Chapter 5 - New skills "Right now, clear your mind and FOCUS" Said Tonks calmly. I take a deep breath in, clear my mind, and take a deep breath out. Tonks says "Good, good. Now, think of what you want your hair to look like. Nothing else, only what you want it to look like." I scrunch my face up and picture my normal hair as clearly as I can. //My hair, my hair, nothing else. Oh gosh I'm hungry - NO. My hair, my hair, nothing else.// I think. I hear a little "Pop!" and open my eyes. "Did it work? I ask nervously and Tonks hands me a mirror and says, "That's really good for your first try." I look into the mirror curiously and I'm very surprised to see that all my hair - except a few locks of it - had turned black. All the other locks were a pretty pastel-lime-green color which I thought would be pretty cool, if I hadn't meant to do this. "Oh wow! Thats actually pretty cool if you ask me! But harder than I thought. You make it look so easy!" I say to Tonks. "Well, I've known that I'm a metamorphagus since I was 2, so I've had WAAAY more practice. Lets try that again, shall we?" Tonks replies, smiling softly. //Deep breath in, clear my mind, deep breath out// I think //Now, picture my hair, on a normal day.// I hear another little 'Pop!' and I open my eyes nervously to find that now, all of my hair is the same color! I squeal with happiness as Tonks starts writing on a bit of paper. "What are you writing?" I ask curiously "Oh, just some stuff I thought you would want to know about being a metamorphagus." she answered. "Okay, done." she says and she hands the paper to me. "If you want another lesson, just tell Dumbledore. I'm sure he'll alert me." Tonks said, grinning. "I think it's best if you get to bed now Willow" she says, yawning, "Even I'm tired." //She's right// I think, yawning too. "Night." Tonks says, dissapparating. I head toward the Ravenclaw girls dorms and tuck myself into my blankets, not even bothering to change. //It's good to be back at Hogwarts again//
