Mission: The Forgotten Outpost
Location: Sickbay
Timeline: Current

The Chief Medical Officer sat in her office, going over crew medical charts, annual physicals and all vaccinations required for the back end of the galaxy.

She sipped black coffee, and signed off on another physical report.

As she closed out her work. She tapped her private communique, replying to Ambassador Serron, thanking him for the yellow roses and lovely silk scarf. He, a good friend, and one of the most sensual Vulcans she had ever met. He was not full Vulcan, he did have some human in his bloodline notable by his dark blonde hair and hazel green eyes.

She knew he intended to ask her to marry him one day, but for now; her career and his were their focus.

As she opened gifts and sent thank you messages, she rose from her seat and closed the communique.

Making her way to the ward she checked on patients still in Sickbay, making notes, instructing the Nurses and Doctor's on each case and moved onwards. ...

As the day wore on, she decided to get some lunch.

As she walked down the supply corridor, she heard a blood curdling scream. She turned, picked up a reseal laser surgical tool. She heard it behind her, breathing and that smell.....

As she quietly moved down the corridor something jumped out and knocked her down. She pushed the laser closer device into the attackers face and pressed on. A howl of pain the attacker ran. She tapped her commbadge. :
"Security to Medical supply closet five, unknown intruder, strong looked like a wild animal, I wounded it with a laser dermal closing tool.

She winced at the pain of the shoulder. She had landed hard when the animal attacked.

She limped into the Sickbay ward and Nurse Street accessed her shoulder. Doc Hunter used a soft tissue ligament repair tool on her and soon she felt better.

She told a very junior Security guard about the creature and how she did not it meat harm that it was just scared.
