Mesmerized, Harry looked up, high above him, and saw the eyes of the black dragon, with vertical pupils like a cat's, bulging with either fear or rage, he couldn't tell which. There was a silvery-blue one with long, pointed horns, snapping and snarling at the wizards on the ground a smooth-scaled green one, which was writhing and stamping with all its might a red one with an odd fringe of fine gold spikes around its face, which was shooting mushroom-shaped fire clouds into the air and a gigantic black one, more lizard-like than the others, which was nearest to them.Īt least thirty wizards, seven or eight to each dragon, were attempting to control them, pulling on the chains connected to heavy leather straps around their nexks and llegs. Harry hurried up alongside them - for a split second, he thought he was seeing bonfires, and men darting around them - and then his mouth fell open.įour fully grown, enormous, vicious-looking dragons were rearing onto their hind legs inside an enclosure fenced with thick planks of wood, roaring and snorting - torrents of fire were shooting into the dark sky from their open, fanged mouths, fifty feet above the ground on their outstretched necks. Hagrid led Madame Maxime around a clump of trees and came to a halt. This material is presented for the purposes of review and critique only.
