He didn't wait for a 'yes sir' before tapping his commbadge, opening a link to the CMO. "Chief, the ship has been boarded, and crew are going down. I'm ordering a force field around all sickbays, but I need you on the other side with as many medical and security officers as you need. Keep in touch."
SickbayLizzie listened to the com in horror. What she had feared was coming true.
Vaughan to Jyur. Received and understood. Out.
She turned to her exhausted staff.
"All you nurses stay here. Keep the patents stable but don't try anything not already prescribed unless instructed. Everyone else who is not ill, grab a med-kit and a phaser and join me outside."
"Yes Doctor." The staff replied.Picking up her own kit again before taking a phaser from the sickbay weapons locker, she headed out into the passageway. She was joined seconds later by the remains of her medical team.
Seconds after they exited, a forcefield appeared in front of the doors to Sickbay. Lizzie gave a curt not.
Computer. Location of the intruders?
She asked.
The Intruders are on deck 10. The computer responded.Turning to her team, she gave them a shark like smile.
"Lets find these intruders and send them back the way they came! I've never lost a ship yet and I'm not going to start now!" Her voice was as cold as ice. She tapped her com-badge again.
Vaughan to all security personnel. We have intruders on Deck 10. Meet my team at the section 2 Turbolift and we will fan out from there.
Lizzie led her small team of Techs to the Turbolift and took it to Deck 10 section 2.
Deck 10 Section 2The medical team were met there by a small contingent of security staff. They were all enlisted. She looked round and saw a Chief she knew quite well.
"Any chance of any more support Chief?" She asked.
"Not a good one Doc. Most of us have been hit by this damn bug. There may be a few more, but we should not count on it." The Chief reported."Right. Let's pair off. A Security person with a Med Tech. That way we stand the best chance to fight them off."
"You got it Doc!" The Chief replied.Lizzie looked at one of the younger crewman.
"You're with me!" She said, leaving no room for discussion.
The security crewman nodded and the two of them began to make their way down the corridor.
They had barely made it 25 meters when they were met by weapons fire.
"Can you see who or what they are?" Lizzie asked the crewman as they took cover and returned fire.
