Discussions and Treatments

A joint log between, Ranger,Kat, Merina, and Angeliz and Takhoma and Trank under guard in the lounge.

 

 

Schawnsee exited the runabout seeing Merina, "I'll go with you to Sickbay and watch over the ranger." Kat turns and assists with getting Ranger onto a gurney in order to get him to Sickbay. Merina stops them as they exit the runabout and performs a preliminary scan on Ranger before she allows him to be quickly moved to sickbay.

 

 

Meanwhile, Takhoma and Trank had been taken to the lounge near the bridge for safe keeping. Takhoma sat in the lounge trying to figure out how to help these people.

 

Trank, who knew they were being guarded by security outside, is seething about his current predicament. He looks at Takhoma. "Well this sure beats being left on the planet. Ok we are going to have to deal with a trial.

For some reason we aren't much liked here. Either way we need to learn a little bit about our captors. I mean they helped us then they lock us in this room. What's the deal?"

 

Takhoma looks back to Trank. "That's for sure." Now hardening the look she's giving him, "Why? Do you plan on taking over this ship? I think that would be a little hard to do."

 

Trank returns the sharp look Takhoma was giving him, "No! I intend to learn who we are dealing with so when we are standing in this kangaroo court we aren't completely in the dark about this federation."

Kat follows Merina and the others into sickbay, watching the injured man as the medical team moves the man to a biobed and sets the restraints that were ordered by Commander Ridire. "Doctor, How bad is he?"

 

Ranger, at that point regains consciousness. He then begins looking around the sick bay and looking for his team members Trank, and Takhoma. He then looks up at the doctor as she is scanning him. "Hey there, do you know of my team and how they are?"

 

Merina responds to Kat "He's got an injured leg and some burns." She then turns her attention to Ranger, "I'm not for sure. They have probably been taken to the brig or the lounge."

 

Ranger, looking at the one the doc referred to as 'Kat', directly asked her. "Are they, my team, ok and being treated well? All we desire to do here is assist in making a wrong right."

 

Kat moved so the man could see her without moving his head much. "Your team has been placed into custody for the time being. It will be up to the Captain if they are held as prisoners, or guests."

Arch Angel had landed his fighter and completed the mandatory shut down procedures. As he was being cleared from the flight operations center, he hears the communication of the shuttle returning. He looks at his monitor and heads straight for the flight bay. He had a bone to pick with a certain crewman, and this time it could not wait. He enters the nearest turbo lift and states the destination. "Shuttle hangar!" He then thinks a moment and calls out.

 

"Computer, Location of crew member Schawnsee." The computer comes back with the reply that didn't make him any happier. "Lt Schawnsee is in sickbay."

 

Angel closes his eyes and takes a deep breath trying to calm him self slightly. "Computer, belay last destination. Change direction to sickbay." The computer does as ordered, halts then changes direction heading for Sickbay.

 

****************************************

 

Back up in the lounge Trank and Takhoma continue their conversation. "The less we know about them, the better they'll probably think that we're planning to sabotage or do something to their ship." Takhoma says as she sits there watching Trank pace a bit.

 

"But if we go blindly into this, that one, I think I heard them call him a commander or something, is going to have us killed for sure. He seems like he would be quick to entrap us or something." Trank says turning once again to pass Takhoma as he walks across the floor. Trank stops and moves back to look at Takhoma, "We can't get tied down here and killed for something we know nothing about. We need to get to HA and pay him back for what he did to Ranger. If we don't learn about what we are doing we might as well hang it up."

 

Takhoma took in a deep breath and let it out slowly. "I know. I tried getting HA to tell me what's going on, but I didn't get any useful information from him," she replied.

Back in sickbay, Kat speaks again to Ranger, "If they and you are willing to help, you will need to speak with the Commander or the CMO. I have no control over the situation." She turns to Merina. "Doc when you are finished with this gentleman could you tend to my arm please?"

