Akem quietly nodded understanding and concerned for her. He moved closer to her and put a hand gently on her cheek. It was the closest contact he had with her since the station incident. He allowed his touch to permeate her mind with his presence. If he could help heal her, he would.

Kedvis watched as the man made contact with Cosgrove and his eyes widened as he watched the readings on the monitor shift. The surgical team had made notes of an energy field the woman emanated but hadn’t seen any sign of it. But here, now, it returned the moment Akem touched her. Interesting.

Lai was there, hovering under the surface. Like holding your breath and floating just under water, gazing up and feeling the sun upon your face. Deep in her unconsciousness, she touched the familiar feeling from a being she knew better than anyone. A touch, a caress. She was here. Patience…

Akem softly smiled. I know…I’ll be here.

Kristina couldn’t help but hurry, but she tried to refrain from running. “Room 317. 313, 315. here it is!”

Michael Conrad moved as fast as her, just to keep up with her. This was after all, or at least the presumed it was, her sister. The intensity of it made sense.

A woman in the hospital’s uniform, mousey brown hair and the rest of her just as forgettable moved quickly out of the way of the steamroller that was the small group The group wouldn’t even remember passing by her. She was stocking the nurses stations outside each of the ICU rooms on the floor. She was neat and efficient and didn’t seem to linger, but then did anyone really notice her? No one seemed to other than the nurse a few rooms down that wanted her station stocked first. It was so very interesting what one could find out by just listening while they did their job.

ICU NA

She stood at the entrance where a doctor stood near the bed and there was Akem, much like she remembered him. “Akem?” Kristina said, stepping in. Her eyes drifted to the figure in the bed and sure it enough it looked exactly like her sister, but without the tattoos. Halai had had them since before she attended Starfleet Academy. It was strange to see her without them. She hadn’t even asked about the back one yet. “I’m having a hard time understanding this. How are you both here? What did she do to her tattoos? They said she had been shot?!”

Conrad and Kanok appeared right behind her. As soon as the questions flew, Conrad’s eyes shot up. He wasn’t sure shooting from the hip was going to be wise.

The doctor smiled reassuringly. “The surgical team removed the projectile and repaired the damage. We’ll know more about Miss Cosgrove’s condition when she wakes up, but it might be a little bit before the sedatives wear off.”

~Kristina et al.

Akem turned to face everyone, his hand now having moved to Lai’s own hand. Did they Miss Cosgrove? Did they think she was someone else? And he had little in the form of answers for the slew of questions that were hurtled his way. They knew his name, but not hers?

Akem nodded to the doctors. “Thank you for your assistance. I’ll just stay here with her until she wakes.”

Doctor Kedvis nodded and stepped back, but stayed in the room.

He then turned to Kristina and then recognized Conrad and Kanok. He was mildly on edge, but they did end up bringing Lai to these facilities to be healed. They had at least proven themselves to be helpful in that regard. “And what can I do for you three?”

-Akem

Kristina herself was now on edge and folded her arms over her chest as she stepped closer. Looking over at the woman in the bed, a strange feeling settled into the pit of her stomach. “You can answer my questions. That is supposedly my half-sister, but I don’t think it is. But maybe I’m missing something and you can help. Just tell me something… does she”-she gestured with her head towards Lai-“have a large tattoo on her back?” A part of her already knew the answer but she also didn’t know what to do when he answered.

~Kristina Cosgrove

Akem shook his head. “No she does not. Whoever this…Halai Cosgrove…is…she is not her.” He turned to the doctor. “Whatever instruments you used to detect her identity are clearly wrong. Her name is Lai Kitrian.”

Conrad happened to glance at Kristina in disbelief. In a low voice, he said to her, “But she still got a transfusion of what was left over for Halai? Something isn’t adding up.”
