A/n: First of all, I have to warn you that I've only seen and heard tidbits of SG-1's and SGA's latest season, so this sequel is based on what I think would happen if the Ori and Wraith showed up together. And I must also warn you that it may seem a little 'alternate reality,' but for all intents and purposes, it's meant to be 'what might've been or could be.' I realize the series premieres are in a month, so I have to hurry, but I doubt it will be anything like what they have planned for the show. But since I've read the spoilers, I think there may be a few similarities. There may also be a little ex duex machina (unconventional event) at the end. To tell you the truth, I have no idea where this is headed. You're in for an interesting ride, enjoy:) Btw, for those who haven't read the prequel, you don't have to, but I recommend reading it; it's one of my better fics:)

Disclaimer: I own neither SG-1 or SGA, although perhaps, I wish it were so.

Previously on 'What If'- Jack received a call… a call that he wouldn't have expected to hear after the Goa'uld had been wiped out. They had a greater threat now: The Ori. And they were headed straight for Earth…with the Wraith…

From the Book of Origins-
"And those who are prideful, and refuse to bow down, shall be laid low and made into dust."

"Then did Tyolus say to the people of the low plains, 'seek not wickedness amongst your neighbors, lest it find purchase in your own house'."

Those were the last words Daniel remembered uttering before the Ori assualted the Odyssey. And the last thing he remembered thinking before blacking out was that the Ori had won, and they were headed for Earth.

Back on Earth, Jack had just gotten off the phone with the President, who wasn't a happy camper after the dreaded news. The Ori and Wraith were coming, together no less. And the world was not ready.

From what General Hank Landry had said in a flushed voice on the phone, the Wraith had downloaded some information from one of the harddrives during the siege. No one was completely sure what they had managed to take, but after what happened during the Atlantian negotiations, the Wraith had definite plans on traveling to Earth for a new feeding ground. The Wraith had encountered the Ori Supergate on their way to Earth, but paid no attention to the battle. The Ori's 'influence' had extended to vasts parts of the galaxy and the Wraith knew that they would not benefit from an alliance with the Ori, because the Ori would want to convert them, and the Wraith would not comply. Yet, the Wraith could not terrorize the Ori themselves, merely their human followers. Either way, destruction was inevitable, once again.

For most of the clueless people on Earth, life continued as normal: nature flourished, love grew, and regular crime ensued. But, for the members of the SGC and parts of the Pentagon, panic and fear was in every soul. Some chose to hide it by diving deeper into finding a solution, while others kept quiet so as not to alarm the blissfully ignorant others. The President had to make a massive decision; he had to choose between finding a solution quietly or by uniting the world, and telling the public about the Stargate Program. This in itself would cause chaos and internal warring, but Earth was at stake, it would be courteous to warn others while possible, however futile the effort may be. It would be better to be 'in the know' than being hit blindly. According to the data assembled from all sources, scientists estimated the Wraith and Ori, either separately or together, would arrive in mere days. It would take at least a few hours to assemble an emergency meeting with the President's advisors and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, as well as a few ambassadors and experts from the SGC. But even before that, General Hank Landry had already declared and imposed DEFCON 1 at the SGC. They would have to create the first-ever multinational army, a world force. And as Senator Kinsey learned the hard way, no army or navy or air force could eradicate the Goa'uld; they would soon learn that the Wraith and Ori were far more formidable enemies.

After many hours of deliberation, the President decided to give a press conference to alert the public about what was to happen, and what had been happening for the past decade. He would sooner instill the possible horrors to the public, than let his people die in ignorance of a war they did not know about.

"My fellow Americans, you all must be wondering what this is all about. I am here to alert you about an impending attack by a species we have not encountered before; there is much to do in the little time we have. Despite of my warning you, please remain calm. We have resources from all over the world preparing to defend Earth against this new threat. But on the same line of defense, there is also a secret Air Force underground base called Stargate Command. For the past decade, elite forces of men and women have traveled through a ring-shaped device called a stargate. They travel through established wormholes to other planets in search of technology and alliances with other species. We had kept this program a secret, because we feared it would cause international disputes over the use of the stargate. At the moment, we have no choice but to alert you to how massive our situation has become. The stargate was found in Giza in 1928 and has only been operational for the past nine years. We didn't want to reveal this to you unless absolutely necessary, and I believe it is an unfortunate time, but you deserve to know as much as we do, and we are fully preparing for this assault. It is a risk we take trying to obtain knowledge about the universe, but we have made many alliances with advanced species, as well as enemies with others. We have already defeated two races of which are called the Goa'uld and the Replicators, and I have complete confidence that we can survive this one too. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. And now I introduce you to one of our foremost experts of the Stargate, the Head of Homeworld Security, Major General Jack O'Neill."

Jack, with his spiffy Air Force uniform and all, walked stiffly up to the podium.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, I know this is a lot of stuff to take in at once, it was a doozy for me when I first started. I know you have a lot of questions about what is going to happen, but let me tell you something. I once traveled through the stargate on a team called SG-1, and my second in command, as well as everyone at the SGC, are brilliant. They are out there right now, our first line of defense, and I'm here to tell you that there is no need to panic; we've been through worse. Trust me."

A gaggle of reporters started to riot and ask a million questions at a time.

"General, this raises a lot of questionsabout the freedom of the American people. How much information has the government been withholding from the people? Are we being 'ruled' by the government? What deems this information non-accessible by Americans; such information that would decide the fate of the entire world?"

"Oh for crying out loud. I knew one of you would bring that up. I know this sounds alarming, but I assure you, there have been plenty of people, Americans, who have a lot of say in what we have been doing and are still doing at the SGC. The NID for one, it's like the national inquirer department. They keep tabs on all the alien stuff we bring back. In fact, the Americans have always been informed; most just choose not to believe. If one guy were to go around blurting classified information about aliens and how we fight them, would you believe it? And there are a lot of civilians who know about the program, but just aren't authorized to talk about it. It's truly for the safety of everyone. And I know you want to say that it's the program's fault that we're in trouble now, but without the program, they would've destroyed us anyway, and we'd have no way to defend ourselves. They were coming whether we knew about them or not. The program being kept quiet made it easier for us to defend ourselves, while not alarming the public. I'm gonna be blunt about it, that's the way I am, and that's how I've been able to keep my head clean while doing this behind your back. I know what I'm doing is worth something, and that I shouldn't be telling you unless you can contribute a positive attitude about it. Now, I know you're thinking, since I'm telling you about this big secret, the situation must be really bad. Once again, I'm gonna be blunt. It's always bad. It's always one bad over another one. But there are good guys out there who are willing to help us. It's just time you knew."

A/n: So, what do you think? I know this chapter is a lot of reiteration of how and why the program has been kept quiet, but it needs to be established. That's how it's going to be when the people eventually find out. And just a warning, but there may be a little bit more reiteration about the allies and the enemies in the next chapter, but other than that…there's going to be a major shocker. Thanks for tuning in. Oh, and please feel free to give constructive criticism and suggestions.
