Summers stood in front of the class, resting against the edge of his desk. To his left lay a high stack of papers, the revision questions his Seventh Years had completed the previous lesson. Each one was marked in different coloured ink; green for a correct answer, red for an incorrect answer. There was a distinctly higher amount of green ink used. Aeon quite was pleased with himself. As the class entered the room, Aeon pushed himself off from his desk and whipped his wand through the air, levitating the completed revision sheets behind him. With a quick flick toward each student, he handed the pieces of parchment out to their respective owners, along with an entirely new sheet for them to fill out. "Fantastic job on your reviews, guys. You all did so well! Almost every single one of you. Except you, Killua. You did horribly. Don't come back if you're not going to try put a hint of effort in." Summers said, stopping at the Slytherin boy's desk. He passed over his sheet, of which there seemed to be more red ink than parchment. It was practically dripping with the scarlet liquid. He continued on, passing the other desks. "I'm not going to tolerate laziness in my class. If you want to do this subject, then do it. None of you will get anywhere in life if you cruise along and make absolutely no effort. " With the final sheet handed out, he returned to his desk and took his seat, hands clasped together.

"Now, you all have another revision sheet to complete today, and you'll receive another next lesson. Exams are close, and it's important that you revise and practice everything. As before, the table across the room is full of both inanimate and animate things for you to utilise. You may start now." He informed them, before sitting back in his chair with a copy of Transfiguration Today to read.

[justify]The fifth week rolled by, and Nikandros Matthias made his way to the classroom he needed to be in once more. It would not take long for him to make it there, since he was already out of the Great Hall, finished breakfast for the morning. That would be something he would miss, was eating within the Great Hall. The feasts were always impressive. Nikandros shook his head and he found his seat once he made it to the classroom with good timing. The lesson would begin shortly, and he could not wait to get this done and over with. He did not need to do much, which was good. He had mainly studying to do so that he could pass the classes with the grades that he wanted. He wanted to just make Exceeding Expectations, but he would love an Outstanding here or there. It would be nice to show that to his dad.

He received his review sheet, and then got another review sheet. He heard a Slytherin boy get gripped out, and to his surprise, it was not Sergei Zhefarovich. Well, that prefect was superb in Transfiguration so he didn't expect anything less. Nikandros got started on his review sheet, and this time, it took a little less time to complete than the other ones. He had to remember a lot, and he didn't have time to practice in the class. God, he was slow at these review sheets! He turned it in and went to his dorm to get some practicing in. He needed to pass. He just had to pass!

1. Explain the limits of Transfiguration. Include at least two examples. There are no shortcuts, and no skill or knowledge can be magically formed into the mind. One example is being an animagus, it must be learned.
2. What spell turns a frog into a grasshopper (and back again)? Locusta
3. How would you turn a rat into a rabbit (and back again)? Cuniculus
4. Explain 'Clashing Magic'. Attempt of using magic on a magical creature or an item.
5. What is an animagus? What is required to register with the Ministry? What punishments are there if you do not register? A person who can change into an animal at will depending on their personality. Proof of form and any special markings the form may have, such as darker hair around the head. Azkaban is the punishment for not registering.
6. What is the incantation for switching spells? There is not one.
7. What does a switching spell do? Exchanges one item or animal for another.

[justify]It was close to the review week. Some classes were reviewing now, but Damon Kyle wondered if that would continue. He shrugged his shoulders at his thought as he entered the classroom once more. Damon found his way to his seat and he rested his head upon his hands. He looked forward as he waited for the class to begin. He was more or less impressed with how fast this year was turning into. He was almost done with this semester, and he was also almost done with being a seventh year. He could live without the prefect title. In fact, he was just glad that he did not receive any other title. The NEWTs brought him nightmares enough. He could not imagine the pressure that some people were under, like Rosie and Bryce. Both of them had huge responsibilities. He would never want to be in their shoes. Either way, his thoughts were interrupted as the class began.

