== Ensign Howard Mortimer - Security NRC ==
The more Mortimer attempted to remove K'Deela's armour, the more the security officer began to realise that it was a bad idea, before he saw Ostberg silently tell him to stop. His friend had suffered greatly, which seemed to fuel Howard's anger, which he needed to channel into completing the rest of the mission. Howard nodded his understanding, removing his bloodied hands away from his friend's damaged body, absentmindedly wiping them as best he could as the Doctor contacted the ship for an emergency beam out. He knew that K'Deela would be in good hands, but that wouldn't stop him from worrying until he returned to Artemis. He also wasn't going to leave her side, at least for the time being.
Ostberg was quick to administer a hypo, no doubt to keep K'Deela comfortable, and while Howard wished he could have done more, he understood that he wasn't the person to help and that he still had a job to do. Speaking of, Pearson might just need that additional backup, as his teammate forced himself to ignore his wounds, before taking out a spare weapon and aiming it at the Klingon who had refused to be taken down. He seemed hellbent on wanting to harm Captain Givens, and if Pearson hit true, then this would finally be over. Getting to his feet, Mortimer wasn't the only one ready to provide cover, as Svenson closed into also assist should Pearson need it.
