IC: Ch 7b. A deathly wound (Jordie and Warren)

[BenTheRat]

Location: Boston City Hospital
Date: March 22, 1921, 8:30 PM
.
As you pull up in front of the small hospital it is a brick building with steps leading up to the front door. There is a smaller backdoor, but no other way in or out (except the windows) on the 3 story building that looks more like a house than anything else.
.

.
You pull up to the hospital, you see several lights on inside.

[DetectiveSocks]

Slinging Warren's arm over Jordie's shoulder, she sluggishly struggles to climb the steps. Yelling on the top of her voice, "Help! Somebody!" Jordie wonders to herself who was the chump that designed this joint.

[BenTheRat]

Jordie struggles to get Warren up the steps, his body feeling like dead weight. She can't help but notice the blood all over the seat, his face white as ash.
.
When you are about half way up the stairs, one of the nurses you remember from last night comes out, looks at you, turns back and yells something in the building, and then comes running down. "Oh my god deary, what have you gotten yourself into? Lay him, down, I've got to see about stopping that bleeding." At this point the bleeding is almost stopped anyway. "Oh dear, it maybe too late, but lets see what we can do."
2 men come running out with a stretcher, put Warren on it and run back into the hospital with the nurse right behind.

Warren Kaine

Ben,why do I get a James Cagney sort of feeling? I want to jump to my feet, stagger about a bit and shout "You dirty rat" :lol:

[DetectiveSocks]

Jordie paces alongside the nurse, "Is he going to make it ma'am? How bad is it?" Her voice strained and out of breath.

[BenTheRat]

The nurse doesn't even look at you, "Are you his wife? If not, you might want to call any family he has." As they rush him into one of the back rooms.
.
As they go through a door, an orderly steps in front of you. "You need to wait out here ma'am."

[DetectiveSocks]

Jordie looks around the lobby for the restroom to wash the blood off herself, she approaches the front desk, "S'cuse me where's the restroom?"

[BenTheRat]

There is no one at the front desk, but you were here just last night. You know where the restroom is.

[DetectiveSocks]

Jordie helps herself to the restroom, washing the blood off her hands and wiping the mess off her clothes and face. Returning back to the lobby, Jordie looks around for a telephone.

[BenTheRat]

Jordie notices a telephone on the unoccupied desk where the receptionist would sit.

[DetectiveSocks]

Approaching the front desk, Jordie uses the phone and dials a number to the Museum of Fine Arts, her hands still shaking from the shock.

[BenTheRat]

Ms. Patton answers the phone, "may I help you?"

[DetectiveSocks]

"May I speak with Harrison? It's quite urgent please," as Jordie brushes her hair away from her face.

[BenTheRat]

"He is still studying, he didn't want to be disturbed, is it urgent?" She replies.

[BenTheRat]

"Excuse me Ms. Jordie, but Master Harrison said he would take your call, here he is." You hear Ms. Patton say.
.

OOC:   you will stay here in this thread. But have your conversation with Harrison here.

[BenTheRat]

Warren,they are done with surgery now. They made their medicine rolls so you will live. More importantly will you be able to participate any further or are you holed up for the week. Make a luck roll.

Warren Kaine

Luck Roll,50% 1d100 → [59] = (59) http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4344629/ failed so I guess its stay in bed and rest.

[BenTheRat]

Warren,you get back [dice]0[/dice] hit points. Wow, is that bad. So you are at 2 hit points and still unconscious.

.
The doctor comes out after some time, anyone who was coming from the museum will be there by now.
"Your friend is going to make it. You got him here just in time. He lost a lot of blood and is currently in a coma. He will need a few weeks in the hospital to heal." The doctor takes a deep breath. "You can go into see him."

[DrPeterson]

Harrison arrives with some of the others, his MAPS bag is slung over his shoulder, but seems to be bulging, the flap only half covering a collection of books and papers inside, and greets Jordie with a kind smile.

"How are you doing, Jordie?"


When the doctor comes with the news, he lets Jordie enter first.

[DrVendetta]

"So Harrison what have you figured out from your studing of all the books?" Richard ask
