Hogwarts No POV

Winter Break was over, 2 weeks after Wade threatened Filch. He did stick to most of his words, he was tired, very tired. He walked over to a balcony and stood outside. He looked into the distance at the grey clouds and thunder heard in the distance.

Wade had a vision of Azkaban and someone casting a very huge Bombarda spell letting 10 prisoners free and they all had the Death Eater mark. He also heard two maniac chuckles, one male and the other female.

That night, was exactly what happened as the Daily Prophet was quick to report this. Fudge trying to still cover the truth of Voldemort's return, blamed the breakout on Sirius Black since he was the cousin of Bellatrix Lestrange, and told the press that the Mastermind of this was Wade Grindelwald, wanting more members to join his cause.

This didn't make sense to anyone who fought in the Global Wizarding War since Grindelwald didn't really recruit crazy people, just anyone devoted to the cause. And someone like Bellatrix was not one of those people.

Wade read the Daily Prophet and just ripped it in half and walking past him is the Golden Trio.

Hermione: Dumbledore warned Fudge this could happen. He's gonna get us all killed just 'cause he can't face the truth.

Seamus: Harry? I, uh, I wanted to apologize. Now even me mum says The Prophet's version of things doesn't add up. So, what I'm really trying to say is that... I believe you.

Harry looked at Wade as he remembered his words. Wade left the Great Hall as his friends followed him, they went over to the Room of Requirements and entered as they was a sandbag already there.

Ben: why is there a sandbag here?

He got his answer when Wade just started punching the sandbag a lot and didn't stop, not even when his fist started bleeding from just punching it. He punched it for an hour straight as his friends just watched, none of them saying a word or wanting to get involved in fear that he might change targets from the sandbag to their faces.

He finally stopped as he let out a sigh.

Wade:<turns to look at his friends> sorry about that. I needed to vent out my anger.

Barnaby: understandable.

Wade:<looks at his watch> I better go. It's almost time for your next lesson.

Tonks: Wade, wait.

Wade:<stops and looks at her>

Tonks: are you sure you're okay?

Wade: I'm not sure anymore. I'll see you all later.

Wade left as his friends felt his rage and despair. The whole situation of him being a criminal just because he is related to Grindelwald was already starting to get to him.

Later

Harry walked over to Neville who was standing in front of the mirror which had a few things taped into it like pictures or newspaper headlines to motivate the group.

Neville: 14 years ago, a Death Eater named Bellatrix Lestrange used the Cruciatus Curse on my parents. She tortured them for information, but they never gave in. I'm quite proud to be their son. But I'm not sure I'm ready for everyone to know just yet.

Harry:<nods in understanding> we're gonna make them proud, Neville. That's a promise.

The next lesson they all had was to cast a Patronus Charm, Seamus joined the group and was caught up on all the lessons. Ginny casted a Horse Patronus, Hermione an Otter, Ron a dog, Luna a rabbit, Penny a Golden Retriever, Ben a Lion, Andre a great peacock, Talbott an eagle, Chiara a wolf, Ismelda a snake, Barnaby a Hippogriff, Tonks a wolf as well, etc.
