[Jaclyn Smith]

Day: 03

Stardate: 2445.12.03

(USS Exeter – Sickbay - Lt Jg Greta Smith  & Lt Ire Williams – 0129)

Walking into sickbay,  Greta took a moment and looked around. The aftermath
of something terrible was evident. Medical personnel working to save one of
their own whilst the others dealt with the various injuries and other
problems that had come from the terrible events.

Then, she saw him. Ire. By himself with what appeared to be a weight on his
shoulders. Her heart ached for him. Walking slowly towards him, not wanting
to surprise him, she stood a little way from him and said, soft, "Hey."

“Hay.”

"Ire… "

“Yes.”

Taking a step closer, she knew that her nerves were showing, "Ire… I….
Don’t know what to do."

He paused as he looked up at her.

“About what Greta?”

"How to..  help you. Ire…" she took another step towards him.

“I will be okay.”

She bit her lip, a trait she had always had when she was nervous. "Ire…
what can I do? Tell me what you need from me and I'll do it. You know that."

He saw the flash of murdered Greta superimposed onto real Greta.

“You can’t do anything for me Greta.”

Taking a shaky breath, "I can be there for you…"

“I need to be on my own.”

Closing her eyes, she nodded and looked down, "Come home… please."

He saw “Greta’s” smerk appear on Greta’s face.

“I cannot. I need to be on my own.”

She looked at him, tears in her eyes and nodded. Speaking softly, she said,
"I'll be there. You know that. " Pausing for a moment, she looked at him
and raised a hand towards him as if to touch his shoulder and stopped. Her
hand dropped to her side as she nodded, "I should go…"

He saw the blood on Greta’s chest where the dagger was and the trickle of
blood on her face as she spoke to him.

“Okay.”

She turned away from him, wiping her eyes a little. After a second, she
turned back, looked at him and said, "whatever it is, whatever happened,  I
will be here. I… love you."

“Okay.”

Taking a breath, Greta walked away. Away from the man she loved deeply
because she didn't know what else to do. Walking around a corner in
sickbay, she stopped, calmed her breathing and fixed a determined look on
her face and headed towards where she knew Ravok would be.
