Scarlett's fingers twitched as she opened her tired eyes and saw Nina's face. She grabbed Nina's hand tightly.

Nina noticed and looked at her again. "Scarlett!"

Scarlett's weak voice whispered, "So cold..."

Nina held her close. "I'll hold you. You won't be cold. You won't be cold."

"Am I dying?" Scarlett asked weakly. "I'm sorry. I couldn't find the antidote for you... I... cough, cough..."

"It's okay, it's okay!" Nina said. "Don't talk. The ambulance is here. I'll get you on it, and you'll be fine."
