In Sickbay, Kastarak was beamed down to the emergency biobed. He was alive but unresponsive on most accounts.

Nurse Sutalo was manning Sickbay, and immediately hailed for Dr Symar to attend. In Sutalo’s view, no one better on the ship would understand Vulcan physiology, especially head trauma, than the ship’s other Vulcan doctor.

While waiting for Symar, Sutalo performed the basic scans on the limp Kastarak. He also managed to stop Kastarak’s bleeding, though he had already lost a lot of blood. In fact, Kastarak lay in a green pool of his own copper-based blood.

Sutalo hoped this wasn’t the end…

Symar bolted through the Sickbay doors, equipment already in hand, ‘Report!’ He ordered Sutalo.

Chernov was running on a minimal crew. Only Symar was the attending physician. It was reasoned thus that even if Symar was incapacitated, there were two more able physicians on board, Kastarak and Taggart. Symar’s duty was heavy. Moreover, only two nurses were on board, head nurse Sutalo and nurse Zhang Jingjing. Nurse Zhang was a civilian nurse, and, thus, had certain freedoms other officers in Sickbay wouldn’t normally have. She didn’t have to respect the hierarchy as much as others, but at the same time, she was on the lowest rung.

Nurse Zhang ran into Sickbay, just a few seconds after Symar entered. Sutalo looked at his two colleagues coming in.

“Doctor Symar, Miss Zhang, patient is Kastarak, Vulcan male, aged 28, admitted in emergency due to head injury along the parietal ridge. Traumatic brain injury suspected, internal bleeding suspected. Scans show intra-axial lesions. Patient is unresponsive. Stable pulse, blood pressure is going down. Blood oxygen saturation is dangerously low. Your orders, Doctor?”

Before Symar could answer, the Sickbay doors opened up, and in came three new patients. An Andorian female with an injured antenna, supporting a human male who appeared to have a fracture in his left femur. There was also a human female with laboured breathing.

Zhang looked at Symar.

“Stabalise blood pressure and oxygen levels first, I will start working on dermal regeneration of the head injury once we know the XO isn’t going to flatline on us while we calm him down.”
