Spell 002 | Harry Potter
[ He can vaguely hear everyone in the stands cheering. He knows that each school is cheering on it's champion but for some reason he makes out the Cheers for Cedric Diggory the best. He ignores the horrible sinking feeling at the sound of that name and plunges on through the maze. ]
[ He recognizes this place easily and his heart gives a horrible jolt. He's back in the maze-the maze from last June. He moves along the high hedges, keeping an eye out for anything that might attack him as his hunts-not for the Triwizard cup but the exit. He doesn't want to be here-he know how it ends and it's something he absolutely refuses to relive. He can hear something on his heels and chances a look back to see he's been running through some kind of purple mist. While his attention is snagged he trips over something and pitches to the floor. ]
[ He lands with a thud and it somehow plants an idea into his head-Cedric isn't dead yet! He's overcome with a burst of hope as he realizes that if he can just find the Hufflepuff he can warn him about the cup! Tell him it's a portkey and Voldemort won't be able to come back to power! He scrambles to his feet and holds his wand out, hissing at it. ]
Point me!
(( ooc: Spoilers - He won't find Cedric >: Also, This probably has potential to get pretty dark. At the point Harry was taken from Cedric's death was only about three months ago so yes, his dreams are still plagued by it. ))

No one deserves to die... [ He finally voices he true feelings on the matter. ] Least of all Cedric-he was innocent and kind. [ Despite the guy had been dating Cho Chang. But that seemed so insignificant now that Harry felt couldn't even begin to begrudge him for it. ]
no subject
[Primo echoes the boy's words, seriously and calmly. It's a fact, indeed, nothing wrong with it.]
But everyone dies eventually.
[Another fact, unavoidable and terrible, but still part of life. No matter how much one tries, even those with the power to change destiny are unable to change everything. Sometimes people need to die for the path of a better future to open ahead of the rest. That's why sacrifices exist.]
What would you give for the chance to make that what happened wouldn't repeat itself again? What prize would you be willing to pay so Cedric could have a chance of growing older than he was that day? How much is that wish worth to you?
no subject
But I can't change it. N-not out side of the dream, anyways.
no subject
[Even if consciously he insists on it, Primo doubts he would have found Cedric in this dream at all.]
But you're not the only creature in the universe. And what you can't do, others can do.
[If you get what he's saying, that is.]
no subject
Y-you mean to say... there are some people that can change what happened? There's a way to keep Cedric from dying?
no subject
[Though the real time for him to demonstrate if he's really smart comes next. Unlike Bernkastel, Primo's not going to allow someone to be fooled even for a second of how things work.]
Of course it's hard to know for sure, saving him here still means he can die the following day. It depends on the turns of fate and how settled that fate is, it doesn't mean it's not unbreakable, though.
But the past can't be changed. Your past won't change, no matter what. Whatever that could be done it would be enjoyed by a you that hasn't experienced this yet. An alternate reality born in a parallel world.
[At the end of it, there's no way to free the boy from the guilt or the pain. Not this one. But there are still infinite parallel worlds where this same boy hasn't gone through this yet, they could be spared of it... But that may hold no meaning for him.]
no subject
But... I could still save a version of him, then? I could make sure that-in another world this never happened? [ Does that mean, in another universe, there's a him that never lost his parents? ]
no subject
[It's a double-edged sword after all.]
On the other hand, it's not just one other world in which you could make sure that this particular event never happened. There's an infinite number of worlds, after all. And more and more keep being born with each second that passes in your life. One change, and millions and trillions versions of you wouldn't have to go through what you have.
It's both the reward and the price. If you're willing to take it.
