Right to the DISCLAIMER today: Rowling is awesome she owns: Tom Riddle of course, (drools) Viktor Krum, (drools) Sirius Black, (drools) Remus Lupin, (drools) Credic Diggory, (drools) and Alastor Moody (drools). Oh and all those other...supporting characters in Harry Potter. (She owns the story, but just saying that would have been way too short.)

I had a "reliable" source read this one so...? I'm not sure what I want to say, concerning that...

REVIEW!

ANYTHING! JUST SAY SOMETHING! FLAME EVEN!

CH 6

Once again, Riya woke irritatingly to the hospital wing. Her legs were completely bandaged, but the blood stains on it were... different might be the word, from what she expected from her fall.

There wasn't anyone to try and talk to her today which made it really boring to have to stay lying in a bed for very long. At least when you can't sleep any more than you already have it does. Riya didn't feel comfortable openly admitting her boredom, but eventually surrendered to looking around at the other beds. Fairly full today. The bed on her left had a curtain pulled, the one two spaces to her right had a boy, almost too old to be a punk in it. His face, which went swollen and then not again, was a light blue, while his body, that was mostly exposed and frail, was bright red. "Wizards really are idiots.." She would have laughed if she could. The next seemed "normal" his bed was surrounded by those kids who play on brooms cheering, but the parts she could see of him were all badly bruised. Too bad about magic though, not enough of the patients bleed for very long. A boy with scratches all over his face staring at her, a girl with lumps on her nose, another boy also with scratches on his face staring at her...!

Riya had just noticed, to her dismay, the three dumbasses. "And what the hell do you all want?" They all just glared at her, like they were blaming her for something.

"You wasted our night!" She expected that from the other two, but it came from the chubby, usually nervous one. His friends actually told him to shut up for it though. Still, he wasn't making any sense, and these were the last wizards she wanted to talk to right now, or any time.

"Unless you were planning to do something to me I don't know how I could have, imbecile." The three stooges might have pounced on her right then if there hadn't been a groan behind the curtain. They all went quite after that and stared now at the figure that was slowly opening the curtain, he had big scratches like the rest. Remus! At first he stared blankly at his friends muttering something about chocolate, but then after a minute or so of daze he opened his eyes at them in horror.

"Riya how are you feeling!" Remus' friends frowned at being completely ignored; he didn't say so much as "hey" to any of them. He rudely looked carefully all over at Riya for something and then sighed when he had finally finished.

"What was that about? Pervert?"

Remus turned as red as the boy that was swelling up to her right. "I just wanted to make sure that you were okay." Was he this bad of a liar with everyone? Seemed like he wouldn't be able to hid anything he wanted to, for very long. Riya would have ended things with him right then if she didn't so much enjoy the anger of the morons standing right behind him.

She used her pity voice, "It hurts so much. I can't move my legs." She could, and nothing really hurt either, but this was fun. Remus looked even more worried even though it hadn't seemed possible. His friends looked even more pissed too, which made it hard not to smile.

"Can I get you anything at all?" Nice. He was injured himself, but acting like a servant.

"Nothing... but... I am feeling a little crowded." Riya motioned to the other three. Remus turned to them silently pleading that they go back to there beds. At first no one moved. Remus whispered something though and they reluctantly obeyed after giving him a.. she couldn't figure out what kind of look. Then Remus looked back at her smiling and waiting for any further orders.

".. Did you guys get in a fight or something?"

"W.. What! No, why?"

Riya shrugged, not really caring, "You all have the same type of injuries..."

"Oh. We all fell."

This wasn't going to go anywhere. Wasn't he over at her bed to make her comfortable? "So, what do we do now?" Remus turned his eyes down and smiled wider for a moment. When he looked back up at Riya sitting there, he grinned jokingly at her.
