*** Sickbay * USS Chimera *** +Taps+ Fisher here. Scott responded immediately to Rangis call. +Taps+ Scott?...whats the situation there? +Taps+ Currently three critical....Haynes..T'zaar...and Webster....twenty two others in need of care..seventeen fit for light duties...oh and Rangi...Lt Idrani is here. +Taps+ Idrani?..when?...why? Rangi looked towards the engineers who, it appeared, had completed the repairs and were packing their equipment away. +Taps+ He came in...about fifteen minutes ago...complaining of weakness...headache. I'd like you to look at him..I've done preliminary tests...and I think we may have a problem. At the mention of Galaan, Rangi immediately thought the trouble must be concerned with the hallucinations he had experienced. {Its developed into something more?} she wondered. +Taps+ One moment Scott Varaan, in charge of the small team of engineers, walked towards her. "The repairs are complete Ma'am." he said "The sensor cluster is at full effiency." "Thankyou." Rangi glanced towards the overhead cluster and back to the tall Vulcan engineer. "Do you know if the transporters are working?" she asked. "I believe only Transporter 2" he replied. "Ok...thankyou for all you've done here." The engineer inclined his head and turned away to meet the team waiting for him. Rangi watched them leave sickbay,speaking to Scott as she did so. +Taps + Scott? I want you to transport the three critical cases ... and Galaan too.The repairs are done here..but with the Red Alert, we'll continue to keep most patients in the temporary sickbay. Transport back with the four patients....if we're going into battle again I need you here. Scott acknowledged the order. Rangi walked around the newly restored department tapping her fingers together in nervous energy, glancing here and there at the repaired bay and wondering what had actioned the Red Alert. She knew they were very near the Kzenti homeworld and that in all reality, Athena and Martin Guzman would be on the Bridge with Shane, ready to begin the Diplomatic meeting. She knew that she would have been there too, as AXO, but for the fact that Chimera had come under fire. But now they were at Red Alert again and things were looking far from promising for a diplomatic mission. ** "Galaan...can you hear me?" The Andorian made agitated movements as though in an effort to break free from a bad dream.He muttered something they didnt understand and then cried out "Ph'ell 'Ph'ell' " in real distress. Scott glanced quickly at the CMO "Whats 'Ph'ell?...do you know?" Rangi nodded, tapping onto a medpadd. " Not what..who...Ph'ell was his wifes name." Scott looked surprised." Oh..I didnt know he was married." "She died some time ago...in tragic circumstances." Rangi explained meeting Scotts eyes. She shook her head and looked down at their patient. "I dont know what we've got here." she said quietly. Scotts expression of concern matched hers. "He's showing all the signs of a massive histamic reaction...and even given that his physiology is different to ours...there should have been some responce by now." he said and watched the bio levels on the display. "Think we should try a Tryptophan-Lysine distillate?" he asked. Rangi shook her head. "No" she said thoughtfully. Scott glanced at her. "No?" he queried. She looked at him and explained her reasoning. "Well..I know they are more powerful, but if the treatment proves to be long then it would result in a fatigued state and without knowing the exact cause...I dont want to add any more complications." Scott nodded."Its so similar to Urodelean Flu symptoms but Corphizine just isnt kicking in." Rangi picked up the hypospray and clicked in a new vile. " Let's stick with what we know...Phentetalin ...and when the test results come back.." she met Scotts gaze "...we'll go from there." He watched her administer the spray. Galaan, lost to them in some strange tormented world,continued to call his wifes name but grew calmer as the powerful drug had effect. "I'm going to check on T'zaar" Rangi said. They exchanged an look of understanding each thinking that the Andorian was fighting a battle that they could do little to prevent. *** End Log *** LtCmdr Rangi Summers CMO/AXO USS Chimera & Ltjg Scott Fisher AMO USS Chimera (npc) Rangi
