Llanea: Thank you.
Leliana McKay: Thanks. And ri-i-i-ight… Now because we all know everyone just reads the replies to their reviews.
Miss. Pookamonga: BOO!
Stargate fan: Thank you for your praise. Ma-a-a-a-y-y-y-y-be.
And I noticed that this seems to focus on Sam a lot so I'm adding a chapter showing what happened to McKay since he touched the panel.
1st person.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I remember what happened after I touched the panel quite clearly.
There was a shock and then a feeling of detachment. As if I'm no longer connected to my body.
I remained just lying where I was with my eyes closed for a few minutes. Wondering whether or not I had died, and cursing my stupidity if I had.
I remember a dark voice sounding throughout the area. Even now the words he said sends chills up my spine.
"Welcome to your new home Dr. McKay…"
The taunting way he said my name was enough to get me to open my eyes.
I was shocked at what I saw.
There was nothing but blackness around me. I was surprised I could see anything.
I couldn't see the source of the voice. I suppose now it's only logical that he was behind me.
"Where am I?" I had asked him.
A laugh sounded throughout the area before the voice said, "In the deepest recesses of your mind. Where you can't interfere with my plans."
"What? What plans? Show yourself!" I shouted.
"As you wish." (AN: Sorry to any Princess Bride Fans who were greatly disturbed by that)
I felt myself being turned by force unknown. And when I saw the thing I was shocked beyond words.
It looked like… Me.
After a moment or two I regained my ability to speak and started screaming questions.
After a while he grew annoyed and waved his hand. Apparently making so I couldn't speak.
"Now. I know you have some questions so I will answer a few as I see fit. Your body is currently in a coma in the infirmary of Atlantis. It will awaken in three weeks. But you will no longer be in control. I will." A smile that sent pangs of terror down my spine formed at his lips.
"No one will notice that you aren't yourself until it is too late. I will be able to take control of Atlantis and, eventually, Earth. Yes. I know about your precious planet. I have gone through your memories and know everything about you. It will be wonderful to witness the look in your sister's eyes when her dear brother murders her family and her."
I'm full of energy at those words. I dive at him intent on wrapping my hands around his neck and strangling him.
He looks bored, as if he had expected this.
He waves his hand again and sends me back into something. Maybe he generated something for me to hurt myself on, to show me how much control he has even in my mind.
"Do not try that again. I can cause you pain even in your mind." (AN: Mental pain! Sorry) The man hissed before disappearing.
So now here I am.
I'm resting in the darkest corners of my mind. I feel as if I have just been fed on by a wraith.
I can't believe what that bastard is doing, and has done, to me.
He's taken over my body.
Now he wants to take over my soul.

Finally, eh? And aren't you ecstatic that SGA won best Sci-fi in PCA?
