(Rainbow had never run so fast before, and back then she had the use of her wings and hooves! Earlier this morning, she woke up to the cries of Fluttershy's Pokemon and was stunned to find her friend collapsed near what looked like a bag of cookies. Had something been done to the cookies? Was that why Fluttershy was like this?
It's been hours since then, and at the moment Dash has done what she can think of to care for Fluttershy -placed a cool towel over her forehead, and wrapped her up in blankets. The PokeGear had been clicked on, but it was audio only so all that was heard was Dash's intense breathing and snoring. She'd fallen asleep, never having to care for a sick friend before now.)
...Does anypony know where I can get some medicine for my friend?!
(She's partly awake at the moment, but still not totally aware and she's not really up for talking much as her hand subconsciously waves over the 'Gear and the audio clicks off.)

What happened to your friend?
[text]
Date: 2013-01-03 05:59 am (UTC)I think there was something wrong with her cookies! It looks like she had one, but didn't totally finish it.
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 05:59 am (UTC)[She's kneeling next to Fluttershy's unconscious body, checking her symptoms, but it's really only a formality. She already knows what's caused this. Twilight's voice is quiet, calm, cold, and collected... but there's a strange quiver in it, almost unnoticeable unless you know her very, very well.
You know, like one of her best friends does.]
I've seen these effects. Some of those poisoned cookies must have gotten to her. There's no medicine for it. This is the use of poison type attacks on a human body.
[She turns her head and looks at Rainbow. Twilight's eyes... they're filled with a cold, merciless rage.]
This is a member of Team Rocket's doing.
[text]
Date: 2013-01-03 06:06 am (UTC)Fuck, those were poisoned
I've heard of someone attempting to use an antidote to cure themselves
but everyone else just waited until the symptoms went away
It depends on the severity of her illness however
If you want to prevent anymore of those misfortunes happening
Toss those cookies out immediately.

Date: 2013-01-03 06:14 am (UTC)I hope your friend gets better.
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 06:17 am (UTC)(She noticed the quiver in Twilight's voice, but cut herself off and remained silent while listening to what she had to say.)
Team Rocket's behind this?
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 06:20 am (UTC)[She's checking Fluttershy's temperature as she talks. Scowling even deeper at what she feels, she raises her eyes back to Rainbow.]
Just because there's no medicine doesn't mean we can't help her. Get me a cold washcloth, first of all.
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 06:36 am (UTC)(Rainbow's hands ball into fists, clenching them as she listens intently.)
Right! (It doesn't take her too long to find a washcloth, get it nice and cold and bringing it back.)
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 06:39 am (UTC)Her pulse is fast, but not dangerously so... she's warm all over, but that's to be expected... I'd imagine she'd be nauseous if she were awake, but fortunately that's not the case. It looks like the poison will have her in a state of shock for a while. Good thing we're staying at the center, we can have a nurse come check on her.
[Sighing, she stands up, looking a bit dejected.]
Though I'm positive they'll say the same thing I'm thinking. That all we can do is try to keep her as comfortable as possible until the poison works its way out of her system.
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 06:44 am (UTC)How long is that gonna take?
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 06:50 am (UTC)[Wait, what is she saying...?]
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 07:00 am (UTC)...You're gonna go and try to find him, aren't you?
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 07:09 am (UTC)[She looks away, out the window, but mostly just avoiding Rainbow's gaze.]
Not... exactly. But there's a chance I'll run into him while it's happening. I wouldn't mind that.
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 07:37 am (UTC)Think you might be called in...?
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 07:49 am (UTC)[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 08:00 am (UTC)Just give 'em one for me and Team Dash while you're out there.
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 08:03 am (UTC)I'll do that. One for you... And one for her.
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 08:09 am (UTC)...It should be out of her system in a week, right?
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 08:27 am (UTC)Or thereabouts. Don't be surprised if it's a bit longer. If it takes more than ten days we'll definitely know there's trouble.
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 08:53 am (UTC)...Why'd it have to happen to Fluttershy?!
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-03 09:42 am (UTC)Ironically enough, it's most likely because of her element. She's just too kind to be suspicious.
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-04 12:43 am (UTC)(Rainbow glared at the fallen cookies, then her gaze softened as she looks at Flutters, never one to turn down a free treat but now...) Guess we'll have to be suspicious for her, huh?
Action
Date: 2013-01-04 01:56 am (UTC)Bowser really sucks... stupid hidden Team Rocket base. It's gotta be somewhere in Johto, it can't be in Kanto. Everyone would know where it was by now...
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-04 07:37 am (UTC)[She tosses out one of her pokeballs, and an enormous (well, only about three feet, but that's huge for what it is) caterpillar pops out.]
Rainbow. Gather up the cookies and toss them into something fireproof. Then have Pyrolepi here and Blaze burn them until there's nothing left but ashes.
[It's too late for Fluttershy, but they can at least save anyone else who might be tempted...]
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-04 07:21 pm (UTC)(It didn't take Rainbow long to toss out one of her Pokeballs, and a moment later Blaze pops out alongside Pyrolepi.)
Come on, Blaze. You too, Pyro...lepi? (She blinks a moment while gathering the cookies into a small, metal trash can before shrugging. She'd ask Twilight about the name later.) We've got some cookies to burn.
(It takes about 5-7 minutes at the most, but Rainbow makes it an even 10 before finishing up.)
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-07 08:06 am (UTC)I've done all I can. The rest will be up to time and the Jennies. Have you burned them all?
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-07 08:28 am (UTC)Yeah. They're ashes.
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-07 08:29 am (UTC)[She pats a chair next to her.] But I can tell you aren't going to go anywhere until she at least shows some sign of getting better, and frankly I feel the same way. So shall we just sit here?
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-07 08:37 am (UTC)[Action]
Date: 2013-01-07 08:54 am (UTC)How are you adapting to being human? Any big problems you're still having? How's your balance?
[Twilight, ask your questions one at a time...]
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-07 09:02 am (UTC)Alright, I guess. Still feels kinda weird not to have hooves anymore, and getting these shoes on wasn't easy. Doing great with balance...
(Ignoring a few times she's possibly crashed into the snow nearly a month ago.)
...And, nothing else! Don't have any serious problems to think about right now.
(There was that whole 'live with it' comment she made back at Hearth's Warming Eve, assuming Twilight remembers hearing it herself.)
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-07 09:24 am (UTC)So you think you've got it down?
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-07 09:32 am (UTC)Yep! The #1 flier from Equestria, now soon to be one of Johto's best trainers has mastered walking!
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-07 09:43 am (UTC)[Honestly, she's more or less just handing that out to give Rainbow something else to do with her time, but she is also a bit interested as to what she'll come up with. Twilight herself isn't really planning to stress out her body all that much, so watching Rainbow is about the only way she'll find out how much a human body can do.]
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-07 09:56 am (UTC)(Rainbow's grin hasn't gone away, though she plans on dividing her time between looking after Fluttershy, testing her human body and training her Pokemon.)
You'll come check me out, right Twilight?
(Deja vu moment?)
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-07 10:12 am (UTC)I wouldn't miss it.
[Action]
Date: 2013-01-07 10:25 am (UTC)(Rainbow immediately holds out her hand for a fistbump, missing the hoofbump already but knowing it wasn't really gone -just seen in a different way.)
