today, and I just had to remove that previous story and make it
right.So..major apology, please forgive me.
Chapter 3's up!
There was complete silence as the headmaster gravely looked around. Parvati Patil was sitting on top of Harry, and Lavender was in the middle of predicting his death, which was of course rather tragic. Ron was going to hit Fred around the head,with George standing behind him and preparing to hit him with a rubber haddock. Seamus was standing stock-still on the stage, he and Dean Thomas had been yelling for about 15 minutes whether Man U or Liverpool were better soccer team players.
And then Dumbledore came in.Everything was quiet except the mice squeaking around the hall.
"Well now, there is no reason for you to be so quiet, what's wrong with you?"Dumbledore laughed merrily.
"Oh dear, me,my Headship sir, we're utterly sorry---" Fred started.
"We never meant to be too noisy----"Lavender cut in.
"Now, now, that's all right..but we're all here because we signed up for the auditions right?" Professor Dumbledore waved off their explanations with a flick of his hand, " I'm sure we can't ever resist being rowdy once in a while, can we?" he looked pointedly at Fred and George with a twinkle in his eye.
"But now,we must attend to more important matters at hand.Firstly, I shall brief you on the details of this great project, then we shall go about 'brainstorming' as my muggle friend John Lanchester has always said, he's a muggle teacher of course.The final task for today is getting our tasks appointed to people, and then arranging a weekly meeting time for rehearsals.
"I knew that he would do this last week," Lavender whispered to Parvati, who nodded in agreement.
"I hope this is clear to you. Now, there are going to be people assisting you in setting about this..and I want you to know..that everyone in school is open to participation in this," Dumbledore looked about.
"Even the teachers,sir?" someone in the seats asked.Fred and George snigger.
"Even the teachers,"Dumbledore replied, smiling.Fred and George grin maniacally.
"And one last thing, before I leave you to the instructors, I want you to decide on what drama piece you shall be doing.." The students start chattering excitedly at this.
"I want Jane Eyre!" Millicent Bulstrode booms.
"Ha!Fireface is SO much better,"said some other kid.
"You've gotta be kidding, how about Romeo and Juliet?That is sooooo romantic."Lavender swoons.Lots of students start fake-barfing into their hands.
"However, I will restrict them to only, musicals. A full blown classical is too much work," Dumbledore said.Sounds of disappointment arise from the students, " now, your instructors, Patrick and Julie from the Magical Drama Company are here to guide you.Patrick, Julie?"
