A/N: I may be wrong in the section about transwarp drive. From what I read in the Wikia, Starfleet failed at achieving transwarp - and have yet to be successful on a field test. If i am, then please someone let me know so that I could correct it.

Air Force Academy Hospital, Colorado Springs, 2025.

Willow was pacing the floor, her arms crossed over her chest, and her eyes red from tears, at the Air Force Hospital waiting room. It was a few minutes later that General O'Neill rushed in with the current head of Homeworld Command, General Landry, who was visiting General O'Neill who had moved back to Colorado Spring following his retirement and marriage to the current commander of the SGC, General Samantha Carter; followed by Dawn and Jon, and hugged the redhead.

"Red?" asked Jon as Willow pulled back from General O'Neill before Dawn hugged her tight, "what happened?"

Willow told them that the Trust seemed to have been successful with the living weapons research, that they had created genetically engineered living weapons that managed to infiltrate them from the inside.

"I… I don't know how.. how they got in but.. but they did," said Willow as she wiped tears while nurses and doctors were running around from one room to another, "It… I… I was only a few minutes by car…. A few minutes away, and…"

"Easy, easy," said General Landry as he placed a hand on Willow's shoulder.

"Once I got to the seventh floor, I.. I... saw the dead officers and the busted camera, and… then I heard the alarm go off," said Willow shaking her head, "I called NORAD and told them we had a code red situation, and I then called for the elevator but… but there was no luck. I used my T.K to pry the elevator doors open and… and there was a hole on the bottom of the car… the.. the Trust clones punched through the floor of the car and made it down the shaft. I.. I don't know how they were so fast, but… but by the time I got into the….."

"Red," said General O'Neill as he held onto Willow's shoulders while she lowered her head and wiped her eyes, "how many clones?"

"Ten clones," mumbled Willow as her voice broke. She coughed and then looked back up, "they… they started from the twenty eighth floor. I… I floated down to the twenty-eight floor and saw that the elevator doors were ripped open. I.. I think they were already in there for five minutes and… and I.. I don't know why it took so long for the alarms to go off and… oh God. The hallway had… had bodies and.. and I heard gunshots and screams. I ran and… and saw one of them break Walter's neck."

"Oh God," said General Landry.

"I… I killed the clone," said Willow, "used my T.K to break his neck before going after the others."

"Carter and Faith?" asked General O'Neill as he recalled the young woman in front of him calling him in an hysterical voice that something happened at the SGC, and that both General Carter and Faith were badly injured, among others. But before Willow could say anything, she saw a young blonde haired girl running towards them with a bald man next to her.

"Aunt Willow! Jack! Where's mom?"

"Debbie," said Willow as she hugged General Carter's daughter tightly, "she's… she's still critical but… but the doctors said that she's going to be alright, she's going to be alright."

"Willow?" asked Jacob, in a panicked voice, as the redhead looked up at the man while Debra hugged General O'Neill tight, "your call was.."

"There was an attack," said General Landry as he looked at Jacob and then at Debra who lifted her head and then turned her body towards the current head of Homeworld Command, "the clones that were stolen by the Trust were used to create more living weapons. I.. I guess they knew the SGC was a threat and… and now… by the time Colonel Rosenberg and two other teams managed to kill all ten of the clones… they had already killed fifty-five personnel, and injured forty."

"Including Faith and General Carter," said Willow, "they ripped off Faith's arm, and… and broke several of General Carter's bones by beating her and then throwing her through two windows; her office and the briefing room window in one throw. At least I think so… I caught her just before she hit the Gateroom floor."

"Oh God," said Debra as she placed her hand over her mouth while Jacob rushed to her side, holding onto her with General O'Neill. Willow continued to say that it was thanks to the genetic therapy that General Carter hadn't died immediately from her wounds.

"The clone that threw her is dead," said Willow before telling them that she rushed back down to the control room, and down the stairs where Faith was hunched against the wall unconscious after the redhead used her bio-electric abilities to cauterise the wound to stop blood flow from her shoulder, "I healed what I could after checking up on Faith, but… but the other clones were in the base and…"

"You did what you could," said Jacob, "Sam and Faith are still alive."

"Critical, but alive," said Willow nodding her head.

