The doctor moves forward one pace and stops, as if hesitating, or awaiting confirmation that it is indeed he who is called over. But he quickly enough crosses the street towards Silver
"Let me see" He starts to crouch down towards the downed home guard pony

As he does so, Silver takes guard and looks around, keeping his rifle at the ready in case there are other Changeling Infiltrators around.

On the southside, two earth ponies look on at the scene while a bat pony crosses the street. Spec moves in towards the eastside along the street to what seems to be another downed officer. Two ponies approach the vehicle that was hit and then shot at, where blood and shattered glass is all that can be made out from Silver's position with the police car between them. Silver can see that the shotgun wielding police officer from the first vehicle has scurried past the downed the home guard, turned the corner, and is rapidly converging on the location of the machine carbine-wielding officer, who stands in the entry threshold of the grocery store. His carbine, though not raised, is held at the ready, and he looks directly at Silver's position. Silver likely locks his blue eyes to the officer's green as he looks around.
On the northside, cars have moved or even crashed into each other after the shooting started. But only one off-white colored mare is interested in assessing the damage of a fender bender. Everypony else has backed up, gotten back along the road, and started northward. More or less the same story is true of the road east, which has started to clear. A pair of ponies on the sidewalk north by the diner walk slowly, looking on at the scene, while another two lope northward.

In a firm voice, Silver tells the two approaching ponies, "Move along, civilians, this is issue for Police and Homeguard. Unless you are here to help wounded ponies, continue to make your way along designated evacuation route."
To the officer looking out at the scene, Silver locks eyes with him, and gives him a nod as if the situation is returning to normal.

The civilians linger, and then move along. The one officer continues eye contact, looking rather afraid, if anything, and does not cease this expression with the nod. Facing Silver, he backs into the entryway of the grocery store as his partner approaches him. The partner looks over to the officer, then turns around and looks at Spec, and then at Silver, and then moves inside of the grocery store.

Whether it being a dream means the sensation is muted, or if it feels just as it should, it's enough to give Amber a fear of doctors. The end can't come soon enough, and after the veterinarian finishes she shakily sits up.

Amber thanks the doctor, though her eyes betray misgivings. She asks the others, "Glad that's over…how are we going to proceed now?"

Silver goes to the fallen changelings, ripping off clean strips of cloth to use to at least halt the bleeding. He then brings them over to the doctor.
"It is not exactly hospital-grade, but this should keep him from bleeding to death for now. He needs proper medical attention, probably from evacuation facilities outside of city. Assuming they have set those up."

There might be a Spark tomorrow.

He takes the pieces and immediately applies them to the wound.
"I don't know. I'm sure the clinics are already overflowing."
He presses down on the wound to apply more pressure
"And here I thought the pause on elective surgeries meant I had a day off."
Spec comes over
"We need to reopen this road."

Silver looks over at his son and nods. He goes over to the changelings' vehicle, moving the body in the drivers seat over and putting the other body in the backseat. Once that's done, Silver tries to drive the car out of the way of the evacuating civilians.

Moving the body is inconvenient to say the least, and the door on the car does not fully close. Nevertheless, the car, needing to be moved from its position locked into the other car, moves a little to the left and across the street. There is not much room to dump off a vehicle, but fortunately parking spaces on the side of the road still exist, and it may be dumped off next to a corner drug store.

Silver just needs to move it out of the way, but maybe it would be better to be just a bit farther away from prying eyes. Silver parks the car at the drug store, and returns to see if anything else needs to be done to restore the flow of traffic.

Silver goes to the vehicle to see that the hood is penetrated several times, the windshield is shattered, and slumped forward over the steering wheel is a middle aged unicorn stallion. Laying back in the passenger seat is a unicorn mare, who has multiple bloody wounds. Her neck is twisted back, and to the side, with her mouth partly open and muzzle slightly off to the right of the edge of the seat.
>>162957
Helder:
"Nightfall."

Poor mare...he locates the wounds on the stallion and puts pressure on them to try to keep him from bleeding out completely. Silver yells out to anypony who can hear and help him.
"WE HAVE WOUNDED HERE!"

Once they've pushed the car out of the way, Silver engages the car's parking brake. He turns to Spec.
"These radios, are they on closed frequency, or can we call someone for help with wounded and deceased?"

Oh, it's the veterinarian's? Amber asks him if he would be so kind as to hide them, and if he has any hidden sheltering spots like a cubbyhole or loose floorboards.

"Is that all?" Amber sounds disappointed by the lack of secret spaces, but unwilling to appear ungrateful, she continues, "Thank you very much. We're bureaucrats of the old government, and although we haven't done anything to warrant it, we're being hounded by the police. We won't be here long at all, just a few hours."

"Meadowbrook bridge, almost secure. We have casualties, but the bridge is intact. Not available for through traffic right now, continue to move around."
"How long until clear?"
"Uh, a few minutes, I think."
"More shots, central plaza. Not sure if they're guarding anything. Requesting support."
"Just leave'em there."
"Has anyone heard anything out of the Regional Transport Ministry?"
"They should be evacuated like everyone else."
"Not if you want the trains to run. I'm getting silence."
"They probably left already."
"Last of the buggers on the bridge killed. They overturned a car, this may take a while. Keep traffic diverted."
It goes on like this.

Silver motions to the traffic as he yells out.
"ALL CIVILIANS, PLEASE CONTINUE PROCEEDING TOWARDS NORTHPOINT!"
After this, he turns to the doctor.
"I am sorry to ask this of you, but do you think you can keep these two alive until medics arrive? We need to regroup with other Homeguard and help defend city."

Pedestrians simply walk across the street, turning their heads to look by with great concern at the damaged cars and at the scene. They quickly trot through the intersection. Cars need a moment to adjust to the situation, but start to speed through, and horns blare as cars try to move past pedestrians, and go north. The streets are backed up as far as Silver can see.
"I, I don't know. We need to get out o here." He says with some fear
Above, a fighter plane roars by at low altitude, going west and into the city.

Silver puts a hoof on the doctor's shoulder to calm him.
"It will be alright. There are police and Homeguard nearby to keep everypony safe, and medics will be arriving soon to help these two. You can leave if you want, but these two need help if they are to survive until medics arrive, and you are only one here who can do that."

A voice replies. The accent is strong
"Buggers are comin' out like a light shined on cockroaches. We got 'em spooked. Anyone need any help?"
Reply, strange accent:
"We have attempted sabotage at the Six Sister's Oil refinery, uh, the Celestial Oil plant. Trying to cause a backup."
In a Mareland accent,
"Couple got by at WMARE Television station, eastside. Trying to sabotage communications."
