Stargate SG-1

Project Thor

Slowly the large BC-304-X pulled out of the highly classified Spacedock orbiting a forgotten world held by the Tau'ri, it's experimental Asguard-Tau'ri computer core monitored every station on the ship as the temporary commander Colonel Cameron Mitchell and his crew observed from the bridge. Effortlessly the large experimental ship pulled out of pulled out of it's construction facility that held the large carrier in orbit. With is arms folded and a smile on his face as he sat in the Command chair he looked around the bridge at his crew.

"We have cleared Spacedock, initiating sub-light engines. Thrusters at station keeping" Called out the ship's computer.

"Well that was easy. Helm set course for the testing grounds. Alert the SGC we are underway on our own power"

"Colonel, the computer has already set course, the SGC has responded to the ship's notice"

"Cool, so what do you want to do now Major?" He said with a smile.

"Well nothing sir, the ships Hyper drive engines are charged and ready… no wait, Hyperspace window forming, we are proceeding at one half military thrust"

Although the design of the ship followed the lineage to the original Daedalus, her lines where smoother and more rounded as all receiver dishes and transmitters had been replaced with Asguard variants, her hanger decks capable of carrying ten F-302-C class fighters and two ancient 'Puddle Jumpers' the large bomb bay under the ship could be utilised to carry larger support ships such as Goa'uld scout ships or mid-range bombers, her defensive and offensive weapons made her a formidable target against any attacking vessel. Confidant in the ability of his vessel Colonel Cameron Mitchell stood from the 'Big Chair' as he called it and moved towards the open door to his left.

"Major Barnes, you have the bridge… such as it is. Alert me if anything… you know what I mean"

"Umm, I don't foresee anything going wrong sir. This ship is capable of doing everything it's self. All we have to do is sit back and enjoy the ride"

"Just call me if you need anything… Okay?"

"Aye sir!" His body language told his subordinate everything he needed to know as he walked off the bridge.

42 Hours Earlier…

Mitchell walked at a leisurely pace threw the corridors of the SGC, his time at the highly classified military complex had been some of the greatest years of his life, yet for some reason SG-1 had been shelved for the next three missions and it seemed as if no one would tell him why until the call came threw the speakers for him to report to the General's office.

As he knocked on the office door he saw more top brass in the general's office then he had seen in a while.

"Generals…"

"Colonel, sit down please"

"What's going on sir?"

As he carefully moved threw the cluster of General Stars before him he found a seat next to what appeared to be scientists.

"I believe you have met Brigadier General Pierson, Colonel?"

"Yes General I have. It's been a long time sir"

"Too long Colonel Mitchell"

"So if you don't mind… why am I here?"

Leaning forward I his chair Landry smiled as he tossed a file towards the nervous looking Colonel, cautiously he looked down at the file cover and frowned slightly as he read it silently. 'Top Secret. Eyes Only. Project Thor'

"General, what am I looking at, And why?"

"You are supposed to actually read the file Mitchell"

"Could take awhile, the short version?" He said with a half smile.

"Alright, I think you need to know… you are about to take part in a highly classified and experimental War-game involving a new variant of the BC-304 class Battlecruisers codenamed 'Thor'. Basically a new class of ship has been built from the ground up using Asguard and Human tech. The computer is capable of commanding the ship in almost every way from basic operations to full on ship to ship combat. The Free Jaffa have generously agreed to loan us two Ha'tak class ships for the duration of this mission"

"Sounds familiar sir" He said with a smile.

"General Pierson will command the Odyssey during the mission as part of the attacking force, he will also assess the viability of the new unit onboard a ship…"

"Basically Cam' if this new unit works it will mean a new era in space exploration, just imagine a whole fleet of vessels with the 'Thor' unit. Science vessels designed specifically for exploration, military vessels capable of defending against any threat… reacting faster then any human ever could"

Nodding with caution Mitchell looked around the room as each general and scientist as they tried to convince the sceptical Colonel before them.

