Hogwarts Express: Time Travel

LX. Lost him

LX. Lost him

The moment Cedric and Annie's hands met the cup WHOOSH! The ground beneath their feet lurches, the sky shudders; spinning independent of the earth. A wind rises in a howl and Annie squints, everything becoming blur until, she and Cedric land heavily in a misty graveyard. The cup flies free, skittering over the chill ground as the sky rotates slowly into a stop.

Whispers and murmurs broke free in the great hall each asking about what was happening and if this was a part of the task

"What's happening?" asked Amos having bad feeling about this

"Is that supposed to happen? Is it a part of the task?" asked a confused Sirius

"Clearly not Dumbledore didn't mention any of this, he said the moment one of the champions touches the cup they win, this doesn't give off winning vibe" his brother explained, a lot agreed with him. Something was just not right

"Is it just me or this place is spooky, I don't feel so good, I really have a bad feeling about this" Molly whispered holding her husband's hand for support

"Annie baby, the cup is a Portkey, use it and leave, just leave" Lily encouraged even if she knew nothing was about to change

"Guys I dunno if you noticed but this is the same graveyard we've seen at the beginning of the movie if you remember" Ted remarked making the students and few of the teachers gasp in realization, he was right it was the same graveyard

"What is happening, why in Godric's name are they in there?" McGonagall gasped shocked recognizing the names on the tombstones.

"I think they should leave" Narcissa choked out, Bella and Rodolphus looked at each other, uneasiness coating their faces as they held onto each other's hands not knowing what was going to happen.

Amelia and Alastor were too engrossed in the movie to even say a word, Dumbledore was too. Lily and James looked at their daughter in panic pleading with their eyes but she refused to look their way because she knew her face would give out how she was feeling at that moment

"We can all agree that, someone enchanted the cup" Rabastan pointed out

Cedric: [Inspecting the cup fascinated] It' s a Portkey. The Cup is a... [Stopping as he head Annie's frantic mumbles and turning to her]

Annie: I've been here.... In a dream. I've been here....

"It's like we thought it's really is the same place, not good, not good"

"My boy" Amos gasps "Get out of there, you two"

Cedric: [As he studied her afraid figure and contorted face, walking over to her and grabbing her] Annie ea-

Before he could coax her into calming down a loud HISS echoes around them, letting her go and looking around to inspect the source, he spies at just a few yards away a large stone cauldron that sputters, As Cedric approaches it much to Annie's dismay, she moves behind him as well, she looks behind the cauldron and read a headstone, the name engraved: Tom Riddle

"Bloody hell, oh for merlin's sake get out of there" Narcissa shouted

"Leave just leave"

Orion and Cygnus shared a knowing look, they could tell something awful was about to go down, it didn't take a genius to figure that out, but the name that was a bad omen in itself. Walburga watched the movie too interested to cast her eyes elsewhere.

Annie: [Stopping cold in her steps, fear washing over her face, she turns to Cedric pleadingly] Cedric. Get back to the Cup. Now.

Cedric: [Confused by her sudden change] What are you talking-
