Svensson levitated Nicoletta Davis into the waiting room and propped her up on a chair. Then he pulled a book from his pocket, sat down in the chair next to her, and began reading. He figured he would stay until the nurse--Eloise, or something--saw to her, or she woke up, and then he would return to his office. Or something.

Nikki smiled a little as the healer said hello. Room number two, okay. Nikki nodded her head and turned as she headed slowly to the ward. Hoepfully the nurse would have something that would make her feel a little better. Maybe the calming potion thing would help...

Emily, still being unconcious just lay in rex's arms. She didn't know what was going on, where she was, nor weather she was even... being... Her face was still a shade of blue from the lack of air.

"Emily, can you hear me?" Rex asked her. "You will be ok" Rex told Emily.

Emily's broken right arm lay to one side, but then, from a slight movement of Rex's arms, Emily's locket that she had around her neck moved and Emily began to breathe again, faintly and barely, but breathing.

Clipboard in hand, Gabriella made her way back into the waiting room. According to the check-in sheet, there were only three patients currently waiting to be seen. The next up was a Gryffindor boy by the name of..."Fred Pelican," Gabriella said, speaking the boy's name aloud. Fred's injury was one Gabriella could definitely relate to, as she'd suffered from a terrible quidditch injury once, too. Oddly enough, she had been a sixth year Gryffindor at the time of her accident, too. "Fred Pelican," she said again.

Fred slowly got up as he heard his name called and hobbled quickly toward the nurse and exclaimed, "Aaaahhh", feeling a sharp pain come from his side and he fcollapsed to the floor before he could even reach the nurse. From the floor he said, "I'm Fred", blushing as he tried but failed to get up off the floor.

Dragging his feet as he moved into the waiting room, Jake collapsed onto the chair, shoving his bag up on one and laying across two or three as a makeshift bed. Heh. There was enough seats if more people turned up.

Coughing some more, and sneezing pathetically, Jake made himself comfortable for the wait.

At the sound of some poor boy moaning and groaning, Gabriella turned to find who she imagined to be Fred stumbling towards her. She started to open her mouth to encourage him not to stand if he was that weak, but then he collapsed, making her words no longer necessary.

Apparently he wasn't too badly hurt, as he was still talking, letting her know that he was indeed Fred Pelican. "No use in trying to stand back up, Mr. Pelican. I'll levitate you," she offered. "Mobilicorpus!" With that, Fred had been levitated and was now being led to the back.

OOC: Next post in Room 1 of the Hospital Ward and Healing Area, please.

Clipboard in hand, Gabriella made her way back into the waiting room. The place was thinning out now---only three patients remaining! With the small number of people present, it wasn't hard to figure out which one was Emily. Gabriella hurried over to the girl's side and knelt down. "Miss Moonfield, are you able to walk, or do you need to be levitated?" she asked. Ohh, nevermind that. With a child that was blue in the face, waiting for a reply wasn't even worth it.

"Mobilicorpus!" Gabriella called out. With Emily in tow, she quickly headed towards the back.

OOC: Next post in Room 1 of the Hospital Ward and Healing Area, please.

The door to the waiting room opened, and Gabriella stepped inside. Apparently, she had another unconscious student needing to be seen. Unconsciousness---for some reason, that seemed to be very common here at Hogwarts. At least Lars had accompanied the girl, so Gabriella knew she hadn't been left all to herself to battle whatever it was she was suffering from.

She'd make an announcement that Nicoletta and Jake were now being seen, but she thought it pointless since they were now the only two students left in the room. "Jake, you can head straight to Room 1. I'll be there momentarily," she said, glancing quickly at the Hufflepuff boy before turning her attention to Lars and Nicoletta. "Lars, I'm going to levitate her to room 3. You're free to come if you wish." With a quick wave of her wand, Gabriella had levitated Nicoletta and was now making her way to the back with the girl in tow.

OOC: Next post in Room 1 for Zoerawrr and in Room 3 for luna_severus_26, please. You can post in here first if you'd like. This is actually a triple post in here for me anyway.

"Mmmm?" Jake murmured, raising his head and looking blearily in the direction of the voice. Ahhhh, the Healer. The Healer who would probably force more of that evil potion down his throat.

Sadface.

"'Kay," the boy replied nevertheless, and, ever the willing patient (*gigglesnorts*) went through to Room 1.

Lawson was soooooo gonna pay.

It really had taken Reese 20 minutes to get up here - maybe even 30 minutes. Reese wasn't counting, but she knew it had taken at least 20 minutes, because she had stopped every now and then in every corridor she went in since the pain her left arm was bringing made her stop and take a break.

After signing herself in, she looked over at the chairs and then benches in the waiting room. She wasn't too sure if she should sit down considering she might not be able to get back up by herself, but there was NO way she was standing up the entire waiting time with her arm being sore and painful.

