left, Teddy found herself playing with some of the creatures. She didn't know what they were sadly, but she gave them names out of boredom. She even named the Occamy's, which was fucking hard because they kept biting her finger when she pointed at them.
At the moment she was with Frank once again. This time not in tears and smoking, but just leaning against the Thunderbird. Petting his wings and humming softly. Surprisingly the Thunderbird was kind and allowed Teddy to lean on him and pet him.
For a moment Teddy began to think about her father and how furious he's going to be. She bit her bottom lip at the thought of his angry face yelling at her when she had to go home. She gave the Thunderbird one last pat before standing up.
She's over stayed with Newt and had to go home. It was bound to happen anyway and Teddy might as well get it over with. As she reached the room where Newt flung one of his creatures at her, Newt and Jacob came rushing down the stairs.
"Goodness gracious-" Teddy gets pushed back by Jacob on accident and bumps into Newt's work table.
"Terribly sorry, Teddy, did you see one of my creatures enter? It's large like an-"
Teddy laughed quietly and nodded, cutting the magizoologist off. "Yes, the elephant looking one. Along with your Niffler thing."
"Thank goodness." Newt sighed out of relief. "Oh uh, and here." He hands her the packet of death of sticks also known as cigarettes.
"Keep them, I don't need those anymore." She shrugs.
"Are you... are you sure?"
"Definitely."
Teddy climbed up the ladder and was about to open the top of it, there was a knock on the top. Newt was saddened that she was just going to leave, but confused on the knocking noise. He softly tugged on Teddy's leg, so she'd come down as he went up.

When he opened the top he was surprised. The MACUSA were watching in, breaking out in small whispers as Madame President watched in horror. Newt went back down quickly, muttering for Jacob and Teddy to come with him. As they all got out, Teddy gazed the crowd until she found an unhappy face. Her father.
"Graves, what is your daughter doing in this?"
"Isn't that Theodora Graves?!"
"What is she doing with Newt Scamander?"
Teddy droned everyone out and sighed, she looked around meeting disgusted looks from witches and wizards. Her gaze dropped to the ground, feeling unwelcomed.
"Oblivate her! She doesn't even have her magic!" A voice yelled over Madame President, causing Teddy to wince.
Newt glanced at her, furrowing his eyebrows in confusion. He always wondered where Teddy's wand was and why she never used a spell instead of a potion for him. How did she loose her magic?
"Merlin...." Teddy muttered as she looked up at the deceased body of Senetor, Henry Shaw that floated in the air. A soft gasp left her lips as her eyes scanned the markings in the body.
"Familiar, Miss. Graves? I understand your mother knew a lot about creatures. Did any of Mr. Scamander's creatures do this?" Madame President asked Teddy. Everyone focused on the girl, especially her own father.
"No creature did this, ma'am. Look at the marks." Teddy paused and glanced at Newt, wanting him to continue.
"That was an Obscurus." He finished as the crowd gasped.
Percival Graves stood up and Teddy was pulled towards her father. The words of witches and wizards were droned out as she felt her father grip her wrist.
"Dad hey. Look, I know this looks very bad-"
"Shut up."
Teddy's lips sealed shut as she heard Madame President order, "Impound that case, Graves!" The case flying towards her father's side.

"No!" Teddy grasped the case and then felt something hard hit her cheek.
The world around her went in slow motion. She slowly pressed her fingers against the burning skin. Percival never laid a hand on his daughter and Teddy knew that for a fact. This.... This wasn't her father, but a monster.
A force pushed Teddy to her knees as she let out a chocked sob. She saw Newt, Jacob and Tina in the same conditions as her. She knew Tina had something with this, causing Teddy to grow sadder.
"Don't hurt those creatures." She heard Newt beg. "Please, you don't understand, nothing in there is dangerous, nothing."
Teddy felt a hand on her shoulder and looked at her father pleadingly. "Dad-"
"You're not my daughter. You're a disgrace to this family's name." Percival spits out in disgust.
"Well be the judges about that. Take them to the cells." Madame President ordered the guards behind them.
Teddy was pulled to her feet as tears stained her cheeks. Each words that came from her father was a dagger to her heart.
"Please! There is nothing in there that can hurt you! Please, don't hurt them!" Teddy heard Newt plea as the guards tried to pull them out of the room.
Teddy struggled against them. She hit her guard in the face with the back of her head and kicked him in the knee. Everyone in the room gasped. Teddy punched a guard in the throat that was trying to contain her and tried to run towards Newt's case.
Tina, Jacob and Newt watched in astonishment. Teddy ducked from a spell that was thrown at her, her eyes piercing at her fathers. Suddenly she felt her body sting and she let out a loud yell. She lunged forward, her face kissing the ground as she tried to move her limbs, but couldn't.
She let out a desperate groan as her eyes slowly began to shut. Her body was pulled up by multiple guards. Before she completely passed out, she heard a desperate yell from Newt.
"Leave her alone!" He struggled against the guard as he was pulled out of the room.
Percival Graves watched as they began to take away his daughters unconscious body. He lowered his wand and gripped the brown case tightly, a sinister smirk falling on his lips.

