Sam and Tom caught up with the crowd and everyone was pushing and shoving.
"Please stop pushing!" Sam said to everyone. "Its going to make things worse."
"No one is listening to us!" Tom said, and people began to push inbetween them.
"I said, STOP PUSHING!" Sam screamed, but everyone was shouting anyway so it made no difference what so ever.
"Sam!" Tom said as he got pushed further away.
"Tom!" Sam shouted, trying to scramble through the crowd. "Im not going to get through."
"Me either." Tom said. "You go that way through the gates and I will go that way! Then we meet up outside. Got it?!"
"Yeah got it!" Sam said. She saw that she had to go underneath a tunnel to get to where Tom wanted her to go to. The tunnel was known for not being stable, but now it was worse because of everyone trying to get away. She turned to find Tom in the crowd but she couldn't see him.
She got pushed and shoved by the crowd, so she joined them and pushed her way through. She needed to find Tom, soon. She slowly made her way over and she neared the end of the grounds, where people were still trying to flee, even though they were far from the stage. Sam turned back and looked at the stage, which was now fully in flames. She hoped that everyone backstage got out.
She neared the tunnel and she saw how many people were pushing into it. She knew that this wasn't good. The tunnel wouldn't be able to hold much weight, let alone a few hundred people.
"Would you all just listen to me!" Sam said, walking over the top where people were going underground. She stood above the steps so that everyone could see her. Peoplewere rushing around behind her trying to leave. "The tunnel is not safe!" She turned to all the people rushing behind her. "This tunnel could cave in!"
It was too late. The ground beneath Sam's feet began to loosen up, and the floor caved in on top of the people in the tunnel, and the people on top fell in, including Sam.
"TOM!" She screamed as she fell in. She landed hard on her left side, leaving her shoulder being left in a weird place. Some how, concrete managed to land on her leg. She sat up, however much her shoulder hurt, and tried to lift the concrete off of her leg. "Ah!" She screamed as she leaned on her shoulder, and her ankle really hurt.
Luckily for her, Tom wasn't far away. He heard her scream his name, and came running. When he saw what had happened, he feared the worst.
"Sam!" He called out. "Sam!" Sam flicked her head up at his voice, and screamed back.
"Over here!" Sam shouted, and Tom jumped down next to her. He saw her wince.
"Where does it hurt?" He asked.
"My shoulder. I think its out of place." She said. "Can you get that off my leg?" She pointed to the concrete. He moved it off and looked at her ankle.
"Does your ankle hurt?"
"Nah, it just aches. Its fine." Sam said, standing up.
"I can put it back into place for you..." Tom said. "But It will hurt."
"I don't care." Sam said. "It hurts enough already."
"Okay." Tom said cautiously. He slowly lifted her arm and he watched her grit her teeth. He then pulled her arm hard and she felt her shoulder pop. She screamed out in pain but it was soon filled with relief. "Better?"
"Yeah." She said, wiping her eyes as they had began to water with the pain.
"We should probably check out this tunnel." Tom said, looking into it. The ceiling above them had falling in but only for a few meters down. Quite a few people were injured, but some were lucky enough to walk away. "Oh you have a cut there." He pointed to the left side of her face above her eye.
"I do?" She said, and felt it. Sure enough, there was a cut. It was bleeding too.
"Yeah." Tom said. "Are you okay to carry on?"
"Yeah." Sam said.
"Okay." She said, and walked over to the nearest casualty. "Hello? Im a medic can you hear me?" She got no reply and felt for a pulse. She was horrified when there wasn't one. "Tom!"
"What?"
"This one doesn't have a pulse!" Sam said, checking her breathing. She wasn't breathing either. She began CPR.
After what seemed like forever, Sam checked for a pulse again, and there still wasn't one.
"Sam, we have to move on." Tom said.
"No." She replied.
"We can't save everyone!" Tom said, and Sam listened.
"Fine." She said, standing up and going over to join him. It looked like he had found a man with a broken leg. "Broken leg?"
"Yeah." Tom said, going into his back for a blow up splint. He put it under the leg and pressed a button which would make it inflate. Sam was pulling out her phone. She dialled 999.
"Ambulance please." Sam said, and Tom looked at her. "We are going to need a few ambulances! There are many casualties here. The music festival." she told the operator. "Yes there was a fire here. Please hurry." Sam said, flicking her phone shut.
"Okay, sir, we have to leave you here." Tom said. "Paramedics will get here soon."
"Can't you stay?" He asked.
"No. Sorry." He said. "There are many more people here that need treating!"
They continued to treat more people, and they knew that they had lost two of them. The couldn't resussatate one of them, but another had landed weirdly and their neck had broken.
They heard the sound of sirens, and they sighed in relief. The paramedics found them and began taking casualties to holby. Sam went with Dixie and Jeff, and Tom went with Tamzin and Omar.
"What happened to you?" Dixie asked seeing Sams cut head and she was holding her shoulder.
"The floor gave way under my feet." Sam said. "My shoulder went out of place but Tom put it back in for me."
"Anything else?"
"I landed on my left side and hit my head. Also concrete fell on my ankle. Its not broken and the pain is bareable."
"Let me see." Dixie said, and Sam sighed. She rolled up her trouser leg and took off her shoe and sock, and looked at it. It was obviously bruised.
"There is a lot of bruising there." Dixie said. "But I don't think its broken."
"Good." Sam said, and they chatted away until they reached holby.
There were many casualties waiting to go inside, and they all crammed in.
"Sam!" Zoe said. "We need another doctor!"
"Im here, don't worry." Sam said.
"Its so busy!" Zoe said, having a stressful first day as clinical lead. She wondered how Nick had done it. "Injuries for this one?"
"Hit their head hard, possible neck and or back fracture." Sam said.
"Okay...But there is only one more bed in ITU!"
"One patient needs it!" Sam said, looking around. After a pause, Sam broke the silence. "Zoe, which one gets the bed in ITU? We can't wait much longer."
