Chapter 11 Chapter Text
They attached the device to the ceiling and was busy talking that they didn't notice the fine issues and cracks begin to form. They spread quickly like a spider's web from the drill all the way where Dr. Elders was standing at the far end of the cave. Dr. Elders was beginning to think crazy thoughts in his mind hating to be here.
He spit some of the dust that was going into his lungs, and tried to get rid of the taste of copper and blood as he cough.
Thinking could transporters beam through rock like this? They must be able to. There was that one planet nine months back, where the landing party took shelter from a tornado in some caves, and they were able to beam out just fine. That rock was thick too.
Dr. Elders tried to shift his body into a more comfortable position watching Savin with his device.
Once Savin was done placing the samples into his survey bag, they were ready to move on.
While Lt. Roberts was making an observation having heard a noise up ahead of the cave. He blinked blurry eyes at the landing party moving closer, they saw a body on the cold ground not moving. Lt. Roberts and the landing moved over to see who it was. Lt. Eric Roberts turned over the body to see it was a Romulan. Lt. Roberts knelt down to see if he was still alive using his medical scanner that was given to him by Dr. Elders.
He was running his fingers over the Romulan's skin gently. Watching the muscles shift. "He's still alive." Lt. Roberts pointed out. "Marie, do me a favor see if your communicator can contact the Captain having found some one, Dr. Elders will be able to see just how bad he's actually hurt.
" Yes, Eric." She takes the torch with her to see where she was going. It was a good sign there were no cave men around in the cave.
"Captain, this is Marie, I am on the way back to you...Static...Then crackle...Can you hear me I am boosting my signal to ascertain my position."
Cave exploration it was. "I can hear you better now, we're on our way to your position Marie, and figure out who just the Romulan is that was found."
"Very well Captain, see you soon." He could sense the tension in her voice at the moment.
William looked at Savin and Dr. Elders. "Lets get moving quickly gentlemen."
