As soon as Sheridan got back to the Ship he returned to the lounge, he was sure their were casualties there and needed to check on them.. As he entered he noted it resembled a war zone.
Ted was seated on a bar stool, examining a deep wound on his thigh. His mouth was screwed up to keep from grunting in pain. He looked up and saw Sheridan walking towards him. Ted checked on the girls and saw that Jamie and Toras were leading the others really well. Dreral was helping with the heavy lifting, so Ted limped over to the first officer.
"John." He looked around. "It doesn't look good, does it?" Dreral looked up and Ted saw a cut next to the boy's eye. The older man sighed and looked back at John.
Sheridan case a glance around the carnage that used to be a very nice lounge.."Some hard damage here, hows everyone, I can get a medic down here."
Ted looked around at the girls. Toras had a cut across her cheek and Dreral had a cut, but other than that, the others were fine. "Toras and Riven have some cuts, but I think I got the worst of it. My leg got a very nast blast from a disruptor." Indeed, he was hobbling badly and crimson was bleeding freely from the wound.
Sheridan turned to a marine corporal and whispered in his ear... "Get corpsmen in here now." He turned and tapped his combadge.
=A=Sheridan to Bridge, I need all available medical to the lounge=A=
"Here sit", Sheridan grabbed a chair and brought it to Ted.
Ted limped over and gingerly lowered himself into the chair, letting out a sigh as the weight was taken off his injured leg.
Sheridan put his hand on Teds shoulder, "You put up a grand fight here Ted, well done."
Ted nodded. "Just not good enough. If it was so grand, I wouldn't have gotten hurt, right?" he said, trying to laugh at his own pain.
"It could have been worse if you weren't here...."
Ted nodded. "Can't argue with that." He was trying desperately not to cry out at the pain in his leg.
A man in medical teal came in and looked around for a moment before heading straight to Ted. "Pirates...what next?" He took out a tissue regenerator and began working on his muscles. "Disruptor burns...you're lucky you weren't killed."
Ted grunted. "Yeah, I feel real lucky."
The man scowled and continued working. "Yes you are lucky." He took out a dermal regenerator and began working again. When he was done, he gave Ted a shot of pain killer and said, "Now try to take it easy for a while."
Ted gave him a half smile. "If this ship will let me."
Sheridan nodded to the medic to check on the others, he walked to the bar and looked around, the place was destroyed.. "We'll get it all fixed for ya Ted. But for now you need to rest."
Ted stood up and limped over to the bar, favoring his hurt leg. "I'll get it fixed. I'm the only one who knows what goes where."
"Don't take to long messing with it, Your gonna have to stay off that leg for a few hours"
True to his hands-on nature, Ted immediately started picking up chairs, standing up tables, and picking up heavy objects from where they had fallen.
Sheridan called a few crew men to help Ted as he left the lounge for the bridge.
