... carefully into a landing that was not very smooth but he knew he would get it right in the next try or two. Harry changed back to himself in about fifteen seconds, much faster than changing into the gryphon. He asked the room for some water to drink and a chair and small table appeared with a glass of water. He sat down for a breather and drank it quickly. He had worked up a thirst and felt tired in some muscles he did not know he had. The door opened and in walked Dumbledore and McGonagall. Harry put down his empty glass and stood to greet his Professors. The table, chair, and glass all disappeared after he stood up. "Hello Professor. I am glad you could make it." "So am I Harry. Minerva told me that you made your animagus transformation on the very first try. That is most impressive Harry. I do not recall anyone else being able to do that." "Really? Well, if someone is going to be different it seems it will always be me. However, I am glad that I did not have to toil over this for a long period of time. Getting it on the first try suits me just fine. Makes me wonder what was so hard about it all." "Indeed, Harry. I guess it was fairly easy for you. Nevertheless, it is an amazing feat. Now, I believe you will need to show me this animagus of yours because Minerva refuses to tell me what animal you can become." "I will walk over here a little ways so you will be able to see me better when I change." Harry walked away from Dumbledore about twenty steps and turned back around. ...

I am sure Minerva told you how extremely rare it is for an animagus to be a magical creature but I guess I should expect no less from you Harry." Harry wished for a large mirror on the wall and one appeared. He walked over and took a good look at himself. He saw exactly what he saw in his vision. He was so big, standing taller than a large horse. He could see the scar and his emerald green eyes. He then leaped into the air and flew around for a bit before coming back down for a much smoother landing. He changed back into himself in about 5 seconds. "Very impressive, Mr. Potter" said McGonagall. "You have already significantly shaved off a lot of time to make your transformations. With a bit more practice you will get it down to a second or less going both ways. I suspect since you are going home for the holidays you will have ample room to practice." "Yes, Professor. I thought I would spend some time working on my transformation but I believe I am much further along than I originally thought I would be. Now I can use all the land and woods on my property to explore a bit in my new form. Of course, I will have to spend most of my time like this because my horse Rolly ...
