Young and Hopeless
Chapter 6
'Grindlewald's Mansion'
A/N: I hope that you like it so far. If it was boring here is where we start getting to the good part.
*******************
Previous Chapter: "Very Well" the voice said. All of the sudden they started to feel drowsy and after about 2 minutes they all blacked out.
************************************************************************
"Oh aren't they cute!" A voice squealed
'Cute?' Riddle thought in his mind 'How old do they think I am?' Then he groaned and fell back into a deep sleep. On the other hand Ruby decided to stay in a semiconscious state of mind. (Where she is asleep but not in a deep sleep) She listened to the people gossip and squeal about her and how cute it was the way her and Riddle were sleeping next to each other. (Of course the idiots didn't know their names were Ruby and Riddle)
"Wake up little ones," a different voice said as if they were talking to a baby.
At that instant Ruby opened her eyes and sat up. Everyone gasped and looked at her.
"Have you been listening to us the whole time?" A maiden said
"NO! Only since one of you freaks said 'Oh aren't they cute!' What are we three years old?"
Everyone was silent. Ruby decided to wake Riddle up. She did this by shaking him and hitting him.
"What." Riddle moaned "Just five more minutes please."
"Wake up!" she spat
"Alright, alright don't have a cow," Riddle sat up and looked around. He woke Lucius up just the same as Ruby did him.
"What the." Lucius said "Okay I am scared."
Everyone was staring at them with great curiosity upon their faces.
"Alright people, that's enough, nothin' to see here. Go on get back to work, unless you would like some punishment," A boy around 16 years old made his way through the bustling crowd. "You heard me!" at that moment everyone could be heard going upstairs.
"Who are you?" Lucius said curiously
"My name is Jason Ventrili and I am a noble of Grindlewald's mansion. I will be watching over you for your stay here, which will be for like ever!" Jason said proudly
"How old are you?" Riddle asked
"Seventeen."
"So Jason, how'd you end up here?" Ruby asked
"Same way you guys did. Only I was 12 and I didn't want to Grindlewald forced me to."
"I bet you miss your family," Ruby said
"Nope, just my mom but I never got to see her anyways."
"Why not?" Riddle asked
"Because you see I am only a half blood and my mom was the witch and my dad was a muggle. He took me away from her when I was five."
"Oh that's so sad," Ruby said. "I have a family back home. I miss them a lot. It's just my mom and dad though. You see I am basically an only child. My parents have this picture of a boy that they took in when he was little. I never got to meet him- only when I was real little because he ran away."
Jason didn't say anything. He had an idea of who the boy was but not entirely.
"Who were those people?" Riddle asked breaking the silence
"Just other servants of Grindlewald," Jason replied
"Oh,"
As they looked around they saw that they were in a basement of some sort. There were concrete walls and big wooden doors leading to other rooms. There were concrete floors as well. The only thing that really looked nice was the bed they were lying in. It had satin sheets and a nice big comforter. The pillows were so soft that the minute your head touched them you would fall asleep. That wasn't the only think nice. The garments they were wearing were made of silk.
"Okay. I must be dreaming," Ruby said
"Nope this is real," Jason sighed "Welcome to Grindlewald's dungeon." He gestured for them to get up.
"C'mon I will show you guys around," He said
"Not to be rude or anything." Lucius started
"But there's nothing to see," Riddle finished
Jason laughed. "I am showing you the whole mansion."
"Oh," Riddle and Lucius said in chorus.
"Well change into your robes and we will begin the tour."
Ruby went behind the curtain that Jason put up for her and she put on her robes. When she exited Riddle and Lucius were just about to put on their shirts. Ruby whistled and Riddle and Lucius hurried to finish.
"Ready?" Jason asked
Riddle examined himself and then Ruby and Lucius "Yeah, I think we're ready."
"Well lets not waist any more time talking," Jason said
"Will we see master Grindlewald on this grand tour?" Ruby asked
"Maybe, the master is a very busy man,"
"Bull Sh**!" Riddle coughed
"What was that?" Jason asked surprised.
"I must have a cold or something," Riddle said coughing to cover up his comment
They were at the top of the stairs now.
"The master does not allow cursing," Marius walked up behind them
"Dad?" Lucius said looking surprised
"What? Yes I am one of Grindlewald's servants," Marius sighed "So this is where you have been coming all this time," Lucius
"Jason you know what Grindlewald said about them," Marius said pointing at Riddle Ruby and Lucius.
"I know just chill man, I am just showin' them around the joint," Jason said
It seemed to them that Marius disliked Jason so Jason would talk slang just to piss him off.
Marius just looked at them with pure anger upon him. Riddle smiled in satisfaction.
(From the basement door) To their right was a long dining table. They walked toward it, and to their left was a in the hall way was a bathroom or laventry. When they reached the dining room to their right was a great room where a fire crackled and to their left was a very large kitchen. They walked through it and then they turned left down a hallway. On their right was a small foyer area where a door stood leading outside. (They knew this because duh, Jason told them) On their left was a laundry room. And ahead of them was yet another room. They walked into it and found that it was an office. It had many shelves and books along with a computer. They turned left and took about five steps into a great foyer. To their right was another door (the front door) leading outside, and to their left was the hall in which they had started. Ahead of them was a staircase and farther beyond that was a sitting room. They went up the winding staircase to the upstairs part. It was huge. It had five bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. There were three rooms in the back of the mansion and two bedrooms toward the front. All of them, but one, were exactly the same. The ones that were identical just had one bed a dresser and a nightstand on either side of the bed. They also had a closet on one wall. The one different one had a bunk bed set and one single twin bed on the opposite wall. It had a 3-shelf bookcase and 2 dressers. It was also bigger and had a bigger closet. There was a short hallway leading to a huge bedroom. It had a fireplace and a desk and a book case. It even had a small kitchen area in it. It had a bathroom going off of it as well.
"Well that is the Mansion," Jason said leading the trio downstairs. "Well it is 2:00 so I guess we could just hang out in the dungeons."
They did just that. Jason talked about everything like what UCG is.
"U.C.G. is the United City of Grindlewald. Everyone who lives in this city is under the power of Grindlewald. They have to obey all of the laws. And if they fail to then they are punished. All of the adults except for Grindlewald are nobles. Grindlewald is the one and only royalty. There was one more class added in just last night and that was pre- royals. You three are just those. You are higher class that nobles and lower than royalty. But even though I am only a noble you still have to obey what I say because I am older, the same thing with my fellow comrades, Adrian, Trayc, Aaron and the other workers of Grindlewald like your father, Lucius." Jason explained.
"If the grown ups are nobles then what are the children?" Ruby asked
"Oh I almost forgot," Jason started. "All children start out as nobles. On the other hand, if they are brought here- like I was -then they are considered peasants- the lowest class of U.C.G. Or, if their parents die or disown them they also become servants or peasants. Also, if they are taken away from their parents by Grindlewald they become servants right away."
"Oh," Ruby said.
"Blimey! Is that the time?" Jason said looking at his watch. "You three best be getting to bed, Tomorrow you start your first session. I can't say what it is yet because I don't know. Well good night." Jason went upstairs.
