THE SCAMANDER JOURNAL (PART II)

"I'm from dad's office.". He shook his head repeatedly from side to side.

"No! Actually I'm from a room in dad's office. Maybe a secret room of mom and dad. I think they were running an investigation of something but I have no idea what was that. It looked like something was really strange and I've never seen it before. And, do you remember about the creature I've told you before it killed them? I found out about it in the journal. Maybe this is the asnwer to what they were doing."

Newt explained to Aunt Jane. 

"Wait! Where do you say you found the journal?". Aunt Jane asked again.

"In a secret room in dad's office. Let me show you."

Newt showed the way. Aunt Jane stepped in the room. She looked around, excitedly.

"So, how do you know that Omentos killed them?" asked Aunt Jane while looking at the hanging photo.

"It looked exactly like in the journal. Well, I'm sure that was it because I'd continuously dream about the incident. Often. Like... every week."

Then, he realised. 

"Wait! I didn't mention its name. How do you know?" 

Aunt Jane turned to him. 

"Oh smart boy. You notice my little mistake. Let me say, I have one." 

"You have one? Why? Ho...How?" Newt couldn't believe the fact he just knew. 

"Because I'm the one who knew about the second world first. Then, I told your mother because I knew she and Pete would be interested in the mystic world. But, after they got every point that I had, they pushed me aside, running the investigation without me. The wanted to claim that is theirs; but it was all started from me.". She pointed to herself.

"Look at the journal. The put your family's name like it's officially yours.". She grabbed the journal roughly from Newt's hand. 

"So, when I told you about Omentos before, you've already knew about it!"

Aunt Jane nodded.

"Why do you pretend like you didn't know and let everyone thinks I'm a lunatic? Do you know it hurts when everyone ignores and pretends like you don't exist?" 

"yeah I know. But, do I need to expose my bad doings?". She stared straight to Newt's eyes. 

"Wait.. you mean..."

Aunt Jane smirked while saying,

"Yes, I do."

"How could you? She is you sister!" Newt was half screaming as he was really angry and shocked. 

"I know. That's why I kept you. To redeem my wrongs. Well, I suppose you need to thank me."

"That will never redeem your wrong! And I'll never thank you all for these! I prefer to live as a homeless than living with a witch!"

Newt turned his body and wanted to exit the room.

But, Omentos was there. Floating at the door.

"Ermm.. Newt... Despite being homeless...why don't you 'stay' with your parents?" 

"Oh before that. I want to thank you. Actually, I was just pretending that I had money crisis and needed to move here. So, I can easily find the journal. Well, thank you dear nephew. You just helped me. A lot!"

She smiled. An evil smile that betrays all the innocence. 

Newt looked petrified.

"KILL HIM !!  NOW!!"

Omentos did the same thing to Newt as it did to Mr and Mrs Scamander. 

"Poor Newt."

Aunt Jane touched Newt's cheek which was laid on the floor stiffly. 

"Eerie Pete. You wanted to hide from me. but you can't. I've already got it."

She looked at the journal with a wide smile then left.
