In the dimly lit room, Shirou Emiya was hunched over a prone figure on the bed, his hands moving with practiced ease. The air was thick with the scent of scorched flesh and the faint hum of magical energy.
Fujino, standing by the left door, glanced at Shirou, her expression serious. Gray, by the right door, stood as still as a statue, her hood casting shadows over her face. The tension in the room was palpable.
Olga Marie, left alone on the bed, watched with wide eyes as Shirou worked. She sniffled, wiping away tears. "What happened?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.

Webber opened his eyes, looking around the room in confusion. "Shirou... what happened?" he asked, his voice hoarse.
Shirou stood up, stretching his back. "You were struck by lightning," he explained, "A powerful one. If it weren't for the Hogyoku, you'd be dead."
Webber sat up, looking down at his now-healed back. He nodded, a somber expression on his face. "I see... I owe you one, Shirou."

Just then, there was a knock at the door. Fujino and Gray tensed, ready to defend. Shirou held up a hand, signaling them to wait.
"Who is it?" Shirou called out, his voice echoing in the silent room.
"It's me, Caules. I've brought some food and medicine for Webber."
Shirou looked at Webber, who nodded. Shirou then turned to Fujino and Gray, signaling them to stand down. They relaxed, but remained vigilant.
Shirou opened the door, revealing Caules with a tray of food and a small pouch of medicine. "Come in," Shirou said, stepping aside to let him in.
Caule's eyes widened as he saw Webber sitting up, looking perfectly fine. "Webber... you're alright!" he exclaimed, relief evident in his voice.
Webber just smiled, taking the tray of food from Caules. "Thanks, Caules. I owe you one."
Caule's expression turned somber as he looked at Shirou. "Shirou, I must ask... how did this happen? Who did this to Webber?"
Shirou's expression darkened. "It was Hephaestion. She's the one who attacked us on the train."
Caule's eyes widened in shock. "Hephaestion... the conqueror's confidant... she's here?"
Shirou nodded, his expression grave. "Yes, and she's not alone. She has an army with her. We need to be prepared."
Caule's expression turned serious. "I see... I'll inform the others. We need to be ready for whatever comes next."
