Chapter 1: The Announcement
Disclaimer: Nothing in either the Stargate universe or the Gravitation world belong to me—nothing that is except for the plot.
Don't read this if you aren't into this cross-over. I wanted to try it, and I don't want to get flamed for it.
Sam-Cal-Nori-chan
-Embarkation Room, Stargate Command-
Jack O'Neill was the first to cross the rippling even horizon closely followed by Cameron Mitchell and Samantha Carter. They were followed closely by Vala, Daniel, and two other women.
"General!" Jack greeted "What brings us back ahead of schedule? You know how hard it is to get Danny and Becky away from ruins." Daniel shook his head and turned to glance at Dr. Ramsden, but the anthropologist just sighed; they all listened as General Hammond spoke again.
"I'm sorry Jack, but we thought her team would want to know, that the procedure was a success." The gate deactivated as Teal'c and Ishta stepped through. They exchanged glances as Jack turned to the three teams.
"So, if I'm hearing this right… Major Wilks is…" Cameron trailed off looking for conformation.
"There will be a meeting on the Prometheus so the location of the Stargate is not compromised. I want your team ready to beam aboard in half an hour." General Hammond left the embarkation room, and after a moment the three units of SG-1 followed suit.
-Tokyo, Japan-
Another group was meeting for lunch a few blocks from the NG building in downtown Tokyo. Tohma, Mika, and Tatsuha are joining the other members of Bad Luck and Nittle Grasper. That is except for Shuichi; who is coming with Eiri and a fantasy novelist who has been staying in their guest room while writing her latest novel.
Eiri Yuki, Shuichi Shindou, and Renee Wilks approached the café together. Eiri was in the middle with Shu on his left and Renee on his right.
"This must be important Eiri-san has joined them." Tohma said with his trademark smile in place.
"Yeah, and Shuichi missed work…" said K as he held one of his hand-guns.
"K we're in a public place!" said Sakano as he looked around nervously.
"So," said K, Hiro, and Suguru; the two band mates correctly guessing their manager's response.
The trio walked in; Eiri looked board, Shu looked excited, and Renee looked amused. Shu spotted them and ran off while Eiri offered his arm, and Renee pulled up her cane and took it. They joined the group already seated at the three tables that had been pulled together.
"Shuichi what's this about?" asked Hiroshi Nakano as his best friend sat down next to Ryuichi Sakuma.
"Nescarna said we couldn't tell you until we knew it worked… well she hasn't said anything in a month so… we know it worked!"
"Either that or she's just giving the silent treatment; which someone should do every now and again." Eiri smirked.
"Be nice Eiri" Renee smiled.
''That word isn't in my vocabulary Ren-chan'' Eiri mocked her with Shu's term of endearment for her name.
"Why are we all here Aniki?"
Renee's phone began to vibrate. "We should go…" she got up to leave.
"Oh do they all get to come too?" Shu asked excitedly.
"No" said Eiri.
"but, but, but,"
"It's up to Hammond, but I don't think he'll mind I just need to tell Walter how many." Renee pulls out a Tolk'ra communicator. "it looks like it will be 12 Chief."
"We've got you on sensors Miss. Wilks…"
"Alright thanks Walter… oh where are we going to be sent?"
"You'll be in the Briefing Room aboard the Prometheus."
"Thanks again."
"I speak on behalf of everyone when I ask WHAT'S GOING ON!?" asked Hiro in frustration.
There was a flash and they were all gone. A moment later the group looked around and they were in a gray room with a great view of Earth out the window.
"The test results are in." said a petite redhead walking in wearing a lab coat and holding a clipboard.
"Really?!"
Eiri held onto the back of Shu's shirt as he tried to bounce over to the doctor.
"The procedure was a success. Major," she addressed Renee. With a smile she added, "Renee, you are pregnant."
"You're a Major in the USAF?" asked Suguru in interest.
"YOU'RE PREGNANT!?" asked Sakano, Hiro, and Tatsuha. Sakano began spinning around the room in his mini-tornado.
"Eiri?" asked Mika and Tohma turning to look at him.
"That's grate!!" Shuichi and Ryuichi exclaimed together. Ryu launched himself at Renee, but Noriko grabbed the back of his jacket.
"Ryu you can't just jump on her like that!"
"Oh, you're so mean Noriko!" he is squirming to get away from her.
"When did this happen?" she asked ignoring Ryu.
"They first approached us several weeks ago interested in our assistance because of Nescarna." Jacob Carter, or rather Selmak stated while entering the room.
"Selmak" Renee smiled going over to hug them, "How's Uncle Jake?"
"SG-1 has arrived, and are heading your way."
"Thanks again Walter!" Renee said to the disembodied voice coming from the communications system.
"My host is well," Selmak lowered his head, "Does he always do that?" asked Jacob watching Sakano's progress around the room.
"Too often" said Suguru who was sitting in a chair with his arms folded across his chest watching his producer.
A group of people entered the room. Jack was in the lead closely followed by Sam and Daniel; Teal'c came next with Ishta and the other two members of Renee's team Anna host to Nirrti and Dr. Rebecca Ramsden. Cameron Mitchell and Vala Mal Doran brought up the rear.
