Newt woke to the bright sun that now shines in the room. He sighed as he realized that he was still in that basement with his idiot father. His father who loves beast's but in a crazy way. Newt sighed again as he tried to break free, but it did not work. Newt wished that he took his wand with him, but he did not know this was going to happen. "I should have listened to Theseus," Newt said with annoyance to his brother. "Merin, he was right. I hate when he is right," Newt sighed again as he thought about his brother, his brother the Minotaur. "How, how could father do this?" Newt closed his eyes, however, they opened when he saw his 'father' staring at him with a big evil smile on his face.
"Hello Newton," Newt looked at him when he said his full name but did not say anything. "Still not speaking to me I see. I'm your father Newton, you can talk to me, I will not hurt you," Newt smirked at this, but he did not laugh. He did not want, his problems ruining his brother's or his mother's lives. However, his father saw this. "What's so funny? I will not hurt you. I don't want to, but I might need to if you don't answer anything I have to say. I am your father," he said the last part with annoyance in his voice. There was also a hint of anger mixed with something else that he can't place. Newt sighed and closed his eyes wishing that he can be with, he can't believe he's thinking this, but he wished that he was with Theseus and his mother, not with this man who, just has no right to call him son or his full name.
Theseus woke like he always does after a change, exhausted and strange. "Merlin," he said under his breath. "I'm glad I did not turn when I was in school, but during the summers before school started," Theseus sighed and got to his feet. He was a little slower today, but that does not stop him from looking for his little brother. "Oh, Newton. Why did you not listen to me? And why did I tell you to write to him?" Theseus sighed again as he made his way to the dining room where his mother must be making something. 'I hope she does not know that Newt did not come home last night. Merlin she will be mad at him when I save him today,' "Good morning mother," Theseus said voice not as strong as the night before his change.
"Good morning Theseus. How did last night go? Do you…." she trailed off when she looked to the spot where Newt always sits. "I did not hear Newt come home. I don't think you remember, but did you hear him?" Theseus cursed himself and shook his head.
"No mother, I don't remember, but I think your right," Theseus half lied. Theseus continued to eat but he could not shake the look that his mother was giving him. Theseus sighed and nodded to himself. "Mother, I do not remember him coming home. I know he might have," Theseus said trying to get his mother off his back but it was not working.
"Theseus tell me please and then we can go find him, ok," Theseus sighed again and shook his head.
"Mother, I want to find him on my own, Newt's still mad at you," with this Theseus stood up and slowly walked to the stares to get ready to find his little brother.
Newt screamed as his own father tortured him, well to his father it was a 'punishment'.' "You need to behave and listen to your father. Do you understand me? Listen to your father and I will not be doing this," Newt could not help but shake his head yes.
'So, this is what Theseus meant to be careful around father. Why did I not listen to you dear brother?' Newt sighed as his father finally stopped shocking him with his wand.
"Now, tell me the thing I want to hear. Or I will do this again," Newt, however, shook his head.
"No, father…... I will…...not," Newt said this looking right into his father's evil eyes. This was rare for Newt looking at someone's eyes for the entire time that he was speaking. However, Newt's speech was broken and breathy from his father shocking him. His father pulled out his wand and aimed it at Newt again. Newt flinched and closed his eyes. However, all he heard was a hard, evil, dry laugh. Newt opened his eyes to this and sighed.
"You have your mother and brother in you, but I can break that," with this, he left the room closing the door behind him. Newt sighed once more as he tried to break free from the rope but he failed at it. However, this led Newt breathing hard from the lighting that his father used on him. Newt closed his eyes as the pain went through his body.
"Theseus, where are you?" Newt said to himself as he looked to the only window in the dark bloody room.
Theseus walked down the road trying to keep his pace up for he is having a hard time staying awake at the moment, but this does not stop him from getting his little brother back. Theseus was trying not to think about what his so-called father is doing to his little brother. One of the only lights in his life. "I will save you little brother and you will be safe at home again," Theseus said as he approached his old childhood home. They had to move after his father was caught and thrown in Azkaban. Theseus pulled out his wand and knocked on the door, but when he did not hear an answer Theseus blew the door open. "Newton!? What have you done with my little brother? Newton!? Newt?" Theseus yelled as he walked into the house. His wand raised and temper high. However, Theseus saw no one, not even his idiot father. "Where the hell are you 'Father'?'" Theseus said this with poison in his voice. Theseus wanted to yell when he did not get an answer. However, Theseus then ran down the stairs when he heard:
"Theseus? Brother, where are you?" Theseus's heart broke when he heard his 16-year-old brother's broken voice call for him. Theseus took a deep breath when he got down to the locked door at the bottom of the stares. This is the room where his so-called father turned his world and life down to hell and chaos. Theseus then unlocked the door with his wand and gasped at the sight of his little brother. Sure he looked fine but his eyes were closed and Theseus saw that his breathing was sharp and slow. "Newton? Oh, Merlin. What did father do to you?" Theseus asked as he slowly walked to his brother's side and untied the ropes that bound his little brother to the floor.
"Theseus? Is…. Is that you…. what happened?" Newt asked voice quiet and breathy. Theseus for a rare moment had tears in his eyes. Last time this happened was when he was 8 years old, in the hospital getting checked out after what his father did to him.
"Yes, dear brother it's me. It's me. Let's get you out of here," Newt smiled as his eyes closed. "No! Newton. Newt stay awake, please. Crap," Theseus picked up his little brother and with a pop, he was gone with his brother in his arms, and tears in his eyes.
