As you enter, there is a closed cardboard box at the door. A note above it reads:
Quote:
Deposit them there wands into the box. No exceptions. You'll get them back later.
-Shaw
The box is acting as a barrier to keep the inhabitants of the classroom in, so be careful as you step over into the classroom. Watch that you don't stop on a cat. The room is full of CATS, most of them feral, hissing, and meowing, but a few might seem familiar to you (HAVE you seen your kitty lately?).
Shaw is rubbing his bald head at the front of the room.

Wait. Stun Maleficent? HELL NO! She may be a kitty.. but she was a clever kitty. Reacihng up, Thea caught her wand and as she did so Maleficent turned to stare at her. Thea swallowed. Scary Maleficent.. 'Don't worry.. I'm not going to stun you!' That was very true. She was sitting on her desk quietly, jerking her tail backwards and forwards. 'Shaw, I'm not stunning my cat, she's fine!' Thea piped up. She had also heard Shaw say to some students that they could keep their cats.. so she was keeing Maleficent. Grin.

"Nawww. You're how old? Should know how to fix your own robes. Do I look like your Momma?"
Shaw clapped his hands together at the front of the room and tried to whistle for their attention. "HEY. Hey, now. Settle down, sit down, be still. Shaw 's talking now. Seems most of you are back now, some looking better than others. We'll move on to the next part: Prepping your cat for transfiguration."
Shaw pulled a caged cat from behind his desk, a particularly large one he'd found roaming about. "Stupefy," the big cat keeled over and Shaw laughed out loud. He laughed and laughed. "I chose to stupefy mine, see? You'll need to calm yours in whatever way you choose before we can perform transfiguration. Transfiguring moving objects is harder than stationary ones so at yours ages you'll need to make them there cats be still. Don't care how you do it, just don't kill them there boogers."
He had one more laugh at the stunned cat before raising his wand again to distribute everyone's wands back to them. The box rose in the air and gently rained down wands to their proper owners.
Simon wanted to say, no my mums not as ugly as you but he decided against it because he couldn't afford to lose more points, he also knew he could mend his robes but since it was the Professor's fault they were ripped why shouldn't the Professor fix them in the end he just smiled and said. "No Professor you don't look like my mother."
Simon then listened and was in shock with what the Professor said next, he wanted to say that the whole thing was just cruel to the cat but he was still working back all the points he lost so he had to be on his best behaver, hopefully the cat would forgive him.
Simon took out his wand and pointed it and the cat before saying. "Petrificus Totalus!!" Simon was glad when the cat fell over as stiff as a board hopefully he wouldn't have to put anymore spells on the poor cat.

Hearing a thud on the desk next to her, both Thea and Maleficent turned to look. Thea's eyes became as wide as saucers. Oh my lord.. she didn't know how long she could stay in here..
Maleficent also did not seem impressed. Standing up, she hissed at the older looking boy as she clambered onto Thea's knee instead of the desk. Thea shrugged. 'Sorry.. she's rude.'

Shaw hadn't this much trouble when he carved his name into the board. Maybe he needed to get the chainsaw back out.
"This is Transfiguration class, aye?"
Shaw clapped his hands together at the front of the room and tried to whistle for their attention. "HEY. Hey, now. Settle down, sit down, be still. Shaw 's talking now. Seems most of you are back now, some looking better than others. We'll move on to the next part: Prepping your cat for transfiguration."

Janice's wand hit her on the head.
"Profe--SHAW!!" She still has trouble of calling the professor Shaw.
Luckily, Janice still had some of the cat nibbles that she took in the corridors. She took them out and laid it in front of her cat. The cat became still, but as soon as the cat finishes it, it started to grawl for some more.
"Petrificus Totalus!!!!!"
It left Janice with no choice but to cast a Body-Bind Curse on it.
Gwen got really scared when listening him talk. What? Are you crazy? Of course you are..., the young Ravenclaw thought. Ah, well, I have no choice but to do what he is saying. Hmph, at least I could use a less painful charm on my cat. Let's see- I have 2 options-using Petrificus Totalus or Impedimenta.
After a few minutes, Gwen decided to try using Impedimenta. Not that it was much better for the animal, it was just a spell that no one had mentioned so far in this class.
However, to make sure it was ok to use it, she asked: 'Um...Pr...Shaw? Can I use Impedimenta for my cat?'

