There has been an attack on the stranded expedition members. The Collective has invaded their base and taken one of their soldiers, Jackie O'Neill.
Dani peeked around a corner and nearly got smashed in the face by an airman's gun.
Once the man saw her he nearly dropped the p-90. "Thank goodness, I was going crazy. I thought..."
"Shhh." Dani shushed him.
She heard marching, probably Collective soldiers again.
"Let's go." She whispered, leading the man down the hallway and out to the gateroom.
The gateroom was starting to get very crowded because they hadn't dialed out yet and they were gathering most of the expedition members in a central location.
Dani found Major Hofius talking to a group of Marines.
"Sir?" She asked when the major was done.
"What is it, sergeant?" Hofius asked.
"Everybody's here, we're awaiting your orders." Dani reported.
Hofius nodded. "Alright. Find Captain Kirsen and dial the gate. Send all nonmilitary personnel off world, except for a squad of Marines."
"Yes, sir." Dani took off into the crowd, trying to find the captain. She found him talking to a couple of the scientists.
"What're the major's orders?" Kirsen asked.
"Dial it up." Dani replied.
Kirsen gave her a curt nod and went over to the DHD.
As Kirsen was dialing, Hofius stood in front of the crowd.
"Listen up!" He yelled, the people quieted. "When you reach the other side... Never mind. Good luck."
The gate finished dialing and the civilians started walking through, all except for Connor. Hofius figured it was a good idea to keep him around in case anything went awry.
After the civilians were away, Hofius ordered the teams to move out.
They swept the base top to bottom, but the soldiers were doing a good job staying hidden.
Finally they found a group of Collective soldiers ransacking the mess.
"Well," One of the men said, "at least we found them."
Dani smirked. "Yeah, taking all our food."
"Ideas, anyone?" The third member of the team asked.
"Leave 'em. We've got bigger fish to fry." Dani said.
Two hours later they gave up and returned to base. Dani and the other team leaders reported their findings to Major Hofius then awaited orders.
"This is going to be a long day." Dani muttered to herself.
On the Collective ship ...
"Jackie O'Neill." The Collective soldier said in his oddly deep voice.
"That's my name, genius." Jackie said sarcastically.
The guard touched the end of his staff to her neck and pain shot up Jackie's spine.
"Did you really need to do that?" She asked.
"You must learn that no one defies the great Collective." The soldier replied.
If that wasn't just a little bit over the top. Jackie thought.
"Indeed, our followers have great zeal." Jackie turned to see a Collective man standing in the doorway. To the guard the man said, "We have gotten what we came for."
"And that is?" Jackie wondered.
"The location of Earth. Soon your feeble planet shall be on their knees before the Collective and all will know of our power."
