“Where is your captain,” the rebel leader shouted, leaning into Len’s face. Now that her patients were safe, she was relaxed. She could keep Lt Hendroff out of harm’s way, and not have to worry about them on top of it.
“I don’t know!” she retorted. “It takes time to organize what you want, you impatient bastard. Give her time to work!”
“I don’t have time for this!”
“MAKE TIME!” she hollered, finally losing her patience. And her temper. “She’s a goddamn miracle worker sometimes, but you don’t get to make demands and then get all bitchy when it takes time to get those demands in order.” She’d had enough of these goddamn idiots. “So sit down, shut up, and WAIT.”
Her diatribe earned her another blow, and she went sprawling. Lt. Hendroff looked angry enough to spit tacks, but Len shook her head, stopping any possible action the lieutenant might have taken. She didn’t need Hendroff getting hurt in a misplaced attempt to defend her. Spitting out blood, she heard the sound of transporters again.

Well I’ll be damned.
