After swiftly running down the stairs and out the door. Newt Grabs me gently by the shoulders, easing me into an alley. He stops me, his eyes searching my face "are you sure you're quite alright Y/N". He says, narrowing his eyes. He raises his hand to my forehead brushing his finger done my temple, which I can feel bruising already. "Yes yes I'm sure Mr Scamander I'll be fine. My head is just a little fuzzy". That was a fat lie. I'd been doing my best but my head was in immense pain, like a nail was being hammered into my head.

"Y/N, maybe you should you go in the case and rest" he says with a tight smile. Removing his hand and dropping it by his side, flexing it. And as much as my body wanted to accept his offer, my mind refused. " aha Thank you Mr Scamander but honestly I'm fine...really" I say as his brow creases with concern. I stare at his hand flexing to which he raises his other hand lifting my chin to re-direct my eyes to focus on his. "I know I can't control you Y/N but please be careful". I'm still in a trance that it takes me a few seconds to register what he's said and conjure a response "I will be...Now let's go get that case Mr Scamander!" I say trying to force for enthusiasm into my voice.

We've managed to Locate Mr Kowalski In his apartment; after hearing word of a strange "gas leak" . I'm silently approaching him from behind while Mr Scamander yells " Hey! Mr Kowalski-." We both stop dead at a rather unconscious Mr Kowalski on the floor, while Mr Scamander checks his pulse, I'm searching the room. "Uh oh...He's been bitten by a Murtlay...and seems to have taken a rather Nasty reaction to it". I turn my head and crouch beside him, examining the bite " I guess we should bring him in for surveillance and treatment" I say rather annoyed at how this idiot managed to let loose a creature and get himself bitten in the process. "Yes, I suppose you are right...would you mind opening the case Y/N". I sense something moving at the rear of my vision...I rapidly turn and catch the Muray by its
tail and quickly drop it into the case. At this noise Mr Kowalski seems to stir into consciousness. "Can you stand Mr Kowalski?" Mr Scamander asks. Mr Kowalski, just nods weakly and gets to his feet slowly. He stumbled and I rush to put his arm around my shoulder in order to stabilise him, he gives me a vague look of thanks. Between myself and Mr Scamander we manage to lower him into the case. I sit Mr Kowalski and watch as Mr Scamander pours different solutions together to make a glowing blue like liquid, and pass him a couple of pills to take it with. "This should help with the sweating and Shaking" Mr Scamander explains. I stand staring at Mr Kowalski with my arms folded. Too which he gives me and a scared look and quickly gulps done the pills and liquid. "Just hold on tight Mr Kowalski" I say, patting the man on the shoulder encouragingly. Mr Scamander seems to be studying this movement with a face I can't read...he's probably just checking Mr Kowalski is still breathing

It's about an hour later while myself and Mr Scamander are feeding the creatures while also checking for any that may have escaped when Mr Kowalski walks in stiffly, I walk away from Mr Scamander, giving him and Mr Kowalski time to catch up and for Mr Scamander to decide what to do next.

After a couple of hours I hear knock on my room and realise I've passed out on my bed, must have fallen asleep from the minor concussion I definitely suffered. " can I come in?" Mr Scamander requests, "yes of course, you don't need to ask" I say as I life my cover and make a weak attemp to stand up, but I've gotten up too quick and I begin to sway. When Mr Scamander closes the distance between us in an instant and steadies me by placing one hand on the small my back and the other on my central back; pressing me again him. He's saying something to me but I'm too content with my face pressed against his chest that I can't help but smile. I think he realised I'm not listening after I don't answer anything. "Y/N are you with me?" He says as he gently sits on my bed with me still placed against his chest, I'm now sat in his lap. I'm a lot more awake now. "I-." I cut myself off (wanting to say "I wish I was") and instead reply with "me? Oh yes I'm here, totally focused" I say, he's unfortunately he's not convinced and cocks his eyebrow up. "Heyyyy! I am truly" I say with an adamant tone. He sniggers at this and say "alright alright I believe you" and "sooo I'm going to back up to Mr Kowalski's apartment and I'm going to repair the damage done. Mr Kowalski has agreed to Help us navigate NewYork and help us catch the creatures which escaped!" Me Scamander's says with enthusiasm but concern remains in his eyes, I'm not sure whether it's for me, Mr Kowalski or the creatures...(it's probably the last one). "Ok well I'll get changed and come help!" I say attempting to stand once again. But before I even get a chance Mr Scamander gently grabs me and pulls me into him and says "no I can handle this, but do me a favour Y/N and rest!" But I'm waving him off attempting to stand again when he lifts me and placed me done on the bed me in my back and him towering I've tmr pinning my writers. "As your boss this is an official Order Y/N" he says firmly but his tone and face betray him revealing the hidden concern behind it all and the lack of ferocity . "Fine bossy pants " I says with a little more sass than I had intended. " please, call me Newt Y/N, I think we're past surnames" "I didn't call your surname I called u bossy pants,
Bossy pants."I say with satisfaction " I thought ms Goldstein was miss bossy pants" he says with a raised eyebrow
"Maybe don't be so bossy then" "Please just sleep Y/N" he says with amusement written all I've this face. He slowly gets up almost savouring it and then back up to the door and suddenly I'm a lot more sleepy now he's left. And so I pass out.

"Y/N, are you awake?" Newt says knocking politely. " I am now" I say forgetting my manners in my tiredness. But I don't miss his chuckle from the other side of the door. "Come Out please" and so I do I walk to the door and much more sturdy legs and and open the door, walk through and close it behind me. Mr Kowalski is staring at me a little wide eyed, I glare at this to which he quickly looks away and stares at his shoes, " Mr Kowalski has agreed to help us find our... he think it'll be in Central Park". newt says with confidence. "Yeah yeah"Mr Kowalski says  "oh and please just call me Jacob" he says with a smile. "Alright Jacob lead the wha" I say with some ease, "alright then yeah let's do this!" He's says enthusiastically, Newt smiles at this already infected by Jacobs enthusiasm. And so the search begins for the first runway beast!
