The Charmed Ones – Chapter Eight
A/n: I know, I know *ducks behind big little brother (lol)* I'm sorry, it's just that everyone seems to think I've got to much free time (and they're very very wrong…)… Normally teachers, and then when I DON'T have to go to school there's always friends, family aaaaaand things like a ball (that was soooooooooo cool J) from my school… but I'm really very sorry and I'll try to hurry and write the next chapter also, deal? As always THANKS FOR REVIEWING, LOVE YOU GUYS!!! Thankyou-notes and stuff at the end of the chapter
~WARNING~ I'm thinking about changing my author-name. Just to let you know…
Something strange was happening at Hogwarts. Well, besides three students switching bodies, there was another thing. The rumour was professor Snape was being nice to students, and that scared the shit out of them. They expected him to explode any minute, even the other teachers were avoiding him a bit… Not that they didn't normally keep a distance (you know, grease…), but this was highly unusual.
A rumour was he'd given points to Gryffindor. Telling you everyone was shocked is pretty much stating the obvious. But when Dumbledore started to smell something that oddly like conditioner coming from his hair, he started to get a little worried.
We meet again at a lovely Friday morning, in the dungeons, the classroom of the above mentioned professor Severus Snape to be exact. The Slytherin and Gryffindor 5th years were having double Potions together, as usual Draco Malfoy had been trying to suck up to the teacher.
"Professor, I must say, your hair smells lovely," Draco said.
Snape looked at him like he had gone crazy, "Uhm… Yeah, thanks?"
Draco stumbled back to his chair, he didn't notice the leg sticking out and tripped over it backwards.
"Mr Malfoy, why exactly are you lying on the floor?" Snape asked.
Draco got bright red and hastily sat down in his chair. He glared at Potter and his gang, it had probably been one of them.
Phoebe could hardly hold back her laughter, for some strange reason she didn't like the Malfoy-kid.
"HARRY!" Prue hissed, "Don't do that!"
"Aww c'mon Hermione, I never got to do this kinda things when I was younger. Besides, judging by the way he's glaring at us, the 'real' us do something like this to him too."
"And it WAS funny," Piper added, "you'll have to admit that. Did you see the look on his face?"
"Alright, alright," Prue said giving in and laughing with them, "I can't believe he said that 'Professor, I must say, your hair smells lovely,'" she imitated him.
At this the three of them burst out laughing and they only laughed harder when they saw Draco glaring at them.
They were supposed to make a Notus-potion, when you drank it, you would be able to sing with a really beautiful voice. It generally improved your musical feeling.
Prue, Piper and Phoebe had been staring at the ingredients, everything looked so… weird. Even though Piper made potions at home, it was completely different from what they had to do here.
"Uhm… What the heck is a 'Lignus' anyway?" Phoebe asked, looking at the other two.
"Good question."
"I have no idea."
"Alright, now, uhm… I think we should just throw everything in and then stir real good," Phoebe said, "Anyone have a better idea?"
"Nope."
"Me neither."
So that was just what they did… They were actually having fun doing this!
"Eww, look, it's… green…" Prue said.
"I know! And what's THAT?" Piper exclaimed, pointing a weird black stone-shaped thingy.
"Now it's turning yellow…" Phoebe looked at the weird product of their 'creative' Potion-making.
"Alright, Harry, give me the spoon-thingy, I'll stir and then I think we're done," Piper said.
"Are you sure? I mean, it looks kinda dangerous."
"Don't be silly, I make potions all the time."
"Just as long as you don't blame me if you get poisoned or something."
When Piper was done stirring the potion it was a more pleasant sky-blue. She looked in Seamus and Dean's cauldron, she let out a sigh of relief: their potion had the same color.
Just then professor Snape was checking their work, for some strange reason he'd given every potion an A… When he came to their table, he dipped his shiny silver spoon (3 s's lol, I'm stupid, I know) in the blue goo (lol) and BOOM!!!
There was a loud explosion and when the smoke cleared up the whole class started laughing at Snape, Piper, Phoebe and Prue. All their faces were decorated with black smudges, their hair had gone electric green and stood straight up at weird angles. Piper's was a heart-shaped figure, Phoebe had a circle, Prue a square and Snape's hair was modeled in a triangle.
Lucky for them, the bell rang. Everyone hurried out of the classroom, not wanting to wait for the shouting that was most definetly about to start. Phoebe, Prue and Piper grinned at each other.
"Uhm… Whoops?"
They grabbed the remainder of the cauldron and headed to their next class. Leaving behind Snape who was still blinking his eyes confused at what had just happened.

And now for some bowing down deeply in respect of the nice people who review:
Eric: Thanks for reviewing, love you *mwah* you notice things about my story even I miss… Maybe we ARE related, lol, can I adopt you as my big brother?

Bill: you can't guess… me neither… lol, thanks
Caleb Jones: woah THANKS!!! Uhm.. for the big question: no, Hermione doesn't know and that's because *I* didn't know that when I started writing this, it's like this: she knows what I knew when I wrote chapter one and since that hadn't happened here yet, she doesn't know. Does that make any sense?
