"EIRIN-SAMA THIS BUNNY IS SICK AND ALL HIS FRIENDS ARE WORRIED ABOUT HIM. CAN YOU FIX HIM?" EIRIN LOOKED AT THE RABBIT CAREFULLY. IT WAS SHIVERING SLIGHTLY, BUT OTHERWISE NOT MOVING MUCH.
"OKAY, TEWI. I'LL TRY. NOW RUN ALONG AND PLAY." AND WITH THAT, TEWI LEFT AND EIRIN GOT TO WORK.
INITIALLY THE RABBIT'S SYMPTOMS INCLUDED BRADYKINESIA AND TREMORS, AND EVENTUALLY THE RABIT HAD TROUBLE MAINTAINING POSTURE. IN ADDITION, THE RABBIT HAD LOST A LOT OF BODY MASS DUE TO INABILITY TO EAT. THERE WAS NO NEED FOR A DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS - THIS RABBIT HAD PARKINSONISM, LIKELY FROM EATING OUT OF THE MEDICAL WASTE BINS BEHIND EIENTEI. AND FROM THE LOOKS OF THINGS, THERE WAS LITTLE TIME LEFT. EIRIN COULD HAVE USED THE HOURAI ELIXIR IF SHE WERE FEELING PARTICULARLY UNPROFESSIONAL, BUT EVEN IF SHE WERE WILLING TO CREATE AN IMMORTAL RABBIT, THE ALREADY DAMAGED BRAIN TISSUE WOULD NOT REGENERATE BECAUSE IT HAD OCCURRED BEFORE THE ELIXIR WAS CONSUMED.
EIRIN PREPARED A SOLUTION OF SODIUM THIOPENTAL, FOLLOWED BY VECURONIUM BROMIDE AND INJECTED THE RABBIT. IT DIED PEACEFULLY AND WAS BURIED BEHIND THE WASTE BINS IT SO LOVED IN LIFE.
TEWI WAS SAD.
