Harry jumped out of the way at the very last second and raised his sword. People gasped, likely expecting him to cut at the Horntail’s exposed neck. Instead, he used the Serpent Slayer to propel himself forward by slamming the tip down like an Olympian athlete and pushed, forcing his body to catapult forward. Using the momentum, Harry sidestepped away from the dragon’s massive foot, under its wing then made a break for the clutch of eggs. The dragon roared in terror and tried to turn, but it was too large to turn quickly in its current position. Harry closed the gap; free hand outstretched and grabbed the golden egg.
