SYNOPSIS: Two wizard's and one witch decide to make Professor Severus Snape's christmas a very memorable one indeed.



***



'Shhh... pipe down!'

'Oh, you pipe down you old coote!'

'Who are you calling old coote?'

'You, twit.'

'I'm not a twit.'

'SHHHHH!

Three people were wondering through the dungeons. Three very powerful people. Three very magical people. One witch and two wizards. There was trouble lurking in the dungeons a week before Christmas. Lots of trouble. And lots of mischief.

The three magical people walked silently, beneath an invisibility coat. Their aim: To make a mockery of a professor. A very silent, brooding and unhappy professor. They weren't aiming to humiliate, just to cheer him up. He was always a sad and cranky sort and that wasn't how they wanted to celebrate christmas. Not this year anyway.

'Ergh... what was that?' squealed the witch.

'My foot, you twit! Watch where you are going!' replied one of the wizards.

'You two are too noisy. He'll here us.' said the other wizard.

'Hrmph', was the only reply from the witch.

They continued walking down the corridor, rounding it at the end. All of a sudden a figure stepped out in front of them causing them to walk into it. A dark, black figure.

'Well, well, well. What do we have here? Students wandering the halls?' The voice was dark and sneering.

The three beneath the cloak stiffened. They watched in horror as a hand loomed out trying to swipe at the cloak. They couldn't back away because there was a wall behind them; they couldn't Aparate because you just couldn't do that in Hogwarts; and they couldn't just reveal themselves. They just hoped that the hand wouldn't touch them. Unfortunately for them, the hand felt the soft material and grabbed at the cloak.

Severus Snape stared in shock at what was revealed under the cloak. Two wizard's and one witch looking very, very guilty.



End Part 1.



NOTE:

I know, I know. Rather short yes, yes. But it's just an introduction type thing. A bit of a cliffhanger going on. Ooooh... who's under the cloak? Is it Potter, Weasley and Granger? Or Malfoy, Parkinson and Crabbe? Who is underneath the cloak?
