[Tenjou, Utena]

Utena and Ranma walked through the streets of Hallowton for what felt like an eternity to Utena in the midst of her weakened state. Envying Ranma's ability to endure it all without much show of fatigue on his part, making her wonder just what exactly he was but she was too nice to ask. Still hanging onto him to keep from falling Utena finally saw the hospital up ahead and sighed a sigh of relief.
"Finally! Thank you for escorting me. I don't believe I caught your name."

[Ira]

The healer had been staying near the hospital since it had come under attack by rioters and people of the sort. Wakanda decided since the incident to remain close to be able to potentially provide help if it did indeed come under attack once again by other forces such as crazed civilians. She rotated the lightsaber hilt in her hand, lost in thought for a moment, focusing on herself for the time being. Things were getting worse for her, but with a bit of effort she was able to undo the pains to reset the damage done, to force it to restart anew in her body. Such was the life for her anymore. Once a day she would have to do this. As she did such though, there was a gentle warm breeze which pushed through the air about the togruta and down the walk ways as her aura expanded while she pulled on the Force.

She finally opened her eyes though when finished. Blue eyes danced around as she looked things over. Her gaze finally settled upon a duo, and immediately, Wakanda rose to her feet from where she had been sitting for the past few hours now. Something seemed wrong with the girl with pink hair, the way she had to be helped along and the silent echoes of the anguish which rippled through the Force. Something certainly was wrong. Wakanda stepped forward towards to two, softly offering her help; "Do you need help?" With each step she took towards the duo, golden anklets jingled softly as they rattled against each other.

[Ashley]

"Ranma, Ranma Saotome. Don't mention it."

Ranma introduced himself and then began looking around for somebody to help, fortunately enough for them they wouldn't have to wait very long and his eyes spotted Wakanda. He blinked at her alien appearance and wondered whether or not that was real skin of make-up, but now wasn't the time.

"Yeah, she's sick. I think that disease running around hit her pretty bad. Can you help?"

[Ira]

Wakanda offered a slight nod of sorts.

"I help little. No es the cure for et, no yet. But, stop et for time before begins again. Uh...Re-Re. Se...eet? Reset. The restarting." She shifted over towards Utena where her gaze had been lingering since she had spotted the two. Wakanda moved to put her hands on the girl though stopped short before doing it. Maybe she did not want to be touched? Maybe she did not want her to help?

"I help better with hands on person. Et easier for me. Will no hurt. Feel strange, but no the hurting." With that said, she again moved to place her hands onto the pink-haired girl.

[Tenjou, Utena]

"Utena Tenjou," replied Utena to Ranma.
Utena looked over to Wakanda, doing her best to understand the broken English she was speaking. It was a good thing they taught English and several other different languages in school, because Utena didn't want to know how this woman would handle Japanese. Hearing that she needed to touch her to do her work, Utena stood a couple of inches away from Ranma and gave Wakanda the go ahead.
"Go on."
Trusting that Ranma could handle her if she tried anything.

[Ira]

Wakanda gave a nod of her head when she was given permission by Utena to carry on. She carefully placed her hands onto Utena's arm, a certain soothing warmth coming from just the togruta's touch alone. She closed her eyes and as she did so a slight breeze began to flow down the way, gently tugging on hair and clothing alike in a playful manner.

A tickle could be felt deep within Utena. It was not just a simple physical tickle though as much as it was something so much more profound, eventually spreading into a budding gentle warmth. As that feeling grew, the pains and fatigue which plagued the pink-haired girl began to reverse itself. Wakanda kept her eyes closed as the symptoms of the plague set upon Hallowton within the girl began to essentially rewind. It had not even been a full minute before the plague had been reduced and diminish, returning to what it had only been when it first infected the girl.

Slowly, Wakanda withdrew her hands, letting out a slow breath herself.

"Et give time. But, I no know the disease. No one I know or seen. Force take time to figure et out.

Sorry."

[Tenjou, Utena]

Utena relaxed herself when she felt the breeze and moved a little at the tickle, suddenly the pain she was experiencing was removed and she no longer had to lean on something or someone just to remain standing upright on the ground. She opened her eyes and looked over to Wakanda in amazement.
"H-how did you do that?"

[Ira]

"Es what I do. I am the Wakanda, I do the healing and the cleansing." Wakanda explained with a slight shrug of her shoulders. "Es the Force. - Uh. Es like magic people use. I just use et and help pepole." Good enough explanation as far as she was concerned to be honest.

"Need more time, learn et, then make all better. Take time to learn though. Much time. But, you feel the better, yes?"

[Tenjou, Utena]

"I do. Thank you."
Utena offered Wakanda a kind smile and then looked around to find there wasn't many others present to help her with the work load she had gathered here.
"Are you all by yourself? I would have thought a doctor or a nurse would be shadowing you."

[Ira]

Wakanda returned the smile, glad that least the woman felt better. However, at her question, Wakanda turned to look around, lightly scratching her cheek as she did so. "They busy en hospital. I work en streets alone. No all people can use Force. And few even know how to do this work.

Do what I can to help. No know how to help more though."

[Tenjou, Utena]

"Do you know how all of this began? Something must have happened right?"
Utena looked around the place after asking that question, hearing the sound of coughing in the distance and seeing the sight of people falling over. One would have just assumed this was caused through natural means and extremely bad luck, but Utena had a feeling in her gut that it was so much more than that.

[Ira]

Wakanda shook her head in reply as she watched another fall down. She could do what she could, but that was it. A slight sigh escaped her. "I no know what cause et, but et no feel normal. Es similiar to how some do this with Force at times. Es no by nature. This I know, can feel each time I work to stop et. So close.

Yet so far..." As she spoke, everlasting breeze about the trio shifted and spread out as did her warmth. It slowly settled over one person at a time, doing the same as she had done to Utena though not as quickly, nowhere near as fast as she had. At the end of her words, she still worked, her gaze lingering on those she had reached out to with the Force to cleanse of the the plague destroying them though such a heavy sorrow was held in those blue eyes.

[Tenjou, Utena]

It was as she feared, this was no work of nature. But then what could have done this and what purpose did they hope to obtain from it all? Or was it just another mindless monster taking pleasure at more mindless death and destruction?
"If you were close to the source of all of this would you be able to sense it?"

[Ira]

The wind wrapped Wakanda's robe around her body loosely. Her attention remained fixed on the others for a while longer still, allowing those who fell to rise once again, strength and health renewed within them. At least it would keep them alive and going for now.

"Do you mean find person who do et? - No think so. Once done, et no hold connec-shin to maker. Et spreads fast though. Person to person, animal to things, air to everything. Et stench linger en air, covered little by scent of death. Ef start here, person who make would no want death of self, yes? Find person who no has et. May find person who start et. " It made sense to her at least.

"Ef meaning, ef I can find what I missing. Maybe. Just element I no know how to convince body to fight. Et remain, et begins again. Remove et, done. But body no know what es et. Body no have way of fixing et."

[Tenjou, Utena]

Utena's mind went back to where she first met Ranma and saw the others he were talking to at the time. Out of all of them there was one person who for some reason didn't have the boils on their skin or appeared sick at all. She looked at Ranma, then at Wakanda and back to Ranma again as her mind tried piecing together the puzzle little by little.
"I think I may have a lead. There was a dark headed man who didn't have boils on his skin for some reason. Ranma, what was his name?"
