It had been something she had wanted to learn since she had first heard about it at school, something she eagerly studied and learnt more about - even as a young fifth year. Of course - she knew the laws, she knew she'd have to wait to actually learn it until she was older - but gathering the information wasn't considered breaking rules after all. So she learnt everything she could, ready for when she'd actually begin to put her knowledge into action. She waited - only near the end of her final year did she actually begin to use the knowledge that she had learnt - it would be a long process and wouldn't happen overnight. But she could wait, she had already been waiting since she had first learnt what an Animagus was after all.
She kept it all to herself, perhaps not the brightest idea - things could go wrong, there were many things that could go wrong. It was what made becoming an Animagi so dangerous and risky - it was why many people didn't bother trying to learn it, but Cassie was a smart and determined girl and this was something she wanted to learn for herself. Not for anyone else - but for herself.
It took time, a lot of practice and more reading and learning, long nights of practice and training and partial transformations. But she believed that it'd be worth it, and then one day the day came where her hard work paid off. She repeated and recited the incantation that she had memorized, quickly following it with the potion she had prepared before taking a deep breath in as she closed her eyes - waiting for the image to form in her mind. There was no choosing your animal form, the form that she would take wouldn't be up to her but the image slowly appeared and as it did her body slowly began to change. She had experienced some slight changes before - but not like what she was experiencing now.
As she opened her eyes and looked around, things were different - or rather, she was different. Her body had shrunk and as she looks down at her hands - they were different, now small paws - and her body was covered in fur. Eyes widened as she stumbled back, only to fall and stumble as she fell - not used to having four paws instead of two legs. She had done it!
A fluffy tail moves quickly, wagging in excitement as she moves - trying to learn how to walk on four legs instead of two, after managing for awhile she stumbles towards the mirror she had set up in the corner, finally able to see herself in her new form. She was small, a fox of some kind - what type she wasn't completely sure of but she was definately a fox of some sort. She spent the next hour learning how to get around and running around her room, shifting occasionally until it became easier - she'd have to look up later to find out what kind of fox she was, but she had done it! She had offically become an Animagus.