 

Ranger allowed Kat to complete her request of the doctor and then asked her, "I can understand the reasoning, however I implore you, Do not let our past actions dictate your judgment. We were apparently an unknowing party to a grievous wrong that had begun to take place long before we accepted a contract job on that planet."

 

"I understood, and I will relay the message." Kat says as she watches Merina work on repairing the gentlemen's injuries.

 

Merina looked over to Kats arm for a moment and then went back to what she was doing. "Of course, Kat, Why don't you go relax on a biobed until I'm done with him? That is if you're okay with that."

 

"Thank you Doc." She again turns to the Ranger. "If your team does nothing rash, they should be ok. I'll relay your message when I see the Commander or my Chief." Kat then moves to the biobed indicated by Merina.

 

Ranger watched Merina as she tends to his wounds. "Thank You. You are most kind. Do not worry you will have no trouble from us. When may I join, or speak to my team?"

 

Merina continues treating Ranger. "Thanks. I'm not sure when you can join your team."

 

Kat over hears Ranger. "You are to remain here, under guard and restraints until released by the CMO and our Commander, His orders. I'm sorry."

 

Ranger nods, hearing Kat's response. He sighs, "I understand, Thank you." He then lays there looking at the ceiling and thinking. "I just hope the 'Black Box' data will help get those two Rats."

 

******************************************

 

Arch Angel Exits the lift and unconsciously begins the no speak to Kat. "Little one...where in the blazes are you?"

 

As Kat sits back on the biobed, she relaxes enough to hear Angels Words to her. "I'm in Sickbay don't worry I'm fine."

 

The next instant Angel enters the sick bay and sees Merina. "Ok, where is she??" He asks in a not so nice manner.

 

Merina hears the tone in Angel's voice and turns to face him. "Who Kat? She's over there on the biobed." Merina says as she gives a slight point to where Kat had gone to.

 

Kat had just leaned back on the biobed trying to relax. Her arm was hurting a bit. The medications Debbie had given her had long worn off. Kat sits up quickly hearing Angels voice. "Why are you here? I'm fine. There's nothing to worry about." She had forgotten about her hair and eye change and that he did not know of it.

 

Angel quickly walked over to Schawnsee's bedside. He had an obvious *Redder* than usual color to his face.

 

Kat sees his face. "Angel I'm fine, why are you upset?"

 

He looked at his little one, "You know perfectly well why I am here, as well as why I am upset. Or has your little vacation removed all of your senses, and the knowledge of our ways??"

 

Kat heard the displeasure in his voice and looked him in the eyes. "It was not a vacation Angel. I was on a mission. Can we speak of this later?"

 

Angel glared at Schawnsee, returning her attempted stern gaze; with just a touch of no speak. 'I fully am aware of you being away on a mission. However I am also aware of your child like impatience as well.' He then spoke again out loud. "Yes we will speak in great detail of this later."

 

Merina has finished repairing Ranger's injuries. "Well, you're taken care of," she said. She then begins to make her way over to Schawnsee with a new treatment tray to begin treating her burns.

 

Kat looks around seeing Merina heading towards her with the triage tray. "Thank you Angel. As soon as my detail is complete, I will meet you to speak of this."

 

He softens his voice lightly speaking to Kat as the Doc approaches. "You know of my sworn oath. You know my heart my little one. We will speak later when you are stronger. He then turns to Merina and speaks to her. "Take good care of her doc. She will need to be strong before she gets that little neck of hers wrung by me." He gives the doc a grin letting her know he's teasing.

 

Merina smiled back at Angel, "Don't worry she'll be fine," she said to him. She then begins scanning the injury to Kat's arm to begin treatment.

 

Kat looked to doctor Merina as she spoke to Angel and then began the treatment of the arm. "Doc, your going to fine it's not as bad as it looks. The blisters are fakes, but the underlying is real. Deb had to make it look real to pass incase we were captured. I do have to admit though it is hurting," Kat says as she watches Angel heading for the door knowing he's very angry at her. He will get over it, she hopes. "Doc I think the stuff that's making the blisters is starting to make the actual injury hurt worse."

