Not Just An Animal (Newt Scamander x Reader)

Chapter 2 - page 4 'Jacob Kowalski'

As you wipe the tears away, you reply to Newt with a perplexing thought. You didn't know what happened. Newt ponders for a minute before deciding to change plans a little. "H-how would you like t-to help me release F-frank into the wild a-again..?" he asked. You think about it, knowing you won't go 'home' any time soon, and then swiftly say "I w-wouldn't mind.."; at this comment, Newt's face lights up as he tells you to wait in the main shack of the case, himself moving up and out of the case. 

Hearing the click of the clasps, you sit down on one of the benches, bringing your large feathered wings around yourself to wait. Brushing your fingers through your wings, you seem to find small crystals of ice embedded within the feathers, to which you then have an idea.. You see if you can use magic like a witch; softly brushing your palms against the feathers, they freeze over quickly, leaving you with icy wings, and a faint urge show Newt your new popsicle wings, that which, surprisingly, still move just as freely, if not more, than without. 

You spend a few what seems like hours to you, feeling the cool feathers on your Wingspan, admiring the new trick you learned.. 

Your experimental fun, however, is cut short by the case being opened suddenly, letting a few creatures out of it, and you are taken with them, propelled quickly up and out. Landing upright a little dazed, you turn to see a strange man in his apartment, about to be bitten by something..? 

Thinking fast, you whip your tail quickly, the tip flying forward and smacking the creature back into the case which you lock with your tail too, inhaling deeply as your tail and wings return to their places behind you. 

Unfortunately, you weren't fast enough to stop the bite, as you could see it on the man's neck, to which you scorn at. You move slowly towards the man now, flinching as you look at the bite closer; you had no idea what to do, and the apartment was utterly demolished by the creatures that escaped.. 

You think of Newt now.. Where was he, how did this man get his case? What if you're in danger? As you think more, you find it more apt to take Newt's case in one hand and hide behind what walls are left, peering around for an exit. 

Though as you look, you see some papers for a bank loan on a table, looking closer to see then the underlying signatures. "Jacob Kowalski". Seemingly this would be the man hyperventilating in the opposite room to you now. 

Sighing softly, you know you don't want to abandon the man, and prepare to walk into the room once more.
