The Epic of Leviathan (A Mutant's Ascension)

[POV Reo(Edgar)]

It might seem to be heartless but what I did with Sirius was necessary. I only saved Sirius from Azkaban because it would have put a massive hole in Dumbledore's plans… and I didn't want to babysit a kid. It was a bonus that if I told Sirius about the prophecy then he would definitely train Harry… to kill someone dark magic is not needed so he could have still trained Harry to fight but he didn't… ​​

Knowing spells and fighting or duelling are very different things, you can know all the spells in the world but you could still be defeated by a 13-year-old with fighting or duelling experience. And this was Harry's problem… he knew a lot of spells but he had no idea how to use them in battle and when to use them… fighting might be different than duelling but they still follow some common principles… in a fight you use any means necessary to defeat your enemy while in duelling, it's a competition or a fight with heavy rules implemented.

When Dora started to train Harry after Sirius asked her… she had immediately noticed the problem Harry was having. He had no fucking experience… Dora immediately informed me regarding this and I immediately started paying attention to the duo even though it would seem that I didn't care… I quickly found out that Harry's lack of experience was because of Sirius.

It was quite clear to me that even after I have told Sirius about the prophecy he had other ideas… so, I had to play the bad guy to get Sirius in the line. Its obvious that even if he had trained Harry I wouldn't have told him my plans but I surely would have taken a different path than this one… a smile graced my face when I noticed Sirius and Harry enter the Ravenclaw common room… there was a chance that Harry would decide to run away but I was quite sure that he would decide to stay and fight. Sirius and Harry coming here gave me the answer I needed…

"Harry… Sirius, its good to see you. Since you both have decided to visit me yourself… I think you have made a decision?" I asked the duo to which both Harry and Sirius nodded their heads.

"Yes… but can we talk somewhere else… someplace with less people" Harry spoke looking around the room. All the students in the common room were staring towards us… can't a guy chat with some people in leisure? The whole school is filled with fucking gossipers…

Room of Requirement was a private place and Rumi was already there training, so Harry and Sirius led me to the classroom where Harry trained with Dora. I quickly casted several privacy wards around the room before I allowed them to speak.

"I will fight… I won't run away and hide" Harry said with clear determination in his voice. I like his confidence though if nothing else…

"Then Harry, I will be training you from tomorrow… I hope you don't disappoint me" I said with a smile but both Harry and Sirius gulped in fear… I am not that scary, right??

[POV Rumi(Roxanne)]

I don't know what exactly happened between Harry, Sirius, and Reo but suddenly one day, Sirius and Harry agreed to be trained by Reo. When the tournament started both Harry and Sirius vehemently refused to learn anything dark… now its kind of ironic, Harry is getting trained by Reo. Even though I haven't seen a single training session… Reo must be teaching borderline illegal magic to Harry.

One more week before the third task… Reo has told me what I needed to do. I have to grab the cup at the same time Harry does. I was slightly sad that I won't be the only winner but I didn't mind it too much because I was getting to fight afterwards… and it wasn't a spar… it would be a fight to the death where a few of us will be facing a lot of them, the type of fight I liked the most.

It has been long since I had a fight like this… last time was when Reo took me to fight with Meta Liberation Army. Today all the champions were called by that moron Bagman to meet him in front of the Quidditch pitch. So, I decided to cut short on my training… at least until the meeting with the fool is over.

I know that there is going to be a race kind of event for the 3rd task of the event… it has always been like that since the Tri-Wizard tournament had started centuries ago. So, it was quite clear to me that they must have made a race course or obstacle course in the Quidditch pitch… they are fools if they have thought that someone won't notice the notice-me-not charms placed around the pitch. Though they were quite powerful… but people with experience and power will definitely notice them.

I finally left the Room of Requirement to meet with the other champions and the moron. I arrived in front of the pitch and I noticed that the notice-me-not spells were still placed around the pitch and there was a mist covering the whole pitch. The mist was clearly magical… I can't understand these kinds of stupid theatrics. The mist would obviously be blown away when that moron Bagman reveals what they had done with the pitch.

I was the first one to arrive there so I decided to wait… the second one to arrive after me was Cedric. I greeted the guy… he happily returned the greetings.

"Roxanne… are you ready for the task?" the pretty boy asked me.

"Kind off… no one would be completely ready for something like this… when the last tournament happened all the Champions died in the third task…" I trailed off with that. Cedric gulped down and nodded his head in understanding.

"I completely agree with you Miss Roxanne" the next person to arrive was Reo's latest girlfriend. I wasn't close to Fleur like Momo and Luna were but I liked her enough. I had no problem that she was my Reo's newest girlfriend… I have long decided that I was going to share Reo with other girls… one more girl won't be a problem. (A/N: Rumi dear, that was a flag you shouldn't have raised).

"How are you Fleur? How is your training going?" I asked to girl.

"I am quite fine… and I have learnt a lot from Alice in these months. Edgar shows me some spells from time to time… though I no longer have any interest in winning this tournament but Edgar says that I still need to survive" Fleur said with a smile on her face. Its quite rare to see her smiling… when she first arrived here, I had never seen her smiling… at least not like this.

Both of us were able to chat for a few more minutes before harry arrived. Seeing that Fleur and I have started to chat about private matters… Cedric decided to stand away from us… quite a gentleman. Harry arrived and greeted us… I asked him how his training with Reo was going and he immediately grimaced.

"He is a demon! I am going to die if this goes on… aren't both of you his girlfriends? You gotta save me from that demon!" Harry said with fear evident in his voice… I am quite sure that Reo isn't pushing him too hard… he would die if he trains with me. It wasn't was secret now that Fleur was Reo's girlfriend too, like us… after all the rumour mill in Hogwarts is quite fast and after the 2nd task a lot of students have seen Reo and Fleur on dates…

"Sorry, Harry… but when Edgar sets his mind of achieving something… he achieves it. He is kind of stubborn like that" I said with pity clear in my voice.

"Sorry, Harry, please don't drag me into this… he might decide that I need some training too" Fleur also spoke with pity in her voice. No… no matter what we say, Reo isn't going to stop training Harry until Voldemort is taken care of in a kind of permanent way…

Finally, the fool Bagman arrived followed by Krum, Katina, and Andre the stupid. Bagman looked really proud of himself…

"Champions! This is going to be your third task" Bagman said dramatically and waved his wand towards the pitch and the mist was finally cleared. A Maze! Well… at least I would say that making us race inside a maze is kind of a good idea…

"As you might have already guessed… a Maze" Bagman began to speak again. Of course, you fool! Our eyes aren't for decoration… we can clearly see what it is.

"The third task is going to be simple. In the middle of the maze… the goblet of fire is going to be kept. The Champions have to reach the centre of the maze. Whoever touches the cup first wins the tournament" Bagman said with a proud smile on his face. Of course, he or she will win the tournament but not before they become unwilling participants for Voldemort's resurrection. But I didn't say it out loud… others didn't need to know.

"The Champions will enter the maze in order of their scores… Roxanne Ravenclaw is first on the points table, she will be the first to enter the maze. Harry Potter will enter next but after an interval of 5 minutes…" Bagman continued on droning.

"The maze will be protected by magical beasts Mr. Hagrid had graciously provided us" Bagman said with a happy smile. This isn't good… the beasts Hagrid keeps aren't good… "Good luck to you all" and with that Bagman left. I gave another look towards the maze then I started to walk back towards the Room of Requirement… with this the final preparations have started…
