(*shreaks and runs away *It's hoottttt))
" I don't beleive my contract said anything about surviving for four weeks alone in a hell hole infected by cratures" she muttered, but she did put her gun away slowly. Her eyes still on him.
"And as long as he keeps away from me, I don't intend on pulling my gun on him again. But if he keeps pushing to be buddy buddy and as close to me as possiable... I'll shoot him " she said looking at the captin finally. She ment it. All she wanted was for his infected self to keep as far from her as possaiable.
"Fair enough Captin?" she said as she leaned heavly aginst the wall. She was still white as a ghost, and her form still trembled slightly. She'd jsut waisted any recouperation that bit of sleep had gotten her. She slid down the wall to sit on the floor. Suprised to hear the other girls' voice speak up. She looked at the other Cathran and let out a faint mewl towards him. just sor tof a weak greeting

"Captain, I hate to go against orders, but I agree with Mio. Aleron's information could be vital. Not only that but, according to Gin, if Aleron is infected, even just an hour or two spent in sick-bay could mean we lose the information. Besides, I have everything I need in my Med-kit as long as nothing seri--she's awake," the last part was said quietly and suddenly as her pointed ears twitched at the woman's voice, turning to look at her.
"Hey, don't worry. You're safe here. You're on a different ship now, we've come to help. Can you remember your name?" she spoke calmly and professionally, trying to prevent any freak-outs. The question at the end was a standard question to ensure that the long time unconscious hadn't messed with her memory.

Aleron nodded. "Captain, I'm fully with the others. The sooner I can relay my findings the sooner we can mount a better defense." he said, going by the girl, watching her. He wondered if she'd remember him saving her..."And captain, I'm fine. I'm not infected with anything. Not from this ship, at least." he said, shooting a look to Gin and Miya. "I can debrief immediately. And, in fact, this girl will be a perfect example."

Well, hell, Aurora was finding herself outvoted. Not that it mattered much. This was the military, not a democracy. It was the assurance from the Doctor that her Lieutenant would be ok enough to proceed that cinched it for her. "I know very well what it is, Lieutenant. I read your file, remember?" she states. She looks over at Gin. "You and I are going to have a talk," she promises. It was firm, but not a threat. The tone she uses with Aleron, though, is a little firmer. "I believe you're overdue for a chat with me, as well, she says. Just as soon as we have a chance... She turns to the survivor. "Welcome to the G.R.S.S. Walkurst," she says, gently. She turns to Aleron. "Is it really neccesary to disturb her like that? I feel she should be taken back to Sickbay, now that she's woken. With the Dr. to watch her, of course." She turns to Miya. I suppose it's your call, Doctor."

Sonja's eyes try to focus on those present, but everything was bright, colored blurs to her currently. "The G.R.S. sent a rescue team...?" she asks weakly, then realizes the question that Miya has asked her and says, "My name is...Sonja Grisholt, Junior Mining Operations Foreman..."
Mio smiles and mewls back softly to Gin before going over and raiding the fresh-brewed coffee. From a pocket in his shipsuit, he produces some sweetener, part of his personal store, and dumps some into the coffee before drinking it. He was addicted to the caffeine in it and could get quite cross if he couldn't get any, but there were far worse things to be addicted to. Settling on one of the available surfaces, he waits to here Aleron's debriefing and watches the survivor.

Gin waved her hand in a yes yes, kind of way. Military order and stuff had gone out the window weeks ago for her. It was every man for himself. But she was willing to listen to her, as long as the bitten one kept away from her.
She let her head hang down a bit exausted, the responce mewl made her smile faintly. Felt good to hear somone else speak her native toung. Mmm.. tounge.. sounded good.. lightly flourd and fried an.. wait..back to the present. She blinked fuzzly.
"One of the mining team?" she asked lifint her head. She thought they had all been stranded or killed from the infection? Curiously she peered trying to get a bette rlook at the woman. Had she treated her for anything at all?
((Time for me to get off guys.. I'm sorry!!! I'll be back on in a few hours))

