=/\= Sickbay of Chimera =/\=
Rangi smiled warmly as Athena entered the Sickbay. "Hello...thanks for
coming at such short notice. Lt. Bradman had to cancel and I'm keen to get
as many checks done today as possible."
She indicated the nearby biobed. "Please..." and followed Athena as she made
her way towards it.
"Hhmmm.. that's interesting he cancelled his appointment with me as well,"
she said as she hopped onto the bio bed. "I'm trying to get through as many
evaluations as I can as well." She smiled at the doctor, "I guess I'll be
glad that people aren't as excited to see me so that I could be
accommodating for you."
"He's rushed off his feet at the moment." Rangi said reaching for a new
padd. "I don't think there is anywhere on this ship that is problem free at
the moment."
She smiled down at Athena. "Right," she said briskly "I know you aren't due
for this for a couple of months..but I'm compiling up to date records of all
the crew.So...any problems at all?...anything I should know about?"
Athena thought for a few more minutes.
"I was having more than the usual headaches back on Aurora but I haven't had
one for more several months now." She paused for a couple of minutes, "I
guess that would be the only thing new since my last physical." She looked
at Rangi for a bit and then asked , "Do you mind if I gather information as
well?"
Rangi glanced up from writing on her padd. "Not at all.." she answered with
a smile."We'll each do our own thing and 'kill two birds with one stone' as
they say." Selecting a tricorder she said "Please just relax..."
Athena took a deep breath and did as the doctor asked. She calmly asked,
"Are things going well for you?"
"Oh yes...very.." Rangi answered reading off the results of a scan. "Those
headaches...where exactly were they?..I mean to the front?..one
side?..behind the eyes?"
Athena paused a moment she hadn't really thought about it before. "Kind of
all over the front but more like that's where it ended rather than began."
Rangi added more to the padd and began another scan. "Possibly stress.."
she said frowning slightly at the results but smiling at Athena. The thought
that talking to Rob Richards in itself was likely to bring on a headache
'popped' into her head and was immediately dismissed.
Your not finding it difficult to do your job with things working one minute
and then not the next?"
As if to demonstrate her point the EMH popped up asking "please state the
nature of your medical emergency."
It had been fixed but was acting up again and Rangi took very little notice
now.
"Umm, do you really need his help, " Athena asked as she pointed to the EMH.
"Sorry?" Rangi looked up. "Oh..him.." she smiled, "no, not at
all!...Computer..deactivate the EMH"
She laid the tricorder aside as the figure vanished.
"It was doing that all morning yesterday. The capt. disabled it for me and
later Lt. Bradman came and had a look at it. But this morning it was
waiting for me when I arrived." She smiled at Athena's altered expression.
"You get used to it," she grinned.
"I see," she smiled back and wrote a couple of notes on her own padd as
well.
"Ok...blood test?...won't take a moment.....are you settled in?" Rangi asked
making light conversation as she always did at this point in the
examination. Too many people were prone to keel over if they focused on the
vial.
"As much as possible, she said as she noticed the direct distraction of a
practiced doctor. "How about you?"
"My quarters are surprisingly comfortable." Rangi replied "The door tends to
close on you but apart from that there's nothing wrong. Can you sit up
please?"
Athena sat up and smile, "All done?"
"Yes..that's it! that wasn't so bad was it?" Rangi asked with a smile "And
what about you? You've asked me hardly anything.."
"Please state the nature of the medical emergency" said the familiar voice.
"Actually, I'm done as well," she smiled at the doctor's confused
expression. As the EMH asked his question again, Athena calmly looked at th
e hologram and said, "You, sir are the problem." Upon hearing Athena's
answer the EMH disappeared. Athena smiled over her shoulder at Rangi, "See
you around."
"Off duty, only I hope "Rangi smiled in reply "I'll call you if the results
show any problem and if the headaches return...?"
Athena raised an eyebrow as she went out the door, but never answered the
doctor's question.
