《I Knew you Once // Fantastic Beasts》Four

Chapter Four; Hogwarts.
The walk to Tina's apartment took longer then necessary, it took a bit of time to get Eden to stop crying. When she did though Newt still kept her close, she needed someone right now.
Tina was furious when they both showed up at her door, she wouldn't stop yelling.
'Tina...' Eden said, when she didn't stop yelling Eden started to yell too, 'Tina!'
Tina looked at her, her face was red and Eden could tell she was going to go off on her. Eden would to but not towards Tina.
'Don't you yell at me!' Tina yelled slamming the front door shut, 'Don't you tell me to be quiet!'
Eden frowned stepping back, she reached for the door handle the same time as Newt did. They both had the same idea, escape.
'Eden Lillian Rowan!'
Eden cringed, she hated when people used her full name.
'I'm sorry!' She said, 'I'm sorry you lost your job and I'm sorry it is my fault!'
Tina started pacing the room, 'And now as I try to get my job back you show up to ruin it! How could you?'
Eden looked around trying to find something to focus on, she always did that when she was nervous or upset.
'I didn't want to take this job, Tina!'
'Then why did you?'
'Because Mr Grave is my boss and I can't just tell him no!'
Tina's face was redding by the minute as she continued to pace the room, Queenie came in completely lost on what was happening but she wasn't planning on interrupting her sister. Tina usually never exploded like this, she had to have been angry for awhile now.
'And then after I get fired you stopped talking to me, what was that all about!' Tina raged, 'And then you come here and refuse to tell me how you know this man?'

Eden sighed, she knew she couldn't run from this now.
'We went to school together.' She explained, 'We were in the same house and year at Hogwarts.'
'Is there more?' Tina asked, 'Because I feel like there is considering he asked Queenie for your address.'
Eden had her hand on the door knob, she could opened it and run.
'We were friends.' Newts voice was quiet, he probably wasn't used to two woman fighting.
Tina nodded viciously, 'Is that why you don't want me to turn him into the Ministry?'
'You've already done that, Tina' Queenie mumbled from the kitchen, Eden suppressed a small smile.
'Those creatures are his life, you can't take that away from him.'
'This is my chance to get my job back, Eden.' Tina pleaded, 'Please let me take it. You owe me that much.'
Eden sighed staring from Newt back to Tina, she didn't know what to do until she noticed Newt give a slight nod with sad eyes. Eden frowned as she watched Tina stare at her.
'I'll leave.' Eden breathed, 'Go get your job back, Tina.'
Tina smiled, no longer angry she walked over to Eden and engulfed her into a hug. When she let go she whispered a thank you before rushing beside Queenie and a strange man Eden hadn't noticed before.
'Well...' Eden said, 'It was nice seeing you guys again.'
Queenie frowned waving at her while Tina nodded still smiling, she actually though this would get her job back. The man beside Queenie awkwardly waved as well, Eden smiled back.
'Bye, Newt.' She added before disappearing out the door.
•••
She stayed home the rest of the day, she wasn't surprised that no one followed her. Usually they were the ones who left, that was why Eden didn't know how she felt about Newt yet. He left when she needed him most, he didn't tell her he was leaving. One day he just disappeared and Eden never heard from him again.

She groaned laying her bed, she really did hate being alone in such a big city. Every single light was on in her apartment, multiple books of poetry laid open scattered among her bed.
CRACK!
A panicked Newt fell onto the ground, Eden peered down onto the floor from her bed. He sprang back up just as fast as he went down, he blinked multiple times before focusing his attention towards Eden. He looked at all the books sprawled around on her bed, he picked up the nearest one and read the few words that were inked onto its page.
'A six word poem.' He read, 'You liked me enough to lie.'
Eden stared up at him, now that he was standing he was towering over her.
'What are you doing here?' She asked, 'Why do you keep coming back?'
'I need your help.'
'With what?'
'Some of my creatures have escape from their temporary habitat...' He trailed off, 'I need your help finding them.'
'Why me?'
'Because their all familiar with you, Eden.' He said, 'They all like you.'
Eden sighed standing up from her bed, she grabbed her wand from her nightstand before agreeing to help him. Maybe this time he wouldn't leave, maybe this time he would stay. Eden knew better though, she had always set herself up for destruction. She should be used to it by now, yet she knew she never would be.

