Emma walked to Elisabeth`s offices, stopping in the doorway." You got a second?" Emma asked.
"For you I got a whole minuet." Elisabeth said whit a smile on her face.
Emma walked in the office and sat down in the chair as she looked down at the computer screen, she had in her hand.
"Listen to this." Emma said as she holed up a finger. "Approximately one thousand years ago, Give or take. The Genii were the focal point of a great mulit-planetray confederation. However when the wraith emerged as a galactic power. They began to destroy all planets, which might be able to challenge them. And if I am translating this part right, the Genii and Hoffans were almost driven to the brink of annihilation."
"Emma where did you-"
"Hoffans, their were the people that developed the drug to prevent the wraith from feeding on there." Emma laid the screen down, as she made an air… "Food supply."
"When did you have the time to find out all that?" Elisabeth asked Emma.
"I had some free time on my hands." She told Elisabeth, as she lies back in the chair, whit a sigh. Emma looks over her shoulder, when she hears laughter coming from the control room and she sees Sheppard standing there whit, the women, the Brought back with them from the planet Proculus.
"Her name is Chaya." Elisabeth tells her.
Emma sees Sheppard tuning his head her way and smile at her. "I bet it is."Emma says feeling the jealousy creping op on her .When saw Sheppard but his hand on her lower back.
"sgt. Stackhouse and his team is going to visit m3b-242. I like to go whit them." Emma says as she tunes her head toward Elisabeth.
"Shouldn't you ask Sheppard –"
"I am asking you !"Emma said getting upset and she hating the fact it was because of Sheppard and that women.
"Hmm. Okay fine, go." Elisabeth told her.
"Thank you." Emma said as she got out of the chair and walked out of Elisabeth and she kept her head down, walking by Sheppard.
"Emma." Sheppard calls out.
Taking a deep breath as she tunes around and put a fake smile on her face." Sheppard." She said as she saw him and the women walking up to her.
"Chaya, I like you to meet Emma Swanson." Sheppard said as he looked at the Chaya women whit a smile all over his face.
"Sheppard have told me about you." She said as she smiled at Sheppard, holding out her hand for Emma to take.
"I bet he has." Emma said sarcastic, as she took Chaya hand to shake.
The three of them just stood there like, none of them, not really knew what to say. Sheppard stood there moving back and forward on his feet.
"So -."
"Sheppard." Elisabeth called out to him, making all three of look towards Elisabeth.
"We are ready." Elisabeth said, as she walked to the conference room, whit McKay following closely behind her.
"Well, have a good meeting."Emma says, whit a smile on her face as she moved around them.
"You not are coming?" Sheppard ask her.
"Sorry no, I have some work to do." Emma tells him as she tunes on her feet walking away from them ,as she let out a long sigh.
2o minuet later. Emma stood in the gate room looking at the stargate alongside Sgt. Stackhouse and his team.
"You been off-world, before?" McCullough ask her as he clips his p90 to his west. He looks towards his team mates, when he hears laughter coming from them." What?" he ask confused, look at his them.
"You are new to the stargate program, right?" Marco asks him.
McCullough nodded his head.
Emma was a member of SG1, they were first team that ever when through the stargate back on earth." Marco told him.
"No shit." McCullough said as he looked up at Emma.
"Dial the gate." yelled up to the control room, as the all tunes around to see the gate lighting up.
Emma clips her weapon to her west as she moves her hand down to the pocked, there is on her pants lag, to feel the zat laying there, she give it a little clap .
"You ready ma`am, Stackhouse ask her.
"Yea let`s go." Emma says the walk in to the event horizon together.
Emma and Stackhouse walked out the gate together and the both looked around , getting a baring of the area Before they walk down the road, that would take them to the villages. After 20 minuet of could see the villages op ahead, she tunes around as she walked backward for a minute , before she tunes towardStackhouse " Didn't you say, one of the villages, would be meeting us ? Emma asked .
"Yea." Stackhouse told her.
They walked through the village and they looked around the place, and to Emma it looked like the villagers had abandoned the place in a hurry. But why?.
"March`s house it just up ahead." McCullough said, pointing his finger at a house to feet away from them.
"McCullough, Emma , go check it out, we will have a look around here." Stackhouse told them as he and Marco walked down farther in to the villages.
"Come on."McCullough told her as he held up the p-90 and walked up to the house and Emma watched as McCullough smashed the heel of his boot into the door and he stepped through the doorway , his p90 in front of him , searching the room.
"Clear." McCullough called out.
Emma walked In to the house and looked around and she saw a table standing in the corner of the room . she walked up to the table to see it was made up , like someone was just about to sit down and eat. Emma put her finger to the …. That was on the table.
"It is cold." Emma told McCullough as she whipped her finger on her pants lag as she looked up to see him looking down at her.
"I don't like this." Emma said as she took a firm grip on her p90.
"Me too ." McCullough tells her." This is March's home, his wife and three kids there all gone-"
"They are all gone!" Stackhouse said as he walked in to the house." It is like all just up and left."
