(( Main Sickbay, Deck 5, USS Valkyrie-A ))

Sherlock: I'd just really like to know more about you and how you came to be in contact with some of our officers and how we can help you.

Reine'X: You mentioned earlier that someone might hurt you…? What do you mean? Who are you talking about?::She paused just for a second, then continued:: You also said that we are no different from… them? Who is “them”? I understand that you are scared… of them… but you don’t have to be. You are on a Federation ship now, and you are quite safe here.

Doucet: Charn, I don’t suppose you know if your “buddies” would use any specific kind of drugs on you?

Charn: response

Doucet: Strathmore, did you find that information on the Cullum like I asked?

Aine stood back ever so slightly, observing what was happening. Observing Charn and how he was reacting to the whole situation. A Sickbay could be a confusing place, especially when an emergency was taking place.

Strathmore: Yes, Doctor, just reading. One moment.

Sherlock: They're not all awake yet?

Doucet: There’s four more to wake up. They may or may not be as quiet as the other two for now. Pick one that’s not the Cullum and give them a shot. There should be two doses available in this hypospray, easy.

Charn: Response

Strathmore: It looks like their metabolisms might process the adrenaline differently so we might have to compensate or use an alternative, but the real difficulty will be piercing the living stone and metal that composes their exterior. But I imagine you already have a solution for that.

Doucet: Oh good. That confirms what I suspected. Adrenaline might not work for him after all. We’ll need to find something different.

Reine’X: Response

Doucet: Yes, yes, that’s fine. Talk to them after you get them awake. Make sure they know where they’re at.

Strathmore: We could try animazine.

Reine’X/Charn: Response

Doucet: If you know any of them, that’d be great. Names, at least? Favorite drugs of choice?

Reine’X/Charn: Response

Strathmore: I can synthesize it if need be.

Her eyebrows shot up quickly, knowing that was a potentially dangerous idea. Even if it was a feigning need for "fume." But then again, withdrawal could cause just as many issues, up to and including outright violence.

Sherlock: But only on an as needed basis.

Strathmore: I have a PADD here. Need me to look up anything?

Reine’X/Charn/Doucet: Response

Strathmore: Romulans, I know. I can speak Romulan too. Not that we’ll necessarily need that but still.

Sherlock: Speaking it's one thing, talking it is another.

Merely knowing the words of Rhihansu was rarely enough. There was a certain way the Romulans spoke, a game of sorts, that could mean more than the words at their face value. She didn't know the extent of the Counselor's experience with such things, but she was there just in case.

Reine’X/Charn/Doucet: Response

Strathmore: I can do that, certainly.

Sherlock: Okay, ::looking at Strathmore:: Ensign, you and Doctor Doucet, I want the two of you working on waking up those patients.

Reine’X/Charn/Doucet: Response

Strathmore: response

Sherlock: Ensign ::looking at Reine'X:: you and I, we're going to have a chat with ::nodding towards Charn:: Mister Charn.

Reine'X/Charn: response

Sherlock: Doctor Doucet, we're going to use your office.

Before waiting for an answer, Aine ushered Reine'X and Charn towards the Assistant Chief Medical Officer's office. There was so much going on and she needed to get things back on track. Once they were inside, she closed the glass door, silencing them from the "outside world."

She adjusted the pair of chairs in front of the desk, facing them slightly towards one another before sitting against the front edge of the Doctor's desk.

Sherlock: Mister Charn, I'm going to cut to the chase. What kind of danger are you in?

Charn: response

Reine'X: response
