I do not own Harry Potter. I only own Tiffani.

Story Start

I was excited to see another type of magic class today. Severus was getting ready in his room while I was pacing in front of the door that led to the hallway. He stopped and looked at me in confusion before shaking his head.

"You are the strangest cat," he said and opened the door so we could both make our way to the great hall. Of course, we went through the secret way that teachers use.

"That's because I'm not a cat," I muttered and smiled when I saw the teacher table, which I ran to and jumped up on with no problem. My food and water bowl were already waiting for me at Severus' usual spot. He took his seat and greeted Albus and Hagrid, who had already gave me a pet on the head or a scratch under my chin. I finished my food and jumped off the table to go see Draco and his friends before I had to go to classes with Minerva. I really was curious to see what Transfiguration was.

"Hello Lady," Draco said after I jumped up onto the bench beside him. He laughed when instead of jumping on the table like he thought I would, I jumped into his lap and demanded pets. "Is my godfather not paying enough attention to you?" he asked with a laugh as he glanced from me to the teacher table.

"Oh no, he's great. I just know you'll pet me if I meow enough. You cannot resist my cuteness," I meowed back before laughing at myself. "I really need to quit being a cat," I thought and jumped off Draco's lap when I heard Severus call my name.

I made my way to the teacher table and saw Severus standing beside Minerva. She held out her arms to me and chuckled when I jumped into her arms. If Severus trusted her then so would I. Severus had been kind to me so far and so I had no reason to doubt him. Minerva assured Severus that I would be fine before she left the great hall. I looked back at Severus over her shoulder before we disappeared from view. Minerva went up a few flights of stairs, which were the scariest thing I had ever seen.

"Why are they moving?" I screeched which of course came out as a couple of hisses.

Minerva chuckled and pet my head. "Calm down, Lady. There is nothing to worry about," she said and I quit hissing, but I eyed the stairs with unease. I definitely did not want to deal with these crazy magical stairs on my own. If Severus tried to make my walk up them, then I would cling onto one of his legs if he wouldn't carry me up them.

Minerva got off the stairs after a few more flights and started walking towards her classroom. Her classroom had large windows letting in a lot of natural light. It was a totally different environment than the potion classroom. Also the students' tables were all on the same level of the floor instead of being on raised levels like in Severus' classroom. She set me down and let me wander around the room since no students were here yet. I jumped up on one the students' tables and gasped when Minerva was nowhere to be seen. I looked all over the room before seeing another cat.

"You're a cat person too," I meowed loudly as I jumped off the table and ran over to jump on Minerva's teacher desk at the head of the room. "You turned into a cat. Can you turn me back into a person?" I said excitedly but the other cat just tilted its head at me. "You are Minerva, right?" I asked again but the cat just acted like it still didn't understand me. I kept talking to the other cat but it still would not act like it knew what I was saying.

By the time the students came into the classroom, I was ready to start shaking the other cat the best I could. I would probably end up fighting the cat on accident instead of just shaking it. After all the students took their seats, the other cat jumped off the teacher desk and turned back into Minerva. My jaw dropped and I really did smash my face into her desk.

"You've got to be kidding me, she was the cat, and yet she didn't understand anything I said," I practically cried with my face still smashed into the desk.

"Professor, is Professor Snape's cat alright?" one of the female students asked from the front of the room.

Minerva glanced back at her desk and at this point I was lying on the desk with my paws over my face as I yowled pitifully. "Honestly, I'm not sure. However, we have a lesson to review," she said and a few of the students quietly groaned.

Eventually I stopped trying to crush my face with my paws and I looked at what the students were doing. The students each had a small cup on their desks and they were waving their wands at it. I jumped up when one of the students transformed the cup into a little bird. The student was so happy and she smiled at Minerva before looking at me nervously. "I'm not going to eat it. It was just a cup," I thought as I sat down on the table so the student would stop worrying. Minerva did glance at me but she smiled and nodded when I didn't go towards any of the cups that turned into birds. I was nervous though when one of the cups grew wings but that was it.

"Magic is scary and difficult," I thought as I glanced at the student who was struggling to turn the cup fully into a bird. "Good luck," I meowed before moving to sit in Minerva's chair. I wanted a nap and out of the way of any stray spells.
