It's Not Easy Being Green
Greetings, Earthers. This is me first story in a while, so it might take a bit to get the ball rolling. Just yell at me and I will eventually update. Anywho, this is a Stargate SG-1 crossover with Teen Titans, the animated series, for the most part. This part of it mostly takes place in the SG1 universe, and there is no antropic cascade failure, because there are no characters that appear in both universes. The POV with shift through the story, but it's usually third person and pretty easy to figure out. Drop me a line if you have any questions.
The main character is Victoria Arella Logan, daughter of BB and Raven.
Future chapters will have explanations as necessary.
Prologue
Branches tore at green skin and black hair as she sprinted through the dense foliage. Shouts erupted behind her, spurring on even faster as blasts of energy exploded against trees left and right.
Where the hell am I? The thought briefly flitted through her mind as she vaulted over a fallen log. One minuet I'm with Mom and Uncle R fighting the crazy guy with the ray gun and the next, these guys are all over my ass.
Another blast went off, right where her head had been a few seconds before.
Crap!
Over the noise of her pursuers, she could hear something ahead.
Machine guns? Primitive, but I'll take it over these guys any day. I just hope their friendly…
She burst through the tree line, only to run straight into a guy in camo and glasses, sending them both tumbling. Shaking her head and re-aligning her vertebrae, the strange green girl looked at the person she had bowled over.
Ooo, pretty eyes. FOCUS! Weird guys shooting at me for no apparent reason that are RIGHT BEHIND ME.
"Hey, are you ok?" His voice is nice too, ARGH.
"Yeah, fine, except for the weird guys chasing me while trying to shoot me with their nasty-lookin' sticks." She leaped to her feet, ignoring the shocked expression on the man's face.
"You know English?" the guy, who was kinda cute, looked at her puzzled.
"Whatever gave you that idea?" That was definitely her mother's sarcastic streak.
A large crash sounded near by and the girl's head whipped towards it.
"Not that this isn't a fun conversation, but do you know anywhere that we can go to, like, hide?"
"Um, sure, yeah i-"
"Great! You're driving. Hop on."
He blinked and, in the place that the girl had been was a large green mare. Not really knowing what had happened, nor caring as another blast hit the tree next to him, he got on the horse and it sped off.
PAGEBREAK
This was supposed to be a standard, routine mission. Go to the planet, check out some ruins, go home. Simple, right?
Unfortunately, Daniel Jackson probably should have learned that 'Simple' was not in his job description and way above his pay grade.
That's why, on this planet that was seemingly inhabited by a low-level aboriginal population, he found himself being plowed into by a green and black blur.
Blinking to regain some focus, he sat up to help, what he discovered, was a green girl with black hair and a black-and-blue…dress?, who was re-arraigning herself so her feet were below her spleen and so on.
"Hey, are you ok?" The moment the words left his mouth, he berated himself. There is no way that she could speak -
"Yeah, fine, except for the weird guys chasing me while trying to shoot me with their nasty-lookin' sticks." The girl sprang up, ignoring his offered hand as well as his jaw, which was currently at their feet.
"You know English?" Brilliant observation, there, doctor.
"Whatever gave you that idea?" Was that sarcasm? Ok, something is definitely up, here.
A loud explosion ripped through the woods, and the girls head snapped towards the noise, her pointed ears twitching.
"Not that this isn't a fun conversation, but do you know anywhere that we can go to, like, hide?" Hide? Oh, yeah. The weird guys with the nasty sticks. Daniel got a sickening feeling that she meant a group of Jaffa.
"Um, sure, yeah i-"
"Great! You're driving. Hop on." Driving? Driving what?
He blinked and, in the place that the girl had been was a large green mare. Not really knowing what had happened, nor caring as another blast hit the tree next to him, he got on the horse and it sped off.
PAGEBREAK
"Daniel, where the hell are you?" Colonel Jack O'Neill shouted into his radio, picking off another few Jaffa as he did so.
"Any response, sir?" Major Sam Carter asked when he ducked behind the ruins that were their cover.
He shook his head. "Not yet. But if he forgot to change the batteries, then so help me-" the rest of his sentence was cut off by a staff blast above their heads. Carter couldn't help but crack a small smile before standing and letting off another volley of shots.
PAGEBREAK
Daniel was becoming increasingly disoriented as trees flew past them. Literary. The terrain had become more uneven as they approached the Gate's location, and it made it harder for the…Horse? He wasn't really sure if she was a horse, a human, or a pterodactyl, which is what she had turned into. Hence the 'flying.'
Hold on tight.
Ok, where had that come from? He looked down at the creature below him. No, it couldn't be. The dinosaur turned its head, looking, no glaring at him.
Yes, it was me. Now, HOLD ON TO YOUR PANTS!
