The girls were impressed by the potion and the fact that they were now animagus. However, this also brought up many doubts and questions.
"Did you take the potion too, Red? What did you transform into?" asked Luna, looking at me with curiosity in her eyes. After her question, all the others also stared at me, eagerly waiting for an answer.
"Yes, Red, don't tell us you got us these potions but got nothing for yourself," Tracey commented with a mocking tone, though you could hear the fear in her voice, worried she'd feel guilty if that was true.
"I took it, but I didn't turn into an animal," I replied.
"Did you turn into a plant?" Padma asked, surprised.
"No, I used a new method to transform into a magical creature," I said, seeing their faces fill with astonishment. I was breaking their expectations one by one. "It's an experimental method with very high requirements. Not just anyone can achieve it."
"What did you transform into?" Pansy asked, excited for me. Then, remembering Elise, she added, "A unicorn?"
"That would be fantastic..." Lavender murmured, diverting her gaze to my crotch with a dreamy expression.
"That doesn't matter. I'll show you later, but you must remember not to tell anyone. It's my secret, just like you must keep yours about being animagus," I said seriously.
"But we won't be able to hide it for long," Hermione commented. "When we register at the Ministry of Magic, that information will be available to anyone."
We all stared at her in silence, but it was Pansy who voiced aloud what everyone was thinking.
"We're not going to register at the Ministry." (Pansy)
"But... all animagus have to register. It's illegal not to," Hermione insisted, clearly uncomfortable.
"Hermione, Pansy is right. We're not registering. It's absurd," I said firmly.
"Yeah, why would we have to?" Tracey added.
"Because..." Hermione hesitated, feeling the weight of all the judgmental stares as if she were naive.
"Hermione, that law exists to control animagi and prevent them from committing crimes by exploiting their ability... or rather, to locate them when they do," I explained.
"That's why! It's necessary to register," Hermione said.
"Are you planning on doing something illegal?" I asked, giving her a questioning look.
"No!" she immediately denied, embarrassed.
"Do you think any of your friends would?" I pressed.
"N-no..." she said, casting a quick glance at the others, afraid they might misinterpret her.
"Hermione, registering isn't a good thing. In a utopian world, maybe, but not here. If you register, everyone will know your secret. If a dark wizard wants to kill you and you use your animagus form to hide or flee, they'll find you and kill you. They could also frame you: imagine someone commits a crime and leaves an otter at the scene. If you can't prove your innocence, you'll be considered guilty even if you did nothing." I paused to let my words sink in before continuing. "And think about this: if you register, everyone will know you became an animagus at this age. You wouldn't be the youngest in history, but you'd be one of the most recognized. And if they find out all of you did it... don't you think they'll wonder how a group of girls pulled off such a feat? They'll come after me. The ability to become an animagus so easily is something many would covet. They'll want my head... or rather, my secrets. Some might even torture me to get them. Would you do that to me?" I asked, moving closer to her, until she was right in front of me.
"No..." she murmured, without any trace of certainty in her voice. She hadn't considered any of what I mentioned, and in fact, it was hard for her to even imagine it. She still didn't fully understand the harsh realities of the world.
"Then just help us and keep our secret. Registering isn't important, it's just a control method that ends up benefiting the wrong people. Why do you think, even though there's been a werewolf registry for so long, almost no werewolves have registered?"
"Trust us. The worst that could happen is a reprimand, a fine, or, in the worst case, a few days in Azkaban. Even then, it would be temporary, and I'd make sure to get you out as soon as possible." I hugged her, pressing her against my chest, trying to reassure her.
Hermione lowered her gaze, still uncomfortable with the idea of breaking a law, but she couldn't ignore my words or contradict the others. Deep inside, she began to accept that her friends were above a rule that, at that moment, didn't seem so relevant to her.
"Alright. The same goes for everyone. Don't register and don't tell anyone. Not even your parents. It's a lifesaver, a skill that could save you at the right moment. The fewer people know, the better." (Red)
Several of the girls, especially those with stricter morals like Hermione, seemed nervous about it.
"But well, it's time to run through the forest. Everyone come closer!" I said with a smile, lightening the tension.
The girls slowly approached as I activated my ability. I spoke a little more about the importance of keeping this secret, and they all agreed, including the place I would take them. The latter sparked even more curiosity, but I revealed nothing until enough time passed, and then...
*Pop*
We appeared in the middle of a small forest, if it could even be called that. Now we were in the fief, a completely separate area from the others. It was a circle with a one-kilometer diameter, with several trees and bushes scattered around. Small, yes, but enough for what I wanted to do.
