"I last saw it heading into the forest, over there." He waved his hand in a general direction as Neville stormed off past him. He shrugged and walked away. A missing slug wasn't his problem. Neville turned and flicked him a rude gesture as he reached the edge of the canopy of trees. As he walked in, the impenetrable gloom cutting in from each side, he looked for signs of his snake. How dare that insolent child call his precious Nagini a slug? Further in, he found a broken branch level with a flattened trail of grass. It was her! It had to be!

He reached the end of the trail, a clearing gently lit by dappled sunshine, filtering through the leaves and casting ominous shadows all around. Looking around, he could find no more trace of her except... A stick lay broken on the ground, the split characteristic of a snake's tail. Around it was a ring of squashed grass, wilting in the mid-morning heat. So she had been taken. Then it was his job to get her back. No matter the cost.