Sarah was horrified. So, you call this a class? she was flabbergasted at the numerous cats in the room. She didn't fancy animals, that too cats in particular. She detested cats. And there sat one in front of her.
She looked at the Professor as her wand landed on her table. She picked it up and without a second thought casted the spell, "Petrificus Totalus!", loudly and confident on the purring cat. The cat stood still. She smiled at the little devil and raised her hand.

Now what kind of people laugh when there is nothing funny? MENTAL people. Clearly, Shaw was one of them. And now he expected them to petrify the poor, frightened animals? True, the cats weren't particularly friendly with the students, but still, what they were supposed to do was WRONG.
'Shaw? Will it do if I make the cat fall asleep? Technically, it would be calm.' the Gryffindor asked, hoping desperately to hear 'Yes' as an answer.
Ummm excuse me? He wanted them to put a spell on a poor little kitty? Sorry, but Ariella refused to harm any cat in any way. She watched, horrified, as the classroom petrified their own cats. No way was she doing anything like that. What was wrong with them?!
She scratched her cat behind the ears and on the chin, hoping it would calm down. When she heard purring, she coaxed the cat to lie down. Thankfully, it found a comfortable position on its back. It closed its eyes and fell asleep. That was as far as she would go. No spells.
"Make the cat lick it. It'll coagulate faster, like vampire spit."
Shaw clapped his hands together at the front of the room and tried to whistle for their attention. "HEY. Hey, now. Settle down, sit down, be still. Shaw 's talking now. Seems most of you are back now, some looking better than others. We'll move on to the next part: Prepping your cat for transfiguration."
Shaw pulled a caged cat from behind his desk, a particularly large one he'd found roaming about. "Stupefy," the big cat keeled over and Shaw laughed out loud. He laughed and laughed.

Fallon just eyed the man. Why would the feral cat who had bit her licking her finger make it better? That was just letting more of the germs it might have into the wound. Whatever. She'd just have to deal with it later. She just started to pet Artemis so that she would calm down.
She looked back up at Shaw once he got her attention. Fallon watched horrified as he stunned his cat...and just laughed about it. The man was insane! And cruel! ...and then he wanted them to stun there's?! No way was that going to happen. Then Fallon realized he said just to make them calm.
Fallon smiled as her wand was returned to her. She looked at Artemis, who was now purring happily on the desk. She couldn't believe that the cat just needed a little love and attention to calm down. She looked at her wand and her cat again before pointing it at the furry creature. "Petrificus Totalus." She felt it was safer for the cat.

Rachel watched horrified as Shaw stunned his cat and laughed, she knew that it was safe, but still, the poor innocent cat! Rachel felt calmer as she got back her wand.
Although she still disliked her cat, she still didn't want the cat to be stunned, it looked so peaceful asleep, so she bent down and stroked it, it didn't scratch her this time, as it was asleep, but it woke up and bit her. owch! she said to herself.
She smiled at the cat, and pointed her wand at it, "Petrificus Totalus." she said, the cat stopped moving and stayed perfectly still! "Sorry," she told it.

Kimalia raised an eyebrow whilst looking back from Shaw to her kitten. Stupefy it? That's just shocking it though.. She caught her wand and decided to gently rock the kitten. "Windgardium Leviosa." She slowly levitated the kitten who was starting to move around scared. "Shhh, it's okay." She slowly lowered it and began moving the cat around left and right slowly almost as if rocking it to sleep. After a while she lowered gently back to the ground, it had relaxed completely was lying on it's back content.

"My thoughts exactly," mumbled Sierra, giving the cat she'd caught a look out of the corner of her eye. Apparently, Shaw wasn't too big of a fan of the Puffers either. She gave him a slight smile before turning her attention to the cat.

Sierra smirked in amusement at the stupefied cat. It hadn't bothered her, and so she rolled her eyes at the ones protesting it. Leave it to the Gryffindors to try and be the heroes... Without another thought, she raised her wand to the Hufflepuff cat. "Immobulus!" she said, freezing it in place.
It had been trying to escape just as she'd done this, and so the cat ended up being frozen with its arms and legs spread wide in a running position, and it's face like so: . Again, Sierra smirked in amusement.
"Make the cat lick it. It'll coagulate faster, like vampire spit."
"Surely vampire spit is an anti-coagulant? Like a mosquito's," Spike commented. "Else the blood clots before it can be drunk. Which would be useless." He shrugged. This was a transfiguration lesson afterall.

