Tate nodded and stepped to the side to make the call to EMS, calling for immediate medical attention, giving the address and the apartment number.

It looked like someone had rummaged through the place, as if they were looking for something. with drawers were left open and cushions overturned. But there were broken items too, especially around where Jones was lying on the floor. He was in the open space between the bedroom and living area, with his head towards the bedroom.

Jones himself was lying on his back with his eyes closed and it was clear he had been in a fight with someone. There were obvious contusions on his face and also on his right hand. He was not moving and it did not seem like he was breathing.

Outside in the hall, a part of Jean already knew. She didn’t hear Dash’s voice and that sickening feeling hadn’t left her. She leaned against the wall near his door and closed her eyes, trying to steady herself.

The next thing Timothy did, was to go over and check the pulse of Dash. He walked over to the body and carefully put his fingers on the downed person to check their pulse. He wanted to confirm what he believed was going on.

There was no pulse.

Tim was afraid there would have been no pulse but wanted to confirm. With the information he had gathered by the lack of pulse and the state of the apartment, Tim believed calling the police to handle this matter would be the best method to move forward. He then tapped his comm and said =/\=Star-fleet security officer Murdoch to the Police, I believe there has been a homicide at the Jones’s residents. Please send a team to do the investigation please. I have confirmed that Dash Jones has no pulse and the apartment is in much disarray. =/\=. After contacting the authorities, Tim stepped back out of the office and addressed Jean, “I am sorry to let you know but Dash Jones has passed. I am not going to be able to let you enter the apartment at this time. But I thought it would be best to let you know.” He then stated to Tate, “I have contacted the authorities to come and investigate. Thank you for alerting the EMTs. We will have to let them take over once they are here. I am going to stand at the entrance of the apartment until the Police are present to take over the scene.” He knew a major reaction was coming from Jean but keeping everyone away from the possible crime scene was extremely important. He was prepared for the worse out of Jean.

Security Officer

Tate nodded quietly, mindful of the delicate situation.

Jeanette Mathis, Ambassador to the Federation stared at Murdoch with intense pale blue eyes and a sense of resignation. “I’ll believe it when a medical professional has confirmed it,” she said simply and went back to leaning against the wall, a sentinel for the man who had been at her side for eight amazing and complicated years.

A pair of medics appeared in a swirl of lights outside the building. They showed their creditials and were escorted up. An ambulance shuttle was only a minute or so behind them. They stepped off the lift and looked around, spotted Murdoch and addressed him. “Can you take us to the patient?” They were unaware as of yet that Murdoch had discovered a dead individual and not an injured/sick one.

Mathis turned her head to take in the medics and suddenly things were feeling real. Or maybe sureal? she wasn’t sure how to describe the sensations in her body. Taking a deep breath, she pulled out her comm unit and called Ren. The voice of her dearest was calm and soothing, though Jeanette could hear the worry in their voice. Those around her got one side of the conversation due to the earpiece she wore. “There’s inside and the medics have arrived… No, I don’t think so. Murdoch said as much too. I’m waiting for confirmation but I think you should call Dasca back. Either way, it’s not good… mmmhmmm. Yes. Call me after you talk to her. Love you too.”

With a deep sigh, Mathis closed her eyes and continued her vigil at the door.
