Magic would be useful. Would you agree or disagree? Well just like everything it has some ups and downs. In J.K. Rowling’s book Harry Potter And The Chamber of Secrets there were three main characters. Harry, Ron, Hermione. They go to school at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. This is their second year at Hogwarts. In every book, movie or scenario there is always a hero that is put to the test. There are many qualities that I like about Ron, Hermione and Harry. Ron is your average student that doesn't understand a lot of things but works hard. Hermione is your smart excelling student. Works hard studys for everything and gets very good grades. She is also what you would call a book worm. By that I mean that any time she can …show more content…

Hermione got petrified. She could not help her fellow Gryffindor classmates. Which was not what she planned, especially with Draco Malfoy nagging on that Hermione would be next to be attacked by the basilisk. Draco Malfoy is a Slytherin. He is an enemy to Ron, Hermione, Harry because his family thinks that they are better than everyone else. Ron and Harry had to solve the mysterious myth of the basilisk without Hermione. To me Ron and Harry character and personality changed towards the end of the book. Ron and Harry both became more brave and had gotten more courage. Ron had to deal with the problem that his sister Ginny was trapped in the chamber. After some time Ron and Harry find out where the chamber of secrets was located.

As they were walking farther into the chamber Gilderoy turned on Ron and Harry. Gilderoy took Ron's wand from him. He then said that he was going to get rid of Ron and Harry’s memory. He used the spell called Oblivious. Luckily for Ron and Harry the spell backfired sending Lockhart flying into the roof of the chamber. Which then caused the area in the roof to collapse. This then separated Ron and Harry on different sides. Harry went on ahead to try and find Ginny who was somewhere in the chamber. After walking down the hallway of the chamber Harry spotted Ginny lying on the ground. She was unconscious. Then a guy appeared. His name is Tom Marvolo RIddle. In the book Tom switched the letters around and it said I AM LORD VOLDEMORT. Then Tom summoned the basilisk to try and kill Harry. Harry character changed dramatically at this point. I feel like he became more brave, heroic and courageous because he fought the basilisk. Eventually Harry stabbed the basilisk in the head through the mouth instantly killing it. But Harry paid the price as one of the basilisk’s fangs stabbed Harry in the arm. The venom was spreading throughout the body. It would have killed Harry had it not been for Fawkes and his tears that had healing powers. Fawkes was a highly