He carefully put the cat on his desk, and looked at more closely. It was some sort of patchy tabby thing, and to be fair it looked a bit worse for wear after all that catnip. Probably a good thing, if Spike was meant to be transfiguring it. Who knew what might happen.
And first they had to ensure it was still. Wasn't it still enough? He didn't want to risk blowing it up just yet. Catching his wand, he eyed it. Maybe he should stupefy it or something. Just in case? If it moved during transfiguring it, the poor cat might end up worse off. IF he suceeded in doing something of course. Which he probably wouldn't.

"Maybe go over there to the Quarantine section." Yeah, get that one away from the rest. Shaw pointed to the other students that were watery-eyed and snotty.

Left brained, insane... what was the difference. Iris just looked at the man. She wanted her wand back! She felt NAKED without it!
... Quarantine section? QUARANTINE SECTION?! She wasn't bloody DISEASED! Ignoring the man's words, Iris turned away from him. Huffing, the head girl stomped back to her seat at the back of the class and put the cat on the table. She scratched behind his ear in an attempt to convince him that she was friendly. It seemed to work, because he sat up straight and started nuzzling her hand for more.
She looked up as he started to talk to the class, glaring with shock and fury as he stupefi'd a cat and then STARTED LAUGHING. Like, Manic laughter. He was insane. She didn't want to stupefi the cat... it was mean. getting stunned hurt, and that was as a human. Or maybe Iris just had a really low pain tolerance... but either way. The cat might, too. Her cat was now walking round her table, purring loudly. As the wands were dispensed back to their owners, Iris reached up and grabbed hers. At the same time, the cat had noticed the quill in her ponytail and was trying to climb up Iris's shoulder to get it. "Oooh no, you don't." She muttered, grabbing the cat around the middle.
Iris was GOOD at Transfiguration! She didn't NEED to have a motionless cat to transfigure him; she'd managed to successfully transfigure a live, MOVING chicken in her OWL and that was a year and a half ago. She could do this without acting like a manic idiot, without acting like Shaw. Scratching behind the cat's ears, she looked at it apologetically. This was mean. Holding her wand up to the cat, Iris shot a nasty glare out of the corner of her eye over to Shaw. "Stupefi."
The Head Girl frowned pathetically as the cat froze up. He'd already been curled up, so at least he didn't have to fall over as the spell hit him...

Miss Lovegoods DID NOT like the idea of Shaw stunning the pot cat OR his LAUGHING at it. Not amusing at all, and he got LOOKS from her for that from her seat near him. Without looking up, she caught her wand neatly in the air and twirled in between her fingers as her eyes traveled to the feral on her desk.
He was already looking for a way to escape, and she knew she'd need to do something soon.... but she wasn't stunning him cause that was cruel. Instead she silently cast immobulus on the feral before he moved from the crouch position he was in.

"Merlin!" Brielle whispered to herself, her eyes growing larger at the sight of the poor cat Shaw had stunned. She wasn't so fond of cats, but the way the animal looked... she couldn't help but feel sorry for it.
So they were transfiguring cats today. Wait. Cats? "Oh no..." she exclaimed. She had opinions about transfiguring animals. Wasn't it cruel really? "Uh, Pr--Shaw, the cats won't get hurt in any way, will they?" she asked, looking at the Professor. And about calming her cat, she knew there was no need for it. She had been sitting for a long time now, and the cat was still fast asleep.

Okay so they were transfiguring their captured cats into something....after stunning them of course. Simon almost commented that they'd need their wands just in case the pseudo professor forgot that little fact. But the crazy man did indeed happen to remember it as the box elevated up into the air and dropped each of their wands out so they could take it back. Seeing as he was still holding the cat in place on the table, as gently yet firmly as he could with both hands, he looked to his cousin to do the honors.
Most of the students seemed to have returned to the classroom, although he could still people outside. Regardless, class was moving on, so Eino ceased to pet his cat and jotted down a few notes. He listened attentively to Shaw's instructions and watched as he stupefied his own cat. After receiving his wand, he took a good look at his cat, who didn't seem to have a single clue of what was going on.
"Okay..." He said in preparation, as he shook off his nerves. He picked up the cat and placed his on top of the table, trying to make the cat sit down, but it wasn't working. He needed to get the cat still just so he wouldn't end up missing it and hitting something or someone other than the cat. Eino took a single Bertie Bott honey flavored bean and placed it on the table. As the cat was sniffing it, Eino pointed his wand at its paws and said the incantation. "Lentesco!" Pale blue light shot from Eino's wand and successfully hit the target. The cat reached for its honey bean, ate it, and when it tried to move it couldn't. Its paws had been glued to the table.
"That right there is smart, boy. You can be on Team Shaw." The males were SO much better at this stuff, Shaw noted again. "Shaw'll give you points or whatever them there things are you lot work for."

