There seemed to be very different reactions in the room after hearing Luna's words, after all, wizards and witches aren't used to hearing about physics and equations, that's something made more for those that have perfect grades and manage to land on an apprenticeship at the department of mysteries at the ministry.

Luna was of course one of those lucky ones, not even Hermione managed to get into it even though she had better grades than Luna, it seems like they clearly look for a profile considering that they have some crazy ideas.

- I know this might sound stupid Luna, but… Do you think there might be a way to travel back in time to try to catch up with all of you? Maybe with time turners? – Harry was a little uncomfortable about this situation.

It wasn't fair for them to be more mature and to be older than him, he felt left behind and he didn't know how to feel about that.

- Sadly, there are no more time turners, all of them were an inheritance from the ancient wizard civilization and they were the only ones able to decipher how to control time, and sadly for us… All time turners have been destroyed, I'm sorry Harry – Luna placed a hand on his knee with clear disappointment – There might be some advances in the future as we're trying different stuff, like I told you, the control of time is a very important subject at the department of mysteries… By the way, Harry you can come to visit us whenever you want, you'd be a very interesting subject for us to study! – Luna said with a very obsessive look.

And Harry couldn't help but feel nervous to have Luna stare at him like that.

- Thank you so much Luna… I'll consider your proposal – He said with a fake smile on his face – So… Am I free to go roam freely now? – Harry asked calmly, he was getting bored, he wanted to talk with Ginny but she was being guarded by James.

- No, we're waiting for the guy from Gringotts who was going to verify your identity… But he's taking too long! – Complained Fleur as she glared at Teddy.

- Ah that's right sorry, sorry… The story seemed so interesting that I forgot what I came for – Teddy said completely embarrassed and some people in the room facepalmed while others laughed, this was typical coming from him.

- So… You work at Gringotts uh? Are you more successful than my son? – Asked Harry trying to tease James who was still angry at him for some reason.

- Ha, I wish, not with that pay! – Teddy laughed after hearing his godfather's question.

- Come on Harry, this is not a parental race… Or else you'd lose considering you'd never been in your son's life! – Nymphadora mocked him, trying to get him back for calling her Nymphadora before.

- Hey, I didn't ask to be teleported to another dimension, I'd probably be the best father if it wasn't for that! – Harry showed Nymphadora his tongue and she giggled – By the way… Someone is missing… Someone so important – Harry said as he looked around the room.

He analyzed the faces of everyone trying to look for who was that person missing and when he saw one of Fleur's daughters who has red hair, suddenly his eyes widened.

- Ron! – He said and the room suddenly became somber – Guys, where's Ron? I want to see him! – Harry said cheerfully, he wanted to tell his best friend about what happened.

Everyone remained in silence for a few moments, they didn't know how to approach this.

- No way, don't tell me that… He's dead! – Harry said as he collapsed to the ground.

- He's not dead… Though sometimes I wish he were – Hermione said with a serious expression, and some people in the room agreed with her even the ones who were related to him.

- Wait, why? Didn't you two got married? I mean this girl looks like a combination of the two of you but prettier – Harry was confused as he pointed at an auburn-haired woman who'd just graduated.

- Thanks for the compliment, Mr. Potter… My name's Rose, Rose Weasley and you're right… They're both my parents but, they divorced a long time ago – Rose explained to the older man.

- I see but please call me Harry, Mr. makes me feel old and as you can see, we're almost the same age technically – Harry said with a weak smile on his face and she blushed and nodded, to have a celebrity like him talking to her like that was something unbelievable for the young woman.

- It's a very long story Harry, but I'll tell you later about that, right now you should take the test and get over it – Hermione told him – Trust me, you don't want Ron here, you'd be in danger – She added and Harry felt confused about it.

Ron being dangerous was really a novelty and a character development if Harry could say, not a good one but a development nevertheless.

- Come on Mr. Potter, let's get over with this – Teddy said as he moved Harry to another room.

It was the potions room, and it surely brought some memories about Snape, who in his mind was still alive a few hours ago, but in reality, more than twenty years have passed already and it seems like his influence in this classroom has been obliterated, the room looks more vividly and more positive, quite the opposite when that man was alive.

- Please take a sit, Harry… I'm going to put you through some questions that you submitted a long time ago to prove that you are you and to avoid being impersonated – Teddy said with a calm expression as he sat at the teacher's desk Harry took a chair and sat in front of him.

