"The boy was beautiful, he knew that. But still young. Still innocent. And yet still in need of his help." This story will contain spoilers. This is a story that I am writing based off of the characters from J.K.Rowling's Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them. When I watched it for the first time I was captivated by the relationship between Credence and Graves, and was disappointed when it got complicated and abusive. Because of this, I am writing this with the outlook that Graves does actually care about Credence and that he was never always Grindelwald.

Credence has had a troubled childhood, and as a result of the abuse he suffers at the hand of his adoptive mother, he comes to crave affection from others. Any kind of affection. Aurelia knew him long ago. She was the only one to show any care for the boy. Will she be able to save him from his destructive path?

After Credence's defeat he sets out to find a new place in the world with little limits. Credence boards a ship and meets an unexpected friend. With a new friend there's no telling what could happen.

Everyday Credence Barebone stood on the crowded streets of New York. Everyday he handed out leaflets on the horrors of the witches, just as he was told to. And everyday he waited for the smile of the girl with the peculiar flowers. Credence did not know who she was, where she was going, or why, without fail, she met his gaze each morning with her soft brown eyes, and granted him a smile that made him feel much more than any beating from his "mother" ever could. Credence lived for that smile, and she lived to give it.

Credence Barebone was even more broken after being nearly killed by the obscurus. He was broken and alone when Angel found him and she swore he'll never feel like that ever again. A story about how mundane life can be even after the worst of the worst has happened. Warnings: none. This story is going to be as pure as Credence is in my head, but I do have plans about another story which would take place after this one that would involve mature themes. Disclaimer: I do not own most characters that are or will be mentioned in this story, just the oc - Angel.

[ Credence x Reader ] Credence could no longer bare more suffering and pain. All he knew was hurt and mistreatment. He had to escape. He had to resort to the one place that he had only dreamed of ever seeing. The one place he could truly learn how to control his powers; Hogwarts.
