I stood on the pavement of a muggle highstreet looking round at the sea of people.
I had no idea where i was, i had been looking for kings cross station but i'd gotten lost on the way.
I felt myself start to panic as the sun started to set.
I felt my heart thud faster as i saw a crowd of drunk muggle men start to stagger towards me.
"Lost are we beautiful?" One of them slurred at me.
I started to back away silently. One of them grabbed my arm and i froze, terrified.
"Don't go yet love, we were just starting to have some fun." He said, looking me up and down.
I felt sick and tried to pull me arm away, only for him to grip it tighter. I tried to scream out but my voice got lost on it's way up to my mouth.
I winced in pain as he twisted my arm roughly.
"You're not going anywhere." He said reaching out and grabbing my other arm, pinning them to my side.
"H-help!" I manage to cry out weakly.

I make my way down the street, being jostled by muggles.
It was really starting to piss me off, did they have to walk so close together so they walked into people?
I stop in the middle of the pavement.
Now which way?
I turn around at the sound of people fighting.
A load of drunks picking on someone-...Izzy?
"Hey, what do you think you're doing?" I say loudly, making my way over to them.

I look up at the sober voice of someone familiar. It was Ian, thank merlin.
"Ian!" I shout, trying to get away from the guy that was holding on to me. "Get off me." I say weakly to no avail as he holds on tighter.

"Hey, come on," I say to the guy, putting a restraining hand on his upper arm, "Just back off, alright?"
No violence, no violence, no violence...You promised no more violence...

"What you gonna do if i don't?" He sneers at Ian, tightening his grip once again on me.
I cry out in pain as i feel something click in one of my arms.

"Force you," I reply blankly, "But I'm hoping it doesn't come to that, now let go."

The drunken guy snorts in disbelief, pulling me away slightly.
I give Ian a pleading look, i just wanted to get out of here.

"Let go of her, I'm not going to say it again," I say, trying once more to not resort to violence.

"Like you could do anything." He laughs, gesturing to his other drunken friends with a nod as he still holds on to me.
Tears stream down my face silently from the pain in my arm.

"Come on, man, I don't want-...fuck it." I mutter, throwing a hard punch at his jaw.

The man staggers backwards slightly before falling, bringing me down helplessly with him.
I hear a crack before i feel the pain as my head hits the pavement.
I the drunken mans friends back away slightly, not wanting any trouble.

I arch an eyebrow at the rest of them, fucking cowards.
Then crouch down next to Izzy, noticing how hard she'd hit her head, "Come on, can you stand alright?" I mutter.

I blink, confused. momenterily forgetting were i was.
I nod pulling my arms out of the drunken guys grip.
I wince in pain from my left arm.

I help her up gingerly, not wanting to hurt her anymore than she already was, "Where does it hurt?" I ask, in a bid to distract me from the burning guilt in my throat.
No more violence didn't last long, did it? If she could have seen you then...

"Head...left arm." I mumble dizzily, i could barely think from the throbbing in my head.

"Well, where were you heading to?" I ask, slightly unnerved by how dazed she was looking.

"Erm..." I say quietly, racking my mind to try and remember. "I don't know." I admit.

"That's probably not a good thing," I say, "St Mungo's sound good right about now?"

"That's a hospital right?" I say, reconising the name from somewhere in my mind.

"Yes, that's a hospital." I tell her.

I nod. "Where are we?" I ask, looking round.

"That's a good question," I say, glancing around, "Muggle London...can't be any more specific than that."

"Muggle...? What's a muggle?" I say, knowing i knew the word from somewhere. My head was hurting to much to think at the moment.

I raise an eyebrow, "I'll explain later...uh...this way..." I say, starting off down a street, not entirely sure if it was the right way or not.

"Okay." I reply quietly, walking unsteadily after him.

"You know who you are, don't you?" I ask as the thought that she might not strikes me, turning round again.

"Oh course i'm...i'm..." I pause desprately trying to think of my name, trying to ignore the extremely painful throbbing in my head.

"You're Isabella Knox." I remind her, "Remember?"

"Knox...yes that's me." I nod, the surname being familiar, the first name not so much.

"Isabella?" I prompt, "That's your first name."
