LET IT SNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
"Come on Ripper…" Severus Snape whined. "It'll be fun, besides they deserve it!"
Giles, or 'Ripper' as he was known, sighed heavily. It was times like this he could understand why those bloody Gryffindor's called Snape 'Snivellous'. "Why ruin a perfectly good holiday over those four?"
"It won't be ruined, and it will get them back for turning our table into a swamp during the feast, please?"
"Okay, okay." Ripper relented. "But that idea sucks, I've got something a little more…seasonal in mind."

"…that's right gentlemen- we will be going home in exactly fifty-five minutes." James Potter grinned.
"Hey- it's Snivellous and his boyfriend!" Sirius spoke up delightedly.
Giles glared at them. He knew Potter and Black wouldn't do anything to him and Lupin and Wormtail wouldn't even touch Snape- but they were still the most tiresome wastes of air.
Potter and Black exchanged a look before lifting Snape with a charm and dropping him in the freezing lake. Giles fished him out, slightly reluctantly and uttered the drying spell before he caught his death of cold.
"Just you wait, you'll be sorry." Snape spluttered and followed Giles away to the sound of the marauders laughter. "When can we do it, Ripper?"
"Give me five minutes to set it up- we're lucky my uncle could loan us the machine."
"It's not a bit muggle for us, is it?" Snape asked hesitantly.
"Does it matter as long as it gets the job done?"
"I guess not."
Five minutes later, Giles and Snape hurried down the corridor, a strange machine hovering after them.
"Are you sure it will work?"
"Positive. Have you got the stuff?"
"In my bag."
The marauders were sitting under the same tree as when they had left, their backs to the duo.
"Hey, Pothead! Dog boy!" Snape called out.
As all the marauders turned towards Snape, Giles flicked the switch to 'full blast'. The foursome were flung backwards by the sheer force of it.
Snape cackled manically. "Let it snoooooooow! Mwha ha ha ha!"
Giles allowed a smirk to grace his stony features as the snow machine turned the Gryffindor's into human snowmen. When he decided that they were sufficiently coated in the fake snow, he flicked the machine off.
"Now, Sev."
Severus picked up his bag so the contents fell out- four different signs and four carrots. He said the charm that they had worked on to freeze the snowmen into one position and then said another so that they would take on the appearance of the occupant underneath.
A crowd had started to gather and they laughed as Snape and Giles stuck the carrots on the noses and hung the signs around the snowmen's neck.
'Pothead: the leader'
'Dog boy: his bitch'
'Rat face: the sidekick'
'Loopy: the brain'
Giles smirked further as his frozen enemies got laughed at and ridiculed by their fellow students.
"Come on Sev, our work here is done."
Severus tore his eyes away. "I bet they regret the lake thing now."
"Maybe they do, if they don't then we'll make sure they do soon. They'll regret underestimating the Slytherin's, you'll see if they don't."
