Girty walked slowly into the hospital wing just as the sun was rising above the hills. She was shattered and had a fair few cuts on her. She had gone back to the common room to put on some fresh robes before she went to get healed. As she walked in she sat down at the edge of an empty bed and lay back on it. Her eyes started to drop and her body felt relaxed. Every muscle i her body ached and her stomach did not feel to good either.

Thom pushed open the hospital wing door as quickly as he could. The curtains were will drawn in the large room, but there was enough emerging light outside to see the sizable cupboard which Dumbledorable kept all her ingredients, remedies and potions in. He glided over to it silently, and took hold of the chain that was coiled around its handles. He pointed his wand at it, and was about to mutter an unlocking charm when he looked to his left.
Girty Hubbles lay on one of the far beds, her legs handing off as she stared up at the ceiling, cuts and bruises all over her. He froze, staring at her for a long time, unsure if he should slip away without her knowing or not...

Girty heard a noise over had the far side. It sounded like a chain. She moved her head to the side to see if she could see anything. It really hurt her neck and she let out a short groan. "Who could be around at this time?" she thought. Using the last bit of her strength she pushed herself up. "Oh God" she fell backward back onto the bed wishing she never moved.

'Hello,' Thom said a little stiffly as she looked at him before falling back again. He should have realised that Girty would be here after all the commotion in the forest. She had been quite badly hurt by the other werewolves - of course she would have had to come here.
He let go of the chain, his arms dropping to his sides to play with his robes anxiously. 'Are you okay?' he asked in a deep voice. 'You got rather hurt.' he felt tremendously stupid - he would have left if it wouldn't have been rude to leave her in such a state.

Girty listened to Thom over her own breathing. "Well I'm tired." She laughed "I'm tired, i fell sick and my body aches." She struggled to get up again. He was being kind enough to stay she should at least look at him. She sat in a very bent over position as her back could not stand the pressure. "How are you?"

'Oh... erm - I'm fine. Novella and I didn't really get hurt or anything.' He immediately felt like kicking himself. Thom and Girty spoke very rarely now - why did Novella always have to pop up at the most inconvenient moments?
'I don't think the nurse is about... do you want me to get some stuff? I'm good at potions, I could do it I think...' Thom said meekly, gesturing to the chained up cupboard.

Girty smiled at Thom. "Well I'm glad neither of you go hurt." Girty tried to be gracious when he mentioned Novella. What not even a scratch! She yelled in her head wondering how the hell she always ended up getting cut of badly.
Girty looked at Thom and though of his offer about a potion. "Well cousl you do something to get rid of this sick stomach of mine. Never eat snake Thom it does not go down well." she stopped and thought "I'm not even sure what type of snake it was...it was too dark to see any markings."

Thom sighed silently to himself, relieved that she had not reacted bitterly to the mention of Novella. He walked over to the cupboard and magically unlocked the chain, letting it fall to the floor loudly. He then opened the heavy doors and proceeded to take out three labeled bottles. 'Not many snakes in the forest are edible.' he said, although he was quite sickened by the thought that Girty even remembered chewing on it. 'Most are poisonous - I'm surprised you managed to walk here...'
He stepped over to her, setting down the three bottles next to the bed. 'You don't need anything special.' he poured two different potions into one beaker. 'Drink this.' he said, handing it to her. 'You have to take this one an hour later.' he tapped the third bottle that was still unopened.
He looked about himself awkwardly for a moment, silent. 'Anything else?' he asked.

Girty smiled at Thom when he went on about them being poisonous. "Knowing my luck it was..so if i drop dead soon i will either blame it on your potion or the snake." She smiled and took the potion he had made in one quick swallow. "Well the if your offering your services..how good are you at fixing broken bones?" she laughed as she slid off her shoe showing a very odd looking foot.

Jac had been woken abruptly. Her head was pounding again. It was another blinding headache that was debilitating and nausiating. She pushed the door to the hospital wing open and walked towards her usual bed ... but from what she could see, someone was already there.
"Girty?" she croaked, "is that you?" She was squinting at Girty. Suddenly, she took hold of the end of the bed, she steadied herself. "Why are you -agh! here?" she groaned.

Girty turned and looked at Jac. She blinked a few times and smiled. "Hey. Well as you can see I'm in a bit of a state." She laughed and wiggled, as well as she could her foot. "But you do not look so well either." What is up?" Girty then took her shoe off her other foot and started to poke some of the cuts on that.

Jac lifted her hand to her eyes, shading them from the light, see, yeah, I can do that! she thought sarcastically. "Um ..." she said, blinking and squinting, trying to get rid of the blur in front of her eyes.
"Um ..." she said again, dropping her hand and taking hold of the bed, now with both hands. "Just a little headache." She swallowed down her nausea, and then tried to smile. "What happened to you?" she asked conversationally.

Girty looked at Jac. She was worrying her, she was not her normal self. "Here take this bed. You need it more." As she jumped off it she remember her broken foot and it collapsed under the weight. She fell on the floor with a thumb and a groan. "See it is empty take it." She mumbled and took hold of her foot. "What happened to me? Well my animal instincts kicked in and i ran around the forsest..but i hurt my foot on the stairs."

Jac's eyes were close, but she heard a thud which forced her to open them. When she saw several, blurry Girty's on the floor, she put a hand over her one eye and squinted at the Girtys.
"Well," she groaned, "you can have - " she couldn't finish her sentence. Her knees buckled under her and she fell, but she was still holing onto the bed so she didn't hit the ground.
Weakly, she pulled herself up and rolled onto the bed. "Thanks!" she muttered faintly.

Girty smiled and with her other foot helped push herself across the ground to near the bed. "Jac? I know this is going to sound like a stupid question but...are you alright?" Girty looked up at Jac with a look of concern. "Do you need me to get anything, which i can slid around on my bum to get?"
