Kane looked at him and said “I spent the better portion of the last few days dealing with werewolves, vampires, overzealous Engineers, and your guts… No. I don’t want to watch a flick where people get flayed alive. Besides, the special effects are terrible. That doesn’t even look like blood.” He picked up the remote and turned it back on. “Watch. Relax. Sleep. Clear liquids and plain foods for ninety six hours.” and he turned and walked out of the room.

Chris just smiled the best he could he and nodded and went back to watching the movie. Moving his hand slowly he picked up the cup with water in it and slowly brought it to his lips to take a drink from the straw from it. “Ahh”

Chris CO

Something was wandering through the halls, watching, thinking. The screen for Chris’ movie blinked in front of him and then went out. After a moment a voice said, seemingly in his mind, Hm. Weakened. But you won’t draw attention to yourself. Hello Christopher. He couldn’t move.

-Fate

“What the?” Chris said either out loud or in his mind. He could move to get the remote or even speak to the computer. Then he heard the voice… “What in the universe is going on? Who and what are you and what are you doing on this ship?” Again he didn’t know if he actually spoke the words or not.

The door slid open and Kane came into the room. He grabbed the remote and turned off the movie. ” see those machines there? They monitor your vital signs. Your blood pressure just spiked. No more horror movies for three days.” and he turned to walk back out the door.

Kane, CMO

Uh uh uh Christopher. Not yet. Warning your crew would have… severe results.

-Fate

“Thank you doctor Solomon.” Chris said. In his inner voice he said. Fine Venom. I didn’t. What do you want?

Captain Chris Taggart CO

Kane went through the doors and let them close, and then froze a sec. He looked at the assembled staff that was gathering up things and said “What are his readings right now?” and he grabbed the monitor and looked. Every was pretty normal. Slight elevation in heart rate and blood pressure. But something was off. He took his tricorder and looked at Bell.

Quietly he said “Get everyone out. Something is wrong. Get the XO and Security here. He may be having a neural episode or something else, but called me ‘doctor Solomon’. He knows I’m not a doctor and I never go by that name. So get the XO and security here. And dont let anyone in.” and he watched them leave.

Kabe then walked back in and said “Forgot to set your colostomy bag schedule. Now remember, you have to change bags every six hours, waste or not. Do not pull some crap like you did after that hernia you got waterskiing on Risa. Got it?”

Kane, CMO

Chris looked surprised as Kane came back in unexpectedly. “Well if I could pull crap like that again, then I’d need two bags! I’m full of sh*t you know doctor. Besides, why do I have to change them? Can’t an orderly do it? You know I’ll just get it everywhere.”

He lean up a bit but it hurt so he laid back down. “Pssst. Pissst. Solomon.” He said whispering and waving his hand to come here like he had a secret. “Can you put in one of my musicals? You know how I love my musicals. I do not care which one. Surprise me good sir.”

Kane looked at Taggart and simply said “Not now.” and he looked around as if expecting to find some kind of surveillance device or something. “But yes, Christopher… I do know how you love a good musical number. Maybe tomorrow. For now, you need to rest. Do you need something to help you sleep?” he asked, trying to glean meaning as to what was going on… because something was going on.

Kane, CMO

“Very well” He said with a frown. “I’ll watch it tomorrow. But I don’t know if you got anything that will help me sleep. My head is........”Thinking about what the thing said about not being good for the crew if he told Kane or anyone........”is fine. My head is fine and I’ll just try to get some sleep Doctor. Goodnight.”

Captain Chris Taggart CO

A laugh echoed through Chris’ mind. Good, Christopher.

Figuring the Doc and others would be gone, Bridie headed back to Taggart’s room to see how he was. She knew there was pretty much nothing he could do for himself, besides reach for his water. So she thought she could help. Even if it was just to be present in the other room so he didn’t feel alone.

Coming up to the door, a soft scowl covered her face. “Belle, what’s going on? Is everything all right?” She nodded to the others gathered outside the door and wondered just what in all the galaxies warranted such a coverage.
