There were two flashes of green as two redheaded figures emerged, the woman was sobbing while the man was all but, clearing trying to hold his feelings in while he held the woman. They walked down a few hallways, stopping in a waiting room where only one figure sat. A pale old man with long white hair and a white beard just as long, in navy blue robes, was holding a matching blue hat in his hands. He was staring blankly at a random spot on an off-white wall.
"Please, Albus, tell us those rumors were just nasty lies.." The young woman pleaded as she and the younger of the two men walked up to the older one whose name was Albus.
"I'm afraid not, dear Molly. Four Death Eaters were found in the Montgomery family living room with all three members tied to chairs..." "All 3?! You don't mean they-" "No, thankfully little Samantha is alive. But they didn't go easier on her just because she was a child... They performed the Crucio Curse on her multiple times... We assume it was to get her parents into talking." "Multiple? But.." As Albus raised his hand, the man immediately stopped speaking. "We only know that it was more than twice at this moment. She's in with the doctors right now, checking for any damage but she's shutting down... Her parents were tortured and killed in front of her. I know this is a lot to ask, but do you think you could sit with her and see if she can help with any statements? Maybe if she has some familiar faces, she will be willing to give us a copy of her memory..." Without a pause, the man responded, "Of course! But I have a feeling that isn't all you called us here for."
"Right, as usual, Arthur. I'm sure you two remember how her godparents were the late Potters... Well, they had updated their wills, have you heard about it?" The two shook their heads no. "Well, it asks that you two, if abled, could become her guardians. Is that something that you would be open to?" The two redheads only had to make brief eye contact to know their answer. "Of course. Kelsa and Emersyn would've done the same for us in a heartbeat." The old man nodded, "Perfect, thank you very much. Since you said yes, they also want you to have 10,000 galleons a year until her 18th birthday to help support her and help yourselves in any way. The money will be kept in the Montgomery vault, withdrawn at the beginning of each year automatically. You will have a key as will Samantha." "Oh but Albus we don't want to accept that!" "Are you denying a dead woman's last wish, Mrs. Weasley?" He asked with a small smile on his face in an effort to lift their spirits, even if just a little. "That is a cruel way to get us to accept that.." "Actually, it looks like Kelsa knew you would try to refuse so she requested what I say. It's written right here." As he points to the line on the parchment he held. The couple gives a shaky laugh, occasionally blowing their noses. "Well then, it's settled. I'll give you a copy of the will to read at your own convenience, and here is a letter Kelsa left for the two of you, she also left these for certain events in Samanthas life. I also have one to give to her for "When It feels right" during her time at Hogwarts. I advise you to open that letter somewhere where it'll just be the two of you. It contains very important information that, until this point, only four people have known. I think for her safety, you shall keep it as well." "Of cour-"
"Professor Dumbledore? The doctors are asking for you and your guests." A nurse warmly, but with a sad smile, invites the three of them back into a secured brightly lit hallway, in a highly secure wing that was reserved only for child patients in critical care.
"We shall find a date and time to finish going over everything we haven't yet. Is that alright?" "Of course, you know we love it when you visit. But there is one thing I'm curious about... Does she have the Montgomery sigils and Kelsas... gifts?" As Molly finishes her question, the doors behind the three and the nurse close shut.
