　　　Moody　helped　tip　the　stuff　down　Harrys　throat；　he　coughed；　a　peppery　taste　burning　his　throat。　Moody's　office　came　into　sharper　focus；　and　so　did　Moody　himself。。。　He　looked　as　white　as　Fudge　had　looked；　and　both　eyes　were　fixed　unblinkingly　upon　Harry's　face。
　　　〃Voldemort's　back；　Harry？　You're　sure　he's　back？　How　did　he　do　it？〃
　　　〃He　took　stuff　from　his　father's　grave；　and　from　Wormtail；　and　me；〃　said　Harry。　His　head　felt　clearer；　his　scar　wasn't　hurting　so　badly；　he　could　now　see　Moodys　face　distinctly；　even　though　the　office　was　dark。　He　could　still　hear　screaming　and　shouting　from　the　distant　Quidditch　field。
　　　〃What　did　the　Dark　Lord　take　from　you？〃　said　Moody。
　　　〃Blood；〃　said　Harry；　raising　his　arm。　His　sleeve　was　ripped　where　Wormtail's　dagger　had　torn　it。
　　　Moody　let　out　his　breath　in　a　long；　low　hiss。
　　　〃And　the　Death　Eaters？　They　returned？〃
　　　〃Yes；〃　said　Harry。　〃Loads　of　them。。。〃
　　　〃How　did　he　treat　them？〃　Moody　asked　quietly。　〃Did　he　forgive　them？〃
　　　But　Harry　had　suddenly　remembered。　He　should　have　told　Dumbledore；　he　should　have　said　it　straightaway…
　　　〃There's　a　Death　Eater　at　Hogwarts！　There's　a　Death　Eater　here…they　put　my　name　in　the　Goblet　of　Fire；　they　made　sure　I　got　through　to　the　end…〃
　　　Harry　tried　to　get　up；　but　Moody　pushed　him　back　down。
　　　〃I　know　who　the　Death　Eater　is；〃　he　said　quietly。
　　　〃Karkaroff？〃　said　Harry　wildly。　〃Where　is　he？　Have　you　got　him？　Is　he　locked　up？〃
　　　〃Karkaroff？〃　said　Moody　with　an　odd　laugh。　〃Karkaroff　fled　tonight；　when　he　felt　the　Dark　Mark　burn　upon　his　arm。　He　betrayed　too　many　faithful　supporters　of　the　Dark　Lord　to　wish　to　meet　them。。。　but　I　doubt　he　will　get　far。　The　Dark　Lord　has　ways　of　tracking　his　enemies。〃
　　　〃Karkaroff's　gone？　He　ran　away？　But　then…he　didn't　put　my　name　in　the　goblet？〃
　　　〃No；〃　said　Moody　slowly。　〃No；　he　didn't。　It　was　I　who　did　that。〃
　　　Harry　heard；　but　didn't　believe。
　　　〃No；　you　didn't；〃　he　said。　〃You　didn't　do　that。。。　you　can't　have　done。。。〃
　　　〃I　assure　you　I　did；〃　said　Moody；　and　his　magical　eye　swung　around　and　fixed　upon　the　door；　and　Harry　knew　he　was　making　sure　that　there　was　no　one　outside　it。　At　the　same　time；　Moody　drew　out　his　wand　and　pointed　it　at　Harry。
　　　〃He　forgave　them；　then？〃　he　said。　〃The　Death　Eaters　who　went　free？　The　ones　who　escaped　Azkaban？〃
　　　〃What？〃　said　Harry。
　　　He　was　looking　at　the　wand　Moody　was　pointing　at　him。　This　was　a　bad　joke；　it　had　to　be。
　　　〃I　asked　you；〃　said　Moody　quietly；　〃whether　he　forgave　the　scum　who　never　even　went　to　look　for　him。　Those　treacherous　cowards　who　wouldn't　even　brave　Azkaban　for　him。　The　faithless；　worthless　bits　of　filth　who　were　brave　enough　to　cavort　in　masks　at　the　Quidditch　World　Cup；　but　fled　at　the　sight　of　the　Dark　Mark　when　I　fired　it　into　the　sky。〃
　　　〃You　fired。。。　What　are　you　talking　about。。。？〃
　　　〃I　told　you。　Harry　。。。I　told　you。　If　there's　one　thing　I　hate　more　than　any　other；　it's　a　Death　Eater　who　walked　free。　They　turned　their　backs　on　my　master　when　he　needed　them　most。　I　expected　him　to　punish　them。　I　expected　him　to　torture　them。　Tell　me　he
　　　hurt　them；　Harry。。。〃　Moody's　face　was　suddenly　lit　with　an　insane　smile。　〃Tell　me　he　told　them　that　I；　I　alone　remained　faithful。。。　prepared　to　risk　everything　to　deliver　to　him　the　one　thing　he　wanted　above　all。。。　you〃
　　　〃You　didn't。。。　it…it　can't　be　you。。。〃
　　　〃Who　put　your　name　in　the　Goblet　of　Fire；　under　the　name　of　a　different　school？　I　did。　Who　frightened　off　every　person　I　thought　might　try　to　hurt　you　or　prevent　you　from　winning　the　tournament？　I　did。　Who　nudged　Hagrid　into　showing　you　the　dragons？　I　did。　Who　helped　you　see　the　only　way　you　could　beat　the　dragon？　I　did〃
　　　Moody's　magical　eye　had　now　left　the　door。　It　was　fixed　upon　Harry。　His　lopsided　mouth　leered　more　widely　than　ever。
