“Before you begin,” Dante said to Sheleah, holding up a hand for Natasha to wait a moment before using the hypo, “Lets be clear that at this point I would prefer you simply make sure this Laju is in a safe enough mindset not to hurt herself or anyone else, and capable of talking coherently. Once we find out what is going on and if you find her capable of talking to others, I intend to take her to the Chief of Security to resolve the remaining issues. I don’t believe this is the time for a full fledged session, I think that would be better served in your office once she can compose herself a little more as you say, yes? That being said, we can put up the privacy shield now so that we can see in but she cannot see us when she wakes. We still need to be sure that you will be safe should anything unexpected happen.”

Sheleah nodded and wondered if this was the time to explain that she was usually armed when outside her own quarters.

“Understood Captain. I know the protocols.”

“This should counteract the sedative almost immediately. I also put in dose of Sobe up,” Natasha used the slang term for the medicinal drug used to flush a patient’s system of all narcotics, pharmaceuticals, and alcohol. “Her tox screen came back only positive for an anti-depressant so aside from the WTF just happened to me syndrome of knocking someone out, she will be fine. There shouldn’t be any side effects from clearing you body of anti-depressants.” Depressing the hypo into Laju’s neck, a soft hissing sound filled the space as Natasha took a step back and waited like the rest for the woman to come around.

Ally had moved off to the corner to activate the isolation field if the visitor suddenly became aggressive or combative. With Rico, the counselor, the Captain, and the medical staff ready, it would not be another situation like before with unknown variables. Natasha might not be able to hit the broad side of a barn with a phaser but if hypoing someone into unconsciousness was a security maneuver, she would rank as an expert.

Sheleah slipped into position and waited for the woman to wake up.

The world around Eghimea flash back into being once more. Her eyes went wide as her mouth opened taking in as much air as her lungs could hold. There was a ringing in her ears, but it seemed almost like a distant memory. Her nose told her that the air around her was clean, too clean. She didn’t hear anything, but she felt something on her back. The slight vibrations that were a telltale sign that she was aboard a ship or station.

She started to move her hands then paused as she looked down at her wrists. ‘Where are the chains,’ she wondered as her eyes shifted slowly.

‘I asked you why you stopped Lieutenant,’ the male voice to her left spoke.

Eghimea turned and glanced in the direction of the sound. Then as if seeing a ghost, she jerked back slightly as she closed her eyes shaking off the random memory that had flooded her senses. Slowly moving her hands to her face, she placed her palms up against her closed eyes. She rubbed them as if forcing the memory from her sight.

It was then in that moment that Eghimea realized she wasn’t alone. Her head turned to the right, and she saw an alien woman with blond hair standing between the medical bed she was laying on and the isolation field that had been erected around her bed.

Her eyes moved about the area searching for the other woman. Her head still hurt, but she knew there had been another woman here. ‘What was her name,’ Eghimea tried to remember. Then the introduction replayed in her mind perfectly.

‘Hello, I am Doctor Knight,’ the woman with green eyes had said. She had spoken with a light and kind tone.

Eghimea turned her head slightly to the woman next to her, as she wondered for a heartbeat if that memory had been real. She felt different, her mind no longer foggy. Like a tide coming in, memories washed up against her consciousness and threaten to drown her. There were so many memories, she fought to keep them at bay.

Her eyes turned back to the alien with blond hair, ‘what did they do to me,’ she wondered. Then it hit her like a gravity wake slamming the side of a ship. She could remember the journey aboard the shuttle. The two laughing women sitting across from her. The photos they shared and stories about their husbands. She remembered the landing bay with the large letters, ‘USS Saracen’.

She moved slightly up, then her mind suddenly remembered the isolation field around her. She swallowed hard as she resisted the fear that was slowly rising within her. A soft beeping sound from her wrist mounted device filled the air between them. Eghimea cursed the device as its beeping betrayed her increasing heart rate.

“Am I,” she said in a soft, almost trying to will her voice not to reveal her confusion or fear. Even she didn’t believe herself as she spoke, “aboard the Saracen?”

Sheleah had watched her movements patiently and quietly until the woman spoke.

“Yes, you are in the Saracen’s sickbay. My name is Counselor Ruby but feel free to call me Sheleah. I’d just like to talk with you for a bit. It seems you’ve had the whole medical staff concerned. Can we start with your name and how you’re feeling?”

Sheleah spoke in a light friendly voice that some had called calm and engaging.
