1326/Not as Planned

Cast of Characters: | Blurr, First Aid, Healthpoint, Starlock, 130

**Healthpoint has posed:**
      The battle in Ibex apparently took a quick turn for the worse, and Healthpoint ended up doing what she was actually designed for. Namely being a sky ambulance for injured troops. She carries the other medics in the holding area of her quad-rotor airship form, and the trip back to Decagon is fairly long as aerial trips go. She isn't the fastest, built to be a workhorse rather than a performance aircraft.

      As soon as they make it back, the medical staff unload the three unconscious medics and get them to repair berths. Healthpoint has to wait until they are unloaded and everyone is clear before she can transform, but once she does she will get immediately to work.

**Hoist (130) has posed:**
Hoist is technically just a technician and not an actual medic but that's not a detail to be nitpicked over. Mostly because he's unconcious and can't do so. Thankfully they have people like Healthpoint to haul them out when he's beat to scrap and can't do so.

**First Aid has posed:**
First Aid is still in his ambulance mode, smoking from many wounds. If he were awake he would be greatful to see Healthpoint approach. Once he is transformed, his unconscious form could be easily loaded with the others. All three of them look like they took a pretty brutal beating. The cons were taking no prisoners and giving no mercy today.

**Starlock has posed:**
     Starlock is in rough shape, her neck lines are leaking energon profusely, cracked armor, cracked and broken frame supports, She's definitely in no good shape ether, she still had that distress beacon clutched in her hand, nothings said as she's silent as theo ther two.

**Blurr has posed:**
    Medical is definitely busy at the moment, with all of those who suffered serious injuries that could be taken care of at field hospitals flooding in from south Ibex--a battle that did -not- go well for the Autobots at all.

    Blurr is still here, although he has been getting more and more difficult to keep track of as his recovery from the Undergrid incident has progressed. It shouldn't come as a surprise that once again, he isn't in his room. Of course, the staff are too busy with critical patients to be bothered by this fact.

    No, instead, he's hovering behind Healthpoint, watching her work with mild interest.

**Healthpoint has posed:**
      It is all hands on deck as the injured medics and technician are brought in, along with all the other injured that start flowing in from other recovery efforts. A set of faceplates that look somewhere between a combat mask and a surgical mask slides into place over Healthpoint's mouth before she and the other medics get to work, cleansing the wounds and beginning more serious repairs than those that could be handled in the field.

      Blurr being here is a bit of a surprise to her, and even moreso that he is watching her work. She never really took him for the type who was interested in medicine, but she certainly isn't going to discourage him. Despite what was said a few megacycles ago regarding his need for speed if it were mixed with medicine.

**Starlock has posed:**
     Starlock is still out and silent but at least she's gotten stable thanks to Healthpoint, the nurses, and other medical staffs work, still though she lays there silently... Fairly it's not the /worst/ condition she's come in as, after all there was still armor and frame over her spark casing!

**Hoist (130) has posed:**
Hoist is busted up, but he's not as bad as it could of been just out of how durable he is being a labor mech by design. He took the sort of abuse that would of left lesser in very severe condition. But ow. Boy does it look painful. No wonder he dislikes being on the frontlines very often.

**First Aid has posed:**
First Aid is pushing his systems as hard as he can to try to come back online. His body is tense, his life signs erratic as he still thinks he's on the field. He's pretty severely beaten, not being one to make it to the frontlines very often himself. He's still deeply unconscious, his body spasming and twitching a bit as it is still in combat protocols. He was ready to defend his downed friends to the death if need be.

**Blurr has posed:**
    Some of the other medics watch Blurr somewhat suspiciously, probably because they're worried he might interfere with something important. But thus far, he doesn't cause any trouble, instead hanging around behind them. He does sort of flit from patient to patient, peering between the medical staff to get a look at what's going on.