"And Faith?" asked Jon.

"The surgeons are attaching one of our new prosthetic limbs," said Willow before she took a deep breath, and then continued to speak, "the carbon-trinium-naquada alloy version that Area 51 is working on."

"Are they all dead?" asked Debra, her hand rolled into a fist.

"The clones? Yeah," said Willow, "they're all dead. Some of the survivors and I then disabled the anti-beaming technology in the base and had the Prometheus Station beam us out. The Prometheus, Europa, and the Shen Long are already searching for the other clones."

"I've already notified the President, the Security Council, the BPRI, and Area 51," said General Landry, "We've got Angel, and Spike getting ready to sniff out, literally, anything on recent transfers at those bases. They're checking out the BPRI, which just went on lock-down, with four Slayers."

"How… how did they get through?" asked Debra shaking her head.

"It's possible that they got through our defences using cloaked ships," said General Landry, "that's our weakness, we still don't have way to detect cloaked vessels."

"I recommend activating Directive One, Hank," said General O'Neill as he looked at General Landry. Homeworld Command Directive One was an order that, once activated, would require the President of the United States and his Cabinet, as well as their families, to be sent away to the Alpha site in case of alien invasion. The President would be in regular contact with Homeworld Command and the SGC from the off-world site through the IOA on Earth. Despite the IOA having been restructured due to the infiltration by the Trust, the relations between the organization and Homeworld Command and the SGC were still cool. But there was no choice, the IOA would have to be the intermediary between the civilian government and the military.

"And I want Red to be with whoever the IOA sends over," said General O'Neill, "no more micro-nullifiers that neutralise her abilities… this has gone too far now. Red will stay with whoever's assigned, occasionally scanning their minds to make sure we don't get screwed again."

"I agree," said General Landry nodding his head, "I'll talk with the President and the Joint Chiefs."

"Ummm…. Colonel Rosenberg?" asked a doctor as he walked out of a room. Willow and the others turned towards him as he told them that the injured General Carter was going to be alright; that her body, thanks to the genetic therapy and the Ancient gene, was already healing the internal injuries and broken bones after they had been reset.

"And Faith?" asked Willow while Debra hugged Jacob.

"She lost a lot of blood," said the doctor turning towards Willow, "but if you hadn't cauterized the wound when you did, then she'd be dead from blood loss. Right now, we're about to attach her nerves to her new arm, and… and we'll know almost immediately if it works. She, General Carter, and the rest of the survivors are still in critical condition; and we'll get a prognosis on their recovery when they wake-up, which we hope is by tomorrow night."

"Thank you, doc," said General O'Neill as Jacob put his hand on his shoulder while Debra hugged him.

The SGC was only the first salvo in two attacks that day. Once all sites were secured once again six months later, Directive One was rescinded and the President returned to Earth and took his place as the leader of the free world. But it wasn't over, unknown to anyone in the SGC or Homeworld Command, there would nuclear strikes six months later in various cities that would eventually collapse the world into death and destruction. At the same time as the attack on t he SGC, the BPRI was attacked just after the SGC, but that attack was thwarted by both Angel, Spike, and the Slayers who were ready for the clones.

The attacks that would take place a year later, the responsibility would initially be placed on terrorists from the middle-east, but the truth came out a few hours after the collapse of Big Ben and the destruction of the Houses of Parliament – an organization called The Brotherhood of Ba'al; terrorist cells of genetically augmented living weapons, transmitted a video over all remaining airwaves taking credit for the deaths and destruction caused by nuclear fire… and they promised more to come before sending their manifesto to every media outlet that remained on Earth.

Their creed? Augments were the future, death to the human race.

USS Enterprise, geosynchronous orbit above Starfleet Command, an hour later; 2375.

