They joined Voldemort side after the sixth book, I think.

Will Hermione show up? I know that she comes back to finish her official education, it might even make sense for her to show up late if there is enough bureaucracy involved.

Also, I hope that you mention the fate of the previous teachers with Dolores in prison, her suffering gives me life.

Well, back to plot.

It was mentioned anywhere that Hermione and Miranda have a conversation about the Elder wand?

Regardless, maybe the plot is this:
a)The Three Hallows are interconnected and breaking the Elder wand wasn't the best idea. This is causing the invisibility cloak to behave oddly, including making Harry permanently invisible even without it. The stone is working randomly bringing back ghosts of the people that died in the hogwarts battles. The solution would lie in creating a third hallow (not necessarily a wand, but you can go with that).
b)Similar to the one above, but with the founders artifacts instead of the hallows. The room of requirement would normally restore them, but itself is "healing", as a result the deep magic in Hogwarts it is twisting and unravelling. So, trying its best to fix the problem the Room of Requirement/Hogwarts itself "recruits" Our Heroes.

Is this based on movie canon or book canon? The Elder Wand might not be destroyed after all. You could have someone Disarm Harry Potter from behind to prevent anyone else from doing it.

Room of Requirement! Yes!

Book canon. Room of Requirement is wrecked (I can't give a BELL the fucking ROOM OF REQUIREMENT, you guys) and wand is broken unless we really like some idea that requires it.

The notion of Hogwarts healing the Room of Requirement + the notion that you can't give a Bell the Room of Requirement combine to make me think that maybe the Room of Requirement heals "scarred" in some way, and starts behaving erratically - offering doors unasked to random or semirandom room variants it's offered in the past? Appearing in different parts of the castle? Being a door from one part of the castle to another instead of a door into a room? All of the above? Being a door from Hogwarts to Elsewhere, where Elsewhere may or may not bear some obscure relation to the 'requirements' of passersby? That last one might come in handy if you happen to think of a plot that requires abrupt departure from Hogwarts - Our Heroes are innocently traipsing along, open the wrong door, and get Narnia'd to who knows where.

This might be just a headcanon, but I was under the impression that the room can only "rearrange" stuff, not outright create it... and maybe the cursed fire burned everything, making the place less useful.

Still, I like the idea of the room of requirement being broken and causing chaos.

The RoR could open to milliways and let in hogwarts all kinds of creatures.

So, not truly a plot thingie, but I saw a muggleborn headcanon about a sort of underground market between muggleborns and purebloods, where the muggleborns trade minor muggle trinkets for minor magical trinkets.

Of course, my first thought was someone shady looking student aproaching the girls and whispering "So, I heard..." *shifty eyes* "that you guys sell rubber duckies"

----

Also, a off-topic ish prediction, but I am wondering if that journalist is going to mind read Miranda and discover her Natural Occulumency that way.

I'm glad to see the Statute of Secrecy get mentioned. It's stupidly wrong on the level of the Prime Directive, if the reasoning behind the Prime Directive had been "they might ask us to cure cancer."

It is probably within Miranda's ability to remove it herself in the near future, if she finds out that (and how) Patronuses can send messages. She just has to send one to every live news anchor she can think of, followed by every newspaper editor. They can't stop the signal. And if it's not common knowledge that her Patronus is a human she might even get away with it.
