During a confrontation in the courtyard at Hogwarts, Draco Malfoy gets into an argument with Harry Potter that quickly escalates in front of other students. The situation takes an unexpected turn when Professor Alastor Moody intervenes and magically transforms Draco into a small white ferret. The incident happens publicly, with students—including Draco’s friends Pansy Parkinson, Blaise Zabini, Theodore Nott, Mattheo Riddle, and Y/N—witnessing everything. Moody briefly controls the transformed Draco before reversing the spell. Once restored, Draco is left humiliated and furious, reacting with anger as the moment becomes widely witnessed and quickly spreads through the school as an embarrassing event for him.
