Amelia Mueller was sitting in her office as she looked from the clock on the wall and down to the ancient text that was laying in front of her on her desk with a worried look on her face because she was no closer to understanding the meaning of the text then she was two months ago,and she was running out of time.
"It is time kiddo." A voice said.
Amelia looked up to see Jack leaning in the doorway with his arms crossed over his chest as he smiled at her.
"Is it time already?" Amelia asked as she looked down at the text in front of her, letting out a deep sigh.
"The are about to begin dialing the gate at any moment." Jack said as he walked over to stand in front of her desk and he could see the scared look on her face that he knew she was trying to hide, but was falling at it because he knew her so well after. Jack leaned in hands in over the table, taking both of her hands into his.
"I am scared Jack" Amelia confessed as she looked up at him.
"I know." Jack told her as he squeezed her hand." Say after me."
"What?"
" I am Amelia Mueller a member of SG1 and i kick ass! Come on say it." Jack said as he put a hand behind his ear as he waited for her to say it out loud.
Amelia let out a deep breath." I am Amelia Mueller a member of SG1 and i kick ass."
"That you do." A deep voice said.
Amelia turned her head and she smile when she saw teal`c standing in the doorway with his arms behind his back.
"You came." Amelia said with relief in her voice that he made it.
Teal´c smiled at her before bowing his head towards her.
"I guess this is goodbye?" Amelia said as she pushed her chair away from her desk as she bowed down to grab her backpack off the floor and another smile came as she saw Daniel standing beside Teal´c.
"It is never goodbye, you of all people should know that." A new voice said as he walked into the office as he held out his arms to her.
Amelia dropped the bag onto the floor as she waked over to Daniel, putting her arms around him as she reasted her head against the mans chest.
"Imos atopar no Atlantis." Amelia whispered against the mans chest."
" Imos atopar no Atlantis." Daniel whispered back as he kissed her head.
"Okay kids let get this show started." Jack said, clapping his hand together, walking out of the offices.
Daniel walked over to grab the backpack as he walked over to her. holding out his hand to her. Amelia smiled as she took his hand into her own as the walked out, she turned around to look inside her offices for the last time before the two of them walked down the hall.
"You sure you want to do this?" Daniel asked her as they stood out side the gate room, looking inside to see all the ...and...that was standing around waiting for what ever that was about the happen.
"I am as ready as i ever will be." Amelia said as she turned her head up at the man she would miss most of all.
"Why do i feel like i am losing my best friend." Daniel said as he turned his head back to look at her.
"You will never lose me." Amelia said as she leaned in to kiss his cheek before looking into his eyes and she was about to say something when she hears someone call out her name, She turns around to see Aiden Ford waving his hand at her.
"I should go." She said, looking back at Daniel, giving him one last smile as she stepped into the gate room and feels Daniels hand slipping out of hers.
Amelia walks towards Ford and she saw Sumner was talking to a man and the man must have said something because he turned around with grim look on his face.
"Listen up!" A voice said.
Amelia turned her head to see Elisabeth Weir walking into the gate room as she went to take her place on the ramp so she could look see everyone and her eyes stopped on Amelia for a moment with a smile before looking back at everyone.
"We´re about to try and make a connection, We have been unable to predict exactly how much power this is going to take and we may only get this one chance at this. So if we are able to achieve a stable wormhole, we´re not going to risk shutting the gate down. We´ll send in the MALP probe, check for visibility and go. Everything in one go." She said, looking down at Amelia before she continued.
"Now, everyone of you volunteered for this mission and you represent over a dozen countries. You are the best and brightest and in the light of the adventure we are about to embark on, you`re also the bravest. I hope we all will return one day having discovered a whole new realm for humanity to explore. But as all of you know, we may never be able to return home.
Amelia turne around to look up at the control room to see Daniel and Jack were looking Down at her. Amelia turned back to look at Elisabeth, but as she did she saw a man with dark brow hair turn his gaze towards her and their eyes meet and the stood there staring at each other before Amelia pulled her eyes away from his as she looked up at Elisabeth.
"I´d like to offer you all one last chance to withdraw your participation." She said as she looked around the room and she smiled when she did not her anyone say a hear a word.
"Begin the dialing sequence." She said, walking down the ramp.
"So."
Amelia turned around as she made a sound in the back of her throat as she saw Bates walking towards her.
"Bates." She said as she crossed her arms over her p-90 as he stood in front of her and the stared each other down until the she heard the gate started to move. She pushed Bates with the end of her p-90 as she turned to look over at the gate.
"Just remember you dont have the general there to protect you." she heard him say as he pushed his shoulder against her as he walked past her and she was about to opened her mouth when all of the sudden she felt a hand reasting on her shoulder.
"Dont let the man get to you lassie." She heard a scottish voice tell her.
Amelia smiled as she turned her head to the side to find Carson standing beside her with a bright smile on his face.
"Hey doc." She said as she have the man a one armed hug, smiling to herself as she felt the man hug her back.
"So you ready?" She asked as the both turned in time to see the MAPL being send through the event horizon.
"No. Not really." the man told her as he stared into the event horizon as the with fear written on his face.
"You will be fine Carson." Amelia said as she rubbed the mans shoulder, they both turned their head towards Sumner when the heard him call out.
"Let´s go people. We dont know how much power we got. Security team 1 and 2, your are up frist." Sumner said, walking up the ramp"All other personal will follow on our signal."Sumner said, turning back to look into the event horizon ."Once on the other side, keep moving , clear the debarkation area. On my lead."
"Hold on colonel." Amelia heard Elisabeth call out, she turned her head to see Elisabeth walking into the gate room as she took her backpack of the floor as she walked up the ramp."We go through together." She said as she moved her backpack over her shoulders.
"Expedition team, move out." Sumner yelled as the stepped through the gate together with the security team following behind them.
Amelia looked up at the gate room one last time and she saw the three men holding up their hands to her and she reached her hand up at them and she felt the tears behind her eyes, turning back around she took a deep breath as she put a hand on Carson back.
"What does it feel like?" The man asked nervous as he turned to look at her as they walked up the ramp.
"You wont feel a thing." She said with a grin on her face as she pushed him into the event horizon, taking a deep breath herself before walking into it herself.
Somewhere far, far away a voice could be heard throughout the galaxy as it grow stronger and stronger as it flooded though the air." She has returned." Then it disappeared just as fast and the galaxy was once again left in silence.
