Summary: Think challenges are easy? Try this one on for size.

In three chapters or LESS, you must create a heart warming and angsty story that:

    Uses ALL of the following words and phrases:
  • "I hate you Harry"
  • "Flying purple Hippogryff"
  • "He knocked her up?"
  • "Ron, that's disgusting"
  • "I think we're going to need a bigger one"
  • "Perfect"
  • "Bat bogeys"
  • "RUN!"
  • "What's your name?"

The following things must also be mentioned or seen in the story: A broom, A ripped up hat, Some kind of wizarding child's piggy bank, A picture with some kind of sentimental value... to somebody

Bonus if there is humor injected in every chapter. Plot? You decide. Characters? Harry and Snape and Ron, and anybody else you see fit.

Summary: Malfoy does show up for the midnight duel in Book 1. Instead of merely "shooting sparks" at Harry, he casts dark spells that he learned from his father. Snape finds Harry and somehow sees scars from abuse at home (just because I'm addicted to Dursley angst:)

Other points
-What role does Ron play?
-How is Draco punished-and does Severus do it, or Dumbledore?
-What is done about the Dursley situation?
-What spells did Draco use (are their any strange side effects?)

Be Creative!

Summary: After Lily and James are killed at Godric's Hollow, Severus takes matters into his own hands, disregards Dumbledore's orders and takes Harry away to raise him. Remus argues that he, as Harry's godfather (chosen by James) should raise Harry, but the Ministry will never give custody to a werewolf. So he appeals to Severus to allow him to live with them and help raise his godson. Should take place pre-Hogwarts and maybe up till first-second year.
    Requirements:
  1. Severus should either be Harry's godfather (Lily's choice) or guardian or father, your choice.
  2. Remus convinces Severus to not be a spy any longer (too dangerous to raise Harry and if Severus dies, Harry will go to Dursleys) Remus could get a job at Hogwarts as well as Sev when Harry is older. Up to you where he is raised-school or home.
  3. BOTH Severus and Remus should take turns with discipline, don't make one the "good guy" and one the "bad guy" - also mild Corporal Punishment could be used or none.
  4. Harry should be bright and inquisitive and have at least one bout of accidental magic that scares his guardians senseless.
  5. Remus's were nature should at some point go haywire, requiring Severus to brew a new version of wolfsbane.
  6. Severus & Remus should eventually have a cordial relationship, friends, brothers, or otherwise and their first priority should be raising Harry to feel safe, NOT be a hero.
  7. One argument should take place when Harry is school-age between the two guardians and Dumbledore about Harry's fate via the prophecy.
May include Sirius if you'd like. Or whoever else you want. Other than that, have fun!

Summary: I was bored one day and was listening to Martine Mcbride's In My Daughter's eyes and thought that could be a really cool Snape is Harry's dad story. And that wasn't the only song that I've heard that could be a fic, so I thought, Songs become Stories! So here's the challenge: pick any song you want - though no slash! obviously. And use the plot or idea and make a story. But please tell us who sings/wrote the song as well as the songs name. Sorry I know my instructions stink! But hey its a challenge! Oh and one more thing, Harry can be a girl instead of boy if you want. Think you are up to the challenge? Good luck :)!

Summary: Neither Harry nor Severus have ever been to McDonalds. Knowing this, Dumbledore (always the manipulative old coot) arranges for Severus to pick Harry up one summer day and take him to McDonalds in Muggle London as a way for his two boys to get over their differences. What happens when they go?

Requirements:
  1. One of them must get a Big Mac (i'd love to see Sev try to tackle that one! lol.)
  2. Harry must slip and make a reference as to why he's never been to McDonalds.
  3. Extra kudos if Sev makes the same slip.

This could be a one-shot or the start of a long story. Wherever your muse leads you, follow it! Please PM me if you respond, I can't wait to see what you guys come up with!

Summary: This is AU, of course. What if Harry had red hair instead of dark messy hair? And/or was a girl? If Harry had resembled his mother, how would Snape have responded to Harry? Imagine Snape's reaction on seeing a version of Lily in miniature. How would this have affected the HP storyline?
