Task #2 Write about a group of people hunting/searching for hidden treasure
Queenie Kowalski neé Goldstein landed outside her old school Ilvermorny with her husband Jacob for a school reunion.
"You think your old friends will like me?" Jacob asked.
Queenie smiled. "Of course, honey."
"I'm not magical like them," Jacob sighed.
Queenie just kissed her husband.
"Goldstein?" a familiar voice asked.
"It's Kowalski now." she chirped reluctantly pulling away from her husband to face an old friend of hers.
"Kowalski, that's a no maj name isn't it?" she asked.
"Yes, is that a problem?" Queenie asked linking her arm with her husband's.
"No, not at all, " she spluttered.
Suddenly a group of people filed out of the castle.
"Where's everyone going?" Queenie asked.
"Goldstein?" another one of her old classmates asked.
"It's Kowalski now."
The other woman said. "We're going to go hunting for treasure namely that time capsule we buried in our seventh year."
"I remember that time capsule."Queenie said as she and Jacob started to follow the group.
"You don't know a lot of things, Gold- Kowalski,"
she said.
Jacob defended his wife. "Queenie is very smart."
The blond smiled at her husband.
"How long have you been married?"
"Almost twenty years now," Queenie smiled.
"Any kids?"
"Three kids, they're over my sister's with their cousins."
"Didn't your sister marry Newt Scamander?
Queenie sighed. "She did."
She loved her sister she really did but she always felt second best to her older sister.
"How did you two meet?"
"We met when Newt brought a case full of Creatures to New York and we had to find them since they got loose."
"Though, I had to obliviate him at the end of the adventure but I found him again and gave him back his memories."
"Is that where you got that scar?" the other woman asked Jacob.
The man touched the back of his neck and nodded.
They continued searching for the spot where they buried the time capsule.
"What are your kid's names?"
"Jacob Jr, Michael and Diana. Jacob starts Hogwarts next year. I'm trying to convince Michael to go to Ilvermorny."
The other woman nodded.
"Do you have a significant other?"
"I've been married for about 25 years now and I have six daughters and a son."
"Wow, that's a lot of kids!"
"They're a handful but I love them. Our oldest is a third year and second oldest is going to start her first year."
Queenie nodded.
"Two of my daughters are twins."
"What are their names?"
"Abigail, Martha, Mary, Frances, Hannah, Rachel and Thomas is my baby boy."
Queenie asked. "Where did you get all those names?"
"My husband is a no-maj born who is political nerd. So our daughters are named after First Ladies and our son is named after a former president."
Before Queenie could respond they reached the spot where they buried the time capsule and started digging.
"Do you remember what you buried?" Jacob asked his wife.
"No, I don't."
"Do we really have to dig can't we just use magic?" Another girl complained.
They continued digging until they hit something solid.
"Here it is!"
They cleaned the dirt off it and pried it open. Queenie looked in the time capsule.
"This is your treasure?" Jacob asked.
Queenie nodded. "It's a necklace that my mum gave me."
"Didn't your mum die when you were a kid?"
Queenie nodded. Jacob picked up the necklace and put it around his wife's neck and kissed her.
"You found your treasure but I've always had my treasure," he smiled.
She smiled and kissed her husband.
