SGC RETURN

Chapter 1: Mysterious Travelers

General Roderick Wells decided that it was physically impossible for his day to get any worse. For starters three SG teams were missing, his wife had run out on him that morning, and his car had broken down. So when the young Lieutenant who was in charge of encoding the Stargate told him that there was an incoming traveler it was no wonder that the General actually snarled.

"Close the iris," he ordered.

"Unable to do so, sir. The incoming code has been accepted by the computer and I can't override it."

"Who does the code belong to?" he sighed.

The Lieutenant shook his head. "No one, sir."

"What do you mean 'no one'?" he demanded.

The poor Lieutenant looked decidedly uncomfortable. "That's exactly what I mean. The code does not to belong to anybody but the computer is accepting it. It's like someone programmed the computer to accept that code no matter what."

"I want two units down there stat," he ordered and a moment later several soldiers, and he, ran into the Gate Room and cocked their weapons.

The General watched in silence as four people stepped the Stargate then stopped and looked around, as if confused. They were all wearing SG uniforms, but the ones that had been declared outdated over forty years ago, and carrying old weapons although one was carrying what looked like a staff weapon.

After a few moments the man in front spoke, "What's going on?"
