15 Young Warriors

Stacy

Yawning, Stacy ambled down the corridor to the medical unit. She was still getting the two-warrior escort everywhere she went. They just hung back and waited outside whatever door she entered. She knew it was shitty, but since they never initiated conversation or responded well when she did, she was beginning to forget they were there. She almost regretted giving Meric the boot when he was escorting her around. At least she could get a short conversation out of him every now and then.

Skipping breakfast was really no loss. Since the Draconians had the same food for every meal, breakfast didn’t seem much like a morning event anyway. She’d grab a hydration pouch in medical and maybe a food bar later in the morning.

Today they were replicating plasma. Phan wasn’t going to be very happy about that because it was going to be all kinds of boring. A smile lit her face when she thought of the precocious young warrior. All the other healers were more like nurses or medics in that they only came when needed. Usually it was just Phan to keep her company. Since most of the warriors were aloof and she actively avoided the groomers because they were kind of handsey, that left Phan as the person she spent the most face-to-face time with. She was starting to think of him as the younger brother she never had.

The lights flickered on, and she began priming the plasma pumps. The soft whirl of the machine in the background was reassuring. Sliding on her lab coat, she grabbed a hydration pouch and a data pad. Running through her stock of plasma, she discovered the medical unit was low on seven types. Each clade had a different type, and there were forty-seven known clades. It was imperative to keep enough plasma in stock to handle a ship-wide emergency. A quick scan of the other ships alerted her that they needed plasma as well. Depending on how long the task took, it might take another day or two to complete the task.

When Phan arrived he had another young warrior at his side. She stepped out to meet them with her data pat hugged to her front.

“Healer Stacy, I wish to present to you my fellow warrior, Timric. He has been assigned to the healing unit as his first apprentice opportunity. Timric, this is Queen Stacy the Lionheart. She is in charge of our medical unit and was a healer on Earth before relocating to Dracon Two.”

Timric brought his hand up and held out the most beautiful yellow flower she’d ever seen. “I brought you a gift for allowing me to mentor with you, Healer Stacy.”

Smiling down at her new charge, Stacy accepted his lovely gift. “Why thank you Timric. That was very thoughtful of you, but unnecessary. I’m happy to have you training with us.”

“I appreciate the warm welcome, my queen. I am pleased to be working with you.”

“You can just call me Stacy, not that anyone ever does.