**Healthpoint has posed:**
      As has unfortunately become standard practice on her watch, Healthpoint has all the injured maglocked down. This is thanks in large part to Blurr, so it is a bit ironic that he is now here watching and making the medical staff nervous. As she notices Blurr flitting about, Healthpoint looks over. "Blurr, I can understand you being curious, but these are our comrades. Not a collection of curios. Please pick a spot to stand or be seated." she says.

      It isn't too long before everyone is patched up and online again. Healthpoint just happens to be working on First Aid, since he was twitching about.

**Starlock has posed:**
     Starlock's fans, self-repair, and other internal systems are heard kicking back on as she's gotten back up in working order, her optics come on dimly, she lets out a grunt, bringing her hand up to to rub at her helm. "Ow..." She'd say a loud.

**First Aid has posed:**
First Aid 's optics snap online, glowing way too brightly and panicky for his own good. "Hoist! Starlock! No!" he flails forward, the maglock catching him and making sure he can't lunge off the table. His voice is full of panic and terror. He flails for a moment, before he goes completely limp again, his systems starting to clam down.

**Hoist (130) has posed:**
Hoist ughs. Coughs a few times to clear smoke out of his ventilators. "Well, that didn't go entirely as planned. But better than it could of, I suppose."

**Blurr has posed:**
    Perhaps a bit surprisingly, Blurr does comply with Healthpoint's request, giving her a sheepish look before coming to a halt behind her. It would appear he has settled on that spot to stand.

**Healthpoint has posed:**
      Healthpoint flinches lightly as First Aid wakes up panicking like that. "Easy, easy...it's alright. You are in the repair bay in Decagon. Starlock and Hoist are here, too." she says gently. She looks over as Starlock and Hoist wake up as well, then nods. "You returned alive. Unfortunately not all can say that after a battle like this." she says, then does a few last checks on First Aid before stepping back. "What happened? And...why didn't you pull back before you were offlined?" she asks the group.

      Blurr actually does as asked, and Healthpoint blinks a bit before smiling slightly. Of course...she still has her mask on so that might not be seen, although it would be reflected in her eyes as well.

**Starlock has posed:**
     That shout makes Starlocks finials go straight upward as she looks over to where the FirsT aid's voice came from, probably a bit too fast as she does get a headache from it, flinching even, struggling out despite the damaged neck, nodding to Healthpoint as she helps sooth aid. "I'm over here Aid." She'd confirm with some struggle.

      "Can say /that/ again Hoist..off.. I'm sorry about that..." She looked around the room and knitted her ridges. "How's.. everyone?" She'd ask, and then huff. "...Couldn't we were in a pretty rough spot with how they kept using the drones to paralyze and cripple everyone, not to mention Shadowstar showing up." She'd murmur, bringing an arm up to drape over her optics.

**First Aid has posed:**
First Aid is very still after the panic subsides, murmuring "Was going to but another joined in the fight." he blinks, staring at the ceiling. "It was my fault. They got knocked out and I couldnt move. I tried to but.. I couldnt get to them before..." he coughs roughly, turning away for a moment, looking ashamed.

**Hoist (130) has posed:**
"That said," Hoist chimes in, "what we did succeed in doing to their defense structure was pretty impressive, if I say so myself. If only we'd had one of the bigger mechs to chuck some heavier ordinance into the fray."

**First Aid has posed:**
First Aid says softly to the wall. "If you'll let me up, I'll get out of your way. I'm sorry." he says with a tired voice.

**Blurr has posed:**
    Blurr watches First Aid panicking with concern, and even when that subsides, he still seems to be down on himself for what happened out there. Well, at least they're all still alive, right?

**Healthpoint has posed:**
      As repairs are finished all around and patients start waking up, maglocks are released and those that wish to are allowed to leave. Healthpoint nods as she hears what happened. "I see. Well, I am glad you all made it back." she says, then blinks at First Aid. "...what? First Aid, you are currently a patient. That means you -are- the way." she says, then vents softly. "But, I do understand the frustration of failing in an objective...and in saving a comrade." she adds, placing a hand on his shoulder. She looks over at Hoist as he speaks up. "Oh? So it was almost down?"

