You guys are great!! Thanks for all the reviews you have been posting!! Ok, onward we go!!)

The wraith was a good head taller then Sheppard. He had a type of tattoo on the side of his face. His yellow eyes were full of pride and confidence. Shilo stood beside him. Her eye where locked with John's eyes. John snorted and looked away.

"Sheppard? I am right, are I not?" The wraith had made his way over to him and was now standing in front of him looking down.

"Yes, what, may I ask, is your name?"

"I am not telling you. You have no right to even know Shilo's name, but I was not here to stop that." The wraith rolled his eyes as Shilo made her way over.

"We are leaving boys." She took the other wraith's hand in hers.

"Sheppard, his name is Cadell." She smiled as Cadell glared at them.

John sighed as they boarded onto a wraith carrier ship. It shock as it began to take off. John leaned up against the door of the door of the small ship. He really did not care that she was going to marry someone, or mate, what ever they call it. He thought he did not care. He wanted to be human again. McKay had made another so called discovery. The machine they were going to later only transformed human turned wraith. McKay had said that it appeared that the ancients had trouble with this guys ancestors.

This transformation had been going on for generations. Or something like that. John had not gotten the whole truth with that man's daughter. They still did not even know if the machine would work.

So in reality John could never have it both ways. He had to choose, but he did not want to be wraith forever.

John watched as the doors opened to reveal a large room with many other darts and carriers. There where guards in the room. When Cadell walked out of the ship by shoving Sheppard aside, the guards made a beeline to him. He spoke to one of them and said, "Tell the hive that the agreement has been made."

John rolled his eyes, the wraith had his own hive, what a big boy! John smirked at his own remark. Shilo gave him a look then returned her graze to Cadell. Cadell walked over to her and took on of her hands in to his. She did not look happy.

Sheppard sighed and followed Todd out of the room and in to the village. There where wraith everywhere. Most where males and some where even females. The females had short black hair.

"Why do they have black hair?" John asked Todd.

"It shows that they are not very important to hives. They are only the caretakers to the children of the queen. They live with the young ones on the planet."

"The men do not look any different."

"They are scientist. They stay home and do what ever they do. I have no interest in their lives, it is to boring."

"I see, where do you think I would fall?"

"A warrior no doubt."

John was impressed with the village. There was the one main area where the wraith would sleep. It was a large building, Sheppard called it the home hotel. There was the area for weapons and a feeding temple. The village was like a small wraith town. There where humans that often ran around. Todd said they were for breeding and not to be killed.

John was walked through the whole place. Todd was saying things about the past of the place. Sheppard never heard a word of it.

When they were finished Sheppard feed and hated every minute of it. He could not wait until he was human again, though he would miss Shilo.

He was walking at the outskirts of town when Shilo appeared. She wearing another dress.

"Hey, did you like the grand tour?" She seemed tired.

"Yes, where were you?"

"At a meeting with Cadell. He was discussing…what the… future may hold." She exhaled sharply out of her nose.

"You are not happy about this agreement, are you?"

"I do not have a choice, come, I want to show you my grand tour."

Shilo graved his hand and pulled him into the woods. They walked for around what Sheppard would guess five minutes. She pushed aside some branches and he passed through. They were standing on a cliff over looking a land mass of trees and a large lake below them. They were higher up then he had thought.

"Why are you guys on a mountain top? Why is it not cold?" John looked over at her.

"Are worlds are not the same as yours. So I cannot explain the second question. The first is so that we have a better over look of the land. This is my special place. No one except you and me knows about it."

"Wow, that means a lot to me Shilo, thanks. Can you tell me about your past?"

"There is nothing much to say. The only things I remember is that I do not remember. The first six years of my life were in complete darkness. Father said it was because I was captured by a rival hive. But it cannot be true. Father and I are nothing alike. He is laid back and is quick to anger. I am one to be running around but I slow to anger. I cannot remember much about my mother.

I do not know what to tell you. I lived here until I hit around 15. I have lived on the hive for as long as that. Now I am going to mated to a wraith I want nothing to do with. He has a least three other females that no one knows about. That is why he is so powerful.

Anyway, so my mother raised me alone with some of the caretakers of course. Mother died in a human attack on the hive ship. We were visiting and she was killed. Father was captured and his second in command took over. That was when life got harder.

Wraith were still loyal to me but he was not. He wanted his older daughter to take over. He tried in many different ways to kill me. They all failed because I have a lot of followers. Then the time came when word spread that he was taking over the whole hive. That was when father came back. He worked on getting things back together. I was sent to another hive to keep me safer. It is the one I live on to this day. Father says that it was a good thing I left, the one ship blow up I heard."

"Yea, um.. We kind of had something to do with that." John chuckled nervously.

They were sitting on the ground over looking the scenery before them.

"I understand. Did they scare you?"

"No, they were trying to protect us, well Todd really."

"Oh." She sighed and rested her head on John's shoulder.

John put his head onto hers and breathed in deeply.

"I want you to understand something Shilo. I do love you but I cannot be wraith. It is not easy for me to feed and kill a man. I really want to be with you but I cannot."

"I want to be with you to, father told me you are not good not enough for me. I think that was just talk so he could Cadell's hive on his good side."

"So he is mating you for his purpose?"

"Yes, that is thing I do not like. Wraith queens are suppose to put their hive above all else. I do not want to. I want to put you first but father would banish me for it."

"I wish there is another way. An alterative pathway, just for us."

Laughing softly she whispered, "Just keep your eyes open John, we may still have a chance yet."

That night they stayed there alone, not listing to their minds telling them the trouble they could get into., but listening to their hearts, what they wish they could follow forever.

Hope you enjoyed this one. More coming, the faster you want me to update the more reviews I need to get!! Bye for now!!