RakhtaBhushan (Blood Ornament)
[This book has been contracted elsewhere, which is why I am not updating any more. Please contact me if you want to continue reading the story.] God King Arya defeats Agni Asura Yaman. Two hundred years later, Asura Yaman reincarnates as golden prince, Suryadev, of RakhtaPrastha. Once he comes of age, a darkness begins to lurk in his dreams. Flashbacks from his past life erode his mind, his fate "unforeseen by the gods." As he seeks to heal, his path entwines with Vidyut, his long time rival. Hardened by the cruelties of life, Vidyut embraces the dark art of Tantra, for which he is both rejected and coveted by the people of the five kingdoms. Meanwhile, the kingdom of RakhtaPrastha is facing political turmoil and rival kingdoms, while the animosity between God King Arya and Yaman/Surya's supporter, Goddess Dimuka, is spilling into the human world. Princes, Spells, Gods, Spirits, Heaven, Mythical creatures, Wars, and Reincarnation, and so much more. It is based on Indian mythology, specifically Hindu mythology. But it is an original fantasy and focus is character arcs. It has BL/Gay content. Most Surya-Vidyut interactions are in the chapters marked Surya or Vidyut. The romance in this story is slowburn. **Daily Chapter Release** Cover Art Disclaimer: The cover art is using an image from Pinterest. The art has been kindly created by Ben Arisson.

Starting chapters are heavily invested in psychology and philosophy. A story about John Keene exploring a different world. This project is similar to 'Ex Legacy' and 'Aidan Alastair'; they follow similar plots. Ex Legacy has more of a completed feel so far - it's debatable, but you are free to read both of them: Aidan Alastair: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/31409/aidan-alastair-volume-1 Ex Legacy: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/48422/ex-legacy

Fateless: The Silver Lining
It has been ten years of peace for the Union since the end of the great war with the eastern barbarian tribes, yet in the cold north of the Union's land, a new threat is looming. This time, an ambitious Lord is seeking to restore the yore pride of his kin, forcing the weakened Union into yet another unwanted war, as he ramps up the ranks of his army with thieves, murderers and mercenaries.* * *The temperature inside the forge was nearly twice as high as the one outside. A black-haired girl hammered a steel ingot into the shape of a blade. The heat of the steam was draining her stamina away, but her focus remained sharp as her sweat streamed down her face. Hit after hit, for hours, the sound of the hammering steel followed the rhythm of her breathing. Exhausted, she placed the blade into the water and wiped the sweat off her face using a drenched rag. Why are they screaming? Vatra dipped the rag back in the water, twisted it, and approached the window. Her mouth opened as her world shattered again into the living nightmare she had wilfully tried to forget. She bit her lips; it wasn’t a dream. The pulse of her heart rose. A cold sweat prickled her back. A mother was running, and a child was screaming. A torrent of smoke was emerging from the roof of her neighbour. Vatra’s eyes blinked. The mother lay on the ground, a spear through her back. A torch circled in the air and landed on the roof of her workshop. In the distance, a man wearing a banner well known to the world… Fateless is a philosophical medieval dark low fantasy centered on war, militaristic campaigns and geopolitical conflicts between multiple empires. This story follows the fate of Vatra, a former slave from the eastern Nar Empire who was raised in a culture far away from her own, forced into warfare against her will, and the fate of Lanaya, an ambitious half-angel exiled from her home whose existence is seen as heresy. As they wished for peace, both chose a path opposed to one another until their fate crossed. In this story where war dictates the law, love strikes them as a poisoned balm to which they grasp for with all their might, as it is in the darkest of times that the smallest flames may burn the brightest. * * * Tome 1 already completed and available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.ca/Fateless-Silver-Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot/dp/B09LGSH1KK Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot-100547579135891/ I will publish 1 chapter per week (sometimes 2 if the chapters are too short for my liking).

Magikind [Original]
The third millennia, a time of change and evolution. An era, where people, through countless generations, have evolved strange powers and abilities. Through several centuries of selective breeding, these beings, known as mages, have become part of the very foundations of society. However, some refused to change or adapt. They believed in purity and refused to interbreed with magikind. Known as the manush, they were a rarity among society. Now, in the fifth millennia, the manush are thought extinct. With magikind ruling the world, a three-way war grips society. In these uncertain times, a manush called Gin, will herald a new era for all Magikind. A story of how man could realistically evolve while still pushing boundaries. Disclaimer: Chapters will be edited once the first volume is done. Bear the beginning for the time being, and hopefully you can see my writing improving over time (I've learnt a lot on how to write because of this (though I'm still not perfect :P)) Proud Member of Writers to the End, WriTE The link to the pledged fictions PS. If you find the 'notes' too boring or too info-dumpy, feel free to skip them and just read the main chapters. They're there for the reader to understand Gin's world (written in the perspective of Gin). But later on, we can see some interactions between the main characters and the occasional references to his past in the notes, so it has its purpose.