Captain Picard looked out the window of the briefing room at the ships that were orbiting the Earth. The Breen attack on Earth shook Starfleet to its core; it was an attack that no one in Starfleet Command had anticipated. Not even the Klingons had attempted to attack Earth directly during hostilities between the Empire and Starfleet. Then there was the case of the mysterious ship; Picard was still wondering where that ship had come from. He was unaware of any race, and Data confirmed, that had ships of that configuration or that form of warp drive; in fact, once the ship left, Data later told the Captain that he detected no form of warp drive on the ship. Leading the Captain to keep on wondering, while in his Ready Room writing his report, and now while looking out the window, at what space-faring civilization didn't use some form of warp drive. Turning around as the door behind him hissed open, the man nodded his head at his key personnel; Lt. Commander Data, Counsellor Troi, Commander Riker, and Lt. Commander La Forge who took their seats around the briefing room table. It was a few minutes later, while the Captain and the others were discussing the reports and what happened an hour ago with each other, did the same door open once again. The officers then stood up as Admiral Paris walked into the room with two escorts from the Enterprise.

"Thank you, Ensigns," said the Captain as Admiral Paris nodded his head at them. The two of them walked out of the briefing room, the door hissing closed behind them, while the Captain offered a seat to the Admiral and introduced everyone. Once everyone had seated down, the official briefing began.

"We have checked every Federation, Starfleet, and even Earth database," said Admiral Paris as he leaned forward, placing his arms on the table in front of him, "but there is no mention of any Colonel Lisa Summers, nor were there any mention of the word 'Tau'ri'."

"I have examined the language databases of every species on record," said Data as he looked at the Admiral, "there is none that mentions that specific word. However, our scanners did indicate human life signs aboard the Persephone."

"Data's correct," said Troi, "I sensed amazement, joy, and some anger from the people on board."

"Anger at what?" asked the Admiral.

"The Breen," said Troi shaking her head, "it's odd, almost as if they were angry that the Earth was being attacked. While a majority felt as if they were happy to be in orbit over Earth. I mean it's like the feelings one gets when returning to a place they've rarely seen, but have heard about… I… I can't explain it."

"Colonel Summers did mention that they've been watching Earth," said Riker as he looked around the table, "maybe there's a cloaked ship somewhere? Using the war as a distraction to watch the planet?"

"But to what end?" asked the Admiral, "why watch Earth? What's the purpose?"

"Are we talking about a possible invasion?" asked Troi in surprise, "I didn't get that feeling from the crew, if was more like a sense of relief. I didn't sense any ill intent."

"So not an invasion," said Riker, with Troi nodding her head, "but that still doesn't explain how easily they took on the Breen, and why we haven't heard anything from the Tau'ri, until now."

"The weapons they used were high intensity plasma beams," said Data, "and their power source is something I have not seen before, the output is.. fascinating."

"What's even stranger is the lack of any warp drive or a deflector dish," said Geordie.

"I believe I know the reason why the ships does not require a deflector dish," said Data as he pressed a button on the PADD in front of him, and then everyone turned to the forward screen as a schematic of the Persephone came up, "it's an unique alloy of carbon, and two other unknown metals. Combined, it creates a shield around the beings inside, protecting them against micrometeorite impacts and radiation. In addition, I have been able to detect an unknown form of subspace radiation emanating from the hull of the ship… the same radiation that we detected when the Persephone opened a breach before accelerating into it."

"They have a different form of faster than light propulsion?" asked Troi.

"Yes," Data replied, "somehow, these Tau'ri managed to open a breach that leads into a region of subspace."

"I always thought the power requirements for opening a breach was massive?" asked Riker, "we've had our own experiments into transwarp and those failed miserably. And here is a race that managed to travel through subspace?".

"It does need a massive amount of power," Geordie replied, "we've heard of subspace travel, but because of the power demands, we've failed in opening a breach. I would so love to take a look at their energy source."

"Perhaps we would be able to meet again," said the Captain.

"There are a lot of thing we need to talk about," said the Admiral, "but in regards to this situation involving the Persephone, we can hold it off until the end of the war. Right now, we have to concentrate on the data we were given by the Persephone."

The Admiral then turned to Captain Picard and asked him and his ship to remain in orbit over Earth for the next few days, that he wanted the expertise of Lt. Commander Laforge and Data to go through the specifications of the energy dampening weapon in order to find a viable defence against it.

"Understood, Admiral," Picard replied before getting onto the current state of the Dominion War.

Deep Space, a hundred light years from planet M7T-603, twenty-three hours since Persephone left Lantea's orbit.