Once more, the class would be reviewing. Professor Summers passed out the previous review sheets and handed out a new one. Damon received his, and then heard a Slytherin being jumped on. He looked to see who it was, praying it was not Sergei or else all hell would be broke loose. No, it was another. Damon let out a relieved sigh and got started on his review. This time, it did not take as long. This was where Damon started his conjuring spells after he turned in his things. He conjured up flowers, a spell he learned last year, before making them vanish with the spell he learned in his fifth year. When class was dismissed, he felt like he reviewed enough for the day.

1. Explain the limits of Transfiguration. Include at least two examples. No shortcuts at all. Cannot conjure money, and you need to learn to be an animagus.
2. What spell turns a frog into a grasshopper (and back again)? Locusta
3. How would you turn a rat into a rabbit (and back again)? Cuniculus
4. Explain 'Clashing Magic'. Attempt of using magic on a magical creature or an item. AKA, dragon.
5. What is an animagus? What is required to register with the Ministry? What punishments are there if you do not register? A person who can change into an animal at will. Different markings on the fur or skin are required, and if you don't register, you go to Azkaban.
6. What is the incantation for switching spells? There is not one.
7. What does a switching spell do? Exchanges one item or animal for another.

[justify]Bryce Chamberlin walked into the classroom he needed to be in once more, and noticed that this was the last week before revision, unless he was already in a class that was revising. Sometimes, he had some classes that revised on the fifth week, which he thought that was useful with a quiz or something equivalent. Bryce found his seat once more and noticed that he might have been running slightly late, but by no means tardy. Bryce needed to keep that record with him until he graduated. He was good with classes, so he hoped that he would get through this sooner rather than later. The NEWTs were such a big deal. He wanted nothing more but to enjoy the time that he had off, before going out and finding a job. He did not know what he wanted to be, but he wanted to take pictures.

Looking at the professor once more, he read the lips of the professor as much as he could. It was a little difficult to see what he was saying as he walked around the room. He turned to a friend to help him out, so that he knew what they were going to be doing. He received his last quiz, and then received another one. Huh, he could do this! Another revision, perhaps something a little fresher within his mind.

4. Explain 'Clashing Magic'. Trying to use magic on a magical item or creature.
5. What is an animagus? What is required to register with the Ministry? What punishments are there if you do not register? An animagus is a being that can turn into a predetermined animal at will. They need to tell what animal and special markings. Also, if you don't register, Azkaban is the price.
6. What is the incantation for switching spells? There isn't.
7. What does a switching spell do? Exchanges one object for another.

Sarcastic - Cold - Perceptive Manipulative - Animagus

[justify]Finally, it was the fifth week of lessons, which meant that there was just one more lesson in each classroom before moving on to another set of uninteresting classes ahead. Sergei did not want to do much to begin with, but earning Slytherin many points made it worthwhile. It had taken a while, but Sergei was finally taking an interest in the house that the hat sorted him in. Sergei settled into his seat in the back of the classroom and waited for the rest of the idiots to arrive, sans his relatives and the few that he actually talked to. Then again, he never talked to anyone now. He was busy doing his own thing and it was going to stay that way since he did not want to do anything else. Sergei was not interested in many things. Just some things. Sergei sighed and he thought that he needed to just get over some things and get to work.

Once more, Sergei received his quiz, and he was given another quiz. He also looked as a student got drilled for being lazy and the Animagus had to force himself from rolling his eyes at the other Slytherin. Pathetic, truly. He shook his head and he got to work on the next quiz, which proved to be even easier than the last. He was a natural at this, plus the additional lessons he had just made it even easier. He turned it in and started to read the textbook, instead of practicing. He needed to study this much of the subject.

5. What is an animagus? What is required to register with the Ministry? What punishments are there if you do not register? An animagus is a talented witch or wizard that can turn into an animal. You'll need to inform them of what markings you have. And, if you don't register, you are taken to Azkaban.
6. What is the incantation for switching spells? Trick question, there isn't one.
7. What does a switching spell do? Exchanges one object for another.
