Transitioning (1)

The medics maneuver Sayer into the isolation chamber, and lay him gently on a flat bed. The chamber is shut and the medics step back as the scans activate. Once multiple scans are taken, arms extend to gather samples. Sayer's temperature is high and a rash is slowly spreading over his skin.

Sue 209 goes through the medical files she saved from Tokuma, finding Sayer's "There a handheld or something I can transmit his medical files to for you?"

Looking at the display panel the doctor speaks in a confused tone, "Where the hell was he?! A toxic waste site?!"

Phoenix puts her hands on the isolation barrier and watches, her face torn apart with worry. "I'm not sure exactly where he went. Sayer, do you remember?"

Sayer's stystolic blood pressure is dropping rapidly and his kidneys are starting to fail. He turns his head to Phee and looks at her, shaking his head, confused. Everything is starting to move slower to him.

The doctor makes a snap call. "We can induce a coma and keep him stable for the time being, that's the good news, bad is we have NO IDEA what the hell is attacking him and what frightens me is that in my 30 years of study I've never seen a virus or toxin of this sort. It's either something of the Old World or.. well something new. Like I said, we can either keep him in a coma until we figure out what it is, keep him stable or we pull the plug and let this thing have its way with him."

Phoenix  looks at him desperately. Her shoulders are beginning to shudder as she weeps tearlessly. Her mouth opens but no words come.

Sayer tries to raise a hand to reach out to Phee but he was having trouble making his limbs cooperate. His eyes were getting glassy and unfocused. Phee was a blur now. He wanted to tell her so much, but he couldn't speak. His throat had constricted and his lips were numb.

The doctor glances at Phee then nods to the techs "Do it." The techs begin prepping to induce a coma, getting  life support systems ready.

The medical techs seem to be in a frantic rush. The doctor moves closer to Phoenix, "You want the bad news or good news?" She can tell from the monitors that things are not good. "The bad news."