"Why?" Emma asked as she tunes around looking at him.
" I think-"
"Wraith." Emma hears Marco yelling out and all three of, runs out of the house to see Marco running to through the villages. "We gat wraith up head." Marco tells as he put his hand on his knees, trying to catch his breath.
"That is a wraith?"Emma ask, pointing a finger behind them
"We need to leave now." Stackhouse tells them as the all tunes around to run. But the stop in their tracks when they see the wraith .
"Oh shit." Marco says aloud and one of the wraith`s looks up and fires his weapon at them.
"Get back." Stackhouse yells, takes a hold of Emma jacked and moves her in front of him, telling her to run. The ran through the villages trying to find a place to hide.
"This way."Marco says as he finds runs behind one of the houses and the others follow close behind him.
"What the hell are they still doing here?" McCullough whispered to the others.
Emma looked around the corner to see one of the wraith holding something in his hand. She tunes back as the wraith tunes his head to look her way. "Fuck." Emma grumbled.
"What?" Stackhouse asked looking at her.
"I don't think, they are leaving any time soon.
Emma bit her lip." We need to get go to the stargate." Emma tells them.
Stackhouse looked down at his watch."In 20 minute we are an hour behind check in. Weir will send a team to look for us.
"I don't think we have an hour." Emma tells him, pointed her weapon down at the ground. They looked down to see a shadow on the ground toward them. Emma takes a knife from behind her back and held I front of her face as she took a step forward.
"What are you doing?" McCullough whispered- yelling at her.
"Emma took a deep breath as she got ready to make her move. She saw what looked like a weapon coming by her side and she waited until she saw the arm that was holding the weapon. Emma took a hold of the wraith arm as she pulled him op against the wall, she sees the shocked look on the wraith facer, right before she moves her knife in to his throat. He takes a hold of the hand that is holding the knife, looking in to her eyes as she moves the knife deeper, a second later he close his eyes and she takes a hold of him as he falls to the ground and makes him sit against the wall of the house.
"Shit." She hears McCullough says.
"We need to go, now." Emma whispered as she took a step away from the house, but she stops when she felt someone holding her back.
"What are you doing?" Stackhouse yelled at her, whit a firm grip on her arm.
"I am going to run to the gate, and I am dialing the gate and getting us the hell out of her." Emma told him.
Stackhouse looked at her, as he made a sigh." Just be extra careful, our Sheppard will have my neck."Stackhouse told her.
Emma nodded her head, before she turned and ran through the trees and in the background, Emma could hear Stackhouse yelling at the other to fire. Emma runs down the road towards the gate and she stops when she comes to the gate, and she walks op to the DHD console. She put in the symbols for Atlantis as she turned around to see the event horizon coming to live as she put her finger to her ear.
"Atlantis this is Swenson, do you copy?" she asked as she turns around to look at road, when she hears Elisabeth voice in her ear.
"Emma. Is that you ?"
"Yea it is me Elisabeth. Listen I don't have much time, you need to put the shield down."
"What is going on?. Where is Sgt. Stackhouse?" Elisabeth asked her.
"The villages are all gone and the place is swarming whit wraith`s."Emma tells her as she tunes back around "Oh shit." Emma says as she sees a Wrath standing in front of the gate.
"Emma was wrong?"
"Just let us through." She yells as she tunes of the radio as moves her hands in front of her face ready to fight him. The Wraith was toward her and she throws two fist at the wraith. The wraith caught the one, but the other was too fast and it connects whit the wraith`s face. Emma lifted her lag and pushed him hard in the stomach, making him stumble backward. Emma standing facing him whet her hand in a fighting , Emma stand there waiting for him to make the next move and when he does she moves her fist forward to hit the wraith again, but get a hold of her arm, twisted it, making her fall face DHD console. Somehow, she manages to hit the wraith in the side with her right elbow once, twice as the wraith takes her by her hair and throws her face first in to the DHD console ones again. Emma tries to move but he got a good hold on the back of her head. As she struggle to get out of the hold he has on her. She runs her hand down to her pants lag to get the zat and she get it out and it opens and she tunes it behind him and fired it and she feel the hand that was holding her head down, letting go of her head, tuning around she sees the wraith standing there looking at her.
"Don't you things, ever die." She yells as she hits him whit the zat one more time and he falls to the ground.
Emma runs her fingers over her nose as she looks as the wraith, that is laying on the ground, tuning around she put her finger to her ear. "Stg. Stackhouse, get you and your man to the gate." Emma says.
"We are on our way." He tells her
Emma takes a deep breath and as she do she feel the pain in her side, she but her hand to her side, but a noise make her look to the side." Are you kidding me?" she says out loud as she takes her handgun op in her other hand and she fired it, again and again, until she sees him going down.
"Get down." She hears a voice yelling.
Emma tunes around to see,Sgt Stackhouse , Marco and McCullough running down the road and she sees maybe a dozen wraith running behind them. Emma runs and get down in front of the dialing device, just in time as a blast hit the gate, behind her. Emma moves her head to see Stackhouse and Marco jumping behind a big rock, just as a blast hits it
"get down."Emma yelled.
