"My, my, we have company, indeed!"

Newt opened his eyes to see a distinct figure of Graves. He was locked up in some kind of a cage.

"You're. . . that crazy wizard man who took Newt's suitcase and materialized into Grindelwald!"

Next to him, Jacob was throwing insults at Graves.

"Yes, it's me, you numbskulls" Percival snorted, "Aren't you a jolly little bunch? Must've pained to see Tina being kidnapped"

"Where is she?" Newt demanded.

"She's. . . learning" Graves smiled.

"Learning?" Jacob asked.

"Oh, Tina, dear?" Graves called out for her.

To Newt's horror, Tina emerged from the darkness. She was wearing a black dress and a cloak above it. Her eyes were red. Bloodshot red.

The Imperius Curse.

Newt tried to search for his wand, looking around in his pockets.

"Oh, you must be looking for this?" Graves waved Newt's wand. Then he threw it across the room, like it never mattered.

"Meet Tina. The new Tina" he introduced.

"Tina?" Newt got up.

"Hello, Scamander" she sneered, "Welcome to your worst nightmare".

Dakota, Theseus and Anna rushed as fast as possible to the apartment. They ought to figure this case out.

The front door was left ajar. This was strange. Neither Tina nor Queenie would leave the door half opened.

"Tina? Queenie? Jacob? Newt?"

There was no response.

The trio clamored in and searched around the place. Finally they arrived in the bedroom, adjacent to the kitchen.

Queenie lied in bed, unconscious.

"Queenie? Queenie!" Theseus tried to wake her up, "Oh God, this is bad! Where are they?".

"Hold on" Dakota insisted. She left the room to search for some notes, possibly taped to the fridge. There was none.

"Look, I'll take her to the hospital!" Anna insisted, "She passed out because she didn't take her meds on time. I just know it".

"I'm pretty sure one of them would've stayed back to look after Queenie" Dakota presumed, "I mean, I'm sure they're not stupid".

"Okay, here's the plan. Anna, Apparate to the hospital with Queenie. She needs urgent care" Theseus said, "Dakota and I will search for those three bozos. They couldn't have gone too far".

"Perhaps they went to get some medicines?" Anna guessed.

"The three of them?" Dakota scoffed.

"Possibly. Why don't we check?" Theseus tried.

"Tina, snap out of it!" Jacob yelled at her, "You're being stupid!"

"It's you. You're blinded by these regimes. I'm a part of the revolution" Tina cackled.

"Tina, no!" Newt yelled.

Percival Graves had left to deal with a few more of his latest recruits. Tina was in charge of watching over Newt and Jacob, in case they try to attempt a "feat" and escape.

"We have to get her distracted" Jacob said in a whisper, "And somehow, we have to break open these darn jail cells".

Newt examined the lock. It wasn't too hard to be picked. Plus, he had picked a lot of locks in school. All he'd require is a hairpin or a sharp object to click the lock.
