[Waiting Room]

[Waiting Room]-Dr. Rachael Ezekiel]

Rachael turned back to Natasha, "Of course I can make arrangements for you to take a look at the ship. I can insist you are one on the team that helps salvage it. Oh man that is now another thing on my list of things to do, this list just keeps getting longer and longer. A few more days in here and I will have enough to do for the next month."

"Really? Wow. I love you, Rachael." She said enthusiasticly about seeing the Alarius up close. She stood and hugged Rachael. Natasha's happiness with the reply she had just received could not be measured. It was like that talk, though short, with Rachael eliminated the fears she had about getting caught doing something geeky. "I know what you mean, so I'll be a good girl and take you back in so you can rest well and heal faster. Don't overdo it, Rachael. Remember the more you disobey the MDs, longer it'll take for you to get released. Sometimes being a good girl is the best police for yourself. Not to mention you'll work a lot better and faster if fully healed too." She said after letting go of the hug, standing up in front of Rachael and then going behind the wheelchair to push her friend back to the Med Bay.

She than went back to what they were originally talking about, "I know the back ups won't last forever, but for right now they are better than nothing. I am optimistic that the main generators aren't damaged to bad. The outer casing is a trinium? alloy, so it can withstand alot. Hopefully it won't take them more than two days to get the room cleared out. I mean once that is done my work will go pretty fast."

"Let's hope you're right. I don't like the dark, especially under the earth." She said joking, but a little hint of fear could be heard in her voice. The generators have to be OK. It was all she could think for a few seconds.

She looked at Natasha again, "Yeah I think our ten minutes are up, actually I think they were up a while ago, but I think Dr. Steele knew I needed to talk with someone. I will hold you to everything you said, though. You can do the same to me too."

"I agree and you can call on me if I forget, which won't happen." She said pushing the wheelchair back into the Med Bay.

Rachael hugged her back after her out burst,"I promise I will be a good girl, so I can get out of here." Rachael said, with honesty in her voice.

"Don't worry about the generators, we designed them to with stand alot," Rachael said, trying to reassure her friend. "I promise I will do whatever I have to do to get them fixed."

Natasha pushed her back into the med bay and up to her empty bed, Rachael was able to stand up with no problem but required a little help in getting back into the bed. She reached out and gave Natasha a hug, "Thanks for coming and talking with me, even if it was only for a little while I really needed it."

Rachael hugged her back after her out burst,"I promise I will be a good girl, so I can get out of here." Rachael said, with honesty in her voice.

"That's what you want the most. I can tell." Natasha said with a smile Rachael couldn't see, pushing the wheelchair through the corridors back to the Med Bay.

"Don't worry about the generators, we designed them to with stand alot," Rachael said, trying to reassure her friend. "I promise I will do whatever I have to do to get them fixed."

"Ok. Not worried anymore." She said lying to Rachael. It scared her bad, but she decided to forget about it for now.

Natasha pushed her back into the med bay and up to her empty bed, Rachael was able to stand up with no problem but required a little help in getting back into the bed. She reached out and gave Natasha a hug, "Thanks for coming and talking with me, even if it was only for a little while I really needed it."

Natasha helped Rachael back into her bed, then returned her hug with a cativating smile. "I always thought it was what friends are for. You know, giving us a hand when we're feeling down or worried." She said holding one of Rachael's hands. Then she stood up from her bed and looked down to Rachael again, a sad expression filled her face as she spoke. "I'm sorry, but I have to leave now, even because I need a shower as you might have noticed by now. The thing is that.... remember what I told you?....when I go, you'll be as you were when I arrived." She said beginning to withdraw the empathic effect she was causing inside the Med Bay, as she felt their pain returning, she just said dryly because she just wanted to run from inside there. "By Rachael... By guys... I'll be back to see you." She said waving to Rachael and the ones around her bed who were there before they had left and walked out of the infirmary in a fast pace.

[Med Bay]

Rachael shook her head yes in understanding to what Natasha, "I understand, I can already feel the effects slightly."

"Bye Natasha..." Rachael said as she watched her friend walk out of the room, she could begin to feel the effects of her head injury again. After she was gone out of the way, Rachael drew her knees up to her chest and laid her head on them.

Dr. Steele then walked up to Rachael and pulled the curtain back, "You need to rest now, I am afraid you may have over exerted yourself."

