Ancient Relatives


Summary

Hello Fan Fiction Community. This is my 1st story. It is going to be a series. It'll start as a SGA/SG1/SGU crossover. I have already planned the sequel. It is going to connect this story with BSG (Battlestar Galactica).

Disclaimer: I do NOT own any of the Stargate shows. I really wish I did, but I don't. I do own my character, though (Right?).

Forgive me if my OC seems overpowered. He is similar to Khalek and Adria, as he is a near-ascended being and has Ancient DNA.

This is an AU where the Atlantis Expedition is allied with the Asurans. That means that, later on, a lot of things may seem overpowered.


Prologue

Asuran Primary City-Ship (Where Sheppard's Team 1st Arrives)

1 Week Before Sheppard's Team Arrives (Around SGA Season 3: Progeny)

Niam turned to look at the stargate as it abruptly came to life. He was curious as the stargate had not activated in quite some time. "Water" erupted from the ring before settling at the event horizon of the wormhole. Niam, and every other nearby Asuran, watched as a glowing sphere with tendrils of energy came through the wormhole. The "sphere" paused until the stargate deactivated, then rushed backwards along one of the bridges that connected the city-ship to the rest of the planet.

"You and you." Niam said, pointing at two Asurans in security uniforms. "Come with me. We have to follow the 'sphere'"

Niam and the guards raced down the steps and along the bridge at inhuman speeds. They arrive outside the Asuran Council Chambers to find other Asurans have beaten them there. The door suddenly opens and Oberoth come out, flying backwards into a wall. As he stands, the "sphere" exits the room and stabs Oberoth with one of its energy tendrils. The guards reach for their weapons and suddenly freeze. Seconds after, Oberoth disintegrates into individual nanites. The "sphere" suddenly transforms into a glowing man with similar clothes to Niam. Niam eyes widen at realizing that he is in the company of one of his many "parents."

Turning to address the group, the man begins to speak. "I am Cyprus, an Ancient and therefore one of your creators. Oberoth is no more forever. He has been destroyed physically, as well as digitally. There is no return from this complete destruction."

"You," Cyprus exclaims, turning his attention to Niam. "Are a member of the Asuran Council, are you not?"

"Y-Yes." Niam replies.

"Good. You are now leader of your people. Rule wisely and your people shall prosper even further. And, yes, this does eventually mean ascension for those who are patient, yet actively seeking it."

Cyprus turns to leave and begins walking towards the gate. Once at the gate, he pauses to make an announcement.

"Be hospitable and trusting of those who come through the stargate with good intent. Else I return wrathful for disobedience."

With that, the stargate activates, all chevrons lighting up at once, and Cyprus steps through without another word.

1 Week Later

Niam stood next to the DHD console as the stargate activated. 'Two visits in a matter of days. Strange.' He thought. Niam watched an odd six-wheeled machine came through the wormhole. An Asuran approached Niam to tell him that the unknown "probe" was transmitting a form of video feed back through the wormhole. At hearing this, he walked to the stairs and cautiously moved toward the machine. Niam crouched down next to the machine and looked into its camera.

"To whoever sent this 'probe,' please know that, if friendly, you are welcome here on Asuras." Niam found it interesting that whoever he was talking to used a mechanical probe to scout out new worlds.

"Hello. My name is Dr. Elizabeth Weir." Exclaimed the strange machine though its radio. "I am the leader of an expedition of peaceful explorers. We will prep a team, including myself, to come through and introduce ourselves. We will redial in 30 minutes."

"Understood. We await your arrival." Niam smiled to himself, nervous and excited to be meeting a group of off-worlders, most likely humans.

30 Minutes Later

The stargate dialed up once more and activated. Niam had brought the entire Asuran Council to the gate room the meet the human delegation. The stared in fascination as an Athosian, a Satedan, and four humans from unknown parts of the universe came through the gate. A woman, shorter than the four men, stepped forward towards Niam.

"Thank you for graciously inviting us to your city. I'm Dr. Elizabeth Weir. To my left are Dr. Carson Beckett, Dr. Rodney McKay, and Lt. Col. John Sheppard. To my right are Ronan Dex and Teyla Emmagan."

"You are most welcome. I am Niam, recently appointed leader of my people. If you don't mind, where do you come from?"

The man named John stepped forward. "Well Teyla is Athosian, and Ronan is..."

"That much we already know. What we really wish to know is where the four of you come from." Asks Niam, gesturing towards the four Tau'ri."

