THE BOYS WHO LIVED

Chapter 19: Let's Get This Party Started

The dungeons were dark and cold as ever if one where to stick their left over lunch plate in there, there is a ninety nine percent chance that it will not spoil. Yet it is here that one man calls it home. He may be the resident defense against the dark arts professor but he is also the best potions master that Hogwarts has ever had. Severus Snape at the moment sat down in his quarters enjoying the few nights were he can just relax and sit in front of the fire.

It was also one of those few nights were he can jolt down things in his journal. He writes his life's story as well as the few poems that he wrote and their meanings in them. If one would ever think Severus Snape was a poet they would find themselves poisoned that second and their body used as ingredients for potions. Only one other person knew of this secret however and that was his godson Draco Malfoy.

It was the one secret that they shared together in this small common room. And it was this very night the night before the concert where the two Slytherins got together.

"So how are things going with Potter and his gang?" Snape asked as he took a sip of brandy, "Things could not have been better sir," replied Draco, "So now you know my secret then," Snape said and with that Draco nodded. "It was a risk of my mother to ask this of you sir," Draco said, "She may not look like it but she loves you very much," Snape replied, "Yeah," Draco replied, "Being disowned is not all that bad Drake after all as your godfather I am now your legal guardian till you graduate and go on your own," Snape replied.

Draco looked at his hands and then at the table it was then that he found the book. "You were writing again weren't you?" he asked, "I have nothing else to do," was the reply, "Enough about mehow about you and those Gryffindor friends of yours?" "Me and the guys are trying to see what songs we could use for the concert tomorrow," Draco said picking it up. He began to read through some of them, "If I didn't say any better Professor I think you have written something that can be transferred to music," he said, "Oh really?" Snape said raising an eyebrow in an inquisitive matter.

CHAMBER OF SECRETS

"You're joking right?" said Ron as he looked at the book, "Snape wrote this!" he nearly screech, "There is a lot you don't know about him Weasley," Draco replied as he sat down. The others gathered around the stage looking over Draco's shoulder to stare down at the book in his hand. "Some of this stuff is private but we can use some of his writings to music." Draco then found one, "…..In the middle of her pain, in the middle of her shame…" he read, "Wow he wrote about his mother a lot," said Neville, "Well she is the only person who ever gave him love when he was little." Draco replied as he got his guitar and started to play with some of the notes.

"Try a flat and then a sharp," said Harry as he got his guitar out, "You can't be serious Harry?" Asked Ron, "Aw come on Ron it is not that bad," said Neville. Ron then sighed as he moved over to the drums, "How about this for a beat?" he said and then tapped a tune with his hands. "Not bad," said Dean, "Wait make it slower to give it a more depressing feel," said Dean and Ron did so, "There!" "Hey didn't Harry write something about the Professor?" asked Hermione, "Oh yeah!" Harry said and ran to his bag.

He dug in there till he came up with his note pad and a pen. "I know it was in here…….HERE IT IS!" he said turning it to the page, "Black Cat?" asked Draco, "Well I thought of the name when I was at the Dursleys." "Yeah but Harry this is from a girl's point of view!" Ron said looking at his friend funny, "That is because I was thinking about something different at the time, to see something from a different point of view you know," he said and they nodded in understanding.

"We should practice after all tomorrow's the concert," said Seamus as he moved over to his keyboards. "Hey some of Kai's songs are in Japanese! Speaking of which some of your songs are in Japanese Harry," said Neville, "And?" asked everyone else, "Well we could mix it up you know," the pudgy boy said as he held his base. The others nodded as they started to practice till late in the night.

It was late when they heard someone walk into the chamber, "Who that could be?" asked Hermione as she walked up and opened the door. It was Heathcote from the Weird Sisters. "Hey Cote how's it going?" Ron asked, "Mind if we make a last minute adjustment?" he said and the band walked in, "Sure what do you need?" asked Harry, "Well me and me mates think we should combine our act for the opening you know mix it up a bit," Heathcote replied. "Sure why not?" Harry stated, "I think that would be great!" said Gideon as he walked in with their instruments and placed them down.

"Where is Hakkai by chance?" asked Orsino the drum player of the Weird Sisters. "She is still outside setting up last minute adjustments to the equipment and adding additional charms to make sure that they work tomorrow," replied Myron the lead singer. They nodded, "Well what is this about you wanting us to do a cooperative performance?" asked Harry.

