I handed back the cane to James and looked at my scanner.
I stood re-reading the results hoping it was wrong, but scan after scan showed the same thing.
"Um, everyone?" They turned to look at me, "The air is toxic so we need to be out of here in an hour, and the air is flammable so if we let off a shot our guns will explode. Its the exact ratio of gases to cause explosive failure in standard wepaons, which is a very exact amount."
All the toxins needed where those made by old ship engines, back in my old hospital we got a lot of sick pilots who hadn't used a good air filter. As such everybody in the ER had to know what the signs were somebody had been over exposed, and what advice to give for the future.
