Cases weren’t extreme at times like this. Pareses squares, careless engineers, no great challenges. When the head of every biobed failed, and the ship went to emergency lights, the paradigm changed.-GM Fate
Natasha clicked on the small penlight again taking a second look at Ensign Bender’s tongue. To her knowledge, there was only one condition that caused this. “Okay so you have Lingua villosa nigra or Melanoglossia,” she announced taking a step back from the young man sitting on her biobed. Her face held a perplexed expression as if she was confused about what was happening.
“Is that bad doc,” Ensign Bender’s tone trembled slightly as his eyes held a wild look of worry.
“No it’s just commonly called Black Hairy tongue,” she gave him the common medical term as she pulled a PaDD from her coat pocket. Tapping a few buttons on her screen she researched a hunch.
“Can I spread it by kissing,” he reached over grabbing Nat’s arm in a panic, “and would if anyone comes in you can’t reveal I have it right?” The anxiety in the young Ensign’s voice concerned Nat making her raise an eyebrow and smirk.
“No, and I can fix it before you leave. Black Hairy Tongue is a condition with we see from several different etiologies. Yours is from a reaction to the antibiotic I gave you a few days ago. ” Pulling a hypo from a drawer she injected the man in the neck filling the room with a soft pneumatic pssssstttt. “Now just don’t go kissing anyone for the next few days and you should be fine,” she smiled at the young man who looking immensely relieved. It was then she noticed the lights flicker and then switch to emergency mode after a long pause. “You are fine to go,” she dismissed the young man and tapped her comm badge. =/\=Engineering we are…engineering....=/\= she repeated noting that the communications systems seemed to be down.
“Kavonne, keep an eye on things here. Comm systems are down and I am going to head to engineering to see if they can get someone up here,” Natasha told the duty nurse as she walked towards the door of sickbay.

Sha was on the other side of the door as the Doc headed out. She jumped slightly at the surprise of another person so close to the door. “Oh, sorry, Doc,” the half Klingon apologized as she stepped aside. “Was just coming to see you for my check in. Should I come back later?”
While she was in the security uniform and rank pips, if Knight was aware of her return, she’d know of the demotion in station from Security Chief to Security Officer that the woman had acquired on her return from whatever mission she had been on.

“Yeah we are,” Nat said looking up from her PaDD as the woman addressed her., “oh my god when did you get back?” Instead of remembering anything about Klingon customs, Natasha immediately hugged the woman trying to enter Sickbay. Rah-Triton had been gone a while but not long enough to ever be forgotten.
“Barlow,” Natasha yelled out to the ensign filling the supply station. “Do me a favor and go let engineering know we are having technical issues,” she ordered. The Starfleet Corman immediately left to follow Natasha’s orders as Nat led the ex security chief to a bed.
“Seeing you is a huge relief in more ways than one,” she confessed to the woman. “We were fine a few minutes ago before we started having power and comm trouble. If you are here checking in though that means it can’t be anything serious,” Knight pulled out her tricorder and began to scan her. While she would have to wait to upload the information from the PaDD to the computer Natasha could at least do this end of the paperwork
