The Maze

Cross was standing in the halls of Hogwarts, waiting for Fleur. Luna was wearing his hoodie but this time she was wearing her clothes underneath, she currently wasn't happy. Cross was about to leave when Fleur showed up, Cross walked over and his hand glowed green, he slapped Fleur in the head and walked away saying "Done."

Fleur blushed and said "That's it?" Cross said "Your information is not that valuable.." as he disappeared with Luna, leaving Fleur squirming in the hallway, she cursed and rushed to the bathroom.

Cross walked to the maze with Luna, who hugged his arm and said "Good luck!" Cross smiled and puffed his chest as he said "Don't worry I will win! 100%" Luna smirked and said "En. Acting so early in the morning?"

Cross coughed and said "This is self confidence!" Luna giggled and leaned her head on his shoulder as they walked to the final task together.

A while later

Cross kissed Luna and sent her to the stands before walking forward with the other 3 towards a platform as the band started playing music.

Dumbledore stood on the podium and said "Earlier today, Professor Moody placed the Triwizard cup deep within the maze. Only he knows it's position. Now as Mr. Greengrass" the crowd cheered wildly, Dumbledore continued "Is First, he shall get a head start! Followed by Mr. Potter, Mr. Krum, and finally Ms. Delacour!" the crowd cheered again.

Dumbledore raised his hand and said "The first to touch the cup will be the winner! Now, I've set up staff to patrol the perimeter. If at any point the contestants want to withdraw from the task, he or she will only need to send up red sparks with their wands. Contestants, gather round."

The 4 contestants circled around Dumbledore as he said "In the maze, you will not face dragons or creatures of the deep.. Instead you'll face something even more challenging. You see, people change in the maze. Oh, find the cup if you can, but be very wary, you may just lose yourself along the way.."

He stepped back and shouted "Champions! Prepare yourselves!" Cross looked at Dumbledore deeply before walking to his starting position. Dumbledore said "On the count of three y-" the cannon went off and Dumbledore looked at Filtch with a tired expression.

Filtch just shrugged and Cross walked into the maze, without a care in the world.

A while later

Cross was still walking at a leisurely pace as he heard terrified screams around the maze. Cross hummed a song and the maze bushes gently brushed against his face, he smiled and touched the bushes softly.

The maze was a living plant, and an old one at that. Very strange thing these maze plants. They start out as a small bush and after years and years they grow into their own mazes, each and every one of them truly unique.

Cross wanted to take a seedling but unfortunately the maze said that it didn't have any left, they all flew away to plant themselves. Cross felt it was a pity but not to matter, he kept walking forgetting about owning a gigantic maze of his own.

Cross continued to walk around the maze, not really looking for the cup. He was more interested in the actual maze itself, he wondered how old it was, must have been at least 1000 years old right? He couldn't see the size but he assumed it was massive.

As he kept walking, he saw Harry tangled up in some branches, Cross waved his hand gently and said in Elven "Not him." the branches receded and Harry was set free.

Harry got up and said "Thanks." Cross said "No problem." Harry smiled and said "Follow me." Cross thought he found something interesting and followed Harry, who was surprised the maze didn't move at all this time, it was completely calm.

The bushes actually seemed to be leading them and gently brushing against them in a docile manner.

Harry forgot about it and came into a small clearing, Cross looked and said "Oh! You found the cup! Congratulations." Harry smiled and said "Well you saved my life, so together?" Cross was surprised and said "You can just win." Harry retorted "I wouldn't be alive to win if you didn't come by."

Cross laughed and said "Fair enough." he and Harry both grabbed the Cup at the same time, before warping away, disappearing from the maze.

Cross felt the fluctuations from the cup and entered a dazed state.

The fluctuations ended and Cross landed on the ground, on his feet, while Harry fell to the ground. The cup bounced away to the side.

Harry stood up and looked around finding the place familiar, Cross blinked his eyes and a dark blue light appeared around him before receding back into his body. He felt the new element and said "Space?" he smiled happily feeling that this tournament was truly a great thing!

He got Metal and Space from a single tournament! Maybe if there were more Tournaments he could get more?

Wishful thinking.

Cross only had sudden enlightenments because of his comprehension skills, coupled with the fact that he already had an affinity with Space being an Elf and all. The true surprise should have been the Time element, but Cross had no idea just how hard what he was doing was.

For normal wizards, the normal elements were easily but for the ones Cross had, normal wizards could take years to comprehend, let alone Time and Space. Even if a normal wizard didn't need to eat or drink and meditated on Time for his entire life he might not understand it.

Therefore, Cross should be ecstatic to know both Time and Space, maybe even worship his ancestor's good luck for days without rest. But he didn't know, so he naturally wouldn't do anything.

