When Hermione first saw what sort of animal Hagrid had in store for them today, she had been frightened. When Hagrid told Harry to go up to the Hippogriff and bow, she had held her breath in fright, and clamped down tightly on her bottom lip, so tight, she almost drew blood.
When the Hippogriff, after and agonizing amount of time, finally bowed back to Harry, she let out a sigh of relief, and had heard Ron, beside her, do the same.
Only to draw in a great big breath of alarm yet again when Hagrid threw Harry onto the Hippogriff and it flew off with him.
While that had all ended well, she was unsure of how she would fare against the big peach coloured Hippogriff standing in front of her, busily ripping apart what looked like a chicken carcass.
Taking a deep breath, she stepped closer to the Hippogriff, and bowed deeply, careful not to blink or take her eyes of his.
Looking down at her with his piercing blue eyes, he threw the carcass to the side, stood up and began advancing toward her, but, before she could panic, he bowed, leaving her feeling weak in the knees with relief. She had done it.
