Not What You'd Expect

Chapter 1: Talent Show

Bright lights flashed back and forth over the makeshift stage that Dumbledore had conjured in the great hall. Colin Creevy picked up the microphone. "And now, introducing…Ginny Weasley, Hermione Granger, Luna Lovegood, Dean Thomas, Seamus Finnigan and….Neville Longbottom, dancing to the muggle song 'One Two Step' by Ciara."

Everything went black. The beat started and the curtains opened. Green and blue light flashed on and Hermione was standing to one side. Ginny and Luna had their hands on their foreheads and were looking down. Hermione was wearing a black tank top with bright blue stars all over it. She had on a bright blue miniskirt. Ginny had a matching outfit in green and Luna had one in purple. Dean and Neville jumped out from each side of the stage and when their feet hit the ground, Ginny and Luna looked at them. The boys were each wearing jeans and a shirt that matched their girl's color scheme.

"Ladies and gentlemen," Neville yelled.

"Ladies, and gentlemen, gentlemen," Dean echoed. "This is a jazzy fizzle. Productshizzle."

"Ginny, Pavarti," Neville said

"The princess is here, HERMIONE!" they both said.

Just then the light shined on Hermione and she opened her mouth and began to sing.

"This beat is Automatic supersonic hypnotic funky fresh,
Work my body so melodic,
This beat flows right through my chest,
Everybody ma and pappi came to party,
Grab somebody,Work your body, work your body,
Let me see you 1,2 step."

As she said this. Seamus came out next to her and grabbed her hips. Dean grabbed Ginny's and Neville grabbed Luna's. They began to freak dance.

"Rock it, don't stop it,
Everybody get on the floor,
Wake the party up,
We about to get it on,
(Let me see ya'll)
1,2 step,
(I love it when ya'll)
1,2 step
(Everybody)
1,2 step,
We about to get it on,
This beat is"

Hermione's voice joined now by Luna and Ginny was still heard, singing the song while they grinded into the boys. The girls put their hands around the boys' heads and thrust their hips forward a few times, and then broke apart.

Hermione took over again for the next verse and her, Ginny, and Luna started dancing with each other instead of the boys. The boys were dancing each alone on the other side of the stage, watching the girls intently.

"Outrageous so contagious make you crave it,
(Jazze made it),
So retarded, top charted,
Ever since the day I started,
Strut my stuff,
And yes I flaunt it,
Goodies make the boys jump on it
(Jump on it),
No I can't control myself,
Now let me do my 1,2 step"

When the chours came around again, both parties joined again, the girls singing together and beginning to get a little sweaty.

"It don't matter to me,
We can dance slow
(Ladies and gentlemen),
Whichever way the beats drop,
Our bodies will go
(I like this ah),
So swing it over here,
Mr.DJ,
(Hey,Hey),
And we will, we will rock you up
It don't matter to me,
We can dance slow
(Dance slow yeah),
Whichever way the beats drop,
Our bodies will go,
So swing it over
here, Mr. DJ,
(Ladies and gentlemen),
And we will, we will rock you,
Lets shake"

Luna and Hermione sang, now dancing together. Ginny had somehow disappeared. They were dancing back to back, moving up and down slowly. Suddenly, Ginny seemed to rise out of the floor and she was holding a microphone. Hermione and Luna moved to the side and the boys took turns break dancing. Ginny started to rap.

"I shake it like jello,
And make the boys say hello,
Cause they know im rockin' the beat
(Rocking the beat),
I know you heard about a lot of great MC's,
But they ain't got nothing on me (nothing on me),
Because im 5 foot 2,
I wanna dance with you,
And im sophisticated fun,
I eat filet mignon,
And I'm nice and young,
Best believe im number one"

Yet again, all the performers danced with each other for the first part of the chours, but then the girls started doing flips and handsprings across the stage. When they had each done their part, they each posed with their guy, and the lights went black again. Loud cheers went up from the audience.

Ron was in the audience, practically fuming. "I cant believe Ginny would dance like that! And she NEVER told me!"

Harry laughed. "What about Hermione?"

Ron looked down and his ears turned a bright red. "I didn't know Hermione liked to dance. She was…good," he said quietly.

Colin Creevy came back out. "Here's Draco Malfoy and Blaise Zambini singing 'Im too Sexy'," he announced.

Draco and Blaise came out and started their performance.

Backstage, Hermione, Ginny, Luna, Seamus, Dean, and Neville were all relaxing. "You think we made an impression?" Ginny asked, giggling to herself. She pulled her hair back into a ponytail and took a big sip of water from her cup. Her blue eyes were sparkling.

"I would say!" Luna said. "Nevy, you were great!" Luna smiled at Neville and he blushed. She grabbed him and lead him away, grinning mischievously.

Sighing, Hermione sat down next to Ginny. "I think Harry and Ron will be really surprised. They've never seen my wild side except when I punched Malfoy in third year. They think I'm just a quiet bookworm. This is going to be interesting."

Ginny started laughing. "I think you made the biggest impression on Ron. He likes you, you know."

Hermione pushed her. "Shut up, he does not and you know it. And if he did, who says I like him? Huh?"

Ginny shrugged. "We should probably go see them." Hermione nodded and they got up to go see the boys and the rest of Hogwarts's first annual talent show.
