Chapter 68- Snake Sojourn.

------------------------------------

Past the door was just darkness; thankfully, Professor Lockhart lit up the end of his wand and paved the way forward, stepping through first, boldly yet not recklessly. He takes his time, testing for something that Harry doesn't understand before waving the boy over. Quickly moving to join him, Lockhart lights up a torch on the wall, revealing a passage going to the left and a locked gate to the right, and right in front of them was some weird snake statue thing in a gap in the wall, beneath it was some odd symbols.

While Lockhart moved to the right, studying the gate and testing it with spells, Harry moved forward, intrigued by the statue. He examines it first, a coiled snake, flat against the platform it lays on, going around in circles, its tail in the centre and its head on the outside edge. He noticed its eyes glowed an ominous green. The detail on it was remarkable; the scales looked so lifelike, and its fangs sharp, even though it was clearly made out of some shiny silver metal.

Paying attention to the platform the snake lay on, Harry spotted two images of mountains, one above and one below, separated by a line between them. Looking closer, he noticed more symbols to the left and right of them. To the left was a circle, again one above and one below, separated by a line. To the right was a rectangle with a jagged line cutting through it horizontally, and beneath that, a line and then another rectangle. Very curious, Harry reached out and felt it with his fingers, rubbing his fingers against the markings. And then, to his surprise, it moved.

Harry jerked back in surprise as suddenly the snake came to life, the snake springing up and pointing towards Harry, yet only staring. Then, a ticking noise began to sound as the snake began to spin right, sticking in the same position but looking like it was breathing, its body moving slightly as it spun. Those green eyes and the sudden ticking and spinning shocked Harry so much he didn't know what to do, and he just stood there, staring at it as it moved. Harry idly noticed that he had moved the upper segment to the right, revealing a new image on the left, but his brain wasn't able to make the connection.
