Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them Page #4

one of Mr. Scamanders creatures.

No-Maj?

-Obliviated?

Merlins beard.

You know which of your creatures

was responsible, Mr. Scamander?

No creature did this. Dont pretend!

You must know what that

was, look at the marks...

That was an Obscurus.

You go too far, Mr. Scamander.

There is no Obscurial in America.

Impound that case, Graves!

-Wait. No. Give that back. -Arrest them!

Dont hurt those creatures.

Please, you dont understand, nothing

in there is dangerous, nothing!

Well be the judges of that!

Take them to the cells!

Dont hurt those creatures, nothing

in there is dangerous!

Please, dont hurt my creatures! They aren't

dangerous! Please, they are not dangerous!

They are not dangerous!

I am so sorry about your

creatures, Mr. Scamander.

I truly am.

Can someone please tell me what this

ObscurialObscurius thing is? Please?

There hasnt been one for centuries.

I met one in Sudan three months ago.

There used to be more of

them but they still exist.

Before wizards went underground,

when we were still

being hunted by Muggles,

young wizards and witches sometimes

tried to suppress their magic

to avoid persecution.

Instead of learning to harness

or to control their powers,

they developed what

was called an Obscurus.

Its an unstable, uncontrollable Dark

force that busts out and attacks...

And then vanishes.

Obscurials cant

survive long, can they?

Theres no documented case of any

Obscurial surviving past the age of ten.

The one I met in Africa

was eight when she...

She was eight when she died.

What are you telling me here, that

Senator Shaw was killed by a kid?

My momma, your momma,

flying on a switch.

My momma, your momma,

witches never cry.

My momma, your momma,

witches gonna die!

Witch number one, drown in

a river!

Witch number two,

gotta noose to give her!

Hand out your leaflets!

-Witch number three...

Ill know if you dump em. Tell

me if you see anything suspicious.

It was good to make your acquaintance,

Jacob, and I hope you get your bakery.

Youre an interesting man, Mr. Scamander.

-Mr. Graves...

You were thrown out of Hogwarts

for endangering human life...

That was an accident!

-With a beast.

Yet one of your teachers argued

strongly against your expulsion.

What makes Albus

Dumbledore so fond of you?

I really couldnt say.

So setting a pack of dangerous

creatures loose here was...

Was just another accident, is that right?

-Why would I do it deliberately?

To expose wizardkind.

To provoke war between the

magical and non-magical worlds.

Mass slaughter for the

greater good, you mean?

Yes. Quite.

Im not one of Grindelwalds

fanatics, Mr. Graves.

I wonder what you can tell

me about this, Mr. Scamander?

Its an Obscurus.

But its not what you think.

I managed to separate it from the

Sudanese girl as I tried to save her.

Wanted to take it home, to study it.

But it cannot survive outside that

box, it could not hurt anyone, Tina!

So its useless without the host?

"Useless?" "Useless?"

That is a parasitical magical force that killed

a child. What on earth would you use it for?

You fool nobody, Mr. Scamander.

You brought this Obscurus into the city of New

York in the hope of causing mass disruption,

breaking the Statute of Secrecy

and revealing the magical world.

You know that cant hurt anyone, you know that!

-You are therefore guilty of a treasonous betrayal

of your fellow wizards

and are sentenced to death.

Miss Goldstein, who has

aided and abetted you...

No, shes done nothing of the kind.

-She receives the same sentence.

Just do it immediately. I will inform

President Picquery myself. -Tina.

Please.

Dont do this, Bernadette, please...

It don't hurt.

Tina...

-Momma... -Tina...

Come on, pumpkin, time

for bed. Are you ready?

Dont that look good?

You wanna get in? Huh?

Hey, Sam! -Hey, Queenie.

-They need you downstairs.

Ill obliviate this guy.

-You aint qualified.

Hey, Sam, does Cecily

know you been seeing Ruby?

Howd you... -Let me obliviate this guy

and shell never hear about it from me.

What are you doin? -Shh! Teens

in trouble, Im trying to listen...

Jacob, wheres Newts case?

-I think that guy Graves took it.

Okay, come on. -What? Youre

not gonna obliviate me?

Of course not, youre one of us now!

Its okay.

Alohomora.

Aberto...

He would know a fancy

spell to lock his office.

Okay, lets get the good stuff out of you.

Witch!

It's just gonna eat me! -Don't panic!

-What do you suggest I do instead?

Jump.

Are you crazy?

-Jump on him.

Tina, listen to me. Ill catch you.

Tina!

Ill catch you.

Ive got you, Tina. Go!

Come on!

Coming through!

-Move!

Leave his brains, come on!

Come on!

What is that thing? -Swooping

Evil. -Well, I love it!

Get in.

Queenie!

Where you going?

Im sick, Mr. Abernathy.

Again?

Well, whatve you got there?

-Ladies things.

You wanna take a look? I dont mind.

Good gravy, no! I...

You get well now!

-Thanks.

Credence. Have you found the child?

I cant.

-Show me.

Shh. My boy, the sooner we find this child, the sooner

you can put that pain in the past where it belongs.

I want you to have this, Credence.

I would trust very few with it.

Very few.

But you...

Youre different.

When you find the child, touch this symbol

and I will know, and I will come to you.

Do this and you will be

honored among wizards. Forever.

The child is dying,

Credence.

Time is running out.

Your grandfather kept

pigeons? Mine bred owls.

I used to love feeding em.

-Graves always insisted

the disturbances were caused by a beast.

We need to catch all your creatures

so he cant keep using

them as a scapegoat.

Theres only one still

missing. Dougal, my Demiguise.

Dougal?

-Slight problem is that...

Hes invisible.

Invisible?

-Yes, most of the time... He does...

How do you catch something that?

-With immense difficulty.

Gnarlak!

-Excuse me?

Gnarlak, he was an informant

of mine when I was an Auror!

He used to trade in magical

creatures on the side.

He wouldnt happen to have an

interest in paw prints, would he?

Hes interested in anything he can sell.

How do I get a drink in this joint?

What? Aint you ever

seen a house-elf before?

No, no, of course I have.

I love house-elves.

My uncles a house-elf.

Yeah...

Six shots of gigglewater

and a lobe blaster, please.

Are all No-Majs like you?

No, Im the only one like me.

Ive arrested half of the people in here.

You can tell me to mind my own

business, but I saw something

in that death potion back there.

I saw you hugging

that Second Salem boy.

His names Credence.

His mother beats him.

She beats all those kids she adopted,

but she seems to hate him the most.

And she was the No-Maj you attacked?

Thats how I lost my job.

I went for her in front of a

meeting of her crazy followers.

They all had to be obliviated.

It was a big scandal.

Its him.

So...

Youre the guy with the

case full of monsters, huh?

News travels fast.

I was hoping youd be able to tell