"So General, General Landry, who designed this 'Unit'?"

As he looked around a hand raised from the back of the group of white coats, as the person moved forward threw the group, Mitchell both sighed and laughed at the same time as a nervous face appeared before him.

"Didn't he quit?"

"The Doctor is one of the pre-eminent scientists on the Asguard legacy"

"2003, the 'Doctor' Introduced a computer virus into the DHD on a world controlled by Ba'al, in effect he shut down the entire Stargate network"

"That was not my fault"

"It never is, is it Doctor? So what do you expect from this… War-game, if I agree to take part?"

"Well umm…" He said nervously.

" 'Well Umm!' doesn't exactly fill me with confidence"

"He's a funny guy, I like him. Well Colonel, we will gate to an off-world facility where we will then be ringed up to the ship, once onboard the ship will set course for the testing area. The vessel will engage the 'enemy ships' after a quick survey of an unexplored planet"

Quickly Mitchell threw the file on the General's tidy desk and looked around at the General's waiting for an answer.

"This sounds amazingly familiar"

"That's what Coombs said. Also something about a 'Red Shirt' I don't get it"

Present Day…

After making his way threw the ship Colonel Cameron Mitchell, seasoned SG-1 team member and pilot entered the ship's messhall, after looking around he found the only empty table in the crowded room. Quickly he picked up a coffee and sat down at the empty table, he was told by the many General's in Landry's office that this was 'A Great Singular Honour' yet as he thought there is no 'Great Honour' in being bored out of his mind, more so having to sit threw 'Doctor' Jay Felger's presentation on the capabilities of this new design. Although the ship's sleeker smoother design did appeal too him, turning over control of a Battle Cruiser to a computer did not sit well with the Colonel and the man that he is, not to mention the redesign of the vessel, removing the 'Control Tower' structure that held the bridge as now the command centre of the ship was deep inside the vessel its self.

"This is an amazingly BAD idea" He said aloud.

With Teal'c at home with the Jaffa High Council and Daniel temporarily reassigned to SG-10 after an accident with one of it's members he had little to do other then sit back and look around as the bored skeleton crew did what ever they could to pass the time. Quickly the majority of the crew who sat in the messhall of the ship had begun to gather around a table, laughing and joking. Slowly his eyes drifted to the middle of the room as he thought too himself 'Why not'. Standing he grabbed his coffee and walked towards the gathering group, as he pushed his way threw politely a voice began to ring out a voice that made him sigh deeply. Quickly he reached the front of the gathered crew as the person at the centre of the group looked up and smiled.

"Well if it isn't Captain… no Colonel Dunsel!"

"What the HELL are you doing here?"

"Well I had nothing else to do, why not come and bother you? After all, can't a girl like big boys and their big toys?"

Slowly she leaned to one side in her chair and placed her left arm on the chair in a familiar pose as she spoke out loud with a terrible impression that made the crew laugh.

"Captain's Log, Stardate 4729.4... We… have… been… ordered to… Starbase 47 for…"

"Enough, Vala come with me… NOW!" He barked.

"Yes… Spock!"

With the crew laughing he turned and looked back at the majority as he eyes burned with anger.

"I can not imagine that on a vessel of this size… no one has work. MOVE NOW!"

"YES SIR!" They yelled in unison.

Quickly the group ran out of the messhall as Mitchell grabbed the arm of his most annoying team member and almost dragged her out of the messhall.

"Whoa, Whoa! Wait are you doing?"

"What am I doing? What the hell are you doing here? I though you where spending time with your father?"

"Well, spending time with 'Dad' often means ripping someone off for a large amount of money…"

"Your favourite past time?"

"Give me some credit Mitchell"

"I have nothing on me" He said with a smile.

"Funny. Well Jacek was hard to find, he disappeared since our last meeting"

"So you thought you would come here and annoy me?"

"Is it working?" She said with a large smile.

With a half smile he looked at the ceiling as he walked away from her laughing slightly.
