Putting down her Harry potter book Sophia looked at herself in the mirror. She had just reread the part about Tonks being a metamorphagus wishing it was possible, because her new haircut was terribly uneven. Falling back onto the bed her imagination took hold as she fell asleep, dreaming of being able to change her appearance at will.
The next morning she was woken by her mother lightly shaking her telling her she and her father were leaving for work. Sophia mumbled a goodbye and got up to get ready for her day. As she brushed her hair she couldn't believe her eyes her hair was perfectly even in length. 'what the hell!' she though to herself. 'hmmm I wonder if I'm a . . . Never mind That's crazy'. For a second she had wondered if being a metamophagus was actually possible. "gee I must be losing it" she muttered to herself and almost instantly countered herself with " your just as sane as I am." She smirked to herself and went to eat breakfast while trying to decide what to do for the day. She decided to take a walk down to the park with her sketch pad and her replica wand she had bought at the Wizarding world of Harry Potter wich she brought everywhere with her.(not that her parents knew of though they would think she hand gone mad)
As she locked the door she noticed an unfamiliar cat with odd spectacle like markings around it eyes sitting on the window sill. A memory of McGonagall's animagus form flashed through her mind before she shrugged it off and started the short walk to the park. As Sophia sat on a bench and opened her sketchpad she noticed the cat had followed her. She took a candy bar from her pocket and broke off a piece "come here little kitty" she cooed the cat gracefully jumped up beside her and looked at her with oddly intelligent eyes. She broke off a piece of the bar and put it in front of the cat to eat. She then started eating the rest of the bar as she tried to decide what she could draw as she came to the last bite, and gave it to the cat she decided she would draw the cat or as much of the as she could before it decided to leave. As her hand began moving swiftly across the page the cat sat up a bit as if it was watching her progress. A while later she had a very detailed sketch of the cat, which was still sitting next to her. Sarcastically she said "do want to see the finished product?" to her surprise the cat jumped up onto the table and looked down at the drawing before it. "well aren't you a smart cat, I think I'm gonna call you Professor, because you remind me of someone in my favorite book." The cat looked up at her with knowing eyes before looking back down at the paper. "You see professor, it's about witches and wizards, and the adventures of Harry potter. I even have a fake wand" she said swiftly taking it from were it was previously hidden in her boot. "I take it almost everywhere even though it's not real." the cat gave her a knowing look, as she replaced her wand and gathered her things to head back to her house. The strange cat did not follow and she did not see it for the rest if the day.
When her parents got home around 5:30 she helped make dinner, and as they were all sitting down for dinner there was a nock at the door. Sophia went to answer it only to be startled to see a woman with graying hair pulled back into a tight bun, and glasses perched on the bridge of her nose. She bore a striking resemblance to what Sophia imagined Minerva McGonagall would look like, she tried to shake her thoughts, as she politely said "hello how can I help you?" the woman smiled slightly and in a scottish accent replied
"is this the residence of a Sophia Weaver?"
"that would be me ma'am" Sophia answered.
"Very well then are your parents in Ms. Weaver? I wish to speak to them as well as you." Sophia nodded and motioned for the woman to step inside.
"Please make yourself at home Mrs. . . ."
"McGonagall." the woman answered making Sophia nearly choke, and her eyes to widen. She simply nodded before practically bolting out of the living room to grab her parents.
"Who was at the door dear?" her Mother asked.
"A woman who would like to speak to us. Her name is Mrs. Mcgonagall. She's sitting right in the living room."
Both her parents followed her back to the living room where the woman was still standing there, and shook her parents hands as she introduced herself this time as PROFESSOR McGonagall which made Sophia snicker internally. They all had a seat and the woman began to speak. "I am here to inform you that your daughter is a witch, a very powerful one at that. She has been chosen to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Should She accept the offer I will need to accompany her in buying school supplies tomorrow and attaining a portkey that will take her to kings cross station on September the first." There was a stunned pause as the information registered and hope bloomed in Sophia's chest. Sophia's eyes were as big as quarters and her mouth was slightly ajar. While her parents looked at the woman like she had grown two heads, then Sophia composed herself slightly before speaking.
"Not that I don't believe you or anything but would you mind proving you're a witch?" she questioned polit The 'professor' simply took out what Sophia knew to be a wand with the word Lumos the tip of her wand lit brightly and then said a quick nox to extinguish the light. She then got up shifted into cat form and pranced around the room before changing out of her animagus form and sat back down. Sophia just grinned widely at her parents never in her wildest dreams did she ever imagine that witches and wizards were real and even better yet she was one of them!
