Early Childhood

Hogwarts Student

Competing in the Triwizard Tournament
During his sixth year, he put his name into the Goblet of Fire, to apply to compete on behalf of Hogwarts in the Triwizard Tournament. When the names were drawn, he was chosen as the candidate for Hogwarts, though, to his and everyone else's shock, Harry Potter's name was also placed into the goblet, and through magic, tricked the goblet into accepting it as a fourth participant, making Cedric and Harry share in representing Hogwarts for the Triwizard Tournament.

When Harry and Cedric both touched the Triwizard Cup, it turned out to be a portkey that transported them to the Little Hangleton graveyard. There, they were confronted by Barty Crouch, Jr, with a highly weakened Voldemort, and Cedric was struck by an intended Killing Curse by Crouch, while they secured their real target, Harry, for the ritual. However, the wand Crouch had used was actually stolen from Remus Lupin at the Quidditch World Cup months ago, and it still remained loyal to Remus, not allowing itself to be used by Crouch to kill. Due to this, the Killing Curse failed, and the blast knocked Cedric unconscious, instead of outright killing him. When he finally recovered, he intervened with the dual between Harry and Voldemort. Voldemort tortured Cedric and tried to magically compel Harry to kill Cedric, but Harry resisted and both he and Voldemort sent a spell at one another, locking their wands in Priori Incantatem, and stopping Cedric's torture. When the ghosts of Voldemort's victims appeared and held him at bay, Cedric and Harry, attempting to help the injured Regulus Black, tried making their way to the portkey. Regulus stayed behind, and the two students grabbed the portkey, teleporting them back to Hogwarts.

Arriving back, Cedric and Harry recount the events after they took the cup from the maze. Afterwards, they both recovered in the Hospital Wing, with Cedric giving Harry his cut of the prize money of the tournament, before leaving to let Harry rest.
