Lt Jania Nis - A quick jaunt can't hurt
Jania Nis
(( Central Medical Clinic, Ward 1, Main City of Argratha ))
Jania had located the place where the drugged man had been attacked. Someone needed to go check out the location, and she was not sure that it should be local police. She had little confidence in the Argrathi Authority, and the last thing she wanted was for a police officer to get bit. That meant Federation officials. Maybe marines.
Nis: Okay, we should call it in and maybe get some of Colonel Greaves’ people over there.
An let out an audible sigh of relief at hearing that Jania herself would not be going.
JoNz: Lieutenant Nis, do you want to make the report or should I?
Ugh, reports. They were the worst. But Jania knew that she was the one who should probably do it. Maybe she could pass it off to An … but that would be rude.
Nis: :: sighing :: We will, we suppose.
Zeka: Should I help?
Nis: Hmm? No, no, you stay on track.
An nodded and departed with the body and a small group of local nurses, leaving Kansz with Jania. After scanning the Caitian to ensure she hadn’t received a dose of the drug during her struggle, Jania sent her off to get cleaned up.
Alone, Jania put her hand on her mouth in thought. If the man hadn’t taken the drug himself but had been attacked by someone who had, that person could very well still be out there, still attacking people. And every second they waited put more people in danger. There might even be more victims at the scene already …
Well, a quick jaunt couldn’t hurt. It was only a few blocks away. She turned to the nearest security guard.
Nis: Be right back.
Guard: But —
Nis: We’re uploading the report of the incident to get all the right people here right now, but the reception’s terrible here.
Guard: Reception? There’s WiFi …
But Jania was already out a side door — coincidentally a different one than the one chosen by Kansz a few moments earlier. Outside, she pulled out her tricorder and map. After she oriented, she did, in fact, begin her report.
But she was interrupted almost immediately by a message from Kansz.
JoNz: =/\= Lieutenant Nis, I’m cleaned up, just wanted to check in and say that I haven’t fallen off the face of the planet. I’m going to do a perimeter walk around the clinic to make sure there are no more surprises, and then I’ll return to you and Nurse Zeka. =/\=
Nis: =/\= Great. Good luck. Stay safe. =/\=
And with that, Jania rushed to the scene of the attack. Just real quick. It would be a quick trip. An wouldn’t even notice she was gone.
