When it all went wrong

Out of all the people, Fred and George never expected this situation. They had never thought of sitting in the leaky cauldron with Draco Malfoy but here they were. Fred had successfully explained to George exactly what they were doing there, sitting with Malfoy when they could've been looking for Iris.

"I didn't know her that well, but I knew her." Draco started.

"Wait, I can't exactly hear him..." George was slightly annoyed with how things were playing out. Fred nodded before whipping his wand. A quill and parchment appeared before them, "Tap your wand over this quill three times" Fred told Draco.

"Why?"

"It will write what you say so my dear brother can read it because he lost his hearing at the war" Fred briefed.

Draco cocked an eyebrow but followed Fred's instructions anyways.

"So, who is Iris Menkem?" George asked.

August, 1997
Iris made her way to room 190 to find her sister splinched due to apparation.

"You'll be fine!" She told her sister who was crying in plain. Iris found some potions and slowly applied it to her wound.

St. Mungo's was a mess. The injuries, stuns and creature bites were much more than ever. As the war set into the Wizarding world, the amount of unforgivable and dark curses used were astonishing.

Once she finished bandaging Adeliene, Iris moved onto the next patient who took two powerful stunning spells to the chest. The poor boy was only 15 or 16.

Iris was one of the best healers of her age at St. Mungo's and she even made some great friends at that hospital.

One of them was healer Wells. The man was like a mentor to Iris and let her help through many complicated magic related craziness.

Adeliene was kept at the hospital by Iris' strict orders. The parents were already in hiding, Adeline was running from some death eaters and got splinched during her apparition. Iris refused to go into hiding. She wanted to work as long as she could but the time for her to leave was approaching. The ministry was starting to look for muggleborns and things were going downhill.

Iris sat next to Adeliene, talking to her about her day. The hospital was pretty much empty and the healers from the night shift were starting to arrive.

The wind outside was howling and the inside was quiet.
As time went by, Iris didn't realize when she slept but she did notice the sound that woke her up. There was loud stomping and  banging.

Iris stood up suddenly with her wand gripped in her hand and cautiously walked out of the room.

Snatchers banged each door open and checked for muggleborns. The girl shut the door again in panic and fear. Adeliene was a sleep because of the potion given to her and she wouldn't wake up anytime soon.
