Elder Blood Witcher 450 In A Pickle.

They weren't all that big but if compared to regular insects they are huge. 6-8 inches long and smelled like rotten fish and sulfur. They number around 10 to 20 and Harry was sure they'd be relatively easy to get past. "Aquamenti" he mutters as he casts the water making spell, it comes out like a garden hose and the creatures shriek and chitter at him for soaking them. They retreat backwards but it doesn't do all that much to help him progress as the path is still blocked...

Sighing to himself he decides that the only way around was through them and while he hated to kill thing it was needed. "Reducto!" he exclaims as a bolt leaves his wand and eviscerates one of the insects.

The rest of them shriek at the loss of one of their own and start scuttling towards him, Harry backs away but is tripped by a branch from the Hedges that'd tangled around his foot while he contemplated what to do with the insects.

He starts to panic as they approach and fires a few more Reducto's, some miss while others. .h.i.t however the rest keep coming. Sparks shoot from them as they begin to bite his legs. His trousers provide some resistance but it still hurts to get bitten, he blasts another as it's tail comes forward to sting him however they are almost on top of him now, as a last ditch attempt he casts "Expulsio!" at the one furthest away, causing it to implode and catch the others in an explosion which launches Harry a couple meters away.

He tumbles and rolls before finally coming to a stop, he's covered in blood from the dead insects but quickly gets to his feet as he feels the Hedge try and tangle him in it's roots. He flinches slightly as he feels his leg is injured, maybe even broken but is halted as a path opens up in-front of him... At the end of it is a gleaming Cup, the Tri-Wizard tournament cup. He limps towards it absentmindedly not bothering to think about how suspicious it is that the Hedge itself is giving him an easy route to victory, no. Instead his will to win trumps him rational mind, he doesn't even think about whether or not the events up until now could have been leading to this point... He grabs the cup and disappears, the Observers feed turning black as it follows him.

The audience shouts in excitement as they see Harry disappear, thinking that he'd won and that his disappearance was planned... Dumbledore pales when he sees his student vanish and not appearing in the middle of the stadium where he was supposed to... He looks at the Observer feed and sees that it's currently pitch black.

Ciri and Fleur step out of the Hedge, the Observers still following them and projecting their feed. They glance around at the cheering crowd, worrying about Harry. Suddenly Harry's feed comes back to life revealing the eerie sight of a graveyard, the sky is dark and fog is thick in the air. Red eyes peer from the darkness at him as ropes wrap around him of their own accord, his wand drops to the floor as he falls onto his back.

Harry raises his head and sees one of the people he hates the most, Peter Pettigrew. The man points his wand at Harry and levitates him up to a statue who's arms grab ahold of the boy tightly, restricting his movement completely.

Harry "You! I should have killed you when I had the chance!" he shouts furiously.

Peter smiles at him, his rat-like teeth protruding from his mouth. "Harry, how are you? Well I hope? My master has been waiting for this moment for a long time." he says.

Harry struggles against his restrains to no avail, "I hate you! When I get out I'll kill you myself!" he screams.

Peter turns towards where the invisible Observer is floating and grins, "They will watch my as master kills you Harry."

The audience is completely silent, no one knows how to react to the sudden turn of events, Hermione watches on tearfully as Harry screams at the man responsible for the deaths of his parents.

The Auror's are scrambling to try and find their location however they seem to be having no luck as the land has been made unplottable. A few apparate out to go alert Amelia Bones while other increase the security around Hogwarts itself, for fear of a terrorist attack attempting to kill the people present at the event or even the Minister himself.

Fudge "I-is that Peter Pettigrew?" he stutters out.

Severus Snape whos standing nearby smirks, "The very man who you granted an order of Merlin." he snarks. However Fudge is too shocked to reply.

Fleur watches on with a frown on her face and doesn't notice the dark shadows stealthily moving in the surroundings. However, that doesn't mean that Ciri hadn't. She leaves without anyone noticing, in-fact, no one had even noticed that Reima had disappeared as well.
