Guppy emerges from the office, rubbing his eyes and checks on Amanda. He holds her hand.

"Come on Amanda. Come back to us."

He sighs and notes down her obs, before heading towards the door. He needs to find Hank.

Hank comes in then stares at Amanda.

"What the--? OH blood."

He turns to Guppy.

"What happenned?"

He is already moving to put on gloves and a gown.

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy sits beside Amanda, holding her hand again. Her skin is papery, almost transparent, her eyes glazed.

"I don't really understand it. The first I knew of it some guy was carrying her down the stairs. He said he was a vampire that was feeding off her life force, because she was immortal and could let him have it safely. But she gave up her immortality for a test, on some sort of quest. Sir Alanna gave her some life force last night, which brought her back from the brink."

He rubs his forehead. "Since then she's been in a deep coma, slightly bradicardic, otherwise no physical signs. Sir Alanna told me to keep her resting, and that there was nothing else to do except find more healers that can donate life force."

He takes a deep breath and tries to calm himself down. "I've been doing half hourly obs all night. GCS has been three throughout. No change otherwise."

[inquisitivehero]

Hank groans and eyes the woman.

"Oh, amanda. Her weird sense of ethics will get her someday. But it wont be today if I can help it."

He thinks for a long moment.

"Not much we can do physically, except to keep her steady adn stable as the machines will let her be. And it's time for me to hit the books and see if I cant find anything that can help her."

He nonetheless exmines her thoroughly, from head to toe, hoping there is something he can find that will help. When he is done he shakes his head, and sighs.

"Nothing I can see. All we can do now is wait, unless we can turn up a healer who know how to fix this or tech that will do the same."

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy rubs his forehead and groans inwardly with frustration. He'd hoped Hank would be able to come up with something.

"I've been on to Barry. He said we should try Tim, Svava, Nita Callahan and Raven. May also be worth asking Eska if she's in, but I haven't seen her in months. I'll hit the books myself, but I don't think life force is even covered."

He gently takes her limp hand again. "I'm not losing two good friends in one week."

[inquisitivehero]

Hank nods.

"We wont lose her. If all elzse fails, if her pulse and rhythm strt failing, we can always put her into a stasis field. That will preserve her... until we can find a way to heal her."

His voice isnt that hopeful, but it also is firm.

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy nods, not taking his eyes off her fragile body. He coughs.

"I can stay, for a while. I won't be missed back home for a few hours, which gives me a few days here. If..."

He takes another deep breath.
Get a grip on yourself. Be strong for Amanda.

"... how would I activate the stasis field if you aren't here?"

Astral Prue appears next to the body. Looking around the infirmary.

[inquisitivehero]

hank blinks and hen smiles.

"Hello?"

[oldestcharmed1.livejournal.com]

"Hi." looking down at Amanda with a concerned look.

[inquisitivehero]

"Can I help you?"

He watches her carefully.

[oldestcharmed1.livejournal.com]

"I'm not sure. I guess I'm alittle lost." she smiles. Her hands are together in front of her.

Briefly pointing to Amanda, "What's the matter with her?"

[inquisitivehero]

"She has a rather severe condition."

He eyes her.

"This is the Infirmary. I am going to have to ask you to leave unless you have business here."

[oldestcharmed1.livejournal.com]

Prue and Paige walk in the infirmary through the front door this time. Prue points out the woman that she had been talking about.

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

Paige looks down at the back, "Amanda!" she says softly biting her lip, "Oh god Amanda what did you do to you?"

[inquisitivehero]

Hank looks on.

"Can I help you?"

He looks a little annoyed.

[oldestcharmed1.livejournal.com]

Prue looks at Paige, "You know her?" looking very concerned about her little sister.

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

Paige nods and looks at Hank, "I'm Paige, one of Amanda's friends, we haven't met."

She kneels by Amanda with a tear in her eye before looking at Hank again, "what happened to her? Was it another immortal?"

[inquisitivehero]

"Hello, Paige."

He shakes his head.

"No, it wasnt. But, ah, no offense, I generally dont talk about a patient's condition without their permission."

He eyes them both, his stance slightly shifted.

[scapepig]

Snowball hurries into the infirmary, runs straight over to Amanda and puts his front hooves on the bed beside her, nudging her gently with his snout.

"Comrade Amanda?"

He whimpers and nudges her again.

[ms-myers.livejournal.com]

And Nina's there, looking absolutely terrified.

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy looks up.

"Nina? Are you okay?"

[ms-myers.livejournal.com]

"What happened to her?" Nina stares back at him, wild-eyed.

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy debates whether he is allowed to tell her or not. But since Amanda has been so upset about Nina going, he's pretty certain they're close friends.

"I'm not entirely sure. She gave life force to a vampire, but she'd lost her immortality. We're trying to find a way to get it back."

[ms-myers.livejournal.com]

"And if she doesn't get it back?" Her eyes don't leave his face.

[guppy_sandhu]

"Then... then she would remain as she is. In a coma. But we will get it back." he says firmly, reaching down and squeezing Amanda's hand for a moment.

"Would you like a few moments alone with her? She may still be able to hear you."
