Momoyo Kawakami      Carrying in Kazuko's body as quickly as she can, more than likely Momoyo shoved a few people aside when she got impatient. That would explain the glares at her throughout Medical, as she passed by the more heavily secured intensive care units. Throwing Kazuko's Union identification on the front desk, she brought her inside the exam room she was pointed to while waiting for a licensed Medic. Namely, Kyra.

    "Wanko. I wrote down everything the monks told me, here. Can you read?" she asks, not entirely certain her sister was even lucid.
Kazuko Kawakami      Kazuko's looking rather... Awful, for lack of a better term. Although she hasn't vomited once since Momoyo started carrying her, she's still looking a little unfocused and incredibly nauseous. She hasn't even had a chance to tie her hair up or shower yet today!

     "Hnmuh...? Yeah, I can read... Just gotta read what they wrote, right?" She glances around slowly, just conscious enough to know that she's being asked to read something without really being able to string both sentences together properly. "Are we in Medical already...?"
Kyra Hyral     Kyra's totally a legit medic! She's pretty proud of that, though she's not actually a doctor /quite yet/. Her internship has been going well though and she's been picking up all sorts of things from Sakura. It doesn't take her THAT long to arrive, having just left the Heaven or Hell office to come here. The absence was excused, of course, since this does qualify as a medical emergency.

    Kyra's very familiar with food poisoning for....reasons.

    "Hey there." Kyra says as she strolls into the room, setting her moogle-shaped backpack aside on a table near the door. She rolls up the sleeves to her hoodie and gives Kazuko a look. "Hmmm. Yeah, that looks like some poisoning." She hits Kazuko with a Scan spell which...gives her pretty much the same information, "Has she been throwing up a lot? Or going to the bathroom?"
Momoyo Kawakami      "Mostly vomiting." she replies, though the hard-edged smirk she usually had was gone, and so was her glare. Her eyes were wide now, as she strokes through Kazuko's hair slowly. "Here's what the monks wrote about how she's been doing today before I got home from school." she gives a paper to Kyra. Naturally like any other doctor's handwriting it's legibility is in question, but with the scans it should tell what is in her bloodstream along with any over the counter remedies of similar composition in most universes.

    Unfortunately, since Momoyo was always one to wear her emotions on her sleeves... it might actually be necessary to order her OUT of the medbay soon the way she kept caressing her sister. Pretty soon her large frame would get in the way of easily accessing Kazuko's everything.
Kazuko Kawakami      "Lots of puking, mhm. And... Tired. Lots of tired." Who needs logical sentences? Not Kazuko! At least she has the excuse of being sick to use it. She's rather content to just drape over Momoyo in her current state. Beyond the more obvious physical weakness and stated vomiting, however, Kyra might notice with her Scan spell that the younger Kawakami is also burning up quite a bit! Momoyo would have probably noticed it too, and the monk's writing would likely indicate much of the same.

     She's definitely seen better days. Still, she's trying to keep a brave face on, and even smiling a bit. "I'll be fine, really... Nnm. Tomorrow, I'll be back to training like normal and everything..."
Mairead Sandilands     Mairead was the last one to arrive, as Kazuko was her first friend when she arrived in the Multiverse. She is worried about her friend, who she considers more liek a sister than a friend. She just heard that her friend was sick and not feeling well, and so she has no idea what is really wrong with her. So she walks in, her bible in her hand, as she always carries it with her. As she arrives, she looks around and sighs as she was in here once and is still not straight from that.

    Walking into Kazuko's room, after getting the location from the desk attendent, she stops and watches as she walks in, "Hello," she says simply as she looks at Kazuko, "Ye need to relax and let the doctor help ya," she says to Kazuko as she finds a seat out of the way in the room and sits down. She says nothing as she is here and not a medical type person. But being here is more moral support than anything. As she sat down, she opened her book and began to read it as she silently prayed for Kzuko to get better.
Kyra Hyral     "And after all that throwing up, she's still like this?" Kyra looks worried. She knows enough that excessive vomiting and diarrhea usually clears the offending bad food. The victim will be dehydrated afterwards but not...feverish. "Whatever it is, some of it must've been absorbed into the bloodstream. She's got quite a fever going on right now too-" Kyra leans in closer to examine her, working around Momoyo a lot before getting annoyed. "Could you step aside, please? I need to work."

    She slips away to pick up some sterile blood-drawing supplies, "Hold out your arm-" Kyra's quick to command of Kazuko before setting her up to draw blood. She'll have to examine that a little bit more later, of course, so she had a raw version of the toxin or bacteria to work with.

