Harry saves Ginny from the basilisk from "summary" of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling
Harry, Ron, and Professor Lockhart rushed through the tunnels below Hogwarts, following the sound of a voice crying for help. It was Ginny's voice, and Harry's heart raced with fear for her safety. They finally reached the Chamber of Secrets, a dark and eerie place where a massive snake-like creature, a basilisk, lay waiting.
Ginny lay motionless on the ground, pale and still, with the creature looming over her. Harry's instincts kicked in, and he knew he had to act quickly to save her. Drawing on his courage and determination, he faced the basilisk head-on, armed only with Godric Gryffindor's sword. The creature lunged at him, its deadly gaze fixed on him, but Harry dodged its attacks with skill and agility.
With a swift and decisive strike, Harry plunged the sword into the basilisk's mouth, delivering a fatal blow. The creature thrashed in pain and fury, its venomous fangs snapping dangerously. Harry narrowly avoided its strikes, focused solely on saving Ginny from its clutches. As the basilisk lay dying, its venomous fangs pierced Harry's arm, injecting its deadly poison into his veins.
Despite the searing pain, Harry pressed on, his only thought to save Ginny. He rushed to her side, cradling her in his arms, willing her to wake up. Ginny stirred, her eyes fluttering open, confusion and fear etched on her face. Harry reassured her, his voice calm and soothing, telling her she was safe now. Ginny clung to him, grateful and relieved to be alive.
Together, they made their way out of the Chamber of Secrets, where Ron and Professor Lockhart waited anxiously. The ordeal was over, but the memory of Harry's bravery and sacrifice would linger on, a testament to his unwavering loyalty and love for his friends. The bond between Harry and Ginny had been forged in the heat of battle, a bond that would endure whatever challenges lay ahead.
