Newt Scamander Lost His Niffler {Again} (Part 13)

It was a calm Sunday morning and nothing was at all wrong in the world, (well until Newt went down to the basement). She left his bed, changed out of his pyjamas, put his shirt and trousers on then made his way downstairs. He made some jam on toast, took only one bite and finally made his way downstairs into the basement full of magical creatures.

As soon as he got to the bottom of the very large and steep stairs he noticed something, the Niffler cage was slightly open. 'Oh no, oh no, oh no.' he thought  as he approached the cage and counted how many were still inside. "One." He said out loud. "Only one?!" He paced the floor for a while until the other animals made noises to indicate they wanted their breakfast. He quickly filled the food bowls up of all his magical creatures and returned to pacing.

He walked with his hands on his cheeks contemplating every little thing. 'Did I leave the door open last night? Did Tina or Bunty leave it open by accident? Did one of the Bowtruckles pick the lock?' He thought about a dozen or more things before he heard a faint knock coming from upstairs. he rushed back up the large amount of stairs, and opened the door that led to the kitchen he was just in.

"Q-Queenie? Jacob? W-why are you here?" He said. He liked that they had visited him, but why would they want to just barge in on him so early in the morning?

"NEEEWWTT!" Queenie exclaimed then rushed over to him and wrapped him up in a big hug. "Me and Jocob wanted a little holiday and decided we'd come and visit you. Is this a bad time or something?"

"Erm... is Jacob ok?" Newt asked. Jacob looked like he had a concussion or something.

"Oh no, silly. He is just sleepy... the jet lag ya'know."

Newt didn't seem convinced.

"Anyway, how are things?"

"They were fine until this morning."

"OH MYYYY GOODNESSS? WHAT IN HEVENS HAS HAPPENED TO THOSE NIFFLERS?" Queenie used her Legilimency powers and read Newts mind.

"I went down this morning and their cage was slightly open..."

"Oh dear... isn't that a shame, Jacob?"

"MmMmMmMmMm..." Jacob made a little noise.

"Q-Queenie, are you sure that he is ok?"

"Of course he is. He is just a little sleepy, aren't you hunny?"

"Geeeeee!" Jacob made a little noise again.

"O-Ok..." Newt began. "Can you help at all?"

"Hmm... I guess so. Do you think they'll be in the local jewellery store again?"

"I suppose so, do you mind fetching them? I'll baby sit Jacob."

"How many should I look out for?"

"5."

"Oh ok. Bye bye, Jacob boo boo baby bear." Queenie baby talked him. Newt felt uncomfortable by this, but tried his best to ignore it. "I'm going to find Mr Scamander's little Nifflers, but I won't be long..." She kissed him then left.
