Chapter 23: The Lesson Learned

"So what'd you gather from seeing those four?" Salazar asked as the screen rolled up and he and Rowena stood before the group.

"Obviously I've been misinterpreting something if the children of Slytherin and Gryffindor look past their imperfections and abilities to get along as well as it seems they do," Horace sighed, "But I still intensely dislike her!" he thrusts a fat finger at Minerva.

"Duly noted. I still hate Godric even though he's saved my life," Salazar stated, "No harm in you hating someone for similar reasons."

"Minerva never saved my life!" Horace snapped.

"Oh please we saw the final battle you lot fought. Minerva could have taken that Volde what's his name by herself," Rowena stated, "she's from my stock."

"You were watching?" Harry asked.

"OH sure. We watch everything. Hogwarts is just a wonderful reality show to watch," Rowena laughed.

"I have to say the relationship of Snape and Potter was fascinating for me," Salazar nodded.

"I always love the Dumbledore/ McGonagall relation ship," a deep Highland voice chuckled.

From behind Salazar materialized a tall squared shoulder strapping man with muddy red hair and hazel eyes. He was in rich red and gold robes.

On his shoulder was a girl of fourteen in a blue empire waist dress with blue eyes, a button nose, and black curls pinned in a Greek inspired hairdo.

"Albus and his little student causing rumors to fly anytime they laugh at a secret joke," the man chuckled, "Oh it's good times."

"Godric Gryffindor?" Harry blinked.

"And you would be Artemis," Lorna added standing, "You're quite a cute little thing. Look just like Professor Ravenclaw here."

"Yes, yes I do and yes I am," the girl nodded from her place on her father's shoulder.

"What are you doing with her on your shoulder you have a bad back," Rowena frowned coming to her lover and child.

"One we're all dead. And two Artemis has never weighed more than 80 pounds," Godric stated.

"Plus he likes to hurt himself so you can baby him later," Salazar laughed in his snake like voice.

"Oh and you don't like being babied?" a light Wales tone of voice laughed.

From beside Clara and Albus a brilliant multicolored light swirled around and a portly woman with blonde curls and chocolate eyes in a light pink and yellow gown. Holding her hands were Esmeralda and Isabella.

To Isabella's other side was a girl of fourteen in a pink gown with her blonde curls pinned partly back and black eyes. She held Landon's hand.

By Landon was a boy with hazel eyes and short blonde hair with a sharp face and a black tunic; also fourteen.

On Esmeralda's other side was a boy with messy crimson hair and sharp blue eyes. He was fourteen and in a gold tunic holding Brandon's hand.

"Oh good we have everyone here now!" Clara exclaimed picking Brandon up.

"HI mummy! We's likes ghosties," Landon stated running to his mother's open arms, "They be nice."

"I'm glad they were nice to you sweetie," Jessica smiled kissing her son's cheek.

"I hope they weren't any trouble," AJ stated as the two girls came running to him.

"They were precious absolutely precious," Helga stated, "Some of the politest toddlers I've ever known."

"That's Jessica's doing," Marshall supplied.

"As far as we're concerned you lot are tops," Godric stated, "Even old Sally says so."

"I told you not to call me that!" Salazar snapped slapping Godric upside the head.

"Ouch hey can't you take a joke?" Godric laughed.

"OH Uncle Sal is great fun…but it's smart fun papa," Artemis giggled still on his shoulder.

"Oh forgive me then. I'm just not intellectual," Godric stated.

"That's for sure," Helga and Salazar said at the same time causing the four ghost children as well as Jessica's children to laugh.

"Oh so you admit you're an idiot?" Lorna asked.

"Certainly. Courage has nothing to do with brains my dear. If it did Gryffindors would always be in the Hospital Wing," Godric laughed.

"I know that's right," AJ laughed.

"Well now that we're all reunited…what have you learned Mr. Weasley is it?" Salazar asked.

"I'd like to say that this whole experience has been just one big horrible dream I'd rather forget. However…if all these insane people get along I guess I can give other Slytherins another chance and not be so annoyed at my prat brothers," Ron stated standing.

"Yay! Yay he learned! You can teach them tricks Uncle Sal!" Artemis exclaimed.

"Now we do our victory dance," Hermes stated as he, Aphrodite, and Apollo pulled Salazar to the sighed and did a country dance.

The other three founders laughed watching them as Artemis looked at the group.

"I'm glad you learned lessons and I hope you apply them. Thank you for playing with us. You can go home now; outside of this room it is still the 15th of July and is 2pm," Artemis smiled as the main door swung open.

Horace practically barreled out of the room waddling as fast as he could.

"It's been a pleasure but I have things to do at home. Good Bye all until we nest meet," Clara smiled to everyone as she sat Brandon on the ground and left; Albus with her.

"We better go to dear. I still have some things to do here and then we can go home," Minerva stated.

"Farewell," Marshall nodded kissing his daughter's cheek as they left.

"We'll see you for supper Jess then no excuses," Lorna stated as she herded her son and husband out.

"It's been swell Gryffindors. I'll see you lot at the reunion when mum and Minerva get it together," AJ saluted as he led his toddlers out.

"Thanks I guess I should say. Come on Mione let's go," Ron stated.

Hermione smiled and nodded to everyone.

"Thanks it's been very interesting," Harry replied as he and Ginny left.

This left Jessica with the eight ghosts.

"It's sad you four couldn't have lived longer. You would have been excellent additions to the staff," Jessica smiled at the two sets of twins.

"Thank you," the four stated.

"I think they really learned something in your experiment and a good test will be the reunion when we get it together. Thanks for everything," Jessica bowed respectfully.

"The world could use more people like you little McGonagall. Blessings with you and your children," Salazar stated.

"Blessings," the children and founders echoed.

Jessica smiled and bowed again before leaving the room and shutting the door softly.

"I liked that game. What should we play now?" Aphrodite asked.

"Let us fly," Godric stated pulling Artemis off his shoulder and spinning her around. Salazar picked up Aphrodite and spun her around as both girls giggled.

The boys and their mothers watched laughing as well at the men.

They may all be dead but that didn't mean they didn't still love and make an impact on their beloved castle.

THE END
