being shoved and pushed around as she entered the bank. And boy, she was so close to fighting someone. The only thing keeping her sane was finding her bracelet.
She walked around the bank, avoiding every worker that tried to come up to her, pretending she was deaf. Her eyes scanned the crowd, since she was quite tall at a whopping height of five feet and ten inches.
Teddy would come off as intimidating to most people due to her stern look when she was bored. You could say she had a resting bitch face.
She pushed past people until she saw the chubby man, which she needs the name of because she was tired of labeling him, walk out of a room and said, "Mr. English Guy! I think your egg is hatching." Teddy's eyes flickered at the egg in his hand and then the Brit.
She ran over to the Brit and pulled him close by the collar, purposefully getting close to his face. "Where the hell is my bracelet?" She sneered.
Teddy watched him cower back, but look at the guy behind her and quickly pull out a stick. It's a wand, he's a fricken wizard! Teddy thought to herself.
Suddenly the chubby man was being pulled towards the Brit and Teddy. They were apparted into a cramped stairway, causing Teddy to land in between them.
"You idiot!" She scowled. He is going to get in so much trouble.
The sound of squawking filled the tiny area. Teddy's eyes widen as she saw the egg beginning to hatch. The British man put his wand in between his teeth and carefully took the egg from the other man. She watched as the egg began to break and stared in awe.
"Holy crap-" Teddy pushed past them and stood in front of them, her eyes directed on the egg.

The trio looks at each other and then the Brit begins to walk down the stairs, with Teddy hot on his trail.
"Hey! Who the hell are you?" She grabs his shoulder.
"Newt. Newt Scamander." He replies and then places his suitcase down, opening it and begins to.... talk with it?
"And who are you?" Newt asks as he puts the egg into the case, confusing written over Teddy's face.
"Teddy Graves." She answers and walks over, causing Newt to quickly close his suitcase.
"What's in that case, hm Mr. Scamander?" Teddy crossed her arms over her chest and saw the chubby man from earlier walk down the stairs, mumbling to himself.
"Hey, you. What's your name?" She nods her head at the chubby man.
"Jacob Kowalski." He said in a drowsy state.
Teddy turns around after hearing a the sound of gears turning and finds Newt with his wand out, opening the vault.
"Are you crazy?!" She scolded, but was ignored as Newt shot a spell at a banker.
"Oh god, you're trying to get yourself exposed?" She followed after him as he went inside the vault and found the furry creature from earlier.
"Really?" Newt looks at the creature and sighs.
Teddy watched him grab the creature before it could leave and immediately turned it upside down. She gasped in amazement as assortments of gold, jewels and anything shiny fell out of the creature.
Her eyes widened as she saw a familiar silver chain in the pile. She swooped down and took it before glaring at the creature who was desperately trying to keep all of its precious treasures inside. Teddy felt her heart steady as she slipped the bracelet onto her wrist. She never lost it after all.

As she turned around she found Jacob with his hands up. Guards held guns pointed at the trio. Jacob kept yelling "Don't shoot!" over and over again until they were apparted once again.
This time Teddy was slammed against and wall, her head hitting the bricks harshly. She was too busy trying to regain her balance to notice what was happening around her. As she came back into reality Jacob was gone and Newt was panting.
"You sir, are screwed." Teddy looked at him and gave him a slight smirk. She pushed aside some fallen hair from her face and looked at him once again before regaining he posture and turned the corner, walking away.
Tina walked past Teddy and gave her a look before grabbing onto her arm, as well as Newt's. Tina apparted them for the third time that day.
"Who are you?" Tina asks Newt as they apparted in an alleyway. Teddy was slammed once again into another wall, causing her to groan.
"Newt Scamander, meet Tina Goldstein." Teddy introduces them to each other as she reaches into her pocket until she finds her pocket knife and swiftly opens it, holding it to Newt's neck.
"Now let's cut this short shall we? What the hell was in your case and why did it steal my bracelet?"
"Teddy." Tina touches the aggravated women's shoulder, causing Teddy to glare at Tina and wonder why she is stopping her. Teddy looked at Newt and saw how terrified he was of her and her knife. But mostly her knife.
Teddy moved back and closed her pocket knife, continuing to glare at Newt.
"What Teddy is trying to say is..."
"It was a Niffler." Newt cut Tina off and looked at the ground, scared to even make eye contact with Teddy.
"What were you doing with that thing on the loose?" Tina asks, as confused and worried as Teddy, but less knifey about it. Teddy was leaned against the wall across from Newt, playing with the pocket knife in hand as she listened in.
"Well, you see... it kind of got out of my bag." Newt tries to explain, but is feeling very uncomfortable with Teddy and her knife.
"Yeah, no kidding." Teddy scoffed.
"You couldn't have chosen and no worse time to let that thing loose?" Tina scolded, causing Teddy to look over at her friend with a confused look on her face.
"You didn't answer my question on why that- that Niffler thing took my bracelet." Teddy glanced at Newt before looking down at the silver chain.
"He likes anything shiny. I'm-I'm deeply sorry for him taking your bracelet." Newt apologizes half heartedly.
"Hmpf." Teddy leaned back onto the brick wall and drone out Tina scolding Newt.
"That's it, you've broken Section 3A, I'm taking you two in." Tina grabbed onto both of their arms.
"Tina, no." Teddy pleaded as she pushed herself away from Tina.
"I'm sorry, but you were a witness."
"Because his Niffler thing stole my bracelet! My mother's bracelet, Teens!" Teddy looked at her best friend with her eyes wide, worried about how her father will react to this. Newt stood there and began to feel bad for what happened.
"I'm sorry." And with that, Teddy was apparted for the fourth time that day.

