A/N: two full songs in the chapter, just to get Snapes knicker in a knot. hehehehe

Last time:

"Severus, Hermione, Draco and myself, will help you pack your belongings, so we can hurry back to Hogwarts. I will take you boys to Diagon Alley to purchase your supplies."

The group split up and packed their belongings, Dumbledore made special care to pack the band equipment, as he had plans for the group during the school year.

Now:

The seven student's and both professors apperated back to Hogwarts. They were all put in the Gryffindor house, until they were sorted on the first day of school. Professor Dumbledore held true to his word and after everyone had got settled in they floo'd to Diagon Alley to get the supplies needed for the year.

Draco and Hermione walked hand and hand through the streets as if it were a normal thing – the boy's on the other hand were having small heart attacks at the sights around them. Hermione had told them about some of the places but they just weren't prepared for what they were seeing – they enjoyed it none the less.

The first stop was Ollivander's wands. When the group walked in, Mr. Ollivander greeted them, took measurements, and went to the back to retrieve a handful of boxes. One by one, the boys would try a wand, usually after two or three attempts, the wand chose the wizard and the next would step up for the process. After around 45 minutes, all had wands and they set out to finish their shopping.

The next was the cauldron shop. Hermione made it easy and pulled five identical cauldrons for the boys.

Next was Flourish & Blotts, The school books were easily found, but Hermione took off as soon as they entered and hadn't been seen in fifteen minutes. Draco went on the search and found her – arms full of books, making her way down to pay.

The next was Eeylops' owl emporium, Hermione picked a Brown spotted owl for her and the boys to share while Draco picked a large black owl for himself.

They went to get robes, then quills and parchment. By the end of the day – they were exhausted.

Back in the Gryffindor common room, all seven students were lying on the couch, floor or chairs – talking about the training to take place and the sorting on the first day. The boys were eager to start learning, they only had three weeks to learn as much as humanly possible, and they knew they were in for it.

Suddenly a knock interrupted their conversation. Dumbledore walked into the common room, smile on his face.

"I managed to bring your equipment along – I have found a room that you can practice in whenever you have free time. Follow me and I will show you where it is."

The mood was suddenly lightened, they had their equipment and could still practice. They eagerly followed the headmaster to a room near the dungeons.

"I have charmed the room to where nobody can come in unless invited – except teachers of course." the equipment had already been set up and the group felt the need to release some tension, which was easily done through playing. A table had been set up in the back for any visitors.

"Do you mind if we play a bit sir?" Hermione asked with a smile.

"By all means Miss. Granger, go right ahead." she smiled and started towards her guitar.

"Sir, I just realized that most muggle songs have words not allowed in school, thats going to make practice rather difficult." He held up his hand, "I will allow the words in song only, Merlin knows I've heard them already during some of your shows."

She nodded and continued towards the guitar that was calling her name. Brian, still excited from the days events wanted to play something fast, to hopefully kill some of the adrenalin coursing through their veins. He smiled an evil grin "Animals by Nickleback" the group grinned , they had played this song a lot and didn't need the sheet music, this was their tension release song.

The group started tuning the instruments, while Draco and Dumbledore took seats at the table in the back. Professor Snape had been going to his rooms, when he heard the unfamiliar noises coming from the room he knew to be unused. He quirked an eye brow and walked towards the door. The first thing he noticed was Draco and Albus talking at the table, then his eyes shot up the the students that were still tuning their instruments.

"Severus" called Albus, "Come and join us, I don't believe you've ever heard them play"

Severus rolled his eyes, just what he wanted to do, watch a bunch of kids sing Sunday school songs. He took the seat next to Draco and crossed his arms over his chest waiting for the squalling to begin.

Brain stepped up to the microphone, Hermione and john stood on either side with their guitars, Eric was in the back at the drums, while Blake stood behind Hermione with the bass.

Hermione and John started with the guitars immediately , followed closely by Eric. Snape's mouth dropped instantly at the sight of Hermione, prim and proper, letting loose and strumming hard and fast on the guitar that really did look to big for her. Brian grabbed the microphone and let it go

I, I'm driving black on black

Just got my license back

I got this feeling in my veins this train is coming off the track

I'll ask polite if the devil needs a ride

Because the angel on my right ain't hanging out with me tonight

I'm driving past your house while you were sneaking out

I got the car door opened up so you can jump in on the run

Your mom don't know that you were missing

She'd be pissed if she could see the parts of you that I've been kissing

Screamin'

No, we're never gonna quit

Ain't nothing wrong with it

Just acting like we're animals

No, no matter where we go

'Cause everybody knows

We're just a couple of animals

So come on baby, get in

Get in, just get in

Check out the trouble we're in

You're beside me on the seat

Got your hand between my knees

And you control how fast we go by just how hard you wanna squeeze

It's hard to steer when you're breathing in my ear

But I got both hands on the wheel while you got both hands on my gears

By now, no doubt that we were heading south

I guess nobody ever taught her not to speak with a full mouth

'Cause this was it, like flicking on a switch

It felt so good I almost drove into the ditch

I'm screamin'

No, we're never gonna quit

Ain't nothing wrong with it

Just acting like we're animals

No, no matter where we go

'Cause everybody knows

We're just a couple of animals

So come on baby, get in

Get in, just get in

Look at the trouble we're in

We were parked out by the tracks

We're sitting in the back

And we just started getting busy

When she whispered "what was that?"

The wind, I think 'cause no one else knows where we are

And that was when she started screamin'

"That's my dad outside the car!"

Oh please, the keys, they're not in the ignition

Must have wound up on the floor while

we were switching our positions

I guess they knew that she was missing

As I tried to tell her dad it was her mouth that I was kissing

Screamin'

No, we're never gonna quit

Ain't nothing wrong with it

Just acting like we're animals

No, no matter where we go

'Cause everybody knows

We're just a couple animals

So come on baby, get in

We're just a couple of animals

Get in, just get in

Ain't nothing wrong with it

Check out the trouble we're in

Get in, just get in

Snape couldn't close his mouth, the things the song implied sent him in a state of shock, "How in the hell does she know what any of that means." He thought to himself.

Hermione noticed the look on Snape's face and felt a little bit slytherin at her next thoughts, yes, 6 years of torment from the professor earned him for the next shock. She grinned as she walked to each player and whispered in their ear.

Hermione stood in front of the microphone and smirked.

The band started to play including Hermione who was playing her guitar.

I hate the world today
You're so good to me
I know but I can't change
Tried to tell you
But you look at me like maybe
I'm an angel underneath
Innocent and sweet
Yesterday I cried
Must have been relieved to see
The softer side
I can understand how you'd be so confused
I don't envy you
I'm a little bit of everything
All rolled into one

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way ( Snape rubs his eyes to make sure its her.)

So take me as I am
This may mean
You'll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that
When I start to make you nervous
And I'm going to extremes
Tomorrow I will change
And today won't mean a thing

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way

(Snape pinches himself to make sure he's not dreaming, Draco's mouth is now dropped.)

Just when you think, you got me figured out
The season's already changing
I think it's cool, you do what you do
And don't try to save me

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way

I'm a bitch, I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
When you hurt, when you suffer (two thumps are heard through out the room)
I'm your angel undercover
I've been numb, I'm revived
Can't say I'm not alive
You know I wouldn't want it any other way

Snape and Draco both passed out sometime during the last verse, leaving Hermione in tears laughing, Dumbledore chuckling and the boys cheering. She would probably regret this later, but for now, it was great.