"Why do want know where we come fro…" Sheppard exclaims defensively.

"It's alright, John." Elizabeth says "I've got this under control. We come from a far away planet, in the neighboring galaxy. We are currently staying at a long abandoned outpost of yours. This brings me to my first question for you. Do you have any spare ZPM's?"

"For what purpose what you nee…" Niam began to say. Then it hit him. Atlantis. They had to be from Atlantis. It explains why they were asking about ZPM's. It also explains why, when they first came through the stargate, they were shocked. 'They must've thought they went full circle.' Niam then continued to speak. "Of course we have spare ZPM's. We would graciously give some to the people currently inhabiting Atlantis."

Niam felt all eyes turn to him. He fellow Asurans stared in shock, while the color from the humans' faces drained. 'They look like they are about to loose consciousness.'

"And Atlantis," Niam continued, "Isn't ours. You must think that we are Ancients. We aren't. We are Asurans. Machines created by the Ancients for the purpose destroying the Wraith."

"You're machines?" Rodney said out of a now growing fear.

"Yes. I will explain our creation. At the height of the war with the Wraith, the Lanteans sought to create a weapon to kill the Wraith on a microscopic level. Turning to nanite technology, the Lanteans built nanites which were programmed with the destruction of the Wraith and self-replication. These creations were encoded with an aggression code that surpassed even that of the Wraith. The nanites, being intelligent, began replicating and interlocking, taking the most advanced form they knew—that of their creator. Fueled by a rage they could not understand, the machines begged the Lanteans to remove the aggression programming, but the Lanteans refused, for they had created base codes that prevented the Asurans from harming them, and they were desperate to find a weapon to destroy the Wraith. When they concluded that the Asurans would not be the weapon they sought, the Lantean Council sent a fleet of battleships to Asuras, wiping out everything, and deleted all references of our creation, save for Asuras' Stargate address."

"Wait a minute. If you were destroyed, how are you still here?" Asked Sheppard.

"John. He was probably getting to that. I apologize." Reprimanded Weir.

"Quite alright. Questions were to be expected. I will continue. Despite the Ancient's attempt, some of the nanites survived, and began to replicate again. After rebuilding, we began to attack the Wraith. The Wraith created a shut down code that deactivated our directive to attack them. This resulted in us returning to our homeworld where we isolated ourselves."

The Asuran next to Niam began to speak. "Dr. McKay, you are not a medical doctor, are you?"

"That is correct. I have four diplomas, degrees in physics and mechanical engineering, and 2 Ph.D.s."

"Arianna, shouldn't we wait to ask such a question?" Suggested Niam.

"I, and many others, do not believe so. If Dr. McKay is as intelligent as he claims then he might be able to remove the aggression code and unlock our safeguards." Replied Arianna.

"McKay," said Elizabeth. "I'll need a time frame before you begin."

"I can give you a random number, but I would have to look at the code. Now I just need someone to lead the way."

"Arianna will take you. Thank you Dr. McKay. This could mean our salvation. Now, Dr. Weir, where are you from? Wherever it is, we wish to formally ally ourselves with you, exchanging ambassadors if at all possible."

"We are from a planet called Earth, in the Milky Way galaxy. And the alliance and ambassador program sounds brilliant, though I will have to take it up with my superiors."

"In that case, we will need the gate address to Earth. We exceed the power requirements necessary to dial another galaxy."

"John, would you mind helping out with that?"

"Yeah, sure. The symbols are…"

2 Days Later

IOA Representative Richard Woolsey was waiting anxiously in the gate room at the SGC. He was startled by the gate suddenly activating. He was glad it

"Welcome to Earth, Mr. -Mr."

"Niam."

"I apologize for forgetting your name."

"Quite alright. Now, if you don't mind, please lead the way."

Niam, Arianna, and a few other Asurans were led to the conference room. Sitting around the table was SG1, General Landry, General O'Neill, Richard Woolsey, Dr. Weir, Dr. McKay, and some other IOA representatives.

"We thank you for allowing us this meeting. Let's Begin. The requirements we are looking for in an ambassador is that the chosen person has a family consisting of a spouse and children. We would also prefer that they have the ATA gene." Announced Niam before the IOA gathered at the SGC.

"These are specific requirements. However, there are already a few candidates chosen that meet these requi…"

"Actually," cut in General O'Neill. "There is one family in particular who I think you'll take an interest in…"
