"OW! That so totally hurts!" -- Charles Xavier

The battle against the Ohm raged on, and the casualties on the ground were mounting. Injured crew members got emergency treatment in the field, which largely amounted to patching them up so they wouldn't die sometime within the next fifteen minutes. After that, they were quickly picked up by shuttle and brought back to the ship, where they were sent to a medbay that was getting progressively more crowded.

The situation was growing increasingly dire, to the point that Stacy activated one of the AI's to help out.



"Please state the nature of the medical emergency."

"That's what I say to myself, and have to remind myself," Katara admitted. "It really wasn't easy, finding out we have a Yeerk on the ship. Brought back a lot of bad memories, ones from my world and the whole way people reacted to me going after it. I can't blame them, but it was far from one of my favorite times on the ship. When Jake talked about what happened to his brother, it definitely bothered me."

In more ways than one.

"I can do better than that," Katara said, and brought her pouch out. "Waterbender, remember, and we happen to be surrounded by water." She brought the water from her pouch out and had Jamie cup his hands, then moved her own in a circular motion. A minute later his hands were clean, but the water she used was not. She brought it back into the pouch, but it wasn't going to stay long, not when she had to heal others with the same water. She'd replace it in a minute.

"Better?"

"Thank ye," Jamie replies tiredly, and this time he does rub at the bridge of his nose. He closes his eyes for a moment while he does so, then lets them open again. While he's grateful that Katara was there to help him, he is still quite worn out, and is starting to feel less like talking.

"Katara?" he asks, managing a small smile for her. "If ye don't mind, I think I'd just like to rest a wee bit until they can look at my head. Besides, I've probably kept ye long enough as it is."

Katara smiled. "Hey, I was glad to help. But you are right: there are other people that probably need my help. I'll go see if you;re okay later. Rest well, Jamie."

And with that, she started her rounds on looking for more injured.
