NE Starling appeared at Knox’s side. He ran the tricorder over the boy’s leg. “If you’d be so kind Clarice.” He said handing the treatment of Jeane over to the female doctor, knowing this would likely make him more comfortable. She looked mildly surprised but took the hint and began examining the injury.

Theodore turned to the COS to listen.

Surda sighed and ran a hand down her face. “An anomaly is after the children on this ship. It apparently manifests as shadows, and can physically interact with us. Ensign Luna is injured, I wasn’t confident in the safety of transporting her.”

Surda set a hand on Gen’s shoulder carefully. “Can you sit with Cerenity for me? I’ll be right there, but I don’t want to leave her down there alone.” She wished she could go sit with the girl, but she had to do her duty first.

Gen nodded and moved to the other girl.

“Where was Jeane? I’ll send some of the RTF over.” She approached Jin’lor and Jeane slowly, taking measured steps to avoid startling either of them. She stopped within Jin’lor’s reach, offering a sort of silent comfort without crowding him.

Jin’Lor was thankful Surda kept her distance. After seeing the state his adopted son was in he was very much on edge and did not need a reason to grab for one of his knives. “I found him in the hallway outside our quarters, but he mentioned the shadow was in his room.” He explained and let Jeane grab onto his arm. The teen clung to him tightly as if holding onto the geneticist for dear life.

NE Starling held up a hypospray. “Can I give you something to help the pain? “ she asked kindly.

Ensign Jin’Lor Venneroe
OOC: Cross-posting:
The Breen tapped at their wrist computer. In an instant, the RTF COmmander’s voice echoed through the Leviathan. =/\= All hands, this is RTF Command. All minors and their guardians are to report to Sickbay immediately. This is not a drill. All children and families report to sickbay immediately. This is an order. Vonn out. =/\= Another tap and Vonn said =/\= RTF to Sickbay. When the last child is within your facility, activate level five contagion protocols and ensure all lights are on at full power. =/\=

Theodore hit his badge. =^= Understood. Protocol standing by. =^= he said as the medical staff all moved to work.

Casela appeared in a swirl of glittery transporter light and turned directly to Surda. She moved closer, staying out of Jin’Lor’s personal space, and signed quickly to Surda, “The creature is visible in gamma and x-ray frequencies. Gelatinous form. Capable of moving through solid matter. We need to keep the lights to full brightness so we can track it. Also if we can get ahold of the vision specs that RTF uses we can track it more easily.” She paused, “Also, this thing is telepathic, it’s after the children and will attack their parents if needs be.” She turned to the nearest doctor/nurse/medic and spoke, “The lights are going to get bright the children might benefit from some sunglasses.”

NE GOodguy nodded once then moved to the replicator. He was back with some blue-tinted glasses within a few moments which he began handing out. Knox was talking to some other staff. A second later and it appeared that a small nova had gone off. Sickbay lit up in such a way that the Whos down in Whoville would be jealous of such light display and JJ Abrams would need to add at least a thousand more lights to his next bridge scene just to compare.

Cerenity whimpered covering her eyes. Even with the provided glasses, it was still too bright for her. One of those unusual bird traits likely.

Casela waved NE Goodguy back over. “Can we get some darker glasses for Cerenity? These don’t seem to be strong enough.”

She moved directly to Gen and hugged her, then spotting Cerenity she bent down to get eye level with her. “Cerenity, this is not your fault, and Ms Surda told me your mom is hurt. We’re going to help her, but I need you to come out from under the table okay?” She held out her hand for her. She looked around. Ryder wasn’t there yet. Where was he? Or did he think the order for parents to report didn’t apply to him?
Lt Synthi-er, CNS

Gen returned the hug but stood back watching the goings-on. As She was offered the glasses she scowled and shook her head. “No.” Was all she said. NE Goodguy hesitated but moved swiftly in when the girl’s eyes began to glow again.

” it’s going to get my dad like it got my mother. And it is my fault it followed me from the Viking. I -I did not know it had followed me until a week ago it never attacked like this” she whimpered. She did not take Calestes hand knowing better too. Gen was there and she was already upset. Cerenity crooked out from under the biobed and backed away from Casela. The last thing Cerenity wanted was for Gen to feel she was trying to steal her mother. ” Go take care of Gen she needs you,” Cerenity said crossing her arms as turning her back to Casela. ” I’m a big girl and can take care of myself,” she said.
Cerenity

Casela sat down on the floor near Cerenity. While Cerenity talked Casela noticed her glancing at Gen and understood the girl’s hesitation. Gen I know this is stressful but we need to help her. Come here and sit with us, please. “I am right here with you and Gen. Gen is your friend, right? We are going to help you. I know you are a big girl Cerenity so I need you to come over here and talk to me. You are the only one who knows anything about these creatures. And we need you to tell us. You’ve met Chief Vonn, right? We’ll he’s hunting this thing down so it won’t hurt anyone else. I need you to tell me everything you know so that Miss Surda and I can tell him.” She didn’t ask, big girls didn’t need to be asked to do the right thing.
Lt Synthi-er, CNS

Gen did not reply to Casela. Her mind it appeared had shut off as if it were trying not to allow anything to distract her. She did however come over and wait with them a moment.

Casela reached over and took Gen’s hand and reached out to her telepathically but careful not to startle her or disrupt her concentration. It’s not the same, Gen. This isn’t what took your family and the Phantom. It’s different. Cerenity is describing it as best she can. But I’ve seen what attacked you, in your memories. This is not the same. I promise, and we are safe in here. I will keep you safe, I promise.