    Following that, once the sample is stowed, Kyra places a hand upon Kazuko's forehead and casts a basic esuna spell. It should, at the very least, stabilize Kazuko until Kyra can devise a more specific treatment. She grabs the notes that Momoyo came in with and quickly reads over what the monks have tried already, nodding. "Hmmm, yeah. This is starting to seem like something a lot more serious than just food poisoning. The symptoms would have started to resolve by now. I was going to go for a stomach pump but at this point it might be too late to do any good."
Momoyo Kawakami      Letting herself be gently shoved aside by Kyra, she sits in the chair helplessly. Her shoulders slump as she looks over Kazuko, but her features harden again once Kyra indicates it's more serious. "I'm going to have Yamato find the list of vendors giving out free samples yesterday." she mutters under her breath, hopping up with her phone. "He's always well-connected, so it should only take him a few phone calls and called in favors... especially since none of the vendors near that one will want to end up on the news." For once, Momoyo actually sounded intelligent. But she was polite enough to give Kyra enough room that she stepped outside of the examination room entirely. It would be unclear if she was returning at any point.
Mairead Sandilands     Looking as she listens, Mairead blinks and places the book in the seat as she watches. "Will she be ok?" she asks Kyra as she thinks. "If there is anything I can do to help, let me know," she adds as she looks at Momoyo. Looking over at Kyra, she thinks and wonders but says nothing else as she puts her hands together and prays for Kazuko to get better.
Kazuko Kawakami      Looking over at hearing Mairead approaching, Kazuko manages a slow wave at the girl before giggling lightly. "Hi, Mairead. Yeah, I'm relaxed. Really relaxed... It's too hard to move around a lot." Even if she's not in any state to run about like she normally does, she can at least try to look like she's doing better than she actually is!

     It's quite easy to do that when she's actually feeling tired, too. It's not that hard for her to cooperate with Kyra's orders in her present state, holding her arm out and wincing briefly when that needle goes in. She even whines a bit when she realizes that a needle had even come near her, but Kazuko's not in any condition to freak out about it.

     "Vendors...? Nmm... Why? Did something... Sis?" Kazuko's looking even more confused as time goes on, although it could also be the fever talking.
Kyra Hyral     "I think she'll be okay." Kyra tells Mairead. "We've got some damn fine medical facilities here and some damn fine doctors. Myself included. Sorta. I'm not officially a doctor yet." She says this absently, clearly far more focused on her work as she studies Kazuko and the notes. "Hard to move around? Hmmm...makes me think some kind of toxin of virus. Sounds like nerve damage maybe? Hmmm. If you have trouble breathing, Kazuko, let me know right away, alright? Both of you."

    Kyra takes the blood sample with her and actually leaves the room briefly, no more than five minutes, as she sends it off to get assayed.
Mairead Sandilands     Nodding, Mairead looks at Momoyo, "If ye want, I can stay with her," she says to her. "She is my friend and it is the least I can do," and she looks at Kazuko and at the various machines. Thinking, she looks over at Momoyo,, "Ye wanna talk?" she asks her as she waits for a response.
Kazuko Kawakami      "Yeah... Not because it hurts or anything, but I just... Don't wanna move." Kazuko waggles her other arm to demonstrate before yawning, the sluggishness in her movements likely evident compared to her usual... Everything. "I will, Kyra... Nn? Who else is having trouble breathing?" She looks around slowly from Mairead to the door where she had last seen Momoyo, a worried frown crossing the sick girl's face. "Neither of you got sick, did you...?"

     That'd just be awful. All the reason to recover faster, then! Looking back to Mairead, Kazuko smiles lightly and rests her head back. "Hey, Mairead.. Mmn. So that party you went to... Was the food good?"

     One track mind, this girl.
Kyra Hyral     Having personally fought Kazuko before...yeah, the difference is pretty notable to Kyra. "No no, if /you/ are having trouble breathing you should let me know. Hmmm, mental disorientation and confusion. Better make a note of that-"

    "Hyral!!" A tech comes screaming into the room, holding an iPad, "You need to look at this!"

    "Please, just call me Kyra." she grumbles, taking the iPad and staring at it. She looks up at Kazuko, then back at the iPad, then back at Kazuko. Without saying anything else besides the standard chant, she cast esuna on her patient again before shoving the iPad back into the tech's hands. "Prepare dialysis. And water. Lots of water."

    The tech nods dumbly and runs off. Kyra turns back, "Your sister is very strong, Momoyo. You should feel proud of her because it seems that she's got a lot of toxin in her bloodstream right now."
Mairead Sandilands     Mairead nods as she rins, "Aye, a lot of food. it all looked good, but I only drank water," she says to her. "I was not sure if I should eat the food, but I did try some Vegetable spring rolls, which are good." she comments. "I have never had em before," she adds as she thinks. "There was also dumplings, fried chicken bits, and cuttlefishballs with curry. But I was not hungry," she comments. "I was nervious, since I was wearing a dress for the first time in seven or eight years," she adds as she blushes slightly.

