The sea was spraying in my face and it felt nice, to be out for the first time in ages. My eyes closed taking in all the air. My name is Evangeline Opera, I'm 29 and I am a Pureblood, sadly. I am a Magiczoologist and am a big mystical creature fan. I'm currently on a ship, traveling to New York to find a suitable home for one of my many creatures that I have saved from the wild and move.

I opened my eyes, turned my head and saw my case had been moved. I guessed it was Carly my Niffler, she was very odd, not liking gold very much, but silver...my favourite. I looked around making sure nobody saw me talking to my case. For the close was clear I stood and grabbed it. My hands clipped open the lid slightly to see Carly sniffing around.

"Carly...what did I tell you, we must wait until we meet the Magic 'zookeeper'. I don't want to repeat myself." I whispered to my Niffler. As she nodded her head and dived into the case, a purr came from the inside and could tell it was my cat, Darcy.

"Yes?" I asked him, he jumped out and I was greeted by black to the face. "Darcy..." he just sat on my lap as I held my case above him, I was lucky he didn't make me drop it. As Darcy started to purr again, I closed my case so none of my creatures could escape. Once it was shut, I placed it next to me and started to pat Darcy to past time as we arrived at New York.

As we docked into the harbour, I grabbed my case and picked up Darcy. While walking down I saw a flash of blue and brown. I felt a hand wrap around my arm to keep me steady, I turned and nodded to the old man who helped me and thanked him. Some people are so rude, I thought. As I kept walking I spotted the blue and brown flash in the distance talking to one of the Customs Officials. My curious mind took over a headed to the person and Official.

"Welcome to New York." the Official said,

"Thank you," replied the man, grabbing his briefcase and passport. I felt like I recognised his voice, but I'd have to see him to know who exactly who he was.

"Next!" the Official called, and I stepped forward. He stared at me, I don't understand why, my long brown hair was in a bun and I wasn't wearing the best clothes.

"Sir?" I court his attention and he coughed focusing again on his job

"Yes, sorry ma'am, Passport." He asked holding his hand out. I grabbed my passport from my pocket, setting Darcy down. I gave the Official the passport and picked Darcy up again.

"Evangeline Opera, born in England and on June 14th?" He asked, making sure it was me. "Yes, sir," I replied and placed my case on the bench, grabbing my passport before he could look any deeper.

"First time in New York?" He asked eyeing Darcy as he glared back.

"Yes."

"Anything edible in this," he addressed my case.

"No," he was about to open it but one of the clips popped. Carly... "Sorry, dose that all the time, its really old," I placed Darcy on the ground again and fixed the clip, also making my case 'Muggleworthy'.

"Let me look," he said suspiciously and he flicked the clips open. His face was surprised to see 2 pairs of clothes, 3 books, undergarments and a brush. "Welcome to New York Miss Opera." He said through gritted teeth.

"Thank you." I replied kindly. I grabbed Darcy before he could go anywhere and then picked up my case which automatically switched back to my creatures. As I exited I herd him yell 'Next' and grinned to myself.

Stupid Muggles.
