IC-SWORD-Medical Emergency(Sally/Katarina)

The survivors from the T-Bone flee for the safety of Warren Air Force Base, while a lone woman struggles against all odds to stay alive in a very dangerous place. A small group of survivors races across Nebraska in a pickup truck. The helicopter group arrives in Omaha in a last ditch effort to save the world, but time is running out. Z-Day seems to last forever, but it will come to an end. The sun is getting lower, and night is coming...

"Let's just go ahead and get the x-rays done now so we can enjoy dinner" Sally said with a smile. She walked over to the xray table and sit down on it. "Chest x-ray again?" she asked as she pulled off her top with a sly smile.

In the medical lab-
Doc grinned mischievously at Sally, walking behind her. "Sounds great to me, sweetheart," he said, taking hold of her shoulders and massaging them. As awful as Sally felt in this place, she couldn't help but relax a little as the stress drained from her. Doc moved her hair to the side and planted a kiss on the back of her neck. Then he gently lowered her onto her back on the table and positioned the tube over her chest. "The last chest X-Ray came up completely clean, but we can take another exposure to make sure it still is. Hold still." He went behind the screen and took the X-Ray. "Okay, I've got it. It'll take about 20 minutes to develop, but once I get it started we can just leave it while we have dinner."

"Might as well take some more while we are here and develop them all at once." Sally said. "Xray my whole body to make sure it is all gone, okay?"

"Okay," said Doc. "Which part should I try next?"

"Well, you did my leg once, how about my head?" Sally said.

In the medical lab-
"If you want," said Doc. He took the used photographic plate out of the X-Ray machine and loaded in a new one. "Your chest X-Ray earlier was 100 percent healthy, so I don't see how anything could have gotten through there to reach your head so fast. I can also only develop two X-Rays at a time in the darkroom. We only X-Rayed your lower leg before, so I was thinking of doing your thigh next." He ran his hand along it, from just above Sally's cast up to her hip. "Still, I'll X-Ray whatever you want first. Let me just get this one started, and then I'll take the next exposure." He took the plate into the darkroom and closed the curtain.

Sally played along with Doc, "Sure, let's do they thigh next." As she lay there, Sally became curious about the nature of the infection in her and whether it may be in others.
"Doc?" she asked. "Did you xray Hitch's leg? Did he have signs of the infection in it?"

In the medical lab-
"No, I haven't had a chance to X-Ray his leg yet," said Doc. "Yours is more important, so we'll do it first. Hitch didn't have any signs of infection anyway." Doc emerged from the darkroom and returned to the X-Ray machine. "He wasn't attacked by some creature, though. His leg was broken by a good solid kick. It was a clean break at least, like a board broken exactly in half by a karate expert's chop or something. No discoloration around the break or anything like that." He moved the tube to point at Sally's thigh and then went behind the lead screen one more time. "Okay, hold still again." The machine buzzed for a fraction of a second. "All done."

"Yeah. I know that his leg was broken with a kick, but back at the diner there was a doctor who was trying to find a cure for the infection that believed that the infection was already in everyone and something was activating it. We'd see people who died from something other than a bit get back up so it makes sense." Sally said. "I'd like to x-ray him for the sake of experimentation."

OOC: Does Sally know anything about the effects of the nuclear strikes? She doesn't, does she?

OOC,I don't think [b]Sally[/b] knows anything about the nuclear strikes, but I could be wrong. You can look back at Chapter 2 if you want to check (the link is The Story So Far... in the main forum).
In the medical lab-
"All right," said Doc, removing the plate from the machine. "I'd want to X-Ray Hitch's leg anyway. From the sound of it, the creature that broke your leg is very different from the walking dead, but maybe there's some connection." He went back into the darkroom. "Like I said, though, I can only develop two X-Rays at the same time, so it'll have to wait until after dinner." He emerged a moment later and slid a fresh plate into the machine, then offered her his hand. "Shall we, Sally?"

OOC: I am pretty sure all of that happened over the radio at the Motel after Sally and the crew had left.

"We shall" Sally said as she hopped off the xray table and followed Doc.

In the medical lab-
Doc put an arm around Sally's waist and let her lean on him as he led her out to the hall.

In the lower lab hallway-
Doc and Sally stepped out into the hall. Nitro was still standing watch at the far end. "We're going upstairs to get a bite to eat, Nitro," said Doc. "Mind the shop while we're gone. Hitch is sleeping like a baby, and he'll be all right until we get back."

"Okay, enjoy!" Nitro called back.

Doc helped Sally toward the stairs leading up.
OOC,[b]Sally[/b], roll Listen. [b]Sally[/b] didn't hear anything about nukes on the radio directly. [b]Stephanie[/b] and [b]Mr. Foo[/b] did, however, and it's possible that she was around when one of them talked about it. I don't think she was, though.

OOC: Sorry.
As Sally and Doc walked to dinner, she was too lost in thought regarding the use of xray to destroy the virus to hear anything.

In the lower lab hallway-
Doc helped Sally climb the stairs while Nitro remained at his post.

In the upper lab hallway-
Doc led Sally down the hall, past the closed wooden door the led to Mutt's office and toward the living quarters. "Don't be afraid, Sally," he said, hugging her as they walked. "You're going to be all right, I promise you."

In the upper lab hallway-
"Yeah," said Doc, deep in thought. "Let's check on them when we go up there." He led Sally onward.

In the living quarters-
As Doc and Sally passed through the living quarters on their way to the meeting room beyond, there was another, stronger tremor. It was followed by the sound of stone being smashed, and it was coming from behind and below them. It was exactly like what had happened when the worm had burst into the facility earlier!

"Oh Jesus!" Sally said to Doc, grabbing ahold of his arm tightly. "That has to be another one of those worm thing!"

OOC: That noise came from the are of the medical lab?

OOC,Yes, that's where it seems to be coming from, though you can't pinpoint its exact location since you failed the Listen roll.
