[After finding her clothes and things, Christine is tiptoeing through the ship, expecting an enemy around every corner. But when she comes to the hatch that leads out, she feels a rush of relief. Slipping outside, she takes in her surroundings, and then tries the communicator in her hand -- one that looks so much like one from the Enterprise that she assumes she can reach her ship.]
Chapel to Enterprise. I'm at an unknown location. I was captured and placed in some sort of stasis pod. Requesting you beam me up immediately.
[She waits, and nothing happens. Nor is there any response from the transporter team. Uh oh.]
Enterprise, come in?
[More silence. Sighing, she begins to move away from the crashed ship, wondering if there's something about it that's blocking her signal. She looks curiously at the domed city in the distance, and the landscape surrounding her. Then she speaks to herself.]
Where am I?

I really wish they'd stop yanking people back every time someone new from the ship wakes up, but I'll take it over nobody at all.
You're on a planet called Verdana, Nurse Chapel. No sign of the Enterprise, and we're not sure we're even in the same galaxy as Earth at this point. There's some shenanigans involving time and cross-dimensional travel that the engineering types are obsessing over, but I've been stuck dealing with bioengineered plagues and now trying to restart the immune system of someone who hasn't got one.
Good to see you. Now get down to the hospital here and help me out.
[Video]
So time shenanigans mean you've been here for awhile, I'm guessing? And where is this hospital, sir? Is it under that dome?
[Video]
[Bones' expression grows abstract, and enlarged, as he pulls his communicator (disguised as a PADD) from its place and accesses its onboard stores. It's the work of a moment to send along a rough copy of a local map, with the hospital and a few other locations annotated.]
There. And I'd give it a couple months now. Being a doctor, not a theoretical physicist, I'm stranded until someone else figures out how to put us all back where we belong. Fortunately, there's one of those running around... and we used to have Jim, but the pods on board the ship are tricky. Sometimes people get pulled back into stasis, and he was one of them.
[Video]
And he'd be out by now if there was any way for us to open them from the outside? That or it'll kill him if we try to open it, I'm guessing.
[She makes her way down towards the old city like the map showed her.]
Is there a local population in this city, or is everyone there from the pods too?
[Video]
[Just because Kirk is in stasis doesn't mean that Bones, best friend as much as he is the subordinate-with-veto-rights that is CMO, can't razz him in absentia. His eyes are a little bleak, for all that.]
Outside the dome, the city's population is in the low thousands, and there are around forty of us from the ship that are awake and about. There used to be more, but the plague took it down by nearly two thousand people in a matter of weeks before we could get antivirals and a vaccine rolled out.
It's safe now. Mordin Solus, the doctor that worked with me on that, is off on a rickety boat with a group of people to make sure the vaccine spreads.

So since he's awake and catches the attempted communication and all, he replies.]
Your pardon, miss. But I'm afraid you quite likely very far from home. This planet is called Verdana, and no one yet who's arrived has heard of it. Are you all right?
[Video]
[Video]
[He pauses, tilts his head at her with a little smile, and adds,]
The name is Randolph Lyall, by the way. How do you do.
[Video]
I'm Christine Chapel, and I've been better.
[But still, this is better than being the only person here, besides those still in those pods.]
Thank you, though. Do you happen to know how long I might have been in that pod?

But you're safe here, among friends. [Well....'safe' might be an overstatement.]
[voice]
[Coming to terms with it though? That might take a little longer.]
Right. Sure. Uh, can you tell me why I woke up in a pod in a crashed space vessel?
[voice]
We were brought here, we've been told, to be weapons in a war. But the war ended before they could use us and we were forgotten.

[He's still getting used to this planet, but confused newcomers are, well, nothing new.]

[By now she's walking down towards the city, but she spares a look back at the alien ship lying there. What she wouldn't give to hear Mr. Scott get in touch with her right about now, or see a shuttle from her ship coming down to pick her up.]
Are you a pod-person too?

[AKA, she doesn't want you to waste your time if it's an easy journey.]

This time of day? You should be all right if you're that close. Most of the immediate danger's from the wildlife, at the moment.
