Another Draco Malfoy fan fic

Animagus

"You kept the mandrake leaf in your mouth for a month right?" Hermione asks for the fifth time.

"Yes Hermione if you sat with us at lunch more you would know this," I say.

"You know that I need to keep studying. Snape's essay is due in just 2 months," Hermione says.

Hermione always scares me when we talk about homework or school in general. She makes it seem like if we don't do the homework before it's even assigned, it's late. Luna sort of floats by, she treats the due dates like a suggestion. She's also secretly a genius, she knows so much about everything. They just aren't the right things.

Fred and George used to sort of do what they wanted to, and barely scrape by in the classes they didn't like. After I started dating Fred he started paying more attention in his classes. He said that he felt bad because he couldn't help me with things he was already supposed to know. I didn't know what to say to that and ended up choking on my mandrake leaf.

I do really well in school. I think it's because I find everything super interesting. When I went to that boarding school in America they didn't allow me to have any form of entertainment. The only thing I could do was bring every book about the wizarding world I could. So I already knew everything there was to know, and I had experienced muggle schooling. It was so boring and unnecessarily difficult. I did jump out the window a few times. Unfortunately witches heal faster than muggles. It did teach me a lot about aerodynamics and what not. Which comes handy in quidditch.

The reason I put even more effort into school is because Chang did quite well in her studies. Honestly Cho Chang does well in most things. Which is why I'm now top of my class excluding Hermione and taking quidditch lessons from Fred, George, and occasionally Harry. I'm good but Cho has more experience and less enemies.

"Alright let's take the potions," George says.

"I wonder what our animagus's will be," Luna says in her usual daze.

"I'm hoping for a bird, what about you Hermione," I ask.

"I'm not going to become an animagus, I need to stay out of trouble," she answers.

"You can't stay out of trouble, and be friends with the boy who lived," Fred says.

"Trouble magnet that one," George agrees.

"Well he is quite attractive," I add.

"Fred, are you going to let that slide," Hermione says in disbelief"

"Here we go again," George says.

Fred has gotten a lot of hate from being with me. He's come up with pretty creative comebacks. George knows about all of them. I do feel bad about the amount of time he spends as a third wheel but I can't tell him to get lost and I'm certainly not breaking up with Fred.

"Well it doesn't matter now, does it. He might be the chosen one but Ash chose me. Isn't that right wispy?" Fred says smugly.

"Yes yes we know moldy voldy chose Harry and I chose you. But don't get it twisted pretzel, you aren't that great," I say rolling my eyes.

"You two are strange," Hermione says.

"I think what's strange is us not taking the potion yet," I say.

"You and Luna can do it first," George says spilling his potion while Fred is taking his from Hermione.

"Great George, well I only made enough for the four of you," Hermione says frustrated.

"You can have mine George," Luna says.

"It's fine Luna, you'd probably do more with it than me. Fred why don't you give me yours," George says.

"Oh, I don't think wispy would ever forgive me if I did," Fred says.

"It's true, I wouldn't" I say.

"Fine then just take your potions," George grumbles.

Luna and I look at each other. I was a bit worried but Luna looks so peaceful and sure that any doubts I had melt away. I count to three and take the potion. 1 Snape barges into the room. 2 I'm filled with all the panic that Luna got rid of, only tripled. 3 take the potion and hide the evidence.

When I took the potion I'm sure I was supposed to feel different but all I felt was panic. I hadn't learned I real invisibility spell. Only the one I casted on myself when I met the twins. However that spell is useless now. If I make Snape confused everything time he looks at me, then that would only give him more reason to look. I don't even think Hermione learned an invisibility spell yet. Especially since Potter has an invisibility cloak. Hermione grabs the potion cauldron and tosses it out the window. This is Fred and Luna's last chance to take the potion, because as soon as the cauldron was tossed, Snape started heading towards the window. I glance at them and when I turn back around I see Snape. All I can think is don't make eye contact. As if that could save me. As if dumbly door didn't put some sort of tag that spells my name out whenever a professor looks at me.

Luna gets up and slowly takes her potion which she should have drunk, and pours it on Snape. I don't know what I thought was going to happen. Snape just seemed angry. But after Fred poured his potion on him he might as well have seen Potter smile. This was the time to run, I grab Luna and we all run out of the classroom as fast as we could. I still didn't understand why no one else took the potion. Hermione didn't want to break more rules but Luna had the chance and if Fred and George had kept their potions safe they would have gotten one too.

"Well go on then, pat least show us it worked," Hermione says.

She's probably hoping the detention she's going to get will be worth it.

The strange range of emotions I have right now are shadowed by my curiosity. Sure I did want to know why no one else took the potion but I also wanted to know what would happen to me now that I took it. I sort of imagine transforming and then I do. I feel every part of me changing one at a time but also all at once. I'm a phoenix. A strange looking phoenix. I'm blue instead of red and cold instead of hot. I've never even heard of an ice phoenix and by the look on Luna's face neither has she. I really hope Hermione doesn't think we discovered a new species. I do not want to do another pointless research paper.

"Wicked" Fred and George chime in.

We did end up getting detention. I really wish that I had just shown them the RoR or at least told the twins to use the map. Detention was not fun, we had to wax the great hall using coal. If I didn't enjoy alchemy so much it would have been impossible.

Guys if this doesn't fit the storyline it's okay. That's the entire reason I put not Canon in the description.