"I am staying down ma´am ." Stackhouse yelled.
"Not you." Emma yelled, as she nodded her head over to McCullough that was standing in the wraith line of fire." Him."Emma yelled, as she saw the McCullough being hit whit a blast on the lags and he fall to the grown.
"McCullough." Marco calls out.
"Oh great." Emma said to herself as she ran over to McCullough.
"Get up McCullough and get through the dame gate." Emma yelled in to his ere.
"Yes ma`am." McCullough said, as he was trying to get on his feet
"Stackhouse." Emma yelled.
"Yea." He yelled from behind her.
"Get over her and help me." Emma yelled as she tried to get the McCullough on his feet.
"You got it."He tells her as he tunes to Marco, telling him to run to the gate.
Stackhouse ran to the McCullough`s other side as Marco runs behind them towards the gate. Stackhouse takes a hold on McCullough arm and together they tried to get him to stand, but as McCullough, tried to stand he fall down , taking Emma and Stackhouse whit them."
"We have to carry him."Stackhouse yelled.
"Lift him." Emma yelled.
The both gripped McCullough and carry Him to the gate as they tried to keep their head down .
Sgt. Swenson. Move, faster." Marco yelled at them as he fired his p90 at the wraith that was closing in on them.
"Go. We are right behind you." Stackhouse yelled as he and Emma carried McCullough through the gate.
The moment , they were standing in the gate room in Atlantis , the dropped McCullough on to the floor making him moan as he rolled around on the floor.
"Close it." Stackhouse yelled.
"You guys alright." Emma asked as she looking at the three others, all of them were trying to get catch breath.
Stackhouse nodded." Yea, we are fine."
Emma heard McCullough let out a sigh and she looked down to see him nodding his head at her to." Lags numb, but I am good to."
"That was fucking unreal." Marco said with a shaken voice.
"Good." Emma said whit a tired smile on her face, right before she felt her body falling to the floor.
"We need medic to the gate room. Now." Emma hears Elisabeth yell, as she felt her eyes close.
"The major is pissed." Emma hears Ford tell someone as she opened her eyes
"Hey Ford." Emma said as she felt someone squeezed her hand and she tunes her head to see Elisabeth looking at her whit worry written all over her face."Elisabeth.
"I am calling the Major." Ford says.
"No, don't .."Emma coughed and shook her head slightly."
"But I promised the Major." Ford told her.
"Later, pleases." Emma asked Ford.
"Welcome back, Emma." Elisabeth said to her.
Emma turned slightly trying to sit up in the bed, when she sees McCullough laying in the bed next to her. She tries to raise her hand and groaned at the pain in her side.

"Is he okay." Emma asks.
Carson looks over at McCullough." He is fine. Worried about you lass, so were we all. Carson tells her as he turns his attention back to her."How are you feeling lass?" He asked her.
"my side hurt." Emma told him.
"You crack to ribs and one of them punctured you left lung." Carson told her.
"So that is why it hurt to breath." She told him
"I can take care of that." He smiled at her." I bee right back."
"Thank you." Emma sighed as she rested her head agents the pillow. After he was gone Emma looked up at Ford ."Will you help me?"
"I am not sure Carson-" Ford told her.
"Please."Emma said whit a pleading look on her face.
"I will help." Elisabeth told her.
Emma looked over at Ford." You can`t make it any worse."
"The hell he can`t ." A voice said in front of her.
Emma and Ford looked around to see Sheppard standing in the doorway of the infirmary." You were supposed to call me, when she woke up." Sheppard told Ford.
"I…."
"I asked him not to." Emma told him.
"Can you guys give us a minute." Sheppard asked the others as he kept his gaze on Emma."
Emma looked up at Elisabeth whit a pleading look on her face. Elisabeth smiled down at her as she squeezed her hand softly before she and Ford walked out of the infirmary.
"Sheppard"
"What the hell, were you thinking?" He asked her, whit anger dripping from his voice ." You should have talked to me-"
"Yea well, your mind were somewhere ells." Emma says as she played whit the bed sheet
"What hell-" Sheppard, pointed his finger at her "You jealous?" He told her whit laugh in his voice now.
"Jealous of what. You and that women-"
"You kissed me –"
"And you made it pretty clear you didn't want me." Sheppard told her getting upset.
"I never said, I didn't want you, John." Emma says in a soft voice.
Sheppard hold both arm toward her." What do you want?" Sheppard ask her.
Emma lat out a sigh." I do not want to do this now John, I am tired and it hurts every ware." She tells him.
"I will let you get some sleep. But this, isn't over." He told her as he walked out of the infirmary.
"I thought you might like this back." Carson told her as walks up to her and he opened his hand to give her something .Emma looked down, to see what was in his hand and she saw dog tags laying in his palm.
"Thank you." Emma says as she took the tags from his hand.
"Who is Steve Williams." Carson asked her as he sees her running her finger over the latter on the tags.
"He was my husband." Emma told him as she put the chain around her neck.
