Getting There

Prologue: Going Away

"Could you make a magically dead place?"

"I'm not sure," she paused, "Something has to be actively seeking energy, I could connect it to the magic and it would drain the area, but only as often as the thing was used and it wouldn't be a large area."

"But you could do it?"

"Well, yeah, but only in certain conditions: nothing evil, bad or illegal. I mean, if I were to get as much power as I could I could drain the area of a small to middle-sized town. But I could only do it every month or so. It takes about twenty-four hours for nature to recharge available magic."

"Could you find a place, a thing that was actively seeking energy?"

"Oh yes, that would be easy."

"Could you pin-point it?"

"Yes."

"Could you find the exact object?"

"Yes."

He paused, "Would you? For me?"

"Well... I..."

"We could find out if it was a good thing or a bad thing. Please..."

"Okay. I'll do the search."

"Thank-you." A small smile past between the two friends and the man turned and left.

"I found it."

"Oh! Good! Did you find the exact object?"

"Yes. It's called a Star Gate. The military are using it to travel to different planets and save Earth from a race call the Goa'uld."

"So... can you connect it to magic?"

"Well, it'd be tricky, but yes. And you should be pleased about this: it would need enough magic to drain the area it's in, and the town near-by. That's once a day. The Star Gate gets opened on a daily basis, sometimes up to five times a day. I could connect it enough that it would take all the magic in that state, but never more, and you wouldn't have to worry hardly at all."

"That's excellent!"

"But, again with the tricky. To connect the Star Gate to the natural magic, I'd have to put safeguards on who could use the Star Gate. I can't allow something that powerful to be used by someone evil. The problem is who to guard against?"

"Against the Goa'uld."

"But the Tok'ra are good Goa'uld... And, and baby evil Goa'uld inhabit people's stomachs and don't control the body. The people can't live without the little monsters."

"Okay, safe guard against all who have evil influencing the opening and operating of the Earth Star Gate."

"Coming or going?"

"Can't you do both?"

"It would take an extra month at least to do both."

"I can wait. I could find an apartment, a job, a babysitter... A month would give me time to get everything settled."

"I'm only doing this for you and the baby. Mostly just you."

"Shh, it'll be alright honey, you're my best friend, come and visit every weekend, spend time with Ryan and me. Remember that I love you."

"I'll always remember that. By the way, are you going to be able to find an apartment wheelchair accessible?"

"Yah, it won't be a problem. Wait, where is this place anyway?"

"Colorado Springs. Cheyenne Mountain in the Rockies. Nice place. Snow, sun, regular weather."

"Sounds good. Can you start the plans for your spells now or do you have to wait for something?"

"Oh, now's good. You gonna Google a place to live and work?"

"Yah, I thought about doing just that."

"Oh! Hey, you could get someone to drive you down, take you around... Or." A shy look, "I could teleport you and Ryan there with a friend..."

"Hey, Will, you want to come with me and Ryan aboard the Rosenburg Express to look around my new town?"

"I'd love to come Xander."

"That's why I love you –being best friend in and excluded.
