It didn’t take long to go through the two medikits as T’Saie had studied and knew exactly what to be looking for. ‘They were both ready to go’ she thought to herself, hoping the cadets don’t forget them on their way. She snapped around gracefully, looking around Sickbay she saw an excess of unnecessary equipment lying around and seeing that both nurse French and Ratchet had everything under control, she thought she had better keep being useful.

As she started walking, she let the CMO pass in-front of her before moving around sickbay to tidy up unimportant equipment and to ensure the Biobeds are ready for more patients, should they be needed.

Sera regarded the scans with her dark eyes, “It does indeed resemble a nervous system, I can’t say that I have, but we can see if we get any hits off the medical database,” she tapped a few buttons to run a comparison search.

The medical database a took a moment to return any results at all but eventually came back with the suggestion that the nervous system worked on electrical impulses alone however a lot have some sort of fluid to aid in the transmission of those signals. In short, what is happening in the ship could be a nervous system. What they are looking at very easily could be a new undocumented synthetic life form.

Aili’s hair was held up in a mess as her elbow jutted out from the side of her head. “What do we look at then to classify something as living or non-living, as we understand such things?”

“Well this thing certainly looks like it could be something synthetic,” Sera pursed her lips, mentally stepping back through her training, “Computer, compare these scans to any known synthetic lifeforms in the database.”

She wasn’t sure if that would return any hits, but maybe if she could find a previous encounter with some similar lifeform that they could use to start to develop how to deal with this thing.

As T’Saie finished packing away equipment she meandered herself back to Cadet Wysocki, heading straight for the biobed monitor to check up on the cadets condition whilst Nurse Ratchet continued to heal his plasma burns. “How’s he doing?” she questioned with a small degree of concealed concern, tapping away at the biobed console.

Her arms now crossed firmly, the CSO made a brusque comment. “Makes you wonder who’d put something like this together in the first place.”

“Could be simply as an experiment perhaps,” Sera shrugged, “People have been trying to recreate artificial life for nearly as long as civilizations have been around. Not my cup of tea personally, but I suppose some people might consider playing with the building blocks of sentient life as fun.”

“I wonder what the limits are on this thing’s intelligence,” she mused out loud, “I can identify a nervous system, for certain, but is that the extent of it or is there more?”
