Disclaimer: if you recognize it, it isn't mine.

This entire story came to me one night for a love of Ronan. He's just too good a character to be wasted on anyone in the show.

The doors 'whooshed' before me as I stepped onto the main deck of the new earth ship Daedlus. I nodded at the airman stationed at the entrance.

"We will be dropping out of hyperspace any moment now ma'am" the airman Johnathan said. He was often on duty when I came up to the bridge, and was happy to speak to me (aka gossip) about the going ons of the heart of the ship.

"Good", I flashed a smile. "Thank you" nodding as I took a seat behind one of the main vertical panels. so used to my presence I was given nary a glance, something I had been hoping for. it was so much easier to sneak about when you simply blended in.

The time I spent wandering around the ship had become a common sight to the crew and I took advantage of their lowered guard when ever possible to insert myself it to the lives of the reinforcements heading for Atlantis.

Mere minutes later there was a sudden lurch as the ship came to a sudden stop.

'Beautiful' I thought, as I got my first glimpse of what was to be my new home.

Atlantis.

the famed city, lost to the ocean depths. found once more.

The alien warships surrounding her only seemed to increase her glory.

I watched as Major Sheppard was scooped up seconds away from sure death.

I was impressed wih this one, the ability he had to lead in such an unusual place, where you couldn't be sure of anything. When I had previously looked over his record I had noticed his habit of disobeying commands given to him by superiors. This, I supposed, served him well in Pegasus; he was not like the rigid, unyeilding miltary leaders that were common in the armed forces.

He seemed to handle himself well, going from siege, to suicide mission, then switching to a full on space battle.

'So this is the current commander of Atlantis' I mused, listening to Novak stuttering over the com system. I did not envy the poor girl from engineering, being stuck as she was between Colonel Caldwell and the Asgard.

As the battle in the black waged my thoughts turned back to Atlantis and the start of my new assignment.

The poor fools wouldn't know what hit them.
