[video | Open to action in the Hospital]

[deadlydoctor]

[Knock Out is in the hospital, in the middle or organizing the mess he found himself in all of sudden.]

In case anybody is having funny ideas: No I did nothing to the other organic medic. If he left, either it was on his own accord or someone forced him to do so. You all should be ashamed for making such assumptions.

[No one’s actually voicing said assumptions to the giant robot that seems to be the only medic available in the medic but Knock Out knows better. He’s also concerned that people might be questioning his abilities and newfound decency.]

Has anybody discovered what caused the explosion? I have a lot of injured patients now and no proper medical staff.

[That might not be completely true. There are other people in the hospital trying to help the injured but Knockout doesn't know them nor he trust theme and it makes him irritable.]

[She felt that explosion and did not like it.]

Mind if a spider lends you a hand or eight, Red?

[deadlydoctor]

[Knock Out hates those! He's just glad he was far away from it.]

If you please...You are a sight for the sore eyes.

[treacherous_widow]

[She smirks a little.]

Then maybe I should come over right away so your eyes are so sore anymore.

[Besides, it will give her an opportunity to look at medical records without interruptions this time.]

[deadlydoctor]

I wouldn't oppose to that.

[He's a bit busy but he will always find time for a lovely lady like her.]

Hey . . . uh, didn't catch your name? You must be one'a the new arrivals. Hi, name's Wheeljack. I'm one of the Guardians of the city. Sorry for not contactin' ya sooner.

Anyway, I'm out at the explosion site. Triage has been done an' there's a lotta work ta do. You know organic medicine or just Cybertronian? [Not a judgment, just asking for information.] Nevermind - there's plenty of nurses an' medi-drones, be sure ta make use of 'em. An' . . . thanks for takin' over in Paian's absence. Doubt anyone's accusin' ya, though - he's not the first of us ta go missin'. There may be at least three of us - Paian's four, now.

Soon as I clear the wounded an' dead, if any, an' get 'em all sent over ta the hospital, I'll be joinin' the investigation into the explosion itself. I'll make a report on the network as soon as I know anythin'.

[deadlydoctor]

It's Knock Out, you weird looking Wheeljack wannabe. [Seriously what's with the mask and blinking fins? Knock Out tilts his head at him, confused.] You don't look like the Wheeljack I used to know.

I'm better at Cybertronian medicine for obvious reasons but I know both, I learned a lot about human biology this last year. Did YOU cause the explosion?

[He wouldn't put it past Wheeljack. But this Wheeljack is more polite too and the doctor seems to relax.] The drones have been really useful, yes. Who are the other four?

That's good to know. You are the Police Chief here or something?

[Video]

[ye_olde_engineer]

[The mech's optics darken with a flat look at the initial insult, but he holds his silence until the other finishes. Because, really, he's too old and has too much to do to bother with petty slag like that.]

That'd be because I'm not the Wheeljack you used ta know. An' no, wasn't anywhere near here. [His optics darken further in a more earnest frown, gaze falling away a bit so it's not /at/ Knock Out.] I can't yet rule out it wasn't somethin' I built at some point or other, though it blowin' now would mean someone wasn't handlin' it like they were slaggin' told.

Nope, not the Police Chief, but I am the Chief Engineer for the city, an' one of the Guardians. Won't be gettin' in the police's way, but whatever's goin' on, especially if it was mechanically caused, is at least partly in my jurisdiction.

[deadlydoctor]

[Sorry pal, Knock Out's unpleasant when he's confused or worried. He's trying to behave now.]

I should be used to weird things like this happening, I saw it before. My bad then, Wheeljack. You can put down the mask, though, I won't bite. [he really believes the mask is removable, like it happens with his Wheeljack and Optimus.]

Who would do something like that? Please tell me there's no start of a revolution going on in here, I had enough the first time.

[the_earth_laughs]

[Hello Mr. Medic Bot. A little, as in about six-inches tall, flower lady flutters up to him.]

Are you the one that's taken charge? [She seems so worried.] I heard about the explosion, and that Paian was gone. I'm here to help.

