Farewell Happy Fields!

☯

What: Aftermath of Anoli Attack: Hospital
Where: Leo Ward - Caduceus Hospital Headquarters
Summary: It is the aftermath of the Anoli attack on the Closing Ceremonies. The injured have been taken to Caduceus Hospital Headquarters, and it is time for reflection, visting, or old-fashioned escapes from the hospital rooms.
Warnings: Mild squick if people want to describe their wounds in explicit detail.

Caduceus Hospital Headquarters. It has a distinguished history within Hinoto-Ri, boasting of a staff of well-trained Healers, as well as possessing the most cutting edge medical technology possible. There was no limb they couldn't reattach, no organ they couldn't replace... - they even claimed to be able to bring someone back from the dead (with the small disclaimer that it could only occur under certain conditions and with an obscene amount of luck).

So needless to say, the hospital was more than well-equipped to deal with the aftermath of the Anoli attack on the Closing Ceremonies.

---

Nearly every hospital bed had been filled by an injured patient that night. The A&E room had been in constant chaos, with civilians crying and shouting, searching for loved ones, or demanding to see doctors or healers to help so-and-so...

There had also been plenty of reporters milling about, shouting and crying over the status of the Mayor's Secretary, and whether the Red Lion had really died at the scene, or if he was still alive and well within the safety of the hospital's ICU.

By the time morning broke, there was a false sense of tranquillity within the hospital. The healers had been pushed to their limits with the sheer number of patients being wheeled in and out of surgery, but otherwise, the situation had finally gotten under control. Now, both civilians and visitors were merely waiting for word of the conditions of their injured friends and family...

[Welcome to the winding down of the event! You are now at the hospital, where you may be visiting the injured, or be one of the injured yourself! Those with RED injuries will be in the ICU, and those with YELLOW injures will be in normal wards, for obvious reasons. Those with GREEN injuries wouldn't have had to go to the hospital at all, so they are free to come and go as they wish!

You may all start your threads and mingle!]

Well... Samus had heard that everything went to hell the night of the ceremonies. She honestly had thought that they would have been more well equipped with security against these sorts of attacks, which is why she had decided to stay behind and watch on a public television. That and the fact that she was considered a possible biological threat in the city, added on to the fact that most of her weapons were... not made for areas with high civilian populations.

In retrospect, she wishes she had been there, though she's not sure she would've made a difference. Samus didn't really understand the full gravity of the situation, however, until she had arrived at the hospital for one of her regular checkups and saw just how busy and overflowing with patients the place had become.

Wearing a casual military style outfit, Samus approaches a doctor in the reception area as she pulls her eyes away from yet another gravely injured patient being wheeled down the hallway.

"Excuse me sir, I've come in for one of my regularly scheduled checkups? If this is a bad time, however, I can postpone it until next week." It wasn't as though there was anything out of the ordinary about her condition anyway. Nothing had changed about it in the past two weeks since her last checkup.

"--Huh?"

He looked up from the papers he had been (pretending) to study, to look at her curiously and adjust his glasses. He, didn't seem to know much about that off the top of his head, but he was a surgeon.

"Oh-- no, I'm sure it's fine. Most of the people who are busy are the surgeons and the anesthesiologists," He said, quickly looking through some of the files on the desk.

"You're one of the visitors, right?"

"I imagine the nurses aren't getting a free moment either," she comments as a team of doctors run past with equipment. Samus turns her attention back to the doctor as he rustles through some papers.

"Affirmative. My name is Samus Aran. I'm here about my medical condition regarding the toxins in my system."

You might notice the dark blue veins around her eyes or running down her neck. She also looks like... she might be glowing a little blue?

[hinoto_npcs]

"Eheh-- not really." It was kind of embarrassing to admit, but...yeah.

He finishes going through the papers, trying not to let his focus wander to the...um...glowing veins. Yeah that definitely seemed like something you needed a doctor for.

"Just wait here for a moment, I'll get Dr. Choi; he'll probably be able to help you better than I could."

He gave her a small nod of his head before disappearing momentarily back into the throng of rushing medical professionals.

[screwattack]

"Thank you, doctor."

Samus waits patiently by the front desk, arms folded over her chest as she watches the others go by. It's a shame she didn't have much medical experience herself. If the Chozo were here, she was certain their advancements in medicine would come in handy to this city and the hospital. It was a shame that none of that legacy came with her, only their military technology instead.
