<Lt. Cmdr. Beata, Arriving on Slater Planet>

[Thank you Cheryl for the cue!]

As the Lafayette made her arrival in the planet's orbit, the transporter chief said the magic words: "Engaging now".

	Materialization occured normally, as the Away Team arrived on the Planet's surface. The environment uncovered to them at this point was quite odd. They had materialized in what seamed to be the capital, near what terrans call the city hall. There was a great deal of activity in the streets, mostly alarmed and anxious people. Well, people isn't really the word. The Slaters were wondering around in different shapes, most of them animal-like, and we could note a couple of shapes that were seen many times. 

	After examinating the surrounding, helped by my beloved tricorder, I managed to locate the medical research facilities. That was logically our next step.

	"People, here it goes. The Medical Research Center is right there, just 75 meters ahead. I believe it is our next step. Has anyone noticed anything unusual? McRae, Lectron, you'd better get in touch with their medical staff so we can start our diagnostics. Khan, you come with me, we'll meet the leader of the place to discuss of the options we have for the supplies' distribution. Any questions?"