"Hey Dad" said Sam as she hugged her father, and then turned to Renee, "Hey how are you?" She hugged her cousin and fellow Air Force officer.
"Well, obviously she's doing good! She's having a baby with—" Vala scanned the group in the room, "Oh, is he one of them? Very nice."
"Yuki's MINE!" Shuichi stepped in front of the novelist.
"What can't I even look at him?"
"Vala," Daniel interrupted, "a little less talking at little more SHUTTING THE HELL UP!"
Renee's team surrounded her, "How are you love?" asked the British anthropologist as she hugged her leader/friend.
"I'm so happy it worked!" squealed the hyperactive host Anna; Nirrti took control, "We will be assisting during the process do to my extensive research into genetics."
"That's great," Renee said hugging the two, but her eyes fell upon her second in command, her sister among the world of the Jaffa, and one of her closest friends, "Tec ma te Ishta."
A smile slowly formed on the proud warrior's face, "There is no need for such formality, sister." In one movement the blond had wrapped her arms around her old friend pulling her into an embrace.
"Jack O'Neill?"
"K. Winchester?"
Everyone turned to see the two looking at each other. "I haven't seen you since… that time in Iraq."
"Good Times!" laughed K as he shook hands with his old friend. "It's a small world."
"Galaxy" corrected the members of SG-1 Alpha, Beta, and Delta.
The Goa'uld System Lord turned Tok'ra; walked over to the adoptive mother of the child she had orphaned, "What is the progress of the pregnancy, Dr. Fraiser?"
"She is just a few weeks" Janet showed her the beginning of the procedure's notes. "Here is where we introduced both—"
"No offense Doc, but the rest of us do not want to know" said Cameron catching Janet's attention.
"Well some of us want to know, and have the right to know, what's going on." Mika glared at her brother.
"You would have found out eventually." Eiri shrugged and joined Teal'c who was standing looking out at Earth.
The group had all found places around the table either sitting or standing. "What we need to discuss is getting Major Wilks here, or to the SGC if it is ever necessary." General Hammond said as he looked around at the assembled group. "The Asgard have offered the use of transportation devices that can be disbursed to the key locations where she normally goes."
"I guess it pays to be friends with Thor. They still won't share their—" The door slid open cutting Jack off.
"How dare you bring these civilians aboard? You're jeopardizing the Stargate Program, and for what; your own selfish personal reasons!"
"Bringing forth life for the sake of others is not selfish" Ishta said calmly her voice silenced the muttering. She was a leader in her own right, and it showed.
"That may be what is most important to the Ja-ra-ffa."
"If she had gone to someone else they would have found out about Nescarna and what would happen then?" Sam gestured at Renee while explaining to Kinsey.
"That vile creature isn't near her uterus."
"VICE-president Kinsey!" Jack said getting the man's attention, "You don't get it do you?"
"What Jack is saying is that—" Daniel started.
"You're not going to insult the Parasite when she can't defend herself." Eiri took a step closer to Renee and Shu who were sitting next to each other.
"I do Jack!" He ignored the irritated blond, "that it can't show itself, and so there's no problem."
"Nescarna cannot come forth without jeopardizing the life within Renee's body." Anna's eyes glowed as Nirrti glared at the Vice-president.
"Apparently you are under the impression that you hold authority over this group; that is a misconception; you do not hold power over us." Everyone looked at Tohma as he finished speaking.
All was quiet as the group looked from the President of NG to the Vice-president of the U.S. "Airmen can you escort the Vice-president out of this room?" General Hammond had seen enough of his interruptions.
-Tokyo, Japan-
Later Eiri unlocked the apartment door allowing Renee and Shuichi to enter ahead of him. "Ok guys, I'm going to go to the study." With a smile the fantasy novelist left them.
Shu headed over to sit on the couch, and grabbed some papers off the coffee-table. His smile grew as he stared at the blank page before beginning to scribble frantically. Eiri sighed and walked into the kitchen.
"I'm relieved too" Renee was sitting at the table with her laptop. She glanced in the direction of the living room where the sound of Shu's humming could be heard, "and he's very happy." She returned to her chapter as he began to make coffee.
"Is it hard for you?" he asked after he had joined her.
She looked up at him, and in the light her eyes looked more gray than blue, "No, I know the limits of what I can and cannot say. After working with the team for so long I understand better than most how important the SGC is."
"Not your writing," he sipped his coffee turning away from her slightly, "When you were forced to leave the team. You were happy today; happier than I've seen you in a long time."
"I didn't know you cared that much" There was something in her voice that said she knew that he did even better than he knew himself.
"I never said I did."
"Eiri…"
The door opened, and Shu came in, "Hey I figured you two would be in here." Shu smiled and walked over to the table. He knew he had interrupted something, and in apology he walked over hugging Renee before going to sit close beside Yuki.
Something is bothering them. I don't know what it is… Shuichi watched his lover, and the mother of their child look away from each other. What don't I know?
