Mr. Kapoor's Office
 
The office for the library was stuffed with all manner of archival and divination knick-knacks. A study in organized clutter as it had been when he occupied the towers. The desk itself was a mass of stacks of paper, one of which was topped by what appeared to be a crystal ball paperweight. In the bookcase behind the desk, a collection of crystals and semi-precious stones as well as books on the subject. And off-ways to the side on the floor little dishes that held small amounts of dog food and water.

Kapoor is usually not found in his office, but from time to time he'll be asked for information which is best obtained in such a space as an office like this one.

The door was opened with a squeaky swing and still carrying Alexa Kennedy's body, Mr. Kapoor carefully took it from it's midair suspension and ceased the levitating charm, placing Alexa slowly onto the surface of the desk. It was a large desk with many drawers and lent itself surprisingly well to the situation. He took the most colourful item in the room, a 16th century throw blanket of extraordinary pigment and tossed it over her body to keep her from becoming too cold. With the blood loss, he hoped she was not in shock as he rummaged through drawers and odd little crannies in his shelving systems in search of the dittany until eyeing the drawer where he kept his memory potions and an odd assortment of memories.

He pulled it open and took the bottle of dittany, popped the cork and dribbled a few drops onto the torn surface of Alexa's face.

Alexa felt her face start to tingle and then burn a bit as Kapoor put the dittany on. She was suddely pain free in that particaular place... *sigh* Her eyes fluttered... well the eye that wasn't caked up with goop did anyway. An unfamiliar office came into view and she momentarily panicked. She tried to sit up but her body felt like lead. Turning her head slightly she saw Mr. Kapoor. "Wh-what happened, sir? Where am I?" she stuttered in shock. Her entire body ached and she felt like she had been run through the ringer.

Sabel slipped through the door and waited just to the side, incase the Professor needed a runner for any reason. He watched in nervous apprehension as the Professor tended to Alexa and let out a small breath when she came to. She looked horrific, but at least she was speaking. That meant she was pain free....right? He swallowed hard, trying to dislodge the lump that had secured itself at the back of his throat, wiping one hand coated in her blood on his shirtsleeve nervously.

Still feeling queasy, Lorcan walked into the Library office. When he heard Lexi's voice he could not have been more relived. He walked up to her and cautiously said. "Hi." He took her hand and stroked it gently.

"You're in the library office." He went on to explain what he could, while putting a hand on her shoulder. "You should lay down, Miss." He realized at that moment that he didn't even know her name. "You've suffered quite a wound there and it seems that you lost consciousness for a while." When he spoke he gave a small gesticulation towards the side of his own cheek. Only it was opposite of the side on which Alexa had suffered the gash.

"You've been healed. We applied some essence of dittany to your face and it seems to have sped the healing process. Your friends are with you and we'll be taking you to the hospital wing as soon as Healer Ashford has a space for you. It seems a lot of the students are coming down with such inflictions. In the meantime, how do you feel, Miss?" He asked, getting a better look at the student. She was still very dirty and her feet appeared to be...swollen?

"Miss Kennedy, sir. Alexa Kennedy. And... I- I -I feel horrible. My back hurts, it feels like I have more cuts back there" she took a deep breath and choked back a sob. "I-I-I. My feet hurt, as well as my left arm," she said as she raised it a little bit to get a better look from her non yucky eye. "Wh-why is my eye closed up like this? What HAPPENED TO MY ARM?!" she began to shout and shake as she saw her swollen and bleeding arm. She felt the bile rise in her throat and turned her head quickly as she vomited on the desk.

"S-s-sorry Mr. Kapoor... What happened to me? Was I in an accident or something?" she said as tears began to run out of her good eye and down her cheek.

HannahLongbottom 02-27-2010 06:24 AM

Lorcan wasn't surprised when Lexi didn't acknowledge him and concentrated on Mr Kapoor instead. He simply held on to her hand, feeling happy that she was alert enough to ask questions, even if she was panicking.

However, when she turned her head to be sick, he jumped out of the way just in time. Turning to Mr Kapoor he asked, "Sir, what did you mean when you said other people were hurt? It sounded like they'd caught a cold or somethin'" Lorcan hoped that did not sound too rude.

Tazenhani 02-27-2010 06:44 AM

And then after speed-talking her way through her pains, Alexa was vomitting. Sabel felt his gut lurch at the sound and sight, swallowing hard again; was he going to be the only one besides the Professor to keep the contents of his stomach in his stomach? He wasn't too sure and had to slide down the wall to sit on the floor just to keep his head from spinning.

He listened quietly, fearfully as the three exchanged words, frowning at the mention of other students obtaining injuries like Alexa's, like the one the Professor had. He put a hand to his head unsteadily; did Headmaster Tate know about this?

Kapoor's already rather large eyes flung wide open at the sight of the girl vomiting. As inapropriate as it was part of him was deeply impressed that the girl was even able to muster the strength necessary for such a spirited projectile. He took his wand and quickly vanished the vomit from sight, hoping that the smell would not linger upon his paperwork.

"It's alright, Miss Kennedy. You're under a great deal of stress, but try and remain calm. It certainly does look as though you've been in an accident." And, perhaps it was only the stress of the accident that allowed her to have forgotten how she obtained such markings. He'd heard of that happening with shock and trauma caused by terrible injuries. Her arm and her eye looked worse than anything else. "Do you think you can you walk, Miss Kennedy?"

If only it were a cold. Kapoor considered for a moment how best to say it without frightening the students, for he did not have an explaination as yet as to how all these students were getting hurt. "I do not know for certain how it is happening, but it seems that a lot of students are coming down with injuries which are very severe. I am not certain how they are getting them, but I will be letting the Headmaster know about them, if Healer Ashford has not already done so. In the meantime, try and stick together whenever possible to keep safe."

