I know I should probably finish my other stories before putting more up but I had the idea and just had to start writing it.

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Stargate Atlantis or the Sisters of Battle or anything else from Warhammer; I'm just borrowing them to write this story. However I do own any characters, places, devices etc, that you don't recognise. If you want to use them, ask.

As always reviews, comments, suggestions and constructive criticism is welcome.

Prologue

Twelve thousand years ago, by human reckoning the year 9994BC, a severely damaged ship appeared above the city of Atlantis. The Ancients tried and failed to make contact with unknown ship.

The ship's orbit degraded and it began descending towards the land. The ship eventually crashed on the far side of the continent, creating a massive crater in the process. The Ancients went over to assist any who were still alive. After entering and searching the ship the Ancients only found two people alive, two women. The two survivors were quickly loaded into the jumpers and taken back to the city.

While the two slept the Ancients investigated the ship and found it far beyond their technology or ability to understand. It was several days before the first of the two awoke. She introduced herself and her companion as 'Sisters of Battle', though she would not give their names. Not long after the other also awoke and the two were taken before the council of the city.

There they explained their situation. The ship had been damaged in a battle and they had attempted to escape through the warp. The warp had led them back through the ages to their present location. They had travelled back from the 41st millennium. They were also far older than they appeared, stating they have been blessed with long lives by the Old Ones and were already over two thousand years old. The two also explained what they meant by 'Sisters of Battle'.

After much deliberation on the part of the Ancients, it was agreed that the two could stay among the Ancients if they so chose. The two checked upon their ship and soon realised that fixing it was impossible at the current time. They brought over their few personal belongings along with all their armour and weapons and were given rooms in the city.

As time passed the two became part of the ongoing battle with the Wraith. They could often wipe out entire fleets with little or no help from the Ancients. The human civilisations of the time regarded the Sisters as God-like beings. They had always been victorious and saved many lives. The peoples made stories of the two Sisters, how they came to be and why they fight.

The battle raged on for another two thousand years and the two still continued to fight. When the Ancients decided to leave the city, the two opted to stay behind, in cryogenic chambers, to be awoken if the Wraith were to ever find the city. The Ancients agreed after much persuasion and placed them in two separate areas of the city, with their titles written onto the chamber doors. At this time Doctor Elizabeth Weir had also made the trip into the past and met the two briefly before they were put into the chambers.

The Ancients never did discover the names of the two Sisters before they left and the peoples of the Pegasus Galaxy continued to tell the stories of the two Sisters and how they would return. Soon the stories became legends and the legends became myth and the two were forgotten by all except the Wraith. The Wraith searched for the Sisters for many years before stopping as most went into hibernation.

As the Wraith never found the sunken city of Atlantis, the two remained frozen, waiting to be woken so they could fight once again.
