"Now, Newt, this is very important," Dumbledore reminded him as they walked briskly along the streets. "The location is the most serious part, yes?"

Newt rolled his eyes, a slight gust of wind blowing his reddish-brown hair into his eyes. He struggled to fix it and glanced at his ex-professor. "Yes," he responded.

"Ok." They rounded the corner, and were met with the Woolsworth building. "Here we are," Dumbledore announced grandly, making a large sweeping gesture at the tall building, then chasing after his hat after it blew into the street.

Newt let out a soft gasp, tightening the grey-and-yellow scarf that seemed to not be tight enough around his neck. "Dumbledore, you know I'm not even allowed to have this in America!" His grip tightened on his old battered suitcase at he thrust it towards the older man. "Now you want me to go into MACUSA?!" His voice rose a few octaves as he spoke.

Dumbledore merely smiled at the hazel-eyed man. "I've worked everything out with Madame Picquery," he said calmly. He pointed to the building. "They're waiting for you."

Newt gently sunk his teeth into his bottom lip as he stared at the building. Then, shaking his head with a determined sigh, he said goodbye to his professor and marched into MACUSA headquarters.

Newt's teeth had effectively latched onto his lip as he climbed into the elevator car to the Major Investigations department. In one hand he clutched his briefcase, the other hand his wand. His hand shaking with nervousness, he dropped it and scrambled around on the floor. "My apologies," he said nervously to the other witches and wizards assembled in the car.

"Major Investigations Department," the house-elf announced. Newt stood up, nervously smoothing his coat with his wand clutched in his mouth. He walked out into the hall, quickly pushing open the door.

A room of people looked up towards him. Madame Picquery among them.

And Tina.

Newt's jaw dropped, and his wand, which he had forgotten to take out of his mouth, clanked loudly onto the floor.

Madame Picquery beckoned Newt to the large table they were all surrounding, and he managed to cast one more glance at Tina as he was led to a large map of... Hogwarts? It was a school, Newt knew that much, but he couldn't recognize it, until he saw the words "Durmstrang Institute" stamped onto the top of the parchment.

"We believe Grindelwald is hiding a key component to carrying out his plan here," Madame Picquery said, tapping a fingernail on the words. "We just don't know what it is yet."

"What we need is something that can help us search the place," an all-too familiar voice murmured from somewhere.

Newt watched in shock as Percival Graves stepped into the ring. He quickly drew his wand. "What in the name of Merlin are you doing here!"

"Newt, calm down. This is not Grindelwald. This is the true Graves."

Newt slowwwwwly put his wand back, but continued to keep a wary eye trained on Graves.

"Something to help search the place... like nifflers?" He looked up to Madame Picquery.

"Exactly. I am correct to believe you have some of those, Mr. Scamander?" He nodded.

"Alright then. We fly out to Germany in the morning. Meeting adjourned."
