Anari sat by a tree, looking at the samples she and Sas had already collected. The wilderness looked green, which was about it. Everything was very uneventful, the surroundings were very quiet, and the noise present was the squawking that birds made as they flew overhead.

 

Sas loved being outdoors. She looked at the scenery then at the weird collection of the red plant they collected.

 

“Can’t wait to get readings on it. Anari what do you think of that red plant, sure is different, isn't it?”

 

"Yes, it's ... red." Anari studied the plant, prodding its leaves with a toothpick, which she had in her science kit.

 

“Don't prod it too much we don't know what it is. Maybe it is responsible for the plague.”

 

Anari stopped prodding the plant at once and placed it back into its container. Replacing the toothpick with a scanner in her hand, she scanned the plant to see what it actually was.

 

Sas watched Anari scanned plant while she took readings on Anari. “How do you feel Anari?” Sas asked while continuing the scans.

 

"I feel fine." Anari looked back at Sas, who was taking a reading of her. "Um ... how about you?"

 

"I feel great even though I was close to it I think." Sas looked back at Anari "Why are you looking at me like that?"

 

"What do you mean?" Anari looked back to the scan results of the plant. "That's how I look at every one else, if I don't look at you how would I know you're there?"

 

"True but you had me going there. Thought maybe I was growing an extra ear or something since I was concerned about you poking the plant when I was the one who climbed and got it." Sas puts tricorder down "Well you check out fine."

 

Anari looked back at Sas, still a little bit confused. "Oh ... well you don't have an extra ear growing ... I was just asking if you felt anything abnormal. Do you?"

 

"No I am fine for now anyways. Do you feel like continuing our expedition now?" Sas looked at Anari, she wanted to see more of the outdoors.

 

Anari closed her tricorder and nodded. "Sure, this plant checks out fine, its harmless for now. Lets keep going." Anari placed the plant container into her science kit and stood up.

 

"Which way?"

 

Sasbas looked to the right and points that way. "How about we head to the right there seems to be a hill there lets see what's up and over shall we??"

 

"Okay right it is." Anari nodded and began walking. Sas followed Anari, smiling to herself.

 

"Well lets go to the top of the hill and see what is up and over it" Sas Said.

 

Anari nodded and began to climb the hill. "Hope there's something over there."

 

As Sas climbed up the hill she looked over at Anari "There has to be, I just have a gut feeling that we will find something. Besides nothing ventured, nothing gained" Sas laughed lightly.

 

As they headed up the hill Anari smiled and nodded. "Right!"

 

The science and medical officers continued their expedition up the hill to see what wild and exotic plant and animal life grew there and hopefully to uncover a source leading to a cure of the plague.
