Thanks everyone for the great response - I guess I should make it known that I read a Rocky Horror/Potter-verse crossover about 2 years ago (it was called "Rocky Hogwarts Picture Show" - I believe?) But I wasn't happy with how it turned out and such so it's been on my mind forever to make one of my own. So the idea of the crossover isn't mine but the plot and whatnot is.
So with that said I would like to thank everyone who reviewed - you guys are awesome! I dunno if I should disclose this but I may be having second thoughts on the people I cast for the characters... I'm thinking about dropping Luna but I'm not sure. We'll just see how this chapter goes...
I'm having problems with the format of the chapters... so I'll be setting them up slightly different.
With out further ado... here it is!
A Rocky Hogwarts
Chapter 2
Dumbledore finally led them to a large room. When they entered they saw a long row of theater style chairs leading back to a huge stage. The stage had two large velvet curtains on either side that draped down to the bottom of the stage. There were props on the stage complete with "Beware" and "Do not go this way!" signs. There was a huge screen that clung to the back curtains on the stage.
"Now, I'm sure you're all wondering what exactly we're doing in here instead of the Great Hall enjoying our meal," Dumbledore said as angry and excited glares were returned to him. "Well, I've decided that each one of you needs to do your best to act out your character and I have decided the best way would be to arrange a showing of our own. So please take a seat and we'll get this started. I'll take questions at the end." He was replied with nods and whispers as the cast and crew began filtering through the seats and sat down. "Please observe your character and note their demeanor. Enjoy," and with the last comment the lights when pitch black and the screen lit up a luminous white glow before it also went black and a pair of lips appeared on the screen.
Throughout the entire show there were many remarks of disapproval, some exciting squeaks from girls and a few people singing along. Harry, although he would curse anyone who suggested it, was included in the groups of disapproval and singing. Hermione caught him humming "The Time Warp" and nudged him curiously.
"Harry, I find it very hard to believe you're not going to enjoy this play."
"Hermione, I hate you." He said sarcastically blushing and slinking down in his seat.
Ron on the other hand was at the edge of his seat expressing his feeling by saying things like, "I'm not going to stand in my underwear on stage!" and "Hermione! Harry'd be in women's clothes!" and "Heh, Malfoy'd finally have to act like the ape he is!" The rest of the cast had a similar commentary to add, while Ginny and Hermione all thought it would be kinda fun to see this show come to life.
Finally after the movie was over and the lights came back on, Dumbledore stood near the stage and looked over the crowd to see how much damage was done. "Now if any of you have any-" and before he could finish he was interrupted by loud voices all asking odd questions and stating strange comments. "Please one at a time."
Draco abruptly shot his hand in the air, and angrily gritted through his teeth, "My libido hasn't been controlled!"
To which he was kindly replied with various giggles and snickers and Harry turned towards him and said, "Now that really isn't Dumbledore's problem is it?"
"It was in the song you twit!" Draco roughly crossed his arms, and huffed, "This 'play' is sheer insanity! I will have no part in it." Dumbledore narrowed his eyes at him in a very 'oh-yes-you-will' sort of way. "Fine! But I'm not going to tan!" and he shrank back down in his chair.
Harry shot his hand up after and defiantly asked, "So what happens if we don't want to do this?"
"I would be very disappointed, Mr. Potter, if you choose not to be in this musical. And I know of others who would be as well." He started addressing the rest of the group, "I know that everyone was picked for a reason - you will do your best to act as the characters you are assigned." And with that reply everyone knew that there was no way to get out of this.
Hermione was the next to ask a question, "Do I get to wear a wig or should I transfigure my hair?"
"I believe that is your decision Miss Granger, however as this is satire I believe it would be somewhat comical for a wig." Dumbledore winked.
A few other questions were asked before Harry's hand was in the air again, "Do I have to wear makeup?" Dumbledore just smiled at him before Harry asked, "Well, the corset? The SHOES? THE NECKLACE?"
Dumbledore just continued to smile before saying, "Harry, these are very trademark characteristics of Frank-N-Furter." Harry huffed back into his seat.
