Once we reached the shore, I helped Koyuki get her father down from the ship.
"Thank the gods!" Milo said as he and a group of medics ran up to us. I had him get some medics, anticipating this scenario. What I failed to predict was that the badly hurt one would been Griff. I'd expected Gael if anyone.
"Gael, did you freeze him?" a medic asked as they lifted Griff onto a stretcher.
My teammate nodded his head, his expression unusually serious. "Yeah, his body was starting to go cold, so I froze him to preserve him."
The medic nodded and put a hand on his back. "We'll get him to the hospital immediately."
"Right," another medic said, helping him carry the stretcher.
Koyuki took a deep breath, holding her hands close to her bossom. Steeling herself, she followed them.
"Koyu," Milo said, furrowing his brow.
I glanced at Gael. "Go with them and get yourself treated too. We'll meet you later."
My cousin-in-law nodded and hurried after the medics.
