SCARS || Newt Scamander

Ten

Clara's Christmas was alright. She didn't expect her dad to be Gellert Grindelwald. Clara decided to owl Newt.

Dear Newt,

I have some news. I found out who my dad is. It's not good. He's Gellert Grindelwald. I know. See you at school,

Clara

She tied it to her owl and sent it off. She then went back downstairs. They had opened up presents, and Clara was already wearing Newt's gift. She had sent him a book on magical creatures that he hasn't read or bought.

Rose was glaring at Gellert from across the room, as she sipped her tea. Gellert was by Clara, telling her of his magical adventures. She listened, interested in het father's history.

Newt flipped through Clara's book she had sent him. He was looking through, searching for the werewolves. He hadn't been able to find anything on them, ever since he found out that they hadn't made a potion cure for it.

Someone stepped into the Hufflepuff common room, Newt closed the book and turned to see who it was.

Standing at the entrance, was a girl with long blonde hair and blue eyes. She was wearing a big sweater with a scratch across her face.

"Clara!" Newt shouted, standing up and going to his best friend.

"Hey Newt." She said, grinning at him. He hugged her, she hugged back.

"Did you get my owl?" She asked.

"The note?" He asked. She nodded.

"Yes I got it. Gellert Grindelwald is your father!" Newt exclaimed.

"It's quiet shocking. Mum doesn't like him, but then again I don't understand why she would have me with him if she hated him." Clara said.

"Well, he is known for the Dark Arts. And wasn't he friends with Dumbeldore?" Newt asked.

"Yes, he told me about all his adventures with him." Clara told him. Newt frowned.

"You should go tell Dumbeldore." Newt said.

"Why? I wouldn't be known as Clara Angell here if anyone found out. I'd be known as Clara Grindelwald." Clara said, making sure no one was around.

"I guess so.... Did you have a good Christmas?" He asked.

"I did. Did you?" She asked.

"Yep! It was more quiet than usual, but that's all right." Newt said shrugging.

"Should we go to the Black Lake?" She asked him.

"Yeah! I'll go grab my scarf." He said, going up to his dorm. Clara went up to grab her Hufflepuff scarf. Sophie and Maggie were in the girl's dorm.

Clara wrapped the scarf around her as she went down to find Newt. She found him outside the common room and the two walked down to the Black Lake.

The Black Lake was frozen over, and Clara walked on it for a while. She could see the Giant Squid swim by, and she swore she saw the Slytherin common room from there. Newt was on the ice as well as many other students.

They started a snowball fight, Hufflepuffs vs. Gryffindor. The Hufflepuffs had a successful victory, until the Slytherins and Ravenclaws pelted the Gryffindor and Hufflepuffs.

"Not fair!" The Gryffindors shouted, the Ravenclaws laughed at them. Some Slytherin's snickered. Clara grinned, she was happy she got to go to Hogwarts.