"Well me and the guys were thinking of doing a performance that combines all three of our bands together," said Mike from the Dragon Slayers. "Yeah but Mike your group will be doing the day performance," said Gideon. "I know mate but think of it this way if we work together I mean we can do the background music while you guys get up and do a dance routine."

"You mean like pop boy bands!" Hermione said, "Well not exactly I mean we play a song and then it will change as the next group comes on and then we do a song together before they come on to do their act," this time it was Merton Graves the cello player who said so. "Ah now I get it I've seen it happen with American concerts," said Hermione smiling. "Hey we should get Hakkai to sing this song!" said Draco as he looked up from Snape's book.

Harry walked over and read that line, "Really?" he asked and Draco nodded, "Yeah this poem seems fit for a female to perform it." Replied Draco as he read it, "Oh wow it really does seem fit for a girl to sing it." Replied Harry as he read the poem through, "The only thing though is that most of Snape's poems are a bit dark." Said Ron as he grabbed something to eat, "Well he did live a hard life," replied Draco as he closed the book.

The bands decided to work on their routine till the Dragon slayers had to leave because they had the day shift. It was also later that Hakkai walked in and they filled her in on their last minute plans. "I think it is a good transition for the Dragon Slayers to the Weird Sisters and then on to the Boys Who Lived." Said Harry as they started to pack things up for the night making it ready for tomorrow, "So what time do you want us to come down and practice and then we will pass it on to the Dragon Slayers," said Duke the Lead Guitarist for the Weird Sisters.

"The Dragon Slayers have the day shift from nine to sunset and then you will go on for a bit or were you guys alternating?" asked Draco, "We are alternating between groups so that way they can take a break and then we fill them in and vice versa. You guys take the night shift." Was the reply. "Ok then what is to happen when we grow tired?" asked Ron, "Then they will have a dance with a DJ," said Hermione, "Dee Jay?" asked Ron, "DJ means Disk Jockey," said a voice and they all turned to find Professor Snape at the entrance. "Um we are finished copying your poems sir," said Draco as he handed the book back. Nodding his thanks Snape turned but before he walked away he turned his head slightly, "Good luck out there you will need it," he said with a half smile before he left.

THE NEXT MORNING

The Great Hall was bustling with activity as the students talked excitedly with each other of the days activities. Breakfast has never been so noisy in the entire existence of Hogwarts. Owls flew in and out carrying various letters and packages to the waiting students. Even though the dress code says casual some especially the girls wanted to dress nicely. Orders were flying in from the various clothing companies in the wizarding world and the students chatted amongst themselves and their new friends.

Harry's group seemed to be chatting to themselves going over the notes and tunes when someone shouted from the far left side where the Slytherin Table used to be. "Hey Potter lets see what your group can do eh?" asked a rather busty Slytherin girl declared but it was Draco who intervened. "Put a cock in that mouth Magpie or I will have to ask a troll to do it for ya!" he shouted and the girl huffed as she sat down.

"That was not a nice thing to say Draco," said Hermione, "She deserves it ya know," Draco replied, "After all she is the number one slut in all Slytherin house," Draco declared. "How do you know that Drake?" asked Ron, "For you the answer is no I did not sleep with her thank you very much, but Crabbe and Goyle did. Blaise and I knew better," as he ate Draco had everyone staring at him, "Well it is true I mean she sleeps with every single guy no matter what the year and we had to practically barricade the doors to keep her out. I swear to god that that girl is part nymph or at least part veela." Draco said as he dug into his pudding.

By the time breakfast was over the band quickly ran to their common rooms to change and then headed over to the Chamber of Secrets for practice and last minute instructions from Hakkai. And as they walked out to enjoy the day at the carnival they were shocked when they walked out the door to one of the secret passages and found it in full swing.

FESTIVAL OF MAGIC

As they walked out there was a sign on the top that said 'Festival of Magic' written in big bold flashing letters. Already they could hear the music of the Dragon Slayers as they entertained the crowds. The group enjoyed themselves playing games eating strange foods and going on some of the rides that happen to just show up. They laughed as they enjoyed themselves for the first time in a long time.

