Pain

"Auror Moody, enact procedure 5-A immediately."

The man who had taught her stood there staring at her as if he needed an explanation. It was the final warning to her that something was definitely off about her long tome friend. Her wand came out and stunned him before he could move his hand. She knew she was quick but even at his age; Moody had always been able to beat her. She tied him up in magical ropes and pulled out her own badge. She tapped a series of points on her badge and then slipped it back into her robe.

It wasn't a minute later before swooshes of portkeys were heard all over the arena. As the crowds looked on, a sea of red robed Aurors made their presence known and took up defensive positions. Her two chief Aurors stepped up and asked "Orders?" after casting a glance at the stunned Moody lying on the ground.

"We have two boys in some type of situation. Unconfirmed reports place them in the vicinity of Voldemort. I suspect some dark ritual to resurrect the snake faced bastard. Team one's job is to try and locate them. Team two will remain on guard here until the situation is contained. Team two will also hold Moody in custody and not release his bindings. That is not the man who trained us."

Amelia turned to Albus and said "Headmaster, you have always had all the answers before so I'm going to assume that this was not part of the tournament. Do you have any idea where we might find our two missing champions?"

Her response was a blank look from Albus. "Rufus, the pedestal was a portkey. Call in anyone you need to and try and figure out where it went. I want teams three and four on alert to assist and to escort the students and spectators to the Great Hall until this has passed. Once they are inside, keep them there until you receive my order."

As the Aurors were in the process of following their orders, there was a loud pop and Dobby appeared one again. At his feet was an unconscious Cedric who was bleeding from multiple cuts all over his body caused by shards of stone of which some were still sticking out of him.

The Auror field healers responded quickly and were in the process of determining his condition when Poppy arrived followed by his family. Poppy waved her wand to get her own diagnosis and knelt beside him and started forcing blood replenishing potions down his throat as quickly as she could pull them out of her bag.

Cecelia stayed out of the way but asked "Poppy?"

"He's alive but barely. We'll do our best Celia. I won't give up."

One of the healers looked up after casting a diagnostic and said "He's lost too much blood and we're going to lose him if we don't get him to St. Mungos immediately. I know he is your charge Madam Pomfrey, but blood replenishers will not be enough. He's going to need real magical blood to help with this. Where are his parents?"

They stepped forward but Poppy cut them off. "Their blood will work for him but not well enough for what you want. His blood was changed at a young age."

The healer asked "Is there a better alternative close at hand?"

Poppy's eyes went to Megan as she rushed to Dobby and got down on her knees in front of him. "What happened?"

"Masters were taken to graveyard where bad wizards were waiting for them. Master Harry and Cedric protected each other until Master Cedric was hit. Master Harry made Dobby bring Master Cedric back. Dobby sorry Mistress but Dobby must return to Master. Dobby try to bring Master back soon."

Before he could leave, Amelia asked "Could you take someone with you? He can summon other Aurors to him to help Harry."

"Dobby sorry Mistress but Dobby getting tired. Dobby maybe have enough strength to save Master Harry."

Connie Hammer was thinking fast and ripped off her badge and handed it to him. "When you get there, tap the star and we'll find you. Can you do that?"

Dobby nodded his head but before he could leave, he was grabbed by Megan once again. As she knelt in front of him, she said "Bring my Harry back to me." He nodded his head, closed his eyes, and was gone again.

Poppy laid her hand on Megan's shoulder as she knelt there crying and said "Megan, Cedric needs you right now. When he made the oath to Michael, he truly became your brother due to the magic involved. He needs your blood and strength and you need to go to St. Mungos with him. He won't make it if you don't."

Megan looked up at her as if being torn in half with tears running down her face. Poppy could understand what she was feeling and said "I'll bring Harry to you as soon as he arrives."

She crawled over to Cedric and laid her hand on his arm just as the healers activated a portkey and took them away. As soon as the portkey left, Poppy turned to Cecelia and Amos. "You go straight to St. Mungos. I will be along as soon as Mr. Potter returns."
