The Grindelwalds 1

Part 6

After hours of talking, a old lady walked down the train and tapped on each carriage door. When she tapped on each door she opened it and spoke. When she spoke to Benji and the Quidditch boys she said, "Hopkins, Robinson and Carter, get changed and as well boy."

Matty, Timmy and Jimmy all lifted there heads in the order their last names were said and replied, "Yes Professor McGonagall." All 3 said.

"Erm yes." Said Benji.

Professor McGonagall rolled her eyes at Benji, shut the door and moved onto the next carriage.

A few minutes later, Professor McGonagall arrived at Penelope's carriage with herself, Michelle and Liberty inside.

She tapped on the glass and opened the door.

"Get into your robes girls, please."

"Yes Professor." Said Liberty.

Michelle and Penelope looked at each other and then nodded to Professor McGonagall.

Before she left them to get changed she paused a second, "You look familiar." She said.

Penelope looked confused.

"Did either of your parent's come here?"

"No, my mum went to Beauxbatons Academy of Magic and my dad went to Durmstrang."

Once Penelope said this she glanced at Michelle and Liberty and they had a look of horror on their face at what she just said. She glanced back at the teacher and the teacher also looked terrified.

"Oh, interesting. I've never met someone who's family went to Durmstrang."

"Is that a bad thing?" Asked Penelope. "Am I  in trouble?"

"No, I just need to inform someone about this-"

"I never knew my dad! He died not long after I was born." Penelope exclaimed as if it would make a difference.

"Well, goodbye." Said Professor McGonagall rushing out of the compartment with her wand in her hand.

"Did I say something?" Penelope asked her friends.

Michelle looked at Liberty as she was unsure what Durmstang was.

"Well, surely you know what Durmstang is, don't you?"

"Yes, it's a school my dad went to, my mum only told me it it was evil but my dad left when he was a teenager. My mum also says that he wasn't bad forever. Once he met my mum he became good."

Liberty looked Penelope strangely as if she didn't believe her.

"Look Penelope, I really don't think this is a thing many people should know about you, so no one in this room should repeat this ever again. Can I ask you one last thing though?"

"Yes, Liberty."

"You apparently told my sister that your last name was 'Smith'. Is that true?"

"No. It's Grindelwald."

Liberty looked shocked.

"As in, Gellert Grindelwald?" She asked.

"Yes."

"Who's he?" Asked Michelle.

"His a evil man, people think he killed Dumbledore."

"Who's that?" Asked Penelope.

"He was the old head teacher of this school."

"Oh. My mum never told me he killed a teacher."

Penelope didn't know what to believe, she knew that her mum never told her about the bad stuff her dad did but she never thought it would be as bad as murder. Little did Penelope know, it was in face her mum who killed Albus Dumbledore.
