Based on: You were chased by cops and took me as a hostage but you didn't realize the cops were after me


You know that Grindelwald is a bad guy, everyone knows that he's a bad guy- so it's not so surprising to see aurors chasing him whenever they catch a glimpse of his face, or the white pineapple hairstyle - he hates it, of course, why he has to look like that? He often asks the creator, but well. The important fact here is that he's noticeable. Very much. After the whole "stealing Graves' identity" shit, he simply doesn't have time to search for another personality to steal, so he sticks to his white pineapple head for some time after escaping MACUSA headquarters. But he's not the one to hide until everything calms down (MACUSA is in active search for him, holy shit, what are you doing sticking out that pineapple head of yours out of your hideout)- well, don't ask how he's got chased by half of MACUSA's DMLE. And they seem very angry on top of everything- oh, they probably found their director unconscious in his wardrobe- that's not important now. If there were at least fifteen aurors, he would do fine, but there are at least thirty and he doesn't know why the fuck they were so many, did they know he wanted to go to buy a niffler pastry from that new bakery? What? He likes the niffler pastries from there.

And why the hell Scamander was running beside him? Trying again his Swooping Evil shit? That won't work twice, Scamander, and you're definitely an idiot if you think it will. Grindelwald twists and grabs Newt by the neck, pointing his wand at man's throat. Newt pants, but seems pretty much unfazed by the wand digging into his skin.

"Mr. Grindelwald." Newt says and tries to look at the man over his shoulder. "I'm actually flattered you want to use me as a hostage, but-" he points at the thirty aurors who are almost there "they're after me. I somehow…" Newt stutters as Grindelwald gapes at him "managed to put on fire half of the MACUSA building. Unintentionally, of course."

Grindelwald released him and gave him an incredulous look. "Scamander, you are a walking disaster, seriously." He chuckled and grabbed Newt's hand, as the aurors were only feet away from them "That's why I think you're interesting."

He disapparates both of them a few times in row to get rid of the annoying aurors, and why he didn't do that from the very beginning? Ah, right. He was distracted by that amused face Scamander made while running from the aurors.
