"Is that the last of the women?" Tin-Tin asked Dianne.

"Yes, it is. We'll get the men out of this truck, then I can tend to injuries and all."

"We may have a problem, though," Tin-Tin said. "The women can't be seen by the men without their burkhas on."

Dianne stopped for a moment, then shook her head. "You're right. We'll need to come up with some way of keeping the two groups separate in the med cabin. This rescue is getting harder by the minute."

"Is there any way we can string up some sort of curtain to separate the men from the women while we're in Seven? We could always move the men to the sickbay on Two if necessary."

"Hmm. I think we might be able to work out something. Partition off the two beds on the bulkhead near the big door... the third man might not need a bed." The doctor nodded decisively. "It will be a squeeze, but it will have to do until we can set something up in the pod. I'd much rather have them resting close to the surgery rather than on the diagnostic beds in the sickbay, just in case."

Dianne helped Tin-Tin lower the last backboard and patient down to the anti-grav stretcher. Elise stood in the light wind, waiting for them. She had been pulled from working with Nikki to help hurry along the evacuation of the truck Dianne was working in. Callie was helping to bring victims out of the upside down truck. Already there were four screaming children in Thunderbird Seven's medical cabin, watched over by the one conscious young woman so that the women of IR could do their work.

I'll have to check that one gal over, too. She must have been pretty addled to give me the numbers she did, Dianne thought. Either that, or she doesn't know how to count.

"Okay, gals. Take this one inside and put her on a diagnostic bed. I'll prepare the men for transport while you're gone. And give me the readings on the woman that's already there. Tell me if she's regained consciousness yet."

"F-A-B, Doc," Elise said with a brisk salute. She and Tin-Tin moved off

Dianne climbed down from the truck, her medikit slung over a shoulder. This is one rescue where I wish we had more hands along. Even just Dom would have been a big help. But the local customs... blast those local customs! she thought angrily. When will people see that segregating the genders in times like these can be downright dangerous!




98% pure evil...and loving every minute of it.
