~2am that evening~
"YVETTE!!! WAKE UP!" Clarissa shouted in Yvette's ear that evening. "W-wha why?" Yvette asked still half asleep. "There's a storm!!" Clarissa said opening the curtains to reveal a raging storm outside. "Why does that make a difference?" Yvette asked slowly climbing out of bed. "Animagus you idiot, what we have been working on since school started," Clarissa said whacking Yvette in the head with her animagus book. "Oh yeah forgot, better get going then shouldn't we?" Yvette said fully out of bed now. Clarissa shook her head in disbelief walking over to her wardrobe. She pulled out a dark cloak with a hood and then proceeded to change into a hoodie and jeans. Yvette changed into her leather jacket as it was 'waterproof' and also pulled a dark cloak with a hood on too. They were all set to finally become an animagus.
The sneaked outside no one patrolling the corridors as it was freezing because of the storm (curse January weather) so the girls made an easy escape to the edge of the forest. Suddenly lightning stroked near where the girls were standing and Clarissa shouted"quick we need to get to the potion it says immediately after the first lightning!" The girls then started running in a straight line where they knew their potions were as fast as they could the rain beating down on them soaking them through thunder cackling and lightning shining. Eventually, they made it to the spot where they had hidden the vials.
Clarissa carefully started digging then up with her hands, scooping up the dirt. The vials were revealed and had turned a blood red colour just like the book said! Clarissa cheered. "It worked!" Yvette said taking her vial. "So, now all that is left is to drink?" Clarissa asked a sudden nervousness flashing across her face. They hesitated for a second, then downed the vials in one gulp. "Amato Animo Animato Animagus," They both said in unison and the strangest sensation overcame them.
Yvette felt strange she could feel the second heart beat in her chest but was determined to stay calm, there was no backing out now. Suddenly, a fiery pain shot through her and she winced, hearing Clarissa's wince a second after, but it was muffled as though far away. Not much occurred except from the blinding pain and the second heartbeat, but then an image started forming in her mind, just as the book said it would. It was fuzzy at first and then started to take the form of a bird. She did not recognise it immediately and kept imagining herself as the bird, but nothing seemed to happen. Suddenly, it clicked in her mind it was a phionex! She had read about them in: fantastic beats and where to find them, they were magical creatures which could technically live forever and had healing properties. Their tail feathers could be used as wand cores as well. She was shocked for a moment, a phionex were they not the definition of purity and innocence. Weren't they fully good and pure, something she would never describe herself as. Even as a young 13 year old she understood her fatal floor, power and cruelty when given power (a/n does this sound a little too much like someone we know...?). Then she willed herself to change again.
Her body started changing and her arms fanned out into wings and her legs became shorter. Her mouth turning into a beak. When the transformation was complete Yvette looked at her surroundings, her eyes had a strange orange tint to them, but they were definitely sharper. She looked around to see an unimpressed eagle looking at her, who she could only assume was Clarissa. "Took you long enough," Clarissa said easily morphing into human form. Yvette glared at her, or tried too apparently phionexes weren't made to glare at people. She waddled over to her wand and willed herself to change back. It was difficult at first but then she felt her wings becoming arms yet again and her legs growing taller. "How long did I take?" Yvette asked. "An hour, I thought you were dead," Clarissa said. "That's why you are already acting like you've been able to do this for years," Yvette said, it had only felt like a couple of seconds but I guess time had passed quicker than she thought. "Oh yeah and also in the time you were surrounded by animagus mist Dumbledore found us." Clarissa said gesturing to Dumbledore who was behind her, apparently Phionexes didn't have that sharp eyes then. "Are we going to be expelled?" Yvette asked looking very worried. "Oh no, but I think maybe we should keep this quiet, Miss Granger let me know of your whereabouts and I wanted to make sure you didn't, uh die during the transformation." Dumbledore said calmly. "Darn Hermione," Yvette cursed under her breath. "Miss Clancy I was wondering if we could have a little chat, in my office perhaps?" Dumbledore asked. Yvette nodded and they started exciting the forest Clarissa flying out on her own.
Yvette was very tense when entering Dumbledore's office, she hadn't really done any pranks since before Christmas so it couldn't be about that, she had killed a moth with an illegal curse, but it was a moth, was she going to go to Azkaban because of a moth, that would suck big time. "I wanted to have a chat to you about your animagus form," Dumbledore said desturing for her to sit down. Yvette nodded, it wasn't about the moth thank goodness. Dumbledore then waved his wand saying "Expecto Patronum!" suddenly a beautiful phionex burst out of his wand and started flying around the room. "Wow," Yvette said looking at it in awe. "If you ever learn the patronus charm I'm sure yours will take the same form as mine, just like your animagus," Dumbledore said putting away the phionex. "So your patronus takes the same form as your animagus?" Yvette asked. "Usually," Dumbledore clarified. "But, Miss Clancy I didn't invite you in here to talk about phionexes I wanted to talk with you because I see much of you in myself, did you know a phionex symbolises rebirth and new life, taking another path, choosing another side," Dumbledore said in his usual riddle fashion. "No," Yvette said now very intruiged,this was sounding a lot like her.
"Well then Miss Clancy, let me tell you a story," Dumbledore said.

hahahahhah cliffhangerrrr. lol so do you like the interpretation of a phionex I took there the whole 'new life' 'changing side' kinda thing. Also, yeah Clarissa is an eagle. It symbolises smarts, courage and also It's just really like majestic and stuff so I just chose it. Uh, yeah I kinda didn't realise till now how similar Dumbledore and Yvette are, like what the hell. So i mean I legit just added the office scene (thank you Hermione for letting Dumbledore know, you little idiot) I also am going to make Kathryn similar to Dumbledore too (I mean they both had a thing for evil phsycopaths so that is something they have in common). But hope you enjoyed (I still need more ideas though so if you have any let me know!!) Also sorry if you have a different idea for Yvette's animagus, what is done is done, but love y'all
