Same disclose thingy as the last one. On with the story!

'Battle of the Bands'
Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Weird Sister's cannot perform
At the Christmas ball. Instead we will be having students from
Around the school put together their own bands and perform for the student body. The best band will be proclaimed winner and receive 500 house points for each member of the band.
Good Luck!
Harry Potter and Albus Dumbledore
'This is going to get interesting,' Harry thought to himself as he sat back and watched everyone gather around the notice board.
Harry heard calls of "Harry! This is wicked!" and "You rule!" everywhere he went now, but one person was yelling at him in an angry manner instead of a happy one.
"HARRY JAMES POTTER! What where you thinking!?" Hermione yelled at him and poked his chest.
"We needed someone to cover for the Weird Sisters and Albus thinks it is a good idea. It was him who suggested the house points bit," Harry said, flashing a lop-sided grin at the girl in front of him. No one could argue with that grin, or so he thought.
"Don't even try that look on me, mister! I am not one of your fan-girls!" Harry's smile faded as quickly as it came, "But it was a good idea." It was back again.
"I would kiss you if I wasn't afraid you would slap into the next century!"
"Good choice there, Potter," Hermione replied, but smirked a devilish grin, one worth of the gossips of the school.
"Well, I have to get my band together now. See ya 'Mione." Harry waved backwards as he walked out of the Head's common room to find Ron.

Ron, Seamus, Neville and Harry were walking toward the Room of Requirement discussing what song they were going to play when they ran into Draco, Crabbe, Goyle and Blaise Zabini.
"Hey Drake, you entering the competition?" Harry called out to the Slytherins.
"'Course we are, what about you lot?" Draco replied walking over and shaking Harry's outstretched hand.
"Damn straight. We are heading to practice now. Catch ya later!" Harry called as he and the rest of the group walked off while Draco and crew headed toward the dungeons.
'A lot has changed since our first year here,' Harry thought, remembering the times were Draco and Harry were enemies during the first several years of Hogwarts. They had been friends since about midway through 6th year when Draco and Ginny started dating.

Hermione, Parvarti, Padma, Ginny and Lavender were in a spare class room practicing for the Christmas ball.
Parvarti on bass, Hermione and Lavender on guitar with Hermione as backup singer, Padma on the drums and Ginny as lead singer.
Hermione and Lavender played the last chord to their song and sat against one of the desks.
"Great! Now all we need is a name and outfits," Hermione said, knowing she wouldn't be needed for either of the tasks.
"Parvarti and I can cover outfits!" Ginny piped in, excited at the chance to form a band.
"Padma and I could come up with a name," Lavender threw in.
"Great, let's say we meet back here day after tomorrow, 'k?" Hermione said, not waiting for an answer and rushed out of the room.
"What's she in a hurry for?" Lavender asked. Everyone just shrugged but Ginny blurted out. "She's probably going to meet Harry," Ginny quickly slapped a hand over her mouth and inwardly cursed at herself.
"You mean..?" Padma started. Ginny nodded slowly and all the other girls started their super fast talking that no man will ever be able to comprehend.

End of Chapter 1. Still a tad short but meh, I couldn't think of much to write.