A blue hued breach opened in space, and out of it accelerated the Persephone before it slowed down and turned to port, heading towards a fleet of ships; the Aurora-Class vessels Vantage, and Sunnydale; and two Colonial vessels, the new Mercury class Battlestars Galactica and Atlantia.

"Major Daniels," said Lisa as she got off her seat, and looked over towards the dark-skinned young man behind the console to her left, who stood up and walked towards her, "you have the bridge."

"Understood, ma'am," he replied before Lisa nodded her head.

"Beam me to the Vantage." A buzzing noise and a flash of white light later, Lisa found herself at the briefing room on the Vantage, the flagship of the Tau'ri fleet, and greeted by the Commander of Task Force Omega; General Jon O'Neill.

"Summers," said General O'Neill with a smirk on his face as Colonel Mayweather of the Sunnydale, Admiral Adama of the Galactica, and Commander Sarah Giles of the Atlantia were standing around a table which was projecting a three-dimensional image of three different planets. The three of them were standing around the table while Jon patted Lisa's shoulder and guided her to the table while asking if she really saw the Enterprise as her report to Willow suggested.

"Yes, sir," smiled Lisa as she reached the table while a wide grin appeared in the General's face, "Starfleet and all…. Even talked to Picard."

"Don't tell me he…."

"Same accent," replied Lisa who chuckled while the General jerked his fist and whispered that he should have been there too, "don't worry, sir… I haven't actually seen him, so I don't know if he looks like who we think he looks like."

"Ok," said the General waving his hands, "after we take care of the Wraith, you, Jack, Teal'c, Daniel and me.. and your dad, are gonna talk and compare notes… oh, does Xander already know?"

"I asked General Rosenberg not to tell dad," chuckled Lisa, "I want to see his face when I tell him."

"Good call," said the General as the both of them reached the table. The General then motioned towards the people standing around, "Gentlemen and lady, you know Colonel Lisa Summers."

"Colonel," nodded Colonel Mayweather, a small smile on his face.

"Colonel," nodded Lisa, and then nodded her head at Admiral Lee Adama, the man having taken over his father's position a hundred years ago after the older man retired, and moved to live on Kobol with his wife.. the former President of the Twelve Colonies of Kobol, Laura Roslin.

"And you know Commander Giles," said Admiral Adama as the Commander walked around the table and gave Lisa a hug, before stepping back and nodding her head. Lisa and the dark haired young woman, the third daughter of Rupert Giles and Anna, one of the original Number Three Cylons who were relocated to Eden by the SGC following the near extinction of their race by the Ori, along with General O'Neill, then looked up at the three planets.

"Our Tok'ra intel suggests that the majority of Wraith warriors, commanders, and their last two queens will make their final stand on these worlds," said General O'Neill, "the Asgard and the Colonials have already run a recon mission while cloaked around these three planets, and all we've been able to detect are seven Hive Ships on each planet that are nearly completed, and a total of fourteen cruisers orbiting the three planets as a defensive measure. Of course they have their darts as a fighter screen… but they shouldn't be that much of a problem. There are tens of thousands of Wraith, and their cloning facilities… so we take them all out."

"These creatures are nearly gone," said Admiral Adama, the former Apollo, as he pointed at the three planets, "we'll be dividing our forces into three groups, and attacking them simultaneously. We'll use their own tactics against them; we have three teams on three friendly worlds who will dial the Stargate on each of the Wraith planets just thrity seconds before we exit hyperspace. Since there will be an incoming wormhole on the Wraith planets, they will not be able to escape."

"Sounds like a good plan, sir," said Commander Giles, "I take it we have full authority to nuke the planets?"

"The Alliance Security Council has given us full authority to use nuclear weapons," said General O'Neill, "each of our ships have three of the Horizon weapons systems, we'll be firing two of those towards the main ship growing facilities, destroying the majority of the Wraith and the ships that're still being grown. Any Wraith ships that manage to get out, we'll be there shooting them down. The other Horizon system will head for the closing facilities. Your ships have naquada tipped bunker busters too… launch everything we have."

"This is it," said Lisa nodding her head, "real peace is so close."

"We'll be doing what the Ancients couldn't do, neutralizing the Wraith threat," said General O'Neill, "there'll still be a few left, but not enough to endanger the galaxy. Any questions?"

Persephone, Bridge, an hour later.