And suddenly, Teddy's cheerful expression changed for a more serious one, and Harry was taken by surprise by this sudden change, and it didn't take too long for Teddy to start questioning Harry with a strict face.

But even if the man tried to intimidate him, he has faced worse things, so, answering that set of questions was easy, and considering the man didn't kick him out of the room nor called the Aurors, it seems like he was good.

- Okay now, Mr. Potter, it's time for the physical scan, please get on your feet and stand straight – Teddy told him and Harry did as he was asked.

Teddy took a small metal ball and with a flick of his wand the thing suddenly got wings but it didn't maintain itself in the same position, the thing started to fly around Harry's body and it was making the savior of the wizarding world feel nervous, the thing was fast and in a moment it managed to get under Harry's clothes causing him a little bit of discomfort.

But the tickling was making him laugh, this test didn't take more than a few minutes and when the thing was finally done, Teddy took a blank piece of paper, and the thing send a little light toward the paper before it stopped functioning, the ray worked like a pen that wrote at a very fast speed the physical information of the supposed Harry Potter.

Teddy read the paper but didn't say anything, Harry was happy he hasn't been kicked out, it seems that regardless of the way his godson acts, it seems like he's doing a good job.

- Okay… And now, it's time for the last test – Teddy said as he took a bottle with a red liquid inside of it, a feather, and two pieces of white paper that looked to be the same.

- What should I do? – Asked Harry confused about this.

- I want you to write your secret signature, with this liquid that is—Teddy was stopped by Harry.

- The blood I left as my genetic mark – Harry completed and Teddy nodded.

- You're right… I'm going to put these two blank pieces of paper and you're going to write on the correct one… If you're the person that it is said to be then, the paper is going to guide you – The Gringotts employee said with a calm expression and Harry nodded.

Harry analyzed the two pieces of paper and ordered them mentally to give him the one in which he needed to write, and a few seconds later, the piece of paper with his original signature appeared so, he copied the signature on the other paper using his own blood.

Teddy couldn't see anything as this was something confidential and only the right owner could see it, a great system to avoid using a Polyjuice potion and someone else's blood to write on the paper.

- Done – Harry said not impressed with this test but suddenly the two pieces of paper started to light up with a golden light and then, they disintegrated but not for too long because the particles suddenly turned into an object.

It was a ring that was floating on Harry's face level, it didn't take too long for the green-eyed man to take it, and when he placed it in one finger, the thing started to shine and Teddy seemed satisfied.

- Come on let's go tell them the news… Godfather – Teddy started to get on his feet.

He was smirking even though this was a very weird situation considering Harry was younger than himself, and yet, he was his godfather, that was a reality, they'd have to talk about the titles in the future, but what mattered right now was to tell everyone the news.

A few moments later in the school's infirmary…

- Everyone… I'll be blunt, he's the real one, there's no doubt about this… He is Harry James Potter – Teddy announced and the reactions varied so much.

The eyes of those who knew Harry started to fill with tears, while the younger ones were shocked and happy at the same time for their relatives who have known the legendary wizard because they'd see the pain and anguish that the supposed death of Harry Potter brought to them.

- So… It was really you – Hermione asked as she was held by her daughter.

- Yes… I'm back – He said with a grin on his face.

And all the adults approached him to hug him tightly as if they were afraid to lose him once again or for this be worse, a dream that could turn into a nightmare if this wasn't real, but as they held him and he held them back they realized that this was the real deal, they remembered all those days, the memories, his touch, his warmth and the way his magic made them feel… It was all there, and now, no one had doubts anymore that this wasn't the real Harry Potter.

But in the end, Harry had to talk with the two most important people in the room for him: Ginny and his son, the rest of the occupants decided to leave the family some time alone, after all, this was hard to process.

- I'll leave you two to talk… I need to look up for Sophie anyway – James said using that as an excuse to not talk to his father.

- James wait—Harry tried to stop him but he couldn't do much so he just sighed – I know he's shocked but could you at least tell him something Ginny, I— Ginny stopped him with a serious expression as he was trying to get some support from his girlfriend from the past, it was true that she might not feel attraction to him in this state which was the part that he hated the most about this situation, but he was hoping that at least she should understand his position.

And then all those thoughts disappeared the moment Ginny slammed her lips against his own, taking the younger man by surprise, the tables seem to have turned now considering he was a year older than her when they started dating, but the experience was different, her body and personality changed, but his love for her was still the same, or at least that's what he hoped was making him kiss her back.
