Basilisk at the Ga'Hoole Tree

by Whip-Owl

The basilisk broke into the Ga'Hoole Tree. Now he's petrifying the owls. They must send him back to Harry Potter's world, but that won't be easy. *Sequel to Guardiens at Hogwarts.*

Cave Fight

(I've said it before and I'll say it again. I won't come up with a Twilight song. I think I forgot this. Disclaimer: I don't own Ga'Hoole or Harry Potter.)

Cron walked into the tunnel and listened for the basilisk. He soon heard him, slithering around. He was speaking in a strange language Cron didn't understand. Cron's feathers shrank as he got nervous. And being nervous wasn't all an act on his part. He couldn't be petrified, but a snake this size could still do some serious damage.

The basilisk sped up. Cron flapped into the air. He raced deeper into the cave, the basilisk close behind. Cron heard the portal's humming, and saw some light, bad as his eye sight was. So close. He thought. Then the basilisk's head came up in front of him, blocking the way to the portal. Cron screamed, then fell toward the ground.

The others were waiting at the entrance. They all heard Cron scream. "I'd say something went wrong." Soren said. Then he and the others ran down the tunnel. They soon saw the basilisk near the portal, but he wasn't close enough to get sucked in.

He whipped his head toward them. "Don't look in his eyes!" Gylphie warned. Everyone looked away. They swerved out in different directions. The basilisk lashed out at Soren. Soren dodged, the basilisk bit into the wall and came out with some rocks. He then shot his tail out after Gylphie. Gylphie dropped to the ground. His tail hit the rocks.

Twilight landed on the basilisks head and began to sign. Elna swooped in and tried to claw the basilisk's eyes out. It didn't work. He swung his head so strongly that Twilight and Elna were flung off. Twilight fell through the portal, Elna hit the wall with a dull thud and fell to the ground.

The basilisk turned its attention to Elna. He was about to try to eat her whenDigger came in and attacked.

Gylphie meanwhile noticed something odd. The ground was getting very wet. She looked up and realized why. All the times the basilisk had hit the wall he had caused a crack, and now water was coming in through them. Then she heard something. The water was building up. "Digger! Soren!" she tried to warn them.

Then the water burst into the tunnel, flooding it. They all, including the basilisk, got swept into it and through the portal.