"Young man, may I ask you for your help?" He began addressing the young Gryffindor boy who'd followed them in. "The Headmaster should be notified as quickly as possible about this. Could you go up to his office and tell him that Alexa Kennedy has been severely injured and is being taken to the Hospital Wing?"

Alexa blinked her good eye a few times and swallowed hard, wiping her mouth with what was left of her shirt sleeve. She nodded blankly at Mr. Kapoor. An accident... okay that was... disturbing.

Alexa looked down at her feet and choked back another sob. "Uh, Mr. Kapoor... do you think you could fix my feet? M-m-maybe I could walk a bit better then... I think. I will probably need some help either way, I feel really weak," she said in a tiny defeated voice. She refused to look at either Sabel or Lorcan fopr she was hideous.

Lorcan listened to Mr Kapoor, his eyes widening. Since Lexi was there, and so poorly, he held back the question which he desperately wanted an answer to. He knew that by askingDo you think that someone is trying to hurt people on purpose?, he would upset Lexi and that was the last thing that he wanted.

Instead he asked a stupid one. "Could-could it be a potion sir? Lexi drank a potion and she thought that she was someone else... so co-could someone be putting a clumsiness potion into people's drinks?" He knew that he must have sounded like a total moron, but he had to ask something, he couldn't just stand there.

His attention was drawn back to Lexi. She seemed to have been completely mangled and she didn't seem to want to look at him. He stroked her hand gently, trying to let her know that he was there, that he didn't care how she looked, he was just glad that she was safe... or as safe as any of them could be at that moment.

He wanted to stay there. He wanted to know what was going on; to hear the answers to Lorcan's questions. But he also knew that he would do no good just sitting there, and Alexa had Lorcan, he would take care of her.

Scrambling to his feet he barely had time to let a 'yes sir' leave his lungs before he was out the door and racing down the hallway to the Headmaster's office. Maybe Headmaster Tate could fix her up quicker than the Healer; maybe he would know what to do. He felt the naseua rise again as he ran.

Kapoor studied the girls feet once more just to make sure what sort of magic was indeed used upon them. Trying for an educated guess, he moved his wand towards her feet and casted 'finite', hoping for the best. He also pointed his wand towards her arm to try and fix up her arm a little so that she could possibly be in less pain when they moved to the Hospital Wing. "Episkey!" He said quietly, pointing towards the areas of broken skin on it.

"A potion?" He hadn't considered that, but took great interest in it and saw it as valuable information. "I suppose it is possible. A clumsiness potion plus a romp with the whomping willow could effectively get some one seriously hurt." At least. "And, what do you mean she thought she was someone else?"

Before he could say much more, the Gryffindor boy had headed off. "You can meet us in the Hospital wing." He said quickly after the boy, hoping he might've heard him or done so of his own accord.

My Izzyyyyy love!
 
Reluctantly returning to Mr. Kapoor's office... she was kind of creeped out by the thought that she had bled and vomitted all over the place...Alexa raised her hand and softly knocked on his door. She had had the house elves clean up his blankie and it was as good as new, she just had to return it and ask Kapoor a few questions about that night.

HannahLongbottom 03-14-2010 10:15 PM

Lorcan walked through the Library miserably, wanting to see Lexi but not daring to go and ask the Fat Lady or one of the Gryffindors to tell her he was waiting to see her, incase they came back and told him that she wanted him to go away.

But then he saw her, knocking on Mr Kapoor's door. He was almost magnetically drawn to her.

"Hello," he said quietly.

Erindipity 03-14-2010 10:21 PM

Hearing Lorcan's voice Lexi immediately felt relieved as well as guilty... she had kissed Sabel... it was just one of those weird things that happened when she was all crazy scared and he was comforting her, but still.... I mean Lexi and Lorcan weren't actually boyfriend-girlfriend anymore... but still it felt like a huge betrayal.

Shaking all of that out of her head she smiled weakly, her eye still pretty swollen, though she could see out of it now, the gash still not fully healed. "Hey," she said, "I still have your boots..." DUH! But she was all awkward and whatnot.

HannahLongbottom 03-14-2010 11:12 PM

Lorcan was glad to see that she was trying to smile. "My boots? Oh, well, they're not important. How... how are you?"

He could have kicked himself for asking such a stupid question. She would talk to him when she was ready to, if she was ready to. He hated people pushing him to talk, why should Lexi be any different?

"Sorry, stupid question, you don't have to answer that."

Erindipity 03-14-2010 11:15 PM

She smiled at Nems and reached out to put her hand on his shoulder but thought better of it and instead dropped her hand halfway there. "I feel better physically, but I still can't remember anything other than it was dark and I could hear voices... I didn't tell you that though did I? Yeah that is all I can remember," she said to her friend.

HannahLongbottom 03-15-2010 12:39 AM

Lorcan watched as Lexi reached out to him but seemed to change her mind half way. If he were feeling braver, he would have reached out and taken her hand but he reasoned that she might not want anyone to touch her right now.

"Voices?" He frowned. "Like, they were hiding in a bush or they were invisible or something?" He sincerely hoped that was what she meant and that she wasn't cracking up.

CruppieMom89 03-17-2010 03:29 AM

Aaaand from the second floor to the fourth floor. Her ribs were beginning to ache and her chest was tight. She wasn't sure how much longer she could go, but she had to, for the sake of her friends. They needed her to be strong. She banged on Professor Kapoor's door. "Professor! It's an emergency! The Headmaster sent me to get all the professors! There are people attacking the castle... in the Entrance Hall. I have to keep going, but please, help!" And then she ran off yet again, hoping she didn't pass out in the middle of a corridor somewhere.
