They start trying to shove me aside, working quickly to secure the spear. Another truck pulled up, a small fire engine, and a guy with a pair of what looked like garden sheers hurried over. Jesus Christ.
I wanted to tell them to back off, to give him room to breathe, to at least give him a second to understand what was going on, but I also knew there wasn't really time for that. They spoke to him clearly, explaining what was happening to him, assuring him they were there to help, but I doubted it would've made a whole lot of sense, even without all the blood loss.
"Fuck off," I hissed, when they told me to step aside, but the firefighter— a huge motherfucker with arms as big around as my head, yanked me up by the elbow. "You need to step aside," he said calmly, pointing me over just a few feet away.
"You're in a place called Darrow," I said, trying to stay where he could see me. It took the two EMTs to hold him still while the firefighter clipped the spear off closer to his body, so it wouldn't get knocked in the ride over. With that over, the two guys rushed to bring over the stretcher, the woman crouching to quickly running an IV line out of the back of Theon's hand and giving him what I fucking hoped was some strong pain killers. "The battle's still going on with out you, man. I'm sorry."
