@Claire [There were many options, just go for whatever]
The day had continued to break into a new morning, the sun rising above the shattered skyline of London. All around her the camp begun to stir once more, the pause for sleep being the only silence in the whole part in the day leading up to this moment. Above her flew another escort of fighter planes, even the old decommissioned Harriers were flying in formations. Their jets roared across the sky, the windows of nearby buildings rattled. Flying low to the city were helicopters of many kinds, news, search and rescue, air ambulances, and troop transports. The fire of the hospital continued to burn off in the distance.
Against the side of the ambulance Claire could see the rest of the park, the mud drying up to cracked dust, the forms of orderlies, nurses and octors running to an fro, all of them looking completely wrecked and at their breaking point, matching the sobs of the doctor to her side. It had been one of the worst disasters since the second world war, the death toll reaching several hundreds of thousands of people.
A flock of birds flew off from the gardens, flying away from an approaching helicopter, it's form circling above them.