For Harry and Draco this is the first time ever to have fun. For Harry he had never been to a carnival before for the Dursleys kept him either at Mrs. Figg or in the car. For Draco he had never had the chance to go do to his parents.

Both boys started to finally laugh as they competed for the 'catch the pig' game which got them very dirty. After getting disapproving looks from Hermione she was surprised that when they stepped out of the pen they were clean again.

Eventually as the day went and the two bands began to tire the sun began to set across the field. The shadows from the forbidden forest began their crawl towards the carnival but stopped at the reflection of the lights. The lake glowed as Merpeople gathered glow lamps from below the surface and they look up to the stage.

"Alright guys are you ready?" asked Orsino, "We are nervous doesn't that ring a bell," complained Ron. "Big baby," complained Draco but he did not look any better. "Sod off Malfoy!" Ron shot back, "Make me!" Draco replied and Ron flicked him off because he spotted Hakkai walking into the room. "Are you guys ready?" she said smirking and they nodded shyly.

The boys were dressed in their black vests with their logo on the back and each differed in appearance. For Ron he chose not to wear any shirt under the vest and since he was sitting some leather pants that were charmed to be lose instead of tight on the inside. For Seamus he wore loose jogging pants with a tank top underneath the vest. For Dean he wore baggy clothes to make him look more hip hop or so he said.

Neville surprisingly decided to wear a shirt with the Hogwarts logo on the front and jeans. Draco being the only aristocrat wore his leather jacket with the band logo and black everything. The only thing that stuck out was his hair which is now more silver then platinum blonde. Harry was the craziest of them all dressed in a tight undershirt with black fatigues and a hat on his head turned backward that said DEATHEATER on it in big red letters. He wanted to start the show with a bang. He spiked his hair a bit to give him more of a punkish look to him he decided to be fun about it and made the guys put on black kohl around their eyes and made them look more stylish. And black fingerless gloves with gold chain on them.

The guy's kind of look like the typical punk band with Harry's lean frame along with Ron's sort of stocky build. Draco was a cross between lean and well toned. His white skin on the other hand made him look more like an elf.

As the final rays of the sun began to set upon the horizon the people gave their applause to the Weird Sisters before they introduced the band. As the music became alternated and changed Harry's group walked up and the Weird Sisters walked off the stage but not before making the lights suddenly went out.

Suddenly everyone started to scream when the lights suddenly went back on again towards the stage. The shop keepers having known about this closed shop early except for those who wanted to stay open throughout the concert.

It was then that the light shown on one single person. Because of the back lighting they could not see him very well except for his white shirt and glasses. People started to scream when they saw this and shout. It was then that the music began to play and the rest of the group showed up.

The person in the front pointed his wand to his throat and cast Soronus on his throat and started to pound the ground. Stomping twice and then clapping and repeated the process. He then started to sing and the crowd screamed.

Buddy you're a boy

Making big noise playin' in the street

Gonna be a big man some day

You got blood on your face, big disgrace

Kicking your can all over the place

By now the rest jumped in for this part of the song

Singing we will, we will rock you (ha ha)

We will, we will rock you

Draco: Keep the beat up,

Harry: why,

I'm gonna turn your heat up

Gonna get you on the floor, gonna turn your feet up

Rockin' you, like I never rocked you before

Draco: We're causin' utter devastation

You better believe that you can see

We're gonna rock and never stop and here we go again

Harry: Hit you with the flow again

Together: We'll bring it on again – shout it up

The audience started to scream as the Slytherin took over and then both started to shout.

We will, we will rock you

(Gonna rock, we gonna rock, we gonna rock you babe)

We will, we will rock you

(Gonna rock, we gonna rock, we gonna rock yeah)

We will, we will rock you

(Gonna rock, we gonna rock, we gonna rock you babe)

We will, we will rock you

Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go

Harry took the mike and everyone started to clap to the beat as Harry did not stop the beat from flowing. The crowd started to cheer and scream as they did their antics.

As Harry went back the others went into their respective parts again flawlessly.

Buddy you're an old man, poor man,

Pleading with you're eyes

Gonna make you something some day

You got mud on your face, big disgrace

Somebody better put you back in your place

The guys then jumped in at the last second to make it sound like they are encouraging the song. They played as if they are at a Quidditch game.

