LtCmdr Skyfire: Not On My Watch, Part I
Chythar Skyfire
(( Bridge, Outside Captain's Ready Room ))
::The trio approached the door and CD pressed the chime. Silence. Nefan frowned alongside him. The Andorian also looked unamused.::
Skyfire: Not usual at all...
::He pressed it again.::
::More silence. ::
Skyfire: That's not good... Computer, CMO override. Authorization Skyfire omega delta four Charlie.
::The door slid open, the lights were on nobody was home. At that, he paused and scratched his chin thoughtfully.::
oO Where else would I look...? Oo
Venal: ::He paused.:: I heard from Lieutenant Alexander that the Romulan attache, Talana, and the Captain have...history. Perhaps we should attempt to locate the attache.
::Chythar nodded silently. That’d probably be the next place to look.::
sh'Idrani: I agree. Maybe then-
::sh’Idrani stopped suddenly. The deck plating shifted slightly beneath his feet, and he heard something like a dull thrumming in the background. What it was, he didn’t know.::
sh'Idrani: What was that? Did something blow up?
::Suddenly, the red alert klaxons went off, blaring in his ears for only a moment before the sound dulled. Thanks to the EARS implants, he knew they were at red alert but didn't have to hear it at full blast.::
Skyfire: Damn it all. Computer, location of Fleet Captain Quinn Reynolds.
Computer: Fleet Captain Reynolds is on deck 9 in the 413 Memorial.
::Chythar snapped his fingers and grabbed a medkit from the nearby storage locker, glancing to his companions. Past experience taught him to be prepared for anything.::
Skyfire: Long story, but ah hope ah willnae have to use it.
sh’Idrani / Venal: Response
Skyfire: You two are with me. We’re goin’ to deck 9.
sh’Idrani / Venal: Tag
(( Deck 9, 413 Memorial ))
::As they neared the pillar, Chythar forced himself not to freeze. There wasn’t time for him to freeze. He saw the captain slumped unconscious on the floor beside it, clammy and pale, her dress whites and the grey carpet around her stained a dark crimson. Every instinct told him she had little time left, and he had only a few seconds to pull a miracle out of his little box to save her life. The last thing he wanted to do was explain to the ever-gruff and not very personable Commander Brunsig she died on his watch. CD wanted to do everything in his power to ensure that didn’t happen.::
Skyfire: Damn…
::He immediately set to work trying to control the bleeding, the blood now coating his hands as he made an effort to control it with pressure and hypercoagulin from his medkit, to no avail. Still working, he looked toward the other two officers.::
Skyfire: Secure the area. Document everything, since this is now a crime scene. Forensics, scans, pictures. Want to preserve whatever evidence is here.
sh’Idrani / Venal: Response
Skyfire: When you’re finished, report to Commander Brunsig. Understood?
sh’Idrani / Venal: Response
::Once the two gave the affirmative, he ordered an operating room prepped and initiated an emergency transport for himself and Captain Reynolds to sickbay. ::