　　　〃It　hasn't　been　easy；　Harry；　guiding　you　through　these　tasks　without　arousing　suspicion。　I　have　had　to　use　every　ounce　of　cunning　I　possess；　so　that　my　hand　would　not　be　detectable　in　your　success。　Dumbledore　would　have　been　very　suspicious　if　you　had　managed　everything　too　easily。　As　long　as　you　got　into　that　maze；　preferably　with　a　decent　head　start…then；　I　knew；　I　would　have　a　chance　of　getting　rid　of　the　other　champions　and　leaving　your　way　clear。　But　I　also　had　to　contend　with　your　stupidity。　The　second　task。。。　that　was　when　I　was　most　afraid　we　would　fail。　I　was　keeping　watch　on　you；　Potter。　I　knew　you　hadn't　worked　out　the　egg's　clue；　so　I　had　to　give　you　another　hint…〃
　　　〃You　didn't；〃　Harry　said　hoarsely。　〃Cedric　gave　me　the　clue…〃
　　　〃Who　told　Cedric　to　open　it　underwater？　I　did。　I　trusted　that　he　would　pass　the　information　on　to　you。　Decent　people　are　so　easy　to　manipulate；　Potter。　I　was　sure　Cedric　would　want　to　repay　you　for　telling　him　about　the　dragons；　and　so　he　did。　But　even　then；
　　　Potter；　even　then　you　seemed　likely　to　fail。　I　was　watching　all　the　time　。。。all　those　hours　in　the　library。　Didn't　you　realize　that　the　book　you　needed　was　in　your　dormitory　all　along？　I　planted　it　there　early　on；　I　gave　it　to　the　Longbottom　boy；　don't　you　remember？　Magical　Water　Plants　of　the　Mediterranean。　It　would　have　told　you　all　you　needed　to　know　about　gillyweed。　I　expected　you　to　ask　everyone　and　anyone　you　could　for　help。　Longbottom　would　have　told　you　in　an　instant。　But　you　did　not。。。　you　did　not。。。　You　have　a　streak　of　pride　and　independence　that　might　have　ruined　all。
　　　〃So　what　could　I　do？　Feed　you　information　from　another　innocent　source。　You　told　me　at　the　Yule　Ball　a　house…elf　called　Dobby　had　given　you　a　Christmas　present。　I　called　the　elf　to　the　staffroom　to　collect　some　robes　for　cleaning。　I　staged　a　loud　conversation　with　Professor　McGonagall　about　the　hostages　who　had　been　taken；　and　whether　Potter　would　think　to　use　gillyweed。　And　your　little　elf　friend　ran　straight　to　Snape's　office　and　then　hurried　to　find　you。。。〃
　　　Moodys　wand　was　still　pointing　directly　at　Harry's　heart。　Over　his　shoulder；　foggy　shapes　were　moving　in　the　Foe…Glass　on　the　wall。
　　　〃You　were　so　long　in　that　lake；　Potter；　I　thought　you　had　drowned。　But　luckily；　Dumbledore　took　your　idiocy　for　nobility；　and　marked　you　high　for　it。　I　breathed　again。
　　　〃You　had　an　easier　time　of　it　than　you　should　have　in　that　maze　tonight；　of　course；〃　said　Moody。　〃I　was　patrolling　around　it；　able　to　see　through　the　outer　hedges；　able　to　curse　many　obstacles　out　of　your　way。　I　Stunned　Fleur　Delacour　as　she　passed。　I　put　the　Imperius　Curse　on　Krum；　so　that　he　would　finish　Diggory　and　leave　your　path　to　the　cup　clear。〃
　　　Harry　stared　at　Moody。　He　just　didn't　see　how　this　could　be。。。　Dumbledore's　friend；　the　famous　Auror。。。　the　one　who　had　caught　so　many　Death　Eaters　。。。It　made　no　sense　。。。no　sense　at　all。。。
　　　The　foggy　shapes　in　the　Foe…Glass　were　sharpening；　had　bee　more　distinct。　Harry　could　see　the　outlines　of　three　people　over　Moody's　shoulder；　moving　closer　and　closer。　But　Moody　wasn't　watching　them。　His　magical　eye　was　upon　Harry。
　　　〃The　Dark　Lord　didn't　manage　to　kill　you。　Potter；　and　he　so　wanted　to；〃　whispered　Moody。　〃Imagine　how　he　will　reward　me　when　he　finds　I　have　done　it　for　him。　I　gave　you　to　him…the　thing　he　needed　above　all　to　regenerate…and　then　I　killed　you　for　him。　I　will　be　honored　beyond　all　other　Death　Eaters。　I　will　be　his　dearest；　his　closest　supporter。。。　closer　than　a　son。。。〃
　　　Moody's　normal　eye　was　bulging；　the　magical　eye　fixed　upon　Harry。　The　door　was　barred；　and　Harry　knew　he　would　never　reach　his　own　wand　in　time。。。
　　　〃The　Dark　Lord　and　I；〃　said　Moody；　and　he　looked　pletely　insane　now；　towering　over　Harry；　leering　down　at　him；　〃have　much　in　mon。　Both　of　us；　for　instance；　had　very　disappointing　fathers。。。　very　disappointing　indeed。　Both　of　us　suffered　the　indignity；　Harry；　of　being　named　after　those　fathers。　And　both　of　us　had　the　pleasure。。。　the　very　great　pleasure　。。。of　killing　our　fathers　to　ensure　the　continued　rise　of　the　Dark　Order！〃
　　　〃You're　mad；〃　Harry　said…he　couldn't　stop　himself〃you're　mad！〃
　　　〃Mad；　am　I？〃　said　Moody；　his　voice　rising　uncontrollably。　〃We'll　see！　We'll　see　who's　mad；　now　that　the　Dark　Lord　has　returned；　with　me　at　his　side！　He　is　back；　Harry　Potter；　you　did　not　conquer　him…and　now…I　conquer　you！〃
　　　Moody　raised　his　wand；　he　opened　his　mouth；
