INT. SUBWAY -- NIGHT

Tina runs onto the tracks.

Inches from Graves's face, the Obscurus freezes. Slowly, very slowly, it rises back up, swirling more gently, staring at Tina, who looks straight back into its weird eyes.

Inside the Obscurus, Credence reaches out to Tina, the only person who has ever done him an uncomplicated kindness. He looks at Tina, desperate and afraid. He has dreamed of her ever since she saved him from a beating.

Graves is on his feet.

NEWT: "Keep talking, Tina. Keep talking to him -- he'll listen to you. He's listening."

TINA: "Don't do this -- please."

TINA: "I know what that woman did to you… I know that you've suffered… You need to stop this now… Newt and I will protect you…"

TINA (pointing to Graves): "This man -- he is using you."

The Obscurus screams and dives, bursting through the subway roof -- for a split second, both Newt and Graves seem on the point of death -- as they lie on the tracks, cowering beneath this Dark force.

GRAVES: "Don't listen to her, Credence. I want you to be free. It's all right."

TINA (O. S.): "CREDENCE, NO!"

TINA: "Shhh! Don't, you'll frighten him."

The Obscurus lets out a terrible moan and begins to swell again. The station is crumbling. Newt and Tina wheel around, arms akimbo, both trying to protect Credence.

TINA (to Credence, calming him): "That's it…"

Suddenly Aurors begin pouring down the steps of the subway and into the tunnel. More Aurors advance from behind Tina, their wands raised aggressively.

TINA: "Credence…"

The Obscurus is beginning to shrink. Its dreadful face is becoming more human, more like Credence's own.

Graves spins to face the Aurors, wand at the ready.

The Aurors begin pelting the Obscurus with spells.

GRAVES: "Wands down! Anyone harms him -- they'll answer to me --" (turning back to Credence) "Credence!"

We see Credence from within the black mass, his face contorted, screaming. The barrage of spells continues and Credence howls in pain.

GRAVES: "NO!"
