Jasper finished off taking the doctor back to her stateroom on the Merrimack before heading for some rest and relaxation. Jasper checked to see if the RR was still on. And he was confirmed that it was on. As he signed out of the ship once again as he was moving to the transporter pad. Please beam me to my home in West Virginia. As he gave the officer his coordinates for his beam down which should beam him down by the mailbox on the mail drive to his parents home. As the officer typed in the coordinates. “Excuse me, sir? Are you aware that it’s raining in that location? ” The transporter chief told Jasper. “I was not aware but thank you for letting me know I will grab an umbrella. ” Jasper said with a smile as he pulled one out of his locker. Jasper stood on the transporter pad and turned and faced the officer. “Beam me down when you are ready.” Jasper stated calmly as he waited for the chief to be ready.

Jasper straightened his uniform as the transporter chief finished what he was doing. “Energizing !” the engineer finally spoke as the system hummed to life as it got louder he has beamed away to his ancient family home. As he materialized he started to feel the rain beginning to start and a clap of thunder and lighting was seen in the nearby distance as the thunder vibrated through the mountains. Jasper quickly popped up his umbrella. As he started his walk towards a series of mailboxes as he checked the mail in his mailbox before heading down the driveway to the house. As the wind picked up he could smell someone cooking somewhere off in the distance. As it made his tummy rumble.

He continued to walk as he made his way down the long drive towards the house. As the rain steadily got worse and the wind began to howl hard. Jasper had not seen it like that in a long time Jasper fears its might be tornado weather. Which should not be possible due to the new weather control satellites were installed a while ago. unless there malfunctioning. Jasper looked for a deep ravine and a place to take cover until the storm let up. As Hail and lightning started to get wilder. Lighting had charged the atmosphere strong enough to make his hair stand on end.

As he found a place to hide under a bridge as he held onto the iron beams as he pressed his head into the iron beam to shield his eyes from the debris. As he wrapped his arms and legs around the beam for dear life. As the loud familiar sound of a tornado was now barring down on him. The wind howled and lighting stuck the bridge above him which caused a jolt of lighting through the beams and to the ground as the water in the creek sizzled loudly as he fought to keep awake and keep his grasp of the beam As he fell unconscious. As he slumped off the beam and fell towards the now quiet water. as he fell in feet first as he was out cold. Luckily it was not to deep at present a few inches but it was known from the past was known to flooding.

As the water slowly rose and the swiftness of water was trying to take the man away with it. Jasper woke up just enough and moved himself to safety as he passed out yet again. As the storm subsided and cleared as he Jasper woke up again soaking wet and muddy. and charred parts of his uniform and hair. As he started to take in his barrings again. “What in the world happened??” as he took note of his appearance. he grabbed his communicator and noted it was totally destroyed from the storm. As he climbed out of the ravine and continued home again. it seemed to be harder and harder to walk as he got to the yard he could hear others talking and conversing at the dinner table. As he made it to the door and tapped the doorbell.

He quickly grabbed the seat next to the door and fell into it as he felt the energy leave him as he fell unconscious. A man came to the door did not see anyone at first the looked towards the chair. “Cousin Jasper?? ” He said softly at first… “Jasper!! Oh! God!! Call for a Doctor quick. The man stated quickly as he quickly picked up Jasper like he was nothing and moved him from the chair to the main guest room on the main floor as he got Jasper in the room quickly got him undressed out of the nasty clothing and into something more comfortable. As others fetched warm water and rags to help clean him of the mud and muck before placing him into the bed. By the time the doctor arrived Jasper was cleaned up the best they could for now and the doctor checked over Jasper. “mmm” the doctor said calmly to himself as he got the scans and checked them. “He was lucky to be alive. What energy he had was from the lighting and what his body stored got him this far if you did not call me when you did he would more than likely died. The doctor gave him some meds to help him and to keep him stable for now.

“I should send him back to Starfleet with these injuries but I can’t guarantee if he would make it in one peace. So I will inform them of the Accident so that they can send there doctors and teams to help him in the crisis. The first 24 hours are critical. Be prepared for at least a team of three to arrive. May I use your Computer terminal.” the doctor asked. ” Of course this way doctor.” The woman replied quickly as she showed him where the terminal was located. “There you go, Doctor.” She said with a kind smile as she left him to make his call.

“Computer Open a channel to Star Fleet Head Quarters Medical division. Urgent Priority.” the computer beeped in compliance before it spoke “Working” as the call went out. Moments later a UFP symbol and Star fleet Symbol popped on screen. Moments later a female officer answered. “Nurse Rachet here How can I help?” the nurse said in a kind voice. “I am Doctor Stone out of Indore WV. I have one of your officers in my care at the moment. And he is in Critical condition. was struck by multiple lightning strikes. I need a team to come to care for him. He needs your state of the art care. Here are the readings I got from my tricorder. I know my machine is limited but its the best I have at the moment. ” As he placed the plastic looking card into the reader and tapped a few keys as the computer started making noises as it sent the data.

“Data received doctor!” Nurse rachet said calmly to him. “Stand by for emergency teams we have locked on your location and scanned for a safe area for beaming.” The nurse informed. “If that will be all. Beaming will commence shortly.” As the screen showed the Ufp symbol again by itself as the channel closed and a moment later the screen went dark.

Moments later familiar hum of a transporter beam was heard as the light started to fill the room. moments later the light subsided. The team was standing in front of him. “Follow me, Ladies and gentlemen. I am Dr. stone our patient is this way.” As he walked out of the Study and moved down the corridor to the Guest room again he is over there. I will leave Jasper in your hands.” as the doctor left. “Thank you, doctor!” Said the new doctor from Starfleet. As he moved over and started scanning the patient again with better equipment.

Jaspers vitals were very week but holding at the moment. As he finished off his scans and started iv solutions of fluids. As he set up monitors and other equipment for the care of Jasper. While the nurse and aides help finish off the medical needs. one aide, the nurse, and the doctor would stay to keep an eye on the officer as the Doctor used his communicator to send a message to Jaspers ship informing the captain what had happened. The doctor dealt with any outside appearing damage and repaired them with easy, The hair will have to wait more like needing a hair cut to fix the damage from the lighting created.

The doctor stayed in the rocking chair in the corner doing some side work as Jasper slept. As the aid and the nurse took time off and slept till it was there turn to keep an eye on the man.
