Day 3 (Performance)

"Hey Hogwarts!" yelled Harry. "I'm the presenter of Hogwarts' Talent Competition!" applauses erupted in the Great Hall. "Ok, I will now introduce you to all the competitors," said Harry as the competitors walked on stage. "Ok we have… Colin Creevey! Hannah Abbott! Ginny Weasley! Dean Thomas! Hermione Granger! Pansy Parkinson! Pavarti & Padma Patil! Lavender Brown! Draco Malfoy! Michael Corner! And Neville Longbottom! Lets hear it for our contestants!" Harry yelled as he & everyone else in the Hall cheered.

"Lets start this party, ok so first up we have…" Harry opened an envelope, "Draco Malfoy with his ways on how to be sexy!" said Harry, almost without any enthusiasm. Everyone cheered as Malfoy walked on.

"Right-io! One of the most important things about being sexy; is feeling sexy & everyone knows you can't feel sexy without at least a tub of gel in your hair. For a sleek & shiny look you have the shampoo & condition your hair, then while it's still wet comb it, with a wide-tooth comb. Lastly when it's almost dry get your tub of gel, get a nice big handful & run it through front to back, repeat this at least twice. Then if you feel the need to comb it, please do so! Thankyou!" Draco bowed & walked off stage, as all the Slytherins clapped. Harry walked on with an odd look on his face.

"Ah… thanks for that… uh… advice. ALRIGHTY! Next we have," Harry looked at the parchment, "Miss Ginny Weasley, who'll be dancing!" Harry said excitedly, as Ginny walked on stage on a pair of trackies & a black singlet top. The music started & Ginny began a very complicated dance routine; which a had flips, splits & complex moves. When the song ended, Ginny bowed as everyone cheered, (Harry the loudest!) & she walked off.

"Go Gin! Wasn't that great! Ok next we have…" Harry consulted his parchment, "Colin Creevey with photos he has taken!" Harry said happily as Colin came on & conjured a screen thing so people could see the photos. "Right, this is the first photos I ever took at Hogwarts!" Colin said happily. Everyone laughed as a photo of Harry came up, then another one of Harry asleep; everyone was confused at that photo. After about 5 minutes of Harry photos, Harry stood up.

"Ok thanks Colin, bye, ok, next is…" Harry paused & looked at the paper. "Dean Thomas with some, hopefully, funny jokes! Take it away Deano!" Dean smiled at Harry as he walked on. "Getting right into it, I have two jokes for you guys.

1) There is a blond driving through the country. She has just died her hair brown because she is sick of being made fun of. She is really hungry. She stops at a farmer's house and says "Hi! If I can guess how many sheep you have, can I have one?" Farmer says ok. She quickly counts them and says "91!" The farmer looks around puzzled and says "Ok. Take one." When the Blond is walking back to her car the farmer asks "If I can guess your natural hair color, can I have my dog back?"" everyone laughed at this joke & after the laughter stops he continued.

"2) Two little kids, aged six and eight, decide it's time to learn how to swear. So, the eight-year-old says to the six-year-old, "Okay, you say ass' and I'll say hell'". All excited about their plan, they troop downstairs, where their mother asks them what they'd like for breakfast. "Aw, hell," says the eight-year-old, "gimme some Cheerios." His mother backhands him off the stool, sending him bawling out of the room, and turns to the younger brother. "What'll you have?"
"I dunno," quavers the six-year-old, "but you can bet your ass it ain't gonna be Cheerios" Ok thanks everyone!' Dean yelled as he walked off stage. Everyone was in stitches, once they were quiet Harry spoke.

"Alright go Deano! Ok next is…" Harry glanced at the paper, "Pansy Parkinson singing 'Don't Cha' by The Pussycat Dolls." Harry walked off.

"I know you like me (I know you like me)

I know you do (I know you do)

Thats why whenever I come around shes all over you

And I know you want it (I know you want it)

It's easy to see (it's easy to see)

And in the back of your mind

I know you should be on with me

Dont you wish your girlfriend was hot like me

Dont you wish your girlfriend was a freak like me

Dont cha, dont cha

Dont you wish your girlfriend was raw like me

Dont you wish your girlfriend was fun like me

Dont you, dont cha

Fight the feeling (fight the feeling)

Leave it alone (leave it alone)

Cause if it aint love

It just aint enough to leave a happy home

Let's keep it friendly (let's keep it friendly)

You have to play fair (you have to play fair)

See, I dont care

But I know she aint gon wanna share

Hmmmm..."

(A/N: sorry this is all the lyrics I could find on this song, just pretend it's all there & Pansy sang it all!)

