Hunter Association - Medical Wing - 1:34 AM
White ceiling.
That's what Yoo saw when he woke up, clean and sterile, the sharp smell of antiseptic clouded his nose.
His body felt heavy, and really warm after hours of freezing.
He tried to sit up, another hand pushed him back down.
"Stay still." An older female medic, oder, her badge read Gold 41. "You're severely hypothermic, core temperature just stabilized, moving around will shock your system."
Yoo relaxed as his head fell back against the pillow.
His broken fingers were properly set now, proper medical work, not field splints. They'd wrapped his shoulder wound. Bandaged a dozen cuts he hadn't noticed getting.
"Ji-yeon," he said. His throat was raw. "Subject 31. Where—"
"Next room, also hypothermic but stable. She'll recover soon enough" The medic checked monitors. "You both got lucky, another hour in that water and we'd be having a very different conversation."
Lucky?.
