Strings Attached

Chapter 7

"They will, and the world will finally see the creatures from the point of view of Newton Artemis Fido Scamander." Celeste said, her face lit up with a smile.

Newt went ahead to say something but his expression turned into confusion. "Is that your owl?" Newt asked as he pointed at the sky.

A beautiful barn owl landed on Celeste's shoulder and gave out a hoot. "Oh Hey Felicity. How are ya girl?" Celeste said as she ruffled her feather and removed the letter from her beak.

As soon as the letter was taken away, Felicity took off and entered into bird shade made by Albert.

"Oh my Merlin. Here goes nothing." Celeste said, as she looked at Newt with wide eyes. Newt nodded his head with encouragement.

Celeste shakily opened the letter. Her eyes scanned the letter and her face immediately brightened up.

Celeste looked at Newt with a bright smile. "I did amazing!" She exclaimed before engulfing the boy into a tight hug.

"Show me." Newt said before they pulled back. Celeste happily handed him the letter. Newt's face broke out into a big smile.

"See I told you, you will do amazing. You really broke so many records." Newt said, a smile on his face.

"I know right! Let's head inside, I have to tell this to Gil before he heads to ministry with Theseus." Celeste said excitedly before both of them headed inside.

After breaking the news to her family, Celeste was being talked about her career option, as Barn owl swooped in and landed before Celeste.

Celeste retrieved the letter, watching the owl fly away. "Who is it?" Gilbert asked as he looked at his sister turning over the envelope.

"It's from the ministry! Especially from the head of magical law and enforcement!" Celeste exclaimed as she opened the letter and read it loud for others in the room.
