《Desire [Newt Scamander]》Nothing to lose

{I'm super sleepy}
-
A while later Two women in white clothes come and escort Newt, Tina and Evelyn down a dark basement and away from their cell.
Newt turns back looking at Jacob who's been left behind.
"It was good to make your acquaintance, Jacob, and I hope you get your bakery."
Jacob looks scared and clutches onto the bars of the cell with one hand as he waves sadly with the other.
Newt reaches out to hold Evelyn's hand but is pushed away by one of the ladies, much to his dismay.
They enter a small room, it's windowless and plain with black walls.
Newt is moved to sit at a desk a file open in front of him as Grave sits opposite.
Tina and Evelyn stand against the wall the women keeping a hold of them firmly.
"You're an interesting man, Mr Scamander." Graves says looking straight at Newt.
"Mr Graves-" Tina starts to say stepping forward slightly. Mr Graves holds a finger to his lips in annoyance as Tina steps back again.
Graves browses over the file on the desk and looks back up at a Newt.
"You were thrown out of Hogwarts for endangering human life." Graves states reading from the file.
Evelyn suddenly remembers why she thought Newt's name was familiar. She never met him but everyone knew about this incident.
"That was an accident!" Newt exclaims defensively.
"With a beast." Grave continues ignoring Newt's statement.
"Yet one of your teachers argued strong against you expulsion. Now, what makes Albus Dumbledore so fond of you?" Graves questions as Evelyn feels a slight tweak of happiness at the name of her favourite transfiguration teacher.
Although this happiness doesn't last more than a few seconds given the situation.
"I really couldn't say." Newt answers looking at the desk intently.
"So were the incidents you've caused with your creatures now, just an accident?" Graves asks suspiciously.

"Why would I do it deliberately?" Newt responds confused.
"To expose wizard-kind. To provoke war between the magical and non magical worlds." Graves states rather obviously.
"Mass slaughtered for the greater good, you mean?" Newt says barely audible.
Graves nods to and Newt begins to speak again.
"I'm not one of Grindelwald's fanatics, Mr Graves. Neither are Evelyn or Tina."
"Well I can't speak for Tina, but Evelyn's parents are rather close with Grindelwald aren't they?" He looks at Evelyn now and she can almost see a slight smirk on his face.
"I'm. Not. My. Parents." Evelyn answers firmly surprising herself with this new found confidence.
"We'll see." Grave answers bluntly.
"I wonder what can you tell me about this?" Grave asks now talking to Newt again.
Grave raises a hand and the Obscurus from Newts case comes forward, floating just above the desk hissing and swirling.
Evelyn can feel her heart thudding in fear just from its presence.
Grave looks utterly fascinated as the Obscurus swirls faster due to the close proximity.
Newt turns round looking at Tina who is in utter disbelief.
"It's an Obscurus, but it's not what you think. It's been deprecated from the Sudanese girl when I tried to save her."
Evelyn's heart jolts at his pained voice, at the mention of the poor girl.
"I wanted to study it. But it cannot survive, it can't hurt anyone." Newt tries to explain himself.
"Useless without the host then." Grave states as anger begins to boil within Newt.
"Useless? Useless?? That is a parasitical magical force that killed a child! What can it be used for?" Newt states pulling on the ends of his hair lightly in frustration.
Graves stands.
"Miss Lois you have broken your contract, this a great violation to both us in MACUSA and in the Ministry of Magic."
Grave looks at Evelyn, who can feel her heart beating even more rapidly in fear.

"Mr Scamander, your brought a Obscurus into the city of New York in the hope of causing mass disruption, breaking the Statute of Secrecy and tracking the magical world."
Newt looks at Grave in shock.
"You know that can't hurt anyone!" Newt responds a look of utter disbelief on his face.
"Miss Lois, you claim to be hiding from your family but you fool no one. You're here as a spy for the dark wizard Grindelwald." Graves says the worst he possibly can.
Newt and Tina know he's lying, even the two ladies know he's lying but this doesn't stop what he does next.
"Miss Evelyn Artois Lois you are sentenced to death."
Evelyn feels tears in her eyes as she feels her throat closing up in shock.
Tina looks distraught, her hand shaking by her side.
"No! Please no don't you dare!" Newts shouting now.
"You can't do this! She's done nothing wrong! I won't let you-" Newt says a frantic look on his face as the lady Evelyn is next to holds a wand to her neck.
Tear are rolling down her cheeks as she whimpers slightly in shock.
"You Mr Scamander are guilty of treasonous betrayal of your fellow wizards." Graves pauses running his hand over his forehead.
"Miss Goldstein and yourself are sentenced to death as well." Grave stands and Tina starts to look at him in shock her hands shaking violently by her sides in shock.
"No!" Newt cries.
"Kill the girls first. " Graves instructs the two ladies.
"I will inform Madam Picquery." Graves says then proceeds to walk out the room leaving them.
One lady takes a hold of Newt and Tina, whilst the other takes a hold of Evelyn.
All three are in too much shock to speak, that's until the lady holding Evelyn is instructed to take her to a different room.
"No! I will not be separated from her." Newt pleads frantically struggling to reach Evelyn.
"I'm sorry Mr Scamander, it's just they way things are." The lady responds.
"You can say goodbye." She then adds sympathetically, earning a glare from her partner.
The ladies let go of them still holding out their wands.
Newt places his hands on either side of Evelyn's face, looking into her glossy eyes as tears fall down her freckled cheeks.
"I'm so-so sor- sorry. You d-don't deserve this" Evelyn manages to say through her frantic breaths.
"Don't be sorry Evelyn." He strokes away fallen tears with his thumb, his hands still on her face.
He then does the unexpected an impulse decision really, especially for a girl he's known barely over 24 hours.
People do what their hearts desire most before death, he has nothing to lose.
He lightly grips the side of her head pressing his lips against hers, tears falling down his cheeks.
She endures his warm embrace for the last time.
It's an urgent kiss, one of two people who never got to begin their journey.
One of a lost boy in love with fantastic creatures, and one of a girl afraid and tormented by bad blood.
Then just like that they're being pulled away, she grasps his hand in fear to which squeezes it tightly.
"I'm so sorry." Is all Newt says as their hands are broken apart.
No one speaks a word.
All that can be heard is footsteps as tears fall lightly down Evelyn's cheeks.
As she watches them disappear from her sight.

