Aron looked at Daniel, but was almost too afraid to approach him. "I have heard that too much fever will 'cook' the organs, causing organ failures." He finally dared to approach Daniel. Daniel had never had chicken pox or measles, so it was so strange to see him there on a hospital bed not after an accident, but because of something microscopic.

'Don't try it,' Ebony replied, 'She's one of the survivors. That's Carrie and I believe everything that she has told me that Tony had done to her. The burn marks are evidence of that. He took a blowtorch to her face.'

Phoenix clearly shivered. 'That should be proof enough then' she said as she absently stroked her own scars.

'I hope so,' agreed Ebony, 'and hopefully he doesn't deny it.'

The judge indicated that Ebony could get down.
"The Court calls Carolyn Chenoweth to the stand."
"Is that what they're bringin' the ice for?" Misty asked as she watched Mia applying cold packs to Daniel.

Ebony settled in her usual place and watched as Carrie took the stand. Good luck, she thought.

"If he has a fever, then yes, that's what the ice is for," nodded Delfina.

The prosecutor moved forward, as it was his turn, asking the first question. Kendall moved aside and then gave Ebony a quick, affectionate nudge, essentially saying "I'm proud of you."
"We c'n get fevers n' infections too. I know how that feels." Misty shuddered.
Liska looked up to Aron, worry etched in her face.

Ebony smiled at Kendall, hoping that she had done a good enough job on her part. She looked from the NSX to the Trans Am and the Stealth, the latter nodding in approval in a 'You did just fine' gesture.

"So have I," agreed Delfina, "It feels awful, doesn't it?"

Aron saw Liska's worry. He quickly grabbed a chair and silently moved it over to her and sat down. "He has never been ill before." He said. "He will plow on through this." He smiled to ease Liska's worries as well as his.

'Thanks,' Ebony smiled mentally, 'For a moment there, I was almost afraid that it would turn out good for me.'

'It did though', Phoenix sent. 'You can at least relax for a few moments'.

'Yeah, I know,' Ebony relaxed a bit on her suspension, 'I don't have to worry about the pressure that had been put on my at the stand. I hope Carrie will do alright, though.'

'You talked to her right', Phoenix asked.

'Yeah, I did. It's just that I hope that she can tell what happened to her in front of a whole bunch of people what she had told me,' thought Ebony.
