[原创]Nagini's insipid experience(squick) Nagini was hunting, got kidnapped by Fawkes, and was saved by the Boy-Who-Can-Not-Help-Helping-Others. Very boring. Albus/Tom hinted. Nagini wasn’t used to hunting by herself. In childhood and adolescence she was quite content with the caretakers in London Zoo. Then she had her friend Tom who secured her an infallible supply of rodents, and sometimes even human flesh-though she did not really take to the flavor, the size satiated her great appetite just exactly. But now-she cursed-that Tom would be abroad for a few months, she had to hunt herself. Not that there was no Death Eaters willing to take up the job of feeding her, but she didn’t have much trust in their name-Eaters sounded as if they were ready to snatch food from her. So she was now wandering the heath for any sight of potential preys. The pasture was infested with rats, but presently there wasn’t a single one of them. Probably they had become trained by those cunning malicious humans who could never be tired of deploying traps and poisons everywhere. After another long search in vain, she decided to take a rest. Her eyes roamed the blue sky for a change from the drab color of the blasted grassland. A flash of red and gold entered her sight. A bird, a big, fat bird with a blunt beak that seemed not very intimidating. Nagini thought about a change of diet-she had heard of relatives living on trees and hunting birds. That sounded like a good idea. She glanced about and found a sad-looking sand jujube tree. Sighing, she slithered onto it. The leaves weren’t doing good camouflage but after all she didn’t really expect a perfect ambush. Thankfully that stupid bird was carelessly enough to let its long tail brushing the branches as it hummed light-heartedly. God, it was obviously unaware of its apparent lack of musical talent. The tuneless babbling was nothing compared to Tom’s full range of rock’n’roll CDs. Then the bird swooped-dammit! I was detected, thought Nagini, I forgot birds also predate on snakes. Claws sank into Nagini’s skin. She felt herself lifted from the tree-the safe, reliable solid tree-into the very air supported by nothing but gaseous nitrogen and oxygen. “Leave me alone you prick!” hissed Nagini angrily. The bird didn’t listen, instead, it examined Nagini suspiciously. “You resembled my master’s lover.” said the bird. Nagini was horrified. Now she was not only in possession of a bird that held a possibility of snake-eating, but the said bird was also very probable of containing corrupted grey matter. Brilliant, Nagini, thought her to herself. But it was Tom who should be blamed for this, of course, how could any responsible, loving human abandon his very single friend for sake of some indecipherable foreign affairs! “Yes, he flashed in your eyes just now,” said the bird thoughtfully, “maybe I should bring you to my master. He would like you.” Great, thought Nagini, at least I wouldn’t face any lethal danger, but I was probably going to brook two lunatics namely the bird and its very master. But then someone with black hair and green eyes caught her glimpse as she looked down. It was Tom! Nagini almost cried out in gratitude-not for Tom even if that would mean for the damn God, she thought grudgingly. “Help!” she hissed out as loudly as she could. The pale boy looked up. “What are you doing Fawkes!” he exclaimed, “I don’t suppose phoenixes eat snakes.” He freed Nagini from the grasp of said Fawkes, who was still humming innocently. “Master said he would give me a box of lemon drops if I brought him his lover.” Said Fawkes, “But anyway, you are the kind-hearted-boy-who-lived, and I don’t love lemon drops frantically.” The boy seemed not understand phoenixes’ language. And he wasn’t Tom now that Nagini managed to take a closer look. But to be polite she still hissed, “Thanks, I suppose I should go back to hunt now.” The impression of claws still lingered on her back. Claws were something too adhesive for a decent sleek snake to like. “Farewell then,” hissed back the boy. He straightened up, and walked into the castle with the bird. Later in her life, when Nagini had got over all the shock, and recalled the warmth of the red and golden feathers, and the coarse claws, the blunt beak, and the kindness of the boy who looked exactly like Tom, she named the whole thing the adventure of her life. Snakes worshipped her for an experience like that. She loved it.