We will, we will rock you

(Gonna rock, we gonna rock, we gonna rock you babe)

We will, we will rock you

(Gonna rock, we gonna rock, we gonna rock yeah)

We will, we will rock you

(Gonna rock, we gonna rock, we gonna rock you babe)

(Gonna rock, we gonna rock, we gonna rock you babe)

We will, we will rock you

(Gonna rock, we gonna rock, we gonna rock yeah)

We will, we will rock you

(Gonna rock, we gonna rock, we gonna rock you babe)

We will, we will rock you

Singing we will, we will rock you (ha ha)

We will, we will rock you

Singing we will, we will rock you (ha ha)

We will, we will rock you

When they finished there was an explosion and the audience screamed as Draco tossed Harry his guitar and the 'boy who lived' started to jam on his guitar. Harry looked down and saw Remus with Tonks, Kingsley and surprisingly Snape clapping to the beat as well.

The guys then did a bow as they went into the next routine which Dobby and Winky appeared Draco then walked up with makeup on his face and his hair all wild. The audience screamed when Draco smirked and did a one eighty and pointed to the house elves.

Draco: You remind me of the babe

Dobby: What babe?

Draco: Babe with the power

Dobby and Winky: What power?

Draco: Power of voodoo

Dobby and Winky: Who do?

Draco: You do

Dobby and Winky: Do what?

Draco: Remind me of the babe

The music then began to play and the audience screamed even more when more house elves showed up which was all part of the rehearsal they did this morning. Draco then cast the Soronus spell and began to sing.

I saw my baby, crying hard as babe could cry

What could I do?

My baby's love had gone

And left my baby blue

Nobody knew

The house elves looked at him confused but Draco pointed to Dobby and Winky

What kind of magic spell to use?

Dobby: Slime and Snails

Winky: Puppy Dog's Tails

House Elf 1: Thunder and Lightning

Draco: Then Baby said

The audience started to clap to the beat for this and all began to dance to the tune. The entire band plus the house elves got into the song as they sang the chorus.

Dance magic, dance (dance magic, dance)

Put that baby spell on me

Jump magic, jump (jump magic, jump)

Put that magic jump on me

Slap that baby, make him free

Draco then went back to singing his part of the song

I saw my baby, trying hard as babe could try

What could I do

My baby's fun had gone

And left my baby blue

Nobody knew

What kind of magic spell to use?

Harry: Slime and Snails

Neville: or Puppy Dog Tails

Ron: Thunder and Lighting

Draco: then Baby said

Dance magic, dance (dance magic, dance)

Put that baby spell on me

Jump magic, jump (jump magic, jump)

Put that magic jump on me

Slap that baby, make him free

Dance magic, dance (dance magic, dance)

Put that baby spell on me

Jump magic, jump (jump magic, jump)

They went into an intermission with the boys jamming for a bit.

Draco: You remind me of the babe

Dobby: What babe?

Draco: Babe with the power

Dobby and Winky: What power?

Draco: Power of voodoo

Dobby and Winky: Who do?

Draco: You do

Dobby and Winky: Do what?

Harry then did a guitar solo with Neville and Seamus following

Dance magic, dance (dance magic, dance)

Dance magic

Slap that baby, make him free

Dance magic, dance (dance magic, dance)

When the song ended the boys had the loudest screams in the entire audience. It was then that Dumbledore walked onto the stage and everyone quieted down as he lifted his arms in a calming gesture. The audience calmed down when he took out his wand and cast Soronus on himself. "I thank you all for coming out today to celebrate this marvelous event." He said and the audience screamed. "As you know it was supposed to be a concert for Hogwarts students only but that has changed after recent events." He said and everyone screamed Dumbledore then took in a breath and then continued.

"As you all know this event marks a change in wizarding history. The gathering of many races whether human, vampire, werewolf, elf, centaur, hippogriff and so forth have all come to listen to these gentlemen sing their strange yet wondrous songs to us this evening." Again there was a screaming from the audience, "Wizards, Witches and Muggles from around the world have also gathered to here these gentlemen sing so without further a do I would like to turn the time over to our boys as they fulfill this evening with more music so sit back relax or dance what ever it is you folks do while they entertain you tonight," with that he walked back and Ron took the mike since Harry insisted.