Rachael lifted her haed up, "Alright, but first can you take these stitches out." She asked pointing to her head.

"Yes, I will be right back." Dr. Steele left for a second then came back with a tray. "Alright just hold still," she got out a pair of scissors, and got off the stitches. "It looks really good I don't think you will get a scar. Now I want you to rest, if it gets to loud in here I can move you to the head trama ward."

Rachael started to lay back down on the bed, "I think I will be fine, but can i get some medicine for my head?"

"Yes I will put some in your ivy, along with a light sedative," Dr. Steele moved over to a medicine cabinet and got out too bottles, and put them into Rachael IV. "Good night," She said softely to her, than smiled.

Rachael closed her eyes as she watched the meds being put in her IV, with in minutes she was asleep. Dreaming. Through out her dream she would mumble words in ancient.

[Med Bay-Capt. Carol "CJ" Johannson-NPC]

<<From Science Lab>>

CJ entered the infirmary about an hour after she had left to write her report. She spotted Dr. Ezekiel back in her own bed and approached the other woman. Once she realized that the Doctor was asleep, she placed the envelope containing the report on the Alarius on her bedside table with a note attached.

Here's the report you wanted Ma'am. Let me know if you have any questions. Capt. Carol Johannson

She then quietly excused herself from the infirmary and headed for the mess hall.

[Iso. room 2-Dr. Sujie Kinagi-NPC]

"I gave her a brief update on your condition," Sujie said than looks at the General, "If you think are up for it sir, I will allow her in for a few minutes, no loner than ten though." The General nodded.

She than walked out of the door, "Colonel, you can speak with the General, but keep it short no longer than ten minutes. I don't want him to over do it. Not until Dr. Aaronson clears him completely."

Kelea walked into the general's room. "Sir, Colonel Kelea reporting Sir." She said in a profesional view.

[Vampyr]

"Doctor, I'm doing my best to help Kylie, but stone-walling me by just allowing ten minutes isn't helping. Thirty minutes, an hour, that's all I'm asking." Closing his eyes and sighing, Devin told Steele, "Her mental state stems partly from the past and partly from me. From I've been told, the latter is something that happens to everyone who cares for her enough, nightmares, they're nightmares from her past. An abusive step-father if you must know. I won't go into detail of the dreams, but I can tell you that I can help her if you allow me."

[Gen Blue]

Kelea walked into the general's room. "Sir, Colonel Kelea reporting Sir." She said in a profesional view.

[ Iso room #2 ]

"Lee," Nick untangled his ankles and hopped off the bed. With only a tiny sidestep to catch his balance, he went to his friend and took her hands, "It's good to see you again, Lady. Drop the 'sir', would you? It's not that bad. Reports of my ..."
"Demise," Cal interjected.
He poked an elbow into Cal's side. "I was going to say partnership ... were greatly exaggerated."

[JacksonMiracle]

[Outside Recovery Rooms-Dr. Julianna Steele-NPC]

Julianna considered Devin's words in silence for a long moment before responding. She sighed deeply, choosing to be completely honest with the scientist. "Please try to understand the position that I'm in here. Dr. Aaronson is the CMO of this base, and as such he has the ultimate say so in visiting privelages for patients. I can only speak for my personal medical training and knowledge. I can't speak for Dr. Aarsonson or his medical training." She rubbed her forehead with one hand before continuing. "This isn't easy for me Devin. If I allow you to stay with Kylie for an extended period of time, then I risk going against what Dr. Aaronson would prefer. At the same time, I can emphasize with you. I want to see Kylie overcome these nightmares as much as you do. And I know that it takes more time than what I can allow at the moment. I'll talk to Dr. Aaronson and see if we can't work something out. But in the mean time, try to find something else to do to stay occupied. Don't become so consumed with worry over Kylie that you can't do anything else. I'll let you know what he decides. Either way, you'll probably be allowed to see her at least for a few minutes tomorrow and it would be wise to make the most of whatever time you're allowed." She rubbed her forehead again and slowly spoke. "Is Jaa'nik able to be 100% sure, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that at least your internal system is free of germs? And I mean, any and all germs."

