Harry 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. Later, 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.
