Their waterlogged, tattered robes dragged behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On their sunken faces, an expression of disdain—directed at the thief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tommy kept attacking—he had once been an experienced Auror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately cast a Fire-Making Spell, igniting flames all around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there were too many Inferi—an endless swarm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fatigue crept over Tommy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rat clutching the golden locket no longer felt so triumphant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, an overwhelming fear seized his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His breathing became labored, and his plump frame rolled back toward the stone basin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No—it's you—it's you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rat let out a sharp scream and his body shifted back into human form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hand—missing one finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Peter Pettigrew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sheer terror gripping him was so intense that he had to fumble several times before he could even draw his wand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his eyes, John had turned into a massive black mist, swallowing him whole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene shifted back to that pitch-dark dungeon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the watchful gaze of the silver mask, he was forced to drink bottle after bottle of Veritaserum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Demon, demon—!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His scream caught Tommy's attention. The moment Tommy turned his head, an Inferius broke through the defenses and rushed in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as it was about to reach him, the Inferius was sent flying backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John, still lying on the ground, had finally regained some strength. He staggered to his feet, his face blank and numb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My lord!\" Tommy was overjoyed, tears welling in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John fought to reclaim control over his body. The effects of the potion had left him sluggish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pulled a magic crystal from his small pouch. The crystal shattered, releasing a misty energy that finally cleared his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using Dragon's gaze, he completely engulfed Peter Pettigrew. Then, with a flick of his hand, the fallen wand flew back into his grasp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stepped forward. Under Pettigrew's trembling, horrified gaze, he picked up the golden locket and slipped it into his pocket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please... I beg you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Peter Pettigrew sobbed miserably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John looked at him with cold indifference. \"I'll deal with you once I'm out of here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he cast Disarming, Cruciatus, and Stunning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two to the body, one to the head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Peter Pettigrew passed out instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Tommy was struggling to hold his ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John glanced at the countless Inferi swarming in. He clenched a Philosopher's Stone along with three magic crystals in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magic surged through him. At the tip of his wand, golden flames ignited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That single spark seemed eternal, its radiance piercing the darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Roar—!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flames expanded in an instant, transforming into a massive golden fire dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blazing dragon soared around the lake, incinerating every Inferius in its path into ashes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gubraithian fire dragon!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John raised his wand high, his robes billowing as magic burned through him at an incredible speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eternal Gubraithian fire had transformed into a blazing dragon, turning the entire lake's surface into shimmering gold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a single command, a pair of wings sprouted from John's back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seizing Peter Pettigrew, he beat his wings and soared forward, flying alongside the fire dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tommy quickly jumped into the boat. Any Inferius that dared to emerge from the water was immediately devoured by the flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon reaching the shore, before John could even speak, Tommy had already rushed to the sealed stone wall, slicing open his arm and smearing his fresh blood onto the surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The archway reappeared. Without hesitation, John tossed Peter Pettigrew over to Tommy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Glaring at the Inferi still trying to climb out, he suddenly condensed the fire dragon into a single burning point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Philosopher's Stone seared against his palm. He could feel the last bits of magic crystal energy depleting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using his final reserves of strength, John ignited the Gubraithian fire in a massive explosion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flames surged into the black lake, consuming every Inferius within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very last second before the blast, John stepped through the doorway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stone door slammed shut behind him, just as a tremendous shockwave shook the entire cavern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John staggered, nearly losing his balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tommy quickly stepped forward to support him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John shook his head, signaling that he was fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We need to get out of here, fast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he laid eyes on Peter Pettigrew, the unease in his heart intensified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could smell a conspiracy brewing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving the stone wall behind, John's badge suddenly flickered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly tapped the badge, and a holographic projection appeared—it was an emergency signal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John immediately asked, \"What happened?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daphne: \"It's Cedric.