Part Nine

A few weeks have passed since you escaped MACUSA. You've been living in Mr. Graves' apartment, and have been working steadily at the flower shop everyday. Unfortunately, you haven't been able to see much of Credence, but you have visited him a few times. Each time, you bring him a different flower, trying to brighten up his world.

Now, you walk down the street, head bowed, eyes down, with an armful of red roses tucked against you. Someone had ordered it from the flower shop, and you are delivering them right now.

Avoiding a pothole in the sidewalk, you sidestep and come face to face with Credence.

You smile as your eyes meet, but hasten on your way without speaking. Feeling his burning gaze on you as you walk away, you twirl around and grin widely at him.

He smiles a bit before turning away.

With a grin, you carry your package to the customer's house and knock on the door.

A man opens the door, gives you the money and takes the flowers.

With a happy sigh, you begin the walk back to the store. You go past the bank, but something catches your eyes.

You see a strange-looking creature scurrying around. It kind of looks like a platypus, but smaller and cuter.

It finds a coin and shoves the coin into it's pouch.

Curiosity aroused, you step closer. You see a large gathering of people listening to Mary Lou's speech. Looking for Credence, you see him behind Mary Lou, handing out pamphlets.

Your eyes meet and you beam at him, before following the strange creature into the bank.

A man, fairly tall, with a freckled face, seemingly follows the creature as well.