"This next song we got here is from a bunch of story books our dear old friend Hermione read to us one day over the previous summer," he said looking nervous as he spoke on the stage. "Um if you are all familiar with the land of Narnia (there was a few nods from the muggleborns and half breeds in the human audience) well we liked the story so much we decided to do a number for it. It is quite entertaining trust me (with that many people began to laugh). It is a story about a bunch of kids in a war torn England finding a magical realm called Narnia well it is similar to the magical world.

It was actually Harry and Draco here who wrote the song with some help from the rest of us. When I saw Harry write this song I asked him why he wrote it and he told me that the song reminded him of when he first came to the magical world and found that he was a wizard. When both he and Malfoy wrote it, both felt that it was an eye opener for both of them being shown a totally new world. So without further a due we give you the song 'A New World,' by Harry and Draco."

The music began when both Harry and Draco hit their guitars at the same time. Harry then walked slightly in front to let people know that he was singing.

Narnia…

No one believed her

No one imagined it was true

No one could see her winter haven coming into view

She says she's seen the land beyond

She said she's walked her Babylon

She felt the cold beneath her feet

And time stood still where the winter won't sleep (Where the winter won't sleep)

I've seen a new world…like nothing before…just step through the door right

Into a new world…into Narnia

I've seen a new world…like nothing before…just step through the door right

Into a new world…into Narnia

The music played as they paused before Harry stared to sing again.

All hope was fading…a darkness far beyond their might

But love came crusading on the wings of healing sacrifice

He gave them something to believe

Came back in all his majesty

He conquered evil through his love and handed them the land they were dreaming of

In this Harry started to think of Dumbledore and the house of Gryffindor as well as the other houses and what they represented.

I've seen a new world…like nothing before…just step through the door right

Into a new world…into Narnia

I've seen a new world…like nothing before…just step through the door right

Into a new world…into Narnia

I never dreamed it but it seems that he's alive again

Shaking his mane he's just the same as I remembered him

The spell is weakening with every breath he's breathing in

And when he roars she can't ignore that he's our king again

Harry: There just beyond the lamppost

I've seen a new world…like nothing before…just step through the door right

Into a new world…into Narnia

I've seen a new world…like nothing before…just step through the door right

Into a new world…into Narnia

I've seen a new world…

Into a new world…into Narnia

Narnia

When they did the final number everyone screamed and there was a loud applause from the audience as they all danced the last part of the song. It was then that they wanted to do the next number and Ron hissed at Harry to do the number he had been working on in his room the night they all heard him. Harry nodded and gave the signal to Draco and Neville, "We are going to take it down a notch this song was done by me," Harry said to the audience, "It is made in the memory of my dad and my godfather the late Sirius Black had done. This song I made is called My Goodbye" with that he signaled to Dean and Seamus.

Dean began to play a sort of horror song and Harry began to strum his guitar and Ron tapped on his symbols. The song was haunting at the most. And everyone quieted down to listen as the music started to move them a bit. It was down to earth yet haunting and in the middle of it all was Harry as his voice no longer jumping but haunting.

Hey precious daddy can you hear me now.

From the lost and found although your six feet underground.

the mirror, I can see your face

just another trace of all the tragedy you passed down.

There are times when I can hear your voice,

it's just like my voice and it still haunts me when you come around.

The music started to pick up as the others added their tunes.

I feel like I wasted time when I didn't have you on my mind.

I feel like I'm all alone, how could I have known you would leave

me here alive.

At this rate Harry yelled the next part towards the heavens as the stars shown bright.

Oh my God, how did I make it this far?

Why can't I be where your are?

My God I think I'm dying.

Looking back at the ground he started to strum each depressing note.

Precious daddy can you hold my hand like you did back then?

Can you forgive me of all my sins?

At this rate Harry started to show tears in his eyes at the memories of Sirius and all the times they had together the few times they had together anyways. He also remembered the few memories of his father James Potter. All the people who have died for him he sang for them.

Come to me and take this pain away cause its all I see.

It would be heavenly to see you again.

I feel like I wasted time when I didn't have you on my mind.

I feel like I'm all alone.

How could I have known you would leave my side.

It all was so simple then when it all began, and I was your smile.

And now you're just words in stone,

you're just dust and bones and I'll join you there in time.

Once again he rose his voice to the heavens and shouted the next part.

