Shelly woke up on a hospital bed. Vee and Sprout weren't here this time. She heard footsteps. Then none. And then some more. And then the door opened. Tisha saw Shelly awake and immediately rushed over. "Thank goodness, you're awake!" Tisha exclaimed, sitting down on the side of Shelly's hospital bed. Shelly had barely started waking up and acknowledging that Tisha was right there. She rubbed her eyes once, then yawned. "Tisha...?" She asked, full of confusion. Shelly looked around the room. "Where... Where am I?" "You're in the infirmary!" Tisha responded, gently holding Shelly's hand. "But... What happened to Vee and Sprout...?" Shelly looked at her own hands, which were soaked in Ichor. Tisha got up, gesturing Shelly to follow. Shelly got up and walked with Tisha. Tisha would occasionally lift up Shelly's goggles if they were blocking her eyes, making sure Shelly could see perfectly. Tisha told Shelly about the things Sprout and Vee were willing to do to her, but Shelly didn't believe it. If they were going to hurt her, why would they help? She thought Tisha was the one willing to hurt her, because why would she deceive her this much? Tisha then stopped talking, and started running, leaving Shelly behind. "I'll be back!" Tisha had shouted from afar. Shelly refused to stay there and started walking in the opposite direction. She heard running. It couldn't have been Tisha. "Shelly!" a distant voice called out. Shelly had started to notice that, inevitably, her stomach had been bleeding. More than it should have been. "I'm over here!" She called out weakly. With every step she took, the pain had only increased. She held her stomach, limping and hoping that whoever it was had been closer to her. Shelly collapsed onto the floor, breathing heavily. "Hello?" She called out between breaths. She waited a second or two. "SHELLY!" Vee came running toward her and picked her up. Shelly had fainted from increased pain. Vee and Sprout were hoping she'd wake up and forget the wound and pain. She didn't. At least for now she didn't.
