Teddy was sitting on the stairs. He would be leaving for Hogwarts in a few minutes. He was nervous thought it was his third year this year. Harry sat down next to him.
"I have something to give you before we head out." Harry patted Teddy's knee and held out a folded piece of ancient parchment.
"What is this?" Teddy asked.
"This is something that was gifted to me in my third year when I needed it and I find that your third year is a good year for it to be gifted to you." Harry replied.
"That still doesn't explain what it is." Teddy pointed out.
"Your right." Harry accepted. "This is a map, a map of Hogwarts."
"A map is col yeah but why is it so important?"
"You'll see." Harry took out his wand and tapped the parchment. "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good."
"Messers Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs are proud to present the Marauder's Map." Teddy read to himself. "Who gave this to you?"
"Uncle George and his twin Fred when he was still alive. I was trying to get to Hogsmede because unlike who has a fabulous godfather I did not get my slip signed. So on a Hogsmede trip day right before Christmas break when I was walking back to the common room Fred and George pulled me into a deserted corridor. The of course riled me up before telling me what the map what. They had gotten it from Filch's office their first year. They had found a drawer marked dark and dangerous and you know George so they just had to looking into it and they found this."
"That does sound a lot like Uncle George." Teddy smiled.
"You know what else is special about the map?"
"What?"
"I knew all four of the makers."
"Really?" Teddy asked excitedly. "Who are they?"
"A werewolf, a rat, a dog, and a stag. All friends in the same year together now all unfortunately dead. My father the stag, a man named Peter, the rat, my godfather, the dog, and finally the werewolf, your father."
"My father was one of the creators of the map?"
"Yeah. He was the one I knew the longest out of the four of them. He was a good man. One more thing before I give this to you for good."
"What?" Teddy asked.
"When James is old enough and in Hogwarts give him the map."
"Okay."
