SEVERUS SNAPE AND ONE HELLA SUMMER VACATION

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" Snape squealed as he bolted out the front gates of Hogwarts.

"SumervacationsummervacationsummervacationSUMMERVACATION!" he added at the top of his lungs. Students jumped aside as he tore down to the Hogsmeade train station, papers and quills flying from his satchel bag. He hopped nimbly onto the platform and practically flew through the door of the Hogwarts Express.

"Man, I am SO looking forward to this summer," he sighed as he plonked himself down in the seat next to Ron and Harry. "I'm gonna do all kinds of awesome things. . .go to the beach, see a bunch of cool new movies. . ."

"Um, professor," Ron started.

"Eat at Appleby's like, EVERY night," Snape continued. "I swear, I could totally live there. I hope the 'rents don't make me get a job. That would SO suck."

"Professor, do you actually have a house?" Harry asked. "I thought teachers at Hogwarts. . .you know. . .lived at the castle during the summer." The train began to grind into motion, blaring its whistle loudly.

Snape froze, wide-eyed. "Oh crap," he muttered. Hogsmeade's platform began to disappear into the distance. Snape jumped to his feet.

"STOP THE TRAIN!" he shrieked out the window.

-------- Author's note: In that last vignette when I said my name was somewhere in it, I was in fact referring ONLY to that chapter. Mad props to those who guessed Serene and Wesson, but no cigar. Here's a fun clue:

My first is the fourth of summer snow,

My fourth is the first of the last place you go.

My fifth is the second in at the same time,

My last is the third of rhythm and rhyme.

Ok.that's not so much a clue as it is another riddle. But it will GIVE you a clue if you solve it. ( What do you want? I'm a sucker for riddles!
