Dani pulled out her wand. So far Transfiguration hadn't been her top subject, but she was going to do this. "Plumexer!" Nothing happened. She poked the air with her wand. Lame. She was gonna do this.

With a little less confidence she waved her wand again "Plumexer!" Once again, nothing. She frowned at her wand. What was she doing wrong. She looked over at Anna and noticing how the Gryffindor Head Girl did it, she mimicked the motion and said. "Plumexer!"

A bright red feather popped out of her wand. It was the exact feather she had pictured in her mind. The phoenix feather was shiny and bright. She wondered if the one in her wand was just as pretty.