I'm Irja, Guardian. Just tell me where I can best help out.

[You can think of something for a fairy to do, right?]

[Action]

[deadlydoctor]

[Knock Out double takes because he's never seen organics bugs this size. Or bugs that could talk.]

I seem to be, yes. The name's Knock out.

[I dunno, his brain stopped for a second there. He'll find something eventually.]

You don't look lie Paian. What sort of creature are you? You arne't human.

[Action] /keywords. XD

[the_earth_laughs]

[She gives him an amused smile.]

Paian is human, I'm a fairy.

[Action] Awwwwwwwwww. She's so lovely

[deadlydoctor]

A fairy, like those that show up in little kids's tales and grant wishes?

[Video]

[im_wavin]

[Here's the derpy kitty, and he doesn't seem quite stable on his feet. The explosion knocked something from a shelf and it hit him on the head.]

My head totes hurts...

Maybe someone had an accident and that caused teh explosion???

[Video]

[deadlydoctor]

I Denver expected to be glad to see you...[But he is. It surprises him a lot.] Where you close to the place that went boom, Ravage?

Yeah right. An accident.

[Video]

[im_wavin]

Close enough that teh boom knocked a box of energon goodies off teh shelf and hit my head.

[Video]

[deadlydoctor]

Primus, that's the real tragedy here not all the destruction and injured citizens.

[Video]

[originaldragoon]

Why would anyone accuse you for the doctor's disappearance?

As for what caused that explosion, your guess is as good as mine. And here I thought this place would be peaceful...

[She sighs and shakes her head some.]

Is there anything I can do to help over at the hospital?

[She's not a medic, but she's also not a part of the Police Force here yet. She just can't sit around and do nothing.]

[Video]

[deadlydoctor]

ROSE! You ended in this crazy world too, uh?. [He feels a bit better already. he's happy to see you, lady.]

Don't you know that we can't never have nice things? Perhaps that what causes out last universe to implode, we were happy.

Could you find me the organic old man medic who wet missing? That would be grant.

[Lookie Rose, you can now investigate and see if you can find the missing person!]

[Video]

[originaldragoon]

[It's good to see you too KO. She even gives a slight smile.] Apparently so. I arrived here with Blurr and Gunmax.

As for searching for the medic, I can see what I can do. I am not part of the Police Force here so my resources will be limited.

[neverputincharge]

All I know is at least this one didn't send us anywhere new. [Thank you captain obvious.]

[deadlydoctor]

[A+ Bulkhead.] All things considered, that's a huge relief. Did you see anything?

[neverputincharge]

[Always at your service.]

Agreed, one change of scenery is enough at the moment.

I didn't, can't believe I didn't, because I don't sleep that much. [Then again, thisis a pretty good sized city.]

[Video]

[hotheadwarmheart]

[Hi Knockout. have a dirty, soot-streaked, exhausted, and generally bedraggled-looking Lea on your screen.]

No idea what caused it. Or more likely who. But when I get my hands on them...

[Lea leaves the threat hanging, and after a moment, sighs tiredly.]

Just so you know though, the fire's out. Security's still sorting through the rubble, but well... I wouldn't really expect too many more patients related to this mess.

[Lea's tone is grim. Given the level of destruction and the ferocity of the fires finding anyone else alive in the rubble seemed unlikely to him.]

[Video]

[deadlydoctor]

[Lea did you ever heard of bathing? maintenance Si important!]

Talk about awful timing. Are you still in one piece?

[Scott will help him sank whoever is responsible for giving him so much work.]

Did you join the police again or you were only helping? And that is a good thing. No one's terribly hurt but organics complain a lot.

Re: [Video]

[hotheadwarmheart]

[Where do you think he's headed after this? Shower, then food, then a nap, in that order. He just thought reporting in first was more important.]

Still in one piece, yeah. Just beat after wrestling with that fire for so long.

And I was just helping out. My apartment's just a block or so away from the site and when I saw what was happening, I figured my abilities could be useful in keeping the fires contained.
