[Luckily, Scott doesn't trip, as unsteady as his movements are sometimes. The first few blind steps are the hardest, but he eventually manages a pace, only sometimes slowing down when he has to make a turn or his feet bump into rubble. It's all frustrating, wandering around like this, but the thought of Altius lying injured and bleeding because of him is more than enough to motivate the young mutant. He's not going to stop, not until he knows his-- the older man gets help. At least the increasing volume of nearby responders drive that hope up, pushing Scott to almost recklessly cross any remaining distance as the woman meets with him.
Kid. The address would normally annoy Scott, but he's far too distracted, shaking his head at her question and only getting frustrated when he's asked again if he's hurt. No, no, he's fine. He's not the one that needs medical assistance. His eyes are shut because... he's weird, that's all. It's not because he's injured, really! Eventually, Scott's jaw clenches and he eventually shouts, his tone slicing through their commentary.]
No! But someone else is hurt, back... behind me. Please, you need to help him!
[Has he always sounded so desperate? But situation calls for it. He barely even waits for them to acknowledge his plea for help, already nodding back and trying to lead the medics over to Altius' position. Thankfully, they don't push Scott with any more questions, only stepping up to assist his trek back as they search for the injured person that the young teen mentioned.]
