“What’s fair?” a voice said as the door to their room reopened, and Trent let himself in.

“Nothing,” Ethan lied. Trent just gave him an uneasy look and then shook his head.

“Who’s in the bathroom?”

“Kira. She decided to use our shower instead of hers,” Conner informed him, leaning back against the head board of his bed, crossing his legs, and folding his arms across his chest.

“Too many women in one room. Oh well, I’m sure Dr. O will let us use his if we’re going to run late,” the former white ranger replied as he sat down on his bed and began to take off his shoes.“What is it with you and calamari?” Zack asked.

“Doesn’t agree with me,” Tommy said firmly.

“I can see three waitresses arguing over there,” Ethan said, squinting over at the hostess station. “Oh, wait, one of them’s coming this way.”

The winner of the waitress war took their orders, which took a considerably long time, and promised to return with their drinks and a bread basket. “Hey, she was kind of cute,” Conner said once she was out of earshot.Billy slid a narrow panel over her chest and clicked it into place. Restraints came forward from the table and they helped him lock down her legs and arms. A few seconds later a clear mask slid over her neck and head. The computer took over for him then, analyzing the problem and physically inserting an oxygen tube in the base of her throat, below the swelling. Carri relaxed almost immediately.

“The computer will also sedate her.” He said, placing what he hoped was a reassuring hand on Rocky’s arm. “She should be fine. It’s just a massive over reaction to the venom. The most dangerous part is already passed, the computer’s in control now. It’s state of the art, even on a core world.”

The first thing Billy had done when he learned of Trini’s pregnancy was to upgrade the medical facility. He had absolutely no faith in the medical technology of his home world. He’d used his influence to procure two of the most advanced medical computers in the sector, and probably many others. Carri would be fine, but her reaction to the venom concerned him. Her immune system was overreacting and the readings the computer was giving him didn’t look good. Carri was in for a long recovery. His eyes met Kim’s and she nodded, as if understanding his silent misgivings. She pulled a seat up next to the bed and directed Rocky to sit. He did so numbly, eyes following every movement the computer made around her head and neck.
