59 Different Race (1/2)
There were screams from frightened students as they backed off and watched the show.
Arth, in the other hand, was delighted.
”Oh my, isn't this a Night Fang Serpent. How fascinating.”
Arth reaches out for the snake and the snake complied.
It gave a low hiss that sounded like it was happy and slithered up his arm. Arth couldn't help but smile.
”Your scales are absolutely beautiful. Your scales are also cool and nice to touch. What a beauty.”
The snake rubbed its head around Arth's neck.
Hermione spoke with a pale face.
”Arth, I think it wants to bite your neck.”
Arth rolled his eyes.
”Do you think this is twilight or something? Why would a snake be a vampire?”
”But it looks like it wants to bite you, I'm just worried.”
”There's nothing to worry about, it's just a Night Fang.”
”But aren't Night Fangs known for their aggressive behavior?”
”Well this one would never hurt me. Isn't that right, you adorable little snake.”
The snake flicked its tongue in at out.
”you literally met it five seconds ago.”
”Fate is a mysterious thing.”
While the conversation continued, Harry has a weird look on his face. Arth noticed this and had to ask.
”What is it Harry. Is there something weird on my face?”
”...is the snake a girl?”
”Hmmm... good question, let me check.”
Arth changed his pendant into a probe and probed the snake.
While Arth was identifying the snakes gender, Harry wore and even weirder look on his face.
After a few seconds, Arth Replied.
”It is a girl.”
”Ok, that explains it.”
”Explains what?”
Ron clapped his hands together with an enlightened face.
”Harry! You speak Parseltongue right? Tell us what it's saying.”
Harry hesitated on whether to explain or not but seeing the curious look on Arth's face, he decided to give in.
”Well... the snake really really likes you. And-” Harry strained his ears. ”It feels embarrassed that you probed it.”
Arth froze and quietly put away the probe.
”...it also said-(MASSIVE SENSOR WARNING FOR THE KIDS WHO DIDN'T LISTEN TO MY *PARENTAL SUPERVISION ADVISED* WARNING. GET OUT YOU NINE YEAR OLDS, GO WATCH PEWDIEPIE. And for you adults out there, don't worry, you will satisfied in the fourth arc. I think.)- And it wants to be with you forever.”
Arth hesitated before slowly removing the snake from his neck. He walked over to Malfoy and gave him the thrashing snake that seemed desperate to stay with Arth.
Malfoy dumbly received the snake and Arth gave a pitiful expression.
”...it's your snake so you can have it.”
Before malfoy could reject his offer, Arth took off, with Hermione and Harry and Arth following him.
They soon arrived at the library where Arth crouched down and looked as though he was crying.
The other three tried their best to comfort him.
”It's ok mate, I would be scared too if that happened to me. Who knew that snakes could get into humans. I mean I've heard of insane people having a thing for furries but snakes? Unbelievable.”
”Ron!”
