In medias res

[Ludo]

The blast from the bomb sent Ludo to the ground. He had heard
the wuuuussh sound and did not hesitate to move towards TonDC
and his mentor Nyko who had sent him out in the forest to seek out
some herbs that were to be picked only in the dark. He was not
sure at all what the sound meant but it still gave him the chills and
then he started running. After he came to himself he was then sure of
what the sound meant. There had been an attack on TonDC and
shortly after his hearing came back to him he heard screams
and roars. Again he started running and he got to the scene
shortly after. It had been a big hit and limbs, blood and bricks
were spread out and from the looks of it there were no survivors.
He did not get to search for any living because of some sniper
shooting at the ground further ahead. Ludo duck and hid behind
some bricks. That must mean that there were survivors in there.

When the shootings stopped Ludo ran into the heart of the blast
and the first person he found was an Arker. He was not someone
Ludo had seen before but then again Arkers were not his preferable
entourage. From a quick scan of the guy Ludo was sure that he had
all his limbs and besides for some smaller scratches he only looked
disorientated. “Hey.. HEY! Can you stand?” he asked because
Ludo would have to collect all the manpower he could to help with
the wounded.

One moment, the Earth was still. The next, Jackson had been knocked off his feet, a deafening explosion surrounding him. he saw more than heard the panic that followed, people ducking for cover. Jackson dragged himself to cover too, momentarily too winded to get up. He couldn't hear almost anything, and he felt like something had kicked him in the chest, and for several long moments he was too disoriented to check himself for injuries.

The ringing in his ears was finally starting to quiet when someone moved in front of him, shouting at him, asking his he could stand. Jackson blinked at him, then looked down at himself, finally assessing that he wasn't badly hurt other than a few scratches. Which was when it hit him that others might not be so lucky, and he had to get up. "Yeah, I think so!" he shouted, unsure if this other man was having trouble hearing as well. "I'm a doctor! Are you hurt?!" he asked automatically and he pushed himself to his feet unsteadily. The other man didn't look injured, but it was a reflex. His entire body hurt, but that didn't matter right now. "What happened?!" he asked, still a little disoriented, trying to piece things together. He was so rarely out of Medical, so rarely out of camp.

From the response from the guy Ludo had found first he nodded as an answer
and to signal that he liked the sound of that but also with the knowledge that he
could not sit by this guy - not after knowing that he was all good. The next the 
guy said made Ludo much more interested. He was a doctor obviously from the
Skaikru but still a doctor in good condition to help finding others and maybe
get their hands a bit dirty from all the wounds that they would find out there. "You
are? Great.. I am fine and we have to move!" he said to the guy while looking 
around to locate other people that might needed their help. "I am a healer in the
making. Let's go look for people!" he said and got on his feet again holding a hand
towards the doctor guy to help him on his feet. There were absolutely no time to
stay and figure out how it happened but he did answer the guy with a shrug when
the doctor asked.
 
From the looks of it they would be in over their heads. A big sigh left his lips
with a little bit of frustration in there. It was harder to find everyone by sight
but you were not in doubt that there were many wounded because a lot of 
voices cried out from everywhere around them. "There...! I see one" Ludo then
said and started making his way to the woman who was under some bricks 
unable to remove them. She was in bad shape and Ludo looked over his shoulder 
after kneeling next to her to see if the doctor was there to help with bricks.

Jackson shook himself as much as he could, the blast having thrown him, but he needed to focus now. And he was relieved to hear that the other man was a healer in the making. Jackson hoped that meant he had some training, and wasn't just vague reference to the fact that he would now have too help the people around him. Jackson's hearing was starting to slowly improve, and he could hear sounds of pain around them. He followed the other man when he made his way over to a woman trapped under rubble, grabbing the medical kit he'd dropped when the blast hit along the way.

He walked up behind the Grounder, and then knelt next to the woman, another Grounder, pressing his fingers to her neck to get an idea of her condition. "Her pulse is thready," he told the other man, then wondered how much Grounders knew about things like pulse and what a thready pulse meant. "She's probably bleeding badly from somewhere. We need to stop it." Wherever she was loosing blood from was probably buried under the rubble. "You're going to be okay," he told the woman, then started helping the other man with the debris, looking for blood. He had no idea if the woman spoke English, but hopefully the other man could translate if needed. "I'm Jackson. What's your name?" he asked as they worked. If they were going to work together, they should know what to call one another.
