A/N let me just point out the potion is not based on any, i repeat any "muggle" drug. Colin Creevey is in Harry's year. Also the butterfly thing is in tribute to Alan Rickman playing the caterpillar in Alice in Wonderland =]

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Harry Potter if I did I would not be eating Tesco Value cookies =]

Please Read and Review!


Harry's potion was perfect. This was not a normal occurrence however and Karma, as the bitch that she is, wouldn't allow that. Draco, being his normal nasty self, threw a potion ingrediant at Harry intending to ruin his potion. With a sudden splash it dropped in Harry's now-not-so-perfect potion. Oddly the colour never changed although it did fizz a bit. When Harry took it up to Snape's desk the potion master swirled it a bit and then tasted it ( A/N it was a potion for fresh breath and free, who wouldn't take advantage of that!). A few seconds later Snape's pupils dilated. Crap thought Harry what did Ferret boy throw at me!. After five minutes Snape spoke sounding like one of those stereotypical hippies he'd seen in a movie once.

"Oh my God! My fingers are like legs for my hands!" he said whilst thoroughly examining his hands in awe.

"Er, Sir are you ok?" asked Harry

"Of course I'm ok dude" said Snape staring into space.

Deciding that with Snape's happy and carefree attitude Harry thought well it would be nice to forget about psychopathic Dark Lords and he proceeded to take a generous swig from the phial. At once his pupils dilated and his heart beat rapidly. Harry felt wonderful. Actually he felt more than wonderful. Harry felt that he could do anything. At this notion he thought I want to fly and proceeded to run around the classroom yelling "eagle!". (A/N I love Scrubs)

"Hey I want to try" said Snape who proceeded to chase Harry yelling "Severus catch eagle, Severus catch eagle" in a child-like voice.

The class watched this - with horror being the dominant emotion on their faces - they slowly backed out of the classroom.

"Let go of me" yelled Harry to Snape, who had caught his 'eagle'. When Snape refused Harry tried to punch him but only succeeded in spinning around tossing himself, and the potions master, onto the floor. Looking at each their dishevelled forms they both burst out laughing and tried to untangle themselves.

"God you are so bad at hitting people" teased Snape

"Well your, your, wow when did you turn into a unicorn!" exclaimed Harry

"I'm not a unicorn I'm a butterfly!" declared Snape indignantly.

"Well I'm the better butterfly!" declared Harry - his competitive streak showing - and they began running round the dank potions classroom flapping their arms frantically.


Outside the classroom

"Professor Dumbledore, Harry and Professor Snape are acting oddly after drinking a potion, can you help?" asked Hermione, with Ron behind her as they followed the Headmaster to the classroom.

As the trio entered the potions classroom they were greeted by the strangest sight. Harry and Snape were running around the classroom flapping their arms yelling "I'M the better butterfly!". Dumbledore smiled and said "It should wear off soon and between me and you I never saw that camera on Mr Creevey's desk" before winking and exiting the classroom and leaving them to it.

When the potion wore off everyone was laughing at photos of Harry pretending to be a butterfly (the first person who teased Snape for it had not seen since and people generally took this as a warning not to go near him), Harry wasn't seen in public for days as he was hiding in his dormitory and Snape was trying to figure out how to brew the potion again.
