Everything belongs to Jk Rowling. Please review. It could be considered a crossover with fantastic beasts, but since it's all in the Wizarding world, I don't think it needs to be. Rating might go up.
It was easy to kidnap the creatures. Werewolves were not killed by the avada kedavra. Maledictus were not killed by swords. Metamorphmagi were not killed by killing curses.
There bodies were lying there, on the earth, completely abandoned. Andromeda Tonks, the only person who might have cared was mourning at home. She did not wish to see her daughters body.
The man with the hood walked over to the metamorphmagus first. She was the only one whom someone would miss, he'd take her first. Unconscious, in an almost death like coma, within 24 hours they would all awake.
He took her, and placed her in one of the cages.
He took the wolf next. Though the wolf had no family, he had a son and a mother in law, and those who could be considered friends. He placed the wolf in the cell next to the metamorphmagus.
He took the Maledictus last. Perhaps along time ago, she had known love, be it a mother's, brothers or lovers. But now? She had not felt the soft hand of love in many years.
No one would miss her. He placed her in the cage on the other side of the metamorphmagus. He laughed as he left, a gleeful laugh. His collection, his circus, his zoo, soon it would be open to the public.
The Maledictus awoke first. She awoke, and turned to human form. She was beautiful, still, Maledictus do not age as humans do, not when they have spent so long as an animal.
The werewolf awoke second. He awoke, as though a waking from a transformation. He woke up cold and aching.
The metamorphmagus woke up last.
It was illegal in most countries to hold a metamorphmagus captive. They had human rights under most governments. Even if they were sometimes discriminated against, legally, Nymphadora Tonks was being kidnapped.
Unfortunately, werewolves and maledictus were both classified as beasts. Meaning that they could be captured or killed by anyone without penalties. If anyone questioned it, Remus and Nagini were both being held legally. The worst crime for theie kidnap would be animal abuse.
"where are we?" Tonks asked Remus, quietly, fear lacing her voice. "we're being held in a freak show. A circus." Nagini replied. "how do you know that?" Tonks asked coldly. "I've been held in one of these before. I escaped, in Paris, Credence Barebone saved me."
"who are you?" Remus asked. "Nagini." she replied. "I don't understand, why aren't we dead?" Tonks asked. "silver is the only way to kill a werewolf." Nagini nodded. "none of us can be killed by the methods used to kill us. Maledictus can only die in a fire. Metamorphmagi will die of there heads are removed."
Tonks looked grim. "lovely." she muttered sarcastically. "how did you know I was a metamorphmagus?" she asked. "your hair. It was pink, but now it's gone black. You look like Bellatrix Lestrange."
"silence!" a voice called. The man with the hood came down the hall. "none of you are to talk. If I catch you talking when we have visitors here, I will muzzle you."
"where are we? Who are you?" Remus asked. "we are in a zoo. A circus. A freak show. A carnival amusement. And I... I am your owner. You will address me as Master."
He smirked. "there are other beasts here to. They're asleep for now." the man rang a large bell, and turned in the lights. Remus, nagini and Tonks looked around them. Magical beasts and beings surrounded them. A centaur, a hippogriff, a thestral, a vampire, a merperson, and many others.
" would you three like to see my other more special beasts?" the man said with a sadistic smile. Without waiting for a response, he opened their cages, leading them out. "the bit your in is for the main animals. The less violent ones, the ones that don't need specialist cages. Of course, on a full moon, a werewolf might. But these, these are my specialities."
They walked into a different corridor, filled with cages. But these looked stronger, or bigger, or different. There was an acromantula in one. A blinded basilisk. An erumpent. A child, a girl, barely 7 years old." why is there a child in that cage? " Remus said in utter disgust. "an a special cage that magic can't break. For when she loses control."
The girl looked up at them with sad, hunted eyes. "the locals wanted to put her down. Thought she was a liability. But I'd been looking for one. The last one on record was a boy, in New York. Destroyed half of it in the process. Right monster that one"
Nagini looked furious. "how dare you!" she snapped. "credence was not a monster! Credence was a good person, depressed and alone and scared! You are a monster, keeping us locked up!"
The man laughed. "sensitive spot. Never know a maledictus and a obscurial to breed before. Of course, is never met a werewolf and a metamorphmagus to breed before either," he said, with a slight nod to Remus and Tonks. "that child. Goodness, practically a speciality in my zoo. The star of the show."
The man led them back to their cages. "see you tomorrow, for the premiere performance."
