"Very well. I will leave you to your work Doctor. We are all lucky to have you on the station while we do".
He nodded and left.
"I do not want any particular thing. But you seem to understand what I mean, gladly. They are not fully destroyed and so as you say we will probally see them again. Not only does it obligate us to seal an alliance with you, it obligates you to provide aid if they do return, and as you said you would".
He then paused and looked around at the injured people of Andros.
"I do not say it as propaganda against an alliance, but to see this alliance continue, actually, to see it when it even began, was of greater harm to us than to you. Therefore, off the record, I ask you not to ask much of starfleet. We have gained your enemies and that is such a loss I cannot put into words. The alliance can mend that in time, but I feel it is my responsibility to point that out now, before we continue".
"I will see what I can do. I don't have time to do a great job"
*Works for 2 hours and returns to the infirmary*
"I have cleared it up Doctor. It will need to wait before you do anymore work in it".
*leaves*
*enters*
Ahh Doctor I guess you must be ready for my sugery
*passes over Padd*
this is the Medical file for this surgery

----------End Of Information----------------
Well Doctor, Iam a procrasanator so you can do you will to repair it
"Doctor... I am glad to see you outside the infirmary..." He then turned back to his men, "Fall back, lay down surpresive fire, move back to security junctures, then activate emergincy force field... MOVE MOVE MOVE." At Richerd's orders his men fired at the walking dead while moving back.
Richerd smiled at the officer, "Sorry Doctor, but must be moving quickly." With that said, he picks the doctor and carries him firemen style to the junctures that he had told his men, a moment after the last man past an invisable line, a force field shot up, another one already going up at the other end of the hallway.
=A= Richerd to all hands, I want a controled evacuation of this deck, I repeat, evac this deck.=A= Richerd was already getting antsy, he was having a bad feeling.
Richerd then turns to the Doctor, "Okay doc, what happened back their? You said the dead was walking, yet last I heard, all the men that were infected were going to be getting better and tomorrow they would be back on duty." Richerd was not too pleased at the moment.
"Don't worry doctor... I am here to protect you... just take it easy.... we'll get your infirmary back in one piece, and find a way of dispatching this... creatures.... I hate killing new races.... but they have taken over the bodies, and maybe the mind of our own men, and that is not a forgivable crime..." He turned his head around and shook his head.
At this time an Ensign came up to Richerd and reported, not saluting due to hostalls in the area, "The entire deck is empty except for ourselves and some other security teams... we are ready to seal off this deck and open one of the cargo bays as an emergincy Sickbay till this is all over."
"Thank you sir, We'll be right on out, come along doctor." With that Richerd walked out of the corridor and deck leaving behind those monsters that were continually pounding upon the force field. Soon the deck was sealed and all but emergancy lighting were shut down. Under security protocal.
** Garhart walks into sickbay. The computer detecting that no Doctor is on call activates the Emergency Medical Program **
EMH: Please state the nature of the Medical Need.
Garhart: Just making sure that you are operational doc. We have not received any permenant medical staff so we need you. Thank you for your time.
** Garhart walks out and the EMH turns off**
=A= Garhart to Infirmary =A=
Doctor, when Andros regains consousness, alert me imediatly.
I would like our alliance to continue forward. The Chronastine fleet was just a scout group, Larger then we first expected. You see a Normal Size scouting party is around 100 ships, they had 5x that many. Same Technology as us, but they are the exact opposite of us. They are ruthless in getting what they want, if they want a planet they will slaughter everyone on the planet to gain control of it, they dont care if your a medic, or a general, or even a child, they will kill everyone on the planet. That was the fate I was saving you from.
My enemy will continue to try to invade this part of the galaxy, but they are crippled now, I only slowed there incursion into this sector, I didnt stop them. Only slowed them, at the cost of crippling my fleet. That was how far my knights and I would go to protect your station, and the innocents in this sector of space.
My enemies, are ruthless, There methods are without honor, dignity, or respect for life. They are the exact oposite of us. The Exact opposite of us knights. They are the Dark ones to us now. They Succumbed to the passion that drives them.
