——————————

At the Goldstein residence Tina and Queenie rush from Hermione's room, upon finding it empty, an angry curse falls from Tina's lips. Rushing to the room Newt and Jacob share, the door swings open as they burst into the now empty room, eyes settling on the open window, curtains billowing in the cool night air. Furious, Tina storms off to dress as Queenie stands in the now empty room, an upset look on her face.

"But we made 'em cocoa..." She says in a wounded voice, the words echoing in the empty room.

Hermione can't help but smile at Jacob as he looks down at the Erumpent, once again safely deposited in her enclosure within Newts case.

Poor Man. She thinks taking in his dishevelled appearance. After a rather interesting run in with the female Erumpent in question, involving Erumpent musk, outdated protective gear, and what was meant to be a slow, seductive mating dance performed by Newt the three companions returned to interior of the case.

A scene one would not be likely to forget anytime soon. Hermione thinks with a snort recalling the previous events of the evening.

After their capture of Niffler, run in with the police and odd meeting with an escaped lion the three companions made their way to Central Park. Standing before the Central Park Zoo, now half-empty, the entrance crumbling, large pieces of rubble partially blocking the way. A bellowing roar echoing around the brick building as Newt produces a breastplate handing it to Jacob, who has no wand to protect himself unlike Hermione and Newt.

"Okay, if you just, uh, pop this on." Newt says holding the breastplate towards a frightened Jacob.

"Okay." He replies apprehension clear in his voice.

"Now, there's absolutely nothing for you to worry about." Newt says in attempt to sooth the man's nerves, failing terribly.

"Tell me-has anyone ever believed you when you told them not worry?" Jacob asks as he finishes securing the breastplate in place.

"My philosophy is that worrying means you suffer twice." As Jacob and Hermione digest Newts "wisdom", he picks up his case before making his way over the rubble, walking further into the zoo as Hermione and Jacob follow.

A loud snort comes from within, startling Jacob as Hermione puts a hand on his shoulder in an attempt to comfort and calm him.

"She's in season. She needs to mate." Newt supplies, answering the unasked question.

Of course she is. Hermione thinks in self deprecating tone. Not one part of this situation could be simple.

Wand in hand as the trio approaches the hippo enclosure her eyes fall upon the Erumpent, a large, round, rhino-like creature, it's leathery greyish hide capable of repelling most curses and charms.

Much like the Tebo- Hermione thinks as she continues to take in the magnificent if not a little bit goofy looking creature before her.

Fives times the size of the poor, presumably male hippo she stands, nuzzling up against the enclosure, her single long horn, glinting dangerously as it protrudes from her head, the horn in question capable of piercing skin as well as metal, containing a deadly fluid earning it's classification as a level XXXX beast.

Newt takes out a tiny phial of liquid, pulling the stopper out with his teeth, spitting it to the side before dabbing his wrists with the liquid contained within. Jacob and Hermione look at him, wrinkling their noses slightly-the smell pungent as it fills the air.