Draco raised his hand yet again but didn't wait for a reply from Dumbledore before saying, "Why don't I get more lines? It's called 'Rocky' Horror Picture Show... why don't I get more lines?"
"Well as it's true your character's name is in the title, it is more importantly about Dr. Frank-N-Furter creating you."
"Well, could I ad-lib some?"
"I'm sorry Mr. Malfoy, you'll have to stick to the script."
Then suddenly Ron's hand shot up in the air, his face was red as he quickly blurted out, "Do I have to kiss Hermione?"
Hermione looked away from Ron, blushing considerably, as Dumbledore replied, "That will have to be worked out between you and Miss Granger, although it is in the play." He smiled. Finally Dumbledore answered other various questions before he announced, "Now I would like to give you each a script and I will put you into groups with your companion characters. Hermione, Ron would you like to go somewhere and rehearse? Draco, Harry - Here are your scripts."
But before Harry received his script he detestingly said, "But - Malfoy doesn't even have any lines!"
"Hey! I have a few!" Draco replied.
"Yeah. Three."
"I have a whole part of a song, Potter. And a love scene with Granger!"
And before Harry realized what he said he blurted out, "So do I, and with Ron and with you-"
Quickly the boys realized just how inappropriate this play was and as the turned towards Dumbledore to complain even more before he quickly interjected, "Boys - your scripts." And they both angrily stomped of to a corner of the theater not being used.
"God I can't believe he's making us do this!" Harry complained.
"I know! It's like something that snapped a long time ago came back and hit him in the head." Draco agreed.
Harry looked at him oddly, realizing he wasn't being a jerk and they were actually agreeing about something. This disturbed him so he changed the topic, "Can you sing? That's all you have to do so you better be good at it."
"I can sing, Potter. I'm a very talented singer - which is way more then I can say for you. You probably sound like a cat dying."
"Hey, I can sing!" Harry closed in closer to Malfoy and poked him in the chest, "I can sing very well and I already know the lyrics, which is WAY more then I can say for YOU!"
To avoid the pending fight, with Dumbleore and Snape lingering around, Draco asked, "How do you know the lyrics?" Harry stepped away and blushed slightly. "Jeez, Potter, how many times have you seen this play?"
"Enough to know the lyrics. We should probably start looking through the script." Harry changed the subject.
"Yeah, whatever, Potter."
The boys both continued to look through their scripts and make comments to each other about how insane Dumbledore has gotten before the man in question cleared his throat and announced, "As it is getting late and you have looked over your scripts well we can call this night to a rest. Thank you for your participation."
"As if we had a choice," Harry mumbled to Draco.
"Please meet back here tomorrow after supper in the Great Hall." And with his final words he dismissed everyone to return to their Houses.
Harry ran over to Hermione and Ron as they were waiting for him on their way out. "So, how'd it go with Malfoy?" Ron asked.
"This is going to be a long play," Harry sighed.
"You'll be fine, Harry. And it's not so bad," Hermione tried to cheer him up. "I mean... at least Snape wasn't actually a character in the play."
"Yeah, if I had a love scene with Snape I would Avada Kedavra myself."
The three continued to walk back to the Gryffindor common room. Harry trying to forget about the events of the night, Hermione extremely excited, and Ron caught between the two.
Yeah, I know there is a plot hole - the whole "muggle things don't work at hogwarts" well... the movie worked b/c it's magic! lol!
Also - I have no idea how Harry has seen RHPS so many times - he's just mysterious that way.
oh, btw I have a lil drawing I did of Harry and Draco as Frank and Rocky on my website...

P.S. My friend wanted to have a cameo in here but I said no but I said I'd mention him here. So if I were to write about him he would sneak in all quiet like and be like "Pow! Give me taco's! (The kind with black olives b/c I loves me my black olives!)" and his name would be Percivald Papadakis of the Asian witchcraft school of Ninjitsu. He is a ninja wizard. And thus ends his cameo.
