Summary: Three Aurors, two friends, attacks by the Dark Lord, and a hospital: the makings of a friendship. Slightly AU in the Marauders time.
Disclaimer- JK Rowling owns most of it I suppose. Wait, nope all of it, what can ya do?
MediWitches and MediWizards walked quickly through intertwined hallways in one of the most famous wizard hospital in the world. The entire building, if a building it was, was crisp, clean, and white. Not many people were in St. Mungos at the current moment, mainly because the Healers there did there best to keep witches and wizards in, out, and healthily on their way. But alas, as fate would have it not all hopes of peace were made true, and evil reigned over good.
"Another attack by the infamous Lord Voldemort is taking place now in Diagon Alley, from our sources the attack started half an hour ago and is now under control. Aurors have taken care of the Death Eaters but there are many Auror injuries and one reported death, we will bring any further news a soon as possible." A voice blasted over to WWN.
"God help us." A young MediWitch muttered as she was getting ready for the group of Aurors that would soon be rushed into St. Mugos. "I hope Lily is ok." The young witch said thinking of her friend Lily telling her about her trip to Gringotts in Diagon Alley.
"SANDS! They're coming in, there's a bunch of Aurors, Prater you take the first three, Sands you get the second, I think they might be bringing them in divisions. Smith you get the third set, Lang, Johanson, Cihon, and Chambers you do the same. Oh and Galway you get the other sections, see if you can get people from magical bugs (floor 2) over here, we'll need all the help we can get.
"That's not comforting," Kallie Prater whispered to her.
"No Prater, its not, but it was a bad attack." The Head MediWizard, Dr. Long said. At that moment cries of pain and panic filled the floor. "Alright everyone! Go to it!" Kallie took the first three, which ended up being the worst off, and the order seemed to go like that: the worst to the least injured.
Kira took her three, which were as bad off as the first and covered in blood. Once in the room she moved to the man who was bleeding profusely out of his stomach. She quickly poured a Blood thickening and replenisher potion and went to the next man. Whose glasses were broken, obviously, as he only had half of them and fixed his broken arm and his head injury, and then off to the last man whose sandy brown hair was covered in blood and whose leg seemed to be cut from his thigh to his knee. She fixed him up and checked to see any minor injuries and then went to see if everything was taken care of.
And then she saw her, Lily Evans, her best friend. Covered in blood and tears lying unconscious on a cot next to a man who was missing a few fingers. But Lily, her brave friend Lily, who had always stuck up for everyone looked as though she was near death. And there was nothing she could do.
"Nothing I can do." She repeated and with one last look at her friend she ran down the corridor and to the room with her patients and cried. It was the first time she had cried since Potter and Black had pranked her in second year but to her it felt good. She didn't know how long she was sitting in the corner crying but soon she felt she couldn't anymore so she did what they had taught her in MediWitch School, make your patient comfortable as humanly possible. So she did.
She observed the faces and saw that they were probably her age, 20 and three years out of whatever school they had come from. The first boy she treated had black hair and what would have been a joyous face had the situation not been so grave. She supposed that standing, he would have been an inch or two over six foot. The friend next to him who had half a pair of glasses, which she took off, had messy brown hair, she wasn't sure if it was because he was in an attack or it was just messy. She picked up the half pair of glasses and put a duplication spell on it and back on the bedside table. The third boy, or man, was perhaps a bit shorter than the latter two with very sandy hair with grey flicked in it, he looked thinner than the other two also.
"I hope they're alright." A voice said behind her, it was Dr. Long. "An eye witness said these boys put down a lot of Death Eaters, but they'll be here for a two weeks at least, very brave men." Kira nodded and looked into her mentor's eyes and saw a flash of something she had never seen there before, fear. But it soon subsided and she saw hope renewed and with a pat on her back he left.
She sat in the hospital room for who knows how long reading books and glancing up to see if her patients were ok. Because that's what you did, mind your patients. Or in the words of Kallie 'Mind your patients, expecially if they're Aurors, 'cos someday they could be saving your butt.' This earned her a half glare- half smirk from Dr. Long. Kira was pushed out of her reveries by a slight cough.
"Lord bless you you're awake!" She cried as she went over to the first patient she treated. "How are you feeling?" She asked quietly, knowing it was an annoying question but one that needed to be asked.
"-hurt-." Was the only thing he could get out so she picked up a silver goblet with a Pain Reducing potion and slowly helped him sip it. The paleness in his face seemed to leave and some color came back in. "Thank you." He whispered hoarsely.
"Don't you worry one bit, I'll go get you some food and could you tell me when these gentlemen wake up by hitting this indicator." He nodded and then looked at the other two men and breathed a large sigh of relief.
"Are they going to be okay?" He asked her. 'They must be friends or partners then.' She thought. 'They do look familiar though.' A voice in her head was saying. 'You think everyone looks familiar.' She thought back and her head was silent.
"They should be fine, but tell me, is that boy always that thin?" She asked pointing to the sandy haired man he nodded. "Alright I'll go get your food Mr.-?"
"Black, Sirius Black." He said regaining some composure.
'Ha! I was right.' Her head thought back after its silence. She smiled in acknowledgement and left the room. She was willing to bet that those two boys were James Potter and Remus Lupin. It was too much especially since Lily was hurt. She came back ten minutes later with three trays of hospital food, not her favorite, but at least she didn't have to eat it. When she returned the other two were awake and sure enough Potter had put his glasses on. The successful part of her job e.i. them being cured was done with but for the next two weeks she had to be there to make sure they were ok.
Kira's POV
"Ah good, your here." Potter said scratching his head. "My name is-"
"Potter and that's Lupin." She said jerking her head toward Remus who looked part tired and part shocked.
"Yeah, how did you know?" He asked.
"Lucky guess. Anyways, any allergies to foods, materials, potions, or spells that we should be aware of?" This is so routine, but I'd rather be safe than in Azkaban for killing some one. Potter and Black are shaking their heads and Lupin is nodding.
"What are you allergic to?"
"Silver." He said simply.
"Alright then, I will go get you a bronze goblet and take care of any silverware." Anything that gives me an excuse to leave. I only get a five minute break... with that she entered and the three were talking animatedly. It looked as though Lupin was having someproblems talking loud and Potter and Black seemed to have trouble hearing him. 'I suppose i could help.' Simply using a moving spell i moved Lupins bed closer to the other two. He said a quiet thank you and they went back to talking.
'Reading isn't so bad, all i have to do is read and make sure they don't die.'
"Sands! A word." Dr. Long said from the hallway. I jumped up and quickly obliged. "Miss Evans is awake and you may visit her once you check something out for me."
"Thank God, yes what do I need to do?"
"One of your patients, Lupin, could have more injuries and I need you to check for 'transformation' injuries." He said knowingly.
Definitely not understanding.
"Sir?"
