~Hogwarts: November 1972

Alexandria POV

I drag my fingers across the books about Transfiguration, I notice Helena sitting with a book, and sit by her. "What is it?" I ask, after Halloween, Maise decided to tell our small dorm her secret. Maise must've realized that we'd probably figure it out, especially after I found it out in our 1st year.

Floella, Helena, Emily, and I don't care that she's a werecat. We're currently trying to find ways to help her, it was a surprise to see the scars she had, she also told us that werecats are a lot rarer than werewolves.

"Animagi." Helena says, I look at her in confusion, "We can help Maise by becoming Animagi." She says. My eyes widen in realization, "Merlin, why didn't I think of that!" I say.

~Hogwarts: April 1973

Emily managed to get some of the ingredients for the Animagus potion, and I think Lupin's friends are starting to notice that the two are gone on full moons, but it's their secrets, so I won't tell them.

-Flashback

"Um. I need to tell you guys something." Maise says, I get up, and head to the door. I hold my wand out, "Silencio." I cast on the door, Maise gives me a thankful look. "What is it?" Floella asks her, Emily was looking at her in curiosity as well.

"I'm a-a w-w-werecat." She says before looking down, Emily and Floella look at Maise in confusion, "I knew." Helena answers. "You did?" Maise asks shyly, "You seem to forget that I'm a descendent of the founder of the Ravenclaw house." Helena says with a smile.

I notice Maise smile, "What's a werecat?" Emily asks, "There much like werewolves, but they transform into giant cats during full moons." Helena explains. "Why should we care if your a werecat? Your still our Maise." Floella says.

Maise looks up at us, her hair was a nervous yellow color, "You guys still want to be friends with me?" She asks. We all nod, and hug her, I can hear her tear up. We let go of her, and then her face starts to change.

Maise had long scars across her face, "Werecats are much rarer than werewolves, I was bitten when I was young girl by a werecat named Canis Tigrin." She explains.

-Flashback ends

~Hogwarts: End of June 1973

I sit with Helena, Maise, Floella, and Emily in our compartment. Helena takes out her wand, and points it at the door, "Silencio." She casts. "We have an idea about how to help you with your catty little problem." Emily says.

Maise looks at us in curiosity, "We become animagi." I say, Maise blinks at us. "I-I can't ask you guys to do that." She says, "Luckily, your not." Floella says with a grin, "We're your friends! We want to help you!" Helena says.

"And we do have the two smartest girls in our year." Floella adds, while pointing to Helena and I.
