As Kadance looked around sickbay a tall athletic looking woman walked up to her smiling. Her dark green mottled face and yellow eyes framed by her long black hair, which cascaded down form the soft ridges of her forehead. She loomed Kadance up and own and then turned to an nurse working at a station. “Sarah I think the samples in lab three should be ready for collection now. Could you grab them while I help our new councillor” she asked her tone kind wan warm. It wouldn’t take much for Kadance to realise that KT was giving them the room.

“Sure.” the nurse said before she left.

“Right. Welcome to the Memorial. I’m KT-QT the chief medical officer I take it you’re here for you evaluation.” she said her tone still kind and warm.

Lieut KT-QT (CMO)

The smooth dismissal of the nurse wasn’t lost on Kady. “Yes, ma’am. Kadance Argona. The new Counselor.” Her smile was bright in return. “I hope this isn’t an inconvenient time.” She stepped more fully into the room.

KT shook her head “Not at all” she said kindly “Please take a seat over on that bed and we’ll get things started” she added indicating to a vacant bed. As Kady got herself comfortable KT grabbed herself a tri-corder and walked over to her.

“Have you received nay injuries or been given any new mediation since your last evaluation?” she asked, of course KT knew the answer but it was still something she had to ask.

Lieut KT-QT (CMO)

Kady slid onto the given bed and shook her head. “No, I’ve cut back on the pain injections as well. Down to about once a week if I push and overdue it. Should be off them completely in next week or so.” She shifted uncomfortably and smiled. This was where things went one of two ways. Either the Doc understood her other job and questioned her to learn about it and was all right… or they hated Ops and this is where she got a tongue lashing and knew that she’d be given hell every time she came in from now on.

KT nodded “Yes I imagine running black ops missions would be straining” She said simply. KT did not judge she only analysed, and as a result she could tell Kady was bracing for something.

“Relax. Every faction has black ops, even my people do. They do a vital job. It’s just funny that the federation preaches peace and love, then has a whole division dedicated to killing, maiming, removing and sabotaging of various things” She said simply

“I’ll be honest with you I don’t really care. The only time I’ll care is if you endanger my people or the people on this ship.” KT said after a short pause, before continuing her scans.

“So do you want to tell me how you got those bruises?” she asked.

Lieut KT-QT (CMO)

Kady smiled and nodded. “I admit, I never in a million galaxies would have said it. But I think a doc who cares more for her shipmates than my ‘clandestine activities’. My last … encounter fought back more than I anticipated.” She arched to the left and right, wincing a bit more on her left side crunch. A hand moving to rub her bottom two left ribs. “He has… had… really strong right handed grip.” The edge in her voice, if KT listened, would hint at the hate in herself for her lack of preparedness.

KT nodded and grabbed her equipment. The equipment was not federation standard it was from her home world. “My People developed technology that the federation could only dream of. This should fix those ribs with no need for follow up” She said as she turned on one of the items, it was long a slender with a black and silver Finnish. Hovering it over Kady’s ribs they would begin to heal.

“It is often those we assume to be the least dangerous, either because the seem to be neutralised or are the least likely. Become the ones that cause the most damage.” she said simply as he worked, however there was a hint of knowing in her voice. Like she had experienced something similar in her lifetime, but then again in 300 years I suppose a lot of things would happen.

Lieut KT-QT (CMO)

Kady smiled knowingly, her arm moving out of the way now and then as the Lieutenant healed her ribs. “And I’m betting neither of us miscalculate that again. I mean, I won’t.” She covered up the slip with a smile figuring the woman would know it wasn’t accidental. “I guess I got stationed on the right ship. Though I’m hoping, from here out, I learn about your technology through teaching and not show and tell.”

She laughed lightly trying not to move too much.

KT nodded and smiled “I am more than happy to teach as long as there are people willing to listen and learn.” she said as she worked “But isn’t there that old saying better now or never. So while I’m fixing this is there anything particular you want to know about my people. After all i find if you can distract someone they are far easier to deal with and they don’t necessarily think about what’s happening.” she added after a short pause.

Lieut KT-QT (CMO)

Kady smiled and moved as she was prompted and remained still when she needed. “Sadly, the ‘thinking’ isn’t even a part of it anymore. I have to trust my doctors or my own life isn’t worth a hill of beans. If you say move, I will, or stay, I will. And pain is also common enough that unless it is killing me, a wince is usually a sufficient enough sign for most medics.”

“And it takes even less for me to notice as I can process things most others cannot. So I can tell when people are pain even of they are the best at hiding it.” She said to reassure her patient.

Glancing at the woman a moment in curiosity, she finally spoke up. “Why Star Fleet and why medical?” It wasn’t, perhaps, the question the Doc expected. But then, Kady wasn’t the kind of woman most folks expected.

A small smiled danced across KT’s face “Joining star fleet was a tactical and diplomatic move. The federation wants an alliance with my people. After all just our existence makes every engineer ands science officer drool and every security officer and intelligence operative sweat. We also want tro0 explore more of the galaxy and having an ally straight away is always a good thing. So pour queen chose 12 of us to join str fleet and other aspects of the federation. We where to start form the bottom and work our way up. as we do so we send data back to our home world and form that our queen and her council decide whether or not to continue our alliance or dissolve it.” she said simply as he worked

“As for medical it seemed only natural, as during our rebellion against are organic masters I served as a front line medic. I patched up synthetic and organic, ally and enemy. I learnt a lot and when my queen asked me to join her mew plan I was honoured and agreed straight away finding medical to be a suitable fit. It also gives what ever ship I’m on an instant advantage as I can go places no organic can. I could beam down to an infected colony work for weeks, find the sure and return without suffering a single issue.” she added as she finished her work .

Lieut KT-QT (CMO)

Kady smiled. “I am glad you volunteered. We aren’t so different, you know. You can run into dangerous places, and not be physically affected, so you can help those who have been harmed. Like for the infection example you gave. And I… well… I run into dangerous situations, figuratively, to keep others from being harmed. The people you save with your medicinal and physiological abilities, are similar to those I save with my physical and intellectual abilities.” Laughing slightly, she shook her head. “It sounded better in my mind. Didn’t quite come out as eloquent as I hoped.”

She shifted slightly, testing the bruised area.

KT smiled “You still did a good job though. However you forgot to add that now you are our counsellor, you now have to help others on a psychological level as well. Which means we are both now in the profession of healing. Me physically you mentally.” she said kindly as she finished her work .

“That should fix that. However it will be sore for an hour but after that it should be all good.” she aid after a short pause.
