:: Rogue blew his whistle as the groups divided into their assigned are. He called all of the Animagus over to this clearing. He whipped out his wand and conjured up a huge blanket for the students to sit on. The sun was shinning brightly, it was perfect for what he had prepared. Plus, they were surrounded by a few trees, giving them nice shade. ::

"Take a seat everyone," he said in a loud voice. He looked at his clipboard to review his notes. "Okay. First things first. In today's lesson, we will be identifying what animal forms you all can tranform into. We will be concentrating on exactly how to transform, concentration is everything. For most of you, seeing as you are all Level One Animagi's, the senses and feelings of the animal you transform into will be very much alive and will . . . .probably take over. You'll have to learn to control those senses and keep your human mind and such.

"So first things first things first, we're going to go around in the circle and each of you will answer these questions:

What animal can you transform to?
Have you ever transformed?
If so, how often?
Have you ever experienced any problems transforming?

"Be honest and answer releasticlly. Finally, could you try and transform into your Animagus form? If you can't that's okay too because you're here to learn."

OOC: Remember, you're all Level 1 Aniamgus's so you're not perfect!

Emily sat down on the carpet, she was the first to tell the group her answers, "Okay I transform into a Raven, I have only transformed a few times, i have had problems with controlling myself" Emily said smiling at the group.

Rogue took these notes on his clipboard. He had a file with all of this back at the school, but he had left it sitting on his desk.

"Okay, good Emily. I forgot to add this but could you try and demonstrate yourself transforming into your Animagus form? If you can't, that's okay too, you're here to learn how to do that."

Emily grinned at professor "i'll try" she smirked Emily stood up and took a deep breath before instantly turing into and uncontrolable Raven.

brooke stood up next. "ima monkey cuase of my personality. I have transformed a few times and I still have some monkey qualities after I trans form. " Brooke said. Brooke transformed herself into a monkey.

merlin looks at everyone*hmm* he thinks, well i transform into a white wolf, never done it yet though, i hope to gain more confidence in transforming

Professor Rogue - Chaperon

Rogue jotted down a few more notes as Emily, Brooke and Merlin answered his question.

"Okay Emiy," he said, starring at the raven. The bird was completly out of control, flapping it's wings wildly and screaming loudly. "Emily. EMILY! Try to change back!" Rogue shouted.

As the girl hesitated, Rogue moved on to the other two students.

"Brooke, very nice, however, you'll have to slow down in your transformation. It was WAY too quick. And you'll have to tell me if you have control over the monkey personality."
{OOC: In other words Brooke, describe your transformation a bit more. Describe yourself shrinking, furr growing on your skin, your tail sprotting out, etc.}

"Aw, Merlin. Hmm, this is interesting. You've never transformed before. Well. . . could you try to do it for me right now? Let's see what happens. Clear your thoughts of everything around you. Take a deep breath. Now, picture in your mind the white wolf. . .keep that picture of the wolf in your mind and we'll see what happens from there."

Emily thought deep inside,changing back was always the worse bit she thought, she consentrated harder than ever and had only just managed to change back a little way off the carpet professor had put down.

merlin took in what professor told him*i can do this said merlin* he cleared his mind and took deep breath *white wolf* merlin kept imange in his mind, just as he did he felt a pain in his chest and fell to his hands and knees*i can do this* he shouted* next min he felt his face transforming wolf like, then his feet , merlin also felt fur comming onto his body, his eyes turned blue and a long bushy tail appeard, atlast there stood a pure white wolf stareing at professor and growling but stood watching everyone

MJ

Now it was now her own turn to answear the questions. "Well, I can transform to an eagle and I have done it before though... I can't fly cause of one funk wing and I can't take one step without falling over cause I also have a funk leg when I transform. I haven't doen it much to tell the truth... I'm dead clumsy and useless at any thing I do though so that could be an answear to why I'm such a screwed up bird? I've also noticed I'm not me when I transform... I have a tendensy to go in search of fish..." MJ closed her eyes and concentrated holding the image of a beautiful bird in her mind. She felt herself shrink and feathers start sprouting from her body. Her felt pain all over and then... a beautiful bird stood there. It atempted to take a step but because of the leg thing fell painfully over.

Well my name's Leona, and I change into a Lioness," she blushes and looks around "I've only changed into it once, and I nearly killed a person," she looks down than jumps back up, "I SAID NEARLY!," her hands are up defensivly.