    "AlsoIgotkissedbyLute," she adds quickly as she covers her face, embarrassed by that. "He surprised me, and I should have knocked him into the wall of his house, but I was a guest, and figured that would not look good," she adds. Thinking she smiles, "Also met that pirate guy, Lima Ultimos I think his name was," she mentions. "He is kind of interesting, but scary as well," as she blinks.

    "I think I was the only one formt he Union there, and they tried to get me to join the Confederation too." and she shrugs at that. "Although I think Lute and another were flirting with me..... I should not have worn the outift that Rarity made for me."
Kazuko Kawakami      "Oh... 'kay. That's good. Was scared about... Yeah." Kazuko relaxes considerably once Kyra confirms that nobody else is sick, closing her eyes and barely even flinching when that tech comes in yelling about something or another. "Just Kyra... Okay. Wait, did I...?"

     It's probably easier not to think too hard about that. Turning to Mairead, the martial artist manages another giggle while letting her eyes flutter shut. "Aw... Bet that was really pretty. Momoyo might wanna see you in that later, too..." The comment about Lute's kiss, for better or for worse, goes completely missed by the girl, possibly because of the speed that Mairead says it. "He was nice after our fight. Woulda gone if I knew... Next time, maybe."

     Kazuko yawns lightly and rubs her chest, furrowing her brow for a moment. "I heard him a couple of times... Sounds weird. He do any... Eh? Why'd they want you to...?" Trailing off, she keeps rubbing her chest while looking over at Kyra again, her jaw tightening uncomfortably. ".. Uhm. Kyra? Can you get me a bucket or something?"

     That's not a good sign for any janitors on duty.
Mairead Sandilands     Looking up, Mairead blinsk and is out of her seat and grabs a trashcana nd brings it over, not realizing it has a red bag that means biohazard. "Here ye go Kazuko," she says to her friend. Blinking at what Kazuko said she looks at her, "Huh?" she asks not catching the joke if there is one aobut Momoyo and seeing her, Mairead, in the dress again. "No, he was a gentleman,. No cursing, although his ship did knock over a car when it landed, before it took off." she comments.
Kyra Hyral     Kyra grits her teeth a little about the Lute's kiss comment. She has...history with the pokemon trainer she feels no need to get into right now. Not when she's hands-deep in a medical emergency. Kyra seems to be busily prepping some sort of IV all the while as Mairead and Kazuko talk with each other. It turns out to be the aforementioned dialysis, a fairly standard medical procedure meant to aid in the filtering of the bloodsteam if the livers and kidneys weren't up to the task. This should gradually clear the toxin from Kazuko's blood.

    Just after she finishes inserting the IV into Kazuko, the girl starts to request a bucket. Frantically, Kyra grabs the kidney-shaped bedpan that all the patient rooms have and passes it to Kazuko.

    Hopefully it's large enough.
Kazuko Kawakami      "A ship on land? Cool..." Priorities.

     A trashcan? A bedpan? Bedpan. Grabbing that from Kyra, Kazuko wastes little time in emptying what little was still inside her stomach into it. Mostly water, thankfully, but still enough to leave an awful aftertaste and leave the girl in a groaning, slumped over state on the bed. "Nguh... Th-thanks. Sorry about all the trouble, everyone." She speaks up while saying that, trying to get that to reach Momoyo if she's even still outside any more. Not that she can tell in her position, of course, but...

     It's the thought that counts, right?
Kyra Hyral     Kyra turns away just a little so she doesn't have to watch Kazuko barf. "So Kazuko. You're going to have to stay in bed for the next few days. You're not fit to be walking around and we need to clear all the toxin out of your blood. Your body will also need some rest after it has since you've been fighting it this whole time. Were you not an Elite, I don't think you would have lasted five hours after intaking whatever it was you did. Your stamina has kept you alive."

    Kyra folds her arms, "As much as I hate to say it, this seems to have been a murder attempt. Tell me, Lu-mey wasn't a sore loser about your fight, was she?"
Kazuko Kawakami      Days? That'd be a lot longer than a regular spell of food poisoning. But if this was an actual attempt on her life, then Kazuko will just have to suck it up. "Nn.. O-okay... Guh. This sucks." She's still got enough energy to complain at least, wiping her mouth off on the end of the bedpan before laying back down on her side. "That's not gonna... Nn. Need more needles, is it? That thing you did before felt better..."

     Letting her eyes flutter shut again, Kazuko shakes her head slowly at the question. "No, she was... Didn't do anything. I think she scared everyone, but.. I don't think she's the type to do that. Would she...?" She /had/ used poison during the fight, after all. It'd certainly be in line with this whole mess. "But she's a strong fighter, so... Nah, couldn't be."

