Chapter 26: Third Floor Corridor
Crynn POV
"Hahahahahaha!" I laughed madly, staring up to the ceiling. I waited for 1 whole month to find that I can just time skip to the eventful evening! I must be mad now! But no worries, I calmed my laugh quite a few minutes after what happened. "**** you blue screen!" I yelled one more time upwards as a clear sign of fury towards the peaceful sky.
I collected myself and grabbed the briefcase and my sword, did I mention that I made the briefcase attachable to my waist. With a leather strap and some strong adhesive, I managed to construct a waist briefcase, a briefcase version of a waist bag. It's really useful as I no longer need to carry my briefcase with one of my hands.
I collected myself for one more moment and made my way out of the Room of Requirement. Bidding one last goodbye to the room that helped me on my stay in Hogwarts, I casually strolled up to the seventh floor base of the Grand Staircase. Truly just like its name, the Grand Staircase is as exquisite and grand as the name fully suggests. Thousands of stair steps placed everywhere in every corner of this castle's section.
Moving staircases only add to its mysticism and mystery, no one in the world has ever figured out the pattern in which the staircase moves along. I gasped seeing such a spectacle, stairs moving slowly from on spot to another, dancing paintings that adorn the walls, it's more amazing to see it in real life than ever imagining it in a book.
I looked around the stairs and looked at a window, it's quite late as it's dark outside and I haven't set my watch to the exact time during this exact moment. I looked downwards and counted the floors. I'm on the seventh floor so, sixth, fifth, fourth and third, it's all the way down there. I managed to see three tiny figures making their way up the stairs and into the supposed 'forbidden' third floor corridor.
I immediately knew who it was, the three naughty kids who managed to defeat a villain when they're only eleven years old. That's some high level plot armour, I didn't understand how Voldemort didn't just Crucio Harry or simply Avadaed him and Voldemort would've instantly won. And why do Harry and the other two not use the invisibility cloak to sneak to the third floor. Harry ain't that smart is he.
I knew that I just came in the right moment, I started to put one step on the Grand Staircase and quickly sprinted down, looking at a moving staircase that is approaching. I pushed myself onto the moving staircase which kept moving in a horizontal direction before stopping in a halt. I was about to get off and proceed into skipping to another staircase when it suddenly moved downwards like a descending elevator.
I tightly clutched the staircase handrail for support. I'm surprised that it's descending so fast, my foothold is currently not so stable as I could slip anytime and fall off to my death. How has the headmasters throughout the ages never once closed off the Grand Staircase, it's bloody dangerous! Good thing it stopped again for the second time. This is when I made my way down again from another moving staircase that is moving to the left of me.
I looked at my right and there's an entrance with a number five engraved on top of the stone arch entrance. Just two more floors to go, I jumped again towards another moving staircase and moved quickly downwards, I wasted 10 minutes on this staircase looking around to observe and finding a good time to jump. I can't afford to waste any more time.
I advanced further downwards down the countless stairs and reached the end of my current stairway. I hold the handrail tightly and looked around finding an opportunity to jump to another staircase. I looked to my right and the third floor corridor is within my reach, I just need a single stair piece to light my way downwards towards my destination.
I felt a rumble sounded near me, I looked to my right again and a staircase approached leading right to the third floor corridor, this must be my lucky day; "Fate is shining upon me!" I beamed and swiftly arrived in front of a stone arch entrance with a big 3 on top of it. Hehe, I made it.

Someplace, Somewhere
Three gorgeous ladies with a noble feel around them sat upon a small round table drinking tea happily chatting away. Words could be heard from around them, "Zeus gone mad!", "Odin got smited!" and "YHWH on another conquest!" It seems to be a... Godly Gossip??? Well anyone who knows these three ladies wouldn't be surprised at the thought.
"Achoo!" The three ladies suddenly sneezed loudly as if it has been forced up their throats and can't be stopped, their voluptuous figures bouncing up and down as they sneezed continuously for three seconds.
"Sis! What was that!" one of the ladies asked rather puzzled at the the sudden sneeze to her left. "Damn! Someone just spoke about us!" The other lady gasped out in a cough squeezing her throat lightly.
"It must be the Chinese! Only they can make others sneeze like this!" The last lady spoke out in a angry knowing tone. Only the Chinese Gods have the ability to make enemies sneeze uncontrollably while talking badly about them. The three ladies disappeared in a flash, heading towards a region in the far east.
The Chinese doesn't know and will never know how they got framed but they will certainly remember the day when one of their High Gods plead in forgiveness for doing something they never did. Well, the good thing is that they never got destroyed, bad for them, they got framed for offending a big powerhouse. That is also the day a new law got passed out, promptly written to never use the sneeze curse ever again.
(A.N : Can anyone guess who the three ladies are? Hint : Most famous for being in Greek Mythology)
