Fred and George, wanting to shake things up a bit for the remainder of the year (it was now early February), finally found what they were looking for. The spell of a lifetime - a spell that, if anyone in the school felt the urge to sing (whether it was Harry singing 'Teenagers' or Cedric and Diana singing yet another sappy showtune), they had to. Sort of like Tourette's of the vocal cords.
They cast the spell in the Potions classroom after dark, when Snape was out - a bunch of things went into a cauldron, but the only things that the twins wound up remembering afterwards were the pieces of paper with musical notes on them. The parchment had slowly dissolved, leaving behind an echo in the empty dungeon.

"How dare they?!" Cho muttered through gritted teeth as she flipped through the spellbook, looking for the potions section.
This time it had truly been too much. She had expected Cedric and Diana to drop out of the musical a LONG time ago. After all those pranks (which no one had been caught for, but had been Cho) had been pulled on that brunette four-eyed singing twit, Diana would've been exactly the kind of person to drop out. And Cho had heard how Cedric talked - his mom would most likely have a heart attack halfway through the performance.
So, they both had their reasons to go. Opening night was tomorrow in the Great Hall, and yet... THEY WERE STILL THERE!
Finally, she found the spell she was looking for. It would serve as a double whammy - Diana's punishment for dating Cho's ex (who she still liked quite a bit), Cedric's punishment for trying to break away from his current reputation. Who did he think he was, Troy Bolton?
The punishment, you may ask? Here it was, in one simplified sentence:
Bring someone else into the picture.
