A man awakens in unfamiliar surroundings.
Soiled sheets, grimy walls, and a ceiling of peeling plaster.
And agonizing pain.
As the pilot stirs to consciousness, there are a few moments of disorientation, followed by a lengthy cry of pain. He twists about, weakly, trying to get his bearings, but his entire body is beaten and bruised, and his leg is a ruined mass of meat and bone.
"Someone!" he screams, hoarsely, his throat still damaged from smoke inhalation, "someone, please help! God, it hurts!" He fumbles weakly with his hands, reaching out for the source of his agony, pressing his hands to his thigh, now expertly-set and dressed, but nevertheless blazing with pain, as his face contorts in distress and agony.
