Fifteenth PSI

Stop it!  Stop going!  Stop . . . !  

There's   . . . There's so much blood, I -- [Lucas breaks off and seems to gasp for breath for a few moments.  He is, in fact, covered with the stuff despite not having exchanged anything at all, having just finished helping NIc.]  The sidewalk . . . Everything . . . Even on the trees.  It's just like when . . .

[The boy suddenly seems to snap back to reality.]

Who's a doctor?  W
ho's a nurse?  Who's a healer through whatever means?  Please, get uptown and help the people leaving the post office!  Anyone who's already lost something -- Find a medic!  You'll bleed to death if you don't get it treated!  If you see anyone who's lost a leg, get them help first!  Getting the blood vessels in your thigh severed is really dangerous.  No one should try to wait it out!

I . . . I think . . . I-I don't know.  If they're doing this . . . will it come back if we die . . . ?

((OoC: Just for clarification, Lucas is overreacting.  There 's a lot of blood, but probably not as bad as he's making it out to be.  This is the first time he's seen it in such large quantities -- and gushing out from someone while he's trying to heal them.  He's still a kid, after all.))

EDIT:
((For any replies after this edit, Lucas will be over his initial shock and can be found near by the post office if anyone needs healing to prevent from bleeding to death.  You may still reply to the initial contents of this post if you'd like.))

Desperation, it has to be desperation. There has to be- we need to find a way to stop them somehow!

. . .

It's probably too much to stand outside and hit people over the head as they come in. . . . And even if they won't listen, I still have to help them anyway.

Well, uh, knocking them out would work but...

All we can do for now is help those that need it. Maybe even try the phone lines again and warn the others. Hopefully the injuries will go away, like when we came back from that Soviet town...

. . . I hope so, but I have a bad feeling about it. People had to die to recover from their injuries last time . . . I wonder if they'll still let that happen.

It's awful, the way people take death so lightly here. I hope it's not the case this time.

[identity profile] a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com 2010-08-15 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
It is, isn't it? I hadn't even thought much about it . . . Death being so cheap.

. . . Anyway. I should head back soon and try to help anyone who needs it. Do you want to come . . . ? Well. You probably shouldn't. It's . . . not very pretty.

It's not something that others should rely on to fix everything...

No, I'll go with you. I want to help in any way I can.

[Besides, he's kind of used to this kind of thing, living with the Loews and all.]

. . . O-OK, then. Thanks. It'll go faster looking for people if there's more of us.

Right, let's get started right away.
