"hey, are you in charge here?" Bobby asks the boy in the bowling alley who clearly did not want to be there.
"i guess."
"thank God you're here! she's this way." another boy ran over to the 118 immediately following him, "okay, her name's Arlene Branson. she's the owner. she was working on lane five when the pin setter came down on her. i wasn't sure what to do, so i shut off the power to stop it from cycling again but i didn't think i should move it until you guys got here." the boy explained to Bobby.
"okay."
when reaching the back room the 118 plus the boy rushed inside hearing Arlene yelling. Buck, Eddie and Chimney jumped up onto the setters while Aurelia and Hen went to the woman's side.
"Arlene?" Hen asks.
"Garrett!"
"it's okay, Arlene. i'm here." the boy named Garrett assured the woman, "these people are gonna help you, okay?"
"all right, i got a compound fracture, more outside than in. pulse is very weak." Chimney says.
"she's lost a lot of blood. get fluids going?" Aurelia looked at Hen who nodded.
Aurelia grabbed the saline water from the duffle bag jumping up onto the setters beside Chimney as the two started to get fluids to the woman.
"all right, do you know how to move this thing? how to release it?" Bobby asks Garrett.
"i mean, not really. i've only watched Arlene do it."
"manual." Arlene responded.
"right, manual release. which is here somewhere."
"we could take it apart piece by piece." Buck says looking down at the metal.
"not sure what that's gonna do to for her arm." Eddie says.
Garrett handed Bobby what seemed to be something to turn the equipment as Eddie grabbed it listening to Garrett, "here. put this in the back, then turn it."
"blood pressure's dropping." Hen says.
"pushing fluids through." Aurelia answered lifting the bag more up and squeezed it.
"i'll get a tourniquet, tie the arm, and get her out." Eddie says.
"i don't know if that's gonna work." Hen says, "right now, this cross brace is the only thing that's holding her arm in place. the minute you move it, she's gonna bleed more."
