-Hogwarts-

After leaving the kitchens where my family, friends, and I took a short snack break, with me introducing all the house elves to my parents and Cele, we continued our tour of the castle.

We had gone through the dungeons, the basement, the ground floor, and the entire first and second floor.

But of course, we only showed my family the main and most important places in the castle, knowing that there wasn't enough time to show them all the rooms and places of Hogwarts completely.

And currently we were on the third floor heading towards the Trophy Room, passing through another set of treacherous, and in my opinion, dangerous stairs.

"What wizard or witch had the brilliant idea of ​​making stairs that move by themselves?" my mom asked with a frown, "And why the hell do some steps disappear or are fake?!"

"For the first question, the brilliant witch who had this idea was Rowena Ravenclaw" I said pursing my lips, "And for the second question, I have no idea"

"Wait, isn't Rowena Ravenclaw one of the founders of Hogwarts and the founder of the house of Ravenclaw, which is known for being the house of the intelligent and wise?" my dad asked, surprised and somewhat perplexed.

"Yes" I replied, already knowing the reason for his surprise.

"But what kind of intelligent and wise person creates stairs that have a mind of their own!?" he exclaimed with a strange expression.

And I just shrugged my shoulders at your question, knowing that Rowena Ravenclaw had her moments of wisdom where she create something incredible and wonderful, and she also had her moments of stupidity, as is the case with the Hogwarts stairs and the entrance to the Ravenclaw common room.

"You know, I once heard a saying that wisdom and stupidity went hand in hand... maybe that's true" Lisa said, summing up my thoughts.

"If any other Ravenclaws hear you saying that, they might try to beat you with a book... A very big book" Terry said with a grimace, to which the girl just shrugged.

"Well, I think that is…" my dad started to say, but he suddenly fell silent.

And looking at him I saw him looking straight ahead with an astonished and somewhat frightened look.

And turning around I saw that in front of us, coming towards us was the ghost of the Bloody Baron.

"Is that a ghost!?" he asked, a squeak in his voice.

"Huh? Why the surprise?" my mom asked, "We always knew there were ghosts in the wizarding world."

"Knowing and seeing are two different things!" he said, and then I saw that his hands were shaking slightly.

"Wait..." I said, narrowing my eyes, "Are you afraid of ghosts?"

"No!" he responded too quickly, and my mom beside him snorted.

"Serious? I know you don't like ghosts in horror movies, but the ones in movies and the ones in real life are totally different" she rolled her eyes.

"And that's one of the reasons these ghosts are scarier… They're real!" he exclaimed.

"... Okay, you have a point" my mom said begrudgingly.

Nick, Penny, and my friends were watching this interaction with amused eyes, and Stephen looked at my father with sympathetic eyes, understanding his feelings towards the not-so-dead dead that roamed the castle's corridors.

And much to my dad's relief, the Bloody Baron didn't continue heading our way, as he turned and went through a wall.

"Phew" my dad who was frozen until 2 seconds ago sighed in relief.

And he then noticed the silence that was in the group, and looking ahead he saw all of us staring at him with different expressions on our faces, ranging from amusement to exasperation.

"What?" he asked, looking away embarrassed.

And looking at my mom, she and I shook our heads with wry smiles.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We continued the tour of the castle, showing my parents all the important points.

However, after a while my friends decided to leave to let me have a moment alone with my family, and so I continued guiding them around Hogwarts, showing them my favorite places in the castle.

Their time at the castle was coming to an end, and to end our tour I decided to take them to the last and most important room at Hogwarts for me.

And in front of a wall on the seventh floor I started pacing back and forth, with my parents looking at me curiously, knowing that there probably had to be a reason for me to be doing this.

And after walking back and forth for the third time, a large door began to form in the wall in front of us.

"And here is the most incredible place in Hogwarts... The Room of Requirement!" and saying this I opened the great doors of the magical and mysterious room.

Entering the room, my family could see an exact replica of the living room in our house, and my parents blinked in surprise, while Nick and Penny looked around the room with interest, having the blue glow of Magic Insight in their eyes.

"Why does this room look like our living room?" my dad asked, going over to the armchair and looking at it, seeing that it was exactly the same as the one at home, even having the same signs of wear on the armrests.

"Because that's what I wanted the room to look like" I replied, and that got me some confused looks.

"The Room of Requirement is a secret, semi-sentient magical room, and it can become any kind of room I want or need, and it only appears to a wizard or witch who needs it," I explained, and that made my parents look surprised and amazed at me and the room.

"So if you wanted a courtroom?" my mom asked.

"Then the room would turn into a courtroom" I nodded, "But it's not just limited to rooms, it could turn into anything, like a forest, the bottom of the sea, and I haven't tested this, but I think if I have enough information the room could even turn into something like the moon."

"Amazing," my dad murmured, his eyes shining, and I could feel the room vibrate slightly and almost imperceptibly in appreciation of his words.

"Yes, truly fascinating" Nick said, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.

'The founders were amazing and powerful wizards and witches, but I don't think they would be able to create a room like that...' he thought, looking at the magic in the room with interest.

And I didn't know what Nick was thinking, but like him, I also thought that the room being so incredible wasn't the founders' work.

They could have created and enchanted it initially, but I'm sure that the room being so magical and sentient was the fault of the magic itself that changed the room over the course of these thousand years.

"I think I can understand why this room is your favorite in the entire castle," Penny commented, before looking at me with a raised eyebrow, "And I have a feeling there's more to this room than you're telling us."

And hearing her curious tone I just smiled enigmatically at her, which made her snort in amusement.

'Cheeky grandson' she thought.

-In the late afternoon-

The afternoon was coming to an end, and it was getting close to dusk, and because of that I knew that my time with my parents was coming to an end, as they had to go back to home.

We then started heading towards Professor McGonagall's office, where Sirius and the Tonks would be waiting for us.

"It's good that Professor McGonagall gave us permission to use the fireplace in her office to return home" my dad said, but my mom didn't agree with that.

"I can't see anything good in using the floo" she said with a grimace.

"Yes, but the options were to use the floo or apparate... or the Knight Bus" my dad said with a sick look, and thinking about the purple monstrosity that was supposed to be a bus my mom was silent.

And with this short conversation we arrived at the Transfiguration teacher's office.

"Hey" Sirius said as soon as he saw us, smiling happily at us.

And when we stopped in front of him the dog animagus looked at me, and his smile turned into a smirk.

"That was quite a show you showed us in the enclosure" he said, "And I'm sure Malfoy almost pissed himself when the dragon bowed to you."

And you could hear the slightly cruel and spiteful tone in his voice along with a hint of amusement.

"I'm glad that my fight against a deadly and dangerous dragon cheered you up," I said dryly, but the sparkle in my eyes showed that I was amused.

'Unfortunately I was very focused on Hela at that moment.... I wish I had seen Lucius and the other supremacist purebloods' reaction' I thought, but I could already imagine their looks of shock and indignation.

End.
