The girl was indeed six years old on the patient records. Susan Borns to be precise, the woman was her biological mother Sally Borns. The mother was shown to be a member of several of the smaller mining teams on Vok III. The daughter was currently enrolled in the general education program for the colony as well as a higher quality professional culture and dance school. The girl wore a light blue mid-arm shirt with a similar light blue pair of pants and a pair of light blue sneakers of snap on hooks. She had light golden brown hair, teal like eyes, and darker tanned skin. The girl was obviously in a sour mood given she hmphed to her mother’s chiding sticking out her tongue and then crossed her arms sullenly over her chest to wait for Yarwood to get to work. Looking at her local medical file from the colony there was indeed a note on file from a Doctor Steven Conners that the girl had a great dislike of medical professionals and when inclined would bite or scratch them.

Looking at the girl, Alwyn dropped to his knees to get at the girl’s height. “Susan, is it ? I’m Alwyn, nice to meet you”, he said, leaving his doctor title out to reassure her. “Would you let me examine you ?”

”..No! I don’t you wanna! If you try I’ll bite you good!” The girl named Susan replied to the doctor before chomping her teeth. Then turning away pouting and doing her best to try to pull away from him and her mother in turn.

Sighing at this the girls mother Sally rolled her eyes mouthing “..Go ahead..” so her daughter could not see.

Looking at the mother, Alwyn said : “Does she have any problem, any medical condition ?”

Noticing the little girl and remembering how she used to hate doctors herself.. she reached into a pocket pulling out some string tying it together the two ends creating a circle she smiled down at the girl as she watched, Iris slipped the circle of string over her two middle fingers manipulating it over her other fingers to create different shapes with it as the child watched intently amazement in her eyes.

The girl did at first for a few seconds seem interested in the distraction Iris gave, but seeming to quickly wise up to such a tactic probably in the past she quick stuck out her tongue and turned away.

The mother Sally replied to Alwyn’s question, “..No, she’s quite healthy overall. No medical conditions or allergies. Only ‘problem’ as you no doubt by now noticed, is she does not like medical professionals. She will indeed bite or scratch you given half a chance, no matter what I try to do to distract or such with her. If you can do your scans as far out of her reach as possible..” She offered.

”..They’re all meanie! I don’t wanna get scammed!” Susan shouted mixing up scanned with scammed in her tirade.

“I’ll do my best”, Alyn said to the mother. The doctor took a look at Avarak, and seeing what she did to distract the little girl, he nodded at her as a silent way to ask if she could distract Susan again.

Hoping Avark understood his intentions, he pulled out a tricorder and calibrated it, waiting for Avarak’s distraction.
