As far as she was concerned, there was nothing special about Cassidy Winters. She's simply a girl who drinks far too much coffee than she would like to admit and reads books to escape her life as an unwanted orphan. Then, when she appears in a world...

Cassidy's POV:
As we made our way to the pitch, I shook out my nerves. I needed to act like Cedric.
But how did Cedric act? How the fuck am I supposed to know?
"Ced!"
I turn around to see Cho Chang running towards me. She is shorter than me now since I am Cedric. Shit, I'm Cedric and that makes me her boyfriend-
She wrapped her arms around my neck and I didn't even know what was happening because all too quickly she kissed me.
When she pulls away she was smiling. I couldn't hep but feel the guilt run through me.
But then she said goodbye and I turned back to the champions, hoping my cheeks weren't flushed. Gods, this is weird.
Bagman turned to the crowd and made his voice loud.
I rub the nape of my neck, hoping to get rid of the guilt and nerves. I need to focus.
I don't even end up listening to his speech until I hear Cedric's name being called.
"So...on my whistle, Harry and Cedric!" Bagman said, gesturing us toward the entrance of the dark maze.
I walk up and look over at Harry, giving a small nod. I figured that would be something Cedric would do.
"Three-"
I look back toward the maze. The dark unknown. All I knew now was that I needed to get through this last task.
"Two-!"
Just get past the creatures lying within, with barred fangs and long claws; with the ability to create my darkest fears and probably injure me severely.
Easy-peasy...
"One!"
He blows his whistle loudly and I hurried into the maze. The hedges towered over me and I turned to see Harry. It was dark and sent a terrifying chill through my altered bones.
My breathing didn't become rapid like I would've expected. It was like my body knew to not panic at this moment. And thank the gods for that-
"Lumos," I hear Harry say in the shadows.
I copy him and find his face, lit only by our wands.
He raises a brow. "Phoenix, what the hell kind of plan is this?"
"W-What?" I sputter out. "What are you talking about?"
