he was most displeased. he punished me... decided he would have to
keep a closer wate....”
quirrell's voice trailed away. harry was remembering his trip to
diagon alley -how could he have been so stupid? he'd seen quirrell
there that very day, shaken hands with him in the leaky .
quirrell der his breath.
”i don't uand... is the stohe mirror? should
i break it?”
harry's mind was rag.
what i wahan ahe world at the moment,
he thought, is to fione before quirrell does. so if i
look in the mirror, i should see myseff finding it -- whis
i'll see where it's hidden! but how i look without quirrell
realizing what i'm up to?
he tried to edge to the left, to get in front of the glass
without quirrell notig, but the ropes around his ankles were
too tight: he tripped and fell nored him. he was
still talking to himself. ”what does this mirror do? how does it
work? help me, master!”
and to harry's horror, a voiswered, and the voice seemed
to quirrell himself
”use the boy... use the boy...”
quirrell rounded on harry.
”yes -- potter -- e here.”
he clapped his hahe ropes binding harry fell
ot slowly to his feet.
”e here,” quirrell repeated. ”look in the mirror and tell
me what you see.”
harry walked toward him.
i must lie, he thought desperately. i must look a
what i see, that's all.
quirrell moved close behind him. harry breathed in the funny
smell that seemed to quirrell's turban. he closed his eyes,
stepped in front of the mirror, ahem again.
he saw his refle, pale and scared-looking at first. but
a momehe refleiled at him. it put its hand
into its pod pulled out a blood-red sto winked and
put the stone ba its pod as it did so, harry felt
something heavy drop i. somehow -- incredibly --
he'd gotteone.
”well?” said quirrell impatiently. ”what do you see?”
harry screwed up his ce.
”i see myself shaking hands with dumbledore,” he ied. ”i --
i've won the house cup fryffindor.”
quirrell cursed again.
”get out of the way,” he said. as harry moved aside, he felt
the sorcerer's sto his leg. dare he make a break for it?
but he hadn't walked five paces befh voice spoke,
though quirrell wasn't moving his lips.
”he lies... he lies...”
”potter, e back here!” quirrell shouted. ”tell me the
truth! what did you just see?”
the high voice spoke again.
”let me speak to him... face-to-face...”
”master, you are nh!”
”i have strength enough... for this....”
harry felt as if devil's sing him to the spot. he
't move a muscle. petrified, he watched as quirrell reached
up ao un his turban. what was goiurban
fell away. quirrell's head lely small without it. then
he turned slowly o.
harry would have screamed, but he 't make a sound. where
there should have been a back to quirrell's head, there was a face,
the most terrible face harry had ever seen. it was chalk white with
glaring red eyes and slits for nostrils, like a snake.
”harry potter...” it whispered.
harry tried to take a step backward but his legs wouldn't move.
”see what i have bee?” the face said. ”mere shadow and
vapor ... i have form only when i share another's body... but
there have always been those willio their hearts and
minds.... uni blothehese past weeks... you
saw faithful quirrell drinking it for me i... and once
i have the elixir of life, i will be able to create a body of my
ohy don't you give me that stone in your pocket?”
so he khe feeling suddenly surged bato harry's
legs. he stumbled backward.
”don't be a fool,” she face.
