"Through the Blurred Darkness, Your Hand"

Prompt: A massive explosion, and everything blurs. Two stretchers and flashing lights. Nash can't see his surroundings; darkness seems to be swirling around in his mind. But there's only one thing he sees, that hand he feels... Ivan. His eyes widen, and all he sees is Ivan, his hand clutched tightly. Paramedics tried to separate them, to get them into separate ambulances, but Nash wouldn't let go. Ivan... The explosion must have left him with such obvious damage, because Nash couldn't make out the face he saw. His face was covered in black ash. A nurse came out and separated Nash's hand from Ivan's. That's when Nash felt a huge void in both his hand and his heart.