Nika was not going to use cruel magic on her cat. Even if the cat was about to jump out of her arms, she wouldn't do it. No. That was cruelty. Shaw should go to jail for that! "Isn't that considered animal cruelty Shaw?" She asked looking at the poor little cat.
Nika just pet hers and tried rubbing it's stomach. Even if it scratched her some more there can't be too much more harm done right? Nika already looked like she wrestled a bear. Not much worse could happen.
"Naaaaawww. Cat's fine. Just a little stunned." Shaw prodded the sleepy cat through it's cage. "Don't be cruel to yours neither."

this put a smile on her face. Maybe she can ask to keep it-if the cat doesn't go about scratching her again-her hand still had that fresh scratch mark the cat made. She opted to just cover it with her handkerchief and tend to it later when class is over. It's just a scratch, right? Nothing big. "C-can i name it?" she asked, putting a sweet smile on her face.
"Good... good. We want calm cats. Name it whatever you want."

"Naaaww. Cats are fine. Don't worry. If one does get caught, I hear ya got yourself an animal expert on the grounds."
Most of the class were progressing steadily, so Shaw proceeded. "Last class we touched on the topic of Fera Verto. If you remember, that was Latin, them words. What were they Latin for?"
"Rest of you restrain your cats. Catch up now."
Meanwhile, Shaw slid his cat out of its cage, cast, and turned his cat into a large, stylish cowboy hat. He put it straight on his bald head with a toothy grin to his class.
Holding the cat gently, no matter how much ungentle she looked, Louisa put her on the table before her eyeing the poor creature with watery eyes. Louisa herself was accused of hurting her own cat this summer and was grounded for its sake and now she was asked to hurt this one, stunning or not it was hurting, she might as well stun the Professor for a change. Hmph.
"Sorry." She mumbled moving her achieved wand skillfully and muttering the stupefy spell. The cat had been trying to jump off the table was stunned in an awkward position where her fore legs stretched down and her back ones pressed against the table. The cat's green gleaming eyes were deadly looking at the floor and Louisa just let out an exaggerated sigh.
THERE! Happy?
Moving on, "Fera Verto means something about monsters." She raised her hand in a bored way and refrained from spitting the words out. Not her fault the cat thing touched a hot nerve in her.

Eino fed another Bertie Bott's every flavor bean to his cat as he listened to Shaw. He was exceedingly happy to have been praised by The Man, and even happier to be put on Team Shaw. He didn't know what it meant, but it sounded exclusive and cool. He was also pleased to hear he would be awarded points, but if he had a chance to choose something else he would definitely ask for Shaw's cat cowboy hat. Points would suffice for now, but a similar hat would have to be obtained later. Maybe he would shave his head, too.
"Fera translates into wild or savage and Verto translates into change or alter!" Eino said with his hand raised. Was that what Shaw had just done? Interestingly, the spell didn't specify what the target would become so Eino supposed it was up to the caster, in which case he wanted a hat, too.
Wait what? Legend had to stun the cat? He signed and leaned back in the chair. Nope. He would not. He already CAUGHT the cat. Neptune could stun it. It was too much work for him, AND he didn't even see wha Shaw was on about. Crazy dude.
Neptune had scooted her desk over so she could sit RIGHT beside Legend. They were sharing a cat, see. Giggle. She found Legend more interesting than Shaw, so she watched him and the lounging.
"Are you afraid to stun the kitty, Mr. Chosen?" Well? Was he? Funny that, a scared Gryffindor.
She didn't mind doing it. Neptune tapped the kitty with her wand and it immobilized, still as a statue.
...as for Shaw's question? Other people were answering.
