=/\=Transport initiated.=/\= One of the cadets from the transporter room notified over the comms.

There was the familiar hum of materializing people inside of the bay which was promptly followed by screaming. There was a cluster of people, a little over forty, looking aghast as some creatures were dragging some of their number away from the group and visiting violence upon them. Three colonists were heavily injured and likely dead because of the quickly widening pools of blood and grotesque injuries. Another two were feebly protecting their vital areas but were still alive for the moment. A last was thrashing and kicking quite spiritedly against one of the creatures that was dragging her away from the large group.

Miya had been watching the transport, of course, but she was not expecting what came next - the screams and the gore and the creatures attacking the colonists … and their injuries, the blood, so much blood! She wasn’t sure if she could smell it through the forcefield but the sight was bad enough. Miya swallowed convulsively, forcing bile back into her stomach, determined not to throw up - not now, not here. She’d dealt with medical emergencies before. She’d helped people traumatised by loss, both on Bajor and during her medical training. She could do this.

But she still wanted to throw up.

OOC: I’ve been away/busy the past couple of weeks, so I do apologize for that. I took the liberty of inserting a couple of replies, and should be more active with the excitement starting.

Also, to the GM: per Red Alert procedure, I assume it’s okay to say that at least 2-4 security officers are on standby. If I’m mistaken, please correct me.

IC:
Henry stood at the door, his eyes widening in shock. Thankfully, the Academy didn’t graduate personnel who couldn’t handle unique situations. He snapped into action, grabbing his personal phaser with one hand and touching his commbadge with the other. =^= Rodier to all Security personnel, enact Procedure E-3, Cargo Bay 1. Rodier to Bridge, colonists under attack by unknown creatures. Engaging with your permission. =^= There was a clear tension in Henry’s voice, indicating haste.

He gestured to the two NCs and one NE behind him, who all took up an assault formation at the door, phasers already out and set to heavy stun. He could only hope the standby security officers headed to his location via Procedure E-3 would be as prepared as these three were.

Miya tightened her sweat-slicked grasp on her tricorder, wishing it was a phaser, and dragged her gaze away from the scene in the cargo bay to focus on Lieutenant O’Connell. “O-once we’re cleared to go in … who should we tend to first, sir?” She kept her voice as steady as possible, but her rapid breathing and pallor indicated the tension she was experiencing. Silently, she started to pray to the Prophets; they may be light years away in the Celestial Temple, but she believed in the power of their influence.

Ari stood staring at the scene before her. It was like being in an old horror holonovel…blood and gore…screaming. The sort of primal screaming that only comes when someone knows they are about to enter a fight for their lives or worse still, die.

“No one…” she said weakly, and then cleared her throat trying for a more confident tone. “…not yet. Not until the safety of our officers can be assured…” she said.

The familiar hum and light from a successful transport that filled Dael’s ears had quickly been replaced by screaming. At first he was worried that something had interfered with the transport and there had been some sort of incident. Before he managed to pull his tricorder from the toolkit in his hands though, the pain hit his head like a brick to the head. The mental wave of terror and pain swept across his Betazoid mindscape, causing him to look up and see that it wasn’t the transport after all. Or at least, not what the transport had done to the colonists, but what else it had brought with them.
“Rings of Betazed…” he muttered and quickly started out of his shock. The Chief of Security and his team focusing on what was in front of them helped blot out the chaos swarming his mind by focusing on them. That’s what he had to do now, focus. He walked over to the console near the Cargo Bay door and signaled for his techs to step back. He turned to Rodier.
“When your team is ready, I’ll drop the field.”

In the time it took the COS to ask permission to engage the threat, one of the feeble colonists died under a creature’s attack. Another pool of blood began to form under their cooling body. A fresh wave of screams came from the group of colonists. The one being dragged away was able to land a solid kick against her abductor’s head though and got free. She scrambled on hands and knees back towards the safety of the group but her assailant roared in rage after recovering from the blow and moved to catch her.

=/\= Engage. =/\=

=^= Computer, can we isolate the colonists bio signature from the other creatures and separate them by erecting a containment field around either bio signature?=^= she asked wildly

Lt O’Connell
CMO

=/\= Bridge to O’Connell. We are attempting to get a lock on the colonists’ life signs to prepare them to transport directly to Sickbay. We will transport you and the other medical providers at the same time. =/\=
