《Desire [Newt Scamander]》Niffler
Advertisement
The three disapparate to outside the building,
Jacob leads them along a deserted street, on either side of the street are expensive looking jewellery shops.
Newt goes ahead from them, scanning the shops for signs of any of his missing beasts.
The three continue along the street quietly until Newt breaks the silence. "I was watching you at dinner." he directs at Jacob.
"People like you, don't they Mr Kowalski." Newt softly says.
Jacob looks startled for a moment puzzled about what Newt says to him, "Oh..well i'm sure people like you too..huh?"
"No not really, i annoy people." Newt says but seems unconcerned about it.
Jacobs nods his head unsure of how to answer as they carry on down the street.
"What got you into baking?" Evelyn asks, she's alongside Newt and feels the warmth of his arm lightly brush hers from time to time as they walk.
"I'm dying working in the can factory, everyone's just wasting away." Jacob says a fed up tone laces his voice.
"You like canned food?" Jacob asks to which Evelyn and Newt both shake their heads as a no to his answer.
"I remember back at Hogwarts they would have huge feasts every night and it all tasted so amazing." Evelyn reminisces smiling a sad smile at the thought of the place she use to call home.
"Hogwarts was home, my favourite place i'd do anything to be back there again." Evelyn says softly.
"You went to Hogwarts?" Newt questions to which Jacob looks between the two confused but doesn't interrupt as he looks at the sadness on Evelyn's face.
"Hogwarts will be the only place i'll ever feel at home." Evelyn states trying her best to force a smile as she clears her throat.
"Anyway enough about that, my time at Hogwarts is a story for another day." She mutters.

"Back to the bakery why do you do it?" Evelyn questions much to Jacob's delight,
"I want to make pastries, you know to make people happy" Jacob answers as he keeps leading the way.
They turn on the pavement and head down around the corner of the street.
"So you didn't get your loan?" Evelyn asks remembering Queenie reading his mind earlier on.
"No i aint got collateral. Stayed in the army too long, i don't know."
They turn again "You fought in the war?" Newt questions Jacob to which Jacob looks at him puzzled.
"Everyone fought in the war, didn't you?"
Newt thinks for a bit "I worked mostly with dragons, eastern front." To which Evelyn lets out a small laugh at Jacob's expression at the word Dragon.
Newt aruptly stops, his eye catches a small jewel on top of a car bonnet, his eyes follow a trail of diamonds scattered along the pavement leading up to one of jewellery shops.
Newt carefully follows the trail Evelyn and Jacob watch from a distance as he approches the shop window. The Niffler is standing in the window attempting to trick Newt into thinking he's a jewellery holder. It almost works as Newt pasts him until he slowly walks back again staring at the Niffler with a look of amusement.
Suddenly the Niffler breaks off into a run as Newt mutters "Finestra" clmibing through the now open window. Newt frantically opens draws jumps onto tables, he knocks over various diamond necklaces as the Niffler scurries about.
It crawls over Newt's head and along the shelves trying it's best to not get caught.
Evelyn and Jacob watch in shock at the commotion.
Newt Jumps onto a desk trying to reach the Niffler who's now balancing on a chandelier, but as he reaches out he trips and soon they're both hanging from it.

