JMC Blue Dwarf
Sickbay
Just after Tara's post
 
Tara stood up knocking the scanner bed over and startling the green cloud which Mrs Rimmer breathed in (hooray) and she fell over barely alive, the green cloud fled into the air duct leaving Tara to maybe leave Mrs Rimmer to die, but just then someone walked in.
 
Commander Niples looked down at the conconscious Mrs Rimmer and then at Tara.
"is that who I think it is?" he asked.
"it's Mrs Rimmer." replied the nurse. Seymour almost cringed at the name.
After a pause of them both staring at the woman, Dr. keto walked over and looked at her as well.
"Do you know her?" asked Keto.
Both of them nodded slowly, both probably wishing that they didn't.
 
"She's the mother of Arnold Rimmer. A low ranking technician on the Red Dwarf." said Niples. "Before we first embarked on our mission Mrs Rimmer talked to me personally about finding her son.... maybe 'talked' is too strong a word. Maybe 'nagged' is more appropriate. Seymour sighed at the sight of the woman laying helplessly on the floor.
 
"Well, she might be the anthropormorphic personification of the word 'annoyance' but we can't just leave her here.
Dr Keto and Nurse Cleavage nodded and helped her up onto a bed. Tara and Seymour quickly left so that they wouldn't be there when she woke up with a headache and bad temper.
"So why arent you on shore leave yet?" asked Tara to the Commander.
Niples waved his shuttle ticket at her, "The flight leaves in 2 hours, I just thought I'd come and have a wonder around the ship before I go. The thought of going up against Captain Cannon in this tribunal is making me a bit nervous."
 
Tara nodded in understanding. She knew that having a more important job, like 2nd in command of a mining ship had its responsabilities.
 
"so where are you going for shore leave?" Niples asked Tara.
 
<<over to you Tara! I'll have to catch my shuttle soon though!>>

Tara had packed some of her things for shore leave and was planning to stay with Alota's family after going to Euro Disney with Alota and White Wolf. Tara was queuing up at the shuttle bay to get a shuttle to Earth when she heard the voice nightmares are made of... Mrs Rimmer... "I've booked you into room 101 at the nearest Hotel to our house so you can stay with ... no sorry near us" Tara turned around screamed, so every one looked at her again and set off at a quick walk in the opposite direction. She heard footsteps running after her so quickly stepped up the pace to a sprint. She ran around Blue Dwarf to the only place she knew well ... the Medi bay. She ran through the double doors of the Medi bay and hid herself behind and half under a scanner bed. Dr Keto was supplying a man with what looked like fish paste so she just shrugged it off as one of his "phases" of medieval medicine. Dr Keto and the new crewmember left and in came a poisonous green cloud and Mrs Rimmer. (what happens next is not pretty so if you are squeamish stop reading now) It all happened so fast if you blinked you would have missed it, Tara stood up knocking the scanner bed over and startling the green cloud which Mrs Rimmer breathed in (hooray) and she fell over barely alive, the green cloud fled into the air duct leaving Tara to maybe leave Mrs Rimmer to die, but just then someone walked in, Tara hoped it was not Major Harris who would blast her out of an air lock without even a court marshal or a warning... Who is the person? Is it Major Harris? Is Mrs Rimmer dead? Will she die? Will Tara be blasted out of an air lock? What will happen about the green poisonous cloud? <this story is up for grabs to the first person who finishes it (who is not on shore leave!!!)> The continuing adventures of the Blue Dwarf...www.geocities.com/bluedwarf2000To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to:JMC_Blue_Dwarf-unsubscribe@egroups.com
