How can I stay calm at a time like this? Scar argued mentally, his breathing ragged.
[You have to try. Because if you don't stay calm, your heart rate will continue to increase, and the venom will reach your heart faster. And when it does… you will die] Miley explained. [Take a deep breath. Slow your pulse. I know a way to defeat the venom, but you must manually decelerate its spread first]
After considering her words, Scar immediately forced his eyes shut. He blocked out the agonizing pain and focused entirely on his chest, using his sheer force of will to manually slow his breathing.
In. Out.
His heart rate began to drop. The terrifying spread of the black veins slowed to a crawl, though they didn't stop entirely.
[Good] Miley said. [Now, compress the brachial artery to further stop the flow of the venom]
