summery : think you know Rodney McKay think again come and take a look see as his friends find out about his past that he tried so hard to hide

a/n some things will be different in this story like Rodney & his sister get on Jack O'Neill is still the leader of sg1 but Mitchell & vala are also on the the team also i don't have a beta so any and all mistakes are mine Rodney & Sheppard can be taken as friends or it can be taken as slash but i did write it more towards slash there may also be parts of this story later on that may upset people don't like don;t read rating may go up later anyway that is enough of my rambling on

a/n i went back & edited this chapter and hopefully made this easier to read for everyone new chapter to come soon

disclaimer : i own nothing seriously so it would be a waste of yours & my time to sue me

"THE TRUTH ABOUT DR RODNEY MCKAY

If anyone were to look into the conference room they would have seen a group of people sitting around the briefing room discussing what they would all be doing that day was Elizabeth weir the head of the expedition , major John Sheppard leader of the military of Atlantis , Rodney McKay the head of the science department , telya , ronon the other 2 members of Ag-1, Dr Carson Beckett , Dr radek zelenka 2nd in command of the Atlantis science department and the visiting sg1

weir asked John " is their anything else we should know about this mission major Sheppard " " no I think that about covers it " "OK good Rodney is their anything I need to know or anything you need ? "

but Rodney didn't answer in fact he hadn't said much since coming into the briefing room which was unusual for him in fact John thought it was very worrying everyone was now looking at him to see what the matter was he looked terrible like he hadn't slept in weeks pale face black bags under his eyes Elizabeth tried again

" hem hem Rodney? " Rodney jumped about 10ft in the air at the sudden noise and snapped "what can't you see I'm fucking busy" everyone was staring at him like he had lost his mind he never swore or spoke to Elizabeth like that as they were quite close they were about to call him on it when he stood up & threw a piece of paper on the desk turned his back and walked out of the room without so much as a word

everyone just sat in their seats in a state of shock until general O'Neill picked up the paper & read it out loud for everyone to hear

Elizabeth,

for personal reasons which I won't go into I'm stepping down as head of the science department and am leaving Atlantis to go back to earth. I hope you give my job & my place on the team to radek as he can handle it. I hope I haven't caused you too much trouble

again I'm sorry

Rodney

the room was so silent you couldn't hear a pin drop until all of a sudden Sheppard jumped up shouting "hell no that stupid idiot I don't think so " then like Rodney ran out the room with everyone else on his heels
