By the time Albus and McGonagall had arrived, Ginny had already
transfigured herself a couch to lie on out of the quill in her robes and
fallen asleep. When she awoke she saw the very stern look of McGonagall
glaring over her and clearing her throat. Behind her Albus stood mildly
amused.
"Miss. Weasely, now that you are up, would you kindly get rid of the sofa and follow us?"
Ginny saw the amused smile on Albus' face and she smiled becoming slightly amused at the transfiguration's teacher's demeanor. Ginny stood up and the couch flew back to its original form and then placed itself in her robes. For her part, McGonagall did look a bit shocked at the lack of spell or wand but she quickly turned and headed toward the new opening in the wall.
Albus held it open as Ginny walked past him and he whispered, "She insisted on stopping by the library and getting every book on animagi she could."
Ginny stifled a giggle. When they got to the room, McGonagall took out several small squares and tapped them all with her wand, "Reducio!"
Soon there were about twenty books in front of her. Ginny smiled up at the professor as she began to speak. "I refuse to teach you a thing until you read every book here. I happen to know you are a very gifted witch, but I will not risk your life or well being merely on a "hunch" that you will get it right." With that she glanced disapprovingly at Albus who only smiled back at her.
Ginny poked around the stack reading each title, "I've already read these."
McGonagall looked very surprised which made Albus chuckle. "You've read all these?"
Ginny smiled at her warmly. "I love to read anything about magic. I eat it up. That's all I do on my summers, even if I don't do it much here." Ginny cleared her throat and glanced at Albus, "Can we begin now?"
After three hours of turning herself from a cat to a bird to a dog, then to a rabbit, she was worn out. McGonagall couldn't keep the shock off her face. Albus kept encouraging her and was proud of her skill to transform into anything she wanted.
For Ginny, the experience was wonderful. She loved being able to experience the views of different creatures. Especially a bird. It took a lot out of her though. She felt very tired and as though she would not be able to make it all the way to her dorm without passing out after they were done. She wondered why she hadn't tried that earlier, but remembered that she had been too unsure of herself and afraid before. Now she wasn't afraid of anything, she felt invincible, and with a tingling sensation, she realized she was. With that last thought running through her head, she fell asleep on her bed without getting undressed.
Draco had turned the corner just in time to hear McGonagall clearing her throat and glaring over Ginny who was lying on a fluffy brown couch that seemed to be made out of feathers. He quickly doubled back and peeked around the corner. What he saw shocked him. He saw Ginny wake up and smile up at the annoying bitch of a teacher and then at Dumbledore who had this silly look on his face.
Suddenly she stood up, and without anyone saying a word or flicking a wand, the couch Ginny had been resting on transfigured to a quill and flew into Ginny's robes. His eyes flew to McGonagall, thinking she surely must have transfigured it and all, but she had no wand and she looked shocked too. Then his gaze flew to the headmaster who only smiled at the other teacher and then they disappeared into a wall.
'What the fuck was that?' He felt uneasy as he headed down to his dorm. He knew there was always something off about that Weasel, but now he really knew it.