 

Angel turns and looks as Merina begins treating his little one's wounds. He then thinks to himself, "She will be the death of me yet, our ancestors give me strength." He turns back towards the doors shaking his head and exits sick bay.

 

*****************************************

 

Back up in the lounge Trank frowns. "This is all one big nasty web and we are stuck in the middle, between HA and these federation people. We know what HA is capable of but not the federation. We need to learn about this faction and hope whatever we find is helpful."

 

Takhoma stood, walking over to the window to look out of it. "Well I used to be part of the Maquis. The Federation is not a faction for starters. They don't 'want to hurt, but they will if they have to," she replied.

 

Trank moved over to Takhoma's side. "Really, I never really came in contact with the federation that I know of. They seem rather interested in keeping us trapped here but that's obvious. Is there anything else you can tell me about them?" He then takes a seat and gets comfortable.

 

Takhoma continued to look out the window, but spoke to Trank. "I only encountered the federation a few times during the Dominion War. That's all I know."

 

Trank sighs a moment and looks to Takhoma, "I will ask for some information on the Federation. The reason I don't know if I came in contact with the federation before is I don't remember much of anything before 6 years ago. A few glimpses here and there but I know that someone had put me in some sort of military and they trained me in both political and normal combat. "

 

Takhoma turned away from the window and walks over to Trank and sat next to him "I remember everything up until now."

 

Trank shakes his head, "I wish I could say the same. I remember being taken to the planet and pretty much given to HA and his group and I've been there ever since." He looks back to Takhoma, "I don't know why I brought this up. I guess I'm going to get a guard." Trank gets up and knocks on the door of the room hoping to get the guards attention.

 

Takhoma just shakes her head as Tank knocks on the door.

Trank stops knocking when he gets no response and just returns to a seat. "No answer. I'd say this is a nasty turn of events." He says glancing at Takhoma.

 

*********************************************

 

Merina takes a tricorder and scans the injury. "It looks like your skin is starting to get irritated by the fake wound."

 

Kat looks back up to Merina, "Will it take much to repair it?"

 

"No Kat, it won't." Merina begins to treats the irritated skin and removes the fake injury.

 

Ranger had been listening to the Doctor and her patient. He then asked, "Doctor, may I at least communicate with

my team, or am I to wait for an interview with your commander first?"

 

Kat interjected for Merina, "I'm sorry to say there will be no communication until our Captain or commander has a chance to speak to you, and them."

 

Merina smiled at her patient. "Thanks Kat."

 

Ranger spoke again to Kat. "I see, so we may be left hanging out to dry, literally. I can appreciate your position, However I just ask you to keep in mind this one small thing."

 

Kat heard Ranger but ignored him for a moment. "Your welcome Doctor, I'm going to remain here to watch over him" she says as she nods towards Ranger. "How much more here before I can retake my post?"

 

"Well Kat you're finished. You can take your post whenever you see fit." Merina said as she began to replace the equipment she had used on Kats arm back on the triage tray.

 

"Thank you Doc." Kat stands and moves back over to Ranger. "What is it you wish for me to keep in mind Sir?"

 

"I will ask you to keep in mind, #1,We did not have to contact you after the incident, #2 Both I and my team could have easily slipped into the background and fled the planet, #3 We remained, and sought you out to help you." Ranger says as he is still laying on the biobed under restraints.

 

"I will make note of that and pass it along to my supervisors. I suggest you save your strength and rest for a while. I'm sure my Chief, Commander and/or the Captain will want to speak to you." Kat has some compassion for the man and gently lays her hand on his shoulder before she backs away and activates the containment field that was ordered after the man had been treated for his wounds. She went to a chair across from his biobed and sat down herself rubbing her now repaired arm lightly.

 

Merina goes over to her desk and inputs the information that she collected from both Kat and Ranger.
