Fearful for a friend

[Sylvia Snape]

Sylvia arrived at the hospital, She was fearful for Shayla. She had lost about 2 ounces of blood, and she was very pale and stiff. She called out loudly, "We need a doctor, Hurry up." She was crying herself, as she held her dying friend in her arms. She looked around and cried loudly, "Someone, Come now." She sat Shayla on a bed and looked down at her, Her hand was bloody from where she was trying to stop the bleeding, Her clothing and body soaked in blood.

She kept hold of Shayla's hand and spoke softly, "Please Shayla, Dont die on me." She began to sob as she held her friends hand in her own.

Shayla spoke in a soft chocked whisper, "Sylvia, Why... Iris... Why.." She started to choke hard and then stopped speaking, Sinking into the bed and crying softly.

[Sylvia Snape]

Sylvia listened to the muttered words and her tears become more steady. She looked away from Shayla and cursed to herself, She knew how dangerous that Iris was, Why hadnt she done something to protect Shayla, Why didnt she tell her sooner. She turned back to her friend and spoke firmly, "I promise that she wont hurt you, Ever ever again."

Shayla shook her head slowly as she blacked out, Her eyes drifting slowly closed, Her hand falling limp in Sylvia's hands.

[Sylvia Snape]

Sylvia stood seconds afterwards and rushed to the hallway, She yelled out, "We need help, Over here now, She is dying." She crunched her hands into a fist and spoke loudly, "Now, People, Move now." She looked around crying and angry.

[Iglesia Johanson]

Iglesia was working overtime to make up for her son's latest mischief. It wasn't her normal department to be in, but this is where she was needed. She had just clocked in for her shift. Coming in early, she didn't like it. When she reached the first floor, she heard yelling. Show time whether you like it or not, she thought to herself.

Iglesia reached the girl and looked at her she wasa crying and was angry. "Tell me, what's going on here?" she asked in a kind voice.

[Sylvia Snape]

Sylvia turned to her friend, Who lay unconsciece on the bed and spoke, "I found her in the forest, I believe some kind of animal has bitten her." She lied to protect Iris, Although she hoped it wouldnt risk Shayla's life either. She held firm to her choice and moved towards the bed, Her voice softening, "She has lost a ton of blood, Which you can see." She pointed to her own body, "She is just getting frailer and frailer, Please just help her." She looked to the woman with sad eyes.

[Iglesia Johanson]

Iglesia entered the room, ignoring the girl on the bed. She wouldn't take in her surroundings until after she washed her hands. Something that most new healers needed to learn. Do not even give a sideways glance until you are ready.

turning off the faucet she turned around and looked. There was blood everywhere the girl on the bed brought back a memory from months ago, but Iglesia pushed it off to the side. She slowly approached the bed, making sure not to slip in the blood that was on the floor. Narrowing her eyes, she looked the girl over. First thing first, she needed to stop the bleeding.

Following the blood trail, she noticed a bite mark. Blood was pouring from it. Upon further examination, she noticed it hit a main artery. She swore to herself silently. A quick wave of her wand a bottle of salve appeared by the bedside. She applied it to the bite marks and the blood was slowed down, but she still losing too much too fast.

The blood is fresh, and it's fresh on her clothes as well as the clothes on the girl out in the hall. I don't know what bit her just yet, but she lied about finding her in the forest, she thought. "Hey! Get in here!" she yelled out at the girl.

[Sylvia Snape]

Sylvia had been following the doctor and turned to her when she spoke, She looked to her and spoke softly, "Yes?" She looked down at the wound, It had slowed down, But it was still losing to much blood. Sylvia wished to protect iris, But she wouldnt let Shayla die, She couldnt sit here and watch her die. Perhaps there was a way to say that it was a vampire bite, But she didnt reckognize the vampire. She knew this could work and decided she would go with that if she was asked again.

[Iglesia Johanson]

"You lied. The blood is too fresh for you have found her in the woods. A main artery was hit and within 5 minutes, she would have bled out and died," Iglesia said putting the stopper on the salve bottle. Her eyes went to the girl standing there. "You saw the attack or if you even arrived later, you should have heard it. I need as much information from you. If you want her life to be saved, tell me the truth."

She got up, closed the door and locked it. "You can confide in me. I will even swear an oath not to repeat what you tell me," she said, the truth showing in her eyes and voice. "Both she and I need the truth."

[Sylvia Snape]

Sylvia looked down at Shayla fearfully and then turned away from the woman, she spoke softly, "About it being in the woods, That I am not lying." She turned back and tears stained her cheeks again, She spoke softly, "I arrived in the woods, The edge of the woods." She looked down at Shayla, "I found her crawling back towards the castle, A line of blood behind her." She let a few tears fall and then spoke again, Moving closer to Shayla, "I know it wasnt an animal, Of that I am most positive." She could still tell that her friend had done this, Shayla would not have strayed so far, Unless led by a friend.

Sylvia turned to the woman, "She was attacked by a vampire, More importantly, Her best friend." She leaned over and brushed Shayla's hair back from her face, She saw the lifeless body that lay before them and spoke, "Please, Can you stop the bleeding?" She looked at the blood still soaking the bed and floor.

[Iglesia Johanson]

Iglesia was now getting soaked in this girl's blood as well. "I'm trying my hardest to stop it. That salve is working, but not very well. The venom isn't helping either. it's spreading rapidly through her body because she was bitten in an artery," she explained, sounding strained.

Taking out her wand, she bit her lip and started muttering healing spells and charms. A potion for the venom would serve just yet, the blood needed to be stopped first.

[Sylvia Snape]

Sylvia swore and moved to the other side of Shayla. She cradled the girl and spoke softly, "Common Shay, You cant die on me." She watched the doctor and then spoke softly, "Say the blood isnt stopped quickly, Is there blood we can give her? To replace the lost blood?" She was thinking out of frustration, She needed something, anything to save her friend. She closed her eyes and locked her hands together, She began to pray outloud, "Please dear lord, PLease save my friend, She didnt deserve this, No one deserves this." She said a small almost inaudible amen and then laid her head beside Shayla.

[Iglesia Johanson]

"Blood replacement in the means that you are thinking are a practice of muggle medicine, and by the time I got everything set up for that, it would be too late," Iglesia explained in a strained voice between spells. Getting closer to the artery, she reached for the salve bottle. Good thing thegirl was unconscious, she would be feeling imense pain from the salve directly on the artery.

[shaylafaivre]

Shayla awoke softly and grabbed hard on Sylvia's hand, Her eyes were squeezed shut and she hissed softly. ONce the fit was a bit calmer she opened and looked directly at Sylvia, She spoke softly, Between coughs of blood, "Please do not be mad at her Sylvia, It isnt her fault." She coughed and blood came from her lips and her neck. She turned to the dr and then closed her eyes as she laid back down.
