"Next!" bellowed a very tired Professor Snape. Sitting through an hours worth of poor auditions was giving him a migraine, and having only been through around a quarter of the auditionees (Hufflepuff house) didn't help. Rolling his shoulders and neck slightly released some of the built up tension, but not enough.

A timid first year Gryffindor entered the circular room, looking positively dreadful. Snape smiled maliciously, at the Gryffindor. This would be fun.

"Tell us a bit about yourself, the song you are going to sing and then sing it." he grunted.

"Uh...my name is Jessica Saint, I'm twelve years old...I'm going to sing colours of the wind, I hope you like it..." she mumbled.

She didn't even get the first line out before he called a resolving "NEXT!"

"But...But, I've hardly begun..." she stuttered. "I don't care. You cannot sing, and I hate that song. Get out."

After another four hours without intermission Snape was frustrated. Slamming his quill down he stalked from the room without so much as a word, leaving a very stunned professor McGonagall in his wake.

Making his way down to his personal chambers he set himself brewing an anti- ache potion. Honestly. Was there anyone in the whole school who could even remotely sing?

After calming down somewhat he made his way back to the audition room, just in time to hear the final person sing.

"Your in." he proclaimed without even hearing more than a few words. After all, how could he refuse Draco Malfoy?

The results were pinned up shortly after on every notice board. They read as follows.

As much as I regret to inform the Hogwarts population the following students are asked to meat with myself and Professors McGonagall after dinner this evening.- Professor Snape. Slytherin:
