Baxton meanwhile laid there with the deep gash of tiger claws across his chest. The deep furrows cutting deep and obviously deeply wounding the poor NE security guard. Flecks of blood were already seeping through the dressing pads Faith had applied as were some from the NE’s mouth. Gurgling in pain he said. “..I’m ....I’m too pretty to....too die!” He wheezed barely clinging to life.
“That’s just the medication kicking in, making you believe that… Oh! But I haven’t given you anything yet! …Listen, hang on and you’ll be fine once we get you to Sickbay. Dr. Grunch is on his way right now,” replied Faith.
It was at that moment that the Grumpy Tellarite walked into the room to see the scene before him his eyes went wide “What in the name of the ancients!?!?” he shouted moving over and opening up his medkit he grabbed the Medical tricorder taking a quick scan to find out if one the NE was safe to move two What inside the ensign was most damaged and what he needed to do to save the Ensigns life and three how much of a blood coagulant drug to inject to temporarily stop the bleeding
NE Baxton showed he had a ruptured left lung, and deep gouged cuts along his chest that had just missed his heart! He possibly could be moved on a stretcher but they would have to act fast either way, as surgery was what the NE needed ASAP to save his life.
“Hi, I’m Faith Hopkins, Captain’s Yeoman, but I’m trained and work as an auxiliary nurse during emergency situations. You must be the new Doctor, Grunch. Nice to meet you!” Faith said quickly.
“I thought Ginger was the Captain’s HOUSE CAT what happened!?!” he growled as he set to work trying to save the NE’s life
“He is… he was… it’s this current mission. This stone that they are all looking for. It warps reality, and it makes strange thinks happen if you think about them. Someone must have imagined Ginger getting larger and then it happened for real. It’s a pity we can’t all just imagine NE Baxton getting well again!” replied Faith.
Another gurgle of pain echoed Baxton’s state as the two talked.
“We have to get him into Surgery” he growled ignoring the Yeoman’s comments Waving to the two NE’s that had followed him thank the Spirits he did not send them back to sickbay earlier he injected a various medley of Pain medication and whatever else was needed to at least stabilize Baxton while his two NE’s Carefully started moving him onto the stretcher once they were ready Grunch spoke again “Lets get him going we need to get him into surgery right away” he growled turning to leave as well “If your not busy Yeoman I could use an extra pair of hands in sickbay” he added
“Anything I can do to help,” replied Faith following Grunch. She thought he was sceptical of her explanation for the growth in size, but then she would have been too until recently.
Once back in Sickbay the NE’s moved Baxton to the Surgical bay while Grunch went to scrub up he had to be quick to save the young man he still did not believe that a House Cat could be changed by some tiny little pebble but even still he had to focus “Yeoman you scrubbed up and ready to assist?” he growled as he headed for the surgical bay he knew the first thing to do was to stop the bleeding.
“Yes, Doctor,” Faith replied.
“Administer 20 CCs of Anesthizine” he ordered to one of the other two NEs he was calm and cool when it came to what he had to do He, of course, had seen this level of injury before and knew without a shadow of a doubt that he could save this young man
