Rapiers and Rocketships

"Ouch!"
For the moment statsified with that witty statement, Sinead just lies a moment longer while she tries to convince herself she is still alive. Deciding that something that hurts so much must live she groans and tries to stand up.
"Me head hurts."
Realizing that the chair she is holding onto is actually LeeAnn she quikly manages something resembling a smile and whispers to her.
"Please no more screaming lady, that would be so kind now."
Dazed she stumbles towards the next door but it will probalbly be pure luck if she hits the exit, the cockpit or simply the restroom. Then she passes Roland she just mumbles a:
"Ain't that an uncomfortable way to hang out?" before going on, trying to understand what the hell is happening around her.

Roland takes a careful grip on his seatbelt, braces for the drop, and unbuckles. Landing safely, if a trifle less gracefully than he had intended, he quickly surveys the wreckage. "These people need medical attention. Is there a doctor on board?"

Freeing himself from his seatbelt, Ben moves over to Willy, checking the navigator for signs of life.

"Come on Willy, you've been through worse than this before." He mutters under his breath, trying to revive his friend. He hears Roland's request for a doctor and breathes a sigh of relief.

Thank God for small mercies. At least we've got one man capable of clear thought on board.


(OoC: I'm really sorry about not posting sooner. A combination of EN World going down at awkward moments and me having been rather busy over the last few days has conspired to keep me away from this thread.)

Seconds, minutes, or hours past. You don't know for sure. Dust fills the cabin of the plane. Bright sunlight streams into the cabin from the left sides windows. The plane is on its side. People hang from straps of the left side of the plane. A few moans can be heard.
Tom feels like he just went 5 rounds with a gorilla. He sees a tree branch sticking through the plane and into the body of the young businessman who was sitting next to him.

"Uh...Perfesser?" Tom calls to Roland.
"I t'ink dis poor guy's gonna need a priest."
He tries to slip under the tree branch and out of the seat, but is too big to do so without disturbing the body.
Tom jiggles the branch gingerly, considering how to extricate himself without disturbing the body unduly. If he can crawl up towards the erstwhile ceiling of the cabin, he can probably stand up without hurting his seatmate any more.

LeeAnn quickly snaps into a more rational trauma mode.

"I, um, I'm not a doctor but I am a nurse."

She rushes over to feel for a pulse on the man with the branch through him while calling out to Sinead "Wait, don't you run off, someone needs to look at your head."

"I, um, I'm not a doctor but I am a nurse."

She rushes over to feel for a pulse on the man with the branch through him while calling out to Sinead "Wait, don't you run off, someone needs to look at your head."

Seeing the medical situation in hand, Roland moves to take care of other emergency measures. He sweeps the plane, looking for any signs of fire or fuel leakage.

LeeAnn quickly snaps into a more rational trauma mode.

"I, um, I'm not a doctor but I am a nurse."

She rushes over to feel for a pulse on the man with the branch through him while calling out to Sinead "Wait, don't you run off, someone needs to look at your head."

At first glance, LeeAnn instantly knows that the man is dead. A three inch tree branch sticks into his side and out the other.

No sign of fire or the smell of fuel. It is difficult to move about because the plane is on it's side.

 

[Tars Tarkus]

Tom jiggles the branch gingerly, considering how to extricate himself without disturbing the body unduly. If he can crawl up towards the erstwhile ceiling of the cabin, he can probably stand up without hurting his seatmate any more.

The branch is broken off a few inches from where it sticks out of the man's side. Because of the position of the plane, he lies on the "floor" of the plane. Tom can easily stand away from the body as LeeAnn examines him.

Ben pulls Willy up and he almost gags at the sight of the bloody mess which was Willy's face.
