Amber's steps were unsteady, and she almost collapsed to the ground, but John caught her just in time.
Stephanie's eyes were wide with shock and horror. She rushed towards Amber and checked her pulse.
"She's still breathing, but we need to take her back to the base quickly," Stephanie said as she pressed her ear to her chest, listening for her heartbeat.
"Let's go grab my bike, we'll use the Vanishing Orb," John said and Stephanie nodded.
John carried Amber in his arms, her body frail and weak, and they teleported back to base with the Vanishing Orb.
Once there, John rushed her to the medical wing and waited in the lounge with Stephanie.
"What do you think happened to her?" Stephanie asked, sipping her steaming cup of coffee.
"I don't know, but nothing good. I thought she'd be with June and Laura. Who knows what she was doing there alone."
John leaned back on the couch and sighed. There was always some complication.
