Dr. Weir's Office (with John)…

John sat in Dr. Weir's office alone. He was in her chair and logging in to her computer. Once logged in, he went to start and started to browse for the games. He scratched his head, for he couldn't find the computer games. He went into My Computer and started to search through the files on Elizabeth's computer. Talk about oh shit, he's in for a big surprise.

He scanned each line of folders. Rodney Plans, Important E-Mails… no. Medical Results, no. Amber's Confidential file, still no, John read, thinking in between. He stopped scroll with a puzzled look on his face. He scrolled back up to the file titled: "Amber's Confidential File".

John looked from side to side, to see if anyway was watching him. No one was near Elizabeth's office and John double-clicked on the file. His heart began to pound as he read the first section of Amber's file.

Birth Certificate

Born: 12/19/1985

State of Birth: Colorado

City of Birth: Firestone

Siblings: Jay Sheppard

Parents: Jonathan and Karena Sheppard

Godparents: Godfather: Meredith Rodney McKay, Godmother: Samantha Carter

John shook his head and read the certificate multiple times. He closed the file and the top of the laptop. Speech-less, he closed the door to Dr. Weir's office and screamed.

Amber had been walking across the Gate Room when she heard John's scream. She looked up and saw he was in Elizabeth's office. Her heart stopped as she started to run to her quarters. On her way, she ran into Raine and Alek, saying nothing, though they could guess.

Raine and Alek began to walk towards the Control room, but ran into Elizabeth. "Dr. Weir," Raine began.

"Yes, Raine?" Elizabeth asked.

"Um… there's an angry father in your office which you should take care of," Raine said.

Elizabeth froze and shook her head. "You don't mean John do you?" Elizabeth asked, not wanting a truthful answer.

"Yes I do," Raine said. Elizabeth sighed and ran to her office and opened the door. John was sitting back in her chair, examining Amber's file closely. He looked up from the computer as Dr. Weir walked in saying, "John, I can explain."

"Okay, then start," John replied, closing the laptop.

"The president of the US requested that her file be confidential to open eyes. You know that I couldn't show your open eyes when the presidents says not to," Elizabeth began, sitting in the chair in front of him.

"I see, but I never knew Karena was pregnant when we divorced," John said.

"She may have told them not to tell you because you were fighting in a war," Elizabeth pointed out. "She may have been protecting you from a distraction."

"Then why didn't she contact me after the war," John questioned, looking at her.

"Because she died," Elizabeth answered. "Social Security sent the children to a military orphanage to soon be moved to a school when they became old enough."

"How many other's know?" John asked.

Dr. Weir nodded and activated her earpiece, "Will everyone who knows Amber's secret come to my office immediately."

Within a few moments, Raine, Alek, Jeremy, Rodney, and Carson entered Elizabeth's office, with their hands behind their backs, other than Alek who had his arms crossed. John looked at them, more than half of his team knew. "You all knew?!" John exclaimed looked at most of the guilty faces. "Wait, where is Amber?"

"Probably hiding in the Red Room," Raine answered.

"The what?" Everybody, other than Alek and Jeremy, asked.

"We'll just have Ronan fish her out," Raine smirked. There was a long, screaming "no" followed by running footsteps. Amber soon appeared in the doorway with her hair tied up in a tiara twist.

She looked at John and quickly put her hands behind her back and began to sway back and forth. With a guilty look on her face, Amber looked at the ground in shame.

"You knew?" John asked standing up.

"Duh," Amber replied, not looking up.

"Wait, didn't I teach you to fly a fighter at the Academy?" John asked. This ways news to everyone.

"Uh hun!" Amber said, smiling.

"Damn I'm stupid," John said and went passed Amber and to the door. He turned around and asked, "Where's Jay?"

"On Earth," Amber replied. "He didn't want to come to Atlantis and have to keep that large of a secret."

John nodded and left the office. He walked down the stairs to the Gate Room and then disappeared through the right door.

Amber sighed and started to walk away, but was stopped by the sound of Dr. Weir's voice. "Amber," she started.

"I don't care about what you have to say or anyone else," Amber snapped, wiping her head around. "Just leave me alone!"

She ran from the office and through the left door in the Gate Room. She kept running through the corridors, receiving glances from the people she passed. She went into her quarters and grabbed her hover board. She left her room and continued to run through the corridors before she reach the pier.

She activated the hover board and jumped onto it, flying over the ocean towards the main land.

Elizabeth ran to the scanners to see where Amber was. "Where is she?" Elizabeth asked.

"She rigged the system not to track her," the control person replied.

Elizabeth sighed and contacted John over earpiece. "John, get to the jumper bay and get ready for launch, Amber's gone," she said.

"I'm on my way," John surprisingly replied. He quickly made his way to the jumper bay and was greeted by Rodney and Jeremy.

"We're coming too," they both said.

John shrugged and went into the jumper and turned it on. Jeremy sat in the co-pilot's chair while Rodney sat behind him.

"We're going to have to fly blind, I can't pick up any trace of her," Rodney informed John and Elizabeth (over earpiece). John nodded in acknowledgment and the jumper lifted off the ground, leaving the jumper bay from the roof hatch. The jumper lunged forward, hoping to find Amber, hopefully unharmed. Though this is Amber we're talking about…

OMFG.

Oo wow… that's unexpected… sort of.

We unfortunately do not own the fantabulous StarGate Atlantis, however we also captured Carson. YAY CARSON!