Completely baffled, Daniel wrapped his arms around her neck just in time for her to turn a corkscrew and fly straight up. The scientist scrambled for a better hold as she dove, narrowly avoiding several staff blasts as she grabbed a Jaffa with her feet and tossed him into another.
So, which way to this hiding place?
"Uh…" Daniel looked around, trying to get his bearings as they rose above the trees. An explosion caught his eye, drawing them to the clearing that the Gate was in. "There!" he pointed, tapping her shoulder to indicate which direction to go in. She turned, speeding towards the battle.
"Daniel! Get your goddamn ass to the Gate! We are under fire, repeat, we are under fire!" his radio blared to life as they got closer.
Friends of yours?
"Yeah. Do you think you can hurry up a bit, please?"
I'm going as fast as I can in this form, dude. Dinos weren't exactly built for speed.
"Can you take another?"
Not easily, with you on. If I did, you could fall off.
Daniel looked down. It was a very long way to the ground. "This is fine. Will you be able to help once we're there?"
Will your friends all be wearing green?
"Yeah."
Good, then I'll aim for the guys in skirts. Just one thing.
"What?"
That clearing isn't what you meant by safety, is it? How she could sound skeptical in a thought, Daniel had no idea, but there it was.
"No. There's a giant stone ring there that is a portal to our home planet."
Then I take it we're not in Kansas any more.
"How did you-"
Hold on tight! She cut him off, diving for the ground. At the last second, she pulled up, changing into a Tyrannosaurus Rex and landing between the Jaffa and SG-1.
PAGEBREAK
In the past two years three months, Colonel O'Neill had seen a lot of crazy stuff. This, however, took the cake. He stared for a moment, blinking a few times to make sure he saw right, 'cause there was no way that he just saw Daniel ride into the clearing on a green pterodactyl. And it was impossible that that same pterodactyl turned into an equally green T-Rex and started attacking the Jaffa who had been shooting at them.
"Sir…?" Carter's befuddled voice broke him out of his thoughts.
"No, Carter, you are not crazy. I see the dinosaur, too." Never thought he would ever say that.
"And is that…?"
"It certainly looks like Daniel on its back, Carter. I just hope he knows more about what the hell is going on then I do."
PAGEBREAK
She had no idea what that 'Gate' was, but she had a feeling that it was the portal thing that Daniel - his friend on the radio had called him that, right? - had talked about. And given three guesses, she would pick that giant rock ring with the orange chevrons was it.
Landing hard as the king of lizards, she roared, sending many of the attackers screaming away. She charged, bowing her head and plowing through a group of them.
A cry on her back reminded her that Daniel was still there, and she changed to a horse, running to the giant circle and stopping to let him off. Once he slid off her back, she turned to the two people who were gaping at her and the one who just stared. She morphed back into a human and waved.
"Hi. I'm Victoria." The world started spinning, and she keeled over backwards, landing flat and jarring her spine. She felt something wet on her back as Daniel yelled, and knew no more.
"Can somebody please explain to me what the hell is going on?" O'Neill yelled in confusion as Daniel rushed foreword to check the green girl.
"I, too, would like an explanation, Daniel Jackson." Teal'c said, moving towards the group and placing the end of his staff on the ground.
"Yeah, I bet everyone would, but maybe that could wait until we get back to the SGC." The archeologist sighed in relief as he found Victoria's pulse. He gingerly checked around her neck for any injuries, and his blood froze when he felt wetness on her back.
"Oh crap." He hurriedly turned her on her side, revealing a small, round aria of charred flesh. "Sam, can you dial out?" Daniel asked, pulling out a bandage and pressed it to the wound.
The sound of Jaffa approaching reached their ears and she rushed to the DHD, wincing at the sight of the angry wound. Daniel rolled Victoria onto her back and gently lifted her up.
"Hold on a sec, Daniel. How do we know that she's not a threat?" O'Neill asked, stepping towards him.
Shouts could be heard coming closer as the wormhole opened.
"Jack, she saved our lives. If it weren't for her, then I would be stranded and you would be either be organizing a rescue or trying to hold down the Gate."
"Sir!" The two men turned to see a much larger group of Jaffa flooding into the clearing.
"Carter, send the IDC!" O'Neill yelled, opening fire into the oncoming enemies.
"Jack, we can't just leave her here!" Daniel roared, crouching behind a ruin.
"Fine, but you're explaining this to Hammond!" the colonel yelled back, laying down cover fire and moving towards the gate. Teal'c and Sam ran through, closely followed by Daniel and the girl. Jack ran up, shooting one last volley into the crowd as he backed through the event horizon.
A/N: a bit of a cliffie, but you would come back if it wasn't, now would you. I realize it's starting a bit slow, but it will pick up. I promise. Please review!
