Chapter 2. The Miracle
Harry stood in shock, and so did the others. The centaur had a voice like Harry's, but looked firm. The creature attached to the rope stepped out of the shadows hiding it, and into the full moons light.
Harry was struck dumb and the others gasped. The creature was amazing. It had a horse's body that had a timber wolf with some shadow. It had thsestral's wing, but Harry saw that it seemed to be shadow on the inside. It had a robins blue egg mane, but half closed lady like eyes that seemed to be very human and looked like it had seen the universe when it was young. It also had a golden rod horn and glow to it. A rope tied around her muzzle lead to the centaur's hand.
"What do you mean Nagini the snake?" asked Harry. "Nagini is a killer. She killed… Snape." yelled Harry, his voice cracking and quieting at the last part, and hanging his head. "Yet she is like you and Serverus, Harry." said the centaur. "Nagini is not the only one you have misjudged Harry. You did that to Angela too. But you had no reason to believe otherwise." continued the creature. "What?" said Harry who was very confused. "Do you remember when Voldamort said that he possessed snakes when he was "less than a spirit?" said Anna in a voice like silk. "Fen's words are true. I can only bring back one, and I am certain that once you learn more about her, you will agree. First you can meet her spirit before she comes back. "I doubt that," grumbled Ron. Hermione elbowed him. "Pay attention" she hissed.
A silvery object that reminded Harry of a patronus slithered out the air. It became a snake with diamond ringlets. It was like Harry's mother had been with the Resurrection Stone. "Harry. Harry Potter. I never meant to hurt you or any of your friends. Neither did Angela." "Who the bloody hell is Angela?!" yelled Ron fed up with the names he didn't know.
Nagini looked straight at Harry, and Harry stared back. His friends had been silent. "Now I will bring you back Nagini." said Anna. "I will explain afterwards." said Nagini. "Dumbledore said that there was no spell that can bring back the dead." Sighed Harry. "This is not a spell" said Anna. "And besides, Dumbledore wasn't always right and didn't know everything right?" she added. "Now please," said Fen.
Anna closed her eyes, and looked like she was concentrating as the goldenrod around her yellow-orange horn changed colors. Harry took a moment to look around and he saw the colors of the clearing were changing slowly.
"Blimey." Said Ron from behind him, and Harry turned around to see that he had his hands over his mouth. The change slowly sped up, changing from blue, to navy blue, to pacific blue, until it turned a turquoise blue, which was where it stayed.
Nagini's body and decapitated head had appeared out of thin air. Because snakes don't have eyelids her eyes were still open. Nagini's spirit looked down to them and so did Harry and his friends. Nagini's head glowed cerulean blue and, then rose and attached itself to the place where Nagini's body and neck both ended but once met.
This was because Neville Longbottom, a forgetful, but kind, boy had cut it off with Godric Gryffindor's sword in the seventh year. Godric was the original head of the Gryffindor, whose animal was the lion.
"Finally. I wonder what it will feel like when my body and soul are not being possessed." said Nagini. Silver and white ringlets circled around Nagini, as she closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and dived into her body. A moment later, Nagini now alive body reared up her eyes still open.
"Harry I think I'm going mad." Yelped Ron and Neville. "Let us now go into the Room of Requirement please." Said Anna calmly. "Just one question." said Hermione in a small voice. Everyone looked at her. "How
are we going to get Nagini inside?" "Like this." Said Nagini in a matter of fact voice.
Nagini seemed to disappear. Harry felt Nagini slither past his legs. "How can you-" he started. "No time Harry" Said Anna. "I will return to the forest." said Fen as he untied the rope around Anna's muzzle that had been loose enough for her to talk. Then he trotted back into the forest. Anna's horn glowed cerulean, and then disappeared like Nagini had. "You need a sit and talk room" she said.
Harry felt very awkward as he walked in the castle, even though he had used all of the secret passages that were open. Finally they arrived. 'I need a private sit and talk room' thought Harry three times as he walked in front of the painting of Barnabas the Barmy trying to teach trolls ballet.
The door opened quickly. They all went in. After the door had closed, Nagini appeared along with Anna. Harry suddenly felt an extreme sense of hate towards Nagini that had been stunned by the miracle. Harry looked around to cool down his temper. They were in a sitting room that had red curtains everywhere.
There was a lot of room. There were six armchairs, a soft carpet rug, and a cushy blue pedestal. Anna lay down like a camel, giraffe, or horse would, and Nagini settled herself on the pedestal.
"Okay so what's your story Nagini?" asked Harry. "First of all I want you to know that this is all my fault." said Nagini in a shaky voice. "You know that is not true Nagini." said Anna. "But I feel it is." Nagini replied. "Its not honest Nagini please." said Anna. Finally Nagini nodded.
She sighed and her eyelids came over her eyes, shocking Harry and his friends. "I made them do that." explained Nagini, answering the unasked question on the groups lips. "Harry, I need to tell you something. We are more alike than you could ever imagine." She said looking up at Harry. "I have your scar."
Harry looked as stunned as he felt as Nagini peeled a piece of skin off with her tail that was between her eyes, the same place where Harry's scar was. There was a faint lighting shaped scar that was barely visible like Harry's scar there. "Can you do your time thing, so that they can see it better please, Anna?" asked Nagini looking at Anna.
She nodded, and another time miracle happened. Everyone shrunk. The room stayed the same, but everyone, Nagini and Anna too shrunk, until they were all the size and shape they were in Harry's first year. Nagini looked the same but smaller and Anna's glow was so faint you could barley see it, and she was more of a shadowy color and the inside of her wings were darker. Harry could clearly see Nagini's scar now, since it was almost glowing. Everyone's clothes were way too big for them. Nagini waved her tail like a wand, fixing it. "Begin" said Harry.
