Mistaken Identities

Mariana jumped from her chair as someone she never saw in her life stormed into the room like a tornado without saying anything. She raised her wand again not sure who he was. "Who the hell are you if i might ask?" she asked pointing her wand at the stranger. Meeting strangers right now was making her be careful since what happened was rather weird and one can't ever be too careful. "This is an emergency room. Non-healers should not be allowed in." she said still wondering whether to curse him first or listen.

Khaat's head was seering. She could hear Mari from somewhere in the distance. It didn't sound good. Sounded like she was angry-- in a battle or something. She woke, feeling like she wanted to take her head off and put it on a shelf and come back for it later when it stopped hurting. The stupid lights were waaay too bright, and it took her a minute to focus. When things came clear, she saw Blaire first and then Mari.

"Blaire?" She frowned. "Mari? Where am I?" She began to look around to get her bearings. Oh. One of the St. Mungos emergency rooms. What on earth had happened? It took a moment for her to see that she was wearing the slimcut sleeveless, summery lemon yellow linen dress that she had put on early this morning---well, all but her white stillettos...Was it this morning? What time was it anyway? She had no clue. Hm...this room needed clocks, for goodness sakes.

"Sophia!" she remembered, her memory returning with a jolt. That made her head hurt. She jumped up, clutching her head at the sharp pain it sent from the top of her head, clear down her neck and into her back. Her knees buckled all of a sudden, and she clutched hard at Blaire to keep from falling flat on the floor. "Mari, this is an emergency, where are my shoes? Wait...on second thought, forget the shoes." She didn't know if she could walk in them anyway. "I have to go back upstairs," she looked at Blaire, hoping he would help her get upstairs. "I have to find Sophia. I swear, if anything happened to her...." her voice trailed off, not wanting to think of the alternatives. "We need to put this place on full lockdown until we can search and see if she's here," Khaat told Blaire and Mari. "Matt's going to kill me. "

Mariana lowered down her wand as Khaat jumped from her bed. "Oh no you're not going anywhere untill your father comes back. Him and Matt are already checking the place. Sophia? No there's only Phaedra, but she ... she didn\t make it.." she said pushing Khaat back to her bed against her will. Today, Khaat was her patient and she was Khaat's healer even though that included she had to order her.

"Sophia is apperently gone. You were found unconcious with 4 wands laying around. One was yours, other one was Phaedra's, and i am guessing 3rd one was Sophia's. Matt and your father are taking care of it, i;ll help them if needed, but you need to stay here you took quite a hit." she reported everything she saw so far though she had no idea what happened. She took a chocolate out of her pocket and gave it to Khaat."Eat that you'll feel better. Matt and your father will be back in no time." she said still taking care of Khaat so she wouldn't try to go upstairs.

OoC:No godmodding Mari, I'm going to ignore that

"Please put your wand down," he told the healer. "I was sent by the Minister, to look after Khaat." he said, which wasn't a lie. The Minister had sent him a letter telling him he should probably stop by the hospital and stay with Khaat until she came to. That was after he explained everything. "Really there's no need for that, you wouldn't stand a chance against me anyway." he said quietly. When he saw Khaat's eyes open he immediatly felt relieved, "Oh thank goodness you're alright." he sighed.

"You're in the St.Mungos emergency room, Matt told me to come and stay with you. Said you might need someone close when you wake." he told her. Then her and the healer started saying something about Matt, Sophia, and the dead Healer. There had not been anything about Sophia in the letter. "Wait, so..a Healer is dead, the Ministers daughter is gone...and the hospital is on lockdown?" he asked the both of them.

"Really Khaat you should stay off your feat." he told her chuckling and walking over to where she was now standing. He scooped her up in his arms and and walked back over to the bed, letting her down gently. "You need to rest, from what I heard you took quite a hit." his manner changing from angry, to confused, to sweet and gentle. "If they need an extra hand I can handle it." he told the healer. "You just make sure Khaat is alright," he told her. He looked back at Khaat, "Just calm down, Matt's daughter gets kidnapped quite a bit." he told her holding back a grin.

OoC:I had permission for the godmod from Khaat

Khaat thought hard. The last she remembered was that weird woman in a duel with her. Well, there was no way that woman was still here. She wasn't sure what she had hit at first...and then it came back.

"Oh, yeah. I remember. I lost," Khaat looked at Blaire. "It wasn't pretty. She picked me up and threw me into the fireplace. So that's how I hit my head. That's the last I remember. " She looked at him and at Mari. "But we lost Phae? How in the hell did one of my healers get murdered on my watch?" She was angry now. She liked Phae. She was going to find this woman if it took the last breath she had. The last place she needed to be was here--if it weren't for that small 'getting-up-and-walking" thing that seemd to be a problem. Well, that, and the facts weren't adding up as quickly in her mind as she would like.