     Kazuko's still got a lot to learn.
Rebecca Chambers     The sound of light humming can be heard along with footsteps in the nearby corridor. Occasionally, the humming stops as the voice calls out, "Hello," Followed by someone's name and asking how they're doing. After checking in, the voice continues and the footsteps get louder and louder until the person behind the voice peers in. It's none other than Rebecca Chambers, apparently doing rounds at the Medical Center (since she's a medic and all, and is studying to improve her medical capabilities!) and is checking in on patients.

    At first, Rebecca starts to ask how things are, but then she stops, apparently seeming a little unfamiliar by the latest patient. "I apologize, I don't think I've beeen briefed on you," She says to Kazuko, before looking at the medical chart. "Kazuko Kawakami, status is poisoned..." She bites her lower lip a little, remembering not only the incident from the mansion, but also a recent rescue operation in Brazil-959, where one of her colleagues became poisoned and she had to work fast to assemble the antidote. She reads more and frowns even more. "Type of poison is unknown." Her eyes narrow a little, then she looks to Kazuko and tries to force a smile. "I'm Rebecca Chambers, a biochemistry researcher for the Union as well as a medic. I was doing some rounds here and I came to check in on you. We're going to try to help you out as best as we can. In fact, I'll see if the bio-research center can help at all."
Kyra Hyral     "I've already put enough needles in you." Kyra says, looking towards the IV that the dialysis was set up to via Kyra. "Don't worry, you won't get any more tonight." She's actually a little grateful that Kazuko is so out of it. If she had to wrestle a needle into this girl when she was well, she'd probably come out of it with two broken arms or a concussion. She is not equipped to deal with a rowdy martial artist's medical care. "I don't know much about Lu-Mey myself other than that she's got some kind of bug thing going on." she admits with a shrug, "You have anyone else gunning for your position? I suspect that might be what it's about. Someone clearly has no confidence in being able to face you one on one so they've resorted to poisoning. Which is why you're going to stay here, rest, and tell anyone who tries to challenge you for your title to fuck off."

    Kyra seems pleased with herself.

    Then Rebecca comes in. "Here, look at this." she passes Rebecca the blood analysis. "Not sure what the origin is, testing's ongoing. In fact, I'm going to go and see what I can figure out from the chemical composition of the poison. If it's biological, I may be able to reverse engineer the proteins into potential DNA sequences...but that will take some time. Days, even, so I better go get to work. Remember, Kazuko, you're on bed rest."
Mairead Sandilands     Mairead looks at Rebecca and nods, "Hello ma'am," she says as she looks at Kyra and blinks, "I know nothing on medical, but would any of me blood work?" she asks as she is worried about her friend. "And who would want to hurt ye," she asks Kazuko. "Ye did nothing to no one, outside of that incident with that Sith we were at," she mentions as she looks at Kyra and Rebecca. "If me blood will help, I'll gladly offer it," she comments to the two medics and loosk to see wher eMomoyo went and blinks, "Where Momoyo?" she asks?
Kazuko Kawakami      A familiar voice! Sort of. Kazuko's still in a bit of a haze as she finally rolls onto her back again, keeping her eyes closed until she hears someone else stepping inside. "Nn..? Oh, you're the..." She gets one eye open, at least! "... Know the voice. You're that college grad, right? Hi, Miss Rebecca." She sounds much more out of it now, the day's fatigue and nigh-constant puking catching up with her.

     Kyra's reassurance about no more needlework is probably helping to ease her mind regarding that, too. "Thanks for coming... Nn. Sorry for all the truble... I-I'll be more careful about free samples next time." She actually sounds a little guilty when she says that. "I'll be good, though... No fighting. Unless they wanna have a puking match."

     Kazuko giggles briefly, then groans again. Her voice is getting hoarse from all the puking! "Mm... Sis went out to... Something. Tell her I'm sorry, too...?" Is it a question or a request? Either way, she's definitely sounding groggier, and it seems as if she's ready to pass out on the spot.
Rebecca Chambers     "Just Rebecca is fine, please," She replies gently to Kazuko. Then she turns to Kyra and nods as she accepts the sample. "I'll try to see what I can do with this. Thank you very much." Turning to look at Mairead, Rebecca smiles a little. "If we need your blood, we'll contact you. A blood transfusion isn't ruled out yet, but we don't know for certain either."
Mairead Sandilands     nods, "Aye ma'am," she says to Rebecca. "I will be happy to help in anyway I can," she adds as she looks at Kazuko. "Close yer eyes. Rest pelase, your gonna need it," she comments as she places a hand on Kazuko's shoulder. "Please, for all of us?" she asks Kazuko. "I'll stay with ya till someone from your family comes if ye want Kazuko."
