8 Ghosts

*Anos's POV*

It must've been a couple of months since I came at Hogwarts. My eyes didn't want to open for some reason but today I finally opened them.

There was a sense of relief as I saw the world around me but my eyes suddenly started to hurt so I closed them again.

'What the fuck'

For some reason, I could still see. I could still see the fucking room even with my eyes closed. Everything in my vision was their colors and all. I was trying to see around with my eyes closed when I saw a ghost around. It was a small one and it was trying to come near me and pinch me.

*Smack*

I didn't know what else to do so I did what I could and smacked the ghost with my baby hands.

*Clank*

There was a sound of a cauldron falling.

"You... You hurt Peeves!!" The ghost shouted and ran off.

"You did hurt him didn't you little one." Snape's voice sounded from behind me. He seemed to have a smirk on his lips.

"Gaga" I made baby sounds. I could see him perfectly with my eyes closed.

"That peeves was probably here to mess up my potions and cauldrons. What I'm more interested in is how did you slap a ghost." Snape said as he took me in his arms and lifted me up.

I simply tilted my head to the right and started touching his mouth with my hands.

"Ow, ow don't poke my eyes!" Snape shouted and took off with me.

*15 minutes later*

I was being carried by Snape to the medical ward and seeing him going towards it the other professors decided to follow him too. There were no students around probably because the Christmas Holidays had been extended by Dumbledore due to the defeat of the Dark Lord.

"What is it, Severus?" Professor Flitwick asked curiously peering over to get a better look at me.

"Nothing," Snape said as he continued towards the medical ward.

After some time we finally arrived and entered the Medical ward. It was empty as there were no students in the castle at the time.

"Here for another routine check of Anos, Severus?" The woman who I assumed is Madam Pumphrey judging by her dress asked. She didn't seem to mind the crowd of Professors behind Snape.

'Woah I got a cool name.' I thought while looking around.

"He slapped Peeves," Severus said in his monotone voice.

"What? Severus, I'm telling you young man don't play jokes on me." Madam Pumphrey began lecturing Snape about being a responsible parent and what his 'lies' could teach to a youngling like me.

" Here test it yourself. " Snape said and handed me to her.

Dumbledore was called into the room with some of the house ghosts. Now that I could finally look at him Dumbledore did look a lot like the movies. With a neat and long beard like a sage and glasses that seemed to disappear if you didn't focus enough.

His arrival was proceeded with everyone urging Nearly Headless Nick and the Bloody Baron to come closer to me so I could try slapping them.

"I tell you boy I did not expect such silky business from you.." The bloody Baron started.

*Smack*

Instant KO. The Bloody Baron was shocked and Nearly Headless Nick burst out laughing.

*Smack*

And now I had seen why you don't slap a nearly headless ghost with a nearly detachable head. The image was burned into my mind even though I tried to close my eyes.

'My eyes, my eyes.' I thought while moving away from the ghost.

Madam Pumphrey who seemed to be the only one capable enough of looking at me saw me recoil after the slap and whispered something in Dumbledore's ear.

*15 minutes later*

This school is the worst place for a student's safety. It seemed that everyone had decided to check how I could still see with my eyes closed so they were trying to find that out. With Fucking hot metal Rods.

Half the professors held metal rods with hot ends toward me and half of them held bunnies towards me in the weirdest magic trick possible.

I didn't even fucking pretend and took the bunny from Dumbledore's hands and held onto it as if my life depended on the little piece of fluff. My mouth hurt for some reason but I still held onto the little bunny.

"It could've been just luck. Maybe we should increase the number of rods." Professor McGonagall suggested.

'I hate that woman.' I thought as I held the bunny and crawled towards Snape in hope that he'll help me.

Everyone seemed to be surprised that I could crawl but it was more like I was worming my way towards Snape.

"Congrats Severus!!!" The Professors shouted and there was an instantaneous moment of Hot metal Rods.

'Mind the rods Dammit. ' I made baby sounds and tried to crawl out of this fucking war trench holding the bunny in my arms. Please take me away from here Dammit.

Snape seemed proud of me at least that's what his smirk told me. He picked me up and I held onto the bunny while going to sleep. Hoping to get away from the metal Rods.

*Severus's POV*

After getting away from the crowd of Professors I began moving back towards the Dungeons. As I looked down I saw blood.

I checked my robes for any wounds thinking about which professor was dumb enough to hold a sharp rod but found that I didn't have any wounds. Instead, it was Anos who seemed to be dripping blood from his mouth.
