"Harry Potter," Dumbledore began, his voice cold as ice, "did you or did you not put your name in the Goblet of Fire?" Harry could see the anger in Dumbledore's eyes, an emotion he had never seen before.

"No, sir," Harry replied, his voice trembling. "I didn't." He could feel the eyes of everyone in the Great Hall on him, the tension in the room was palpable.

"Do you think this is funny, Potter? Do you think I am stupid?" Dumbledore demanded, his voice rising with every word. The room was filled with disbelief as Dumbledore lost his temper.

Without warning, Dumbledore hurled a chair towards Harry. The crowd gasped in shock, as the chair crashed into the table, missing Harry by inches. This was an unheard side of Dumbledore.

The Champions, the Headmasters, Professors, Barty Crouch, and Ludo Bagman all wore expressions of utter shock. No one had ever seen Dumbledore this angry before. The room fell deathly silent.

Harry felt a cold dread settle in his stomach. He knew he hadn't put his name in the Goblet of Fire, but how could he prove it? He glanced nervously around the room, feeling trapped.

"You are lying, Potter!" Dumbledore roared, his face was red with rage. "I have never been so disappointed in you. You will face the consequences of your actions!"

Harry felt his heart sink. He had always respected Dumbledore, but now he felt a deep sense of dread. He had to prove his innocence, but how? He was lost in his thoughts.

Suddenly, a voice broke the silence. "I believe Harry," said Hermione Granger, her voice shaking but determined. "He's not lying." All eyes turned to Hermione, surprised by her interruption.

Dumbledore looked at Hermione, his eyes narrowing. "And why should we believe you, Miss Granger?" he asked, his voice dangerously quiet. Hermione swallowed hard, but held his gaze.

"Because Harry is my friend and he doesn't lie," Hermione replied, her voice steady. "And because I trust him." Her words echoed in the silent room, her loyalty to Harry evident.

Dumbledore's gaze softened slightly as he looked at Hermione, then back at Harry. The room was still silent, waiting for Dumbledore's next move. The tension was unbearable.

Dumbledore sighed heavily. "Very well, Potter. I will give you a chance to prove your innocence. But remember, the truth always comes out, one way or another."

Harry felt a wave of relief wash over him. He nodded, acknowledging Dumbledore's words. The room was filled with a mixture of relief and lingering shock. The scene was far from normal.

As the crowd began to disperse, Harry saw Ron approaching him. "Blimey, Harry," Ron said, looking awestruck. "Never thought I'd see Dumbledore that mad."

Harry managed a weak smile. "Neither did I, Ron." He said. Now, more than ever, Harry needed to figure out who had put his name in the Goblet of Fire. The mystery deepened.

Harry, Hermione, and Ron spent the next few days trying to piece together the puzzle. They searched for clues, talked to potential witnesses, but found nothing concrete. The mystery remained unsolved.

As the days passed, the tension at Hogwarts grew. Harry could feel the distrustful glances of his peers, the whispers behind his back. But he remained focused on proving his innocence.

Dumbledore, too, was observing Harry closely. His fury had subsided, but he still seemed disappointed. Harry was determined to prove him wrong, to regain his trust. The challenge was daunting.

Then, one day, a breakthrough came. Hermione discovered a hidden spell that could reveal the last person to touch a magical object. The trio decided to try it on the Goblet of Fire.

As Hermione cast the spell, the Goblet shuddered, and a ghostly image appeared. It was not Harry, but Barty Crouch Jr. The truth was finally revealed, and the room fell silent.

Harry felt a rush of relief. He had been telling the truth all along. The trio looked at each other, their expressions filled with triumph. They had proven Harry's innocence.

When Dumbledore was informed, he looked deeply relieved. "I owe you an apology, Harry," he said sincerely. "I should have trusted you." His words held a deep regret.

Harry nodded, accepting Dumbledore's apology. He felt a weight lifted off his shoulders. The entire school was abuzz with the news. Harry's name was finally cleared.

From that day forward, the trust between Harry and Dumbledore was restored. The fury of Dumbledore was a thing of the past. Hogwarts returned to its usual state, but the memory lingered on.

Harry learned a valuable lesson about trust and friendship. He knew he could always count on Hermione and Ron. And despite everything, he knew Dumbledore cared for him, too.

In the end, Harry realized that truth always prevails, no matter how hard the circumstances are. This incident, despite being a difficult one, made their bond stronger than ever before.