      She looks to Blurr, then tilts her head slightly. "Are you able to speak out loud again, yet?"

**Starlock has posed:**
     Starlock frowns hearing First Aid, and knits her ridges, when the maglocks were up, she'd roll herself to her pedes, and use her stave as a walking crutch and move her way over to Aid, and heft herself to sit on the edge of his berth. "Heey..hey.. You did great Aid.. Everyone did considering our circumstances, like Hoist said... You're also not in anyone's way..." She'd smile at him, despite the knitted ridges.

**Hoist (130) has posed:**
Hoist can understand how First Aid feels. But letting everyone get down over the matter isn't going to do any good. He nods a bit to Healthpoint as he sits up on his berth. "Aye. So while we didn't succeed in taking the position, we did try some alternate means of doing so with good results. If we don't use the same strategies repeatedly, it'll eventually lessen the chances the Decepticons can be so well prepared ahead of time."

**First Aid has posed:**
First Aid tries to sit up but stops moving when Starlock comes over. He knows she wont sit back down until hes safe. "Allright." his optic band softens in what might be a return smile. "I know you wont rest until I do, so I will. We all made it right? And Hoist is right." he says. "We lived so we can plan for..the next time."

**Blurr has posed:**
    Well, everyone seems to have been stablized by now. Recovery might be a while, they'll be all right. Blurr steps back, since it seems most of the 'action' is over.

    Healthpoint's question doesn't get a clear answer. The speedster just gives her an unreadable expression, and then...bolts for the door!

**Hoist (130) has posed:**
Hoist watchs Blurr... well, live up to his name. "I see he's still having... issues. It's weird not hearing him blather almost too fast to follow..."

**Healthpoint has posed:**
      ...and Healthpoint is left staring at the door as Blurr suddenly bolts. "...I...did not think it was that serious of a question..." she says softly, then shakes her head a bit before looking at First Aid again. "Good." she says, giving him a pat on the shoulder again before laughing a bit at what Hoist says. "Yes...it has been a bit strange." she says.

      She looks around the repair bay for a moment, then vents softly. "Well, if everything is under control here I think I will return to my quarters." She salutes the group of higher ranked officers before heading for the door herself.

**Starlock has posed:**
     Starlock smiles softly back at him, and pats his helm with a huff, and crosses her arms and pouts playfully. "Want me to write the report..? I know you here the last standing, but... Well, I know it really messed with you, and I was the highest rank out there, so responsibility does fall on me." She'd nod, only to see Blurr and.. Ahhhh scrap.

      "<<Blurr get back here! You know Jazz said you were not allowed to leave yet!>>" She'd text and vent, she didn't have the energy to chase him at the moment. "...I hope he can get his voice back soon, It is a bit odd not hearing his constant ego-bolstering insults... Though I do admit I've been getting along better with him without 'em..." She'd smile weakly.

      She'd give a weak two finger salute to Healthpoint. "Rest well Hp." She'd call.

**Hoist (130) has posed:**
Hoist shakes his head a little as he lays back down in the berth to rest. "It may be temporarily peaceful... but it's not him. That's what feels weird about it. And whatever the problem is it's something beyond resyncing his vocalizer because he could of easily asked me or any other tech to do so."

**Starlock has posed:**
     "Agreed there Hoist, and it's because he's got some minor paralyzation going on with the gunk still stuck in his internals, we're mostly trying to wait for the last it to filter out on his own." She'd explain before leaning back to rest with Aid. "..e.Everyone do get some rest, yeah?" She'd nod.

**First Aid has posed:**
First Aid nods "I'll be glad to help when Im able to." he says, moving over to let Starlock rest with him if she chooses "Yeah. Im pretty exhausted, as Im sure both of you are. Take it easy. No one die on me tonight okay?" he murmurs, half awake.