Sighing, she walked over to one of the chairs and sat down. She looked towards the door to the hospital rooms and hoped it wouldn't take long for Healer Ashford to help her.

Again, Gabriella would normally call out the name of the next patient and then search the waiting room for him or her, but there was currently no one but one girl waiting on her. Gabriella smiled politely then made her way over to Miss Reese Upstead, a girl she remembered meeting a few times before.

"Hello, Miss Upstead. Broken arm, hmm?" she greeted. "I'm sure I can have this mended and back to normal in no time. Why don't you follow me to room...two. Yes, room two is available." Gabriella nodded her head in the direction they'd need to go, then turned and headed that way.

Reese didn't like being in the Hospital Wing. Nope, she didn't. This was the first time she has actually came up here with an injury and she sure hoped it was her last. Finally taking her eyes off the door, she looked around the empty waiting room wondering when Torin was going to get there. He was the one that had actually fallen from the tree, so she was sure he was in need of more help than she was, but oh well. She got up here first, which meant the Healer was going to fix her arm first.

When she heard the Healer say her name, she turned towards the woman. "Hello," she simply greeted her. She sure hoped that the Healer could fix it and hopefully she wouldn't end up wearing a cast or anything either. She pulled herself up from the chair without using her left arm and then followed Healer Ashford into room two.

It had seemed like it had taken forever to get all the way up to the third floor from the grounds, let alone all the way to the Hospital Wing, but Adrienne had simply, well, kind of panicked about dropping Torin, or accidentally slamming him into anything on the way. And even though she had been fairly certain she was going to be able to keep her levitation charm going the whole way, it had taken a lot of her concentration and strength. Cause of course the one time she would have hoped someone would have come along to help her, it had seemed like everyone was occupied. Inwardly biting back a snicker as she thought about how ridiculous it had to look, her levitating someone significantly bigger than her through the corridors like he was going to break.

Carefully backing through the doors to the waiting room, she tried to hold them open as she maneuvered Torin into the room, then got him to one of the benches and set him down. He hadn't regained consciousness the whole trip up here, and if she hadn't occasionally superficially poked into his head to make sure it was still working, she would have been really worried. And, looking around the room, she noticed that Reese wasn't even still in there, which set her mind back to wondering exactly how long her trip had taken. Sighing, she dropped to the bench by Torin's feet and glanced back at him lying there. "I hope you wake up soon," she said to him quietly, pretending it didn't feel like she was talking to herself and hoping everything was going to be fine. At least she'd come across them right after he'd fallen, so he wasn't still lying out there.

With the Upstead siblings now out of the Hospital Wing and...sort of tended to, Gabriella made her way back up to the front to see if any other poor darlings had suffered any mishaps in the meantime. Checking the clipboard, she saw that a Torin Kane had fallen unconscious and broken a leg and an arm.

Entering the waiting room, she saw not one, but two, students sitting quietly and waiting on her. There was no question as to which one was Torin, as he was the only boy and the only one who looked to be passed out with broken limbs. "Hello, Miss," she greeted, glancing towards the girl who'd come with him. Her eyes flickered back towards Torin and, not wanting to waste any time, she raised her wand into the air. "To room two, we go," she said, swishing and flicking as she spoke. "Mobilicorpus!"

With Torin in tow, Gabriella carefully made her way back to healing area.

OOC: To Room 2, we go!

Torin still hadn't woken up, at least as far as Adrienne could notice, as she kept her seat by his feet. But then, a tiny part of her mind kept reminding her that it wouldn't be entirely impossible for the Hufflepuff to have regained consciousness but kept pretending otherwise just to get on her nerves. And it seemed to her like she was waiting for a long time, which was probably because of the current silence surrounding her.

Trying to keep from poking into Torin's head again simply out of boredom and concern, she was slightly surprised when she heard someone speak, and then turnd to see the new healer. "Hi," she said in return, standing up as the woman proceeded to transfer her attention to Torin. Tilting her head slightly to one side in confusion as another announcement was made, she took a step or two before speaking. "Do you want me to come with you? I mean, I can't say I know the whole story about what happened to him, but if you need any information . . ." She didn't want to follow, but then be told she wasn't needed. It was kind of a conundrum. To her, at least.

With Torin still in tow, Gabriella paused for a moment and turned towards the young girl who'd come with him. She figured that since she was so concerned with Torin's well-being and had been good enough to stay with him while he waited (although, unconscious) to see the Healer, she probably wanted to go inside the healing area, as well. "Come along, Miss," she said, nodding her head in the direction of the healing area. She'd have to get the girl's name sometime later. For now, she had one Torin Kane to wake up.

Just before leaving the waiting room for good, Gabriella noticed another Ravenclaw girl, this one a bit younger, make her way into the room. The poor girl looked to be extremely ill, so Gabriella decided to go ahead and dismiss her to the back, as well.

