Dr. Deborah Reed blinked as her eyes opened, and struggled to focus. She realized the blurriness of the console of her shuttle was due to it being inches from her face, and felt hands on her shoulders pulling her back up into her seat. For a fleeting moment, as the ringing in her ears was still subsiding, she thought the youthful voice addressing her might be her estranged beau Justin Grey, at last returned from whereever he was. But reality settled in quickly as the banter of one Orderly Dyson finally came in loud and clear.

"Sheesh....I hope its not me! I'm talking here while we're waiting for this guy to respond....I mean really, he sends a distress call and gets not only two Team Orion 'bots but the best and brightest the medlabs have to offer, namely us, and he keeps us waiting! Which is fine because as small as this shuttle is the medlabs were really cramping my style....that old teacher of yours really creeps me out sometimes. What the heck planet is Doc Antony from anyway, right? Sometimes I wonder if every doctor you're close to is an evil monkey or....what? What's with the look? Too soon? Sorry....here, put this cloth on your forehead...I'm going to help a patient as long as I'm out here, and you're closer than our silent friend right now."

Deb sighed and took the cloth. Tim Dyson was actually a good orderly and a decent fellow; he just didn't know when to shut up. She hadn't been sleeping well lately and his endless prattle must have been what blasted made her lose consciousness.

She scowled at her own growing irritability and hoped that was all it was...
