So professor Stewart was in! Noelle grinned brightly and made her way into the professor's office with a little finger wave. "Of COURSE I'd be here. I would have came yesterday but I figured I needed to be at my welcoming party for the new lions." It was tradition.

She went into the office and took a look around. It was the same as it been the last few years. Noelle was excited that Professor Stewart was staying around. It was a good thing that she was being taught animagi by one professor. It made it easier plus their bond was stronger.

"So do I finally get to transform??" Noelle asked excitedly as she took a seat in the chair she'd sat in every year. Her eyes looked over at the professor excitedly, wanting to know the good news.

"Or do I need to do something else?" Of course.... she did have some confessing to do. "Also, for the last 2-3 weeks before we came back to school... I may not have been STRICT with my training." She'd almost decided to quit everything all together. Okay, so she DID. But then with some convincing and soul searching, she found her way back.
