Marinette didn't understand why her teacher had gotten them a trip for Gotham in Winter! No matter how much she asked, her teacher refused to let her step inside anywhere for a hot drink. She hadn't been feeling well and all she wanted to do was pass out.

Damian Wayne took quick notice that one member of the French class was lagging behind. She also seemed to be shivering, even though she was bundled up.

"Are you okay?" he questioned, falling in step with her.

She nodded and continued to walk along with the class. Obviously, she was not fine.

"Hey." he spoke, grabbing her arm, "Where are you?"

"Gotham?" she responded.

"Where are we going right now?" he pushed.

"Um...tour?" she answered, not really sure.

"What day is it?" Damian asked.

This time he stumped her. She couldn't answer and she wasn't even trying to guess. Something was wrong.



"Dupain-Cheng, hurry up!" shouted a blonde girl, "Stop flirting with the tour guide!"

Damian ignored her and waved off the tour guide his father had sent. Marinette began to cough. She was doubled-over, covering her mouth.

"You're ill." Damian stated.

She pulled her jacket tighter around herself.

"You should be somewhere warm; not out in the cold." he continued.

"I'm the class president. I have to be responsible and be an example to the class." she said, rubbing her head.

"Did your teacher inform you of these expectations?" he questioned.

The girl nodded.

"Does she know you are ill?" Damian pushed.

The girl blinked confused for awhile, but nodded. He growled and pulled out his phone, quick.

"Alfred, I need you to pick up myself and a student in the French class." Damian demanded, "She is ill and I'm not sure for how long. We need her to be checked out."

He heard a noise behind him and turned around quickly.

"Hurry! She just collapsed in the snow!" he cried before hanging up.

He pulled Marinette into his arms, and brushed the snow off of her. He took off his gloves and pressed his hand to her forehead.

'She's as cold as ice!'

Alfred appeared suddenly with the car.

"Take us to the cave; immediately!" he shouted, yanking off his jacket, put it around her and brought her into his arms.



The Wayne family was shocked to see Alfred pulling in a town car into the cave. They were even more surprised to see Damian carrying an unconscious girl.

Damian immediately hit the console for medical use and brought her to the table.

"Her temperature is low." he said, turning to Alfred, "She's as cold as Freeze. I think she has hypothermia."

Alfred quickly rushed over.

"She was falling behind the class and shivering. Her teacher knew she was ill and still made her go out. She told her that since she was class president, she had to be responsible and set an example to the other students. " Damian announced, "She was slurring her speech, couldn't answer my questions. She didn't know where we were going or even the day. She seems exhausted."
