A thorough training session - alone, which limited <strong>the</strong> possibilities, but <strong>the</strong>re was no end tohoning your balance, in particular before <strong>and</strong> after kick jumps aiming as high as a st<strong>and</strong>ingman. Then a short flight to <strong>the</strong> place at <strong>the</strong> lake, who would walk in this heat, especially whensweaty from bends <strong>and</strong> kicks <strong>and</strong> jumps <strong>and</strong> blows? Swimming, diving - <strong>Harry</strong> decided to gethimself some Gillyweed, diving for almost an hour would be fascinating, in particular sinceno hostages were waiting to be rescued.And out of <strong>the</strong> water, drying, dressing, back to <strong>the</strong> school where Samantha was about to start<strong>the</strong> grill. He could settle to this rhythm. After all, his first real vacation was no total loss.Except today <strong>the</strong> rhythm was changed. At dusk, <strong>the</strong>y walked along <strong>the</strong> Forbidden Forest. Theformer dragons' camp was <strong>the</strong>ir first target. <strong>Harry</strong> pointed to <strong>the</strong> deserted hut. "Here - that'swhere Charlie <strong>and</strong> this O'Shea were living ... And over <strong>the</strong>re, that was <strong>the</strong> first dragon nest -<strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>rs are a bit far<strong>the</strong>r this way.""Ain't herding well, dragons, huh?""Oh, <strong>the</strong>y did, in a way ... It was like a firing battery, in <strong>the</strong> battle - <strong>the</strong>y were side by side,blocked <strong>the</strong> dark wizards entirely, until ..." <strong>Harry</strong>'s voice trailed off.Samantha went into <strong>the</strong> hut, came out shortly afterwards, <strong>the</strong>n walked toward <strong>the</strong> remnants ofwhat had been <strong>the</strong> sleeping place of a Swedish Short-Snout. <strong>Harry</strong> watched her inspecting <strong>the</strong>place closely, checking <strong>the</strong> last traces - burn marks at <strong>the</strong> trees around, smaller growth ofunderbrush, maybe a horny scale in <strong>the</strong> grass.Samantha came back. "Does <strong>the</strong> school have pictures of <strong>the</strong>m?""Pictures? ... None that I knew of." After a moment, <strong>Harry</strong> clapped his forehead. "Baah -stupid me. Of course I have pictures, lots of <strong>the</strong>m."Samantha watched him. "Don't worry - even so, most people would take it for a head, <strong>and</strong>what's inside for a brain ... Where are <strong>the</strong> pictures, <strong>Harry</strong>?"His finger touched his temple. "Here - ever seen a spector story?"She hadn't, spectors <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> parts of Texas Samantha had seen were two different worlds.<strong>Harry</strong> explained <strong>the</strong> principle of spectors in general <strong>and</strong> of <strong>the</strong> story translation in particular."Sounds good," agreed Samantha, "to show something that's difficult to explain, or that's justtoo beautiful to put in words ... O<strong>the</strong>rwise, my choice would be a normal tale ten times out often.""Why?""To watch <strong>the</strong> storyteller. According to what you said, you can't do that with this movieglobe.""You could, only <strong>the</strong>n of course you'd miss <strong>the</strong> story ..." Thinking her words over, <strong>Harry</strong> said,"But <strong>the</strong> last days, you were looking into <strong>the</strong> fire most of <strong>the</strong> time, when I was talking.Somehow that doesn't fit."14
