"Sorry Professor Snape, but theres been an announcement. Due to the lack of Festivals this year, there will be a talent quest in a week, in which the winner will be the person who does something completely unlike him/herself. We have invited everybody to enter, teachers included, except our three judges, Prof. Dumbledore, Fleur Declour and A Mystery Judge, who shall be cloaked until the end of the contest.
She left the room, and everyone was humming to each other (A/N That means they were all talking softly among themselves) Snape suddenly yelled
"QUIET!! GET BACK TO WORK!!!"
The week seemed to slip past, until it was the night of the Talent Show. Everone wanted to see who would be out of character most. The first three acts were by Slytherins, and not original at all, and each got 6 and a 1/2 from the judges combined. Then was the HufflePuff's, which were equally bad, then RavenClaws, which sucked as well. In fact, for most of the previously mentioned acts, Fleur Declaur yelled out
"Merde!" but as no-one understood French, that was okay. Then, came the Gryffindor acts, which everyone was looking forward too, as the Gryffindors would be brave enough to get out of character. First up was.....
Neville Longbottom(What a name!) He came up dressed in a chicken suit, but as He was a chicken normally, that got low scores from the judges. Harry looked over at the Mystery Judge, who was completely concealed by a cloak. As he held up the score, Harry noticed his hand wasn't human. He shivered. He was on next.
He got up on the stage, and............. Sang!!! He got the best score yet!!! Next was Hermione. She came up and announced-
"I decided it was most unlike me to break a school rule! So, I stole the Time Turner, and have decided to break the rules by using it!" There were gasps all around the hall. She turned it over a heck of a lot of times, and 5 minutes later came back with......................... Lily and James Potter making out!!!!!!! She looked at them, and took them back.
The last contestant was..................................... PROFESSOR MCGONNAGAL!!!!!!! She got up, and started break dancing in ront of everyone. The whole school cracked up, as she was totally out of character. The Judges gave her 30/30, she had won!
Once the cheering had died down, Prof. Dumbledore stood up and made an announcement
"And now, the moment selected few of you have been waiting for... The unveiling of our mystery judge. It was....................
BUCKBEAK
He stood up and said"I say old Bean!"
