You Need to Tame Him
Hey guys. I'm a huge fan of both Rowling and Tolkein. It is just a piece of some curious crossover between them. It is almost my first fanfic. Contains comedy, drama, romance, thrill and magic. So enjoy...!
London, 1929.
Newt Scamander and Porpentina Goldstein have been married for two years, now nurturing the most fantastic beast of their own, Charles Artemis Fido Scamander. Grindelwald has not been defeated yet but Newt, Tina, Dumbledore and Theseus have somehow managed to conjure Quienee back and she is engaged to Jacob, after Dumbledore's promise that he will get their marriage approved.
It was a warm afternoon, with a clear sky.
The living room was filled with innocent chuckles of a sweet child.
Tina palpated her six month old's lower jaw and she felt something hard and pointy on her finger tip. "Ohh finally, Charlie has started his teething, thank God." Tina was excited and delighted.
Newt was, who was formerly reading a book, quickly set it aside and spread his hands for the infant that Tina had picked up from the feeding chair to put him on his daddy's lap. Newt held him close and kissed him on the forehead. The little one was also smiling as he saw his parents so happy until these cute little giggles were replaced by fright as the door sounded like thunder. Newt rose up from the sofa, alarmed, he held the baby tightly and even close. Tina got her wand at the ready and passed Newt his wand. Newt was carefully holding Charlie in this right hand and his wand in the left pointing towards the door, while Tina standing beside his right shoulder placing her free hand on Charlie's chest. The door was constantly being knocked. It was heavy and forceful at start,but now, a gap of a few seconds between each loud thump. Little Charles was just about to cry. "Shhh.." It came from both the anxious parents. "Tina, take him and go hide in the suitcase, you know where." Newt said while giving a firm expression. "I'm not going anywhere withou..." her sentence was interrupted when Bunty showed up, rushing upstairs to the living room. "Mr. and Mrs. Scamander, you hide! I'll get it, I'll say its my house and I don't know you people." She was gasping. "But Bunty you..." Tina murmured worringly. " Please leave or they will break in. Please go." "Accio suitcase. Hurry up Tina, go inside. Bunty will get the door, meanwhile I bring Zuwua." Tina had no other choice. "Be safe." She whispered with a gasp and went into the case with her baby. Her eyes watery and heart pounding.
"Bunty, you know the spells right?" "Of course Newt, now go."
Bunty slowly walked towards the door. Now it felt as if the other person was also tired but still not ready to give up.
"W-Who is it?" there was a shudder in her voice.
She heard a raucous voice say "Ah, finally!... At least they are home."
"Who is it?" This time she was loud and grumpy.
"We want to meet Mr. Newton Artemis Fido Scamander, the Magi...the beast expert from Lindon, UK , Planet Earth, Silky way Galaxy... Is he home?"
"I'm not bound to tell you. Who are you?"
"Ohh... My name is Dwalin and we have our king with us, Thorin Okenshield, Mr. Newton would know we are coming, didn't he get the letter?"
"Bunty, who is it?" Newt whispered as he came from the basement towards the living room.
"Newt, did you get any letter informing of a visit of a guy whose name is King Thorin Oken..whatever."
"Wait.. what? No..."
Newt got puzzled and stretched his hand to open the door. He was going to say the secret password when " Sir.. No this can be a trap." Newt took a deep breath.. "Trust me Bunty! I've made all the arrangements. Don't panic."
He gently opened the door. He first saw a vacant space, but when he lowered his gaze than usual, he saw some strange folk, hardly 4 feet tall, long beards, fancy moustaches, stout physique and dressed like medieval warriors. There were 13 such people standing on his doorstep who looked frustrated after 7 minutes of door knocking.
Newt didn't know what to say, but the rather foolish expression on most of the faces partly convinced him that they were not dangerous. However, Thorin's gaze was mysterious and a bossy attitude on his face.
