Longships
Part 1
I stood between a gateway of two worlds, one my own and one remotely alien yet strangely human. The stargate glowed with it's faint iridescent power, the wormhole reflected the color of most of the stars of the universe it reflected blue though to regular human eyes. If you took every point of light and separated it one at a time, it would show every star the ancients had linked together. Every system in the link, every planet they had known of. Some strange, some like old earth. We had found out that culture as we know it had started in Egypt because of the uprising of the human race, that had spun a rebellion off. The system lord then Apophis had soon given up earth, and we were allowed to advance on our own creating an unique race. We had been one
of the only free human colonies, allowed to advance at our own rate and time. This had enable us to live the way we live today, to develop weapons to fight off the goa`uld.
We were running tests on the system today, we needed to find out all we could before it was to late. The system lords hated us, they hated the idea that slaves had been allowed to advance to the point that we had lately reached. Especially after the reopening of the stargate, and the discovery of several previously unknown elements. I stuck my hand through the portal, and felt a gentle warm sensation exactly the opposite of what you expect. You should expect coldness, or a moist sensation instead you felt just like you were at home. I retreated back to the bottom of the ramp, where at least 15 military soldiers stood with their machine guns ready. They were always prepared for any situation the human mind could complicate, they were even prepared to go beyond the human mind for the safety of the planet. That is why the stargate in the Arctic had to be shut down, for the worlds own safety and our own. I went up
to the boardroom, waiting for what General Hammond would say today. I respected the man, but he frankly got on my nerves really badly sometimes.
He was not there, but that was half-way good, that is when the alarm went off. The noise a pulsating sound repeating it self over and over, red lights were flashing as the base went to defcon 3. It was automatic when the base was in danger of being penetrated, we all rushed to our places in the main control tower. It was crowded with frightened soldiers, but they were the ones that had signed up for the assignment. The soldiers at the bottom of the ramp took their places, nothing happened. We all stood there holding our breath, that is when the person stepped through. It looked like a human lady, she was about I say 18-25 around that age. She stood there rigid against the blue background of the portal, her black hair framed against it a silver circlet held it from her violet eyes which were strangely almond shaped. They were blazing with an anger not human, but some other spices most likely. She wore a rich crimson garment from the middle ages, wearing wide flowing sleeves a draping blood-red cape and a full dress. She stood there not knowing the danger she was in, but the men down there. The hard trained soldiers often pushed to their limits by the hard work on the base, they did not have the hearts to shoot so beautiful a woman. So she stood where no alien had ever stood without danger to it's life-force, she stood there as if she was at peace with world. Even though her eyes betrayed her true intentions, she held her head high as she descended the ramp.
No one made a single move to stop her, she moved
gracefully like a cat her moves were silent. I had an odd feeling if you threw her off the roof of a building she would land on her feet, no one said a thing. We were all sort of holding our breath, we did not move we did not even blink. She moved closer, Sam was shaking with fear. So was everybody else, I looked down at my hands they were shaking to. She started to come up the stairs, you could smell a type of perfume lovelier then any here on earth. As if made by the purest flowers of the world, I stood my place when the door knob started to turn. The heavy metal door swung open, she stepped in. She was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen, she was what I would call mostly perfect. She came over to me, and said "the longships are coming."
I sat up in my sleep, I was drenched with sweat. I had never had so vivid of a dream, where I could feel what I touched. Where I could dream without waking up, it had felt like it was real. I climbed out of my cot and tangled myself out of my sheets. They were wet, I had sweated enough to drench them. I looked over at the clock it was only 1:59AM, I had a whole night ahead of me. I stretched and walked across the room to my books, and selected one called the Vikings. I looked up longship, a longship turned out to be a type of ancient boat. What did the girl in the dream mean, did she want me to find a long ship?
I sat there reading on various subjects until my alarm clock went off, I stood up and stretched. I threw on some clothes and walked out of the room, to run into Jack. Jack was in his usual grumpy morning mood, and just pushed me out of the way and went down the hall. T'ealc was the next to get up, he was in his bright morning sunshine mood and was actually smiling. Sam was the next to get up, she looked like she felt awful. She staggered into the hall, and used the wall to keep herself up. She dragged herself the rest of the way down the hall, I merely shrugged and went on.
I ate breakfast, it was a bowl of gruel. Nasty stuff it was, I shuddered at the first taste of it. But I swallowed it down, I got up after breakfast and went to my research room. I grabbed a couple of books and read until the alarm started to flash and the pulsating noise infested my eardrums with a ringing. I went out of my room, and went down the hall. I crept into the main tower room, everybody there looked like they were frozen except they were all shaking. I looked down at the ramp, there stood the lady of my dreams. She seemed even more real this time, but the only difference was that she was real this time. For I was not dreaming, she looked up she had a smile on her face. She was someone to be feared, she raised her index finger at
me. And pointed I felt a odd sensation, and I slipped into unconcoucus.
So how did you like my feeble attempt to write a fic about Stargate Sg-1? This is my first fic in this section so please be nice. Please review if you have it in your hearts, because I'll review you back even if you flame me which you probably will:) Oh yeah, the whole thing is in Daniel's POV.
