■■ 6. Crucio { breaking the 4th wall } mini challenge
Clutching her chest tightly and hunching over so much that her body was twisted into a tight ball, Hermione cried silently in the corner of the tent unable to believe that what had just happened had really happened. Glancing up for a moment, she was able to make out the shape of the locket sitting on the table through her blurred vision. If only he had just taken it off and waited a few more moments…then he would have realized just how thick he had been acting.
The image of Ron’s face as he stormed out of the tent and the sting of the words “You choose him” made her feel as though someone were casting Crucio on her. Her body shaking, Hermione realized that she was the one doing the casting…doing it on herself for letting him get away.
Hating seeing Hermione like this, Harry approached her and took her by the hands. Confused, Hermione followed his lead and rose to her feet. Harry then began to lead her in a dance that Hermione presumed was supposed to make her feel better.
Turning her gaze to the tent’s entrance, Hermione spoke. “This wasn’t in the book!”
