"Who's idea was it to come here?" Gemma asked as the four students shuffled inside, the snow blowing in with them. Pippa hudled next to her best friend, the cold nearly tearing her apart as her teeth rattled.
"Garron's." Liam answered, shaking his long black hair and sending flecks of snow everywhere. They took off their robes and hung them on the hooks just inside the door.
"Come on," said Garron. They walked to the back of the room, finding a comfortable booth a good few feet away from the warm fire. Both girls sat across from the boys, Pippa shivering into Gemma's shoulder. Gemma smiled sincerely and rubbed her friend's arms.
"Are you going to make it?" She asked jokingly.
"The little Sparrow is freezing," Liam noted.
Garron gave Liam a slow burning look, flat and saying Don't start. Liam gave a glowing mirthful smile. After they ordered, a round of butterbeers, and an extra hot tea for Pippa who seemed about to shatter, Gemma spoke.
"So," she said. "Are we really going to try for the first time tonight?" Her eyes twinkled.
Garron sighed. "Yes..."
"O, sweet nightingale," Liam smiled. "And little sparrow, you both have come so far."
"It doesn't...hurt, does it?" Pippa asked.
Garron smiled sympathetically. "No, I promise."
"Good," she smiled, taking a large gulp of tea.
Gemma smiled with mischeif and joy before taking a swig of butterbeer. How she dreamed for weeks now to run through that forest at night...free and safe...
Liam caught the smile.

Pippa pulled her coat up around her shoulders again. She hated the cold. She took a huge swig of Butterbeer, trying to do anything to get herself warmed up again.
"Well, the first thing we did was discover the process of becoming an animagi." Garron explained, scooting his chair closer to Pippa.
"It was getting in tune with yourself and nature, and picturing yourself as an animal, not as a human." Liam started off, leaning across the table.
"And just as you do that, you'll see a color. It'll envelop you, and then you touch your wand to your head..." Garron deminstrated, closing his eyes, "And you're an animagus."
"What's the color?" Gemma said.
"Well... we figured out that it's different for every person. For instance," Liam said. He pointed to Garron. "His is a sort of wierd colored brown."
"It's like, oak," Garron said, carefully draping his cloak over Pippa's still shivering shoulders. "And what's yours again, Liam?"
"Black. But you should NEVER transform before you see your color," He said, ominously.

"It can't be that simple." Gemma blanched. Pippa sipped at her tea and butterbeer, switching on and off and watching the boys like a tennis match.
"Of course it isn't," Liam said in a swoop. "It takes practice, as does anything. There's some details in and out, but the main thing is that you have to really think about the behavior of an animal."
"How do we know what our animal is?" Pippa asked carefully.
"We found out that the basis of each person's animagi, depends on their views of animals in general." Garron supplied.
"So you mean depending on our opinions of animals, it'll determine what we change into?" Gemma asked, totally weirded out.
"Exactly," Liam said with a grin. "For instance, Garron's main thought of animals-what he based his hypothesis off of, was that animals are strong and sturdy. Unimaginably, his animal is a buck."
"Nine points, mind you." Garron said proudly. "Very rare."
"Well what was your thoughts, Mr. O'Hara?" Gemma asked coyly as she took a sip of her warm drink.
He smiled sincerely. "I believe animals are strong and fiersome, but loyal and friendly at the same time."
"Oh wow," Pippa's eyes widened. "But isn't that a combination of two views?"
"That's why his animal is mixed." Garron stated.
"What is it?" Gemma asked, with wondering curiosity.
"A dog," Liam said smiling.
"That looks like a wolf." Garron added winking.
"If you get good enough," Liam said. "You won't have to use your wands."
"That's how far we've broken through." Garron said nodding.
"Well," Pippa remarked. "That's nifty."

Animals are quick and clever, Pippa thought. I wonder what I will be?
"I want to try it now!" Gemma said, clutching her butterbeer in what looked like a death grip.
"So do I!" Pippa said, slamming her fist down on the table. Ouch, that hurt.
She shook out her fist.
"Well, you have to ease in first, you can't just start immediantly." Garron said.

"So, what's in the forest exactly?" Gemma asked, curiously.
"Well," Garron fidgited. "Some things...the Centaurs! And some other things."
Liam stared at his friend flatly. "You've got to work on being more persuasive."
"What could hurt us?" Gemma asked more firmly.
Liam looked up and answered, "So far, we're aware of some Acromantulas still around-none so big as Aragog, but bigger than your normal every day spider."
Pippa shivered. "I hate spiders."
"There's Thestrals, Unicorns, Fluffy and I believe Gwamp is still lurking about, but not many have seen him." Liam rubbed his chin. "Yes, and the out of the ordinary-BLEEDIN' 'ELL!"
Garron growled at his friend who now had his forehead to the table moaning at the pain in his shin.
Pippa looked quickly at Garron. "What're you hiding from us?" she asked curiously.
Gemma slid out of the booth as they talked.
"There's been some...'problems'." Garron said, uneasy.
"Like what?" Pippa pried.
"The reasons that we don't want you two coming with us." Garron said matter-of-factly.
Gemma came back, from outside, actually, and crossed the room. She had something that looked like a long dagger rapped in a cloth. The three looked up and when Liam saw she was coming to him, he swallowed. "Is it judgement day already?"
"Don't be silly," she brushed off, kneeling down beside his leg. She slipped the thin object up Liam's pant leg, smiled when he jumped, and made sure it wouldn't move while he was sitting.
"What in God's green earth is that?" Liam asked, touching his shin.
"An icecicle," Gemma supplied taking another sip of butterbeer, the spring green of her sweater making her eyes look like twinkling grey gems. "For the bruise that's sure to come."

After serving the kids their drinks, Madam Rosemerta made her way around the tables offering refills and picking up plates. Hearing Liam's outburst she almost dropped the dishes in fright. Turning to the group, she saw no real danger, she shrugged her shoulders and went back to work. Once finished her rounds she made her way towards the students.
"Is it just the drinks for today?" she asked them. "Or would ya's like ta order somethin' else?"

"Everything's wonderful." Gemma said, smiling with twinkling eyes.
Pippa nodded. "Thank you very much."

Madam Rosmerta smiled down at them and gave them a nod.
"Well is you's be needin' anything, just give a call." And she left to tend other customers.
