"Artis-san, I can see you're a little occupied, but since you aren't using it at the moment, where did you tuck that assault rifle of yours?"

Carla smashes out what's left of the back window and aims for the chopper's cockpit, the bullets raking across the windscreen. A splotch of blood spatters across part of the glass as the helicopter slips into a steep descent...heading right for the police cruiser.

Artis flicks on the sirens switch as he steers for a grassy knoll. The police cruiser rocks up and down as the car careens towards said knoll.

The cruiser vaults over the grassy outcropping with the rockets exploding just short of their mark. Smoke and fire trail out the back of the cruiser as the it lands in spectalular display of sight and sound. Artis and Co. continue to bounce about the Scottish countryside as the medic copter crashes about 50 meters away from their current position. The main rotor digs into the soft earth as the tail section lands on a rocky crag, breaking off and shredding everything within it wake.

Remarkably, the chopper does not explode. The crew inside (whoever is alive, that is) appear to be safe for the time being. The fuselage slides another 15 meters or so closer to the police cruiser, settling into a bit of marshy terrain.

From the Team's vantage point, it seems that at least one of the pilots is still alive and there are signs of movement in the rear cargo area. With fuel leaking and bare electric wires everywhere, it's not a question of if the helicopter will burn...it's when.

"Fuck 'em." Artis spits. "We've got wounded to get outta here."

And with that, he spins the wheels on the Vectra and continues for the RAF chopper at full speed.

The Vauxhall leaves the crash scene, peeling out in a wicked spray of mud and burnt rubber

As the terrorist chopper gets smaller and smaller on the horizon, a thick cloud of black smoke pours out of the helicopter. Seconds later, the entire area around the impact erupts in a ball of flaming jet fuel.

Artis pulls the cruiser back up on to the highway where a few kms down the road they are met by the RAF helicopter.

It lands, deploying a small unit of heavily armed soldiers bearing the SAS insignia. They rush for the police car, with commando-like speed and deliberance.

Upon seeing Brian, one of the soldiers stops as the prop wash blows about everything that isn't bolted down.

He give Brian a quick salute then removes his earpiece.

(shouting over the prop noise)

"SIR! WE HEARD YOU NEEDED BACK-UP, BUT IT APPEARS YOU AND YOUR MEN HAVE THINGS UNDER CONTROL. CARE FOR A RIDE?"

Brian returns the salute, shouting so his voice carries over the prop wash.

"Love one, we're having a little bit of car trouble. And radio in to have a medical team ready on the field, we've got wounded."

Brian turns to the team. "Let's get out of here."

"A fine idea, Brian-san."

Ayumi turns to Jess.

"Is safe to move him?" she asks, gesturing towards Kyun. Her voice carries a note of concern.
Gatac 2003-09-06 09:05:11
"Ayumi, in this business, it's better to ask whether it's safe not to move him."

(OOC: First Aid check - is Kyun stable enough for transport ?)

The officer calls over a medical corpsman.

"We need to triage before evac-ing the area."

After a brief examination, the corpsman gives a "thumbs-up" then makes his way over to the helicopter, bringing back a stretcher and field kit. The officer gives some hand signals indicating the call for a dust-off.

Upon getting Kyun stabilized and secured, everyone heads for the chopper. It takes off, giving the Team a bird's-eye view of the scene.

Inside the helicopter, one of the crewman hands out headsets to the Team.

The officer on duty introduces himself.

"I'm Lieutenant Oakwood with the 21st SAS Regiment. We were on field exercises outside of Falkirk when we got your call."
Gatac 2003-09-06 19:35:58
"Thank you for the kind assistance, Lieutenant. Now, if we could get our team member to a hospital in time, I'd almost call this a good day."
Dieter 2003-09-07 00:14:10
"We'll radio ahead for an ambulance and surgical team. They'll be waiting for us when we land..."

Lieutenant Oakwood glances down at his watch.

"...We should landing in about 10 minutes. Doc says your friends injuries are bad, but not life-threatening. Whoever patched him up should be thanked."