Shooting a glance at Aleron, she said calmly, "I'm just being cautious...better safe than sorry, ya know? And, Aleron...you are not permitted to touch her. After what she's been through, you can at least give her some rest..."
Turning to the Captain, she shook her head at the suggestion of sick-bay. "I have enough supplies for just about anything, Captain, and I want to hear Aleron's debriefing. I say that everyone should just stay here."
When done with that, she looked to the survivor. "I'm Dr. Miyabita Kubotamari, just call me Miya, and I've been taking care of you since we rescued you. How are you feeling, Sonja? Do you hurt anywhere or feel funny in anyway?" The half-elf avoided looking at the hole left by the spar, hoping that the woman wouldn't find out about it yet if it wasn't hurting her any.

((Night Ukaia))
Aleron sighed. Railed by the captain and now Miya? This was going to be a loooong mission. "Yessir." he said to the captain before looking to the patient. "I didn't say I needed to. Worry not, Miya." he said, not giving any response to the glance and comment. It didn't bother him. In fact, knowing that at least the captain knew he wasn't infected and it was just his condition was a hell of a relief. "And I'm 2nd Lt. Aleron Reve. I saved you from the ship's remains and helped you here." he said, after Miya had asked her questions. Might was well throw out who he was before she panicked and thought he was going to dissect her or something...

Misha would watch both Gin and aleron, she couldn't say that she liked Aleron but Gin had a point and so did the Captain, " Captain with your permission I'd like to keep the dear Ms. Gin with me simply because most often me and Aleron don't cross paths. Just o keep friction down, Also I forgot to inform you that I placed the rivet gun in the armory incase it needs to be used for anything." Misha's voice was calm and even toned and her eyes were hard almost cold but she had remained silent and her statements and questions were almost completely off topic, but she was obviously trying to get the mood a bit more even. Misha would watch Aleron a moment and then look at the Captain, "Captain..." her voice would a belost in thought for a moment, "I would also like permission to get back to the mining storage and see what I can find from the mining logs that I'm sure are there, if they aren't there then they may be in the main computer since we are of course suppose to be collecting information maybe they have logs about this 'infection' or what was brought up before the first person was infected." Oddly Misha was being respectful and even following the chain of command, something was bugging her and any who had even a guess at her normal temperment would be wondering about her at this moment...

Aurora rubs her temples. "Yes, perhaps that would be best, for now..." she agrees with Misha. "And I have every intention of going back in there. But not now and you are not to go alone. Understood? First, let's see what the Lieutenant has for us. Proceed, Lieutenant." She casts a glance at Gin and adds in a quiet voice, before he starts, though. "If you wish to go get some rest, go ahead, Mrs. Namida." If Aurora noticed Misha's trepidation, she waoud assume it had something to do with the logs.