[JacksonMiracle]

[Recovery Room 1]

Kylie started at the ceiling, not really sure how she was feeling at the moment, but not trusting herself to fall asleep again. Her mind started to focus on the language of P8T-113. The sooner she figured it out, the sooner she could start a new project. She just couldn't stop thinking about the translation as hard as she may try. She smiled to herself remembering Devin's encouragement. She fingered his pendent and considered all the work she was eager to start. She would have plenty of desk time while her leg was healing. There was so much work to be done, and not nearly enough time it seemed.

[Vampyr]

"Both Jaa'nik and I are sure that this body is bug free. So unless the Goa'uld have invented some sort of nano-bot in the past few days that's immune to a symbiote's healing powers..." Devin's voice trailed off, "Stay occupied? I have nothing to do, no projects, no scientific magic to work, and there isn't any way in hell I'm heading back down there to help with the repairs. So if you have anything to suggest, I'd be more than happy to hear it."

[JacksonMiracle]

[Hall ouside recovery rooms-Dr. Julianna Steele-NPC]

The doctor gave Devin a small smile. "Well now that you mention it.....I know science is a very broad field and you may have no idea how to help, but there's a couple of moniters in storage that need to be fixed up. They haven't worked for a while, and I keep requesting for someone to come look at them, but other things have been more important. It's some kind of technical thing, but that falls under science, so if you wouldn't mind taking a look..." She paused a second to judge his reaction. "We would appreciate it. There aren't nearly enough working moniters in this infirmary."

[Vampyr]

"Finally." Devin said, looking at Steele as if she were a godsend, "Something constructive I can do. Now, any specific problems, or do you just want me to do some fiddling around with 'em? And on that thread, where are these monitors?"

[JacksonMiracle]

[Hall outside recovery rooms-Dr. Julianna Steele-NPC]

"There's a medical storage room on sub-level 9, thankfully not in the same area as the Earthquake damage. When you enter the room, the moniters should be along the wall just in front of you. You might have to move some things to get to them. And feel free to just tinker with them, you're the expert, so I trust that you won't break them beyond repair." The doctor gave the eager scientist an encouraging smile. "While you're doing that, I promise I'll talk to Dr. Aaronson for you."

[Vampyr]

"Thanks. And tell Kylie I'll be back as soon as Tok'ra-ly possible." Heading towards the eleavtor, he muttered, "So long for now Ky."

((So... short... Unable to write...))

<To Sub-level 9>

[Dr. Julianna Steele-NPC]

Julianna sighed as Devin headed for the elevator. She leaned up against the wall just long enough to catch her breath. Between Devin and Kylie and Dr. Ezekiel, this day just keeps getting better. I have no idea how Dr. Aaronson handles it all. And he has the general to worry about right now too. Well, I did promise to talk to him, I might as well go ahead and get it over with. She started to walk toward Dr. Aaronson's office to look for him.

[Planetary_Alliance]

"How exaderated?" Kelea asked moving towards a pair of chairs and helping the general down. "You don't know how woried I was. Espicaly If it turned out that the symbiot was a gou'ld."

[Gen Blue]

[ Iso room #2 ]

"Lee," Nick untangled his ankles and hopped off the bed. With only a tiny sidestep to catch his balance, he went to his friend and took her hands, "It's good to see you again, Lady. Drop the 'sir', would you? It's not that bad. Reports of my ..."
"Demise," Cal interjected.
He poked an elbow into Cal's side. "I was going to say partnership ... were greatly exaggerated."

"How exaggerated?" Kelea asked moving towards a pair of chairs and helping the general down. "You don't know how worried I was. Especially if it turned out that the symbiote was a goa'uld."

"Exaggerated in that Janus is NOT a Goa'uld." Nick leaned back, "Trust me on this, I was worried for a while. But, do you know of any Goa'uld who would voluntarily leave a healthy host?"
He pointed toward the forlorn little figure floating in the tank, "He did. With no guarantee that we would find him another host."

[Planetary_Alliance]

"Is there a willing host here on base willing to take him?" Kelea asked her mind working on something that even supprized her she was working on.

[Gen Blue]

[ Iso Room #2 ]

"Welllll," Blue said slowly as he shifted in his chair.
"You are NOT thinking of taking that ... snake back," Callista burst out, appalled at the idea.
"Ummmmmm," the man couldn't look her in the face, "Yes, I am."
Cal made an inarticulate noise and stomped out of the room, not quite slamming the door.