Well that's depressing. Goodnight guys I'm so sleepy, comment what you think? What did you think of the kiss? Was it too soon or did it go well? Hehe bysie bye -C x

Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero (Update 09/19/21)
(Updated 09/19/21) Hello and welcome. If you made it this far and the book title sounds interesting, I'm hoping you'll read a few chapters. Here's a sample from chapter 1 of "Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero."Slowly starting to wake up, I become aware. It's like coming out of a fog.Head hurts.Body hurts.There's a conversation in the room. This isn't my bed. Someone is touching my arm. I crack my eyes to look. She doesn't notice. Is she praying for me? Her hands do feel good…do feel... Slipping back unconscious, my eyes slowly close. I didn't notice the soft green glow under Jenn’s hands.*******************"It does look like he saved them or at least stalled them long enough for us to get there." says the man dressed more like a park ranger than an officer of the law. "I did think he was part of it at first" he continues "but the evidence shows he wasn't there and they were certainly fighting on that back road where we found them""I don't care who he is." says a woman as she enters the room. "He saved and protected my Jenn. I will make sure there's not a mark or a scar on him before he leaves". As she continues the few steps over to the men speaking, even though dressed simply in common clothes, there is no doubt the race of elves is in her heritage. The grace and lines of her form. The elegance and lightness of her step. She glances at her daughter, still watching over the young man in the bed. "Do we know who he is yet?" she asks no one in particular."Not yet dear" a man in a white coat responds. A handsome middle-aged man. Fit, but not that of a fighter or ranger. "I asked Talon to bring another identification stone with him. I was hoping ours was just broke, but it's reading the same.""What do you think is wrong?" Talon asks."I'm thinking we just have to wait until he recovers. I have heard of cases where the stone didn't work. Powerful spells can hide or wipe a person clean. I doubt he's a spy or a criminal. Spells like that are just too high level if, they're used at all. My best guess is, there is just some disconnect with him being unconscious. When he wakes, we can ask him or use the stone again then."I find myself waking up in a hospital bed. The attending Doctor finds it odd that he cannot identify my class. An Officer says I’m a Hero for saving a girl from being kidnapped, but he’s asking too many questions for my liking. I know an accusing tone when I hear it. I don’t remember any of it and I need to find my way home.Author’s notes. Original work. First draft and update of chapters 1-16. Inspired by various fantasy games and books. Written with a focus on character development and interaction. Combat, progression, leveling, classes, but no numbers or stats. I’ll try to keep the language clean, PG-13, no smut. I’m in the US, writing in English. Almost fifty chapters are completed as I pen this introduction. I intend to complete this story or at least bring it to a proper ending. I have a destination in mind. I find as I write, doors and ideas open, while others close and are discarded. The tentative release schedule will be once a week. I'm new to creating. My apologies now while I learn. I have not settled on a book cover or artwork, still looking for something that fits. Registered & Protected #20VjeKDv2U6nynW6

Letters from a Dying World
Times historic are often penned after the fact in the lifeblood of the pitiful, forgotten masses. That roiling, uncountable crush of humanity, they who held the pikes and they who threw down the tyrants. Their veins opened by gazes academic, sharp and cruel, and pecked away at with quills, written out of their own story. The Second Dark Crusade was a time of such poignancy. A time when the light of man waned and flickered, choking in the acrid smoke of its own inadequacy. As befitting of such an age it has been covered more than a capital whore, and so I attempt not to tell that story again. That story of dull, unfeeling analysis. Neither here will you find the browbeating, propagandistic screeds so common in the hands of men, the light of youth still burning behind their eyes. Nay, here I shall attempt to cover fresh ground, not tread on the grave dirt of long dead authors. Here I shall attempt to tell the story of the small lives caught, unbeknownst to them, in the great and torrential downpour that we now call history. Here lies the true story of The Second Crusade. - Loremaster Ip'Qal
