Chapter 4
As Jyn was still in her thoughts, Newt slowly opened his briefcase. "Hi Jyn."
"Hi Newt." She said and didn't look at him.
"I have something for you." He said and Jyn turned to him. "Come in." The wizard said and extended his hand. Jyn took it and got into the case.
"What is it so special?" She asked and looked around the place. He smiled and got a wand from a cupboard.
"For you." He said and as Jyn took it in her hand, she saw it was her kyber wand.
"You've made it! How?" She asked and looked up at him.
"Well, I found a cristal while I was walking on the hallway last night to the lab and I thought it was a kyber and I fixed both wands."
"Thank you." Jyn said and hugged Newt. Newt hugged her back and smiled in her neck.
Meanwhile, Cassian was sitting on a chair and waiting for the reports in the meeting room. K-2SO came to him. "What troubles you, Cassian?" He asks.
"Jyn found a new friend named Newt and I'm worried that he's an Imperial spy. I don't want to hurt her reporting him officially, but I don't want to risk getting her hurt." He said and looked at his hands.
"You don't worry." K2 said and put his hand on Cassian's shoulder.
While K2 was coming with Cassian after meeting General Draven that surprised them both that there was no profile of a Scamander, Jyn and Newt decided to go outside and test their wands. On the way out, all four of them met.
"Oh, hi, I-I'm Newt. Newt Scamander." He said. Cassian was looking him up and down with a suspicious glance.
"Newt..." he said and took a step forward, offering his hand. "I'm Cassian. Jyn told me about you."
Newt shook Cassian's hand and smiled. "She's one kind of a girl." He said and at his commentary, Jyn gingled. "You also have a... gun." Newt said and pointed with his wand to Cassian's blaster which was at his belt. The captain also looked at Newt's wand, then his eyes slowly raised to meet the wizards's gaze.
"So, you've been here for a week." He said and crossed his arms.
"Almost. I... we... we were afraid someone would shoot us. Jyn helped me so much." Newt said and turned to Jyn. "Jyn, I need to thank you so much for everything." He said to her and she smiled and blushed a little, but as soon as she saw Cassian's expression, she stopped: he had his arms crossed, his lips pressed in a thin line and his eyes still suspicious. "You didn't have any scan-docs on record." He said a-matter-of-facility. "How did you exactly get into this base, again?"
"I came here by... this wand." Newt said and held the wand. "I've actually built another one here for Jyn." Cassian looked at the wand, but didn't move.
"Right..." He rested his head in his hands, pinching the bridge of his nose and squeezing his eyes shut for a moment. "Okay..." he nodded, looking up at Newt. "I need you to come with me." He said. Jyn felt a little in the middle of this awkward situation and came closer to Cassian.
"Cassian, what is happening?" She asked him, putting her hand on his shoulder. The captain looked at her, his face set in a blank mask.
"We just need to ask him a few questions." He looked back at Newt, his eyes cold and unreadable. Jyn felt like she couldn't beathe anymore. What if they kill him? What if they terorize him?
"Then I'm coming with him." She said and took Newt's arm. She wouldn't leave a friend behind in her entire life.
"We need to talk to you too." Cassian nodded looked for a few seconds at K2, the droid looking back at him.
"I'm really sorry for what is happening here, sir, but I don't want to cause any trouble." Newt said and accidentally pointed his wand at Cassian. The captain knocked his hand away, the wand falling on the floor as he pins Scamander against the wall, twisting his arm behind his back. K2 stepped forward, his hand clamping around Jyn's arm to stop her from doing anything.
"Cassian, let him go, please!" She tried to get her arm out from K2's hold.
"Who sent you here, huh?" Cassian asked Newt, not stepping back. "Who do you work for?" On the hall, a few other rebels came seeing the strugle.
"I don't know what you're talking about, sir, but let's talk like normal people do, not like this." Newt said and felt how fear slowly started to rise in him. Jyn didn't want Newt in any kind of trouble with the Rebellion, so she pushed K2 back and as the droid tried to keep his stability, she grabed his wand and got hers out. She thought on spot and pointed her kyber wand to Cassian's head.
"Cassian. Let him go." Cassian eased his hold on the wizard slightly, but still kept hin pushed to the wall. He glanced back at Jyn, hesitating as he saw her holding the wands. "Jyn, put that down..."
"Not until you free him!" She said and blincked away the tears. What am I doing? You're helping a friend! Over Cassian?!? Her thoughts kept fighting in her head. She grabed Newt's shoulder forcefully. "How was the transporting spell like?"
"Focus pocus concentratum." Newt replied. Am I really doing this? Jyn thought again.
"Focus pocus..." She said and closed her eyes. Newt over Cassian? No! Yes! Ugh... I don't know! I need to get Newt out of this now! "...concentratum!" She finished and the spell transported the three of them to the place she thought of: Lah'mu.
