Eratz, Kaida, and Catarina carefully led Mercury down the hallway to the infirmary, supporting her weight between them.
When they reached the infirmary, the staff took over, guiding Mercury to a bed. Kaida lingered by her side for a moment, gently running her fingers through Mercury's hair in a quiet gesture of comfort.
Eratz gave Mercury a brief nod, a small smile passing between them before he turned to leave, Kaida and Catarina following close behind.
Back in the locker room, Kaida dropped onto a bench, her foot tapping restlessly, frustration simmering beneath the surface.
Eratz sat nearby, arms crossed, his expression unreadable yet clearly simmering with irritation.
Catarina settled between them, her gaze darting from one to the other, sensing the storm brewing.
The silence between them was thick, both Eratz and Kaida wearing expressions of restrained anger.