Oh my God, how did I make it this far?

Why can't I be where you are?

My God I think I'm dying.

Oh my God why can't you take it away

or give me just one more day of just apologizing.

At this moment Draco yelled the next part

How could you take him from me?

Its like you spit in my face.

I've got his grandson to raise, with no grandfather to say.

The intermission was a little more upbeat but still carried that haunting tone to it.

Don't let him end up like me cause he'll be down on his knees,

asking you where could I be.

I wonder what you would say?

I feel like I wasted time when I didn't have you on my mind.

I feel like I'm all alone.

How could I have known you would leave my side.

It all was so simple then when it all began, and I was your smile.

And now you're just words in stone,

you're just dust and bones,

and I'll join you there in time.

Oh my God, how did I make it this far?

Why can't I be where you are?

Oh my God I think I'm dying.

Oh my God why can't you take it away

or give me just one more day of just apologizing.

The audience screamed as the song came to an end and Harry looked up at them with tears in his eyes. The expression was there alright giving his heart and soul into the music as if to say goodbye to those who loved him dearly.

The next song was fully instrumental as they decided to let their vocal cords take a break while they played. It was sort of Arabian type of music mixed with rock that gave an eerie feel to it yet fitting to the environment that they are in. It was Ron's idea since his brother Bill works in Egypt. Hakkai told them of a video game about a Prince of Persia and his quest to restore the sands of time or so she says. Ron having the idea had did a number with Neville and from there worked around it. The audience took this time as an intermission to do a break and then Hakkai then played a few songs on the sound machine while the boys took a break.

The break was a well needed rest as the guys sat back in their room or had gone to the bathroom. Hermione brought them something that Dobby and Winky had worked on. It was their way of saying thanks for including them. "Hey we should sing one of Professor Snape's songs," said Draco and the boys looked at him in wonderment before agreeing. "Alright hey Hakkai!" yelled Ron as he stood.

The dragon in turn walked in, "What?" she asked, "Do you want to do a few numbers with us?" asked Ron and Hakkai smirked, "What do you have in mind?" she asked and Ron filled her in.

AFTER THE BREAK

The audience screamed at the top of their lungs when the boys walked back onto the stage again. This time Hakkai walked up with them. She wore her hair down and wild but it was cut to make it in style. Her glasses were off but she did not care. She waited in the shadows with her blowing robes flowing around her.

Harry walked up to the stage and everyone screamed as he held his steel guitar around his shoulders. "Our next number was actually written by the most unlikely of people, and it will be sung by the most unlikely of people. It was actually written by me as a spur of the moment kind of thing. It was actually written right after that last episode with Voldemort…now don't shudder it is just a name if you want to hear something funny call him Moldy Warts or something like that!" he said and everyone started to laugh. "Well to the person who this song goes to it goes to none other then Professor Severus Snape a man who risked his life to protect the innocents by going undercover and revealing valuable information to the protectors of the light. It is written from a female point of view to give the song a little more flavor to it. Something the professor dreamed of sometimes I know he does.

This song is called Black Cat and none other then our mentor Hakkai Hunter the woman or Dragoness who made this all possible so give it out for Hakkai Seiryuu Hunter!" he shouted that last part out loud and the audience screamed at the start of the music when Ron started to play the beat on his drums.

It was like the sound of a wild cat in the beginning when he started to play. Dean joined in by adding a beat to it then Harry came in with his guitar. Draco followed his lead and Neville soon afterwards. During that time the audience was surprised as a shadow walked out from where the boys were standing. It made its way towards the stage and everyone screamed as Hakkai stood in the robes of the Potions Master of Hogwarts. The only difference is that the robes she wore were more like those of a Goth.

It was her voice however that caught the audience off guard it was tough and sounded of someone on the streets.

All the lonely nights I spend alone
Never around to love me
You're always gone

The audience cheered as she sang and some began to dance to the music

Cause you're hangin out
Breakin' the rules
Oh the man has come
Looking for you

You're a rebel now
Don't give a damn
Always carrying on
With the gang
I'm trying to tell you boy
It's a mistake
You won't realize
Til it's too late

Kai started to dance a little swaying her body and everyone shouted at her

Don't understand
Why you insist
On ways of living such a dangerous life
Time after time you stay away
And I just know that you're telling me lies

Black cat
Nine lives
Short days
Long nights
Livin on the edge
Not afraid to die
Heart beat
Real strong
But not
For long
Better watch your step
Or you're gonna die

Harry looked off towards the audience and spotted the dark wizard smirking approvingly at him before giving him a thumbs up. Harry looked down and found Snape tapping his foot to the beat. Turing back towards the song he saw that Hakkai did her own little dance and the audience danced to the tune.

