T20: High Law and Low Justice (IC Thread 2)

[Maerdwyn]

Ktarle ignores Quinn and rushes to Zaedhrarrg's side. She attempts to stabilize him with the supplies she has. [+16 T/Medical]

Bleeding's bad. He hasn't had a stroke yet, though. Ktarle drains the left lung of blood, and patches the exposed pulmonary vein with a careful application of NuSkin - He'll need surgery later, but this should get him through for now. Then it's a quick jolt from the stim pads to get the heart pumping again.

The vargr coughs violently, spewing some residual blood from the lung, and his eyes open wide.

OOC: no check necessary - First Aid DC 15. Zaedhrarrg: Lifeblood +9 =1 Stamina = 23

After opening the first boat's hatch and seeing Saanath getting in out of the corner of her eye, Julia Darius hurries for the second boat to use her access code on it to allow ...

Damn, if I heard that growl right, they just got our other Vargr. Hell! Who is going to pilot this now?


Frantically, she grinds her teeth and puts on another burst of speed. Getting it open is the first priority for now because only she can do it; anything else once that is done!

Julia gets the second boat open, and looks around to see where she can best be of use

ooc: She still has a move action remaining. Douane, depending on how active you'd like Zaed to be, you can relinquish Julia back to me or continue running her for the moment.

 

[Maerdwyn]

I'm working on it kid!

As Saanath works on getting the boat prepped, he realizes some good news - this one, at least was prepped about two hours ago. An intercept for the Dvonn is still in the boat's computer, and the diagnostic results are still here. Whether Saanath trusts them, of course, is another matter.

 

[doghead]

Right. Get people on board and get going.

Saanath takes a moment to glance around and take stock of the situation. His first priority is to keep the boat in a state of readyness to leave in a hurry. He'll double check the intercept course later, if need be.

But if the others are bogged down, then no one is going anywhere. Particularly so long as the hanger doors are open. Saanath does a quick inventory of the equipment to hand. Weapons, flares, smoke, engines - whatever might be useful.

At this point he sees two options. Stay and protect the boat. If so, check the course, but not if that would adversely affect their ability to leave in a hurry. Or, get out and help get the hanger sealed and people inside.

ooc: is Klarte and Zead in the boat with me? They were with me at one point earlier. Looks like I lost them.

OOC: My understanding was: Vyrkris is in the boat, carried there by Saanath. Quinn was heading for the boat, carrying Zaed, but put him down outside near the medical supplies, which are between the boats, before he got to the hatch. Thats where Ktarle treated him.

 

[Watus]

Quinn pokes his head around the door and takes a quick shot in Henuri's direction. He is not attempting to hit him, but rather announcing his presence and encouraging Henuri and the others to keep their heads down. He then ducks back behind cover.

He looks down at Ruzz'koff, and not liking what he sees, hollers for a medic.

He turns to Thomas, "Unless you've got a bright idea or half-a-dozen smoke grenades up your sleeve, I think it might be time to seal the door."

He grimaces and looks out at Trelene twitching on the floor in the Cargo Bay. He can't stand the thought of leaving her behind, but can't think of any way to traverse that amount of distance under fire without getting himself dead.

As for the boat's suplies, most have been offloaded, apparently recently, given the checklist thats before Saanath, which suggests that at one point all of that oxygen, and all of those medical supplies now outside the boats, along with several vacc suits, had been on board the two boats. As it stands, there is a mere first aid kit, a standard set of emergency tools an engineer might need in a pinch, and several emergency flares - all standard equipment on a life boat.

The back of this boat, as Saanath knows from the tour he took, is configured with stowable couches, than were usually stowed to make room for more cargo. The couches are still open, and any cargo that had been on the boat before it was outfitted for the rescue has not been replaced.

Quinn watches in satisfaction as the shot burns into the metal crate Henuri is crouching behind, and five heads simultaneously duck down out of sight. There is hushed communication behind the crates but no one in the hangar can make it out.

Ruzz'koff listens to the marine's words, and something,(other than his wound), starts gnawing at the vargr as he crouches down with Quinn, Tomas, Poliarni, Trelene, and a whole bunch of crates in his view. I shot Henuri.... He's having trouble finishing the thought, probably because of the pain he's in. He loses the train of thought again. Then, a half second later, he gets it back. I shot Henuri...I hit him in the chest.... And then it's gone.

 

[Douane]

The vargr coughs violently, spewing some residual blood from the lung, and his eyes open wide.

[Groan] "No, ma, I didn't wreck the glider, I ..."


Zaed blinks several times, then tries to focus on the person in front of him with wide eyes:


"Oh my, you are an ugly one! What happenend to your muzzle? It's so flat! What ...

Er...

Oh, it's you, Ktarle. Sorry about that. Thought I was back home for a moment. But where am I?"


Scratching one his ears, Zaed tries to metally reconstruct what happened to him.


Ah, yes! Went down with the lift. Had Vyrkris. Vyrkris? Vyrkris?


He looks around in panic for the female Vargr till he catches sight of her within the ship's boat.


"Oh, good. She's taking a nap."


So, where was I? Yes, Vyrkris, Agents, Bob. Hmmm, laser, getting shot, falling backwards ... BACKWARDS?!


With a yelp, Zaed begins frantically turning around in circles, trying to catch a good glimpse of his tail and crying in despair

"Is he injured? Is he injured?",

before he finally gets a good grip on it and gives it a thorough visual inspection.


"Phew!"


"So, anyone need a pilot now?"

 

[Seonaid]

Ktarle glares at Zaedhrarrg. "Relax," she commands. "Get to the boat." She points in Sanaath's direction. At Quinn's yell, she mutters a curse and turns toward Ruzz'koff. She gathers her medical supplies and heads in his direction. "Medic coming through!" she yells. "Man down!" Man, in the loosest sense of the word, she thinks wryly.
