“Doctors, I’m not familiar with the colonists biology, nor those....creatures.... and I of course yield situational discretion to your team and security in this type of matter but would flooding the cargo bay with anesthezine be a viable option without further risking their lives?” Barely taking a breath Dael spit the long and formal sentence out in his same stream of thought as his out loud thinking had been. He wasn’t really registering his diction at the moment, in the focus to take himself out of the situation and approach things as he could, it seemed to just be coming out that way. All he was allowing himself to think of was solutions.

Looking at Lieutenant Stadi, Aaron put himself together and tried to look confident: “That…um, that depends on the condition of the patient, Lieutenant. Or the creature.” He took a moment to look at the colonist, thinking about the type of anesthetic and the living one condition. Focusing on a goal and trying to find a solution helped him to relieve some stress, even if the situation was still horrible.

OOC: Some good thoughts.

While there was a much better sensor reading of the colonists in the cargo bay, this excluded the ones in close proximity of the creatures. It appeared as if the creatures themselves were the source of the sensor disruption. The five colonists within close proximity to the creatures could not be locked onto individually for transport and raising a forcefield to separate the last one alive from the creatures wasn’t possible. The rest of the group could be surrounded by a forcefield and protected by further attacks, but that wouldn’t do anything for the last survivor under attack.

OOC: I was waiting to see if I could get some Security Cadets in on this, but I do apologize for the delay. I’ve had to insert a reply again, I hope you all don’t mind.

Rodier stood before the door, his phaser held firmly in his right hand, with his left held up in a fist to signal his team. He was aware of the distinctive heavy footsteps of NC Kyos behind him, bringing the total force up to five, but he dared not turn as he waited for the forcefield to fall.

Turning to Lieutenant Rodier, Aaron said: “According to our situation, I would recommend anesthizine for colonist in non-critical state. For the critical one, I would choose neurozine to reduce the chance of complication. And for the creatures, I would recommend axonol in gaseous form injected directly inside the force field, since we don’t know how their pulmonary system work. Aesthizine could be injected in gaseous form too. And if we fail in extracting colonists from the field, we could still use the axonol or the anesthizine both for them and the creature.”

“But that will depend on your orders, ma’am”, said the doctor, turning to Lieutenant O’Connell.

Ari ran her hand across her forehead. “A good suggestion Doctor Williams. However, We don’t have enough information to ensure a gas will work on the creatures or how quickly they will metabolise it and getting close enough to hypo is likely to be dangerous. See if you can run a bio analysis scan from here on them.”

She looked at the CoS “Until we know more, I would recommend we erect the force field around the survivors and stun the attacking ones quickly then attempt to contain them and save the survivor.”

She became aware of the fact the captains transport hadn’t seemed to work and repeated herself via the comms.
=^= O’Connell to Bridge. Transport seems to have failed the creatures attacking seem to be giving off some sort of interference. I would recommend we try to erect a force field around the survivors and enter to stun the attacking ones quickly then attempt to contain them and save the survivor.=^=

Lt O’Connell
CMO

As soon as he heard the clear command from the Security Chief, Dael activated the force field protocols he had been setting up. With a quick punch of a key the blue shimmering field should drop and allow anyone from security, medical or the senior staff such as himself into the room. He moved out of the way of the security team from the doorway of the bay while still manning his console.
He overheard the doctor’s comments, and cursing under his breath. “On it.” he said as he started to focus on separating colonists that were already clear of the creatures into a forcefield barrier. Luckily this was one of the better parts of the ship to setup forcefields, part of the reasoning he had for using the Cargo Bay. Any number of volatile chemicals or materials could be stored at times in a ship’s cargo bay, and that meant containment barriers were already the norm here rather than the engineer having to submit too many new parameters to the computer. “Working on getting the rest of the colonists safe, but the ones being attacked are going to be Security’s problem.” he said while inputting several commands into the logic control of the system. A few diversions of the field emitters here, some redirect of energy there… with a final notation he pressed the input key on the console and risked a look at the chaos inside to make sure that it had worked.

=/\= Prioritize separating the attacking creatures from the colonists and then neutralize the attackers. Transport each colonist and their attending medical personnel directly to Sickbay on their call. =/\=
