It was happening all over again.
Lydia tried to breathe, tried to fight the commands her body was giving her: just give up.
But Lydia wouldn't give up that easily.
She fought the urge to shut down, to stop breathing. Her breathing began coming back to normal.
"Take this." a voice said, shoving a pill down her throat. Lydia swallowed, choking after.
The stranger grabbed Lydia by the shoulders and sat her up, gently wrapping a piece of fabric over her chests.
Lydia didn't know what medicine she had just taken, but she was feeling better. Her eyesight grew clearer, the stranger coming into view.
The stranger was dressed all in white. Lydia couldn't see their face, the pristine white suit was covering their whole body.
Lydia screamed. It was a Capter.
"Lydia!" Stefan yelled, his voice growing louder. Stefan ran towards her, pushing the Capter to the side.
"Stop!" the Capter yelled. "I want to help!"
Stefan only began to beat the Capter harder, punching and kicking them.
"Quit!" the Capter gasped between breaths. "I know how to get out."
Stefan stopped abruptly, and bent down to stare at the Capter. "Are you serious about this?" he murmured, running his fingers through his hair.
The Capter took off her head guard, and a long mane of red hair fell out of it.
"I'm serious." she smiled. "I'm Jenna."
"Why are you helping us?" Stefan asked, tense.
"Doesn't matter." Jenna said quickly, "We need o get this girl to a hospital. Quickly, too. Or else she'll die."
