History
M’met: “Our sect found the shuttle 5 minutes after witnessing its drop from the sky. We are a kind race. Our value to the galaxy is our medical knowledge. We rushed to the point of impact, knowing there must be wounded. There was a woman still alive. She was carrying a child within her. The child was five days in her womb. She would have wanted the child to live; to find its father some day. So we harvested the fetus to nurture it. The woman died. She was badly injured. *sigh* So badly wounded. We left the people where they lay. Their race would want to reclaim their loved ones. Why did we take the child? Not tell of its existence? We were selfish, I think. We wished to see what this human child would become under our tutelage. We give her over to you now. In your standard years, she is 15. She can read and write your language and she knows a great deal of our medicines. She holds an interest in such things. You may care for her. But send her back when her life is to cease. We will join her again with her mother. You must promise this to us.” M’met stepped back from Admiral Parker offering him a small bow of respect.
The child was taken to SB 457 then to Tiberius IV where she was cared for at a Star Fleet residential home. Her parentage was investigated, her father identified and the file sealed.
Susan became an exceptional medical student and entered the Star Fleet Academy after two years at the San Francisco Medical University.
