Annnnnd one more. This one is the prompt It always seems impossible until it's done.
Rose was excited as she and Albus sat at the Gryffindor table in the Great Hall. "Are we doing it then, Rose? For real?"
"Well, yes," she said, as if it was obvious. "We've practiced, and done it for the most part. Today, all we have to do is test ourselves and see if we're actually able to transform."
"You know,"" Albus began. "Becoming an Animagus is very difficult. What if we transform, and then we can't turn back? This could turn into an impossible situation."
"You're so negative, Albus," Rose told him, grinning. "It always seems impossible until it's done. Just be careful what you eat, remember. You might vomit if you're not careful during the transformation.
They finished their dinner, and slipped away from the Great Hall and up to the empty classroom they'd used the whole time they were practicing their transformation.
"All right," Rose said. "Remember the incantation for the first full transformation?"
"Yeah," Albus said, seeming to be breathless. He was taking short quick breaths. "Amato Animo Animato Animagus."
"Right, then," Rose said. She was also nervous, but she knew to hide it. She would just make Albus more nervous. "Let's do it."
The pair of them took out their wands. They'd done this every day for the last two years, but this time seemed different. It was the last time. After this, they would no longer need to recite a spell to become Animagi. The tip of Rose's wand touched the space of her shirt that covered her heart. She and Albus spoke in unison.
"Amato Animo Animato Animagus."
Rose felt herself changing. The ceiling seemed to go higher up, as her form shrunk. She noticed Albus changing too, but barely.
Finally, the transformation stopped. "Al, you all right?"
In front of her sat a squirrel. "Albus, you're a squirrel! What am I?"
The squirrel looked at her. Rose could tell she was bigger than Albus, but what was she? "You're gorgeous, Rose. You're a fox!"
Rose lifted a red paw to see sharp claws. "This is really cool."
