(I listen) Yes, please. Draco is lapsing in and out of hypothermic shock, and we're having problems keeping him stable.

(Adding) So any help would be welcomed.

Guest

Will he be O'k?! I don't know what happened!

=Her eyes fill with tears=
Draco! Please... Don't die on me...

(I look at Ash) As long as he's in this condition, we can't move him much.

(Looks at Zeru)(To Zeru) Thanks, man. This should help stablize Draco long enough to haul him to the medbay.

(Looks at Zeru again) (To Zeru) You don't happen to have a portable stretcher with you, yes?

=Her eyes fill with tears=

(I look at Ash)Don't worry, he'll be fine now. Just relax and let Draco stablize.

(I take Zeru's advice and start to build up the temperature at small incriments)

(To Ash)(I take a look at Draco's temp) Draco is fine at this point. All he is unconscious, and his temperature is climbing back up.

(To both Zeru and Ash) Just get him onto a stretcher and I'll monitor his temp as we go.

=puts draco on the strecher= ash get the back part and we can get him to medbay

Guest

=She calms herself, and looks at Zeru=
On your count.... I'll move him..

Guest

=Ash and Zeru pick up Draco on the stretcher and start to carry him to the medbay=
Your going to be O'k Draco....

The Wizards Posts : 4926 Join date : 2011-05-10 Age : 34

trust me if him and u r as close as u look he will NOT let himself die

=he comms syaa and has her prep the med tank=

when we get there just attach the oxygen mask and lie him down and seal the tank how quick he heals depends on how quick we get there

(I monitor Draco's temp)*Just hang in there, Draco; you're almost through this*

(I check again)

Still isn't considered warm, he's barely gone up 10 degrees...

(I check his temp again)

65 degrees Farenhiet. Close but still considered hypothermic

(I check his pulse)

Still has a pulse. Good sign.

(I look at Draco)*Don't you dare die on me.*

=She looks up at Zeru=
I won't let him die ethier

=The two reach the medbay and drop Draco onto a medical table=
What now? What can we do..?

(To Ash) Best thing we can do is stablize his core temperature.

(Adding) That, and checking his state of conciousness.

(I nod)(To both) Good point, not like we have much to do now.

(Adding) Besides, it beats the hell out just waiting.

Guest

=She sits and watches Draco in silence=

(I look at Ash)

Reminds me of myself, watching in silence over my banged up ODSTs.

(I get the cards)

No point wasted in boredom.

(I look at Draco and Ash)

Damn...without armor, Ash looks like a wife keeping vigil on her husband

(I continue my game with Zeru, looking at the readout from time to time)

(I nod) Good point. If I can't beat you, might as well do something I can.

(I deal the cards) Game on

(To Ash) Numbers can tell the same story as words...

(Adding) As far as technology is concerned.

The Wizards Posts : 4926 Join date : 2011-05-10 Age : 34

ok then it's a countdown it saying how long till he is fully healed so let me see

=checks=

excellent according to this he should be fin in 5 mins

Guest

=She turns around to face Marcus=
What do you mean..?

Subject: Re: Chapter 4: Exodus 12/06/11, 09:57 pm

Quill wrote:: =She turns around to face Marcus=

(I look at Ash) Where an army is concerned; casuaty rates, supplies needed, and enemy force size are what it looks at and reads. Numbers are the military's way of helping tell a story.

(Adding) I meant nothing philisophical by what I said. I'm just an ODST, a simple soldier, I don't do much deep thinking.

Stories...

=She turns back to Draco watching him=
The so called ''stories'' I was in are the ones that never want to be retold...

=She wipes a tear from her eye making sure the others didn't see her=
What ''stories'' have you been though? Are they the ones retold? Or the ones we want to forget..?

(I look at the floor)

(To Ash, sullen) Their the type that you want to forget.

(I add) They're not ones that I want to remember...

Guest

We have to...

=She turns and looks at Marcus=
Remember I mean... Our stories are the ones that won't be retold, but the live on though us...

=She looks away=
Its the least we can do..

(I look at Ash)(To Ash) You have a point. Thats what I've done for years.

(I take off my helmet and look at the back)

(I sigh)(To Ash) The memories are there. The nightmares still linger, but I feel freer than I have been in a long time.

Guest

=I snap awake and stand up from laying on the barracks=

I wonder what is going down in Spartan town.

Guest

Free really?

=She looks down at her prosthetic leg=
I'm not free, I don't know what to do with my life.. I'm on the run from the unsc, all I've wanted to do was escape war

=She looks back at Marcus=
But it always finds me, and grips harder every time I try to brake free...

=She turns back to Draco=
War is what Spartans are born for, what do they do when they don't want to fight..?

(I look) I meant in the sense that I don't feel the old ghosts anymore.

(I think about the question) Now thats one answer I'd like to find out...

Guest

=I walk around to see Ash and Marcus=

Hey, what's going on?

=checks again=

ok he's stable now we have to wait for him to wake up

Guest

The old ghost still follow me... They were my fault, to many times I failed them... If only... If only I could change what happened...

=She brushes her hair behind her ear=
I don't get to forget it... When you get dropped into hell and a group of marines see a Spartan, they think their all saved...

=She turns back to Draco=
When really you have no idea what your going to do, they look up to you... Expect you to be brave... But deep down I'm just a coward... Running was always the best option for me...

=Another tear falls from her eye, she ignores it=
Even if it hurt people, I still ran... I'm still running...

(I look at Ash) Me, brave? I was a basket case after my first engagement. I put on a brave public face for the ordinary jarheads; but in private, away from the Marines and my own men, I was wracked by the guilt and the ghosts. Doctors had shuffled me from unit to unit, making sure I stayed a competent soldier.

(I bend lower in my seat) I was constantly evaluated for psych treatment, and the doctors saw only my 'brave' face. I was the demolitions man, so I had to look competent. I did my job, and I did it well; and the doctors were satisfied with that, nothing more and nothing less.

(I get up in my seat) Look where that pysch crap got me...alone, with the ghosts and the memories.

Guest

Draco!?

=Ash see's Draco's eyes open=
Someone help me open this thing!

=She turns back to Marcus=
Sorry... Maybe we can talk some other time...

=She smiles=
It helped... I think..

Subject: Re: Chapter 4: Exodus 12/06/11, 11:08 pm

(I get out of my seat)

(I raise my hands in mock surrender and back off slightly)

I'm with the good doctor here...

(To Ash) Sounds great.
