try to wake up

[Gotdamnmiracle]

Edit: Fixed.

[Zako]

Remain calm, check to see if I have any internal injuries. Then make sure not to move my broken rib and try to find my pack. It should have some painkillers in the medical kit for my broken rib, as well as other supplies. Then find a flashlight and have a look around.

Jake takes a calming deep breath. The fact that he can get that much air in his lungs is a good sign. It means no bones have punctured a lung. Jake gives himself a once over finding no further sign of injury beyond what he already knows.

Jake tries to wriggle out of his pack and after about nine minutes manages to succeed without angering his rib situation. Jake opens his pack and digs around for the medical kit he carried with him. He finds it in the top just where he left it. Luckily it is unharmed and the plastic case is not broken. "And they called me crazy for sneaking Vicodin past park rangers" Jake thinks popping two pills and swallowing them hard against a dry throat.

Letting out a sigh Jake begins to dig through his main pack looking for the flashlight he packed. After emptying about a quarter of the pack Jake finds the flashlight and turns it on. To his sick surprise the light doesn't even flicker... For a few cold nervous heartbeats panic takes him over before he remembers with relief that he hadn't put the batteries into the damn thing yet. Jake fumbles with a four pack of AAs trying to get positives and negatives figured out before the light eventually clicks to life.

The image in front of him starts as a bright blur. It seems that his eyes had become adjusted to the dark. The image finally comes to focus and reveals three dust covered bloody people and and one (what once was) person crushed under stones. Two of the people are lying still with minor injury while the third is having a seizure with frothy blood escaping from his lips. Andy, the guy (idiot) who talked you into this trip is nowhere to be found.

The room is a small enclosed space filled with stones of all sizes and dust. There is a small opening just big enough for an adult to crawl through if they did it flat on their belly. The top of the room can't be seen but there is no light at the top of the tunnel.

Okay you're in.

[Drago55577]

use your postively stupid medical knowledge to check for broken bones or deep cuts.

[Zako]

Call out to the others to see if they are hurt anywhere, and not to move at all, just in case. Then treat my broken rib carefully, making sure to bite down on something so I don't bite my tongue. Then use the light to check the rest of me for injuries I might have missed, before checking the area for any dangers.

Viny wakes up coughing and sputtering to the light coming to life, the taste of blood, and an ache that is about par for being run over... And then backed over.. "What the fuck?" He tries to say ending up with a face that hurts like hell and a mess of noises. his jaw hurts like a mother and feels weird and as he tries to speak again two and a half teeth fall out of his mouth. Viny's right hand comes up to try and catch the teeth but to no avail. In the fresh light he can make out that his hand is at a very odd angle at the wrist and looks very bruised. As he sees his hand the pain from it begins to surface and he begins to let out a loud moan peppered with garbled words.

[Gotdamnmiracle]

Jake let's out a yell "Is anyone else hurt? Everyone stay down!" He is answered with a bunch of moans and gobledegook. It is still very hard to hear over the ringing in his ears.

Jake grabs a small bundle of rolled up socks and stuffs it in his mouth. Upon further inspection he finds that his rib is broken in two places but the others are just cracked, like he thought. Jake fumbles through his pack looking for something to help until afet about five minutes he calmly considers what he is doing. Jake knows that there is little you can do to treat a broken rib. They usually heal fine but nothing can be done. No amount of chest wrapping or medication can make it heal any faster.

Jake runs the light over himself and sees nothing aside from a few scrapes that he missed in his examination.

The area doesn't seem very dangerous. Whatever action that happened here has already happened. The room is at a downward slop toward the tiny crevice in the wall, the only exit. Nothing obvious looks dangerous but it is still a cave.

[Zako]

(I'm feeling glad I took a medical character!)

I probably have a concussion. Move slowly towards the others and try not to put too much pressure on my rib. Then start helping the others, checking the worst first. Tell everyone to stay calm, I'll get to them each in time.

Jake gets to his feet in the prone position and moves to the girl having the seizure. Cassidie. A quick shine of the light reveals a massive gash along the back of her head and blood pooling around it as well as her tibia on her left leg is exposed and broken through the skin and leaking blood at an alarming rate. Jake feels, to be honest, this sort of injury is out of his league. The closest thing he's ever seen to this were car crash patients and those rarely lived in hospitals in condition like this let alone this sort of environment. Her heart rate feels both weak and erratic and is fading as her body convulses. In a flurry Jake grabs a wad of gauze and tries to staunch the bleeding on her leg and treat her for shock but it is all to no avail as her body tenses up and the room is filled with the odor of her body releasing itself. Jake had seen that occur but never in a confined space like this.

With an involuntary wretch Jake quickly thinks about Cassidie. Every guy on the trip had pined over her. Even in this rugged environment she still maintained painted nails, highlights, makeup, and a particularly feminine scent, probably some perfume.

Jake shakes his head out of it and whips his flashlight over to Viny. Mumbling something behind a broken jaw and holding up a broken wrist the only other wound apparent is some injury weeping blood through a stylish gray T-shirt.

[Drago55577]

Use other hand to feel around and also open eyes

[Zako]

OK, she's a goner. Accept that there's nothing I can do here, and move on to people I can actually do something about. Let's start with Viny. Move over to him and tell him to stay still and not to panic. I'll fix him up easily enough.

First, make sure his airway is clear. Then check him over for a total number of injuries, Going from head to toe. Be careful with that injury that is leaking blood from his chest, that might be bad. Once I have taken note of all his injuries, if it's safe to do so, feed him some painkillers and help him swallow them. Then get to work on the worst injuries.

[Gotdamnmiracle]

As Jake tries to give Viny a once over, Viny is reaching around feeling himself and the small area around him. Viny notices he is still wearing his large backpack. Viny is lucky, he thinks, that the pistol in his pack didn't go off during the fall. Or maybe it did, Viny wouldn't know even if it did.

Viny blinks a couple of times but the same image of a very bloody Jake remains. Viny had never met Jake before the trip. Both of them were friends with Andy and belonged to the homo sapien sapiens species. That's where the similarity ended. Viny felt like Jake was sort of a hick and a candy ass at that. He said he just wanted to come to see the animals and packed like 20 pounds over what a normal person would carry because he was worried. But at this point Viny is happy to see anyone human.

With a snap it occurs to Viny that he may not be real. He may be a hallucination. Viny, with his left hand reaches up and grabs Jake's shoulder. Jake grabs him by the arm and says "Please remain still. Don't panic. This will only take a moment."

Jake had never met Viny before the trip and didn't like him when he did. Jake felt that Viny was a cocksure ass. Plus he came very under packed and brought along a parka. He asked where all of the snowbunnies were at the lodge. Everyone thought he was joking until he said "And the snow." Right now it doesn't matter what Jake thought of him. All Jake can think is he is a man who needs treatment because his triage training has taken over.

 Since the town he lives in is near the main military base in Colorado in charge of nuclear weapons a devastating attack is possible, so triage is taught to all of the medical students.
 
Jake checks his airway and it seems to be unblocked but Viny is still having minor trouble breathing because his jaw is broken at a strange angle. Jake lifts up the shirt finding a deep cut on his stomach due to his belt buckle but takes care not to mess with it to much. Viny was lucky it missed a kidney. Jake checks Viny's legs and finds no injury to severe. As Jake checks Viny's arms he notices that the left arm is completely fine but the right arm is broken at the wrist and it looks like the hand is not getting very good blood flow through the angle.