The Merchant Prince Book 1: Returning Home
Enter a world of deceit and assassins. Augustus DeCastellian is a member of a wealthy merchant family, with ports all over the known world. He is sent on a voyage to new lands to open trade routes, but when he returns he will need to fight, using his tools of manipulation and cunning, for what he is owed.Author's note: This story is somewhat slow-paced, especially in comparison to the norm on Royal Road. The first three chapters act almost as a prologue, to give you a feel for what the rest of the story will be like. So, I suggest new readers try to get to the end of chapter 3 before deciding if this story is for them.A few of my reviews have said that this story is abnormal for Royal Road. I agree with that sentiment, at least based on what I've read on the site. It was just an idea that was in my head, that I began trying to write once my hobbies were cancelled due to the virus. I found Royal Road after I started writing it. Honestly, it's probably not even tailored for the web-novel format. But it's the story I wanted to tell. Discord: https://discord.gg/sk63gep

The Magitons
Book 3 of the Universe Series This novel continues the adventure from the previous novel, Ocean of Dreams. Each novel is meant to stand alone. Widhbo ( pronounced "wee bow") is a MC who will be in each of the six novels in the main series. The starship Sora had been hurtling through space using its FTL propulsion system toward the Dezba star system for over a decade since leaving the planet Beldora of the Hellsaxe system. The Sora had crash landed on Beldora over a century earlier carrying a couple of aliens from another dimension. The ship came from the Borrugal Realm, a band world associated with what was known as the Tor Galaxy, what we call the Milky Way. Human life on Beldora was never the same. Under the influence of the alien known as Widhbo, Beldora was catapulted from the steam age to the space age. The majority of the scientific advances on Beldora were attributed to the leadership of a brilliant man, Jejliard Castonea, who was secretly manipulated by the alien, Widhbo. When rapid advances in technology inadvertently led to a nuclear war, Jejliard decided to evacuate his family, friends and co-workers on the Sora. The plan was to find a new habitable planet and rebuild civilization until they could safely return home. Much to his despair, Jejliard’s family and friends opted to stay on Beldora to ride out the war underground. Even the other alien, Gengor, stayed behind. Borrowing technology stored in the archives of the Sora, Widhbo managed to transfer the personalities of those staying on the planet into digital storage units known as magitons which could survive indefinitely in cold, sterile space. Living crew members who elected to stay on board the Sora were also uploaded to ensure immortality for everyone in case their life support systems failed en route. Widhbo sought to design a cyber paradise for everyone inside their virtual worlds, but things never go as planned where Widhbo is concerned.

El's Revenge
“Revenge is not for the dead- we, as the living, take revenge to relieve the burden we feel,” I whispered into the air. “Salvation for the people who suffered because of you,” I watched as the city burned in the flames. “Salvation for the people like me, who believed in the proclaimed heroes when in reality they were the devils.” I smiled faintly as the ‘holy land’ of those ‘saints’ was destroyed. I heard rustling sounds as Charlotte came to stand next to me, grabbing my hand. “El, are we the bad guys?” If I was still the same as I was before, I might’ve broken down and started crying. Now, it was different. “A villain is just another victim. They cry and mourn, it’s just that no one heard, leading them into madness. It’s one of the reasons why we know the most, but care the least.” I took a deep breath. “We may be the bad guys in other peoples’ eyes, but in my story, we’re the heroes.” Charlotte took in my words for a while and pondered, before nodding in agreement. “As children, we loved the heroes, as adults we understand the villains.” I looked at her and bonked her on the head, earning an angry glare from her. “Hey! You’re barely an adult yourself you know,” she grumbled. I laughed and ruffled her hair, before countering her. “At least I’m not 12. You can’t even be considered a teenager at that age.” After that, we silently watched the flames ravage the land, before leaving.
