GESB: Cursed Pride adventure

[Chad32]

Temrash hadn't followed them into medbay, as they should be able to find it themselves. Instead he went to the commons area to wait until their next destination.

Asda ran a quick scan of her own, it was her nature to double check things. That and things could have changed since the last scan.

"A transfusion would be best," Asda said as she checked the injury. "It's not serious, but she has lost a significant amount of blood. We don't have time for a test, so I'll have to take you up on that offer, Parker. Let's close her up and then we'll take care of the transfusion."

With one set of arms Asda was cleaning the area while with the other set she was prepping the suture kit.

"Grab that injector," Asda said to Parker, "it'll keep her out for a little bit longer while I stitch her up."

Meanwhile, Gaz had gone to the bridge. She figured the Medical bay would be crowded enough. She didn't want to distract Morgan either. Silver's injury wasn't serious, but she knew he would be concerned nonetheless.

Once she was up there she said to the pilot. "Get us out of here. Set a course back for the black, you know what to do."

The crewman nodded, it was a familiar routine.

[Darth Revan]

Parker took the injector and gave Silver the sedative. He then removed his helmet and placed it on a counter to the side. He extended his neck and said, "This is the best access to my veins you'll have without a long process of taking off my armor."

[Gaz]

Asda glanced over and said, "It'll do."

Then her attention was on the wound. She had started to close it up and was muttering to herself as she did.

"No major damage," she muttered, "that's good. No major veins or arteries hit."

A moment later the injury was closed and covered.

"When she wakes up she should take it easy for a while," Asda said, "I don't want to be replacing ripped stitches."

Asda washed her hands and motioned for Parker to step closer. She had the equipment ready.

"I'm going to need you to sit in that seat next to Silver," Asda said with a smirk. "You're a tad bit taller than I am."

[Darth Revan]

Parker took the seat and tried not to knock anything over. He then extended and twisted his neck so Asda wouldn't have any trouble getting to any blood vessels. "Ready when you are."

[Gaz]

Asda stepped over and gently poked at the side of Parker's neck until she found a suitable vein. She swabbed it and picked up the needle. Attached was a bag that would collect the blood.

"I don't think I need to give you too much warning about the prick, right?" Asda asked as she stuck the needle into the vein and secured it in place.

"You're gonna have one heck of a stiff neck when we're done," Asda commented. "I need you to try and not move your neck too much until we're done. Shouldn't take long."

[Darth Revan]

Parker smiled and said, "Don't worry doc, I was on a sniping mission when I was twelve, waiting for a week for our target. I think I'll be okay like this for a few minutes." He then lightly placed his hand on Silver's forehead, closed his eyes, and concentrated on not moving.

[Gaz]

Asda nodded and set about a few minor chores about the med bay while she waited for the bag to fill up. She glanced over every so often to see how it was coming along.

"That should do it," Asda said as she took the bag in one set of hands and removed the needle with the other.

"I'll get this ready," Asda said as she walked over to a machine. "Will just take a moment."

[Darth Revan]

Parker stretched his neck regaining full mobility. "Thanks doc." He stayed where he was watching Silver's unconscious face, looking to make sure she stayed okay. Every once in a while he glanced to see what Asda was doing, but for the most part his full attention was on Silver.

[Gaz]

Morgan had remained quiet during the whole time. He was glad that the injury was minor. He had just found his daughter again, he wasn't sure what would happen to him if he lost her again.

"You alright, Captain?" Asda asked as she walked by.

Morgan sighed. "Yeah," he said, "I'm fine. You do good, Doc. Don't know what this ship would do without you. Do you ever miss your hospital job? You were one of the top in your field."

Asda was walking back to Silver with the prepped transfusion.

"Wouldn't change a thing," Asda replied. "After learning what that hospital was doing for the CG. Can't believe they would condone such a thing and there are doctors that go along with it."

While she was talking, Asda had been setting everything up and had gotten the transfusion started.

"I still owe you for getting me out of there," Morgan said.

Asda shook her head. "Nonsense," she said.

A little while after the transfusion had been put into place, Silver squeezed her eyes tight before opening them and then closing them against the bright lights and gave a groaning sound. She turned her head to the side, hoping it would block the lights. She heard voices around her and it sent a twinge of fear through her. She hadn't remembered what had happened. "Where am I?" she wonderd and was almost afraid that she was back at the lab where so many doctor's had poked, prodded, and tested her and she gave a whimper. Then everything came flooding back to her and she remembered that she had been hit in a crossfire and had passed out.

[Darth Revan]

Parker felt Silver moving her head about more rapidly, he then heard her whimper, "Doc, she's waking up!" He got up and moved his hand from her forehead to her cheek, "Silver, Silver, it's okay. You're aboard The Cursed Pride in the med bay. Silver, can you hear me?"

[Midnight_Huntress]

The images of the past kept threatening to invade her conciousness and she shook her head again whimpering out, "No!"

[Darth Revan]

Parker couldn't tell what was happening to Silver, but he knew it wasn't good. He tried to calm her 'til Asda could help her. He kept his voice low and calm, "Silver, I need you to concentrate on my voice. Listen to only my voice. What you're seeing isn't real. You're safe on board your father's ship. You're safe. There's nothing here that will harm you. Nothing can harm you."

[Midnight_Huntress]

She heard a voice that didn't match the memories. She tried to listen to that voice. It mentioned her father. Soft tears began to fall from her eyes. Her father was here now, she remembered him. "Father...." she said softly.