Hazelsong: A LitRPG Novel
Release Schedule: I will be moving to a set release schedule as of 1/1/2022. A new chapter will be released every Saturday at Noon EST. If I have time that week for a second chapter, I will leave a note on the Saturday chapter and post the second chapter on Sunday at Noon EST. An up to date character sheet for the MC Erik will also be posted on Sundays at 12:15 PM. If life happens and I am for some reason unable to write that week, I will post a blank chapter giving you an update on where I am with my writing. Saturday Noon EST: First weekly chapter Sunday Noon EST: Second weekly chapter (if I have the time) Sunday 12:15 EST: Updated character sheet Synopsis: Years after surviving a deadly accident, Erik struggles to come to terms with his painful disability. When offered the chance to playtest the world's first full immersion VRMMO, he wants nothing more than to retreat back into his secluded life, until he learns what Hazelsong really offers. An escape from the pain. Hazelsong is a world of magic and adventure, a place where friendships are formed, loot is won, and glory and fame are there for the taking. While the threats feel real and the stakes are always high, there is only one thing Erik is really in danger of. Forgetting which world is actually real. Story Themes: Hazelsong is a LitRPG novel that not only explores the fictional world of a realistic online fantasy realm but the life of a man suffering in silence from chronic pain and PTSD due to a significant physical injury and disability. Mental health is an important subject and we all know at least one person in our lives who has or is dealing with some form of mental illness. I plan on putting my best effort forward to represent these illnesses in a fair and accurate manner. Not as a cheap plot device to help make the protagonist more unique, but to help paint an accurate picture for those of us who have been lucky enough to not have to suffer in silence. About the Author: I am Ash Durra, general video game nerd and a connoisseur of fantasy and sci-fi of all shapes and sizes. Needless to say, I am not a professional author (B.S. and M.S. in Education, 8 years teaching). After really getting into LitRPG novels over the past several years, I found my way to Royal Road, which has inspired me to use my spare time to begin writing a story of my own creation. As this is a hobby, I am not writing and posting chapters on any kind of specific schedule at the moment, though my goal is to post on average 1-2 chapters a week. I am incredibly excited to share this story with others as I write it, and I look forward to any constructive feedback about how I can improve in my writing.

8 143Scholar of the Fog
Leaving a trail of blood as he climbed up a hill, his limbs felt like lead. He was gasping too, his lungs burning with every step he took. It felt like a bundle of broken glass was scraping away the inner walls of his flesh. He was dying, obvious to both him and his pursuers. And it would not be long till he dropped dead as he bled away. If not, the people chasing him would surely finished what they had came for. It was as if the Gods themselves had already predestined his fate. He took one step forward and stood at the peak of the hill. He let his legs rest as he could barely go on. Heaving deep breaths, he could hear sneering voices and shouts behind him. They were close, and the grim realization stoked the embers of his most primal fear. He did not want to die. He had dreams, like any other youth. There was glory to be had in this world. He wanted to learn more of life, and lived through its motions. He wanted to live. He swept his gaze, and across him was a spanning forest of old. With a glint in his eyes, and jaws clenched, he decided to gamble with all he had. He was dying, and by now, it did not matter where his grave was. He ran down the hill, and stopped where the plains and the forest met. His eyes swept about the trees, and he could feel an instinctual urge to drag himself away. He knew what this forest was, and here, he would find his salvation. Or his doom. The voices behind him grew closer, and among the noise was the faint clanging of steel. Gritting his teeth, he ousted all the will he had from the depths of his soul and stepped forth into the forest. Damned he be by the Gods if they wanted him dead. -new synopsis 10/6/2016 ---------- A new chapter would be released every friday. And the quality of writing should improve each time, hopefully. Another important thing to mention is how the story as of now, is only a bedrock for a massive world if it ever gets there. (CH18) And if possible, reviews are very much appreciated. ---------- For the ones who are interested in the old synopsis: With one foot in the grave, he ran away for that little bit of hope. Exhausted and bleeding, it was only a matter of time until he passed out. By then, his fate would be sealed and he would be no more. Thus, he had to make a decision that might just save his life. It was a gamble, he knew, but he had no He ran into the forbidden forest where no man had ever come back. He headed within, intending to scare his pursuers away. But they persisted in their chase, hounding him down until he was forced to take a step of no return. There, in the darkest depths of the forest, was the ghastly fog and behind him where men who wanted his head. Left with nothing else, he stepped forth and crossed the boundary of the living and the dead. Henceforth, his fate was forever changed. No longer just a scholar, but something more…