Aleron stood, moving to the center of the mess-room as he hit the lights. He set down the small plastic device and stood, holding a sort of laser-pointer slash remote. The device opened up like a small turret and protected detailed, holographic imagery, both in data and images. "Now...I've run numerous tests on that goo, first. It seems to be some sort of hypermutatious-biomatter resembling a sort of fungi or mold substance that's deffenently a foreign codex, must less 'creature', not to mention it's bio-structural compound is almost entirely unlike anything else I've ever seen, which would basically cover every plant and microorganism known to man, and more.' he explained, as if whatever the hell he just said was perfect, understandable english. Though...the looks said otherwise. "Um...It's a mutant-goo that's almost unlike anything else in existence, we have found a new 'mold'." he said simply, his tone perfectly informative, like a teacher. He wasn't at all annoyed or bothered by having to 'dumb it down'.
He turned to the images and pointed the laser at the image and it spread into multiple ones, each a different magnification from normal, all the way down to atomic. On the side was a scan running data and was seeming to be trying to match the data with other data. "Now, as you can see, there's almost nothing in my complete database of something like this. Now, I'm sure you've heard me say 'almost' about 4 times now. That's because...it's close to this;" he said as the scan beeped and showed a strand that was...sort of close. "Now...it doesn't look much the same like this, but one must remember that a human is only 1% different then a dolphin in DNA, and we're very much un-dolphin-y, to use a simple term. Zooming out..." he said, as the images did just that, bringing up both images to a large scale. "On the left is the base, known plant at it's Atomic level. On the right is the 'goo', at it's quantum level. This means they match, but on totally different planes. This 'goo', which I've named 'Verus Primeval', which is latin for 'True First', basiclly. This oooze seems to be far more sophisticated at a lower level then it's shared 'brother' at a higher one. Upon going over more research, I learned that it matches multiple other samples, all at different levels. So one could, in fact, state that one could form any type of plant from any planet, supported only by the Verus Primeval until full growth, where normal care-taking would be required." He explained again. "Basically, this is super-goo that can grow any kind of plant someone wants with the right kind of chemical. In this case, it's taken after a sort of 'mold' that's natural to the residue that builds up on un-dried steel, what this entire place is basically made of, and something else that it's been exposed to. What that something else is, though, can't be determined. From the Verus Primeval! He said, turning back to the images.
Now images came up of odd-looking materials. He pointed to each. "Skin samples, teeth, and multi-fluid samples from the Quiritatio, or Shriek, and the Capto, or 'to grab' aka the Grabbers." He explained, then the images shifted, streaming more data and showing images of magnification and such, lines crossing all over each other between the images. "Now...I've been able to ID traits of these creatures and similarities, which are as follows; Whatever caused these things to mutate is exactly what caused the Verus Primeval to mutate as it did. What that agent is, though, is exactly what I'm missing. Other then that, the hosts that are infected are, in every sense, dead. They don't think, they don't have memories, they are souly puppets used by the parasitic pathogen causing the infection. For instance, if you know the guy, too bad. He will NOT hesitate to eat you, and he will not talk to you. The body is utterly empty and dead, used so the infection can move in search of more hosts, or food. Whether it wants to spread to keep itself alive or if it desires food, I can't determine until I study the bodies themselves. Long story short, they're really really bad, in no way human, so don't hesitate, because they sure won't. Also, whatever made the people creatures also makes the goo, so do NOT, I repeat, do NOT under ANY circumstances eat, drink, or touch ANYTHING in this area unless it's from the ship. If we find anything outside and bring it in, I need to do a VERY careful scan and check of it to make sure it doesn't spread into our ship here. That means, Misha, I'd like to look over the Rivet Gun for any infection, if that's alright. And if you're worried, I know how to work with weapons, and I'm sure Mio can help me with anything I don't know." he assured her before turning back to the images again.
"And finally, 'infection'." he said, looking at each and every member pointedly. "The chances of bites being the method of spreading are extreamly slim. It's much more likely that we are, in fact, all minor infected because it's in the air due to the goo that's growing as mold around the station in the air-vents. However, I think it may be extended exposure to that and some...other catalyst that seems to...super-speed the spread in the body. Again, as for what that is, I don't know yet."
"Now, I'll make my current final analysis, requests of all of you, and then take any comments, questions, and concerns, which I do kindly as you all save for when I say it is alright to do so, if that's alright, captain?" he asked, looking to her.
((Well that was fun..XDD I enjoyed that. Hope it's all ok w/you Issac...))

((Oh, it's wonderfully delicious, Lyric, especially the parts that Aleron think is true but aren't. Though, not thinking it's such a good idea to use term quantum level; far too much uncertainty there that gets skewed by observation, and the fact that structures at that level are what gives things on the atomic level their shape.))
Aurora's eyes look glazed over at all the to-technical jargon. "Just get to the point, Lieutenant, and try to remember some of us don't have fancy degrees," she says, motioning him to continue.
Mio scratches idly at one of his ears while listening to to Aleron, having no trouble whatsoever following the entire spiel. He looks like he wanted to say something, but waits for Aleron to finish.
