Sydney lay in her bed, watching everything that was going on. As time had passed, people had left their beds, and the amount of people in the room had decreased. The severely injured had been moved to St. Mungo's, and people with minor injuries had been healed and had long since left the Hospital Wing. All the beds were still occupied, but the Healers had everything under control.
Sydney was sick of staying in bed. She wasn't at all tired. A healer came over to her with a potion.
"Sorry it took so long, there were so many other people who had to be transferred to St. Mungo's. The Healers forgot to get the potion a few times, but it's here now," the Healer told Sydney.
"Good, well, thanks," Sydney muttered.
"Here you go," he passed Sydney the potion, "It should work. We have to wait 12 hours after you take it and then we'll heal up the wound for the last time. Then you'll take the potion again. After 12 more hours, you can leave."
"So, I can leave in a day?" Sydney asked.
"If all goes as planned," the healer told her, "Now, just take the potion."
Sydney drank it. "That's disgusting."
"What did you expect? I'll be back in 12 hours."
Sydney sighed and continued to watch what was going on around her. It seemed to be much calmer in the room. Sydney figured all the healed people were gathering in the Great Hall again to discuss the repairs of the school. Sydney wished she could join them. Or maybe everyone was going home to their families. Sydney then remembered Drake. How many days had passed since he took the letter to Sydney's mum? Sydney didn't know, as she had been passed out for quite some time. She started to stare out the window and hope that Drake would appear.
