John had been about to knock, only to pause. The female Bolian appeared in a rush to get out of here and he couldn’t blame her. The rocks appeared like they could cave in at any moment. When Rainns cried out, the man flinched and he quickly retreated back to them.

He nodded then started to assist Mika. His fingers gripped whatever loose rocks he could as he pulled them away. Each time they began to shift, he stopped and redirected his efforts to lessen the pressure. He took a moment to nervously glance around.

“Just us three won’t be enough. Not if we want to be fast about it. We should contact Chief Tavium and have her group help us.” He stated, looking at Rainns to make the call.

Even if he didn’t, John knew Tavium’s group would show up at some point. Their tunnel didn’t have the survivors it seemed.

-NE, John Doe

Rainns acknowledged the Cadet’s suggestion and nodded his head and agreement. =^= Rainns to Tavium, we have encountered at lost one survivor and possibly more, we require assistance in getting them out of the tunnels. =^= Rainns looked at Mika, “If you have a medical tricorder now might be a good time to scan behind that door and see how many more survivors are down here at the moment.”

“You’re going to have to sit tight just a moment, Borefar. We need help moving this rubble. I’ll be right back, okay?” Mika said to the Bolian, and then stood and moved towards the door, scanning it with her tricorder. “Of course I’ve got one. Give it a minute.” She said, watching the screen for the results. At least she wasn’t nervous anymore. She felt like she was running back and forth, from task to task, and she worried she wasn’t experienced enough to do this on her own. She wished Lieutenant Tija were here. Or at least someone else from Medical.

Suddenly the CMO’s voice could be heard through the CoS combadge. =/\= Tija to Tavium. Do you need further assistant Lieutenant? We treated everyone in the bunker and could help you. =/\=

The Bolian didn’t seem to actually be dodging any questions, at least as far as she was concerned. There wasn’t a glint of deceit in her eyes at least. When she looked back over her shoulder she swallowed hard. “There should be, uh, four of them in there, safe and sound snug as a bug in a rug.” She attempted a grin then looked back down at her feet, “Cant you just, you know, melt the thing with your phasers?”

The scan showed that there were indeed four miners just hanging out in the emergency shelter.

Rainns put down his rifle and unholstered his smaller, type 2 phaser and set it to the appropriate level. “Standby.” He said, He began to fire a narrow beam that cut through several of the rocks and loosened them up so that she could be pulled free of them. “Let’s get those four miners out of here, He said, holstering the phaser and picking up the rifle again.

Mika pulled her free once she could be, moving her away from the rocks. Then she gave her one last check over for injuries. “Once we get the other miners, we’ll get all four of you out of here. Okay?” She said.

=^= Tavium to Rainns. We’re already heading your way. We didn’t find anything so I assumed you would. =^= Lt. Tavium stated as her group turned about. She got another message. She replied to it while already heading back to the other tunnel.

=^= Tavium to Tija, the cadets might need help. Currently, I’m heading that way. I don’t know the condition of the survivors they found until I get there.=^=

Nijix’s trip would be shorter the second time around.

Meanwhile, Doe grunted but he struggled to move the rocks. They were too intertwined together causing issues when he removed just one. When Rainns used the rifle, he immediately moved back and braced himself. As the dust cleared, he could see Mika had already moved the patient.

By this time, the Chief had arrived.

“What’s the full situation?” While she had gotten an update earlier, some time had passed between point A to B.

She needed information on any changes in their situation before reporting to Tija.

-NE, John Doe/ Lt. Nijix Tavium, CoS

The Mining Company COS was pulled free and then her leg patched up as she watched Tavium appear from the darkness of the tunnel. She smiled warmly then sighed, “We really need to all get out of here until we can get some engineers to shore up the braces here.

=/\= Understood Lieutenant. Cadet Schweitzer and I are on our way. Can you tell us where exactly you are? =/\= Tija replied while making sure she had put all her equipment back into her bag.
