The Wizard & The Wanted Girl

Part 19

Why did the French Ministry Of Magic send Gellert Grindelwald a letter? Did they know he took the baby back? Was the baby a trap to begin with?

Gellert's mind thought a million different things at once. He read the letter again. It says that he needs to go to the Lestrange Mausoleum. The last time Grindelwald had been to the Lestrange Mausoleum was when he tried to defeat Newt Scamander, Popentina Goldstein, Queenie Goldstein and the rest of the Muggle loving wizards in France. He didn't want to go back there but he didn't really have a choice. He quickly checked to make sure Sarah was still asleep and scribbled down a note explaining where he went. He then apparated away.

When he arrived at the Lestrange Mausoleum, it was was exactly how he left it last time he was here. It was dark and old. Gellert was surprised that the building  hadn't collapsed yet. He was the only on here. No one from the Ministry had arrived. He kept his wand in his hand though, just in case this was a trick; The last thing he wanted was to be killed or attacked when he didn't expect it.

After a while of Gellert waiting for The Ministry, a few of them appeared along the the edge of the building, behind the seating area. Gellert pretended not to notice them.

"Hello." A female voice said walking down the steps towards the centre where Gellert was. "Mr Grindelwald, why do you think we wanted you to meet us here in the Lestrange Mausoleum?"

"Because Muggle lovers like you are obsessed with me." Gellert said sarcastically and smirked.

"No, that is not why, Mr Grindelwald." Said a familiar looking wizard named Theseus Scamander  "We wanted you to come here because we have a proposal for you..."

"Sorry but I'm already engaged to my girlfriend so I don't need a proposal from you, Sir" Gellert interupted.

"...and if you accept it then you'll be a free man."

"I'm sure that is not verifiable. Why would anyone from the Ministry want me to be a free man?"

"Because we would like some of your help." Said the women

"Really, Mrs Seraphina Picquery? I honestly doubt you'd ever want to work along side someone such as me, My greatness would over power all of you." Gellert smirked again.

"If you say no to our proposal then we have no choice but to kill you." Said Theseus walking even closer to Grindelwald.

"What is your proposal then, Mr Scamander?"

"We would like to offer you a job at the Ministry Of Magic, paid of course." He replied.

"Doing what?"

"Helping us track down the women that murdered Albus Dumbledore...We think you would be familiar with murdering since you murdered my fiancée."

"So you think I'd just tell you who I think murdered him?"

"Oh no, of course not. But we expect that we could persuade you to tell us."

Seraphina Picquery flicked her wand and restrained Gellert with an invisible rope to the floor.

Gellert howled in pain as if the invisible rope was burning him.

"YOU WILL TELL US, MR GRINDELWALD! DON'T WORRY ABOUT GETTING YOUR FIANCEE INTO TROUBLE THOUGH, WE WON'T TELL HER YOU TOLD US IT WAS HER."

"What makes you think it was her?" Gellert was still struggling.

"Cause it's oblivious that you needed a girl to help you, you tried to get my sister Queenie, but you killed her... so you found a new young girl to help you instead." Said Tina Goldstein who appeared behind Gellert.

"I love Sarah, why would I have allowed her to murder someone?"

"Because you couldn't kill him so you knew she would have to..." Said Tina

"And you knew she would do as you told her to because she loves you more than anything." Added Theseus. "and in return you killed Richard, her surrogate son right in front of her even when she begged you not to."

"You never loved her, Grindelwald. You only liked to use her for your own gain."

"NO! I LOVE SARAH. I HATE THAT I DID THE THINGS I DID TO HER BUT SHE KNEW THAT I DIDN'T HAVE A CHOICE."

"If you really cared for her, you would take her back to her mother, father and grandmother and leave her." Said Seraphina.

Gellert laid there in silence.

"If you knew that Sarah killed Dumbledore then why bring me here?"

"Cause we want you to admit it and you have."

"So?" Asked Gellert almost close to death.

"We will kill her..."

"No! You can't...she might be pregnant with my child... you can't kill her."

Tina, Seraphina and Theseus all exchanged a glance. Then the 3 of them apparated away and left Gellert laying there on the floor tied up. The burning stopped but he was still restrained. He hoped that the Ministry hadn't killed Sarah yet. He wished he never did what the letter said. he wished he was still cuddling Sarah on the sofa in her house in Greece. Why did he try to defend himself and make it worse? Gellert accepted that this was all his fault. Sarah's death was his fault, Richards death was his fault, Queenie Goldsteins death was all his fault...everything wrong he had ever done was his fault. He closed his eyes and wished he was back at school in Durmstrang before he got expelled. He wished he could go back in time and erase all the wrong things he had done since then. He wished he never discovered dark magic. He wished he never got thrown out of school. He wished he never loved Albus. He wished he was never born...
