“Fair enough assessment. Let’s head that direction and I’ll update the Europa over our situation.” Avik stated as she pressed her comm badge. The moment Abrams moved, the XO wouldn’t be far behind. She didn’t want to get left behind here. At least both the CoS and CMO could pass for normal humans, even in their current attire. A high doubt crossed Avik’s mind that a Vulcan with green blood and pointed ears could so easily escape notice.

=^=XO to Europa. Away team checking in.=^=

Avik waited until she heard an answer from the bridge before she would make a report and share their findings. Through at this point, she felt they had more questions than conclusive answers.

–XO, Avik, Lt. Cmdr

OOC: Not sure if this will get through to the ship, so I didn’t copy and paste. There were prior issues mentioned with interference from the planet and considering the thread with the bridge, I’ll let the GMT decide on this one.

-Janice B.

=^= Stand by for the captain, Commander.=^= came the reply from the ship. The signal seemed a little distorted, but readable.

The sensor readings of the human indicated that he wasn’t to far now. The tricorder readings were still a little off from the radiation, but it showed him about 30 meters away now, moving slowly in a small area. His life signs were even more erratic then before.

-GMT

Avik frowned as she fought not to sigh. She pressed her combage and informed the bridge of their situation. They couldn’t simply stand in place while they attracted more attention.

=^= Right now, we risk contact with the locals. We’re moving to avoid it.=^=

She looked to the CoS to lead the way, pausing to check if the CMO was around. It surprised her a bit he didn’t ask to ensure she hadn’t been injured during the fall and insisted on a check over. Even if she felt fine, muscles could’ve been pulled or other unknown factors.

–XO, Avik, Lt. Cmdr

Zeke was using his tricorder to examine a nearby shrub. “Is there any nearby sign of life, besides our speedy target?” he asked.

CMO

The human had slowed, the shouting heard earlier sounded rougher, almost like a wounded animal, almost desperate. The away team couldn’t see him, but he was close, with in 30 meters. The medical tricorder showed that he was injured now, although the extent of the injuries were not apparent at this time. He was moving slower now, very slowly moving towards the away team.

-GMT

Avik’s tricorder gave off an alert. Her eyes narrowed and analyzed the data, her eyes widened subtly. She couldn’t wait for the CO to answer her earlier call. Her face turned to Abrams, her expression and expression calm.

“It doesn’t seem like it. I’m getting no readings aside from him and he’s slowed down, but we should be cautious. It seems he’s injured.” She mentioned as she looked to the other two.

–XO, Avik, Lt. Cmdr

“I think that he’s being chased,” Zeke suggested. “Perhaps by a local animal? Maybe we can go to him and see if we can aid him.”

CMO

OOC: Is the comm call going to be cross-posted to the bridge so they actually know we’re making contact?
IC:
Readying her weapon, Abrams moved ahead at a cautious but brisk pace. “Beats waiting for whatever to come to us,” she said. “We’re not going to figure this out waiting around, and we’ve got a perfectly good shuttle to escape on if need be.” She naturally moved to take point and moved along towards the possibly injured person.

Abrams, COS

Avik said nothing. Instead, she followed her two officers and carefully monitored her step. Falling into another trap wouldn’t do today. Her tricorder raised to scan for more lifeforms or unexpected complications.

–XO, Avik, Lt. Cmdr

The woods were think in that area, however, after moving about 15 or so meters, it started to clear a little. The Tricorder scans revealed nothing outside of the human, no other animals or other life forms.

Cassidy kept her sense alert and phaser at the ready as they moved towards the man. Although everything about this situation was bizarre, she had a growing sense of determination to figure it out.

They reached a clearing in the woods and they could see him now. He was a little more then 15 meters away, near a small clearing in the woods. He appeared to be in his late twenties to early thirties, he had shaggy brown hair and was tall, with broad shoulders. As the team saw him they could tell he was wounded. He was limping and he was holding a wound on his right side with his left hand. He didn’t notice the away team as they emerged from the woods.

Suddenly he turned around quickly and, in his right hand was a melee weapon. It looked like a Sai. He raised his weapon as if to block an attach. The away team could hear the faint sound of metal on metal. The human parried the invisible blow with difficulty. He then blocked another blow, this time around his chest and sent out what looked like a painful left side kick. He groaned in pain. As his foot landed he tried to spin, as if to block another blow, but he was to slow, something pierced his chest. The away team couldn’t see what had struck him, but they could see that the wound penetrated the center of his chest and came out the other side. Blood flowed from his wound. The Man said nothing as another blow hit him, this time into his ribs. His body jerked, he raised his weapon again, then collapsed on the ground.

-GMT

Confused, Cassidy edged closer, phaser pointed in his direction but looking for an opponent that seemed invisible. “Could be cloaked somehow,. I’m going to take a shot and see. Take cover,” she said half over her shoulder so that her eyes never fully left the scene in front of her. It was a judgement call and there wasn’t time entirely to figure it out. That man was their only answer to a whole bunch fo questions they had and if he died, they might too. Cassidy fired in the direction of where she thought someone would be had they stood in front of the man to hit him. It was blind shooting and she took a step to the side immediately after in anticipation that someone may try to fire a weapon back. Though by the looks of it, it wasn’t an energy weapon she had to worry about.
