Looking To The Past (Closed)

Senium was home from Hogwarts for the holidays, and she was home from spending time with Richard as well, it had been nice but she had felt out of place in his home because it was still in mourning very much, she didn't want to intrude when it was clear that the two of them needed to spend some time together to sort out their feelings, it seemed like she was a distraction for Richard, to stop him from feeling the pain. She was happy to be so, but there was a time where that had to stop, and now hopefully Briony and Richard will sort this out.

Opening the door to her small cottage, Senium sighed a little bit and looked around its emptiness, she needed to sort through her grandpapa's stuff, and get it all organised, after all it was her house now, she needed to make it so. Planning some redecoration was one of her main hopes for the future, it was just so bare and plain, she wanted some colour in here, maybe some blues, some dark reds.

Wandering through to her Grandpapa's bedroom her breath caught in her throat, she had not been in here since he died, but, after all the help she had been receiving she was more than ready. Her hand opened the cupboard door and she hummed as she got out all of his old shirts and trousers, placing them in a pile, some she would keep but the rest she was planning to give to Charity, if they would take them off her that was. It was then she had to get a chair to clamber up to the top shelf, she had always thought it was empty but, thought she had better check.

When she found it was indeed empty she sighed and put the chair back, but it was then at the bottom of the cupboard she found what looked like a rune. Frowning, she knelt down on the floor and gently ran her finger over it, it immediately glowed blue and a drawer sprung open from the bottom of the cupboard revealing a hidden cupboard.

"Whoa..." she whispered, taking out a large wooden chest, thinking Should I really open this? It was obviously secret, maybe Grandpapa would not want me to see this..

But then curiosity got the better of her and she opened the chest up, it was full of papers, and flicking through them she hummed, it seemed like lots of old passports under different names, but she didn't recognise any of them so they weren't family, maybe they were his friends? As she dove deeper she found pictures of her Grandpapa with different men, the ones she assumed the passports belonged to. What changed her mind was the certificates, stating that he was a certified rank 'A' for shooting, for infiltration...

Blinking a little bit, Senium reached the bottom of the case and gasped when she felt something cold and metal, pulling it out, it was without doubt a massive gun. Her mouth popped open and she looked at the file underneath it, opening it, Senium began to read, and she was boggled by what she found. Her grandpapa was...an assassin? What?! Eagerly reading the file, Senium hardly noticed the time passing, and, by the time it was tea time, she had read every bit of paper in the trunk.

And, she already had the beginnings of a very good idea.
