More time passed and no one had entered sickbay ‘’ Might as well relax cause…’’ Cross did not had time to finish the sentence when a crewman came running in out of breath ‘’ Someone is stuck in one of the Jeffrey tubes. I tried to help but realized one of the tools he was using has penetrated his side and he’s bleeding ‘’.

‘’On our way’’ Cross replied without hesitation.

Upon hearing this, Faith gazed over at Kate and gave her a look. Leaving Sickbay to climb Jeffries Tubes in the dark, with nothing but unshielded candles, seemed like a recipe for more injuries, but you could never stop Cross from doing what she had in her head. Her impulsiveness might make her dangerous sometimes, but she got things done. Faith continued caring for the existing patients and hoping that the lights would come back on soon.

Cross followed the man.

The other crew member came back to sickbay and told Kate, “Doctor Cross has a PT with a Pneumothorax and an injury from a screwdriver ..she said you’d know what she needs and to bring them on the double ‘’.

Kate left the Sickbay with the other crew member, leaving Faith alone there. She wished they could at least have some security to act as a porter or triage these patients.

As more patients with trips and falls came into Sickbay, Faith decided that she really ought to wake up Doctor Kim from his nap now.
