AN: Thanks for the reviews. No, the room that they are going to is not the RoR. I thought that it would be more important if Harry slapped Sirius.

Chapter 8: More Secret Rooms

Harry quickly walked to the third floor when Ron, Mia and Dane snorted. The teachers, the Weasleys, the people from Sunnydale and Remus and Sirius looked at them as if they were going insane. Sirius started to growl when Dane stage-whispered, "Like father, like son!"

Everyone else quickly turned to watch as Harry walked ahead with his robes billowing behind him, a tendency that his father was famous for. The rest of them snickered while Severus looked surprised and even proud. They nearly ran into Harry when he stopped walking. Harry smirked at his father's raised eyebrow which had been his reaction to the closed door that they were now standing in front of.

The rest of their group was standing around wondering what he wanted to show them. Ron, Mia and Dane's expressions changed as they realized what the room consisted of. They started to smile and the staff all looked at them in exasperation. Harry cleared his throat to get their attention and when they did, the door was open. He let them go in first, before closing the door behind him, as he was the last one in.

The others looked around the room and they noted that there were curtains in front of four sets of shelves. They also noted that the curtains were the same colours as the house colours. Harry smirked at their confused expressions, "I had found this room once before, in fifth year, when I needed a place to get away from Peeves. So, I suppose that he is a useful help sometimes, though not very often."

Everyone had to stifle a laugh and Buffy asked, "Why are the curtains the colours of the houses?"

Harry smiled, "I'd like all of the House Heads to stand in front of the curtain that has their colour." When they did that, he continued, "You can pull back the curtains now."

They did as he said, but they were confused. They were each wondering what the big deal about books was, so McGonagall voiced the question. Harry smirked, "You'll find the answer to that when you each pick up a book from the shelves and look at the cover. Sprout was the first to pick a book up and was surprised to see the name Helga Hufflepuff written on it. Flitwick, McGonagall and Severus followed after and found the names Rowena Ravenclaw, Godric Gryffindor and Salazar Slytherin written on the covers of the books that they had picked up.

They all turned to Harry demanding answers. Ron said, "All of the books on those four shelves had been written by the founders. The books over here had been written by two or more of the founders, rather than just one," he said as he pointed to shelves that were in the middle of the room. Harry ushered them over to another doorway and when they looked in it, they saw the colours that belonged to Merlin.

Hermione said, "If you ever feel like talking to the founders, you can just come here and come to this portrait."

Everyone turned to the portrait that she was gesturing to and they gasped at the sight that they found. The figures in the portrait were revealed to be Rowena, Godric, Helga, Salazar and Merlin. The five of them looked up from where they were arguing playfully and waved at the group that had gathered around watching them. Salazar said something, but even though they couldn't make it out, Rowena and Helga smacked him upside the head to which Godric started to laugh at his friends' predicament.

Merlin shook his head at the four of them and said, "Hello, everyone. Harry, I am pleased that you finally decided to bring the staff and your family by for a visit, finally."

Harry looked annoyed, "I had already told the five of you that I would only bring them by once they found out the entire truth and that would not happen until Voldemort was gone for good."

The others shook their heads at him. Rowena asked, "Did it ever occur to you that it would have been easier to win the war if you had told them the truth?"

Harry scowled, "Yes, actually that thought did pass through my mind several times since the end of my fourth year."

His father turned to him and was about to ask why he didn't say anything, but Harry shook his head, "I didn't tell any of you the truth because I knew how dangerous it would be if Voldemort got hold of that type of information."

Buffy interrupted, "Where did you get the Gringotts keys from?"

Harry let out a laugh, "Actually, that didn't happen until I found out that I was descended from the founders and Merlin. I had found a book that showed the family lines and when I was looking at it, the keys popped up. I only got the ones for me, but later when I explained how many descendants were still alive, the other keys came out according to who was descended from which person."

The others shook their heads in amusement and smiled. Harry looked over at Sirius who looked as if he was about to start growling at Severus because of how close he sat next to Harry, even though Buffy, Willow and Dawn were also sitting next to them. Harry rolled his eyes at his godfather and the five of them went back to talking quietly.

Molly noticed the time and decided that it was time for them to go home and/or to their dorm rooms and get some sleep. The younger group from Sunnydale chose to stay in the Gryffindor tower, while Giles stayed in one of the guest rooms. They left the room and Harry locked the door behind him so that none of the students could get in.

The next morning came sooner than any of them would have liked. They got up before any of the other students and met in the Room of Requirement. When they got there Willow asked, "Why is this room called the Room of Requirement? What does it do?"

"Ah, the ROR is a wonderful room to be in. The reason that it is called the Room of Requirement is because if you need and/or want something, than you have to walk past the area three times while thinking what you would want or need and a door would appear. When you open the door, whatever you were thinking of is in the room. I've heard people of having this made into a potions lab, bathroom, closet and filled with things for DADA, candy, cleaning supplies and anything else that you could ever imagine wanting," Hermione answered.

Dawn asked, "So that means that we could find books on the monks and the Key and what else the Key can do, other than opening hell dimensions?"

Ron nodded in response. "Yeah, you can find books on every subject in here as long as you know what you are looking for."

Giles looked interested, "Does that include Watcher's Diaries?"

Dane laughed, "It includes anything that was destroyed when the Council Headquarters were destroyed , that you were not able to take."

The others tried not to laugh as Giles looked indignant and spluttered while trying to find a reasonable answer to her remark. She shook her head in amusement and they settled down after she reassured Giles that she was grateful that he had taken information on the First from the Council, even if it didn't really have all of the information that they truly needed at that point.

AN: When you review, can you suggest some ideas that you would like to have in this story? I plan on having a graduating scene, but should the Fearsome Four reveal any of their secrets from their previous years that they have not already?
