Willow’s face went slack for a split second as she took in what the woman was saying. It was utterly perposterous. Quickly she tried to remember the last thing she clearly remembered doing. She was in her office…dismantelling the blasted squeaky chair. Then…the new CE? He had come in…The queen of hearts!? It explained the dress at least…she tried to remember how the Queen of hearts acted. Looking down at the croquet mallet at her feet gave her a momentary idea. Picking it up drew herself up to her full height. ”Uhh…yes…well…whos for a spot of croquet? Would you care to play my dear?” she asked Alexis as if nothing had happened before hand.
The NE’s who hadn’t been close enough to the most to be reverted seemed confused and unsure if they should seize the offending ”Huntress” or not. They stepped closer to both women.
Willow scowled darkly. ”Well? What are you waiting for!!” she demanded ”SET UP THE GAME!” she bellowed. They scattered.
”How long before the compound is working and do you have enough for all of them?” the captakn whispered under her breath to the doctor.

Confused and wearing a corsetAlexis looked at her canister. “Hopefully enough that those treated out number those who are infected.” =^=Bonner to sickbay. How long until the compound is in the ventilation system?=^= “I know it’s unbelievable captain. If we could get to a terminal for you to pull up the security feed you could watch it. I only arrived on Starbase a few hours ago.” Alexis sprayed another infected crewman as he walked by to set up the game. “I hope they have it ready soon. The XO took some to the science labs, and another team took some to crew quarters, and then an Engineering officer took some to try and clear out the largest contaminated area in the duct work so we can pump it through. Cmdr. Walker is in sickbay and hopefully recovering already.” Alexis trying to recall all the information. Unfortunately she didn’t get a lot of names while she was in sickbay. There hadn’t been time.
Lt. Bonner, AMOWatching the Queen get gassed was something Zoi had not expected. Her grin left her face and she slid herself off the bannister to stand on the upper deck of the Promenade. Whatever was in that can did not seem like fun. So she slipped away in the hullabaloo and decided to go find some more fun. Dira had said she would meet Zoi in Zoi’s quarters. Why not go there and await the luscious XO?

=/\= For the whole station? Engineering is telling us it could be as much as two hours to recirculate the whole ship but we are targeting specific areas first. We should have all the compound we need in about half an hour. So two to three hours before the station is purged.=/\=

Willow shook her head as she surveyed the assembled NEs. “Well Doctor, this doesn’t look like a situation we want to be stuck in for the next hour…I’m not sure how long a good game of croquet would take…should we beat a retreat and regroup?” She whispered to Alexsis

Lace covered COAlexis nodded and whispered, “They are likely to follow you. I suggest claiming you can now see my quarry and want to go hunt with me and order them to play.” Alexis then explains to the captain how she claimed Alexis was a huntress and those events. “We don’t want to break that illusion and cause panic or a riot.”
Lt. Bonner, AMOWillow closed her eyes and willed the ground to open and swallow her. However she cleared her throat. “Gentle…cards.” She began loudly and held a hand up in what she hoped seemed like a regal gesture. “There is ahhadventure! Yes adventure to behold. I shall not tarry here and play croquet while the Huntress’ quarry can still be caught. I shall journey with her to experience this once in a life time catch myself!”
Two NEs hurriedly began to pack things as if this meant they would come too. “Right away my queen.” One called. Causing Willow to hold up her hand in a stop gesture.
“NO!” She said then checked herself. “No..I mean, no only the huntress and myself can see such a beast. Any more would....spoil....they adventure. No, stay my Uh…loyal servants?” She glanced at Alexis as if asking her if this was right before she continued. “You shall stay and you shall not accompany me. Instead..ah you will build for me…a master croquet....green. With roses and flowers and grass…to play on. And I shall expect it ready when I return.”
As the NEs began to talk about how they would go about such an endeavour Willow began to walk confidently and quickly away. “Infirmary?” she asked Alexsis when they were out of ear shot of the assembly. ”And for the love of the prophets…i need to get out of this monstrsity…” she indicates the opulent dress.

Playing along, “This way my queen. Before the monster gets away.” Alexis nodded and headed off down the corridor. Once off the main promenade she stopped at an equipment locker and got the captain a rebreather. “No need to risk you inhaling that stuff again. As soon as we get to the med bay, we’ll go through decontamination and you can get a fresh uniform Captain.”
OOC: Should we continue this back in the med bay?
