It was Katherine's turn to smile, she rarely laughed when things were grim but she had made him laugh as well which cheered her. "This body is hardly a gift." She could say she was far from normal just another mistake. Katherine went back to there work. The truth be told there were still some sick but not that many most were killed and perhaps the water would be back in a few days. "I wish we had a number count on our dead."

Paradox was smiling, even though Katherine couldn't see it behind his shaded hood. "That may be, but your body is also hardly a curse." His body was, or at least that was how he saw it. He heard her next words, and was surprised she hadn't asked. "80% of the poisoned are dead. There are at least a thousand spirits lost." paradox said in his way of counting kills. It was an important habit of any man who threw people's lives away strategically.

After last night, Black had a renewed resolve. He went back down the medical wing and slammed open a few books, checking the preserved blood samples from last night. He looked at them carefully and checked through the books. "Thanks for helping me last night, Katerine." He said to himself as he thought. "Now to find a cure for this damn thing before it wipes out Llyr."

Katherine had came back home giveing herself time to eat. She held in her hand a apple she was watching Matachi standing in the door way she spoke to Black, "I brought you a gift." She removes off of her sholder a water cannter. "Its clean, untainted. Its starting to wash away but it is still there. Everyone is getting water else where so all that are sick now are all the ones that will get sick."

((Sorry about the delay.))
Black looked back to Katherine and smiled. "To think, I could use a pure water sample for comparison with a tainted sample. Thanks Katherine. I'll drink some as well, don't worry. Also, last night I gave Matachi a shot that should at least delay the flow of the poison until I find a cure." He told her as he stood up and walked over. Also knowing it, Mel must have also been torn up upon hearing Matachi got poisoned. "If I can just find out... what it is. I'm checking through my books and so far nothing. I think I'm close though."

((Mel is sick to she was eating the soup))
Katherine noded some she set the water down near him and walked over towards Matachi she watched him it was hard not to, fear running for the moment his chest didn't rise again. "Paradox can judge the water well. He has been very useful as well. There is no panic in the streets." She was a Matachi's side now and her hand reached out brushing his cheek. "I am doing well in this, you would be proud of that."

"Well, I'm glad it hasn't taken Paradox down." Black said as he took the canister with him. He took a clean eyedropper, took a sample of the water and placed it on a slide before placing a tainted sample in the other one. He looked at them both closely. "Huh..." He said, switching the views to closer on them. "I think I have it."
He looked over to Katherine. "I may have an idea of what it is. Though the compound to fix it... is another poison all together." He told her as he looked at the samples. Suddenly he came to the conclusion. "Goddamnit... it's mercury!" He shouted down the hall.

((actually i think thats Matachi's decsion on what it actually is.)) Katherine was silent she didn't jump at anyt discovery it wasn't in her nature anyway. She went over to Black and embraced him. "Keep working, whatever you do don't let him die. I have to go back to my own work." She gave him a lovely sweet smile that was only Katherine's. She turned then heading from the door she hated this mess and couldn't wait till it was over.

((He told me that it was. We do discuss these things in Google Talk. I'd have told you, but you're hardly on there anymore. razz ))
"I'll keep working on it Katherine, don't worry." He told her as he went back to work. Now, it was time to synthesize a cure. He had to look up a few compounds though that would make it. It wouldn't be easy. He plowed through his books and began to lock down all other thought processes but on this.

((KK back btw))
Katherine had gotten back from everything that was going on in town again everything was okay for now and she could worry about her own staff. She walked into the main hall and poured herself a glass of wine and went back to Black. "Found anything yet?"

"I need the ingredients to synthesize a counter poison. While it works like mercury, it will purge the mercury from their system. Though it will still have effects of temporary blindness and muscle ache. It's our only solution Katherine. Cause I'd hate to tell you where I'd have to stick the next syringe to keep Matachi alive." Black told her as he was still looking through the books.

"Could I help in any way?" She asked quite serious walking to his side. Her purple eyes flew over everything he was doing.

Black opened the white desk and handed her a syringe full of red liquid. "I need you to inject this into his bloodstream. Through his arm if you can. Avoid the heart unless his symptoms look severe. It might take a day or so to synthesize the poison. Even then it's pretty risky, but if I can get it to him before his symptoms get too bad, then he'll live. Then I can work with my team to get everyone in the castle and then I can teach those around the city so we can get as much of the population as possible."

Katherine took it with a nod and went over to Matachi. This wasn't that hard she understod enough about these things. She checked it for bubbles then injected him with it. She then went back to Black. "I have something to show you. I haven't ever shown this to anyone." She took his arm in her hands and a small knife. "Do you trust me?"
