Shadow here and this redone fic is finally written enough that I feel comfortable posting the first chapter, R&R please and tell me what you think, Good or Bad I don't care.
Disclaimer: I do not own either Stargate Atlantis or Harry Potter.
Shepherd and his team run across someone Ronan recognises, when the man tries to run Ronan stuns him and the team have to take him back to Atlantis due to Ronan's actions, Carson finds something peculiar with his blood work and decides to talk to the man before he decides to let anyone else know.
"Ok, clearly the planets empty" Ronan said, for the fourth time that day, looking for civilisations that actively hunt the wraith was becoming rather annoying.
"I strongly agree" Rodney agreeing with someone was definitely something they would usually be worried about but having injured his wrist from an animal trap earlier nobody was surprised he was so eager to leave.
However they had no time to think about leaving for the day as the sound of weapon fire alerted them to a fight, holding their weapons at the ready they ran to where the sound came from, Shepherd signalled Teyla and Ronan to go left and circle around to the other side whilst he and Rodney circled right of what they saw was about half a dozen Wraith and an unknown amount of humans.
Seeing that none of the wraith had gained the upper hand in the fight, Shepherd scanned the area around the spot the wraith were aiming their weapons and saw someone wearing a cloak and hood with glowing green eyes, easily identifiable as a male from the type of armour he wore, was easily leaping from tree to tree and whilst he was on the ground was skilfully dodging wraith blasters and returning fire, seeing how good the man's aim was as he fired a few quick shots and took down two of the wraith Shepherd scanned the area for more fighters and found none.
Acting quickly when he saw the cloaked man was fighting all seven of the wraith alone (now only four) he opened fire on the wraith, Teyla and Ronan both doing the same, while Rodney stood back, not having been able to fire a gun with his injury.
Moving in on the wraith, Shepherd saw the rest of his team doing the same thing; firing at the wraith he hit one of them in the chest 4 times, by that time the other 3 wraith had been killed by Teyla, Ronan or the cloaked figure.
Taking a step towards the man, he was unprepared for a weapon not unlike Ronan's to be raised at him, putting his hands up slightly in a show of surrender he was unsure how to address the man and looked to Teyla, who seemed to be the only one bar him and Rodney who did not currently have a weapon in their hand.
"It is okay we won't hurt you, though my companions and I are wondering how you did that. The wraith would usually kill a single person easily; it is uncommon for me to see only one man be able to successfully fight off that amount of wraith"
Teyla had a naturally calm aura about her, something that Shepherd had picked up on after the first few times they had been in a situation when they had someone pull a weapon on them that was not either a wraith, power hungry, or a wraith worshiper.
"You are from Sateda, why would you be on a planet with no inhabitants? I was told the Satedan's all left for planets with civilisation" Ronan clearly recognised the clothing the man was wearing and wanted to know why one of his people would be on an empty planet all by himself, fighting more than half a dozen wraith on his own and not back on one of the planets the Satedan's escaped to.
"I may be from Sateda but It is not safe for the others to be near me, especially you Ronan, the wraith have hardly forgotten about you, it is only a matter of time before they find me" The calm tone of the mans voice, except for the way the man's voice cracked at Ronan's name, was something not quite expected and it seemed they would not get the chance to question the man much more as Ronan evidently recognised the voice.
Having someone like Ronan stalk up to you with a weapon in their hand would be the perfect time to run for most people. It seemed this mystery man was no different.
Ronan had shot the man before he had even taken a few steps, even though he seemed surprised, as if he thought he would have missed.
"humph, good thing I had it set to stun, he would have killed me if I shot him a second time with this thing" Ronan grunted, looking down at the man with a look of fondness that only one member of Team 1 recognised for what it was.
"You know him! And you didn't think to tell us before you shot him" Rodney huffed.
"How was I supposed to know who it was without seeing their face? I almost didn't recognise him as it was McKay"
Stammering to find an excuse for his thoughtless exclamation, Rodney then shut up when thinking of none, though everyone heard him mutter something along the lines of "Oh great cavemen reunited" while staring in horror between Ronan and the unconscious man.
Not asking for permission, Ronan secured his weapon back into its holster and picked the man up before beginning a steady walk back to the jumper; completely ignoring the looks he got from his teammates by how he was carrying him.
Shepherd, while not being the brightest person in the world, clearly picked up on Ronan's reluctance to stay in the area and so didn't reprimand him for walking off with who he thought of as 'the guy' as he didn't know his name, without his say so.
After about 10 minutes of walking and having picked up the pace quite a lot, much to the dislike of Rodney, they all froze at the faint sound of a wraith dart before running the last few stretches to where the jumper was parked, barely managing to all get inside as the beam from the dart glanced right over the edge of the jumper door.
Once safely in the jumper Shepherd and Rodney wasted no time in getting the jumper up in the air and dialling the gate address, only Teyla's quiet observation let them know what was in the sky.
"A hive ship"
It didn't take them long to figure out how they were found amongst all the tree's they were using as cover, directed at Ronan it came out as more of a statement than a question.
"He's a runner isn't he?"
Seconds later they flew through the wormhole and were back at Atlantis.
