... approval. Harry smiled at the praise. After they quieted down, Harry got their attention again. "I would like to try one last thing before we quit for the evening. I know you are all magically tired but this will give me an idea of where you are at now." Harry conjured six chairs that made a semi-circle with Simon and Henry at the head so they could be a part of the circle. Harry sat in the middle directly facing Simon and Henry with his friends on each side of him. "Please have a seat." After they were all seated Harry began. "Tonight, since you made some progress, I want to see if any of you can transform your left hand. Close your eyes and picture your animagus. Pull up that vivid picture you memorized with all the detail. Concentrate on the left front paw, hoof, claw, talons, whatever it is for your animal. Get it clearly in your head. Do you have it?" All five nodded. "Good. Now I want you to concentrate on changing your left hand. Just your left hand. Concentrate just on that. While concentrating pull up a little magic and push it toward that image you want to achieve. If you have to build up some magic first do it but remember it only takes a little for this."

I would suggest though that you do not try more of the transformation unless I am with you. It is not likely anything bad will happen but there is a possibility so let's play it safe." Neville nodded and continued to examine his paw along with the others who wanted a look. Everyone heard a gasp behind them so turned and saw Ginny looking at her left hand that was now an eagle claw with very large talons. "Way to go Gin!" exclaimed Harry. "That is very impressive. You have come a long way in just one night. You gained a lot of ground." "Thanks Harry. Wow!" she said looking at her talons. "The same goes for you Gin. Do not attempt a full transformation unless I am with you. We need to play it safe with this project." "I won't Harry. You have brought me this far and I am sure I will need you the rest of the way." Ginny smiled a big smile at him. Everyone came ...
