"Five points, Grace, and he was missing the index finger from his right hand, and in his rat state that became the middle one of his paw."
Faye stopped pacing. "Pettigrew was a member of the Hogwarts' famous Marauders. Who were the other members, and what were their forms? Special points go to why they became Animagus." she hoped someone would know.

Boggleworth lept to his feet crying "oooh ohh I know that one! Sorry for hooting like a gibbon, erm there was Sirius Black big dog that suited him, James Potter...err a stag cause Harry's patronus was a stag and Lupin well he wasn't an animagus but he was a werewolf and they became animagus to help him with his problem every full moon, they took him to the Shrieking shack! That's why they thought it was haunted cause o' Lupin!" he gasped for breath. "wow that research payed off!" he chuckled

Faye's eyes were wide as she tried to keep up with Boggleworth, counting the facts off on her fingers. "Yes, yes, well done, Boggleworth! My, I didn't think anyone would know all that. I expect you've picked it up in history of magic, no? I should make my questions harder." she smiled. "Well five points for each fact, and an extra ten for knowing that Remus Lupin was a werewolf and that was their reason, so forty points to Hufflepuff!" she said happily.

"Cor Blimey Miss! Cheers, but I didn't learn it from History of Magic! No way, I'm just curious about Animagi, though they say curiousity killed the cat, it sure won't kill me! It's probably the first reseach I've ever done, from this dusty old vloume, what were it called, hmm let me think...Animagi that'd be it!" he chortled.

Girty had been amazed with the lesson and did a small clap when Bog gained points for there house. she smiled around the room looking at the other students waiting for the professor to continue. Girty felt like she was learning so much.

"Passion beyond reason, I see." she praised.
"It seems you all know your stuff when it comes to Hogwarts' Animagus - well, its unregistered ones at least - but can anyone tell me any other famous Animagus?"

"Yes, Minerva McGonagall of the Potter era was one of them. What was her form, anyone? There is also another of that time."

Girty had opened her mouth to shout out but Grace got there first. She smiled lightly and waited for another question i hope she could answer a question. But the only problem was she could not think of another one.

Faye nodded and pointed her silvery white wand at Grace. "Five points," she awarded. "And the other?" she pressed. She turned to Girty. "Perhaps you shall know, Girty? She worked for the Daily Prophet."

Girty opened her mouth again in hope it would roll of her tongue. "Oh Rita Sketa...was it? She was a beetle" She doubted herself but in the back of her mind it seemed correct.

"Perfect, Girty! Rita Skeeter the beatle." Faye clapped. "Have five points. I never did ask you what you fancied turning into, Girty. What animal do you dream of becoming?" Faye smiled patiently at the Hufflepuff.

Girty blinked slowly. "I...I never really thought about it before. As long as it is not a swan i will be fine." She smiled gingerly and looked to the floor.

Faye watched Girty intently. She seems so nervous and wrong footed. Perhaps she doubts that she can do this?
"Not a swan, you say? And why is that, dear?" she asked kindly. "You need not worry. I know you can become what you wish, Girty. You're a Hufflepuff." she smiled encouragingly, placing a hand on her shoulder.
