Cursed Legacy

Chapter Five

Rhode Island 1945

The Night was calm and chilly in a distant town not far from Rhode Island but something about the way the wind blew felt unnatural especially to the young girl who hid under the covers. Her father explained that her mother is spending the night at the hospital with her brother before leaving her with a goodbye but the Mundane child was kept awake by the tree branches banging against her window. Unknown to her something wicked crawled to her room its thin, long-fingered hand opening her window. A shadowy figure creeps in like a silent serpent and as the girl rolled over to see what the noise was, the thing's mouth outstretched hand glowed white and grew closer to her face as she let out her final scream before her vision darkened

On this particular night, he sat silently in the chilling dorm a letter was written to him by his mother in the following, no doubt explaining that the Rosier Family has been discarded.Kenji Rosier paraded various masks of the ideal Heir to the union of the Rosier and Grindelwald Family, the Left-hand of his Gellert Grindelwald, and the next leader of the Dark Faction after his father.

He was a model to the younger generation of Hollows a Mage that surpassed others in the arts of Magic and tactics unlike his incompetent father who's leadership is questionable and needlessly provokes a rebellion within their enemies. He quickly folded the letter leaving it on his desk and returned to his bed only with his thoughts, and closed his eyes, besides this feeling of anger which absorbed him altogether and hindered him. The Heir of Rosier was now more willing to follow the detailed plan of his mother.

In the morning the sun rose bright and fair, and without a cloud, although it was clear that the season was changing, Kenji showered and dressed before immediately leaving for work. But as the Heir of Grindelwald continued on his way he couldn't help but notice the empty playground he only saw a kid playing yet there was no other child, however, when he turned around he bumped into none other than Rigel Tenebris who dropped a basket of flowers and held a cup of coffee tightly.

"Tenebris! I am so sorry I wasn't looking-"

"It's alright you meant no harm, I wasn't much in a hurry actually" Tenebris replied then his expression turned to curiosity

"Humm, are you alright? I mean from last week?" Kenji asked

"Yeah,"

"Good" Kenji sound relieved although he was surprised by the next words that flowed out of his mouth "Rigel, I know this might sound weird but do you think something is awry with this place?" Kenji indicating to the playground, the place was deserted only one child playing around

"It is quite unnerving, but isn't school out?" Rigel replied

"Yeah. So where is everybody? I've walked here a dozen times so this place should be crawling with kids now" The Ravenhead narrowed his eyes in suspicion then marched to the mother sitting on the park bench reading a magazine without a word.

"Excuse, me Mrs. I was wondering why this place is quiet," Rigel asked

"Yeah, it's a shame" she replied

"Why's that?"

"You know, kids getting sick, it's a terrible thing. Are you perhaps new I have never seen you before?" she asked

"I moved here, half a year ago but my friend over there was worried so I came to ask" he replied then returned to the subject "How many children got sick?"

"Just five or six but serious, hospital serious. A lot of parents are getting pretty anxious. They think it's catching." He thanked the woman before returning to Kenji an uneasy feeling coiled in his stomach and by the expression on Tenebris's face, he wasn't exactly fond of what was happening
