Summary: Severus and Remus are stuck in muggle hotels. Both happen to have AOL Instant Messenger on their computers….3 chapter story, eventually.
A/N: Some weird idea that hit me when my friends and I argued about muggle technology used by wizards.
Oh and another thing, I didn't feel like writing the whole thing now so this will be a 3 chapter thing and that's it. It won't lead into another story; it won't tie in with another story or anything. The next two parts will probably be up in the next day or so.
Internet Conversations, Dinner, and Dragon Magic
Part 1 Internet Conversations
B: Anutheal
Severus sighed agitated and not caring about dignity at the moment, plopped down childishly on the hotel bed. He glared at the white ceiling and annoyingly blue walls with disgust, Quit feeling sorry for yourself Snape, he thought.
Your not the only one who is stuck in a muggle hotel.
Dumbledore thought it wise after the brutal fight between the Gryffindor 6th years and the Slytherin 6th years that each group do a little experiment. He devised a plan to show them what it was like in each others shoes.
Flashback
"Watch it, mudblood," Draco coolly brushed past Hermione with a disgusted glance at her down his nose.
Hermione froze, pressed her lips together and flared her nostrils in annoyance, "stop it, Malfoy," she said coldly.
Draco froze in his tracks and turned around with a mock surprised look on his face, "Granger, did you just talk to me in that tone, I am shocked that you would even dare talk to your superiors without being asked first."
Hermione clenched her teeth and made to turn away, but then changer her mind swung around socked him hard in the stomach. He keeled over and she grabbed his shoulders and kneed him in the groan.
The Gryffindor portion of the crowd cheered, the Slytherins lunged.
In an instant a clash of silver/green and red/gold robes filled the halls. Shouts echoed down the halls, which were quickly answered by a swarm of teachers. Lupin and McGonagall and a few others pushed into the mass of bodies.
Severus stepped back from the mess and raised his hands and began making symbols in the air and spoke in a clear crisp voice
"Sky and Sea and Whirling Sands
Stop these creatures where they stand!"
T he powerful dragon spell was ended with a downward sweeping motion of his hands and everyone including the teachers was frozen in place. Dumbledore who the spell didn't effect walked up behind Severus and placed a hand on his shoulder, "thank you Severus, but I think it will be safe to release the teachers,"
Severus nodded,
"Fire and Cloud and Rain and Snow
Left the spell and let them go,"
As he spoke he raised his hands in a reversed motion of casting the spell. He could obviously direct the magic because only the teachers were released from the spell.
"Now," Dumbledore said walking towards the frozen Draco and Hermione who only could move their heads. Hermione was in the position to kick him in the groan again. He pulled the two of them apart as if they didn't have a gravitational force, "would either of you care to explain what happened?" they could tell he was angry because the twinkle in his eyes was gone.
"Excuse me, sir, it was Draco, he started it," Harry said which turned out to be a bad mistake.
"Mr. Potter, I think I was addressing Mr. Malfoy, and Ms. Granger. Ms. Granger?"
"He's telling the truth, sir, Draco did start it,"
"THAT'S NOT TRUE…." Draco started and looked like he was trying to fight the dragon spell.
Severus silenced what ever protest he was considering saying, with a disappointed glare.
"Well," Dumbledore said stepping back to survey the silent frozen group, "I have a very good solution for this problem,"
End Flashback
And it all went down hill from there. Dumbledore got a hold of the Wizard Camp, where young wizards can stay during the summer. It was like a pureblood wizard home; they could use magic and were usually waited on, etc, etc.
He also spoke with a Muggle Camp, and disguised himself with the story of a muggle teacher who wanted to send some students to camp for a few days.
The idea was, the Slytherins would go to the Muggle Camp, where they were not aloud to use magic, were not to be waited on have to do chores, and so on, and the Gryffindors would be sent to the Wizard Camp where they would live as a pureblood wizard would.
He assigned Severus and Remus to stay in a nearby hotel to the Muggle Camp so if any problems occurred they could handle it. Minerva and Professor Flitwick would go to a hotel near the Wizard Camp for the same reason.
No one was particularly thrilled with the idea.
Remus sighed and glared at the computer screen, he knew how to work the device and to his surprise so did Severus who gave no explanation how he knew.
You have received and IM from an unknown sender, do you wish to accept.
Yes No
He hit yes only out of boredom and the IM box popped up.
SerpentsPotion13: Lupin?
Remus balked, whoever the sender was knew him, so he responded.
WerewolfsMoon: Yes…..who is this?
SerpentsPotion13: Severus
WerewolfsMoon: Severus? Snape?
SerpentsPotion13: Yes.
WerewolfsMoon: What are you doing?
SerpentsPotion13: The same thing you are
WerewolfsMoon: Why?
SerpentsPotion13: Probably for the same reason you are.
Remus leaned back in his chair as he stared at the screen, something didn't seem right. A pureblood Slytherin, number 1, knew how to use a muggle device, and number 2, actually spent time on it.
WerewolfsMoon: How did you get my screen name?
He felt like an idiot asking that.
SerpentsPotion13: It seemed fairly obvious.
Remus bristled, in annoyance, even over a computer screen he sounded so….he couldn't even describe the way he spoke.
WerewolfsMoon: Hungry?
SerpentsPotion13: Yes, dinner?
WerewolfsMoon: Meet you in the lobby in five.
SerpentsPotion13 has signed off.
Remus smirked, this was going to be interesting, and he just agreed to actually spend time with him. He didn't know what came over him.
Severus smirked, he knew that Dumbledore had this in mind when he assigned both of them to this group, but he couldn't just hide in his room all the time, and maybe, with luck, they could think of something to prevent this from happening again.
End Part One
I will update soon.
And the Dragon Spells, are from the book Calling on Dragons by Patricia C. Wrede, I figured when I added those spells that, one spell from a wand wouldn't be strong enough to get the whole group so I just added that bit to make Severus look stronger than he appeared.
