Teyla stared blankly out of the large infirmary window, watching the way the little droplets of rain danced with each other down the glass. The way the raindrops mixed with the colour of the setting sun was almost hypnotic to Teyla. The smell of medicine and disinfectant invaded her nostrils as she continued to watch the sun melt in to the horizon. A light hand brushed against her arm and Teyla jumped at the contact. She turned her head to see Doctor Beckett smiling down at her.

"How you doing love?" he asked her in a soft tone, glancing down at his clipboard in his hands. Teyla mealy smiled and shook her head. He could tell it was a smile lined with sadness. She turned her gaze back towards the window and basked in the rays of light that shone through its tinted cover. The light fell on to the floor and crawled towards the bed, warming the white sheets she lay beneath.

"So how is out little lady today?" came a voice that belonged to a very happy Doctor McKay. He strode through the door with his laptop under his arm with John, Ronon and Elizabeth Weir following closely behind.

" She is getting better slowly. But it will take some time, at least another week." Carson said, raising an eyebrow at Teyla's sigh of frustration. He smiled and walked away, striding through his office door and closing it gently behind him. The three men each took a seat by Teyla's bedside. Elizabeth remained standing.

"Well now that you are all here, I would like to know what happened please." Doctor Weir demanded more than asked, crossing her arm over her chest.

"Love to fill you in." Rodney started "we all know we went to this planet because it had the key to defeating the Wraith. But we got kidnapped and put in to a rather uncomfortable cell." Doctor McKay stopped in mid sentence and looked around at his team. "I know story of our lives. Anyway we found out that Callum. Teyla's husband was working for the men that captured us." Beside Rodney, Teyla cleared her throat quietly. The image of Callum's dead body flooded her mind, she suppressed the tears. No one seemed to notice. "Unfortunately Marcus killed Callum and moved us to a different room, where Teyla took Marcus out… Xena style." Doctor McKay finished his long speech, looking incredibly smug. Teyla just looked confused.

"What is Xena…?" Teyla asked, hearing Colonel Sheppard snigger beside her.

"Trust me, you don't want to know."

Elizabeth stood outside and looked over the huge stretch of ocean in front of her, letting the wind blow through her hair. She was thinking about the many events that had happened the last couple of days. It was going to be one hell of a mission report she thought to herself and could not help but sigh. She turned to go back to her quarters, but found John leaning against the frame of the door.

"John. How long have you been standing there?" She asked, walking towards him.

"Just got here" he answered truthfully, pushing off the doorframe. "You ok?" Now it was his time to ask the questions. He could see Elizabeth was weary and angry about something, he just didn't know what.

"Yes I'm fine." She lied than shook her head before hesitantly changed her answer. "No John I'm not ok. It's just not fair. Teyla found the one and only person she could call family and then for no reason what's so ever he gets killed" Elizabeth said, now on the verge of tears. Without warning Elizabeth ran in to John's arms, the action was so sudden, it nearly knocked him off his feet. He reluctantly pattered on her back.

"Nothing really is fair in life, you just have to learn to live with it." John said, surprised at his own words. No matter how wise and un-Sheppard like they sounded. He meant every word of it.

Flashback

John hurtled down the many corridors with his team not too far behind. He felt like a mouse trapped within a maze, desperately trying to find a way out of its prison, find a way through the countless twists and turns, bends and dead ends. He ignored the fiery pain that fiercely burned in his chest and kept running. He ignored the small explosions of stunner blasts that strayed a little to close to him. All he cared about was getting his team and himself back home to Atlantis safe and sound. An angry blast from weapons fire talked the wall beside him, just missing his head. He looked in the direction it came from. His eyes widened with confusion and anger. Marcus stood no more then six feet away, slightly hunched over. He held his stomach where blood stained his fingers red. Marcus looked at John then his glance fell on Teyla who stood close by. He gave them both a toothy grin.

End flashback

John squeezed his eyes shut at the memory wanting to forget what happened next. Yup. Life was a bitch and there was nothing he could do about it.
