The Tree Runs
Who: Tara, Big Pink Tree, Crowd of People
Where: Old Medibay, Blue Dwarf
When: While most of the senior crew are on the away missions
========================
<<SNIP>>
Tara stared at the crowd of nearly one hundred people all surrounding
her, moaning, whining and complaining. She was sitting on a chair in
the middle of a completely bare room.
"CALM DOWN! ALL OF YOU!" She shouted as the mob screamed for medical
attention. "I WILL TREAT YOU ALL AS SOON AS I CAN WORK OUT WHAT
HAPPENED TO THE MEDIBAY!"
'Oh god, where is it? what happened?' She thought to herself. 'Keto
is going to kill me for this!'
<<END SNIP>>
Tara's head snapped round as there was a quiet *rustle* from somewhere
just beyond the old medibay doors. Standing up, she stormed over to
them and looked outside.
The Big Pink Tree was standing there, rooted to the spot (heh) with
sudden fear, looking shifty, as far as Tara could judge.
*Rustle!*, it said hurriedly as it saw the frown on Tara's face.
"Did you," she asked pointedly, "Have anything to do with the medibay
vanishing?"
*Rustle-rustle!*
"Moving, then. Was it you?"
*.......rustle," the Tree confessed, hesitantly. Tara's frown turned
into an angry glare.
"Alright, WHERE did you move it to!? Tell me!" she snapped, reached
towards the Tree to grab a branch. It jumped backwards in fright,
backing away as she stalked (heh) towards it.
"Come back here!" she yelled, as the Tree suddenly turned around and
bounced off down the corridors. She ran after it, leaving behind a
slowly thinning crowd of rather bemused crewmembers as they watched
them race off.

OOC: Tag anybody still on the Dwarf who wants to be run into by a
rather scared Big Pink Tree. :)
