Stone and Sister

Gellet Grindelwald had left for Dumstrang not telling Dumbledore that what exactly was that 3 days trip for.
Dumbledore, on the other hand remained quite busy these days in his discoveries of uses of Dragon's Blood. Dragon's blood. He had already discovered it's 12 uses years ago but he was sure that one more thing might come out as a use,
probably the best one so far. If ever, he found it's use, [and he was pretty sure what the use was going to be] he might never tell anyone about that discovery. Tappings and flickings of Wand continued for days and days and by the look on his face, one could easily tell that he was inches away from conclusion. Dumbledore decided to give the blood some rest and decided to go for a short walk behind the Graveyard. It was half morning half night, the sun was half rising and it's glittering shine was spread all over the place. Dumbledore wore his long blue cloak which had written on it in the front with capital letters 'ALBUS'.

" Ab, I'm going out for a short walk, and please ignore the small mess in my roon. I'll return in a while"

A brisk sound from a not far-away room signalled that Aberforth, Albus' brother had heard him. Dumbledore left for some peace and a short walk tuned into a long one. He walked and walked and the Graveyeard which was the general target for Dumbledore to go for a walk was left way too behind. Suddenly, the calm and clear expressions turned sharp when Dumbledore stopped immidiately in front of a Big Chamber. Fleeting sounds of hissing were coming from far away inside the Chamber. He took out his wand and touched the nothingness of air with it. Sparks came out from between the tip of his Wand and the air. These were certainly the protective enchantments of a very very Powerfull Wizard. Dumbledore took a step backwards and vanished from sight. He had apparated straight back to his very room in his house.

"Albus, is that you?" said Abeforth's un-calmed voice

"Yes" said Albus clearly signalling from his voice that he is in no mood to argue over why he Apparated staright into the house.

He, Dumbledore, took out a bottle out of thin air and poured the Dragon's blood in it Judiciously. Then A sudden loud CRACK took Dumbledore's notice when he saw Gellert Gindelwald walking towards his house. With a flick of his wand, Dumbledore's Dragon's blood vanished and his seconds-ago messy room turned in an elegant order. Moments later Grindelwald stormed into the house.

"Albus, it's about the hallows...the deathly hallows. The ressurection stone is right here under our nose. The peverel brothers'
Grave, right behind your house" said Grindelwald in one go.

Dumbledore grabbed the latter's arm and apparated straight in the graveyard behind his house.

" I hope you're certain this time"

" Damn certain Albus, Damn certain"

"Let's hope for the best then"

The duo sprinted to find Cadmus Peverell's Grave. Soon they reached the Grave but fell flabbergasted on the site. Someone else had already explored it,
and it looked clearly that the person had got what he wanted. The Ressurection stone was gone.

" NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" shrieked Gellert Gindelwald

Both Dumbledore and Grindelwald were damn sure that they could never fullfil their ambition entitled 'For Greater Good' without the Ressurection stone.
Their dreams were choked and by whom, they did not know.

"Albus What do you think, who took it?"

" Absolutely no idea, who else could be behind the Hallows but us"

Both men, still in deep thoughts walked back to Dumbledore's house.

1 month later

Both men remained still in deep thoughts about the stone. But for Albus, their was something more important to worry for. Kendara Dumbledore, mother of Albus and Aberforth was found dead in the house. Aberforth was gone to buy th seeds for his plants and Albus as usual on his World tour with fellow friend Elphias. Only their mother and young sister Ariana were present in the house. The neighbours said they heard a loud 'Bang' and the silence followed it. Ariana, who spoke with nobody but Aberforth, told him that she killed her mother herself. But the brothers could do nothing in it, they were very familiar with their sister's mental conditions. Ariana had obviously not killed her mother intentionally. One day when Dumbledore,Aberforth,Grindelwald and Ariana were standing outside their house, the former spoker

"Ab, i think we should move somewhere else from this place. This atmosphere is no more comfortable."

"Are you out of your mind Albus? snapped Aberforth "Look at Ariana's state, do you think she's ready to be shifted"

"She'll be much better somewhere else Ab, I've arranged a house near 'Pludge's inn'. And we're moving their today only"

"All right then, you and this Evil piece [pointing straight at Gindelwald] are all set for another adventure, but this time you're showing off that you're the Boss. Isn't it Albus?"

"Don't you utter another word" said Grindelwald warningly.

Aberfoth took out his Wand and said-

"Let us settle this once and for all Gellert"

Grindelwald who knew that Aberforth was absolutely no match to him took out his Wand too. But Dumbledore came between them and said-

"Ab, you've still not come out from he tragic loss of our dear mother. I am too depressed after that but this is important, we should move from here"

" I know what your plans are, to your surprise Albus Dumbledore i very well know your 'Greater Good' ambitions"

" ABERFORTH!" said Grindelwald pushing Dumbledore aside and pointing his Wand straight at the other.

"RICTUSEMPRA!"

A jet of white light crashed straight into Aberforth's chest and he flew back hiting the wall with his head first.

"No, Gellert"

Now Dumbledore took out his Wand and pointed straight at Grindelwald. But before he could react aberforth cried

"SCORGIFY!" his brother called from behind

"PROTEGO" acted Grindelwald at once.

"You want to duel, you filth?

Dumbledore saw the redness rising in his best friend's eyes.

" CRUCIO!" cried Grindelwald, and Abrforth fell on the floor haking and panting from head to foot. Ariana rose immidiately not knowing what has happened ran to her brother. Tears falling from her eyes breathlessly.

Dumbledore did a vigorous flick of his Wand and Grindelwald fell back at once. His brother had stopped shaking now. Grindelwald stood up half amazed and half umbraged.

"This is it Albus. It's the end." He now pointed his wand at Dumbledore and the duo started firing cures at each other. Aberforth came too and shot curses madly.
Dumbledore could hear Ariana's wails. Moments later her wails stopped and silence fell all over the place. Ariana Dumbledore lied incapacitated on th ground.

"ARIANA" shouted Aberforth to his highest pitch of voice and fell on her body. He was agitating her in hope to see her move. But nothing happened, Ariana was dead. Dumbledore stood pacific. Grindelwald had apparated instantly.