You're so together boy
But just at a glance
You'll do anything
If given a chance
Scheming, plannin lies
To get what you need
So full of promises
That you never keep

Don't you tell yourself
That it's okay
Sick and tired of
All of your games
And you want me to stay
Better change
Makes no sense to me
Your crazy ways

Don't understand
Why you insist
On ways of living such a dangerous life
Time after time you stay away
And I just know that you're telling me lies

There was a pause there when Harry started to strum and Hakkai smirked

Not afraid to die…..GUITAR!

It was Draco who did the intermission of the song as he played the solo. The girls in the audience all reached up when he moved towards the end of the stage before walking back. Hakkai began to take a break from the song and speak the next part.

Black Cat!

Black cat

Man I don't understand your ways

Living on the edge

At this time the music went up again as she sang the next part.

Don't understand
Why you insist
On ways of living such a dangerous life
Time after time you stay away
And I just know that you're telling me lies

This time she signaled to the guys and they filled their voices

FELLAHS

Black cat
Nine lives
Short days
Long nights
Livin on the edge
Not afraid to die

(talking 'bout the man)

Heart beat
Real strong
But not
For long
Better watch your step
Or you're gonna die

(sing it up!)

Now the audience started to chant the chorus of the song which was very surprising to a few people. Snape turned and looked at Dumbledore who only had his twinkle in his eye sparkle brighter.

Black cat
Nine lives
Short days
Long nights

(yeah, yeah)

Livin on the edge
Not afraid to die

(No don't you die!)

Heart beat
Real strong
But not
For long
Better watch your step
Or you're gonna die

When the song came to its final ending everyone kept chanting "BLACK CAT, BLACK CAT!" it was exciting and the boys puffed up with pride. Hakkai gave them the signal again and they started to play a different song. This one was written by Hakkai and the students especially were ecstatic. She then waved her hand over her clothes and they changed into something she normally wears. Her Deatheater hat on her head along with her fingerless gloves, baggy shirt with the

Ooh.. I'm not
You average type Of girl
I'm gonna show the world the strength in me
That sometimes they can't see
I'm about to switch my style
And soon things may get wild
But I will prove I can conquer anything
So from my head to toe I'm taking full control
I'll make it on my own
This time
(Better watch me shine)

With that Hakkai began to dance showing off her hip hop moves she had learned at home to the delight of the audience and she moved with much enthusiasm. She moved with the rhythm and to the beat.

Better watch out
Going for the knockout
And I won't stop
Till I'm on top now
Not gonna give up
Until I get what's mine
Better check that I'm about to upset
And I'm hot now
So you better step back
I'm taking over
So watch me shine

So Get ready
Here I come
Until the job is done
No time to waste
There's nothing stopping me
Oh
But you don't hear me though
So now it's time to show
I'll prove I'm gonna be the best I can be
So from my head to toe
My mind body and soul
I'm taking full control
This time

Everyone screamed at that last ending and Hakkai had her arms out. The audience danced to a few more songs from Hakkai and then Harry and the group took over laughing as they watched the people dance to the music. When the band decided to call it break time they were shouts of 'One more!' "One more please!" the band played one more song and then they packed up and left.

Hakkai in the mean time played a few tunes of music for them to dance to and enjoyed it. It was a surprise however to Harry, Ron and Hermione to see Remus dancing with Tonks of all people. Harry laughed and then turned only to find in shock a group of ghosts staring at him and smiling. It was his parents and Sirius smiling at him. Smiling his mother nodded her head and Harry turned his head to find Hakkai behind him. The dragon nodded towards the ghosts and they smiled.

She turned her head and noticed while Harry was occupied with his parents the other ghosts of Hogwarts showed themselves and started to dance as well even Peeves. "Thank you," said a deep yet rough voice said and turning Hakkai found Professor Snape standing behind her. "The pleasure is mine Professor it was shall we say a way to express my gratitude for saving them," she said and the dark potions master nodded.

