Pyrexia

[Zephel]

The double doors of the clinic slowly is being pushed open as the nurse on the counter looked up in surprise. It's 4 in the evening, and so far no one has been sick or injured thankfully, though it's a bit tedious for the nurse to be alone in the clinic, waiting for anyone who needed her. Of course, some moderators of the school has been visiting her at times to chat about health problems or just general things about wellbeings. So, having her clinic visited for the first time excites her.

The sound of continuous coughing filled the room as a pale dark-haired girl entered the clinic. The girl then dragged herself towards the counter, leaning to it and breathing slowly through her mouth, almost wheezing. "I got sent....from class....to here..." The pale girl said before coughing some more.

"That's okay, I'll help you. What's your name?" The nurse asked as she moved around the counter, hold the girl to assist her to a bed at the corner of the clinic, but then was pushed away. "No touchy, it's mushy! .....And I'm Syani..." The sick girl tried to smile, but ended up imbalancing herself and almost fell off. The nurse caught hold of her, then escorted her to the clinic bed, wanting her to lay down for a while.

A few minutes later, Syani found herself lying on the bed with a pack of ice on her forehead, and a thermometer hanging outside her mouth. A fever, the nurse said... Syani haven't caught a fever in centuries! But then again...last night, she was playing tag with the mob again...and its raining heavily. She's half a human after all, so it's possible she's going to have this sort of sickness once in a while.

A while ago, the nurse wants her to remove the choker around her neck, but Syani dissaprove of that strongly. The choker had been charmed, for as whenever she wears them, her telekinesis won't go ballistic. Plus, she's afraid if every time she sneezed or coughed, something exploded. "Gehh...." Turning her head to the side, she stared at her red cloak hanging by the window. Any passer-by is able to see that, since the color is so obvious when compared to the white and gray walls of the clinic.

'Fever..... I'm going to hound this type of virus soon and wipe it out of existence.....'

Mitsuko had worked at the clinic now and again since she was a healer, and occasionally she would be the one to give a helping hand. Ever since the school reopened there hadn't been any cases as far as Mitsuko was aware of in terms of sickness.

The angel stepped into the clinic to check on the nurse that worked there, and to also to see if she needed help. ! She couldn't believe her eyes there right in front of her pale, and almost colorless there she was Syani. And she wasn't doing so well from what Mitsuko could see from afar.

Another nurse that was typing up the records at the reception desk stood up and greeted Mitsuko while the one nurse who was trying helping Syani was failing miserably in doing so.

"Mitsuko San...I am so glad your here..."

Mitsuko then rushed over to her friend. "Syani.... a-are you?" the angel then felt her forehead and gasped.

Upon seeing a familliar face, Syani drops her 'I'm-sick-leave-me-alone' vibe considerably. "Mitsukooo~" She moaned, morphing into her chibi-mode with her eyes wide and watery...or in short, she's acting pretty much like a child whining to her mother. "They said I have a fever and now I can't even think how to have fun anymore..." Still with that same nagging tone, Syani sniffed, pulling up her comforter to her chin's height.

Mitsuko's palm that touched her forehead felt so cold...which means Syani must be burning. Which is strange, because she feels so cold. Oh, centuries of not having a fever is taking its toll as the girl isn't so used to it anymore. "Is my white blood cells loosing to the fever...?" She asked timidly.

Mitsuko closed her eyes to see what was really going on in Syani's body and then she saw her white blood cells losing especially when Syani asked.

"... Its not looking so well but..."

She took Syani into her arms (nothing mushy about it I assure you) and closed her eyes once more. A white golden light shown from Mitsuko's chest, and just bathed Syani's whole body in it.

"This will buy you time until we can find an antidote.... which leads me to the question is there one?"

The nurses looked at each other confused. "Well maybe its a virus... perhaps someone has to go and do some virus busting!"

"This isn't a game..." Mitsuko responded in a straight forward tone but not in a harsh manner.

"Geh!" Syani outburst in shock at Mitsuko's sudden embrace, but since she's too weak to do anything drastic, she just stayed numb there, coughing a bit. Staying seems to prove for the better as a warm light is emitted from Mitsuko, and it suffused with Syani, surprising her.

That tight knotted feeling on her chest lessened as she could feel her throat cleared now. The mucus that blocked her nose and her temperature diminished also. "Whoa...now THAT is cool." She uttered in surprise, blinking as she stared at her non-pale hands now.

The word 'game' perks her up from her tranced state, ultimately attracting her attention. "Game...?" She repeated, interested in the idea as she sat up on her bed, then turned to Mitsuko. "I'll do it! Virus busting~! I can totally kick some ultramicroscopic butt! Come on, it's an infectious THING that replicates itself within cells! MY cells! It's like there's a multiplying ninja inside me and I can't do anything to stop it...and it's pathogenic!"

Maybe Syani falling ill is a good idea to keep her loud mouth shut for once. "Only that...how can I fight something inside me..."
