The Triwizard Tournament. Cedric heard the news with mingled anticipation and apprehension. Despite the age limitation, he was eligible -- if he dared.
He pondered for weeks, in classes, at meals, while practicing Quidditch in his yellow robes. His father's great-great-great-aunt Edwina had been the Hogwarts champion once, although she hadn't won. But she had been a Gryffindor. Cedric worked hard, but he wasn't sure if he was brave enough to risk death.
In the end he decided to do it. Every other House had at least one aspiring champion; Cedric would put his name forward for the honor of Hufflepuff.
