((CO's Office, Anchorage, Denali Station))
After her friend had left Aria sat in her chair, taking in the situation, letting it wash over her. It was a big job before her, both figuratively and metaphorically. Stealing a glance out the large windows, she took a deep breath and folded her hands in her lap, deciding the paperwork could wait for a while.
Of course, experience told her it was only a matter of time before the real work began, exploration, diplomacy, building, all those things that caused her to join the fleet in the first place.
Aria was a little ashamed to admit she had closed her eyes and began to dose - no doubt a result of the previous unpleasantness still working through her system. She was jolted awake with a shrill chime from her comm cadge.
Indobri: =/\= Doctor Indobri to Station Operations and Captain Oddas. We have a situation in the water filtration plant. Please send an emergency response team down here immediately. Ensign Sera has fallen over the side and appears to be drowning. =/\=
oO What was your first big emergency at the Station? Invasion? Earthquake? Meldown? No! It was a drowning! Oo
Oddas: =/\= Oddas here, dispatch emergency personnel at once. =/\=
Operations: =/\= Responses =/\=
Indobri: =/\= There is some sort of contamination in the water, which we were investigating. There may also be some life form involved as there is evidence of telepathic activity. =/\=
oO Awesome - we are drinking our first contact with the inhabitants of Denali. Oo
Oddas: =/\= Cordon off the area and keep me apprised. =/\=
She stood and stretched, pulling on her prosthetic until her shoulder popped.
Oddas: =/\= Oddas to Mister Falt. =/\=
Falt: =/\= Response =/\=
Oddas: =/\= It seems Doctor Indobri and Ensign Sera have discovered a telepathic life form at in the water treatment plant, we need to start ascertaining what we are dealing with. =/\=
Falt: =/\= Response =/\=
Oddas: =/\= Understood. Oddas to Doctor Indobri, status report. =/\=
Indobri: =/\= She’s out of the water, but I think there is some form of lifeform controlling her actions. We might be dealing with a sentient life form, Captain. =/\=
Aria grimaced and stretched her neck.
Oddas: =/\= I'm on my way Doctor, so is a science team. =/\=
Sera: Response
Oddas: =/\= Oddas to Transporter Room, beam me to Doctor Indobri's location. =/\=
It took only a couple of moments for the swirl of light to surround her, and deposit her next to the water reservoir, the Doctor and a very wet Ensign nearby.
Oddas; Report Doctor.
Indobri: Response
Sera: Response
Falt: Response (?)
Oddas: ::to Sera:: I'm sorry - how can I address you?
Sera: Response
She looked to the others for some sort of confirmation of what the organism now inhabiting Sera was saying.
Falt/Indobri: Response
Oddas: I am Captain Oddas Aria of Starfleet, and I am responsible for the crewman you are inhabiting. Is there some way you can prove to she is ok?
