Mission: From the Sidelines
Location: Underground/Starship

Phaser fire ensues. "These bastards just won't stop coming. I've got to find a way to make it easier for a beam out." Quickly adjusts his weapon to a higher setting, while running around the edge of the room, narrowly avoiding these "things". "This should work to deal with these instruments." He barrages every last piece of machine in the lab, along with quite a few beings. The room begins to shudder, violently. His scanner beeps, indicating a proximity alert. "Right on time." As he says that, one jumps on him from behind, rips a chunk of meat off his right shoulder. "Get the f**ck off me!" he fires a blast point blank to its face. The second the being is shot, the transporter begins sending him back to the ship, and the basement begins to explode.
..."Yes sir, he was just transported." "Take him to the infirmary." Blood begins gushing from the wound, and he counter pressures it, stands up, and heads out as the order is being said to the transporter chief. "Hey, you gotta wait for the doctor!" Turning his head, giving a dark glare to the chief, he says, "Shut it, starfleet. We'll meet each other on the way." The second step he makes out the door, he collapses on the ground. "What did he do...." The world quickly fades to black.