Cross looked around and said "Hmm... A graveyard?" Harry was reading a tombstone as Cross walked in another direction, looking at all the graves, gradually distancing away from Harry.

Cross came across a gravestone for Salazar Slytherin. He was confused, was this a Hogwarts cemetery? He swiped the grave and read the carvings. He tilted his head, it was just a normal tombstone. Isn't this the part where the gravestone moves back to reveal a hidden chamber with treasures?

The book he read lied to him!

Cross clicked his tongue was held out his hand, looking at the dark blue swirling magic in his hand. He felt like this Space magic was much, much, more powerful than the magic he was using. It was almost as if the magic itself was a beast and the magic he had already was a little cat.

Cross didn't mind too much, the stronger the better. He felt like his Space magic was completely different now, like night and day. He closed his eyes and felt like he could teleport to his room in Hogwarts from wherever this was, he didn't know if that was amazing or not because he simply didn't know where he was.

By the time he walked back

He looked up and saw Harry locked into a duel with a snake looking man, dressed in a black robe.

Cross sat by the side and waited for Harry to finish, not knowing who this man was. The other death eaters saw Cross and started talking amongst each other, Cross looked over and said in surprise "Oh, the rat! You escaped?"

Peter Pettigrew was spooked, he had seen this kid before. He always gave him the chills, as if he was completely seen through from the very beginning.

Cross looked at the Death Eaters and said "Mr. Malfoy... Hmmm.." he looked at the snake-like man and thought to himself as he walked to the grave Harry was looking at before. Strangely nobody bothered him, probably not daring to without explicit orders.

Cross read the tombstone and looked at the man before saying "Tom Riddle... That makes sense.. I can't believe there is someone as stupid as yourself, still alive." the Death Eaters trembled in fear.

Harry and Voldemort were distracted and their beams flew to the side, destroying a tomb.

Harry shouted "Cross! He's Lord Voldemort! Get to the portkey!" Cross clicked his tongue and waved his hand as he said "Sleep. I'll take care of it." Harry fell asleep and Cross walked to him as he looked at Voldemort saying "Truly... A homunculus body..."

His expression turned strange as he added "Are you truly retarded? Do you enjoy being in constant pain?" Voldemort was enraged and shouted "Silence! How dare you talk to me like this, boy?! Avada Kadavra!"

Cross smiled and pointed his wand forward as he said "Avada Ultima." a dark green light burst out of his wand and collided with Voldemort's green beam. Cross said "Do you know why Horcruxes are forbidden?"

He shook his head and said "It's not because of the sacrifice required. It's because it halts the progress of the Wizard completely. You may live forever, but your progress will end at the first moment you tear your soul to make a Horcrux."

Voldemort was silent and Cross continued "Unfortunately there's no cure for this. Seeing as you can't replenish your torn soul, nor can you strengthen it anymore, you're finished. Sure you might learn new spells but your magical output will never become stronger."

Cross tilted his head and sighed "It's a pity. Judging by what I found in the chamber of secrets, you formed a Horcrux at 16, which means you've been this strong at that time. You could have become a Legendary Wizard, yet you chose this path."

Cross directed the beams to the side and said "If you don't mind me asking, why even live forever? What is your goal?" Voldemort refused to speak and Cross clicked his tongue as he continued "I bet it's 'Kill all the Muggles' right?"

Cross laughed and picked up Harry, putting him o his back as he said "You're a fool! Wasting your life for such a worthless goal." Voldemort said coldly "How is this worthless?! Wizards should be the only species! Muggles don't deserve to breath the same air as us!"

Cross had his mouth wide open as he said in shock "Are you serious!?" seeing Voldemort was dead serious, Cross burst into laughter, it was loud and mocking, before he said "Retard! That's the only word I have for you!"

Cross wiped the tears from his eyes as he said with a chuckle "With your aptitude, had you not formed a Horcrux and given up on this idiotic task, you may have been able to become a god!" thinking about it again Cross started laughing and said "You gave up on godhood to kill people without magic! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA"

Voldemort was getting angrier by the second listening to Cross' mocking laughter.

Cross waved and said "Obliviate." the Death Eaters and Peter forgot he was here, Harry forgot that Cross put him to sleep. Cross gave Voldemort a mysterious smile as he said "There are schemes going on in Hogwarts as well, you would do well to leave me out of yours. Kill Harry Potter, don't kill him. I don't care, but if you involve me.."

His tone turned as cold as ice as he said "I guarantee killing muggles will be the furthest thing from your mind." The cup flew towards him and he grabbed it, warping away with Harry. Voldemort shouted in anger and destroyed several graves.

He calmed down and snorted, he must kill that boy. Cross' name was next to Harry Potter's on his death list, he wouldn't stop until he was dead!