There technology is right up there with ours perhaps there more advanced, but they didnt expect the new fighters that we use, they never expected Our reinforcements. They had no escape from the battle. At the cost of over 5,000 Knights in there fighters they held the Chronastine Fighters off. The Debris should still be there unless my knights searched for survivors, in which case there would be nothing left for you to get.
I fear that An alliance with your federation or this station will be the best for all of you. Should they try another Feeble attempt to invade your sectors of the galaxy I will beable to be there to stop them or at the very least cripple them.
What is it you want from us now Mr Hobson ?
Richerd comes into the sick bay and looks around, "I am here to assist in the Gel Pack problems where I can, so, what do you need me to do? Replicate new Gel Packs?" He asked as he looked around the infirmary, feeling nervous, he didn't like infirmaries that much, and tried to avoid them when he could.
"Ah, yes, Come sit down. *takes a tri Corder, and moves it up and down. Updating Tom's Medical records*. Tom, Have you been feeling alright ?, your scans tell me that your body temperature has shifted. Your stress level has gone up too!?."
"I dont know how the gel packs got infected. Maybe some unknown Agent got injected into it, or some engineer who wasnt paying attention injected something into the gel packs. The Infect crew are recoverying well. The food they ate is passing threw there systems quite rapidly in some."
OOC**Thought this would stay "The ghost in the Machine" on ops board but okie.
IC**
*Valen was sitting near the door when he stood up and grabbed Richerds collar*
"I can see there faces, oh there faces, there dead, *sobs* there all dead, I can see there faces in my dreams, oh yes yes yes, even when im awake *sobs*
I CAN SEE THEM EVEN NOW!!!!, RUN FOR YOUR LIVES OR THEY WILL GET US!!!!."
*Just then the sealed medical doors burst open and the Walking dead that Valen described started to attack the security officers, and Valen hid behind Richerd*
Richerd and all his team are now located in the turbo lift and were on the way to the sealed off section of the Infirmary.
"So, Doctor, where do we aim our weapons? I don't really want to make a mistake and make them all imune to his process."
just to let you know i will be holding regular evac and lockdown drills the medical cheif will be notifyed one day prior to make the proper arraingments for the patiants!!!
The doors slid open as Hobson walked in.
"What is thier condition?".
Hobson re-entered the infirmary and noticed Andros was awake.
"I see you are recovering. I was hoping to discuss what might happen now with alliances. With such a loss in that combat, do your people wish to continue slowly or decently fast paced? Or not at all, though I think there is call for alliance now more than ever. I did not know if your enemy was totally destroyed, or if there are still roots in the ground for it to grow. If there are any traces this station might continue to be at risk. Indeed, I would be most interested in learning more about your enemies".
"I think that will be possible. It has been good to discuss this. I will head back towards the Ops deck. I wish the best to you and your peoples continued recovery".
With the parting he exited the Infirmary.
*6 hours pass and the knights slip out of there trance like state*
"Your welcome, An admiral Hobson came in before, he asked if our alliance still held. I told him it did. But I sense that there was a new form of Respect in his voice and in his mind when he was talking to him asking about the Chronastines and asked if they would attack again. They probly will be not for quite some time sense there fleet was battered more so then mine. This is why we need Trilurium so much and why we insist on having such a huge fleet, because if they come back again, I need to make sure I have a huge enough fleet to repel such an incursion to insure my peoples safety and to insure yours as a Race and as a federation."
"But im feeling much better tho. My knights Combined with each other drawing from each other the strength to heal there minds. Soon you will know how to do this. Soon you will know why we need an armada. Yes I think you will Very soon."
