Town Hall - Friday November 16th Evening

Nov 16, 2007 17:50

Katara was almost completely unconscious in a cot but the Town Hall's makeshift hospital was ticking over like a well-oiled machine.  Even as volunteers and doctors grew more and more tired, their dedication still won out as each patient was tended to carefully.

[OOC:  And this is the last hospilinic post!  The researchers are very close to a cure ( Read more... )

"Katara?" Luke called, levitating an unconscious Chris in front of him. "Is there room for one more?"

Molly happened to be near by and turned to Luke. "Katara is a patient now, but there are still cots left. Follow me and we'll get him set up."

Karal wasn't sick but he was carrying a mug, and close behind him were Rikku, Rodney, Ed, Peter, Willow and Sam.

He was looking for Constable Fraser. The Constable was the only one he thought might listen, and listen quickly.

After speaking with Mr. Elric earlier, Fraser was looking for anyone else from the research team to enter the Town Hall.

As soon as he caught sight of Karal, he left what he was attending to and hurried over.

"Mr. Austreben," he said quickly. "Tell me."

"This should work. They," he nodded over his shoulder, "they went and found the plants that should cure it. Chris sickened himself bringing them back. We don't know exactly how they were intended to work, so we we've tried a tea. They found a lot of plants. If it works, it should," must, must, Sunlord, let it, "work, more can be made."

"It's a cure," he said quickly. "We need to find someone, not a student, to test this on at once."

Karal sagged gratefully. He was listening. "Anyone, It doesn't matter who."

Grace was asleep again, fitfully so, but it meant Zoe could take a moment to go over to Fraser and Karal to see what they were talking about so intently. "Is everything all right?" she asked.

Fraser moved so his back was still to Town Hall at large just in case this didn't work.

"They've found a possible cure," Fraser told her quietly, nodding at the mug of tea. "It needs to be tested before we start administrating it to the population at large."

"A cure? Honestly?" She was well past the point of being embarrassed at how hopeful she might have sounded, especially when she started coughing.

"Honestly," he said, frowning when she started coughing. "Are you ill?"

"Yes," Zoe admitted reluctantly. "But if you tell a doctor who tries to get me away from Grace, I will somehow find the strength to kill you."

"I wouldn't," Fraser said, silently asking for the mug from Karal and taking it carefully. "Ordinarily I wouldn't suggest, wouldn't ask this of anyone, but the circumstances are dire. We need someone to try this. I would if I was sick. I'm not. I don't want a huge scene if this doesn't work. Principal Washburn, Zoe, do you want to try?"

Zoe glanced into the mug, thinking about it. The tea didn't smell particularly good, but she'd definitely smelled worse before. And it was just tea - if it made her sick, well, she wasn't too far from throwing up on her own anyway.

"Hand it over," she said, taking the mug. After a deep breath, she took a sip, and immediately made a face. "Oh, that's vile. Would it have killed you to put a little sugar in?" Nevertheless, she took another small sip, and waited.

It took a few minutes, but she started to feel better, and she didn't feel like she had to cough at all. Handing the mug back to Fraser, she pulled up her sleeve, and saw that her rash was starting to fade away. "Well, I'll be damned."

It was all Karal needed to see. With a tiny smile, he turned to go, heading back to the kitchen to brew more tea, as much as he could - he'd seen huge pots in there - and not think.
