I Told You It's Dangerous

Chapter two: Surprising outcomes

A/N: Yes, I know the first chapter wasn't all that funny, but I'm working on the funny part as well. Here you will see what exactly was the nature of the spell.

Harry was half-awake, trying desperately to fall back asleep, as he still had some time before he would have to get up. The snoring of his dormmates was keeping him from sleeping and just as he was about to give up, when a scream echoed in the Gryffindor tower, waking up everyone

"Huh?" Ron said as he sat up.

"What was that?" asked a voice from underneath Neville's bed.

"A scream, I think", said Seamus as he got up from his bed.

"AAAIIIIEEEEEEE!" a new scream announced.

---

In less than fifteen minutes all Gryffindors were in the common room inquiring each other about the screams. Hermione had joined Ron and Harry and the three were now heading for the Great Hall to ask whether the other houses had heard them. And as it appeared, only the Slytherins, being the ones to reside in the underground part of the castle, hadn't heard them. Other houses were discussing the sounds among themselves. At that point many would have given just about anything to see the teacher's faces, but due to a unusually vicious explosion that had occurred the day before, the great hall was still filled with a thick gray smoke, which blurred the sight and one could only make out that everyone was present, but no facial impressions could be seen. Hell, Dumbledore could have dyed his hair bright red and nobody would have noticed. Save the rest of the staff table, of course.

"Do you think it was a teacher?" asked Fred and George (A/N: I'm not bothering to check, but I do think they're still at Hogwarts in Harry's fifth year)

"Seeing as none of the student seem to confess anything, I'd say it was either a teacher or Filch stepped on Mrs. Norris." Harry said

"Too bad we'll have to wait until lunch to find out", sighed Ron

"What do you mean?" Hermione asked

"Well, we have History of magic first, followed by double Potions with Slytherins. And as Dumbledore has already left the staff table, I don't see how could we gain any knowledge about the scream from either Binns or Snape", Ron explained

"That's true", Hermione agreed.

The History of magic had gone quite as Ron had predicted. Professor Binns didn't know anything about any abnormalities in the school grounds and started to lecture about the Goblin Rebellions once more. He must have forgotten that if someone was actually paying attention to him, they would already know every word he had to say. After they left the classroom they headed to the dungeons.

"What a lovely start for a morning", Ron complained, "first a very good attempt of boring you to death and if that doesn't work, you'll be observed to death in no time."

They were late when they arrived, but luckily, yet strangely, not as late as Snape was, and they had to wait for quite long before Snape showed up. The black-haired professor stormed by them towards his desk. Harry found himself looking after his potions master in bewilderment. He hadn't seen Snape's face, but he saw how the wizard's hips had gained a certain swing to them, making his striding walk seem elastic and easy-going. Harry had never expected the severe Potions teacher to move like that, as the style reminded him of the way very confident women walked.

He, as well as the whole class soon found that was not the only thing that was different about Snape, for as he turned around to face the class (after several seconds of hesitation, one might add) they saw the black eyes wore an expression they had never seen in them before. The nose was noticeably smaller than before, while it still had a crook to it, that too was much less obvious. The lips were fuller and even more visible against the pale skin and there was a obvious curve to them. This all was still framed by shoulder-length black hair, which looked less greasy than usual. Snape's hands were crossed above the waist as usual, which had not necessarily been a wise decision, as this tended to push the open robes back a bit and exposed the black shirt he wore underneath his robes, which was normally nothing to worry about, but this time, however, it gave the students a good view to the obvious bulge in the shirt's chest area. It would appear that Severus Snape had become Severina Snape, in other words, turned into a woman. Harry thought he'd finally begun to understand why some girls had been looking at the male version of Snape the way they had. Snape seemed annoyed. He - She scowled at her staring class a bit in a totally Snape- like manner, as if to say 'It indeed is me'. This, however, didn't make them stop staring. After what seemed like forever, she opened her mouth and spoke.

"If you would kindly cut that out, I would be glad to tell you about the -hmm- shrieks that I believe woke up half of the school this morning." Her voice was similar to his, but a couple of pitches higher. Even still so, it hadn't lost the velvety tone in it and although the low baritone had changed into a clear mezzo-soprano, it was still as calm and threatening as ever. The class changed their stares into observing looks they had learnt to wear in potions class.

"Well then", she said, eying the class, "Surely you too noticed the increasing amount of accidents during the past few days. I, along with professor McGonagall, professor Lupin and Sirius Black have been investigating the matter, and yesterday Mr. Black noticed a certain irregularity in one of the hallways. He alerted the rest of us as well as professor Sprout and madam Hooch. Together we all went to see it and we seem to have got rid of it, even though this morning all six of us woke up in a quite different body than we were used to, which, I believe, Explains the screams. Therefore, I am rather sorry to announce that Potions, Herbology, Flying, Defence against Dark Arts and Transfiguration classes are cancelled until further notice." She looked around the classroom, "Which means you can all pick up your cauldrons, get the hell out of here and keep away until said notice has been made." The class did as told and left.

The staff room was rather deserted, for the exception of the six transformed professors. Hannah hung his head and ran his hands through his short gray hair. Minerva was shifting in his chair as he didn't find her (A/N: I refer to anything that belonged or related to their former gender as their former gender) old clothing comfortable at all anymore. Same would go for the rest of them, as Severus (a.k.a. Severina) was ceaselessly adjusting the chest part of her shirt, as his clothing were rather tight for reason she could not remember nor understand and Remus was swirling in front of the mirror, wondering what could be done with his old robes to make them fit better. Finally, they all gave up.

"I think we need to visit Diagon alley to get new clothes", sighed Samantha as he made another worthless effort to move the waistline of her robes. Silent nods were the answer to the suggestion.

The next chapter: Diagon Alley.

A/N: You think it would be appropriate to make one of the former guys now chicks to have periods a.k.a. that time of the month?