*valen Shuffles in and tells Travis he can sit down now, then takes over the surgery that was going on*
*Enters*
"Doctor? I was sent here to repair some damage"
"Yes yes, Over here William, *then takes William over to the gelpack for the Medical bay*, right here. Nasty Virus infected the gelpacks and started to make people VERY! VERY! ill"
*before Hobson leaves*
"Might, I suggest some alone time?, or perhaps go on a Vacation. I hear Risa is pretty this time of year. But you need to seriously think about going on leave, and having some good quality silence, and alone time. But thats just my opinion." *then watches hobson leave*
"Ah, Ransom. *reads over the padd*, Oh, I see. Well, We can begin the surgery right away if you wish. Just give me a few hours to prep the surgical bay. Then we can get to work. Just tell me. If Im unable to fix this all the way. How do you feel about Cybernetics to take part in your body ?. Its a last resort I asure you. But I ask because sometimes shattered hips cant be repaired and if they are then the doctor who repaired them, was VERY! good at what he does."
Richerd with five security team reserves all are outside the medical bay doors, phaser rifles in the ready posistion and they all were looking nervous.
"Remember team... it seems that we have a small outbreak of a virus that has taken over crew member's bodies, I mean how else should a body that was comfirmed dead be walking." Richerd didn't like this... and all this had started soon after they had brought the Windsor into the bay.
"I tell you, it's that ghost ship they salvaged... it must be causing all this mayhem... it feels like a horror house gone upside down." his rank showed him as a lutenite.
"I assure you, we will get to the bottom of this and have it all shorted out, after all their is no such thing as ghosts, ghoals, nor monsters that are from those old horror movies." Richerd responded before tapping his Comm Badge.
=A=Doctor, this is William, head of security, we are here and ready to assist you. Please respond. =A= Richerd then awaited a response but keep his Phaser Rifle bared at the doors, just incase some of those, "Zombies" Decieded to try and break out of the infirmary.
"Ohhhh its possible to aim for the chest, but im not sure if it will work, I havent done enough study." Valen said in a stutter*
Doctor:
I am the CMO on the Windsor. I was wondering if you could take me on a tour of your sickbay?
Dr. Travis prepares all the biobeds for the incoming injured as well as preps a surgery room. getting supplies out.
travis is running around trying to tend to all the men.
"Your luckly i was delayed here, if you had no medics on the station many of these men would be dead. I've only lost 2. Some burns were 3rd degree and too massive to repair. I've had them sent to the morgue the aliens can take them for proper rituals. The rest are recovering. I'm preping 2 for surgery."
*Andros goes in out and of consciousness as the remainder of his knights try to ease andros's discomfort, then Andros comes awake and sits up on the biobed with the assistence of his knights*
Thank you my knights, Go about your business, *takes a deep breath and lets it out*. You stay with me young one, I may need your assistence to keep me awake.
Good Job Doctor, I thank you. My men thanks you too, there currently regenerating themselves, in other words there healing there minds mentally for there journey home. Nice job as well I must say.
*contacting Garhart*
"My friend, I thought I sensed you on board. My men are doing well thanks for to the skill of your doctor. I cant keep this mind link up sense im still weak, but I am alive. I sense you have questions, you know where to find me."
I know of the risk, and dont worry. Once we seal the deal, You can count on the continue support of my people, Your enemy will be our enemy for life!. Until my people no longer exist!
I wont ask much. But At the moment all I ask is that your suporiors Allow me to train Garhart as one of us.
*Garhart Walks into the Infirmary*
"Dr. How are our patients?"
*Walks over to Andros*
My friend, how are you feeling? Thank you for aiding in saving our people we will be forever greatful
=^=Update this sickbay is now under restriction all non-esentail personal are to leave now!!=^=
Yes Yes right this Way, Young man. *takes Tom into the Shambled Science bay*, As you can see it needs alot of work, *scratches his head*, mmmm Yes lots of work, I was working on a lil something but I think I mixxed the wrong 3 things and it made a big boom *chuckles*, Took out Science bay 2 :P
Hobson entered the infirmary.
"Doctor, I am here to kill two birds with one stone. You said something about senior officer medical checks over the comm I think, and I would like to see how things are going with this virus. Do you think there is a possibility that it was placed in the gel packs? I beleive Admiral Garhart gave the theory in passing, and I concur that there is a chance. It would be simular to the U.S.S. Voyagers encounter with command infected gel packs from a Section 31 officer".
