The potion tasted foul. It almost burnt up her throat. She coughed and tried to throw up.

    "DON'T THROW UP!" James, Remus and Sirius admonished her simultaneously, which made her swallow immediately. Then Ginny glared at them.

    "What was that for?" She asked.

    "To make you swallow girl." Said Sirius, grinning. James on the other hand didn't laugh. "Now take up your wand." He said and Ginny obliged.

    "Point at yourself. The incantation is 'Modificare sagoma'. Go on, try it. But it is non verbal.

    "Ginny pointed the wand at herself and with immense concentration, she casted in her mind, "Modificare sagoma".

    A moment's pause. Ginny felt weightless. She was shrinking. Her vision unfocused. But within few seconds, her sight became normal. But this time, Sirius, Remus and James were much more taller than her than normal.

    "What is it?" She tried to say, but instead it sounded like a low growl. What had she become? She looked down at herself. She had paws. Silvery grey paws. Soft silvery ash coloured fur. She had become something close to a cat, or a tiger, but she was bigger than a cat and smaller than a tiger. She was about the size of Sirius in his dog form as she worked out. But wasn't she supposed to be a stallion according to her patronus? If she wasn't a stallion, what was she?

    James bend down upto her and patted her on the back. "Congratulations!" He exclaimed. "You are a panther!" Sirius and Remus grinned. Peter, who had finally woken up, just goggled at her her.

    She didn't know how to feel. She was a panther. That was kind of.... cool.

    "Now, we need to talk. So kindly cast the incantation again. It should work."

    Ginny concentrated hard and said 'modificare sagoma' in her head. Again, after a few seconds of dizziness, Ginny was back to her normal height. Instantly, James hugged her, Sirius picked her up and swirled her around, Remus gave her one of his rare dazzling smiles.

    "You did it!" Three of them yelled. Ginny also felt a large smile creeping up her lips.

    "Yes!" She jumped up and down in joy. "I did it!"

    "Now, for a Marauder name." Sirius announced dramatically. "We four Marauders will set a name for you. Fellow Marauders, suggestions please!"

    "Well, she is kinda Padfoot too." Peter said.

    "You have no creativity Peter!" Said Remus, rolling his eyes.

    "Silverfeather?" Sirius suggested.

    "Where the hell did you find feathers, mate?" James questioned.

    "Fair point well made, Prongs."

    "Furcoat?" Peter suggested.

    "Absolutely not!" The other three snapped. Ginny watched them in amusement, not making a comment.

    "Ashfur?" Remus suggested. James pondered on the name.

    "Yeah. It is nice. How about Ashclaw?"

    Ginny shook her head. "Sounds like Ravenclaw. I want something more Gryffindor-ish, please."

    Remus looked thoughtful. "How about Ashpaw?"

    "How about Silverfur?" James suggested.

    "I like Silverfur!" Said Sirius enthusiastically. Remus nodded. "It is the best so far."

    "Okay..... Silverfur it is." Ginny agreed. Sirius flipped dramatically and started announcing.

    "My dear fellow Marauders, I,Padfoot, is happy to announce the arrival of our fifth and only Lady Marauder, Ginny Summers, privately known as Silverfur. Big round of applause for her!"

    The four of them applaudes for her. Ginny felt happiness beyond measure,as well as a pang of sadness. Her happiness would've been hundred times more if Harry was with her to celebrate her success.