Jacob nervously checks the streets worried over anyone will see what's going.
They both look at Newt in shock as the chandelier crashes to floor sending Newt and the Niffler against a set of shelves... it falls over crashing on the window a slight crack appears from the impact.
Jacob nervously sorts out the clasp on the Newt's case which has sprung open with a roar accompanied by it, whilst Evelyn walks over to Newt and the Niffler.
Suddenly the crack begins to spread across the window and before Evelyn has a chance to move Newt crashes down falling on top of her as shard of glass falls on them cutting the side of her forehead.
Newt who is in a pursuit of catching the Niffler stands up running after it shouting "Accio!" as the Niffler is pulled towards him. Evelyn stays on the ground to shocked to stand up again, the Niffler swings round a pole and gets stuck in a window that Newt has turned to jelly.
Newt pulls the Niffler from the window putting him in the inside of he coat at the sound of police sirens. "One down two to go" He mutters as the police car pulls up.
Policeman run out holding guns up at Newt and Jacob who have bit of jewellery hanging off various parts of there clothes. "They went that way officer" Jacob attempts to save themselves.
"Hands up!" The officer shouts.
The policemen confusingly look at Niffler who has poked his head out of Newt's coat. "What the hell is that?" one of them demands but Newt gently pushes him back in his coat.
Jacob however looks terrified for to the side of them a lion stands on the street slowly stepping towards them. "Lion.." He whispers frightened as the police officers look over at the lion, terrified and shocked as they grip their guns tighter in their hands.
"You know New York is turning out to be considerably more interesting than i thought" Newt smiles widely before reaching down grabbing Evelyn, from by the hand, she had been forgetten about in the commotion.
They arrive in Central Park the police sirens can still be heard, Jacob sits down on a nearby bench calming himself down. Newt looks at Evelyn a worried look crosses his face as he see's the cut on the side of her forehead.
He puts the Niffler into the case before clasping it shut. He reaches up and and dabs away at the cut on her face with his sleeve.
"I'm ever so sorry, i feel terrible it's just that bloody Niffler he-" Newt begins to apologise but Evelyn interupts a smile on her face.
"It's okay, it was rather entertaining to watch" Newt looks relieved that she's not annoyed as he lighly continues to dab the cut.
He then looks at her... properly looks at her, a look that makes Evelyn's face heat up with a slight blush.
He leans towards her, she feels the warmth of his breath against her face causing her cheeks to heat up even more. Newt lightly presses his lips to the cut as Evelyn closes her eyes enduring the sweet moment.

Saga of Fallen Kings, Book I: The Revenant Prince
The Philosopher King once conquered the known world, his power seemingly unlimited and his armies inexhaustible. Since that time his might has slowly unravelled, and his once steadfast empire has begun to crack, splinter and devour itself. In the isolated Southern Realms, where even magic has abandoned them, none of that matters. For years it has been filled with warring kingdoms, where as many kings die to the blade as to old age, and constant battles tear apart the land. When one such kingdom invades its old enemy, the King and his heir, Prince Caden, are killed. Unable to accept the loss of his family Prince Arian is broken, and when the Philosopher King stretches out his hand in aid, Arian takes it without a second thought. When Caden wakes from death, he's different. His eyes and soul have changed, and he finds a world filled with friends who no longer trust he's even human. Suddenly thrust onto the throne and indebted to the Philosopher King, Caden has no choice but to keep going - he must finish what his father started, and try to survive the machinations of the figure who now owns his fealty. Meanwhile something beyond death stirs for him, desiring nothing more than to drag him back into its embrace. Author's Note: This story used to be known as "A King of his Own", but after some consideration I have decided to rebrand it. The first reason is that I was growing increasingly dissatisfied with the title. The second is that I have come increasingly to view this story as a 'saga' containing multiple 'books' rather than one long, continuous publication, and as I did so I realized that as I was quickly getting to a point in the story where I wanted the first 'book' to end. This doesn't mean I'm going back on the things I said below - they're just going to continue in the next book of the Saga of Fallen Kings. :) Also, be aware that I do plan to edit this at some point. Though I take care to squash out any obvious errors when I proof-read, and do simple edits in that process, at some point I'm almost certainly going to do large edits that might significantly change parts of the story. Old author's notes: This started as a completely random writing session. There was no purpose or direction, but as I kept typing an entire world began to form in my mind that I knew I had to write about. My plan is to turn this story into a veritable medieval fantasy epic that spans an entire world, follows multiple character and storylines, and takes place over many years. The story has quite a grounded, almost 'realistic' start, but many more fantastical elements will be introduced, expanded upon and become central to the narrative. I have ideas for this story that make me genuinely excited and I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy writing it, and join me on what will hopefully become a truly massive fantasy epic. If you do enjoy this story please consider following, rating and leaving a review. I'm also happy to answer any questions or comments you have.
