Chapter 4
Most of the people in the building/hospital are squibs or wizards that are near squibs like Dr William. They can only do little magic and easy spells while squibs like Miss Everly cannot do magic.
Should this be a tomarry or drarry? I'm thinking tomarry only because it works with the plot :D But u choose.
This is a continuation of last chapter, well kind of :)

Miss Everly removed the leather that covered my mouth. "I want to hear your screams." Doctor Williams had said.
"Hmm, I wonder what I should do next." Williams muttered to himself before lighting up. "I know just the thing!" He crouched down and brought two things from the lowest tray, it was a beaker filled with some unknown substance and a knife.
Doctor Williams dipped the knife into the beaker and brought it to my my right hand. "W-what are you d-doing?" I yelped when he brought the knife even closer to my hand, it burned like fire. He didn't reply and only smirked. Suddenly he brought the knife down hard on my hand and let out a crazed laugh when he heard my scream. "Such beautiful noise!" He had said, delighting in my pained cries.
He started moving the sharp object, painfully slow too. Once he had finished with my right hand he grabbed my left one and carved something in it too. I moved my head to see what he had done. '007' was embedded into my right hand while some symbol was carved into my left one. The symbol on my left hand was strange though as my hand wasn't bleeding as profusely as my right hand and the blood (on the left hand) was a darker shade than my right. The symbol itself was quaint, it sort of looked like an upside down moon with a circle in its space, it was also turning black for some reason.
"Excellent." Doctor William mumbled, most likely to himself. I dropped my head back down as despair filled me when he brought the knife to my abdomen. Please stop, please stop, please stop, stop, stop, STOP!
Doctor Williams drew back as a sharp pain rushed through his hand, the hand that was holding the knife. He dropped the sharp object but that seemed to only double the pain. "I-inject h-him , hurry!" He shouted to Miss Everly. She quickly grabbed a syringe lying on the top tray that was filled with a golden coloured substance and injected me with it. I screamed as a fiery pain erupted everywhere.
Tears were pouring down my cheeks as I took on a new appearance, unbeknown to me. (He has the same appearance just like- DifFerEnt)
"Brat.." I heard someone murmur before my vision blacked out.

"H-harry.. are you okay?" someone whispered in my ear. I didn't know who it was but it sure brought some solace. "Please w-wake up.." the voice continued. They sounded desperate but I didn't want to open my eyes in fear of seeing Doctor Williams ugly face in front of me.
I just smiled with my eyes closed as the voice kept begging me to wake. Maybe if I don't open my eyes then I wouldn't be hurt? Maybe. But I recognized that voice, it sounded feminine, must be a girl, but what girl do I kno- Luna!
I bolted upright, almost smacking my head against my friend's. I whipped my head in her direction, hoping, hoping, it was Luna and not some trick of my mind. She smiled sadly when she realized what I was doing and hugged me tightly. "It's okay, Har, I'm here." she whispered soothing words in my ear as I sobbed my heart out, desperate for something other than despair that filled my heart.
"Shh, it's okay, I'm here," Luna murmured quietly in my ear.
After what felt like hours but was only minutes my sobbing eased and I calmed down. (I want to get on with the ship so bad *crying emoji*)
"Better?" Luna asked, stroking my hair. I gave a muffled 'yes'. "Good." she mumbled. "Do you want to talk about it..? What they did to you, I mean?" she implored tentatively. I thought about it and sighed when I reached my decision which was yes.
She hummed, "Go on then."
I sat up straight, though my head was still on Luna's chest. "T-they, they g-got this t-thing, uh, i-it looked like a s-spoon and they-" I choked on a sob as I recalled the events that happened a while ago. "Shh, continue if you want." I shook my head, I wanted to tell her.
"They s-scooped my e-eye a-and h-he took i-it a-and examined it!" My voice got higher the more I continued. I felt wet droplets fall onto my head and presumed Luna was crying. I didn't want her to cry!
My back straightened and I looked directly into her baby blue eyes. "P-please don't cry, Luna, I didn't mean for you to cry!" I tried wiping her tears but they only seem to keep on coming. "Continue." she expressed firmly. "What?" I said, confused. "What else did they do to you? I know there's more."
I explained to her what happened, crying a little when she started to uncontrollably sob. "D-did I do something?" I worried, trying to get her to calm down. "Those b-bastards! H-how dare they do th-that to you!" She suddenly screamed and I winced.
Her noises stopped and she looked at me shocked. I panicked, did I do something? what did I do?.
She seemed to see my alarm and rushed to soothe me. "I-its nothing you did! I'm just- Harry, did they perhaps inject you with something? Is there-" She abruptly grabbed both my hands and inspected them. She inhaled sharply when she saw '007' carved into my right hand and gasped when she saw that unusual symbol I had seen on my hand earlier.
(Here!!)
"Shoot.." My blonde friend muttered. I looked at her, bemused. She glanced at me but quickly looked back to my hand.
"Luna..? This means something, right? Why else would you be worried?" I queried, unsure. She sighed and stood up, dropping my hand in the process. "Watch." she instructed. My eyes instantly widened when she transformed into some weird creature. She had more pointy ears and sharper teeth, she also had slightly longer nails and her pupils turned to slits while her eyes darkened.
I gaped then finally asked her the question that was on my mind. "You- you look like the elves I've seen in some book back at the Dursley's! H-how!?" I yelled in surprise. She smiled, amused, until her face morphed into a serious expression. "They do experiments on us, Harry, Some of us here are magical and they want to experiment on that. I am an elf, a dark elf to be exact. You on the other hand is what I'm not sure of. Your hair looks slightly longer and your eyes seem to be brighter. Maybe you haven't fully transformed.." she explained, trailing off.
Experiments!? On us!?. I wished for something normal here, not whatever this is!.
"That symbol on your hand.. I've heard they wanted to test this new creature on someone, I didn't know that someone would be you. I'm sorry Harry! I should've told you this sooner!" Luna cried. I ran to her and caught her when she stumbled. (I've been listening to Maneater my Nelly Furtado on repeat since FOREVER its so good!! *Sobbing emoji*)
"Shh, its fine Luna dear, I'm sure you had your reasons." I soothed. (Ik he's too young to say dear or smth but its a habit of mine and its going in my writing too🥲)
Silence filled the room apart from Luna's occasional sniffle until all was quiet. I realized she had fallen asleep and smiled. I softly picked her up and laid her on her bed, tucking the white blanket up to her chin and kissed her forehead goodnight.
I know we've only known each other for a few days but she was my first friend and she seems really trustworthy. I instantly liked her aura, she's also very sweet. She's my best friend and I hope it's going to stay that way.
I sauntered to my bed and shifted to get comfortable. It's not been a good day for me so far and I doubt neither is tomorrow but since Luna is here and will be there for me then I'll be happy.
I smiled softly when I heard soft snores coming from across the room and slid my eyes shut.
Goodnight Luna.