"Miss Santos?" she questioned, even though she was sure this was the girl who'd just signed the check-in sheet. She was, after all, the one and only child present in the room besides the two Gabriella was currently dealing with. "You may go ahead and proceed to room three. I'll be with you in just a moment," she said, giving the girl a warm, welcoming smile.

OOC: Room 2 for Torin and Adrienne, and room 3 for Annie.

OOC to all: If you see that I'm the last to post in here, it'd be great if you could make a post to prevent me from having to double post. It'd help me out a lot! Thanks, guys!

With patients now admitted to rooms two and three, Gabriella decided to quickly check the waiting area to see if there was perhaps one additional patient in there that she could send to room one. According to the check-in sheet, a little first year had recently checked in regarding a possibly broken arm.

"Miss Riddle?" Gabriella called out, poking her head into the waiting room. "You can come back now. There's a spot for you in room number one. I've just admitted two others into rooms two and three, but I'll be with you in just a moment." With a friendly smile on her face, she motioned for the girl to follow her to the back.

OOC: To room one, we go!

Fia came waltzing into the waiting room with a levitating and petrified Dylan. It was her only means in getting him here and if she got into trouble, well...then she would just get into trouble. There was no sense in allowing the boy to be hard-headed in going to his common room and frankly, she was not going to let him get away with this.

"Healer Ashford," she called out as the healer was no where to be found at the moment. "I need some help." She was calm in her words as to her, everything was fine, he just needed some serious attention.

Dylan was in the hospital wing. That had been the most uncomfortable trip he'd ever taken. He wanted to be put down. He wanted to sit, or something. This floating and lying was most horrible. PLEASE!

He'd also had a bit of a fit because he hadn't recognised where he was, but... well she didn't need to know that.

"I'm not saying for sure that that's what's happened, but... well there's not many explanations, other than someone having jinxed you and stuff. Which... definitely happened."

He shot a glance at her teeth, but didn't let his eyes linger. What possible reason could anyone have for doing these things to Madiison? Surely she lacked the ability to anger anyone that much...

... He did?

Curiously, Madiison peeked at Raiden from the corner of her eyes. She wanted to know what had happened that summer, but she pressed her lips together to refrain from asking him about it. She had better stuff to worry about at that moment. Like WHO had done THIS -points at her face- to her. And she thought she might get a better response if she sprung it at him at the hospital or something.

The red frowned at his next statement. Hmph. Of all the things this person could have done to her, they had to get her TEETH?! Her teeeeeth? Pout. Pout. Pout. It MUST have been a girl.

Really, it must have.

She was too cute for a guy to have done this to her.

Di looked around the waiting area and pouted. A part of her was glad that she had someone to accompany her here. Otherwise waiting would have been too boring.

In the Waiting Room light, Madiison looked ten times worse than before. Maybe because now he could better see all the scrapes and cuts she'd sustained, maybe because it was the first time he felt he could actually look at the smaller girl. But... well Merlin alive, what had happened? Sitting down next to her, his eyes locked on the arm closest to him, and his fingers twitched at the sight of what looked like... rope burn?

"Madiison what..." he stopped himself and looked at the other pair in the room, visibly alarmed. The floating one was in his house, and... he looked like... "What the hell is going on?"

It seemed like Madiison wasn't the only one that this had happened to? Raiden absently rubbed his own wrists, eyes wide. Had it not been some Ravenclaw in the common room then? It could have been anyone, now.

"Uhm..." he looked at the older girl who'd apparently levitiated the other here. Hufflepuff... what was her name? He'd never spoken with her before but he'd known it at least, and now he'd forgotten it. "Excuse me, but... what happened to him? And where did you find him?"

Kiri entered her name and condition in the book the healer had put up, managing not to drip snot onto it. She sneezed and flailed around for another tissue. It was time to get rid of this stupid cold - although by now she was pretty sure it was more of an actual flu. She had a fever, but in the cool entrance area of the Hospital Wing, she was freezing cold.

Shivering, Kiri wrapped her robe more tightly around herself and opened the waiting room door. She blinked. There were so many people in here! For a moment she wondered what had happened - did they get into a fight? Had they been injured during a lesson? Because most of them appeared to have similar injuries. Odd.

And Raiden was there as well... Kiri was glad to see he didn't seem to be among those in need of medical attention, but she wasn't exactly sure what she was supposed to do. Sit down next to him and talk to him? No. Either he didn't want to see her (although why he would feel that way, Kiri didn't know), or she'd probably end up infecting him with her flu or something. Besides, he was with someone - another girl, of course - so Kiri would just get in the way.

Another shiver ran through her. Right, this had to stop. She sat down a little way away from Raiden; if he wanted to notice her, he might, but if he didn't, Kiri could still pretend she hadn't seen him. Not such a stretch, she thought, wiping her puffy eyes to make the world less of a blur.
