The contact walked briskly through the dark corridors, eventually making it to a far door on at the end. When he opened it, it was to reveal three people, two on the floor, and one standing. He turned his head to speak to the standing one.
"What's going on in here, Jason?" he asked.

Sophie heard someone enter the room.
"What's going on in here, Jason?" the man asked.
There was a moan, Sophie guessed that it was the man on the floor.
"Teaching this incompetent fool a lesson," Jason answered.
Memories began coming back to Sophie, although she couldn't remember how she got here. The voice of Jason was familiar, was it one of Eddie's friends? What had the first two been saying when she was coming to?
"She was our friend. So was Eddie."
So both were her friends.
"Jason, we still need him even though he brought us the girl. So let's keep him alive," the man who had entered last said, "and preferably in good health. I'll heal some of those wounds for you."
Sophie saw a shadowy figure lean down over the heap of a man on the floor.
She began to concentrate on remembering what had happened. The last thing she remembered was a rainy night in Hogsmeade walking home from Zonko's after her shift was over. Everything since was very foggy.
"Rain," she thought, "Rain... rain... rain......mud.... tears."
Everything started to come back: her two partners, Emily's death, Jason attacking, the very Jason that was probably in this room now, Eddie and his apartment, going to St. Mungo's, seeing David... .
That was David on the floor. He was the one they still needed. He had brought the thing they had wanted, her. At least, she was the first thing they had wanted, they would probably send him to do more important things now knowing he was capable.
The man stood up from David.
"What happened Jason?"
As Jason told him, Sophie blinked furiously, partially trying to return her sight, but mostly trying to stop her silent tears.
