STRATERGIZING SALVATION

**Dr. Volkov POV**

As I stood at the edge of the infirmary, my gaze was fixed on Alivia with a sense of awe. I had seen her heal Jess before, but witnessing her now, in full control of her powers, was nothing short of extraordinary. It was a testament to how far she had come since we first met, how she had grown and flourished despite the challenges we faced.

Her movements were deliberate, her hands emitting a soft, green glow as she worked her healing magic on the patient before her. Each touch was filled with a potent energy that seemed to pulse with life, and I couldn't tear my gaze away.

"Amazing," I murmured, "Absolutely amazing."

In that moment, I felt a profound sense of gratitude wash over me – gratitude for the opportunity to witness her remarkable abilities firsthand, gratitude for her unwavering dedication to our cause. And as I stood there, lost in the moment, I knew that we were on the cusp of something truly extraordinary.

As Alivia finished healing the patient, a sense of accomplishment washed over us both. But amidst the relief, I knew that our work had only just begun. With a determined expression, I turned to Alivia, ready to discuss our next steps.

"Alivia," I began, my voice filled with a sense of urgency, "we need to strategize how we're going to approach healing the infected individuals."

Alivia nodded, her eyes shining with determination. "Agreed," she replied. "But where do we start?"

I paused, considering our options carefully. "We'll need to establish criteria for selecting patients," I explained. "We should prioritize those who are in critical condition, those who are at risk of succumbing to the virus if left untreated."

Alivia nodded in agreement. "And then?" she prompted.

"We'll need to determine the order in which to treat them," I continued. "We should focus on containing the spread of the virus by treating those who are most contagious first. That way, we can minimize the risk to others in the community."

Alivia's brow furrowed in thought. "But what about those who aren't showing symptoms yet?" she asked.

I considered her question carefully. "We'll need to develop a plan for identifying and treating asymptomatic carriers as well," I replied. "They may not be showing symptoms, but they still pose a risk to others."

Alivia nodded, her expression thoughtful. "And what about resources?" she asked. "Do we have everything we need to carry out our plan?"

I glanced around the infirmary, taking stock of our supplies. "We'll need to ensure that we have enough medical supplies and personnel to handle the influx of patients," I explained. "We should also consider reaching out to neighbouring communities for support if necessary."

Alivia nodded in agreement; her determination unwavering. "We can do this," she said, her voice filled with conviction.

I smiled, feeling a sense of reassurance wash over me. " Let's get started."

With a shared nod, Alivia and I wasted no time in setting our plan into motion. We began our healing efforts by visiting the most critical cases first, determined to make a difference wherever we could.

As we entered each room, the scenes before us were heart-wrenching. We encountered individuals suffering from severe symptoms, their bodies ravaged by the relentless onslaught of the virus. Some were barely clinging to life, their faces contorted in agony as they struggled to draw each laboured breath.

Our first stop was an elderly couple, both of whom were suffering from severe symptoms of the virus. As we made our way to their beds, the stench of sickness hung heavy in the air, mingling with the palpable fear that permeated the atmosphere. Their frail bodies wracked with coughs and fever, their eyes pleading for relief.

The sight before me weighed heavily on my heart, each laboured breath from the elderly couple was a painful reminder of the gravity of their condition. As I assessed their bodies, Alivia stood beside me, her expression a mirror of my own. In her eyes, I saw the same depth of compassion that stirred within me, a shared understanding of the suffering before us.

"We need to act fast," I said, my voice firm but tinged with urgency " Their symptoms are worsening by the minute."

With a silent nod, Alivia approached the first patient, her hands trembling slightly as she reached out to touch them. As her healing magic surged forth, a wave of warmth enveloped the room, casting a gentle light that banished the darkness of despair.

As we observed the patients, a glimmer of hope flickered within me, despite the severity of their condition. Alivia's healing magic had indeed begun its work, evident in the subtle changes we witnessed.

The elderly couple's coughs seemed to subside, their labored breathing easing into a more steady rhythm. The fever that had once consumed them appeared to diminish, replaced by a newfound sense of calm.

Alivia's touch had worked wonders, her healing magic weaving its way through their bodies, coaxing them back from the brink of despair. It was a testament to her remarkable abilities, a testament to the strength and resilience that resided within her.

As I turned to Alivia, a sense of awe washed over me, my admiration for her growing with each passing moment. "You've done it," I murmured, my voice filled with wonder. "You've saved them."

But even as I spoke, a note of caution lingered in the back of my mind. The battle against the virus was far from over, and there were countless others who still needed our help. We couldn't afford to rest on our laurels, not when so much was at stake.

With a determined nod, I turned to Alivia, my resolve unwavering. "We must continue," I said, my tone resolute. "There are others who need us, others who are counting on our help."

Together, we moved on to the next patient, our spirits buoyed by the knowledge that we had made a difference. And as we faced each new challenge head-on, I knew that with Alivia by my side, there was nothing we couldn't overcome.
