Chapter One
Reproduction
A groan escaped her lips at the bright light shinning on her face. "You're going to be late for breakfast if you don't get up," Came the overly cheery voice of Cara. Ginny sighed, sitting up and glaring at her roommate that had opened her curtains.
"Thanks," she muttered, reaching a hand up to run through her bed messy hair. When Cara walked away Ginny got up, reaching for her trunk to get something to wear. She wasn't all that worried about missing breakfast, she was oddly exhausted this morning despite plenty of sleep.
Once she had gotten dressed, Ginny brushed out her hair and attempted to make her tired appearance decent before heading out of her dorm.
Her thoughts about the night before came back as she walked down to the Great Hall. Cara was nice, which made it harder for Ginny to dislike her, but not impossible. She had a feeling that Cara wasn't to fond of her either, since first year when she really had been obsessed with Harry.
Ginny sat, very ungracefully, down on the bench next to Ron, yawning loudly. "Morning," she mumbled, covering her mouth to hide the big yawn.
"How are you tired when you went to bed at nine?" Ron asked, although it took Ginny a minute to figure out what he had said through his mouth full of toast and her sleepiness.
Shrugging a lazy shoulder, Ginny picked up a piece of toast to nibble on as everyone continued to chatter around her. Today was probably just going to be a very off day, but at least it was Friday.
Ginny had pretty much zoned out as everyone talked about their weekend plans, poking at some eggs on her plate a little. At least until the chatter around her suddenly stopped and there was some other noise. She looked up to see everyone staring somewhere behind her.
When Ginny turned around her mouth dropped open, she quickly spotted Pansy Parkinson standing on the bench over at the Slytherin Table. It wasn't so much that she was standing on the bench as It was that she was singing and swaying her hips around in a supposed sexy manner.
Now that she was actually paying attention, Ginny started catching what the crazy girl was singing.
"…we don't need any money, I always get in for free. You can get in too if you get in with me.."
Ginny just stared, finally closing her mouth as the girl actually climbed onto the table, leaning down to run her hand across one of the Slytherin boy's chest.
"Lets go out tonight, I have to go out tonight. You wanna play? Lets run away!"
She didn't think she could watch anymore as Parkinson winked at a few boys, continuing her little song. Instead Ginny turned to look at the Staff Table, wondering why they weren't putting a stop to the obvious inappropriate behavior. A frown crossed her lips as she saw them all just as stunned as she was, no one making any moves, just sitting there gaping.
"Please take me, out tonight…"
Ginny glanced back at the Slytherin table just as the song ended, some guys even made cat calls. Her eyes locked on Parkinson, who quickly turned red once the song was over and climbed off the table.
It took several minutes for the silence to end before Snape was walking briskly towards his house table, pulling Parkinson out of the Great Hall.
"Well then," Ginny said softly, looking at the people around her. Everyone still seemed pretty stunned, but finally Hermione stood up.
"We still have class," she announced, giving everyone pointed looks before heading out with Ron and Harry.
Glancing at the clock Ginny realized she had only two minutes to get all the way out to Herbology, but maybe professor Sprout would understand her tardiness.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Draco stomped into the Potions classroom, flopping down in his seat and crossing his arms over his chest as he leaned back in his chair. A sneer formed on his lips as he watched Potter and his friends walk in, sitting across the room. Potions with the Gryffindors first thing in the morning wasn't what he would call fun. Not to mention he was mortified by the scene in the Great Hall.
Pansy had been pestering Draco to take her to Hogsmeade tomorrow, he had been doing a decent job at ignoring her until she suddenly broke out into song. Draco had only stared as she began dancing on the table, making a complete fool of herself. Not only did she make herself, and to an extent Draco, look ridiculous but she had probably lost them major house points. The worst part though was Pansy's annoying voice, it was even worse when she sang.
Snape came into the classroom five minutes late, a red-faced Pansy behind him. She took her seat silently and Draco pointedly ignored her, although several students made cat calls only to receive a glare and loss of house points from Snape.
Draco paid little attention as Snape began writing instructions on the board, turning around with his robe flaring out around dramatically. Suddenly the most unexpected thing happened making Draco sit up straight in his chair, his eyes widening.
"I know that your powers of retention are as wet as a warthog's backside,"
Snape was singing, deep and flat just as he talked, and he didn't seem to even notice that anything odd was going on.
