"Who can tell me about animagus?" Hermione's hand immediately shot in the air, "Yes Miss Granger."
"Animagus, plural animagi, are wizards or witches whom have the power to transfigure themselves into the animal that represents their soul best"
"Correct Miss Granger, ten points for doing your homework."
"Stupid mudblood," sneered Malfoy from behind her.
"Shove it ferret!" fired Harry and Ron.
"Just leave him," Mione reprimanded.
"Class! I demand order in my classroom! Now back to the lesson, can anyone tell me if animagus forms can change?"
This time a random Ravenclaw girl spoke up, "Yes Mam, if someone's character changes so drastically, then their animagus form changes, their patronus form can change too, but it is always unique to them, like a fingerprint, it always has one distinctive feature that makes it different from other patronuses of the same species, so the animagus and patronus form of the person do not always have to match."
"Very good, five points to Ravenclaw, now for your semester project, we will be working on your animagus capabilities, and hopefully by the end of the year many of you will be registered animagi."
Hmm. Hermione thought, this will be a great year, and I will be an animagus! I wonder if my animagus form will still be an otter, I would love to be able to swim and enjoy life in that sleek body.
And with that she just smiled happily to herself and decided to do all the work she could to achieve the goal she had just set for herself.
"Now class, first begin with a patronus form to help us get some insight into your inner self, you will find you animal form and write a two rolls of parchment about your thoughts on what your animal says about you." The whole class groaned, except for two people, Hermione of course, but strangely, Fred Weasly had a whimsical look on his face and looked like he had an excited spark in his humorous blue eyes.
Hermione had just noticed the two older Weasleys in the class then remembered that the two transferred in when they found out the fifth years were learning to transform themselves into animagi. She watched as the two preformed the spell in perfect unison and happiness spread across their faces when two wonderful bushy foxes sprung out of their wands and started running around the class knocking over students and desks alike. Georges' fox seemed to be the calmer of the two, more of a follower she remarked, while Fred's fox had the gall to run under McGonagal's skirts. Hermione's own otter began to frolicwith the two foxes to the astonishment and delight of her and the twins, who simultaniously winked at her when they saw her surprised face.
'I think this will be my favorite class,' Mione thought to herself and her smile widened when her otter teased Malfoy's… wait did she see that right? A ferret? His patronus is a ferret? He would never hear the end of this.
