37. Animagus
September 2, 1993
It scared Astoria the first time she saw Professor McGonagall turn into an Animagus. On her first day of Transfiguration, McGonagall gave the first years instructions on what to do for class, turned around and next thing was she was a cat, her Animagus.
Astoria’s eyes were wide when she saw this happen. McGonagall gave her a look of acknowledgement, and then continued to watch her Transfiguration class. After getting over the shock, Astoria turned back to her class work. Astoria never forgot that. That was the first time she has seen someone turn into an Animagus, by every step.