Pansy was alright, everyone cheered as she finished & she walked off. "Thanks Pansy, cough ok next is…" he peeks at lines, "Hannah Abbott, modeling her own clothes, c'mon Hannah," Harry sat down & Hannah walked around on the stage, she was wearing a black mini skirt that was about mid-thigh & had thread coming off the bottom, black boots with 2 inch heels & had red hearts on the heels, a red top that had been cut roughly, to show some of her stomach in a rebel way. As for accessories she had one black fish-net glove, which she had attached red fabric to it. She walked off & Harry walked on & loosened his tie, "My god, that was hott!" he said as everyone clapped & cheered. "Harry!" yelled Ginny from the curtains, "Sorry babe! Anyways next is… I know this… that's right Hermione Granger," Harry walked off & gave Hermione a thumb up.

Hermione walked on & breathed in then began:

"I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did
You fell so hard
I learned the hard way, to never let it get that far

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust
Not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid,"

Hermione spotted Ron in the audience & waved. He smiled back. She was getting wrapped in the music & she meant every word she sung. This song was how she felt about her parents. They had betrayed her.

"I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake a smile, a laugh
Every day of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust
Not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

Hermione was afraid. She didn't her parents to leave her, it wasn't fair. They can't just send her a letter & walk out of her life.

"I watched you die
I heard you cry
Every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry
In the middle of the night
Over the same damn thing

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I tried my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
Because of you
I am afraid

Because of you…"

Hermione held the last note & the students clapped & cheered loudly. Harry walked on as she exited. "Was that awesome or what?' Harry said. Everyone cheered again, "Ok now for…" he quickly glances at paper, "The Fashion triangle, please welcome Padma, Pavarti & Lavender, who will share with us some fashion tips."

"Ok fist off! Whoever said orange was the new pink was seriously disturbed!" yelled lavender. "Ok now down to business, we want to tell you how important it is to wear make-up everyday! We cannot stress this enough people!" squealed Padma, Pavarti & Lavender nodded vigorously. Harry walked on, "Ok thanks for that, bye. Hmmm ok, next is Neville Longbottom."

"H-hi everyone, ah… I'd like to tell you about Gillyweed. Um… it's a weed; it's green & slimey & Harry used it in the Tri-Wizard tournament &…" "ALRIGHT! Thank you for that Neville, very educational. Now, lastly Michael Corner, who will be reading someone from the audience's mind!" Harry pulled Neville off stage with him as Michael hurried on.

"Hey everyone, ok I need a volunteer," immediately everyone's hands flew up. "Uh… ok, you there with the 'I love Hogwarts!' banner, what's you're name & what year are you in?" Michael asked, as a girl got on the stage. "Uh… my name's Hilary & I'm in my third year," said the girl shyly. "Alright Hilary, please sit on this stool & think of anything you want. Ok now write it on this paper," said Michael, gesturing to a stool in the centre of the stage & handing Hilary some paper. Once Hilary was done, Michael began. "Ok, you're, thinking of someone… someone you have a crush on… ok got it! You're thinking of HARRY POTTER!" yelled Michael, Hilary went red & nodded showing the crowd the paper with Harry's name on it.

Applauses rang out in the Hall, Michael & Hilary bowed & walked off the stage as Harry walked on. "I seem to be on everyone's mind tonight!" Harry said grinning. After a few minutes he spoke again, "Ok I have the results here, five, I repeat FIVE people are leaving tonight. Ok could all the contestants please come one stage, Thankyou," Harry added as they all came on stage in a line.

"Ready? Righty-o, Hannah, Pavarti, Padma & Lavender, Hermione, Ginny & Draco, you guys are… SAFE! Sorry Dean, Michael, Colin, Pansy & Neville you're gone! Cya in about three days, for the next performance!" Harry yelled as everyone clapped.

"I'm beat," Ginny sighed, she, Harry, Ron & Hermione were sitting near the lake after the concert. Ginny lay down, placing her head on Harry's lap & closing her eyes. Hermione smiled & lay down on the grass, looking at the sky. Then she felt someone lie next to her, she looked over & saw Ron grinning at her. "I'm taking Ginny to the common room she's falling asleep," Harry said, Hermione nodded & continued looking at the sky.

'Ok, tell him now! You're alone! Just say, Ron, I love you! Simple,' Hermione thought sighing. "There something on your mind?" asked Ron turning on his side so he could look at her. Hermione nodded, "Tell me," Ron whispered, Hermione looked at him. "Well, we've been friends like, forever, right," Ron nodded & laughed. 'He's laughing at me? What now?' Hermione thought. "Anyway, I love you," she whispered to herself, "What? I missed that," Ron asked confused. "Uh…I…" she stuttered. 'C'mon, say the three words: I love you!' Hermione's brain told her. "I lo-" she began.
