John had been avoiding Raven and Jen since they had parted ways at breakfast. He still didn't know what the song was going to be that Raven had somehow trapped him into singing with her. They had parted as they left the mess he going to a briefing of an upcoming mission, they to their labs to work on something that he couldn't understand.

"So are you prepared to sing 'Pavarotti'?" McKay jibed him as he entered the room.

John simply pushed him into his chair and sat in his own.

"Good, you are all on time for once."

Elizabeth strode into the room with her laptop in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other.

"So where are we going this time?" John wanted to get this meeting over with so he could go back to hiding.

"You are heading to P3G-25K. It seems to be an uninhabited planet with sustainable air and life. It's a simple recon mission so I expect you to be no longer than 12 hours."

Everyone nodded and Elizabeth handed out the information files.

"Oh there is one other thing. Major Carter will be accompanying you. I have asked her to go with you to take mineral samples and to keep an eye on the lot of you. I know how you can easily get into trouble."

John put on a face of mock shock.

"Who us? Never!" Smiling he stood and prepared to walk out of the room.

"We'll see."

"So McKay what are you up to today?" John was following McKay to his lab.

"There is no way I am letting you hide in my lab. You almost destroyed it last time." McKay opened the door to his lab and stood in the door, blocking his way.

"Oh come on! I told you that was an accident. It wasn't my fault that you didn't tell me properly not to touch you equipment." John laughed inwardly as he remembered the moment.

"Look I don't care Sheppard. You are not setting foot in my lab. Go hide somewhere else."

With that he took a step back and closed the door, disabling it from inside.

Looking around John saw the person who he was trying to hide from come around the corner. He had nowhere to hide and was stuck standing in the hallway.

"Hey." Raven said as she came to stop ext to him. She looked at the younger girl next to her. "I'll meet you back in the lab ok."

The other girl nodded and continued making her way down the hall.

"So what brings you to this part of Atlantis?"

She asked, studying his reaction. She could always tell when he was lying.

"Honestly I came here to hide from you and Jen." He answered sheepishly.

All Raven did was an eyebrow and wink before she moved past him.
"Just make sure that you are in the function room at 1800 hours."

She left him standing there wishing the earth would open up and swallow him whole.

Raven made a detour on the way back to her lab, stopping by Jen's. As she neared the door, she could hear Jen humming a tune to herself.

"I take it that you have decided the song now?"

Jen jumped about a mile when Raven spoke.

"How many times have I told you not to do that to me?" Jen said as she placed a hand over her heart.

Raven giggled as she propped herself on the corner of Jen's desk.

"I know, but where is the fun in that?" Raven looked around the room. "Are you actually working in here or just making a mess?"

"Oh ha ha. You're a comedian. No I am working. Your fiancé decided that it would be fun to almost blow up McKay's lab and now I've been lumbered with the job of repairing the equipment that could be salvaged."

Raven placed her hand over her mouth to stop herself from laughing. Regaining her composure, she tilted her head and looked at Jen.

"Seriously…Have you decided what song we're supposed to sing?"

Jen grinned mischievously t her from the other side of the desk.

"That I have and it's one you both know so don't worry, but I'm not telling you what song until you have to sing it….Where's the fun in that?"

Sticking out her tongue Raven jumped off the desk and walked to the door.

"Revenge will be mine." She said as she left the room.