Phae was dead, Sophia was kidnapped, and Matt and her father were midst investigation. Sophia had been kidnapped trying to protect Khaat, but she figured her father and Matt might have figured that out already. She wasn't sure. Well, perhaps Matt wouldnt kill her, but Khaat was definitely going to go hunting that woman who had torn her hospital apart.

Mariana had already lowered down her wand a moment before while she was taking care that Khaat doesn't try getting up again. "I couldn't care less if you were sent by the minister, i am still the healer here so you do your job guarding Khaat and let me do my job healing her okay?" she said with rather indifferent voice before she turned back to Khaat.

"Now, Khaat i fixed your upper arm. It should be fine in no time, but you need to tell me how do you feel? Do you feel pain anywhere else? Robert just gave me instructions, but he wasn't rather precise." she asked turning from Blaire to her boss to see if she needed healing anywhere else.

Her eyes looked at different direction for a moment with a sigh. Murders were never less pleasant. "I don't know what happened. By the time it took me to run downstairs Phaedra was already dead on the floor and you were here. When your father comes back we should have all the facts, but Sophia was kidnapped that's a fact. Do you think i should call Mrs. Lestrange?" she said telling Khaat everything she remembered so far though it was minimal.

"Lockdown? Well last time i checked everything seemed to be working normally though maybe Minister already ordered that while i was here." Mari replied though lockdown couldn't keep them safe forever.

"I never said my job was to guard Khaat," Blaire told the healer. "I was just sent here so Khaat could see a friendly face when she woke up." he stated firmly. This healer was rather...well nevermind. But from what he saw Khaat seemed pretty alright to him. "Khaat seems alright, did you see the way she hopped out of bed." he said chuckling. "I'm no healer, but I'm sure all Khaat needs is rest for now."

"I'm sure the Minister will call her," he told her. "It'd be better if she heard it from him." Then again, he wouldn't tell his wife if she was about to deliver twins. He was thinking to himself, not really alert at the moment. "I'll go see if you're father needs help then?" he asked Khaat. "I'm sure..he wouldn't want you out of bed."

"You just need to relax," he said to Khaat gently. "I can fill you in on everything that's happening if you like. Whoever did this is long gone, and I'm sure your father and the Minister are quite capable of searching for evidence." he said softly.

"Under the circumstances, I'm sure my father didn't have time to be precise," Khaat told Mari. "I'm fine. I just have a headache, but tonight is enough to be a headache to any director. Mari, I really do need to be up now. My father did not admit me, and this is an emergency. I promise that Blaire won't let me smack my face on the tile floor. " Khaat bounced back up out of bed and smiled and said, "Thank you, Mari. You did an excellent job. Accio!" She summoned her white stillettos, and clutched onto Blaire for balance. "Go," she told him quietly, "Go, go." She gave him a shove and pushed him out the treatment room door, still hanging onto him so she wouldn't fall on her face. "Now--upstairs. While we can still escape." she grinned at Blaire. "I'm a much better director than I am a patient."

Mariana looked at Khaat who seemed to be rather persistant. After all, who was Mari to blame her when she would probably acted the same. "Suit yourself, but i still think you need to lay down for a couple of hours more.." she said standing behind her waiting to see if Blaire was indeed to support her in the crazy idea of leaving her bed. By the time she got out of the room they were already near the stairs so she decided to follow them quietly since Sophia was her best friend after all and she needed to know what was going on so far,

“What do you reckon is going on?” Rob asked, looking around the Lobby of St. Mungo’s in disbelief. The whole room was silent and no one was moving. It was like a scene out of a horror film. Rob swallowed and opened the leather satchel hanging by his hip. He took out a vial of potion and walked over to the nearest chair. He waved his hand in front of the person’s face but got no reaction. It was as if the elderly woman had been scared into silence. You could have mistaken it for immobilisation but Rob didn’t buy it. He uncorked the vial and opened the woman’s mouth. He tipped the contents into her mouth and rubbed her neck, forcing the frozen woman to swallow the liquid. When nothing happened, Rob frowned and straightened up. Jen gave him a look of confusion and he mimed a beheading with his hand. Dead.

“You didn’t-” Rob stopped his sister’s sentence with a shake of his head and she exhaled in relief. “Good because-” He covered her mouth with his hand and listened carefully. He heard voices, familiar ones too. Rob growled under his breath and gripped Jen’s wrist. He dragged her across the lobby and threw her up the first lot of stairs. She landed more or less gracefully on her feet and he followed behind her. He knew Phaedra was in the children’s ward, well, that’s where she worked generally , but it was about finding said ward and he wasn’t going to take a lift. Rob froze on the staircase. Damn voices. Damn people. He couldn’t get a single thing done without his life intermingling with Khaat’s or any Lupin’s for that matter. But seeing as he did marry her it was to be expected. “What are you doing?” Jen hissed as her brother sat down on the stairs. “Sitting.” He said simply, looking through the rails and waiting for them to make their presence known.