The music changed again to a more techno song and everyone danced wildly to the tune. "Why aren't you out there dancing?" she asked, "I am not much of a dancer," he said, "when groups are in mass they don't care how good you are just as long as you move your body to the beat of the music. After all having fun does things to you," she said. She then extended her hand to him and he looked at her strangely, "The next song is coming up with the band after this and I think it is time to put old grudges aside and begin with a fresh plate," she said pointing to Harry and Snape nodded. "I think you would have made a very conniving Slytherin Ms. Hunter," he said and the dragon nodded.

When the music died down Hakkai walked onto the stage again with Harry and the guys for their final performance with Hakkai singing lead the rest of the night. She turned to the professor and gave him thumbs up when he saw a witch standing by herself near the food area. Go to her she said smirking as the dark professor gave a glare. Hakkai raised and eyebrow and then inclined with her head. The professor then walked over.

"Is that what I think he is doing?" Ron said and Hakkai nodded, "Time to show them what I can do," Hakkai said as they walked up and she took the wand but instead conjured a microphone. "I feel better this way," she said and they nodded.

The music stared to play as the band got back into session with Seamus starting off and they all smiled when Hakkai held the mic up to her face.

Turn Around

Look at what you see

In her face

The mirror of your dreams

Make believe I'm everywhere

I'm hidden in the lines

And written on the pages

Is the answer to a neverending story

Everyone started to cheer as she sang with a child's voice.

Reach the stars

Fly a fantasy

Dream a dream

And what you see will be

Rhymes that keep their secrets

Will unfold behind the clouds

And there upon the rainbow

Is the answer to a neverending story, story

It went into an intermission with Draco

Show no fear

For she may fade away

In your hands

The birth of a new day

Rhymes that keep their secrets

Will unfold behind the clouds

And there upon the rainbow

Is the answer to a neverending story

Neverending story

The music rapidly changed as Seamus started again this time a more techno song and everyone started to scream when Hakkai walked towards the edge of the stage. The song she started to sing was pulse pounding as everyone danced to the tune.

You're giving me too many things

Lately you're all I need

You smiled at me and said,

Don't get me wrong I love you

But does that mean I have to meet your father?

When we are older you'll understand

What I meant when I said "No,

I don't think life is quite that simple"

When you walk away

You don't hear me say please

Oh baby, don't go

Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight

It's hard to let it go

The daily things that keep us all busy

Are confusing me

That's when you came to me and said,

Wish I could prove I love you

But does that mean I have to walk on water?

When we are older you'll understand

It's enough when I say so

And maybe some things are that simple

When you walk away

You don't hear me say please

Oh baby, don't go

Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight

It's hard to let it go

Hold me

Whatever lies beyond this morning

Is a little later on

Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all

Nothing's like before

When the song finally ended everyone screamed as the band took a bow and the music came back on for another round and this time a slow song started. Everyone started to grab a partner. It turns out that the woman that Snape was checking out was not interested and walked away. "Poor guy," said Dean but were surprised when the man shrugged to go sulk in the shadows. It was then that they noticed that Hakkai disappeared.

It was Neville who looked in shock at Hakkai as she walked up to the stoic Potions Master and asked him to dance. Blushing the professor bowed low and slowly offered his hand but the words out of his mouth were lost to the music. Harry turned to find Dean on the sound machine mixing music while everyone danced the night away.

"Hey Harry wanna dance?" asked Ginny as she walked up to him. Harry blushed, "Don't worry I know your problem so I am here to help remedy that," she said pulling him into the dancing audience. The rest of the band followed enjoying themselves. When the music finally died down and everyone packed up ready to leave Hakkai had the wizarding folk help her take down the stage which went a lot quicker since everyone figured out how to shrink everything.

The night was long and fun but like everything all good things must come to an end. As the students and the various families packed up they walked towards the apparition point or towards the portkey points as everyone left to return to their homes after a night of fun.

As the students returned to the school they felt exhausted as they all waited for the showers or just jumped into bed before even hitting the showers. Exhausted the band did not bother to change their clothes before hitting the pillows of their beds. (or in Hakkai's case perched on the astronomy tower.)

It was only the beginning for tomorrow the second half of the concert is about to begin.
