[Early in the morning a loud rumble shakes the west edge of the central part of the city. The explosion rips through a large section of housing and apartments. Sirens will be heard by those in the vicinity a short time later, as the local law enforcement heads out to play the part of fire department and emergency medical team.]

[An hour later all comm drones will pop open their screens to show a familiar reporter. He looks grim. Behind him, the air is thick with smoke and the ordered chaos of people trying to put out fires.]

Just this morning a terrible tragedy has torn through our peaceful city. An explosion of unknown cause has destroyed several housing units; as of yet the total number of injured is unknown. Our last count was fourteen in critical condition, and another nine with minor injuries.

[Thillens shifts and motions behind him.] Our brave police force has stepped up to the plate to put out the fires and move the injured to the hospital.

But this is where the tragedy gets worse. Our Guardian Medic, Paian, seems to have gone missing!

Please, if anyone can get in contact with Guardian Paian, let him know we need him at the hospital.

This has been Eric Thillens with a special HVNTV Emergency Report.

Thanks!

[Lea does his best to keep the fire back from Bulkhead while he works. Bulk's tough, true, but best not to take chances given the medical situation.]

Nope. Not when things are just getting under control here. There's gonna be enough of a mess to clean up as it is.

[He's grateful for the fire beingheld back. While he's been hit with hotter fire, namely Predacon fire, it doesn't make it anymore of a good prospect to want to work in it. Plus the whole not healing thing.

But he does his best to work quick, so Lea can get to other parts. It's fortunate he's got volunteers who jump in to help with some direction from him, and they quickly make the barrier.]

How's that look, Lea?

[Lea gives the newly constructed barrier as much attention as he can spare. He's no engineer, but it looks pretty solid to him.]

It should hold. Thanks!

[He nods and glances around.]

Anywhere else we oughtta put one?
