  ~ The saddest part for me was not any one event in particular, but 
rather a series of events and ideas.
     The first of these has to be Cedric's death.  The cruelty and 
evilness of it was just horrible.  Many people have said before - and 
it is true, that Voldemort treated Cedric like a thing rather than a 
person.  I could not stop crying and now those pages are tear-stained!
     Another sad part was the idea that Harry helped Voldemort to 
rise again via his blood.  I know that was in no way his fault, but 
he did help.  The same way that Cedric's death wasn't his fault.  
     Above all, though, I believe the future may indeed be the 
saddest part.  I believe Harry sums it all up in these lines:
[while trying to make Fred & George take his winnings] 
"If you don't take it, I'm throwing it down the drain.  I don't want 
it and I don't need it.  But I could do with a few laughs.  We could 
all do with a few laughs.  I've got a feeling we're going to need 
them more than usual before long"           
The future looks dark and evil, and I believe many more innocents 
like Cedric will die.
