~Well, let's get this over with~ Cas thought as he walked through the pressure- sealing double doors of the main sickbay. Around him nurses and orderlies bustled about on their business.

He noted their activity with satisfaction, noting the brisk walk and efficient manner of conducting business with the eye of a drill instructor and knowledge of someone well aquainted with hospitals from the 'recieving end' as it were.

This sickbay looked good, well stocked and roomy just like every other part of the huge vessel, crewed with seemingly quite competent people. Trying to spot the chief physician Cas turned around a full circle.

"Good morning Mr Zimmerman," Teilani said as she looked at the Marine. =hmm he was quite nice looking=

Cas turned around to look at the medical officer, frowning a bit. "Good morning, ma'm. I'm here for my checkup."

"Very good, Mr Zimmerman. Please follow me." Teilani walked to the main examination room and pointed towards the biobed. "Please sit down, and stop frowning Sir, it will be over soon and besides it makes your face wrinkle."

He walked briskly behind her and sat on the biobed, carefully smoothing his features into an impassive poker-face. "Sure, ma'm."

Inwardly Teilani sighed. When would people ever learn that Sickbay was not a scary place that a doctor only ment well. She turned and took her tricorder from a tray. "Do you have any medical problems Sir, something I should be aware off? she asked softly.

"Well, nothing that isn't in my file, ma'm. I'm still watching my cholesterol intake, and PT keeps me in pretty good shape." Cas shook his head.

"PT?" Teilani asked questionably as she ran the scanner along Cas's body.

"Physical Training. Usually a five-to-ten mile run on the treads plus calisthenics. Just the normal stuff to get up and awake in the morning..." Cas shrugged, finding it again hard to explain a habit of twenty years.

"I see," Teilani responded as she checked the tricorder readings. "Perhaps if you are interested we could do some jogging together Mr Zimmerman." She reached back and took a hypospray. "I'm giving you some vitamin booster, you were lacking some B12 and calcium."

"Oh, I do most of my jogging down on the Marine country. There's not a holosuite big enough for a full platoon to excercise together, so we set up shop in a storage bay, with treads and excersize equipment. It's not fancy, but you are welcome there, ma'm." Cas smiled at her, lifting his chin a little to give her a better aim.

Teilani gently pushed his chin a little further exposing the artory and gently pressed the hypo spray against it. A soft hiss told her the vitams were administered correctly. "I dont care much for fancy surroundings Mr Zimmerman, I just might visit the cargo bay to hold you up on your offer."

Teilani smiled as her green eyes fixed on Cas's face. "You are cleared all is fine, thanks for coming Sir,"

He stood up, looking down to her eyes. "Thank you, ma'm. A pleasure to meet you." he smiled, nodded and headed to the doors. ~Well, I'm glad that's over with,~ he thought, ~but it would've been worse with a doc less easy on the eyes.~

Fiddling with her tricoder Teilani watched Zimmerman leave. Who would be next?