A bright white light deposited Lisa an hour later on the bridge of her ship, and she nodded at Major Daniels who stood up and went back to his console. In the meantime, Lisa sat back down and took in a deep breath. The Tau'ri and their allies had been battling the Wraith for forty years since coming out of time dilation, and now they were so close to destroying the very race that defeated the Ancients.

"Colonel," said another officer to her left, "we are prepared to enter hyperspace."

"Input the coordinates," said Lisa as she leaned on her seat, "prepare the three Horizon weapon systems, prepare our Mark Eight bunker busters, all pilots report to your Arrows. Attention, crew of the Persephone… we will be entering hyperspace for what could be our final battle against the Wraith threat. We will be preventing any escape from the planet thanks to teams dialling in the Stargate address from another world, basically we're using their own tactics against them. The Vantage, and the Galactica will be heading to one planet, the Atlantia and the Sunnydale will be heading to another planet, and we get the honour of the final world. Let's end this war today, and then we go back home. Battle stations."

As everyone got to their consoles, Lisa called for another officer, who turned in her seat and looked back at the blonde. Lisa then ordered the young woman to contact the team on M6T-911, the team that was going to be dialing into the Stargate, and inform them to begin the four and a half minute countdown.

"Open the hyperspace window," said Lisa once the call was made, and the team on M6T-911 began their countdown.

The lights in the bridge dimmed just before the Vantage and the Galactica went into Hyperspace, followed by the Sunnydale and the Atlantia, and finally the Persephone shot forward and entered a blue hued tear. It was nearly five minutes later, that the Persephone exited over a planet that had four Wraith cruisers orbiting it.

"Is the Stargate on M6T-911 active?" asked Lisa.

"Yes, ma'am," came the reply as the blonde smiled before ordering, "raise shields, fire all weapons, prepare the three Horizon weapons. All pilots, launch your fighters."

Where the old F-302's had three different engines, the newest models had the same propulsion systems that were on the Puddle Jumpers in Atlantis. The new fighters were not only more agile and faster than the previous models, it boasted an improved shielding system. Weapons-wise, the ever reliable railguns were still present, as were Ancient drones on the underside of the fighters, and pulse weapons on the tips of the wings. The fighters and the Darts began to clash while the Persephone targeted and fired at the cruisers headed towards her as she scanning the planet below. The energy bursts from the Persephone's turrets weakened the hulls of the Wraith cruisers as they were being fired on at two at a time. In the meantime, the four cruisers fired at the Persephone; the Tau'ri vessel only shaking slightly with the shield being reduced to ninety percent.

The beam weapons then hit the weakened cruisers and cut through the vessels, one after another. The energy burst and the beam weapons working in conjunction as one cruiser was destroyed after another while the Darts continued to battle the fighters.

"Target the surface," ordered Lisa as the final Wraith cruiser exploded, the Persephone shields having been dropped to eighty-five percent, "fire energy bursts. Destroy everything and everyone down there."

The ship began firing down at the surface of the planet, destroying one unfinished hive ship after another while the other Wraith ran towards several underground entrances. Lisa then ordered the launch of the bunker busters, which exploded, destroying large swaths of area including three different cloning facilities. Once all the bunker busters were expended, the Persephone targeted the ship growing facilities, and then launched the three Horizon weapons systems, with three fighters following each weapons system into the atmosphere of the planet in case the Darts intercepted them. However, the darts were distracted with battling the other fighters while the nose of the large missiles separated and fell away, exposing eight naquadria enriched nuclear warheads. The nine Tau'ri fighters pulled up and got out of there at full speed as the warheads were launched.

And then, a few seconds later, there were multiple flashes of white and orange light from the surface as the warheads exploded, destroying vast swathes of the surface where there were Wraith commanders, brutes, still-growing hive hips, cloning facilities, and Wraith worshippers. All of them burned and were disintegrated in nuclear fire. Lisa watched from the screen to her left, the entre bridge silent, as more explosions went off destroying more facilities and lives.

"Status report," said Lisa turning away from the screen.

"The darts are changing course and… and.. and they're retreating, our fighters are pursuing," said Major Daniels as Lisa got up and headed towards his console, "fighters are launching drones, and.. the darts are retreating to the planet, and…"

"Ma'am!" yelled another officer who looked back at Lisa with her eyes wide open, "we're detecting a massive energy surge."