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fleur: \"In the maze, I was attacked by Krum. Cedric and Harry Potter were in the final showdown. But the winner should have poped by now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Percy: \"I've already requested Mr. Crouch to suspend the competition. They're discussing it now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John quickly pieced the situation together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something had gone wrong in the maze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took off the badge and placed it in his palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through his perception, he sensed five stars grouped together in one direction—likely Hogwarts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other two, however, were in completely different locations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir?\" Tommy tightened his grip on Peter Pettigrew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John's expression was grim. \"Call every security team member near the cave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Tommy tilted his head back and let out a wolf-like howl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seven or eight distant howls quickly responded in succession.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John focused on the two stars that were separated from the others. As his magic slightly recovered, he attempted to Apparate—\"No way?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He realized that Apparition to that location was impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That could only mean one thing—someone had activated the Sovereign's Right he had granted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing the approximate location around the stars, John released his magic so Tommy could lock onto him, then immediately Apparated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The security team members followed suit, Apparating after them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Crouch, we need to halt the competition immediately!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Percy shouted anxiously beside old Barty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Barty didn't know what had happened. He frowned deeply, but Percy gritted his teeth and whispered, \"Something's wrong inside the maze.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, old Barty couldn't sit still any longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately stood up and went to Ludo, urging him to halt the competition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ludo looked troubled—this wasn't a decision he could make alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Barty turned back to Percy and asked again, \"Are you sure, Percy?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Percy nodded firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Barty studied him for a moment before finally choosing to trust the young man he had high hopes for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, he turned and went to find the three headmasters, demanding that the competition be paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amelia noticed the commotion and frowned, watching old Barty hurriedly searching for the judges.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daphne had just finished contacting John, her face filled with anxiety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Malfoy couldn't sit still any longer. \"We should go in directly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, we'd be stopped,\" Daphne blocked him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where did Heinrich go?\" Neville asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daphne replied, \"He just left to somewhere.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fleur ran up to the stands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They saw Dumbledore listening to old Barty, then calling over the patrolling professors to investigate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Flitwick found nothing unusual, but Professor McGonagall noticed that Moody was missing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A professor had disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hagrid rushed back and reported, \"The Goblet of Fire is gone. Someone took it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it was taken, that meant a champion had been chosen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no one had emerged from the maze yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, everyone realized something was wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dumbledore immediately decided to halt the competition—they had to go in and check.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They searched the maze thoroughly and finally found something.... Moody's prosthetic leg!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dumbledore examined it carefully and said gravely, \"A specialized Portkey.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the spectators, at some point, \"Johnny Silverhand\" had made his way down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Graveyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crimson stallion grew larger and larger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Fiendfyre grew harder and harder to control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cedric shouted, \"Heinrich, you'll burn yourself out like this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leave, Cedric.\" Blood trickled from the corner of Heinrich's mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes locked onto the two people trapped within the fire, unable to escape. His wand burned in his grip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry, now freed, ran over and was equally horrified by the sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, beside the fiery stallion, a massive serpent of flame rose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It lunged, nearly biting through the stallion's neck. Heinrich couldn't hold back a mouthful of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a hoarse voice, he yelled, \"Get out of here, now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cedric gripped his wand and roared, \"I won't abandon my friends!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry clenched his wand tighter. The fire serpent was terrifying beyond belief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heinrich poured more magic into his spell. The stallion lashed out, landing a solid kick on the serpent's body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the ground ahead suddenly caved in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A figure emerged from the pit, face dark and sinister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the sight of that person, a distant wail echoed in Harry's ears—the cry of his mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Voldemort raised his wand, sending a streak of green light toward Harry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blinded by fury, Harry charged forward to meet the attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Avada Kedavra!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Expelliarmus!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Green and red lightning clashed, the energy crackling violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry had never faced an opponent this powerful before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the point of impact, the energy pushed steadily backward—toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Cedric reacted immediately, stepping in to help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Expelliarmus!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Voldemort flicked his free hand, crushing the spell midair.
