Background
Fawkes is a phoenix and friend of Albus Dumbledore. Phoenixes burst into flame when it is time for them to die, but then become reborn. They can carry heavy loads and their tears have healing powers.
During the events of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002)
Harry Potter walks into Dumbledore's office and sees Fawkes and The Sorting Hat. Harry asks The Sorting Hat if he was put in the right house and The Sorting Hat tells him he would have done well in Slytherin. Harry walks up to Fawkes who erupts in flames and falls to ashes. Dumbledore tells Harry phoenixes bursts into flames when they die, but are then reborn from the ashes. In the Chamber of Secrets, Fawkes flies into the Chamber and drops The Sorting Hat onto the ground. Tom Riddle calls the Basilisk to him and it starts to chase Harry. Fawkes flies and helps Harry by clawing out the Basilisk's eyes. Harry escapes from the Basilisk and the Sword of Gryffindor materializes inside The Sorting Hat. Harry grabs it and uses it to kill the Basilisk, but is wounded in the process. As he is dying from the venom of the Basilisk, he takes the tooth that was impaled into his arm and stabs Tom Riddle's journal with it, destroying the manifestation of Tom Riddle and the journal. Ginny Weasley wakes up and Fawkes sheds a tear on Harry's wound, neutralizing the venom. Fawkes then flies all of them back to the surface.
