Given they were still out in the open of the street minus Ovik’s check on the houses they had yet to find bodies. Perhaps if they entered the admin building or a house/shop they might find more. So far beyond that though beyond the phasered cow remains nearby they had no sign of the colonists.

Ovik began gathering blood samples, and giving them to Doctor Hudson, as his scans would reveal the most. Ovik ran some basic scans to see what he could find - what species, how fresh, etc.

Eventually the Vulcan joined the others, doctor in tow. “Scans are coming in. I would opine that we check out a building. Given the news from the Sentinel, I would prefer we go together.” He put his tricorder back in its belt clip until it chimed with a response and got his phaser out.

Paul ran a basic cellular scan on the blood splatter. As the recordings processed (ooc: Rob scan results please?) and Ovik walked back to the others He looked around at the buildings and headed towards the nearest building, tricorder out as he went. Careful steps and ears straining to hear anything.

One set of blood samples was clearly human, it was about four days old. Another sample was of the local cows of an equal age. But something seemed off about the sample that the tricorder couldn’t determine, some kind of foreign substance.

Well that was odd…he thought.

He crept closer to the building doorway and once there reached out to the handle. Pushing it open slightly then using his hand at full extended reach to push it all the way.

Pushing open the nearest building found him entering a boarded up shop. Inside the place was a wreck like the literal herd of bulls had run through the shop and out the back door. Several trampled bodies were present all human and likely the shop keepers family.

Frowning, Hudson picked his way over the carnage and knelt by one body. He gave it a visual inspection first then opened the tricorder pouch. Removing the hand held probe he began another scan checking for injuries.

Quinn, having seen the elderly doctor had clearly not bothered to pay any attention when back on the ship, followed him. Treading lightly she drew up behind him. She was not intentionally trying to scare him, but if he did so happen to take a fright, he might just learn to stick with on of the other team members… or take a heart attack.

“Find anything interesting, Doc?” she said directly into his ear, just as he opened the door.

When she saw the inside of the shop she exclaimed, “holy cow, this place is a mess.”

Paul didn’t so much as blink as the annoying security chief spoke. He did frown however. “Trust me kid, there was nothing holy about these cows. Looks like something put the devils fear into them and they trashed the place. What’s that old earth saying about bulls in china shops?”

Quinn could help but feel slightly disappointed that the Doc had not at least flinched. Dammit, Quinn, focus. You’re on the job and unfortunately, Star Fleet frowns upon you having that sort of fun while working. Instead, she replied, “I’ve never heard of actuall bulls in china shops, but this might be a first.”

He stood and looked down at the bodies, moving to each one in turn to scan. A mixture of pity and anger colouring his expression. Then he opened his communicator.

=C= Hudson to the sentinel, I got some weird biomaterial scans I need someone to run a comparison on with the medical and scientific databases through the computer. =C= he said.

While Hudson looked at the bodies, Quinn started to examine the rest of the carnage, first, checking for evidence that would confirm that the damage had indeed been done by a heard of cows and second, for anything out of the ordinary.

Ovik wandered around a bit, looking at the debris and carnage, helping the Doc where possible. But in the end, he setup his own little perimeter watch, pacing around to guard the three of them with him.

Now that Phy-Knight was with Doc, The’lin motioned Ovik over to him as he headed to look at another of the buildings. “You think most of the damage was from these.. cows? Or did you find any signs of the damage being caused by anything else?” The Andorian was dismayed at not finding anyone alive down on the surface, but he didn’t allow that into his expression. “There’s something about this I don’t like at all…” He said quietly to the Vulcan.

As they moved, he reached out with his antennae to study the magnetic fields of the structures, trying to parse if any of them were about to collapse.
