We go whirling through the wormhole. We are now on M5X-913 with Colonel Sheppard, Dr. Weir, Teyla and Ronon. They walk around cautiously.

"Sheppard!"

They turn around to see Darak standing beside a tree.

"You alone?"

"I am."

They lower their weapons. Weir steps forward.

"What do you know about the people who wanted McKay questioned?"

"I know that they are still looking for him. They were not satisfied with the lengths Jendis went to in order to get the information, so they wish to get it from him themselves."

"He had no idea what Jendis was talking about."

"I know. But they seem to think that he is lying and they are very determined to get that information. Determined enough to plant a Zero Point Module on our planet."

Sheppard looks at Weir.

"Do you know who they are?"

He nods.

"I found this in Jendis' office. I have never come across them before. They seem to be some sort of rogue group that branched off from the Genii."

Darak hands Weir a piece of paper.

She reads it. Darak continues.

"The worrying thing is that are in close relations with the Wraith."

Weir looks up at Darak. "The Wraith?"

Teyla looks confused. "The Wraith working with former Genii? That does not make any sense."

Sheppard looks at the paper. "They wouldn't work together unless the result benefited both of them. The former Genii get the information, the Wraith get McKay."

Weir looks at John. "I don't think so. Why would the Genii want to know about the 'Ancient molecule configuration'? No. I think they wanted to give the Wraith the information, but since McKay didn't know..."

"They are going to hand McKay over to the Wraith." Teyla puts two and two together.

Ronon finally says something. "That seems like a lot of trouble to get information from someone. Why didn't they just hand him over to the Wraith in the first place?"

Teyla turns around. "Perhaps it was their one last bargaining chip they had left."

"So, what does this mean?"

Sheppard looks at Weir. "It means that this is alot worse than we thought."

--

Back at Atlantis. Weir, Sheppard, Ronon, Teyla and Carson are sitting in the breifing room.

"How is antidote working?"

"Slowly, but effectively."

"Good." Weir turns to John.

Sheppard turns in his chair. "What's the plan?"

"Right now? We don't have one. We know that the Wraith and this rebel Genii group are searching fro McKay so that puts your whole team at risk. Until further notice I want you, Ronon and Teyla to stay on the base."

"We can do that."

Teyla looks at Weir. "Perhaps Rodney will know something about this when he wakes up."

"That may take some time to happen. His pulse is still quite weak and his temperature hasn't raised a significent amount. Even so, when he does wake up he won't be in any state to talk about the ordeal. But, from what I saw on the tape, he looked as confused as we were. I doubt he knows anything about it."

John lies back. "We'll see what happens."