The girls were amazed by the sudden teleportation, but I didn't let them get too caught up in it. I told them they could freely try out their animagus forms here. Sure, they were curious, but they could put that aside while exploring and discovering the secrets of the place. However, before they got too excited, I smiled mischievously and said:
"Well, the truth is, I spent a lot on you all, and I don't think your Christmas gifts can make up for it... so I'll make up the difference by playing with your animal forms." (Red)
A chill ran through all of them when they heard my words. They turned to look at me, alert.
"The game is simple: if I catch you, I can rub and bite any bellies I want." I paused, letting them almost protest before interrupting them, "You have a five-second head start. Four... three..."
I didn't wait to finish counting. All of them showed horror in their eyes as they transformed into their respective animagus forms and fled.
I smiled as I reached "one" and rushed after them, turning into a deer.
I didn't hold back with any of them, and the moment I caught them, I played with them as if they were really animals... or rather, pets. Some were dangerous, but that didn't matter. They all, deep down, felt indebted to me, so they didn't resist my caresses too much. Also, I used a bit of [Ecstasy] on my fingertips when scratching them, making any attempt at resistance disappear within a few seconds. In fact, some even actively sought it out, getting caught up in the pleasure.
The first to fall was Hermione. As my girlfriend, I didn't hold back from mercilessly petting her otter-like body. She ended up detransforming, leaving a red-faced and agitated Hermione, sprawled in my arms, staring into space. Next time, I'll take her to a lake to see how she performs in the water.
Lavender was next. She had actually been watching the whole time, watching me handle Hermione with that excited look she always has in these situations. Her animagus form was that of a Siamese cat, and she didn't even try to resist. In fact, she offered herself to me completely with meows and very suggestive feline poses. Still, her cat form made her seem less perverted than usual. Even when she lifted her bottom to show me everything or turned on her back, spreading her legs to show off her furry belly, she looked more adorable than provocative.
I petted her for a while, but I didn't spend too much time with her, because her exaggerated meows made the others tense, as if they thought I had done something unspeakable.
The next one to fall was Astoria. With her, I had to be more careful. Her form was that of a beautiful butterfly, and I needed amazing control to gently caress her, letting her enjoy my [Ecstasy] before letting her fly freely.
Next, I found Parvati, transformed into a lioness. Although her appearance was imposing, I managed to jump on her and scratch her ears until she ended up on her back. She was so embarrassed that she ran off shortly after I stopped.
Just then, Tracey arrived, trying to make a stealth attack. She transformed into a magpie and tried to prank me by attacking my hair. Of course, she failed and was punished with a forced grooming.
I saw several other girls who took on bird forms. The most notable was Penelope, transformed into an osprey, who came straight to me and didn't resist too much.
Padma turned into a falcon, and although she seemed distrustful at first, she soon gave in to curiosity and approached me as well.
Cho, on the other hand, was a real challenge. She turned into a swallow, and if I hadn't cheated, I probably wouldn't have caught her.
Moving on to the others, I encountered Pansy, in her wolf form. She held her head high with pride, as if wanting me to admire her, especially her fur, which she rubbed against me. I gave her some affection while whispering things in her ear before going after another victim.
Millicent transformed into a boar or some other type of wild pig. She wasn't very large, but enough that playing with her required some strength.
Susan, on the other hand, turned into an adorable little dog. She almost licked my hand after receiving my strokes. She was incredibly cute, and she knew it, taking advantage of it by shamelessly showing her sweetness.
Hannah was difficult to find, and with her, I had to be careful, just like with Astoria. She transformed into a bee, but I still managed to give her a dose of pleasure until she buzzed as she flew crookedly off my finger.
Then came Daphne, who took on the form of an emerald snake. She looked at me calmly, waiting for me to stroke her scales. It was an interesting experience; she was very cute.
Lastly, there were my little sisters. Luna transformed into a hare and spent most of the time running and jumping with joy. However, she took a moment to hug my leg when she saw me. Then, when I picked her up, she placed her paws on my face before trying to fall asleep in my arms.
And then I came to Ginny… who, let's just say, was the hardest to ignore and also the most upset for not going to her first.
Her animagus form was that of a horse, the largest of the group. She had a reddish coat that made her stand out, and her intimidating attitude increased when she got aggressive.
Knowing Elise as well as I did, I knew exactly how to dodge and control my horse sister when she got angry. It took me a little time to calm her down, but I managed. Still, I preferred to keep my distance since I had too much affinity with horses and... her insisting so much that I ride her was too much for my mind... it was hard not to think of things I shouldn't.
