," said Fred. "We're supposed to take you down to her office," said George. Ron and Hermione stared at each other, and you felt your stomach drop. Was Professor McGonagall about to tell Ron and Hermione off? Perhaps she'd noticed how much they were helping you and Harry, when you ought to be working out how to do the task alone? "We'll meet you back in the common room," Hermione said as she got up to go with Ron - both of them looked very anxious. "Bring as many of these books as you can, okay?".
  2. You woke suddenly next morning. "Up!",said Ginny. "The task starts soon!". You sat up and realized you were lying on the floor. You dressed and sprinted down to the lake. Harry crashed into you. "Here",he said,pressing some slimy stuff into your hand. "Ew,Harry! Thats disgusting!",you exclaimed. "No,its Gillyweed",he said. "Dobby gave it to me,it lets you breath under water. Just eat before you go into the lake". You took it from him warily. "..Thanks..",you said suspiciously. Bagman put his wand to his neck and said "Sonorus!",and his voice boomed across the grounds. "Well, all our champions are ready for the second task, which will start on my whistle. They have precisely an hour to recover what has been taken from them. On the count of three, then. One...two...three!" You swallowed the Gillyweed and dove gracefully into the lake. It was so cold your legs started burning,but as soon as you started swimming you felt something happening. Your hands and arms looked green and ghostly,as did your feet and legs. The water was no longer icy-on the contrary,it was pleasantly cool and light. You felt as if you were flying.
  3. You had always been an amazing swimmer,but now you were almost flying in water. You glided through the water,seeing some strange creatures. You avoided their gaze,so they wouldn't attack you. You heard something in the distance. The song. You shot off in it's direction,looking for whatever the merpeople had. The merpeople had grayish skin and long, wild, dark green hair. Their eyes were yellow, as were their broken teeth, and they wore thick ropes of pebbles around their necks.
  4. You sped around a corner and a very strange sight met your eyes. A whole crowd of merpeople were floating in front of the houses that lined what looked like a mer-version of a village square. A choir of merpeople was singing in the middle, calling the champions toward them, and behind them rose a crude sort of statue; a gigantic merperson hewn from a boulder. Five people were bound tightly to the tail of the stone merperson. Ron was tied between Hermione and a tall boy,who was Cedric's friend. Kian was tied next to a little girl who looked no older than eight, whose clouds of silvery hair made you feel sure that she was Fleur Delacour's sister. All five of them appeared to be in a very deep sleep. Their heads were lolling onto their shoulders, and fine streams of bubbles kept issuing from their mouths. You grabbed a sharp stone. You swam to Kian,putting your right hand on his leg,your left hand cutting through the rope with the stone.The rope snapped and you grabbed your brother. Next you swam to Hermione. A merman,dragged you away. "I don't want her to die!",you shouted. "She will not",he said. "Go". You looked behind you and saw Harry approaching. "Don't wait",you mouthed,as you began swimming away. You swam as fast as you could,making your way to the top,bringing Kian with you. The crowd in the stands was making a great deal of noise; shouting and screaming, they all seemed to be on their feet; you had the impression that Kian was dead,but his eyes were open.
  5. Someone pulled you back up out of the water,and put a blanket around your shoulders,as well as Kian's. Cedric arrived next, with his friend. Fleur returned after him,although her sister was nowhere to be seen. Fleur had been attacked by Grindylows,and failed to get her sister. Next Krum came with Hermione. And last came Harry,with both Ron and Fleur's sister. After consulting with each other, the judges announced the score.
  6. "______ Lupin,who was first back with her hostage,used Gillyweed to great effect, returned within the hour. we therefore award her forty - three points". The crowd cheered and clapped."Fleur Delacour, though she demonstrated excellent use of the Bubble-Head Charm, was attacked by grindylows as she approached her goal, and failed to retrieve her hostage. We award her twenty-five points." "Cedric Diggory, who also used the Bubble-Head Charm, was first to return with his hostage, though he returned one minute outside the time limit of an hour." Enormous cheers from the Hufflepuffs in the crowd; you grinned at him, and he returned it."Viktor Krum used an incomplete form of Transfiguration, which was nevertheless effective, and was second to return with his hostage. We award him forty points. Harry Potter also used Gillyweed to great effect.He returned last, and well outside the time limit of an hour. Although, he returned with two hostages,not one. "Most of the judges," and here, Bagman gave Karkaroff a very nasty look, "feel that this shows moral fiber and merits full marks. However...Mr. Potter's score is forty-three points." ."The third and final task will take place at dusk on the twenty-fourth of June," continued Bagman. "The champions will be notified of what is coming precisely one month beforehand. Thank you all for your support of the champions." You and Cedric were now tied in first place. Madam Pomfrey began herding the hostages and champions back to the school.