"From where?" asked Lisa, her heart racing.

"Two… two meters below the surface," said the young woman as Lisa rushed off to her, "scanning… Oh God."

"Lieutenant," said Lisa as she looked at the screen over the young woman's shoulder, "what are…"

Lisa stopped taking when a scan came up on the screen of a Hive ship that was double the size of the regular ships that the Tau'ri, Colonials, Asgard, the Tollan, Hebridians, and the Travellers had faced in combat. The commander of the Persephone's eyes widened when she looked at the data the scanners were collecting as a series of bay doors on the surface finished opening, revealing the dorsal section of the massive ship. It was nearly five thousand meters long, it had several weapon ports along its hull, and the hull itself was extremely dense according to the sensors on the Persephone. However, while all of that stunned Lisa, it was the power readings coming from the Wraith ship that was a cause of surprise; two ZPMs. Lisa watched the darts retreating in the bay of the Hiveship before it banked upwards and the trusters fired.

"Get all Arrow's back home," ordered Lisa as she looked back at her bridge crew, "send our readings to the Vantage and the rest of the Task Force. In the meantime, launch all Mark Nine nuclear weapons at the Wraith ship, and fire all our weapons."

The Persephone opened fire at the approaching ship, however, where the Ancient beam weapons had earlier sliced the Cruisers with relative ease; all they did now was impart minimal damage on the dense hull. The sensors on the Persephone indicating that any damage was instantly healed.

"The Wraith ships only weakness was power regulation," said Lisa as she rushed to her chair, "now they have ZPM's. Major Daniels, notify Atlantis of this new situation. Inform General Rosenberg that our Intel was incomplete, massively incomplete."

"Ma'am," said another officer as he looked aback at Lisa, "the Vantage and the Galactica are being attacked by a ship that matches the description of this… super-hive."

"Send out a…" Before Lisa could finish what she wanted to say, the entire ship shook and, as a result, Lisa and several others on the bridge fell to the floor as one ZPM powered plasma bolt after another hit the shields on the Persephone. There were a series of jolts as Lisa was helped up to her chair by Major Daniels who rushed back to his console when Lisa grabbed the arm rest while the Persephone continued to be jolted by ZPM powered pulse blasts. She was trying to keeping balance while she sat in her chair when another volley of bolts hit the shields of the Persephone.

"Shields are down to eighty percent," yelled an officer who was slowly getting up.

"Evasive manoeuvres," yelled Lisa as another volley hit the ship from the port side of the Hiveship as it passed the Persephone, "continue firing all weapons.. Target the dart bays."

"There are no openings, ma'am," said another officer.

"Weapons have a minimal effect on the hiveship," yelled another other as the ship shook again from weapons impacts, "nukes, and energy weapon damage to the hull have already healed."

"Beam in a Mark Nine," ordered Lisa.

"The Wraith vessel is jamming us, ma'am," said another officer before falling to the floor following a series of massive jolts.

"Shields at fifty percent," said Major Daniels as he looked at Lisa while the Persephone continued to fired with all her weapons, "ma'am, we need to break off and recharge the shields, we…"

"Not yet," said Lisa as she watched the wraith ship come about while continuing to fire at the Persephone. The Tau'ri vessel banked hard to starboard, missing a majority of the bolts with only two shots hitting the aft section of the ship. With the shields now just under fifty percent, yellow glowing missiles… the Ancient drone weapons, were fired from the dorsal, port, and starboard launchers and guided towards the Wraith super hive. The Persephone banked away from the Wraith ship while Lisa, sitting on the chair, concentrated as she used her minds eye, which were connected to the sensors, and guided the drones towards the Wraith ship. However, the hull was so thick that the drones exploded upon impact. Lisa could see that the drones were working at creating craters in the hull after they exploded, but the craters started to heal immediately. She tried to guide in one drone after another, but to no avail. By the time the hull of the Super hive was nearly compromised, all drones were exhausted.

Lisa then ordered that they open fire at the sections of the ship where the hull was nearly compromised. By the time the weapons were fired at those sections, the hull had already been thickened to a point that the weapons were ineffective.

