== NRC Cindy and NPC Lt(JG) Gath ==
Cindy and Gath exchanged a glance. Neither had thought they were going to be assigned to the team, but it seemed the CoS had a plan that included them. While Kurasa was speaking, Gath reached over to the gear and grabbed two phasers, handing one to Cindy. They both checked the weapons and set them for heavy stun and did it in such a synchronized manner that you would have thought they had rehearsed it. It was simply that they were both doing it in text book fashion, as taught at the Academy for advanced combat training. When they were done, the weapons went to their belts on the right side, just behind the hip, at the four o'clock position.
As Kurasa conducted her briefing, Cindy returned the nod, understanding her initial role in the team. She also grabbed some isolinear tags and put a few in a pocket. Gath grinned at this and when the briefing was done he said to Cindy, "You've done this before." Cindy simply returned his grin as they moved into position on the transporter pad.
As they were waiting for the word, Cindy handed a few of the tags to Lim and said, "If we have trouble with them getting a lock to beam out the wounded, you can use these to help them get a lock."
Cindy smiled at Ens Mala and said to her, "Since we don't know how bad it is, you might want to hold your breath as we beam in. If there is smoke, you'll feel it with your eyes first and then know to breathe carefully, avoiding fumes as much as possible. It's always hard to tell what you're going to encounter with a badly damaged ship. Be cautious and alert, but don't forget to be kind. There will be dead and injured. We're here to help."
ala had heard Alex and Cindy talking about missions and training, but this was the first time that Mala was seeing Cindy in action. She sounded like an instructor, using that same informative tone, but not talking down to her. Cindy was aware that Mala had not faced a situation like this on a mission yet, but she had been trained for it. Mala had been on missions, but this was going to be a little different. This was fresh damage and the injured or dead would be a different kind of experience. There might still be small fires, systems failing and the screams of those suffering trauma. It can be a hard environment to navigate, especially if you're struggling to keep your own emotions and thoughts in check. As she liked to tell people, you never really get rid of the butterflies, you just find ways to make them fly in formation. That often seemed to help the new students.
