See for yourself

"Why are you here?!" Christopher said while gripping his hair and pacing infront of the two women. "To see my brother ofcourse. Why do you think?" Leta said as she bit into a grape she had picked up from the fruit basket on the table in the room.

"Leta Lestrange!" Christopher said in frustration and walked to his older sister while Azazel watched with amusement. "You can't be here! What if someone sees you?! You are dead to everyone!" Christopher said in a low voice and gave Azazel a look.

"I know. But I heard about the attack on you guys, I had to check if you were alright. I couldn't come to the school. I can't lose another brother too Chris" Leta said in a more serious tone and Christopher sighed while running his hand through his already wild hair.

"Fine. You saw me. Leave. None of the Rosiers should see you" the younger Lestrange said in a anxious tone and pulled his sister to the door. "Wait wait wait! What is happening here?" Azazel interrupted and stopped the boy. "I'll explain later Bellum. Later." Christopher repeated and pulled his sister again while wiping the sweat on his forehead.

He reached for the door handle but the door opened before he could and the pair moved back to prevent themselves from getting hurt.

"Azazel, where--" Tom stopped talking as his eyes landed on Adélard and the women beside him.

"Oh shit" Azazel muttered as Tom's eyes switched between the three people and cocked his brow when they landed on Christopher for the third time.

"Lock the door. Get in and lock it!" Christopher rushed and pulled Riddle in before locking the door.

"Will you stop panicking?" Leta said and Christopher threw his hands in the air. "How am I not supposed panic?! You are here! In Rosier manor! And these two! They know you are alive now!" Christopher let out nonsensical sounds in disapproval.

"It's just us. It's not like we are going to tell anyone" Azazel shrugged and glanced at Tom who also gave a nod. "You have to calm down" Leta said once again and Christopher stopped pacing to get a breath and sighed.

"We have to get you out of here. You saw me, happy now? It's time to leave." Leta smiled at her panicking brother and patted his head. "I knew how to get in. I also know how to get out of here. Stop making a fuss about it." Christopher sighed and gave his sister a done look.

Azazel was amused. She had never seen Christopher lose his cool but now the boy was completely going insane. It was good to see someone who was always uptight lose their cool.

"Be careful and take care of yourself Chris" Leta said to her brother before planting a kiss on his forehead and turning to the other two in the room.

"Bellum, it's nice to see you again but I am guessing you being here is what caused all the problems?" Leta said with a smile but Azazel felt guilt pool in her heart once again. "It's okay, as long as you are here, it's fine" Leta said and Azazel smiled.

She remembered how Tom had said something similar the other night.

"See you around, you two" Leta smiled at Tom before disappearing into the night.

"Explain?" Azazel cocked a brow at Christopher and he sighed as he ran a hand across his face.

"She did not die that night" Tom and Azazel shared a look before Azazel said in a matter of fact tone "Uh, we can see that."

Christopher scowled at her "You saved her."

"I am sorry, what?" Azazel gave him a confused look. "Not intentionally but you did. When she destroyed the skull hookah, you were there. Everyone thought Grindelwald's flames burned her alive, but no, you had pulled her away and she slipped away from there."
