Location: Various Locations - Starbase Vanguard
Timeline: 0900Hrs - September 28th, 2393

Lieutenant Morg Wolfsong, better known as 'Morgan' went into the hospital plaza, he was still in a state of enraged as he had not even started to calm down from what had taken place earlier. Lieutenant Kadian Paris regarded him as he passed her in silence, his dark hatred momentarily overwhelming her psionic defenses. "Morg, you okay?" Paris called to him.

"I'm fine," he growled at her. Paris paused a moment before she decided to see if she could help him with his issues. Wolfsong was a simple doctor and he went into the office that was his, he wanted a moment alone so he could try to get the rage out of his system, he heard the door close behind him as he let out a loud scream at the top of his lungs, had the dead heard his cries, they would have taken pity on him as the relationship he had fought so hard to build had been utterly shattered, brought low by a woman who seemed to not care.

Paris almost skidded to a halt as a wave of hatred, anguish, and pain smashed into her mind all at once, she raised her left hand as if to block it, or ward it off, before she backed up a step, her mental shields were truly overwhelmed at this point before they suddenly broke altogether, and she felt his anger slowly wash over her mind, she knew she could not handle much more when suddenly it faded.

The suddenness of it all brought her to her knees. Paris let out a sudden gasp as she felt the impact on her knees and shins. She let out a soft whimper of pain as she did so. "Hoooo... God.." she whimpered as she did so.

"Are you okay?" Paris heard a voice in her ear, she turned to find herself looking at the face of Elizabeth Yamaguchi-Solusar who had clearly heard and felt the event too. "I've... I've had better mornings..." Pairs admitted softly.

"Well, come on, let's get you onto your feet..." Yamaguchi-Solusar answered as she gently helped the smaller female up. "Easy Kadian, I got you."

Paris knew that Yamaguchi-Solusar was an extremely strong woman as she pulled Paris to her feet almost without effort. "You wanna sit down a moment?"

"No..." Paris paused. "I'm okay..." as she mentally pulled herself together. "That psionic storm was impressive."

"I felt it too... Do you know what it was about?" Yamaguchi-Solusar asked as concern shone in her dark eyes.

"No.. But I'm going to find out..." Paris regarded Solusar-Yamaguchi. "I'm okay, you go on."

"Are you sure?" Yamaguchi-Solusar regarded the other woman before her, with concern in her eyes.

"Quite sure," Paris answered quietly. "This is not going to take me long."

"Alright." and with that, the two women parted as Yamaguchi-Solusar moved off back towards her own work and Paris as she moved forward and tapped the door chime of the office before her, which had been the epicenter of the event in question. "Come in." growled the male voice from within. Paris tapped the door release button and entered the office in silence.

Wolfsong regarded the smaller female before her in silence for a moment, she was at least forty pounds lighter then Ouros and half a foot shorter than the same. "What can I do for you, Doctor?" Wolfsong inquired of her, he had enough problems and he was desperately trying to avoid any more from arising, he found he could not meet her eyes.

"I felt that surge of anger..." Paris commented. "It was... painful."

"Oh." Wolfsong sighed. "I'm Sorry Lieutenant. I've not had the best of days..." he admitted.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" Paris asked, her dark eyes filling with compassion as she regarded him.

"No," Wolfsong answered softly. "Do not trouble yourself with it El-Tee, its a minor event and will pass in time... Once I process whats happened."

"Girlfriend problems." as soon as Paris said it, she felt the warhead become primed and ready to detonate, as she waited for him to lose his temper directly at her. Wolfsong looked at her, there was a darkness in his eyes that had not been there before. "I don't have a girlfriend anymore... She and I broke up." he paused. "It was... rather sudden."

"Oh." Paris paused. "I'm sorry..." she added, for lack of anything else to say on the matter.

Wolfsong took in a deep breath to calm himself, he was dangerously close to losing what little of his composure that remained. "Do not concern yourself with it any further." he paused and then started again. "Just accept that... there are some things in this universe that we can't change. You are better off focusing your efforts and energies on helping those we can help..."

"You're just going to give up?" Paris asked him, she knew he was close to losing it and it was her that was provoking him.

"Yes, Lieutenant. There are some things I can't fix, some things I can't do and she's focused on her mission. She told me to get lost... So I am going to move on as best as I can and see what tomorrow brings me..." Wolfsong was not known for giving up, for him to up and quit like this was telling, he was known for taking on the hard cases and the demanding issues.

"Fair enough," Paris answered quietly. "Did you think you tried hard enough?."

Wolfsong felt tired, so incredibly tired and it showed. "I've been trying, she and I were fraught with issues, we kept dancing around the issues... I wanted her to sort out her issues... I knew of her siblings and her mother's issues as well... Yet they all seem to have settled into life in this reality but Ouros won't... All we did at the end was argue and fight... So I'm going to leave it be and move on."

Paris paused, she had no good answer for him. "Alright," she commented softly. "I'll err... Leave you to it." and with that, she turned and departed in silence, the conversation had been draining as she felt she had been stripped naked of all of her shielding and much of her emotional armor. She needed a drink, Paris decided she would head back to her office and handle matters.
