He finds a building that was probably a lab, when it was in better condition. The bodies were lying on the floor in the middle of the room, hidden by a lab bench. They were hurt pretty bad- broken ribs, dislocated shoulder, badly bruised... Nothing fatal in and of itself, but in combination with the other injuries equalled trouble. From the quickest of looks it appeared as if they were beaten during an interrogation after the camp was over run, then left to die of their injuries in the slowest and most painful of ways. Considering that they were not dead, and that some of the easier injuries were taken care of (broken bones splinted, dislocations put back in place and braced...) indicated that there were others there. Perhaps they left at the sound fo newcomers. Or perpahs they were out gathering supplies- water and food.

Caimlyn considered the scene for a minute.� The men appeared well cared for.� THat would mean that anyone near by would be friends.� He moved in closer to the injured men and scanned them with his medical tricorder after moving the bench aside slightly.

In the absence of proper medical care, they were sedated. Not completely out, but asleep with the help of good pain killers.

While the two officer, could probably hear him, they were probably not in any condition to understand him.� Before starting to work on them, he announced his presence.� "I am Ensign Ra'aj y Caimlyn.� I am a Starfleet Medic.� I am going to try and work on your injuries."� He could only hope that his statement would prevent any one watching from blasting him while he worked on them.

They made not a sound, nor a move. Caimlyn was able to do a full work up on them. The human was not too terribly bad off, comparatively speaking of course. He had a dislocated shoulder (that had been put back in place), a pair of bruised ribs, a broken leg (splinted), split lip, some swelling around an eye,and signs of a serious interrogation that included a good beating (or 5). The Andorian was a different matter. He had a broken collar bone, a broken rib, nasty bruises on his appendages with some swelling, and a trio of phaser burns that suggested that he had been shot on heavy stun a few times.
