Delia's POV-
We went on with the dueling club, but the whole Harry and snake thing didn't really subside. "How about Diggory and Granger," Lockhart said.
"NO," we both said. "Alright then," he said, "Diggory and well I don't know anyone else in your grade," Lockhart said. "I'm fine with going with someone older," I said.
He looked at me, "Good idea see how you can defend yourself against someone older," he said then looked around, "How about Diggory," he said.
"No," I said, "I'm not going against my brother." He huffed, "Well fine then Weasley," he said. "Which one," All the Weasley asked.
"Um," he said, "You there," he said pointing to one of the twins. "Which one of us?" They asked smiling. Everyone laughed, "How about Fred," I whispered to Lockhart. He nodded, "Fred."
I walked up and stood there, by the steps beside Lockhart, while Fred walked towards the other side, "Come on Freddie she's a 2nd year you got this," George said. He nodded his head, and walked towards the center.
"Hello Fred," I said holding my wand to my face. "Delia," he said but I could see him smiling. I shot my wand to my side and bowed, then turned and walked 5 steps, and turned back around.
I held my wand out in front of me, "Disarm only," Lockhart said, "One, two, three." "Expelliamus," I said and Fred's wand shot over to me. I caught it and smiled, "Good job Miss Diggory," Lockhart said smiling, "Well done, well done, 20 points to Gryffindor."
Everyone cheered and I was laughing at Fred's face, "How?" He asked looking around. I walked over and handed him his wand, "I think this is yours" I said handing him his wand. "Who would like to go against Diggory?" Lockhart asked.
I thought to myself, 'Why do I have stay?' But that was kind of fun, "I'll go," George said, "Don't worry Freddie I'll get your dignity back." I smiled as George walked up.
I walked to the middle and put my wand in my face, "George," I said smiling and putting my wand to my side. "Delia," he said smiling back. I turned and walked 5 steps then turned back around, and held my wand out.
"One, two, three," Lockhart said. "Expelliamus," George said, but I ducked down, "Expelliamus," I said and his wand flew out of his hand and into mine. "Good job," Lockhart said, "Five pointes to Gryffindor, for Mr. Weasley's effort."
I smiled and handed George his wand, "Next," Lockhart said. "I'll go," a girl's voice said and I saw Pansy Parkinson walk up. I looked at Lockhart and saw he was just looking at her, "Alright."
I walked up and put my wand in my face, "Your going down Diggory," she said. "We'll see about that Parkinson," I said then turned and walked 5 steps then turned around. "Disarm only," Lockhart said.
"One, Two," but just like Malfoy did, before he could say three, she did the same spell Malfoy did, "Everte Statum." I felt the spell hit me, and was flipped through the air, but unlike Harry I didn't land on my side, but instead my feet, good thing I did gymnastics for a while, I thought.
"Stupefy," I said and she went flying threw the air and landed on her back. "Incarceous," she said, but I ducked down and instead of me getting tied with ropes, Lockhart did.
Next she said a spell we wasn't even supposed to know and she did correctly, "Fiendfyre." A jet of fire came from her wand and towards me. "Aqua Eructo," I said and a jet of water came out.
They collided mid way and the fire didn't go away it stayed there, I saw the fire come forward, and could feel the heat, then my known wand hand got burnt, I almost cried, but I pushed my wand forward and the water erupted and knocked Pansy down soaking her.
She stood up, "Expelliamus," I yelled and her wand flew towards me. I caught it then dropped down onto my knees and held my burnt hand, "Delia," Cedric said coming beside me. "What the hell," Cedric said standing up and walking towards Pansy, "you almost burnt my sister alive."
Lockhart finally escaped and was furious, "Miss Diggory are you alright?" He asked. "No," I said, "My hands burnt," I said holding out my hand and it was already forming blisters and was fire red and bleeding.
Lockhart and everyone gasped then I felt people come around me, "Delia are you alright?" Hermione asked kneeling beside me. I was still holding in my tears, but then pain went through it and I screamed, "Delia," Harry said.
I felt some more pain, "Someone go get Madam Pomfrey," I heard Fred and or George yell. I could hear Cedric still yelling at Pansy, "50 points from Slytherin," I heard McGonagall say.
Wait, McGonagall what's she doing here, I suddenly felt really hot and dizzy, then I felt myself being picked up, then everything went black.

Harry's POV-
I ran with everyone even Hufflepuff's, and Ravenclaws, to the Hospital Wing. Delia had passed out once Fred picked her up and I don't why, but I felt jealous.
We got to the Hospital Wing and Madam Pomfrey had gasped then, "Lay her down right here," she said pointing to the bed I had been in.
Fred laid her down, "She's burning up," Pomfrey said. Then laid a wet washcloth over her forehead, then she went to her hand, "What happened?" She asked.
"The dueling club," Ron said. "Pansy Parkinson had cast the Fiendfyre charm and had burnt her hand," Hermione said, "but Delia used the Aqua Eructo charm," Hermione said.
"She's lucky it was only her hand," A calm voice said and I turned around to see Dumbledore with her parents.
"Oh my," her mother said coming over to her. I looked at her then to Delia and saw how much they looked alike, "What happened?" She asked me.
"There was this dueling club we had and she went against a Slytherin and the Slytherin used the Fiendfyre Charm while Delia used the Aqua Eructo," Hermione said.
Her mum rubbed her head, "At least it was only her hand," she said. "She was really good at it," Hermione said. "Yea she got me out the first try," Fred said. "Me to," George said.
Her mum smiled, "Thank you all," she said. "What do you mean?" Hermione asked. "For being there for her," she said, then looked around, "You guys are the Weasley's aren't you?" She asked Ron, Fred and George.
They nodded, but only reluctantly, she smiled, "No need to be worried," she said, "You remind me of some friends I had at school," she said then frowned at what seemed to be the memory of it.
"You two are the one's who get into trouble a lot aren't you?" She asked Fred and George and they smiled and nodded, "Delia has told me about you two."
"You must be Hermione Granger?" She asked Hermione. "Yes," she said. " And Ron," she said. He nodded as well, She looked at me and smiled, "You look a lot like your father Harry, but you have your mother's eyes," she said.
I smiled at her, "Mum you can stop interrogating my friends," Delia said opening her eyes and sitting up. "I wasn't interrogating them," her mother said smiling. "Sure did sound like it," Delia said, then her eyes went wide, "Where's Cedric is he still yelling at Pansy?"
"I'm right here Delia," he said coming over beside their mother. "You know I had handled it Cedric, you didn't have to yell at her," she said. "Cedric," their mother said, "You don't yell at ladies it's not nice."
I laughed, "I know mother," he said. "Is father still mad at me?" Delia asked. "Yes," she said, "but he's alright with it now."
"Rose would you like some tea?" Dumbledore asked. "Yes thank you," she said kissing Delia's head then stood up and kissed Cedric's, then followed Dumbledore out.
"Please quiet staring at my mother," she said, and everyone kind of just turned around. "This might hurt Miss Diggory," Pomfrey said coming over.
She nodded her head, while Madam Pomfrey took her wand out, and waved it over her hand and something green came out of it.
Delia grabbed my hand and squeezed it, then Pomfrey put her wand up and wrapped Delia's hand up, "Your free to go," she said. Delia nodded her head and got up.
But unfourtantly class wasn't over so we had to go back, and watch everyone and see everyone's eyes still on me or people looking my way and then turning around when I looked at them.