"AHHH!!! <Valen said excited to his rock> hmmmmm, Very well, Computer lock out all medical files to my authorization only no one must tamper with medical files. NOPE!. <Computer confirmed the security lockout to all cept Valen>, NOW! where was I, Oh yes, you wanted to know about my medical bay, Hmmmmm, I run it the same as any other doctor I suppose, Call for weekly check ups, make sure everyone is in shape. Yup, I suggest you run check ups on the Windsor atleast 2x a week, I know it seems a bit much but those out in space tend to have more chances of getting unknown Viral infections, SAY!, what race are you ?, Anyways, If you cant figure something out dont give up keep trying, Try every Avenue, Make sure you have covered EVERY! option cuz if you dont cover everything someone may die because you didnt think of something to save there lives, but remember, we arent gods, but we must also explore every medical and scientific avenue to save lives, OH YES! and remember your Science officer is your friend!, hes got a brain, use him if needed, if you cant think of something, then get another head <Chuckles with his rock>, Okie ?"
"Oh what are you the ambassador of?"
"My stress levels have very much been on the edge. I am beginning to feel more content now though, and am currently working on my own negative traits. Thank you for the information doctor".
He watches as Ransom enters with the need of the doctor, and leaves.
OOC:// I think I was meant to say was, I leave his presence and goes to sit on a bio bed.
IC:
Richerd nods his head and begins to tinker with the bio beds trying to fix them, He mutters to himself, "Good thing I helped my dad restore things back on earth... otherwise I might be stuck doing nothing but my job." he then smiles and gets even more involved in fixing the bio beds.
"No Venting wont work, there dead, they cant breath so venting the air wont work. We must study first oh yes study."
*Then he latches onto Richerds arm because Valen was still terrified of every sound and movement*
"Right, Let's move out, You three fan out to the left and your three go to the right, the rest of you, let's get to the Infirmary and try and get that as our base of operations, remember, you are doing them a favor by disrupting and disabling the mirco bots, aim for the chest and if that doesn't work aim for the head, remember, use the specs that the Doc has worked out, I want this to go fast and easy, I don't want to loss anyone today." Richerd then signals everyone to move and at that moment the force fields drop as if they had just lost power.
Nesbitt walks in holding his side
Doc: whats wrong your highness
Nesbitt: my side is in serous pain
Doc: let me take a look
Doc: ok well it seems to be a stress ulcer
Doc: i can remove it right now have a sit lay back
Nesbitt: Ok
Doc: ok i'm putting you out now.
he holds some sort of transmitting device over the princes abdominal area and the nesbitt wakes up
Nesbitt: is that it
Doc: Yes you can go now
Nesbitt: ok thank you doctor.
Garhart starts beam Andros's people to the station infirmary
*Andros was in the infirmory talking to his men, as one of his men hands Andros his spare sword from his bedroom at his base, and the knights informing him his wife was safe and was sent home in a cruiser*
*with the doctors and nurses around, they all going into a mind link trance to build there mental powers back up to peak, bye leaning on each other, to block out each others weaknesses, while honoring the dead.........This goes on for about 6 hours*
*Valen Hobbles in and heads to his damaged Science bay, then looks back at the sick thats coming in, Starts to think why there getting sick*
*Valen goes and draws blood from one of the victims, then puts it under a parascope*
"Hmmmm, Interesting"
OOC**You leave but yet your sitting on my biobed ? how does that work ?.
IC**
"Well, make yourself useful if your going to sit there all day. I need you to fix those 4 broken biobeds. They been over in that corner sense I got here!."
*looks at richerd with an worried look*
"I.....I......I dont know what happened, All I know is that I was in my lab doing some experiments. I kept hearing noises, oh yes the NOISE!!, I went to see where the noise was coming from and the next thing I know the walking dead form of ensign White was walking towards me, then the others started to walk towards me, I decided to run and seal the door, then no one came when I called, White was one of the ones who ate that food from the replicators, some of them died, Yes, they DIED!!!! *sobs*, I dont know what happened, but they got up and started to attack me!."
