Roseanne felt a chill down her spine as the breeze hit her, making her shiver involuntarily. "Achoo!"

Leda could see they were passing the buck around. She had intended to get to the bottom of it, but hearing Roseanne sneeze and cough again, she couldn't be bothered with the details any longer and had no choice but to get her on a medevac helicopter ASAP.

When they arrived at the hospital, seeing her drenched to the bone, a nurse handed her a set of dry clothes to change into.

Leda was concerned about Roseanne's hands and asked the doctor to check them thoroughly. Luckily, the examination revealed no real damage. There was no bone injury, just a slight sprain that would heal in a few days.
