Episode 4
Swara sits on her knees and transforms into a beautiful red and golden snake… Ragini is stunned…
The snake again turns back to Swara…. Ragini’s jaw drops to floor…
Swara stands up and walks to Ragini… She puts a finger on her chin and closes her mouth…
Swara “Flies will get in your mouth…”
Ragini comes out of the trance…
Ragini “You are an icchadhari Naagin!!!”
Swara “What!!! No!!! Wait… Yeah… Kind of…”
Ragini “Details please..!!”
Swara “I am an unregistered animagous…”
Ragini “Excuse me… An unregistered what??”
Swara “Animagous…”
Ragini raises her one eyebrow and gives her a look… Swara puts a hand on her shoulder and nods indicating she will explain…
Swara “Animagous are those witches and wizards who can turn into an animal… Only few can do so… ”
Ragini “Then what about this unregistered thing???”
Swara “Witches and Wizards who are Animagous,if they work for the ministry,or any other higher post in any other profession,then they have to register themselves… So that their movement can be tapped even if they are in their animal form…”
Ragini “Means when you are a Naagin then no one can trace you…”
Swara “On official documents… NO… But there are some things on which even the unregistered Animagous are traced by their own names…”
Ragini “Interesting!!!”
Swara smiles looking at her “BTW I am an icchadhari Naagin but not really… (Ragini looks on) Matlab ki yes I can transform into one but I am not really one…”
Ragini “Di… How did you find out that you are an Animagous…??”
Swara “After Diwali vacations,I returned to the college… I was in my hostle common room studying…. Then–
FB SHOWS…
Swara is sitting in the common room of her hostle… She is studying… Just then a feather comes from some direction… She catches the feather and smiles seeing it… She swings her wand in the air and speaks a spell…
“Revealious”
The feather flies in the air and burst into white dust forming a message
‘Waiting to see you my love ❤❤’
Swara smiles seeing the message and closes her book… She is about to sneak out of the common room when the portrait of an old lady speaks to her…
Portrait “You cannot sneak out in this hour…”
Swara “Common… I always do so…”
Portrait “No… You don’t… You do that 2 hours early than this time… It’s the time of your return… You cannot go…”
Swara frowns… She collects her stuffs from the table and stamps back to her room… While leaving she sees a snake escaping the common room through a hole in the wall…
She wishes she was the one…
In the room she prepares to send a message… She swings her wand in the air and is about to cast a spell when it falls from her hand…
She kneels down and is still thinking of the snake… As soon as she picks her wand,she turns into a red and golden snake… She remains like that for a while and then again turns back to herself…
Swara “What!!! Really!!! Amazing!!!”
She smirks and turns back to snake and sneaks out of the room….
FB ENDS…
Swara “So now you got it??”
Ragini “Hmmm… I got another thing as well…(grinning widely) you got a late night message and meeting the person was so important that it made you discover that you are an Animagous!!”
Swara gulps and looks at her (in mind) “How can she Everytime overpower me in terms of secrets… Now how to tell her about him…”
Ragini “Di!!! You are in a mess… You again looked into my eyes and spoke… (Grinning) who is that him???”
Swara “My boyfriend!! Sanskar Maheshwari…”
Ragini gasps…
Maheshwari Mansion…
Lakshya “So she is also an Animagous!!”
Sanskar nods “I didn’t knew about her being so neither she but one day during the practicals of Defense Against Dark Arts,—
FB SHOWS…
DP “Now just swing your wands as you do and speak the spell Expecto Patronum!! ”
Rohan (Guys… I am introducing Rohan here… It’s same as my previous ff but just that here he is SwaSan’s friend) “Expect of What?? ”
DP frowns and glares him…
Swara “Sorry Professor,he means to say can you please repeat the spell..??”