"Send this data to the Vantage," ordered Lisa.

"Message from General O'Neill, ma'am," said another Major, "he wants us to rendezvous to his location. The Sunnydale and the Atlantia have finished their mission, and is joining the Vantage and the Galactica against their Super-Hiveship."

"Tag this ship, and…"

"Ma'am?" said a confused Major Daniels, "I'm getting some weird readings and… oh boy."

"Major?" Lisa asked as she looked at the Wraith Super hive, and then at Major Daniels, "what.."

"Ma'am," said another officer as she pointed at the front window. Lisa looked up, and saw the Wraith vessel moving off before entering hyperspace. Confused, Lisa then looked back down over Major Daniel's shoulder as he pointed out at the readings on his screen. She read the Wraith script, and then her eyes opened wide before she yelled.

"Get me General O'Neill, now!"

It was a few seconds Later that Lisa dashed to a screen on the port side of the ship as General O'Neill's face appeared. She could see that the Vantage was shaking, with some of the crew falling to the floor before being helped up.

"Summers," said the General, "the Sunnydale and the Atlantia are here, where are you?"

"Sir," said Lisa, "our Wraith super hive moved off into hyperspace, but there's a problem. We detected a energy burst containing a very weak data stream, and I mean really, really weak… it would have been missed by anyone except those ships with very sensitive sensors."

"And?" asked General O'Neill before looking to his left and ordering that the Sunnydale fire all her drones at the sections that had already been weakened. The General ordered all weapons to be fired before turning back to Lisa, and asking her to continue.

"The energy readings accompanying the message had a signature similar to the incident of the duplicate odyssey appearing over Atlantis hundreds of years ago," said Lisa as General O'Neill frowned, "the energy burst came from another reality. And sir, it has the coordinates of Earth.. and we know that the Wraith have been looking for the Tau'ri homeworld for hundreds of years."

"Great, we may have a mole within the Tok'ra that gave us wrong intel, and then there's the question of how the Wraith got their hands on ZPMs, and now this."

"Sir," said Lisa who was thinking to herself if there really was a mole, or they had been too over-confident, "Earth, especially with their war going on, has no chance against a Hiveship powered by a ZPM."

Just then, there was a bright orange light that was reflected on the General's face. He covered his eyes with the back of his hands and looked away, and when the light faded, he looked out the window and then back to Lisa. He told her that their Super hive was destroyed.

"Sir," said Lisa, "my drones have been depleted, but our shields have already started to recharge, and we have our weapons still available. Permission to pursue the Super hive to Earth, I think we can give Starfleet a fighting chance."

"I'll talk to General Rosenberg," said General O'Neill, "in the meantime, go… get to Earth. I'll finish up here while sending Vantage and the Atlantia to your location. Then after we replenish weapons, we'll join you."

Lisa nodded her head.

"O'Neill out."

"Plot a course to Earth," said Lisa as she walked to her seat, "access the Ancient Database, I want a location where we can replenish our drones in the Milky Way. The Hive Ship, I hope, will still need to regenerate after Hyperspace flight, so... hold on... maybe we don't need to go all the way to Earth."

"Dr Davis," said Lisa as she pressed a button and connected to the engineering lab where the chief engineer was making sure that there were no damaged systems, "I take it you have a read on the power being generated from the Super-hive? And its relation to the healing process once the hull was damaged?"

"Yes, ma'am," said the great-grand daughter of Major Paul Davis as she rushed to another console and types onto some keys. She then looked up at the stream of data floating on the screen in front of her, "I have the rates at which the hull healed after damage. What are you asking Colonel?"

"The super-hive just entered hyper-space, I need to know where it would need to exit so that it could heal it's armour," said Lisa, "the hull is still organic, so it's still susceptible to hyperspace radiation."

"Understood, Colonel," said Davis as she went to another console, "give me ten minutes to plot an exit window for the Superhive."

"Understood, we'll contact the Vantage and Atlantis once we have that data. In the meantime, we continue to Earth," said Lisa before leaning back on her seat, and calling on Major Daniels, "are we ready, Major?"

"Ready for Hyperspace, ma'am."

"Let's go," said Lisa as the Persephone accelerated forward and entered a hyperspace window.
