Max Irving:
Max stood up. His head still hurt, and now his face did too from where Deadpool had smacked him.
"Pretend I'm in a field of flowers with friends and loved ones? My friends and loved ones are all dead. That stupid little fucker. I told him I didn't need it! Wade, I swear to God when I get my hands on you..." Max said aloud, tossing the flower aside, not caring what people thought. Perhaps it was an aftereffect of the flashback, but he was enraged.
<No Max, you've got to stay calm.> He thought. He breathed deeply and meditated for a few seconds to calm himself. He was still in a foul mood, but had regained control of his emotions. Scanning the area, he looked around to see how the blood serum had affected others. Everyone was mostly healed, except for the Russian girl. Strange...
<Oh no...> He thought as he saw Jill. It seemed to still be having an effect on her. He heard the cry for a medic and knew it was probably up to him. This was no first aid issue. After a brief examination, he confirmed the convulsions were psychogenic in nature. This was almost certainly tied to the effects of Wade's blood serum.
<Dammit Wade...>
Turning to Chris, he said "Don't worry, she'll be fine. I need you to stay with her. Don't try to restrict her movements, don't give her any medication or put anything in her mouth, and stay calm. Speak calmly to her and reassure her. It'll be over in a few minutes. You might want to place something soft under her head to make it more comfortable and safe for her. Just stay with her, stay calm, and help her stay calm, and it won't last long."
Max stood up and entrusted Jill in Chris' care. He noticed two new troops had joined them, one of which was merely a child. <Good God, first a cripple, now a child? Have they no conscience? Surely these two could be of help in a safer setting?>
He walked up to Lt. Tear, who seemed quite stressed by the situation. "Is this everyone, Lieutenant? Where do we go from here? And more importantly, what are we up against? Is it just aliens, or are we dealing with the Venezuelan government? Or perhaps the aliens have infiltrated the government? What's going on? I still don't completely understand the mission."
OTR: So is that dead alien real? Can we have a confirmation from you, Wright? And perhaps a proper description of the alien? And is what spurge is saying true? Are we under attack?
