A.N. And now we get in to the actual story. This chapter and the next chapter are two parts of a whole, I'm just posting it in two parts to try and decrease confusion. I will answer potential questions in the authors note for part two. (Whew. I finished this finally)
He woke up in a strange rom that he had never seen before with a kindly woman standing over him. He stared around at the great high ceiling and the hospital beds scattered throughout the room. He frowned as the woman spoke. "Just wait a minute dear. Candice? He's awake!" A younger woman dressed as a nurse rushed into the room. "Where am I?" he asked. His northern accent seemed new and familiar at the same time. "You're in the hospital wing at Hogwarts." Candice replied. She had a quiet voice that seemed to echo in the quiet. "Did you miss the train?"He thought harder but came up with nothing. "Look." he said, his frustration evident. "I don't even know who I am. I definitely don't know anything about a train." "I hope you don't mind that we looked through your things." the older woman cut in. "Your name appears to be..." She consulted a scrap of paper. "John Smith. Here's your wand."
The newly named John Smith took the slim piece of wood he was given. It didn't look like much, but it was all he had of his old life. His only other belongings were a piece of blank paper and a strange metal wand with no discernible use. "Can I have a mirror?" he asked and was swiftly given the device. He peered into it and was met with the face of an 11 year old boy with a buzz cut, a leather jacket, and large ears. He flopped back on the bed and groaned. He would have to get used to his new life. But he heard the nurse say something about the next one waking up and stood shakily, eager to see which one of the strangers would wake next.
She opened her eyes, blinking away sleep. She was in some sort of hospital room being watched by a kid with enormous ears. "Wh-where am I? Who am I?" she asked, a little nervous to hear the answer. She saw the nurse press a few things into the boy's hands and whisper something into his ear. "Hello." he said in a northern accent. "I'm John Smith. At least, that's what they told me. And you are..." He stared at a tiny bit of paper he was holding"Rose Tyler. And as for where you are, this is the Hogwarts hospital wing. Don't worry, I've absolutely no idea what that is too." He handed her a small wooden stick with a floral pattern on it. "And this is your wand. It's supposed to help you do magic." She stared at him blankly.
She was called Rose Tyler. That didn't make sense, but then again, neither did a lot of things. John Smith opened his mouth to speak again. "I'm guessing you want this." He passed her a mirror and she peered into it. She had straight blonde hair and appeared to be wearing a hoodie. She sighed. "So." she said, gesturing at the six other full beds. "Do I greet the next?"
His eyes snapped open and he stared down at himself, trying to fix the spots in his memory. He was dressed in a pinstripe suit and sand shoes. His light tan trench coat spilled off the bed and onto the floor. He looked around the room, taking in every detail with a single glance. His game landed on a small handheld mirror. He grabbed it, staring into its depths. He ran his fingers through his messy brown hair that would probably never lie flat, though without his memory, it was hard to tell. He finally registered that he was being watched and looked up to see a blonde girl and a boy- those ears really were enormous- of around 11, the age that he had assumed he was. "I don't suppose you know who I am." he said in an accent somewhere between english and scottish.
It took the girl a second to reply."Actually, we do know your name, but that's about it. We're just waiting for the others to wake up so we can figure out where we are." He nodded. "And what is my name?" "John Tudor. Bit fancy for my tastes." John Tudor nodded again. "And you are?" The blonde smiled sheepishly. "I'm Rose Tyler and this is John Smith. Here's your wand and things. John Tudor took the proffered items and was looking through them when the girl next to him opened her eyes.
A.N. At this point, I gave up describing wands. I'll include descriptions after part two of this chapter. Sorry about the confusingness. It'll get better eventually...
She slowly opened her eyes and looked around. She was in a large room that she didn't recognize. A girl with straight blonde hair and a boy in a leather jacket sat next to a boy with hair like a hedgehog. "Who are you?" she demanded. "Well." hedgehog hair said. Apparently I'm John Tudor and this is Rose Tyler and John Smith." "Welcome back to consciousness Donna Noble." the blonde, Rose, said. "Is that my name?" Donna asked and Rose slowly nodded.
"Oi, hedgehog hair. Ya gotta mirror?" Donna asked. "My name's not hedgehog hair!" the boy yelled. "It's John Tudor!" He reluctantly passed her a mirror. Donna snatched it from his grip and gawked at her reflection. She had shoulder length straight red hair and green eyes, but when she searched her memory, she found nothing. She slowly stood up and walked over to the boy laying in the next bed over.
