Chapter 6 Anneliese left the shop very puzzled. She looked around and realized that she was all alone in Diagon Alley. She started wandering the appropriate stores buying her school stuff, however got caught up at Quality Quidditch supplies because Draco had gotten her thinking about Quidditch. You'd think her life was already complicated as it was, but it gets even more complicated when she gets close to Olivanders: Makers of Fine Wands since 382 B.C. There was a crowd around two gentlemen fighting about something stupid. Both miscast a spell, which bounced off walls. All ran in terror. Both of the miscast spells bounced off the wall and headed straight for Anneliese's head. She sensed the rogue spells, before they hit she ducked so the hit the wall and bounced back. But ducking didn't help her much. Because she stood up too fast, so both spells hit her square in the chest, knocking her backwards through wall after window after door and into a brick wall. She shrieked in pain. At that moment debris from the building crashed around her. Glass hit her face. She lapsed into shock. The only person to hear her rushed from Flourish and Blott's to the spot. What she saw nearly made her cry out. There were broken wood and broken windows everywhere. She looked for the source of the destruction, then saw a pool of blood which she followed to a certain spot where the building had collapsed. The young woman called for help and some paramedics came and removed the rubbish. When they stiffened slightly the girl went to see what they had found and was horrified. She actually screamed this time, because what she saw was the battered form of our hero Anneliese, a girl about her age. The fighters Arthur Weasely and Lucius Malfoy ran up, disrupting the security guards, who missed catching them. The men started kicking her and yelled obscenities such as, "God damn you bitch! You got in the way! Now we're both in trouble!" This went on until the girl got so mad that she blew up at them. "Will you two jackasses stop that already? She didn't do anything to deserve that! All she did was be in the wrong place the wrong time. Besides if you dim-witted fools hadn't been fighting in the first place this wouldn't have happened!" She paused to take deep breaths. All eyes were on her. She continued, "So you can not, blame her for something you did!" While she had been speaking the paramedics had put Anneliese on a gurney and rolled her into the ambulance, then one of them walked over to her and motioned for her to climb in, just in case. She noticed that Anneliese looked rather peaceful considering the fact she was almost killed. There was something about Anneliese's posture, face and general appearance. She thought that under all that grime, blood and glass that there was something pretty about that face. She also wondered what the face looked like. She asked what she could do to help, but was told to leave Anneliese alone. Suddenly the monitor plugged into Anneliese went haywire! Everyone worked frantically as they arrived at the hospital. One of the doctors working on Anneliese yelled out "We need someone wipe off the blood from her face!" They enlisted the girl to take a soft cloth and carefully to blot the blood off. There was something about that face. Now that she could see it, she was enchanted. She kept the blood staunched when there was movement from under the cloth. The doctors caught that movement. The girl watched as Anneliese opened her eyes, eyes the color of lavender, so deep you could drown in them. Privately the girl thought they were the most beautiful eyes she'd ever seen. They were very beautiful, although the pupils were slightly dilated right then. The doctor took her blood pressure and her heart rate under control. One of them yelled, "Might wanna get her out of here before doing anything." She was still entranced by Anneliese's wide lavender eyes when the doctor pulled her out. When she was gone the doctors began the process. I'll leave it at that because the process is very gross, to me at least. So we join the other girl in the waiting room. It was like withdrawal, not being able to look into Anneliese's fever bright, but deep lavender eyes. The only thing she could actually hear from the other room was shouts and a few words. It sounded something like this. "Hey! What the hell are you doing? Get away from me!" Then one of the doctors started sputtering. Hey what's this doing on? The people in the waiting have been listening. What a bunch of-"*click* All the people went back to what they were doing, grumbling the whole time.
