The Grindelwalds 2

Grindelwald Has Returned? Part 31

"Hello Mildred, I think we should start planning things for tomorrow."

"Tomorrow? So soon."

"Yes, but I just want this over and done with now."

Mildred walked into the living room and Sarah followed her.

"Mildred, why don't we do this in a garage, I don't want the kids to hear us planning things."

"Oh ok, Sarah." Mildred left the living room and went into the drive way.

Sarah quickly found a scrap piece of paper in the living room and wrote something down on it to tell the children where they were;

Penelope, Luzia,

Mildred and I will be in the garage if you need us.

Sarah then left the note out on the kitchen countertop and then left the house. When she got to the garage, Mildred was already sat on the floor.

"I figured you wouldn't want us to sit on Professor Villarreal's bed while we do this."

Sarah looked up and saw Richards bed in the distance.

"No, let's sit here." Sarah squatted down next to Mildred. "Before we start, may I ask you something, Mildred?"

"What?"

"This might sound silly, but can people come back from the dead after years of being dead?"

"I assume not, Sarah. If people came back then the world would be awfully overpopulated."

"Hmm, do you believe in Heaven?" Sarah went on.

"Yes, it's a nice way to see death. I like to think that Master Grindelwald, Oris and soon to be Benji will be together there."

"So do I-"

"Why do you ask these things, Sarah?"

Sarah took a deep breath and spoke, "I had a really odd dream last night and I think it might have been real, which I know sounds stupid, but if I explain it all to you you'd believe it."

"Explain it then."

"I was at Benji's wedding somehow. I know it doesn't make sense, but it was so real. He was a man and he was marrying Matty, the boy from Hogwarts. Luzia and Penelope were there with their husbands too, they had children of their own. Gellert was there and he was so real, he said that all of the children will die from awful things and go to Heaven way before I do. He made it seem like children age in Heaven and they are happier there than on Earth. I got so confused and Gellert had to help me understand things. He told me to forget him and move on with my love life, he said that if I move on from him, he'll always protect me from death."

"I am sure this was just a dream, Sarah- your imagination playing tricks on you."

"But the super weird thing is that when I woke up this morning, Gellert's side of the bed looked like it had been slept in, I went over to that side of the bed and moved the duvet and... Gellert's Elder Wand was there."

"What, really? How is that possible?"

"I don't know. I took the wand out of the bed and put it with the rest of Gellert's things in his wardrobe. I don't understand how it got there unless Gellert was alive...

In St Mungos hospital. Richard was visited by the women that killed Benji, Delphini.

Richard was lying in his bed in a cold sweat, he was shivering and extremely pale. Delphini looked different from before, she looked less like a younger version of Bellatrix Lestrange and more like Jadis the White Witch from the film series, The Chronicles of Narnia. She now looked slightly more aged, she had white hair and a white dress on- like a wedding dress. She entered the room and walked over to the end of Richard's bed.

"Hello, vampire boy." She said in the same voice as before- like a shriek.

"I k-killed y-you." Richard said while shivering.

"If I died, I'd have vanished in thin air. I didn't- I got carried away with one of my fathers loyal Death Eaters. That is not why I am here now though, I am here to offer you a deal as you seem to be suffering in here."

"Hmm."

"I have been watching the house of Grindelwald and I have heard that young Benji will be buried tomorrow at his fathers castle."

"Hmm."

"I want to offer you a chance to redeem yourself or at least for Gellert Grindelwald to redeem himself. The death he had 13 years ago was pitiful and could be done better."

"What do I need to d-do?"

"I want to kill you and resurrect Gellert Grindelwald's body inside yours. I imagine you'd like that as you are in love with Mrs Sarah Grindelwald so I am sure that being her loyal husband would interest you."

"I only ever wanted S-Sarah to be h-happy."

"And I am sure that you being dead would make her really happy, after all you know that she'll only ever love Gellert anyway."

"Do what you m-must, just don't let Sarah get her heart broken a-again." Richard said.

That seemed to be his last breath as Delphini killed him with a curse which was not verbal. Once his head flopped over on his shoulder, Delphini reached inside of her pocket and pulled out the Resurrection Stone. How she somehow got it was unknown, but she used it.

She kept a clear image of Gellert Grindelwald in her mind and held the stone tightly in her right hand. She closed her eyes and waited until she felt the stone move in her hand. After about 30 seconds, the stone vibrated and Delphini knew what had been done. She opened her eyes, Gellert Grindelwald was laying in the bed before her.

"Mr Grindelwald?"

"Delphini Riddle." He said. He sounded the same as he used to and looked the same too.

"How are you, Mr Grindelwald?"

"Pleasantly content."

"Great, I do not have your wand, but I am sure you know how to Apparate to your wife's address."

"Indeed I do, I want to see her immediately."

"Good man, but first, let me tell you a little secret."

"Hmm." Grindelwald raised his eyes brows.

"Your wife has been cheating on you." She whispered to him, "With a man named Richard Villarreal, I want you to punish her for it."

Grindelwald looked confused, he had never heard that name before. "How?" He asked.

"Anyway you see fit, but maybe try your best to do it while the children are not around."

"Hmm."

"Good, now leave." She shrieked.

Grindelwald stared at her and then Disapparated.
