"Unplanned off-world activation"
Elizabeth Weir, Colonel John Sheppard and Rodney McKay gathered around the panel. Elizabeth looked at the man.
"Do we have an IDC ?" she asked
"Not yet, doctor Weir…Wait, we're getting one" he answered
Colonel Sheppard waited nervously, after being on Atlantis for more than a year now, he was still not used to unplanned activation. He always expected something bad coming through the Gate.
"Ma'am, it's Colonel Sheppards IDC" he said looking at her
Every eye in the room landed on John. He shifted uncomftrable.
"Hey, don't look at me. I'm standing right here" he exclaimed
Elizabeth nodded. "Okay, open the Iris"
"Are you sure about this, Elizabeth ? Who knows what could be coming from the Gate ? It could be something awful" Rodney said getting scared
"Like what, Rodney ? A giant lemon ?" John asked irritated
Rodney looked at him. "No, I was thinking more the lines of a big life-sucking Wraith who got your IDC"
"It could also be one of our allies, Rodney. We have to wait and see" Elizabeth said
The iris openend and it wasn't a Wraith like Rodney feared but a young woman. She was thrown from the Event Horizon and landed with a big thud on the hard floor. She was very bloody and her clothes were ripped.
"Someone get Carson" Dr Weir yelled while running to the gateroom.
Sheppard reached the woman first and turned her on her back. "She isn't breathing" he said to Elizabeth
Carson then arrived and put her on a barry. He opened up her shirt and saw a bloody handprint on her chest.
"Wraith"
Sheppard looked at her confused. She looked so familiar but he couldn't place her. Maybe he has seen her in one of the villages he had visited with his team but why did she have his IDC ?
"She's not breathing Carson" he suddenly said
Carson nodded and when they reached the infirmary, he placed the woman on the life support.
"So she will be alright ?" Elizabeth asked
"I think she will be. Her vitals are stable and it seems the Wraith didn't have a chance to feed much of her. She has a few bruises that I was worried about but all together she was very lucky." Carson explained
Sheppard looked at the woman lying on the bed breathing softly. It was driving him crazy that he didn't know where he had seen her from.
"Anything on who she is ?" he asked
Carson shook his head. "I'm afraid not, lass. Her uniform indicates that she is part of the military here on Atlantis but seeing we've never seen her before and she's not in our system, I wouldn't know."
"NO DAD"
The three of them turned to the girl who was now shaking uncontrolable. Her eyes were still closed but her body was violently.
"DADDY" she yelled again
Carson ran over to her side and started to check her vitals again. "She's going in shock"
