Disclaimer: Harry Potter does not belong to me nor does the story of
"Aida". I am not making money off of this, for if I was, I'd be sued.....
A/N: I had to change up the prefect system for this story. Instead of just prefects and Head Boy/Girl, I've made head prefects of the houses. And now....
How Does the Serpent Sing?

"I have had entirely enough of this childish behavior from all of you!" Professor McGonagall scolded the Gryffindor and Slytherin Quidditch team.
"Well, Professor," Marcus Flint, the Slytherin Captain started, "It really was the Weasleys fault. If they weren't so prat-like we - "
"Mr. Flint!" Professor McGonagall interrupted, "Do NOT insult my team members in front of me."
"Fine," Flint said, folding his arms across his chest. For a few moments there was silence, than Charles Warrington, a Slytherin chaser, broke the silence by saying, "Erm, Professor, I believe you were in the process of punishing us more severely than your beloved Gryffindor team."
"Mr. Warrington! Do not accuse me of favoritism when it comes to punishment. I have an equally embarrassing punishment for both of you," McGonagall responded curtly, "It is not usually our custom, but I am resorting to a Muggle punishment."
"Muggle?" a female voice asked from the door, "You're seriously going to make the Slytherin team partake in a Muggle punishment?"
"Ah, Ms. Locke, the voice of wisdom of the Slytherin house," Professor McGonagall responded with a hint of sarcasm in her voice, "Why are you here?"
"Well, my duties do entail overseeing ALL aspects of Slytherin house, which includes the Quidditch team and their punishments. In short, I'm here representing Professor Snape," Locke replied taking a seat next to Flint.
"Representing? You are only a prefect, you can't know what Professor Snape wants," said McGonagall eyeing her suspiciously.
"Correction, Head Prefect of Slytherin, and Professor Snape told me, in full detail, what he does and does not want. So, if you would be so kind as to continue with your EQUAL punishment of the teams, that would be most satisfactory, seeing as I have other duties to attend to," Locke replied, crossing her legs and placing her hands on top. Flint scoffed at her remarks and she shot him a death glance.
"Very well, as I was saying, before the Head Prefect of Slytherin interrupted me," Professor McGonagall said as she shot Locke a hostile glance, "you're punishment is to stage a play."
"A what?" Warrington asked.
"A play, a musical," McGonagall responded.
"A musical?" Ivan Bole, a Slytherin beater, asked? "It's a thing that muggles go to that involves singing and dancing," Harry interjected.
"Singing?" asked Warrington.
"Dancing?" asked Bole.
"Who's going to do it?" asked Locke. Both teams looked at her as if she was sprouting three heads right before their eyes.
"Excellent question, Ms. Locke. I have decided it is to be a romance, changed around a bit to fit our needs, and our two starring roles will be Mr. Flint and Ms. Bell," Professor McGonagall replied with a smirk.
"Flint? Singing?" Rexius Montague, another Slytherin chaser, sniggered, "That's as likely as him shagging Wood."
"Well, if he doesn't, I can assure you a much more...undesirable punishment will be found," Professor McGonagall said, "Now, Ms. Locke, what does the voice of Snape say?"
"Let me attempt to reach the inner Snape," Locke said as she closed her eyes and started softly humming.
"The 'Inner Snape'?" Flint asked as Locke waved her hand to shut him up.
"The Inner Snape says it's a ridiculous idea and won't accomplish anything and that you really need to get back on the punishment band wagon. Two words: toilet scrub with nothing but toothbrush," Locke said after a few seconds of thinking.
"Excellent, Ms. Locke, you can be our second female lead," Professor McGonagall said happily. Locke sat there with a confused look on her face. "Second female lead?" Locke asked.
"Oh, yes, I have all the parts here, we will be using your actual names because it's a lot easier that way:
Helena Locke - the second head of Slytherin house Marcus Flint - the Captain of the Slytherin Quidditch team Katie Bell - a Gryffindor chaser Charles Warrington - Marcus' faithful companion and friend to Katie Rexius Montague - Marcus' evil father William Derrick - Head of Slytherin Alicia Spinnet - a Gryffindor chaser Oliver Wood - the Captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team.
All of your parts should be fairly familiar to you. Now, please exit my office and be in the Great Hall promptly after classes." Professor McGonagall said, and added as a side note, "All of you."
The teams left dumbfounded and wondered what insane things they would have to do as punishment.
