I thought I'd make a thread for the worst POSSIBLE theories and endings for my Potter's Pentagon trilogy. "Badfic" (short, horrible fanfiction) can be posted here, too.
Zabini is a bioterrorist who is poisoning his students. The "Inter-House Unity" project is a cover for his sinister plot-- getting the students he poisoned in his homeroom to pass the poison on to other students. While this poison is occasionally lethal (and Ted receives a particularly large dose because he ate so much at the beginning of the school year, so his side effects are the most adverse), its main side effect is hallucinations, and strange dreams like Jordan's been having.
Zabini's trying to figure out how to manipulate people's minds through this poison. He intends to have all of the students under his control and raise up an evil hypnotized army, along with Hadrian Bellowes, to defeat Ron Weasley.
Emma is the only student who's not poisoned. She finds out about the plot but can't tell anyone, because they're mind-controlled by Zabini, and she know he'd find out through his mind-controlled servants. Despite her incredibly strong attraction to Tyrone, she can't kiss him or else the poison will spread to her. But Tyrone, who doesn't know he's mind controlled, doesn't understand why Emma won't kiss him and despairs.
Meanwhile, Haley gets pregnant with Anatoly's baby, which somehow manages to become a werewolf in the womb through a gruesome side effect of Zabini's potion. The werewolf baby bites her uterus and turns her into a werewolf as well. She and Ted (as well as her new werewolf baby, Gaspard) are being manipulated by Zabini to be his private werewolf minions, but Ted's getting really sick from his huge dose of poison and dying. He dies in Ivy's arms. Ivy goes insane and breaks into the Ministry of Magic, where she is arrested and thrown in Azkaban.
Gaspard, who loves Ted like a brother, decides to attack and kill Zabini for revenge, but in order to protect her baby, Haley accidentally kills Zabini and his secret dies with him, while the students are still poisoned. Haley's sent to Azkaban, where she shares a cell with the deranged Ivy, who is convinced every time that Haley turns into a werewolf that she is, in fact, Ted, and Ivy keeps trying to bow-chicka-bow-wow with her.
Then, Jordan, in his hallucinatory state, believes he's a bird and jumps off the north tower and splatters grotesquely against the pavement.
Anatoly is shocked and horrified, and steals a time-turner to travel back in time and put everything right. But a young Zabini from twenty years in the past also has a time turner, and Anatoly and Zabini must battle through the decades. While Anatoly's mission survives and everything returns to normal, Anatoly is tragically slain by young Zabini in an unusual circumstance taking place in the early 1600's.
In this new universe Anatoly establishes, there never was anyone named Anatoly born, which means no Gaspard ever existed, but while everyone else lives happily ever after, Haley is plagued by existential yearnings that she can't explain for the rest of her life.