  7. As March came, the weather became drier,but cruel winds skinned your hands and face every time you went outside. One day Harry came rushing up to you. He handed you short letter, from Sirius. "Be at stile at end of road out of Hogsmeade (past Dervish and Banges) at two o'clock on Saturday afternoon. Bring as much food as you can". "He hasn't come back to Hogsmeade?" said Ron incredulously. "It looks like it, doesn't it?" said Hermione. "I can't believe him," said Harry tensely, "if he's caught..." "Made it so far, though, hasn't he?" said Ron. "And it's not like the place is swarming with dementors anymore."
  8. On Friday, you all headed down to the dungeons for double potions. The Slytherin girls were all grouped around a magazine, called witch weekly. Pansy Parkinson let out a laugh that sounded more like a screech. "Look at this Granger- Lupin!!" She threw the magazine at hermione,who caught it and opened it. On one page was a picture of Hermione and Harry hugging, and an article about it, and on the next page was you and Cedric kissing. "I'm not reading that",you said, looking stubbornly in the other direction. Ron looked furious as did Harry and Hermione,at the on about them.
  9. You left the castle at noon the next day to find a weak silver sun shining down upon the grounds. The weather was milder than it had been all year, and by the time you arrived in Hogsmeade, all four of you had taken off your cloaks and thrown them over your shoulders. The food Sirius had told you to bring was in Harry's bag; you had sneaked a dozen chicken legs, a loaf of bread, and a flask of pumpkin juice from the lunch table. You went into Gladrags Wizardwear to buy a present for Dobby, where you had fun selecting the most lurid socks you could find, including a pair patterned with flashing gold and silver stars, and another that screamed loudly when they became too smelly. Then, at half past one, you made your way up the High Street, past Dervish and Banges, and out toward the edge of the village. You had never been in this direction before. The winding lane was leading them out into the wild countryside around Hogsmeade. The cottages were fewer here, and their gardens larger; they were walking toward the foot of the mountain in whose shadow Hogsmeade lay. Then you turned a corner and saw a stile at the end of the lane. Waiting for you, its front paws on the topmost bar, was a very large, shaggy black dog, which was carrying some newspapers in its mouth and looking very familiar...."Sirius!",you cried happily. "Hello, Sirius," said Harry when you had reached him. The black dog sniffed Harry's bag eagerly, wagged its tail once, then turned and began to trot away from them across the scrubby patch of ground that rose to meet the rocky foot of the mountain. You all climbed over the stile and followed. Sirius led you to the very foot of the mountain, where the ground was covered with boulders and rocks. It was easy for him, with his four paws, and you when you became your animagus, but Harry, Ron, and Hermione were soon out of breath. You followed Sirius higher, up onto the mountain itself. For nearly half an hour you climbed a steep, winding, and stony path, following Sirius's wagging tail, sweating in the sun. Then, at last, Sirius slipped out of sight, and when you reached the place where he had vanished, you saw a narrow fissure in the rock. You squeezed into it and found yourselves in a cool, dimly lit cave. Tethered at the end of it, one end of his rope around a large rock, was Buckbeak the hippogriff. Half gray horse, half giant eagle, Buckbeak's fierce orange eye flashed at the sight of you. All four of you bowed low to him, and after regarding you imperiously for a moment, Buckbeak bent his scaly front knees and allowed Hermione to rush forward and stroke his feathery neck. You, however, were looking at the black dog, which had just turned into your godfather. Sirius was wearing ragged gray robes; the same ones he had been wearing when he had left Azkaban. His black hair was longer than it had been when he had appeared in the fire, and it was untidy and matted once more. He looked very thin. "Chicken!" he said hoarsely after removing the old Daily Prophets from his mouth and throwing them down onto the cave floor. Harry pulled open his bag and handed over the bundle of chicken legs and bread. "Thanks," said Sirius, opening it, grabbing a drumstick, sitting down on the cave floor, and tearing off a large chunk with his teeth. "I've been living off rats mostly. Can't steal too much food from Hogsmeade; I'd draw attention to myself." ."What're you doing here, Sirius?" Harry said. "Fulfilling my duty as godfather," said Sirius, gnawing on the chicken bone in a very doglike way. "Don't worry about it, I'm pretending to be a lovable stray."