DP nods ” Expecto Patronum!! ”
DP “Remember students that Our Patronouses are very much related to us… It comes from the mixture of mind and heart… It shows to whom are we connected… Not everyone’s Patronous is the same but if it ever happens then it means that they have a very deep and unbreakable connection…”
Sanskar “So it means that our Patronous reflects the one whom we love or who is an important part of our life??”
DP nods “Now Rohan, come forward and cast the spell… And for God’s sake, pronounce the word correctly Expecto Patronum!! ”
Rohan nods and comes ahead… He swings his wand in the air and points it saying the spell…
“Expecto Patronum!! ”
A white dust escapes from the tip of his wand and it takes the form of a Silver Doe… All mouth Wow seeing the scene in front of them… Even Rohan is mesmerized seeing it…
DP “Perfect… Very Good boy… Please keep up this performance…”
Rohan beams with happiness and nods…
DP calls Sanskar next…
Sanskar ” Expecto Patronum!! ”
His Patronous is revealed as a huge Silver Snake (resembling Swara’s Animagous form)… Sanskar is shocked seeing it… Swara is elated…
DP smiles… He sends back Sanskar and Calls Swara… Sanskar is in thoughts…
Swara ” Expecto Patronum!! ”
Swara’s Patronous is revealed as a silver Eagle (Like that of Sanskar)… Sanskar smiles and gets happy seeing it… Now Swara is in thoughts…
DP praises her and calls the next student….
After the class is over,all are dispersing to their another class…
Sanskar comes to walk beside Swara and speaks…
Sanskar “I didn’t knew you feel so connected to me…”
Swara is puzzled but smiles and says him the same… Now Sanskar is puzzled…
They pause for sometime and suddenly speak together…
SwaSan “There is something about me which you need to know…”
They look at each other and decide to meet in the evening…
In the evening…
SwaSan come to meet each other…
Swara ” You wanted to say something…??”
Sanskar “Yeah… But even you wanted to say something…”
Swara “No… I wanted to show you something…”
Sanskar “Me too… But you first…”
Swara nods “But don’t get shocked or run away…”
Sanskar nods…
Swara sits on her knees and turns to snake… Sanskar is stunned… He then smirks… He also bends in his style and changes to eagle… Swara comes back to her original form and gasps out of shock…
Sanskar flies round and round around her and the lands back on the ground to come back to his original form…
Swara also smirks…
Swara “This is why even after being a snake,my Patronous is an eagle…”
Sanskar “Earlier I was also in a confusion that eagles and snakes are enemy by nature then also why my Patronous is a Snake…”
They smile looking into each other’s eyes…
After sometime,they are sitting on the terrace hugging each other…
Swara tells him how she found out about her being an Animagous…
Swara “Sanskar how you got to know that you are an Animagous…”
Sanskar laughs… Swara looks on…
Sanskar “It was a funny incident… I was in school back then… Lucky was sleeping, and mom had asked me to wake him up… Waking up Lucky is next to impossible… So i took some eggs,some tomatoes and a bowl full of ice… I kept the eggs and tomatoes suspended in the air and put the ice cubes inside his t-shirt… He woke up with a jolt and looked angrily at me… But before he could charge at me,i made free the eggs and the tomatoes and as a result,it fell on his head…(he laughs remembering the scene)… He was so angry that he was about to use the torcher curse on me but I ran and jumped off the window only to realize next moment what mistake i did but miraculously, I transformed into an eagle… I was amazed and Lucky’s jaw dropped… I went back to him and landed on his shoulder… Then I turned back to my original form… And since then it is a secret between me and him… And we make full use of it…”
He grins thinking of what all he did along with Lakshya being an eagle…
Swara “Now i knew why all the messages you sent to me were on brown feathers… ”
Sanskar “Yeah… Those are my feathers..”
Sanskar smiles… So does Swara
FB ENDS…
Here Swara also finished narrating the flashback to Ragini…
Ragini “Wow di… When you both will get married, your whole family will be an animal…”
Swara “Animagous!!”
Ragini “Its the same…”
She bursts out laughing… Swara frowns…
