"Aaahhhh"

Then suddenly I hear another thump. It is the Captain that fell down again unconscious. My hands start to shake and I know that now is not the time for it. I need to move as fast as possible. I take out a syringe and start to draw from the antidote bottle.

"Come on, Amy!!"

Finally, I have drawn enough antidote and I run back to his side. I put my fingers against his throat to feel a pulse and I very faint one. I quickly move his arm in position to inject him and then I make sure that all the antidote goes into his blood.