*Then walking dead of Ensign White starts to bang on the forcefield with tremendous strength*
"I need a lab!!!, Yes, I need a lab. I need to find out whats happening so they can rest in peice!!"
*As the group proceeded to the infirmory the party halts as theres a bunch of moaning and groaning and there growing louder and closer bye the second*
Well Doctor, I was wanting to see how such a divine doctor as yourself runs his medical facility that way I can run mine in the same fashion. I am fresh out of the Academy and I wanting to learn as much as I can.
*Andros and his people were Encased in a strange armor that looked like it had its own power source, the armor was beat up, it looked like there were knife cuts and stabs that penatrated the armor, Dried blood was on the armor maybe his own, maybe theres, who knows, Burnt scorches covered every single knight, it looked as if they went threw hell and survived, as some of the knights lay in the biobeds groaning in pain, Andros's eyes flicker open long enough to see the Hazy Figures of garhart and Dr Travis, before slipping back into what looks to be sleep but actually is a trance*
*while in the trance contacts Travis and Garhart threw a limited and less powerful mind link*
"Doctor, you will be unable to take off our armor with your instruments, They are attached as a whole, On my left arm, press the triangle button, then press the sphere, it will in a sense beam our armor off of us. Take care of my men and I doctor. Our lives are in your hands. I was in hit in the chest, I may have a minor internal bleeding, as well as burnt marks on my hands. The rest of my troops were lucky, they werent as badly hurt as I am, they have minor to major burns and a few are complaining about there heads. We are all in a state of sleep, A deep trance if you will, you may operate on us if need be doctor. We will not feel a thing. good luck doctor"
=A= Hobson to Infirmary =A=
"Mr. Andros, two of your own have arrived to see you, main docking bay".
=A=Hobson to Starchaser: Have you made any progress with the sickness Lieutenant?=A=
Mr. Richerd come back and smiles a rock smile, "All done sir, but a leak was in one of the packs, I request some time in a bed to make sure that it isn't contracted by the skin. Also, I did myself due to all the work going on with the Winsor." he then leaves and sits on the edge of one of the bio beds.
Richerd only shook his head, "Well, we have some labs in the science wing of the station, but that's Commander Cook's territory... but I bet we can invade for a time being to see what is going on... but what should we do to contain them? Vent all the air in that area? This entire deck? I just want some straight answers." He then turned around and snapped at Ensign White.
"Will you stop your infernal Banging? Computer raise force fields to highest levels, safter override, Richerd Alpha one." With that the force field flared indicating that the computer had indeed raised the level, before it flaired and dropped to a the level that it was at orginally.
"Men... once this deck is evac. I want it sealed off... half of you, follow me and the doctor to the science labs... I want to get some answers and I want answers NOW!" RIcherd then turns and round and began to march down the corridor deep in thought, mainly on how to gain samples for the doctor.
Richerd silently motions for his men to deploy behind corners and other side hallways or door ways.
Richerd hands a hand Phaser with the modifications for their fight, "This is for your own protection, now get behinds me and watch my back." Richerd moves to a doorway that was opened by one of his other men and gets on his stomache while peeking out into the hallway into the direction of the moaning and groaning that was comming this way.
"Hmmmmm, <Squints his eyes hard to see the strange person in his medical bay>, of course you cant, no one sees my medical bay until they tell me who and WHAT! they are, OH NO!!! *chuckles as he begins to talk to a rock he picked up on Risa almost 4 years ago*, so Who are you speak up, Ohhh you said who you were, Hmmmmm, Why arent you on the Windsor, you dont need to see my medical bay you need to see your own, but you cant see your own till you go to your own sickbay on the Windsor that was supposed to be blown up, So why are you here and not there? <Then chuckles to his rock while waiting for a response>