"But thick as you are pay attention, my words are a matter of pride. Its clear from your vacant expressions the lights are not all on upstairs,"
Draco's eyes followed his potions professor and he walked around the room, leaning over students as he continued his 'teaching'. He couldn't help but think he was dreaming, people didn't randomly burst into song, this was ridiculous.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Hermione was thinking along the same lines, today's events were making absolutely no sense. She glanced over at Ron who's eyes looked like wide saucers, and Harry who was just look around confused.
Luckily Snape's little song was over much faster than the Great Hall incident and he quickly muttered a dismissal before rushing out of the classroom.
Then several students laughed, making comments about Snape going into the loony bin soon.
"This isn't normal," Hermione whispered to Ron and Harry as they walked out of the potions class room.
"Oh really? Because I thought Snape sang in class everyday," Ron said sarcastically, making Hermione narrow her eyes at him.
"I mean its something more than just Snape singing, something has to be going on. Didn't you notice how embarrassed Pansy and Snape had both been?" She said, raising an eyebrow at the two boys, all three of them stepping outside. The warm spring breeze made her smile a little.
"Well they did make fools out of themselves," Ron stated, sitting down on the somewhat damp grass, the other two joining him.
"Well then why would they do it?" Harry asked, looking between both Ron and Hermione.
"Exactly, I don't think they meant to do it," Hermione's voice was soft as she spoke, she bit lightly on her bottom lip as she ran through some things in her head. "They didn't really realize what had happened until afterwards."
Ron grinned now, "Good, maybe someone is playing a joke on the Slytherins!" He mused happily.
Harry nodded, looking around at the other students who had decided to head outside after the dismissal of potions class. "It has been all Slytherins."
Hermione looked at the boys, before agreeing. "Yeah, I suppose it could be some kind of joke. At least it doesn't seem to be effecting anyone else."
----------------------------------------------------------------
Ginny and Colin silently walked out of the green house for Herbology, both staying quiet as they walked back towards the school.
Finally as they neared the doors Colin spoke, "That was crazy," he mumbled, still surprised at himself more than anything else.
Ginny just silently nodded in agreement, Herbology class really had been crazy. It had started off normally, Professor Sprout began talking about pollination for the plants when suddenly it turned into a song. The song turned into one about, not just plants, but 'reproduction' in general.
She shook her head, that had to be one of the most awkward classes ever, well at least after the song ended, during the song everyone seemed to join in as if it was normal. The worst part was that Ginny had also joined in the group song, singing and dancing with the entire class.
Ginny was pulled out of her thoughts when Professor McGonagall gestured all the students coming in towards the Great Hall. She frowned a little in confusion, but followed Colin in and sat down. The Great Hall was buzzing with chatter, everyone sharing stories of teachers and students singing.
"Professor Snape?!" She heard Colin exclaim, staring at Ron and Harry with wide eyes. Both boys nodded and laughed, Hermione just sat there, as lost in thought as Ginny had been.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Draco quietly watched the other students share their odd stories from this morning. He personally wanted to forget about all the strange events, but hearing everyone's stories made it obvious that whatever was happening wasn't ending anytime soon.
His eyes moved up towards the head table as Dumbledore stood up, the rest of the students growing silent.
"I'm sure you have all noticed a few odd things happening this morning," Dumbledore began, staring out at the hall full of curious students. "The same thing has been happening all across the wizarding world in Europe."
With that last statement the Great Hall was in a buzz again, students all surprised with the new information. Draco just stared at Dumbledore, surely this had to be some sort of joke.
"I assure you that the Ministry is working on fixing this small problem, but until then I must ask all of you to carry on as normal as possible. Classes for the remainder of the day are canceled and we hope to have the problem fixed before Monday. Have a good weekend," With that Dumbledore excited the Great Hall, leaving hundreds of students with thousands of questions.

Author Notes: Alright here comes the fun part of disclaiming all the songs. First off Pansy Parkinson was singing a lovely number from Rent called Out Tonight. Snapes odd performance was actually Be Prepared from Lion King. The song Ginny refers to is Reproduction from Grease 2.
I chose not to put all the lyrics in because I thought it would be boring. Also I didn't use the whole song from Lion King because it didn't all fit so I'm just using the begining for the purpose of this story.Last but not least, reveiws are loved! Oh and I promise more songs will be coming up, this was just a tiny touch of the music to come.
If you didn't already catch it this will be a Ginny/Draco story, so if that bothers you I would suggest stopping now.
Last but not least, reveiws are loved!
