Ensign Jacob Dillon: Nigel, drop the force field around me and Kyle and you, Seth and Bubba and we will get them to the Room where you have the med equipment you want to use.

Its not safe Jacob. How can I get that through to you?

*Through a fuzzy haze, Bubba hears someone call his name and tries to respond...*
S-Seth...? Is that you? Seth...are you there?
*Flailing out at the voice he hears, Bubba manages to poke Seth in the eye, along with each nostril and an ear...*

OUCH! Yes, yes its me! C'mon Bubba, wakey wakey buddy. We need your help to figure all this out.
He's coming around Nigel. And we have to try something. Maybe Jacob is right?

Seth...? How long has it been, buddy? The last I saw you was...well, wasn't it when they tossed us out of that diner back on Planet Gloob. You kept insisting that the space weevil they tried to serve us was canned, not fresh. But they didn't throw us out until you called the waiter's wife a....uh, what was it you called her?
*With the dizziness subsiding, Bubba is able to sit up and regain his composure. And the flow of blood, although still an issue, has been greatly slowed ..*
*Ahem* Oh, Seth. Thanks, I think...I think I'm okay now. So what's the latest on this mess...?
*After being brought up to speed, he tries to offer some suggestions...*
Alright, nothing seems to affect those boogers. Mr.C can slice them in two, but that just creates more. And his power reserves are depleted, so he can't fry even one of them. Beth...err, Ensign Lowel seems to be the only one able to kill the flippin' things. But look at her....she's losing the battle over there. If we don't do something, they're gonna take her down. I'm with Jake. There must be something in the arsenal that will work against them. But we need to help Ensign Lowel now! Maybe...
*An idea pops into Bubba's head...*
Maybe...look, this might be a dumb idea, but it's all I've got. Open up the fields around everyone. I'll use Mr.C to slice the creatures attacking Beth in two. The sections will be stunned for a few moments before they can re-form, and are able to attack again. We should have enough time before that happens to grab her and everyone else, and make it to the Med lab, then seal off this entire area. That way, everyone not infected will be inside the lab, and the creatures and infected crew will be trapped in here. Then you and Nigel can run more tests and figure out some way to help the infected. Jake and the rest of us can head for the armory for a VBG...
*Taking a deep breath, he continues...*
...A big problem is how do we handle the infected people without hurting them? We can't shoot them...or slice them in half. How can we get around them, and keep them safe...?

(after hearing Bubba's proposal)
Alright, everyone listen up. I have run out of ideas to do this and keep us safe at the same time. Doing as Jake and Bubba suggests is problematic but there doesn't seem to be any other choices.
Alright, everyone be ready. Jake, help me get Beth into the Lab. Seth,you and Kyle round up the other SST that aren't infected and we all make a run for the Lab.
Bubba, this depends on you know. Are you sure you are up for it?

I was born up for it, Nigel. Wait a minute....that didn't sound right. I'm ready, and as soon as you drop the fields, I'll slice the ones attacking Beth, then we can head for the lab. Okay...? But how are we gonna keep the infected crew off our backs?

*A loud shriek suddenly cuts through the room. As the group turns they see Ensign Lowel grimacing in pain, with several of the creatures clinging to her arm. With blood flowing rapidly from a gaping wound, she manages to throw off the beasts and move to the rear of the enclosure. Setting herself for the next attack, a dark, crimson pool slowly begins to grow beneath her feet...*

(As the fields are lowered, Jacob sees something on the wall that could be of some use to distract the Monsters) Ensign Jacob Dillon: Kyle, help get the Doctors and Beth to the Lab while I try to cut off the monsters and infected team mates as Bubba tries to work his magic! Ensign Kyle Robinson: RIGHT! (Jacob runs to the small hinged door by the exit to the Lab that says "Fire Extinguisher." He opens it and grabs what looks like a large knob with a hole in the middle of it. As he pulls it out, it is attached to a long hose. He pulls it with him as he runs towards the Monsters and the infected SST. Pulling a switch on the knob, it begins to blow out at a powerful rate, a cold soapy looking thick water and sprays it all over the Monsters and infected SST. The spray is so powerful that it knocks the SST on their butts and pushes them against the wall behind them, a good distance away from the retreating Doctors, Kyle and Beth) Ensign Jacob Dillon: (as the soapy substance begins to run dry) Alright Bubba, the fire extinguisher gave us some time. NOW GO FOR IT! |

*With a quick nod to Ensign Dillon, Bubba sets his part of the plan in motion...*
Ahh, that never gets old. Always have loved that sound...
*The soft whirling noise accompanying Mr.C as the blade cuts through the air is a pleasant reminder of the longstanding bond that has united the two. With the cue from Jake, Bubba releases the cleaver in a wide arc toward the mass surrounding Ensign Lowel. The results are almost instantaneous: the horde of creatures once surrounding Beth now lay flopping on the deck, having been severed in two by the sharp blade. After a few twitches and grotesque spasms, all movement stops. And with the completion its assignment, Mr.C continues along the arc with the same soft sound, finally coming to rest back in Bubba's hands.*
Okay...that should give us some time, but not much. Whatever we're gonna do, we'd better do it now...

Kyle, go to the door and watch for the others to get here. We need to let them in and close the door behind the immediately or sooner!

*With a furious rush, the crew scrambles into the open lab thanks to the quick thinking of Ensign Dillon. Bubba and several others race back onto platform to help the more seriously injured move to safety.*
C'mon, Bubba! That foam isn't going to last much longer! Here, buddy...grab my hand!
*Scooping up one of the injured, they move toward the lab...at the same time one of the creatures emerges from the foam directly behind the two...*

Lay Beth down on the Exam table easy Ensign Robinson. She's been through enough, we don't need any injuries do to handling.
Seth, start an IV. I suspect with all she is going through, she needs some vital fluids by now!

Holy crap, Greg...let's get out of here! Lean on me and we can both make it!
*Lt. Boma and Bubba do their best to put some distance between themselves and the creature as they race toward the Med bay. And even though the lieutenant's injury slows their escape, the doorway to the lab is almost within reach. But as they are about to make it to safety, another creature suddenly squirms out from under the foam, effectively blocking their path.*
Son of a...you've gotta be kidding! When are we gonna catch a flippin' break!
*With the exit now blocked, the two look for some cover and quickly dive beneath the mounds of foam laid down by Ensign Dillon's extinguisher, hopefully buying a little extra time...*

Greg, I think we're okay for now. Have you got anything in your kit that we can use to stay hidden and get closer to the exit?

(reaching into his side pack around his belt, he pulls out his small phaser) Lt. Gregory Boma: Bubba (out of breath) here. (handing him the phaser after he flips the overload switch) Throw this into the foam near the creature. Its on overload and is going to be a very nasty blast in about a minute. So don't waste anytime! (his eyes begin to roll as if he is going to pass out) Attachments:

Fluids started Nigel. She is massively dehydrated. And we all probably will be before this is all over.
Nigel, I've been thinking about a way to extract the creature fibers from the infected body. But its going to require the use of the transporter system. You game?

Post by Nurse Seth Mitchell on Nov 11, 2020 12:56:39 GMT -5
Well, its been done before so we know it works. Why not transport anyone infected by the creature and strain the creature fibers out of their transport patterns? The transporter buffers have everyone's original patterns down to their molecular level. The fibers could be transported elsewhere.
