It was big and green and scary – like the concoction of all Bella’s worst fears in one. Its skin was yellowy-green and lumpy and its face was a cross between a dinosaur and a dragon. It had long claws, but stood like a man. On its back were two very large wings.
It looked at her and hissed with its incredibly long tongue, and then breathed fire at her. She shrieked, and began running. Running and running and running. It was a miracle the creature didn’t catch her immediately, as she ran through the corridors, past the empty classrooms and corridors.

McGonagall’s eyes narrowed, as she brandished her wand.
“Riddikulus,” she shouted,” Riddikulus.”
The Boggart vanished.
