Queenie and Jacob push their way through to the front of the Aurors.
Jacob clutches Newt's case tightly in his hand as Queenie hugs Tina.
Newt walks over to Jacob ecstatic to get his case back,
"I figured somebody oughta keep an eye on this thing." Jacob says to a humble and happy Newt as he hands him his case.
The moment is broken by Madam Picquery,
"Thank you." She addresses the group as she stares up at broken roof of the subway station, pondering how much wreck their is to fix.
She looks back to the group and continues to speak,
"We owe you an apology, Mr. Scamander.... But the magical community is exposed! We cannot Obliviate an entire city. " She sounds defeated yet still stern.
Evelyn looks toward Newt, she smiles lightly watching as his face lights up with an idea.
"Actually, I think we can." He says a questionable look on Madam Picquery's face.
Newt has places his case wide-open underneath the huge hole in the subway roof as the others move out the way, watching him closely.
Suddenly the Thunderbird bursts out of the case feathers spreading out along with a cool wind,
The crowd backs away, Newt looks toward Evelyn and smiles seeing her face just as happy as his.
She's in absolute awe as she looks at Frank again, this time out in the open.
He flaps his powerful wings and hovers above them waiting for instructions.
Newt reaches out his arm, grabbing Evelyn's hand and guiding her over.
He reaches up to stroke Frank as Frank presses his beak lovingly into the him as they nuzzle each other affectionately.
He looks towards Evelyn and speaks,
"Do the same, he'll like you because I do."

Evelyn feels her face flush as she brings her hand up nervously and strokes the gorgeous creatures forehead lightly, he nuzzles in her hand and she can't help but let out a soft giggle in delight.
Newt watches happily as the crowd watches in awe.
He allows Frank to nuzzle into him again and says truthfully from the heart "I'll miss you too." before he takes Evelyn's hand and steps back with her.
He lets go and takes out a small vial of Swooping Evil venom from his pocket.
"You know what you've got to do." He says to Frank looking up at him as he throws the vial high as Frank cries out in agreement catching it in his beak and taking off out of the Subway roof.
Frank rises higher and higher flapping his wings as a storm of clouds and lighting swarm around him, the vial is crushed into the sky and the bright blue venom bursts out spreading through every last rain drop that begins to fall down upon New York.
Madam Picquery looks toward Newt questioning what he's done.
"They won't remember anything. That venom has incredibly powerful Obliviative properties." He says happily to her.
Madam Picquery nods impressed and walks toward him,
"We owe you a great debt Mr. Scamander." She pauses her face goes sterner.
"Now—get that case out of New York." She finishes.
"Yes, Madam President." Newt responds sheepishly looking down at his feet for a moment before walking over and picking up his case.
Madam Picquery begins to walk away along with the group of Aurors when she turns around abruptly looking towards Queenie.
"Is that No-Maj still here?" She says as a timid Jacob steps out from behind a worried Queenie.
"Obliviate him. There can be no exceptions." Madam Picquery says sharply eyeing Queenie, a look of anguish upon her face.

"I'm sorry, but even one witness-- you know the law. " She states uncomfortably looking at their distressed faces.
"I'll let you say goodbye." She says soon after and leaves.
Queenie grips Jacobs hand tightly tears welling up in her eyes as the others watch sadly unsure what to say.
Jacob takes a lead and goes up the steps of the subwat, Queenie close behind as the others follow.
Rain is still splashing down heavily, the streets now empty apart from the Aurors fixing up last minute touches to the once wrecked city.
Jacob has reached the top of the steps and stands looking out into the harsh rain.
Queenie doesn't let go of him not wanting him to move out into the street.
Jacob turns around to look at her.
"Hey. Hey, this is for the best." He says softly.
Newt reaches around for Evelyn's hand rubbing it affectionately, sadly knowing he'll soon have to say goodbye to her too when he returns to England.
"I was never even supposed to be here." Jacob says fighting back tears.
They all look toward him sadly, though Queenie the most.
"I was never supposed to know any of this. Everybody knows Newt only kept me around because..." Jacob pauses confused,
"Hey Newt, why did you keep me around?" He asks.
Newt takes a deep breathe as he collects the words in his head, expressing emotion to other humans has always been a difficulty.
"Because I like you, Because you're my friend and I'll never forget how you helped me." He says meaning every last word.
Jacob's face is overcome with emotion at Newt's answer as a croaky "Oh!" escapes his mouth.
Queenie rubs his arm in an attempt to cheer him up.
"I'll come with you. We'll go somewhere, we'll go anywhere!" She says pausing as she fights back tears.
"See, I ain't never gonna find anyone like—" She begins to say but Jacob interrupts.
"There's loads like me." He states looking into her eyes sadly.
"No, No, There's only one like you." Queenie chokes out painfully sad.
"I gotta go." Jacob says knowing he needs to be strong for her, he wipes his eyes and turns so he's now facing the rain.
"It's just like waking up, right?" He says a sad smile upon his face as he turns back to the group as they smile sadly back at him.
Looking at their faces as he moves, Jacob walks backwards into the rain, he looks up and spreads his arms out as huge droplets of water wash over his face and body.
Queenie creates a magical umbrella with her wand and steps out towards him.
She bravely moves in close, tenderly stroking Jacob's face before closing her eyes and leaning in gently kissing him.
Then it all happens at once, the sound of feet hit the steps behind them, a hand reaches out pushing Evelyn harshly into the rain as her hand is ripped out of Newts.
She falls to the ground with a thud as she feels harsh rain drip all over her face and before anyone has a chance to do a thing a man with a sharp face and slicked back grey hair walks out, a dark umbrella over his head.
And then all at once... just as quick as he came he disapparates Evelyn away.
