The feeling of the ship in combat that Trax felt was muted, there were minor shudders here and there, followed by the whine or soft thud of return fire by the Ark Angel. Not long after the feeling of evasive maneuvers, and more weapons fire by both sides. A quite striking blow sent the ship shuddering and jostling their footing some, but otherwise so far seemed ok, until…

=/\= NE Val in Sickbay 3, to Sickbay 1, we’re rerouting NE Bar’cal from engineering maintenance 3 to you guys for emergency surgery, they had a hull breach there and while he didn’t get sucked into the vacuum he got some bad plasma burns.. =/\= The medical NE said.

No sooner that the woman spoke when in came two engineering NE’s, one was the Romulan Bar’cal who had plasma burns down much of his left side of the body, and burned clothes half charred. The fact the man was walking was a testiment to his stamina, specks of green blood though seeped deeply from many deep cuts. The other engineer NE Baker laid the man down carefully on a nearby biobed. “..I need to get back to engineering, he’s in your hands now!” he said rushing out then without another word as the soft thumping of more impacts from combat were felt in the deck plating.

Biobed readings showed Bar’cal had lost quite a bit of blood, plasma burns were heavy on almost 3/4th of his left side of his body, and he had deep lacerations and other cuts along that quarter, the worst being along his left shoulder, face, and arm. His left eye alone it was clear was boiled away and would need to be replaced once he was stable by an artificial device. For now though stabilizing him and preventing him going into shock and stemming the loss of blood and getting a transfusion going would be the first top priorities.

Trax moved over and started to work on the new patient right away. He gave the patient a mild sedative to stay off the pain and help him be more comfortable. As he dealt with his shock symptoms. He made sure the gave him a light dose. He knew too much might make him go into a coma or die as he started cleaning the wounds and started repairs of the tissues using a dermal regenerator. He did enough so that he could place a blanket on him without the wound trying to stick to it. And to help with the shock symptoms and keep the patient warm till when it was safe for him to finish the work to heal the officer.

Trax’s efforts during this time were slowly successful in stemming the bleeding and stabilizing the Romulan engineer. His internal bleeding however, that was slowed but not stopped was still the most evident problem, that and his blood loss already that had happened would need to be replaced by transfusions in storage as already mentioned previously. Surgery too would need to be hastily prepped and gotten underway if there was to be any chance to save the man’s life.

Scans would show two points that would need operating, the 1st was smaller in nature, was along the man’s upper intestinal lining just below his stomach. The 2nd was more severe was the Romulans left lung along the lower right corner of it was punctured by a piece of shrapnel, in essences the man’s lower guts was drowning in his blood, and his lungs filling with it as well, even slowed now as it was from Trax’s medicine work.
