Chapter twenty three

Aragorn followed by Harry, Ron, Hermione Crabbe and Goyle made his way up to the transfiguration classroom where he found Legolas waiting for him with Draco who still looked like Harry.

mellon nin, you are taking too many leaves out of you brothers books, Elladan and Elrohir will be very proud of you when they hear of this

thank you Legolas said Aragorn turning to look at the other people in the room

"What did you think?"

"That was brilliant" said Ron, "but I will be getting funny questions from my brothers for weeks"

"Do not worry, we will tell them what happened" said Legolas, "but I fear that we will have to give these three the elven rest for that which should not have been seen"

"Yes that would be wise"

"Do you need any help?" a voice from behind them asked cheerfully

Turning around they saw Tonks standing in the door way beaming at them

"We are doing very well thank you" said Aragorn, "I was just about to transfigure them back honestly"

"How did you manage it though?" asked Hermione, "human transfiguration requires at least three wand movements"

"I did not know this but I suppose that the good professor Snape won't be able to tell that it was transfiguration then?"

"No" said Tonks, "but why go to so much trouble?"

"You remember the original cause of his anger? His unusual hair colouring? I did that to him, whenever he insults some one it will change colour"

"Now I can understand….Malfoy…obliviate" said Tonks and then left.

Snape was in a foul mood, his hair was I Gryffindor colours and he was behind on his marking. Then the only thing that could make his day much worse happened his arm started to burn.

Stumbling around his office cursing he picked up his mask and cloak and made a grab for a bottle of rat skulls, which was his portkey to Voldermort.

Snape arrived in the mansion in which Voldermort's entire order was organised, along side many others of Voldermort's inner circle. All turned to the door as it was almost blown off its hinges as lord Voldermort entered, immediately all were on their hands and knees moving forward to kiss Voldermort's robes before moving back into a circle.

"Malfoy, what news from the ministry?"

"my lord, fudge is still denying you return, he is less likely to believe anything that Dumbledore might say as his undersecretary who was at Hogwarts in the position of the defence teacher was turned into a toad by an irate student and all attempts to return her to her normal form have failed"

"Snape, what do you know of this incident, who is this student?"

"This student is a transfer student although I have not heard where he is from…my lord…Lucius may not know but this student was sent to Azkaban by fudge,"

"That is a shame he would have been a good asset to my death eaters…"

"But my lord…the student in question managed to escape the wizard prison and modify the defences so as to be impossible for anyone to be taken out of there, illegally…"

"What did he do with the dementors?"

"He destroyed them my lord…"

"He WHAT????...Snape this boy must he taken care of…also there is the matter of the creature my son cast Arvada kadavra spell on only to have in fail, what do you know of this creature? And what is that mudblood loving fool Dumbledore planning?"

"I know nothing of the creature you speak of I will be able to research it though as for the dung brained fool…" Severus managed to get no further as his death eater hood was filled with fizzy hair.

It seemed that Voldermort had notice the change in Snape's head shape; he pulled the hood off to reveal a shocked looking Snape gracing a large grey afro.

"What is the meaning of this? Answer me Severus, unless you need some pain to induce your tongue"

"I think it is the work of the powerful boy at the school or maybe that of his friend, whenever I insult someone it changes colour or style"

"since I need you to teach some of our newer death eaters how to perform the cruciatus, I would suggest you try to insult someone who will make your hair less of a nuisance under your hood…try it now…you will have five seconds under the cruciatus for each time you are unable to get a reasonable hair colour and style…begin"

"Harry potter is a spoilt rich brat," Snape's hair started to grow into a red and silver Mohican.

Voldermort looked at it speculatively and then said "that really isn't good enough Severus, try again…"

"Draco Malfoy could brew a potion to save his life"

Snape's hair grew blonde and so long that it reached his feet, Snape was panicking now he was only five seconds away from permanent memory loss.

"Severus Snape is a complete plantain"

Miraculously Snape's hair became shoulder length and a deep dark red that resembles blood.

"Well done Severus, now I think that since I need a lucid potion maker I will not be doing the cruciatus on you…your class will be…come along now, I am sure we all wish to see this…"

two hours later a very battered potions professor returned to Hogwarts, curse his ill fortune, Voldermort had decided that every person in Severus' class should torture him for ten seconds…with breaks in between, the sight of Malfoy laughing under his hood was enough to make Severus boil with hate towards his son who had done this too him. It was also unfortunate that his portkey had taken him not to his chambers but to the corridor out side the room of requirement.
