It had been a while since River had, had a medical evaluation. On her previous posting there wasn’t really much time for that. She didn’t mind medical check ins, they where important. Anyone not fit for duty had to be dealt with, one way or another. She reached sickbay and walked inside. Her ice blue cold eyes surveyed the room, with almost a predatory stare. She looked for the nearest doctor and went up to them.

“I’m here for my board Eval, I’m River Styxx the new Marine” she said blandly.

“In that case, you need to see Staff Sergeant Hewson-Williams,” the NE doctor replied, “He’s over there.”

The NE indicated to an admin area of sickbay, where a marine medic was sat at a desk using the terminal.

River simply nodded and walked over to the seated Marine. “My name is lieutenant River Styxx. I’m here for my evaluation.” she said simply “I was informed that you where the one to see.” she added.

“The Devil Of Acheron, herself,” Phil answered finishing up the sentance on the paperwork he was at before rising from the desk and making eye contact with the Lieutenant. It was clear from his tone that he already disliked River.

“Welcome aboard,” he said in his deep voice and distinctly English accent, “So what have we done to deserve the pleasure of your presence?”

-Phil

I do so love it when people use my name River thought to herself. “charmed to meet you too. I was ordered here by command. I do as I’m ordered. Maybe they thought i could whip the marines here into shape. maybe they want to give me a break” she said simply.

“We all follow our orders, Sir,” Phil answered curtly, “For some of us that means picking up the pieces of what is left afterwards.”

“However that is for me and command to discuss. I need my eval done and i was told you were the one to see. So shall we begin?” she added after a short pause.

“Sharp, and to the point,” Phil replied, “And yes, that may be for command to discuss with you, but that is not what I am talking about.”

Phil rose from his desk and took out a tricorder. As he began to scan Styxx he paced slowly around the desk. The tricorder hummed as he continued his scan.

“Did you ever see the broken remains of the marines at Archeron?” he asked, “And I’m not just talking of the dead.”

-Phil

Phil’s scan would show a vast catalog of injuries, all healed but recent most likely received during The siege of Acheron. The scan would also pick up a tattoo on her wrist. a tattoo of the name Lilly and a stardate.

“Yes I did. I also saw children looking for there parents, parent looking for their children. The local Malita helping the civilians, the Militia where handling the situation better then marines. some marines where cowering in corners wolering in self pity. If you’re looking for some form of compassion I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you. Many of us at the end of the siege could barely remember what compassion and mercy where.” River said simply.

“It’s ironic, we became monsters to stop monsters.” she added after a short pause.