” they did not hunt like this they usually waited in the darkest places of the ship in Jeff’s tubs anywhere where the power is turned of. They usually just take people not leave them hurt. It’s tormented me ever since I was two in my dreams appearing in my room but it never seemed to be able to actually do anything to me.” she said quietly. She did not sit down or look at Casela she just stared at the wall for a bit.

” I should go help Vonn,” She said her hands clenching into a fist. ” its my fault it’s here and now it’s hurt people I care about,” she said.
Cerenity

Casela shook her head, “I’m afraid that is not possible Cerenity. First and most importantly Chief Vonn has ordered us all to stay here. Being a big girl means you follow orders. But what I can do,” She glanced at Surda. Cerenity liked her a lot better. She thought at Surda,She’s an escape artist we need to keep an eye on her, but she needs to feel she’s helping. We might want to get sickbay locked down. “Is open a commlink to Chief Vonn for you, and you can tell him everything you know. I know it’s hard to follow orders to stay and not get involved, but sometimes it’s the best decision. And second, you’re mommy is going to be here soon. They are working on making her safe and getting her here for Dr. Knox to help. When she wakes up she is going to need you. If you are not here, she’ll run out of sickbay before she’s well enough and maybe get hurt worse.” She turned to Surda again, “Lt do you think you could help, Cerenity get in touch with Chief Vonn so she can share her knowledge with him?” It might be from a child’s perspective but right now Cerenity was the resident expert on these things.
Lt Synthi-er, CNS

Cerenity blinked and turned her head sideways
as if thinking. * ” she is aware I’m pushing her away so Gen won’t be upset she should be more focused on Gen I’m fine by myself, “* Cerenity thought a little frustrated that Calista was not getting the message.

Cerenity took a deep breath. ” How can he find something he can’t see it will probably go back into hiding to it likes the Jefferys tubes,” she said quietly.
Cerenity

Gen looked directly at Cerenity then and said, very clearly telepathically so both Cerenity and Casela would hear her. * I am not upset. I’m fine. My Mom will help keep you safe till your mom is here. Stay here. I don’t want to have to come find you.* she gave a small smile at her friend.

Cerenity blinked not at all bother or surprised by Gen’s communication. * If I were to go please don’t follow me the shadows are dangerous* She thought quietly but did not say it out loud.
Instead she hugged Gen and burst into tears. ” I’m sorry please don’t look at my mind you don’t want to know what these things look like. Cerenity said.

Knox meanwhile had apparently not been idle while this was going on. As everyone had now arrived more or less in sickbay He appeared again by Surda. “I think it best we get a lock on the Ensign and beam her in before the final lockdown protocol is engaged. It is better to move her than leave her without medical attention.”

Dr Knox and Gen

Surda nodded and tapped her combadge. =/\=Lt. Surda to the transporter room, beam Ensign Luna to Sickbay immediately.=/\= She glanced to Jin’Lor and Jeane again, but turned and knelt next to Casela. “Cerenity, there are members of the RTF that know the Jeffries tubes like the backs of their hands. Would you like me to ask Chief Vonn for a status update?”
-Surda, CoS

Ensign Luna would appear moments later on an empty biobed. Cerenity heard the transporter and looked up. ” Mommy!” She ran to her mother who was awake now but not very responsive. ” Mommy I’m sorry pleases don’t be mad I did not tell you they had followed me,” cerenity said. ” wha…” Luna tried to talk and move but found it hard if not impossible. ” I love you Mommy please don’t leave me like daddy did” she sId then turned back to Sandra her mind made up. ” Where is Mr. Vonn I want to help him,” cerenity said.
Ensign Luna

OOC: since there’s so much crazy in your sickbay I’ll let you decide the exact nature of Luna’s injury. I will say she was crushed like a giant snake got ahold of her. Have fun pleases don’t kill Ensign Luna.

Jeane tested his leg the moment it was fixed and healed before he slipped off the bed and went to stand with Cerenity and Gen. He felt a great amount of sympathy for the young winged girl because of what was happening to Luna.

It took every bit of willpower for Jin’Lor to keep any outburst contained as he looked to Luna with obvious concern in his eyes. The moment she arrived he knew this shadow of an anomaly had done it, but Cerenity’s outburst and tears were enough evidence of that as well. “Luna…” He murmured, wishing so badly to offer her a comforting hand, but was afraid to do any more damage to her.

So, the geneticist kept close, but not enough to be in the way of the one tending to the winged woman. He silently prayed she would be able to get through this fine.

Casela gazed about the room, tension was high, but no one seemed to be on the verge of doing something crazy. Her eyes landed on Fenrir. “Fenrir, come here.” The AARM moved through the crowd and came to sit by her, Gen, and Cerenity. “Begin running visual sweeps of the room, focusing particularly on the gamma and x-ray spectrums.
Look for gelatinous forms that can move through solid matter. Contain immediately. Do not wait for orders or confirmation, contain immediately.” She turned to Cerenity, “Cerenity if you see one of these creatures, will you tell me or Fenrir or Surda? Fenrir can trap it if you tell him where it is.” She turned back to Fenrir, “If Cerenity points out one you are to respond with similar protocol. Do you understand?” There was a mechanical hiss as Fenrir’s optical sensors changed to the necessary scanners and then he moved off scanning the entirety of sickbay.

Surda sat down on the ground, Cerenity on one side, and silently invited Jeane to join them. “We can’t go help Mr. Vonn, but we can check in with him, alright?” She detached her combadge and held it out so all the kids would be able to hear. =/\= Lt. Surda to Chief Warrant Officer Vonn. What’s the situation out there?=/\= She was hesitant to offer Cerenity’s help before she knew the situation, but she had a feeling it would be necessary.
