"Come on sleepy head, wake up."
"Emma slowly opened her eyes to see Sheppard sitting on the side of the bed, whit a cup in his hand.
"Morning." She said whit a smile on her face as she stretched her arms over her head, looking at the cup in his hand.
"Is that for me?" She asked him.
"Oh, this?" He asks, pointing at the cup whit his other hand.
Emma nodded her head at him as she reaching out for the cup. However, Sheppard move it out of her reach.
"If I give you this nice cup of warm coffee." He asks as he put the cup under his nose and breaths in the smell of the coffee, as he looked in to her eyes.
"What do I get in return?"
Emma looked in to his eyes, biting her lower lip as she moved on to her knees, Facing him as she ran the palms of her hands up his chest, and around his neck to play whit the hair at the back of his neck.
"What do you want for the coffee?" She asked him whit a smile on her face, as she sees him closing his eyes as he lets out a soft moan.
Emma leans in over him to take the cup from his hand."Thank you." She says as he opens his eyes, when he feels the cup leaving his. But before she can moves out of his reach, he caught her by her elbow, pulling her up against his chest. Making her prop the cup on to the floor.
"My coffee." Emma says, whit a pout on her lips.
"That was no very nice." He tells her whit a smile in his voice. Making Emma turn her head to look into his eyes, and she sees the look of passion filled his eyes, and she leans in, pressing her mouth on his. Sheppard slide his fingers over her neck, reaching back to cup the back of her head. His kiss was desperate and filled whit lust. Emma moaned against his mouth as she dug her fingers in to the front of his t-shirt, but a moment later he grunt softly when she pulls her mouth away from his to lean in to kiss his forehead, and she laugh at him as she walk of the bed. Over the corner of the room where her clothes are laying on the chair.
"You are one cruel women, you know that." He says as he turns around to look at her.
Emma laughs at him as she takes the t-shirt up from the chair." Cruel." She tells him as she pulls the t-shirt over her head.
"You are cruel, spilling a perfect good cup of coffee." She say, putting on her pants as she looks at him.
"Are you okay?" She asks him when she sees the worried look in his eyes.
"Yea, yea." He waves his finger at her. Today in the gum, I was beating Teyla." He tells her.
"Yea, sure you were." Emma laugh at him, but the laugh dies on her lips, when she sees the serious look on his face.
"Normally you are getting your ass handled to you." Emma tells him as she walks over to the bed to sit down beside him.
"She said, she hasn't been sleeping well."
"Is she okay?" Emma asks worried.
"She said, she been feeling the present of a wraith." And she said, it hasn't been this bad sense her father was taking."
"Major Sheppard." Emma heard Elisabeth voice coming from his earpiece.
"Yes!"
"Are you and Emma going to join the meeting?"Elisabeth asks him.
"We are on our way. Sheppard out." He tells her, taking Emma`s fingers and entwined his fingers whit hers, as he pulled her op the bed and they walked out her room together.
20 minutes later
"According to `s calculations, we have less than one week before the wraith arrives. I want options." Elisabeth says.
"You mean besides crying ourselves to sleep." McKay says, looking toward Zelenka . Only to see him already looking at him.
"Well not me, I haven't slept in days."
"And what do you have to show for your sleepless night, Rodney?" Elisabeth asked him.
"Since we got here, we have uncovered a number of defensive weapons systems beyond the shield."
" We think our best option is the control chair." Zelenka says.
"I was going to say that." McKay says as he looks at Zelenka.
"Yes, but you were taking too long as usual." He told McKay.
"But my point is, this may be our chance." McKay tells Zelenka.
"Name a better one." Zelenka says.
"Gentlemen." Elisabeth says as she looked at them.
"Of course, like the shield, power will be our biggest problem." McKay tells her.
"We haven't even been able to initialize the chair yet. Muss less, determine whether we can meet the power requirement." Zelenka says.
"Okay, keep me posted." Elisabeth tells them.
"Sergeant Bates, where are we whit our Alpha site?"
"We completed the ground and aerial security sweep and are ready to begin establishing base camp. We are just waiting final inspection by major Sheppard." Bates tells her.
"Right after lunch." Sheppard tells Elisabeth.
"Teyla, are the Athosians getting prepared for an evacuation?"
"Yes. But many believe there is no other world that is safe from the wraith."
"They want to stay?" Elisabeth asked her.
"As we have seen heard from our allies and seen for ourselves." She said, looking toward Sheppard." There is culling`s happening all over the galaxy. My people have spent their whole lives hiding from the wraith."
"Yes. But the difference here being, we do intend to destroy the city, rather than let it fall in to the hands of the wraith and it is comes to that, anyone left on the mainland, will be cut off from the stargate for good." Elisabeth say, looking around the room.
"But thanks to Rodney`s discovery." Elisabeth says, holding out her hand to him." Of the control crystal, we can take that whit us and hopefully used it to access earth in the future."
"We understand ." Teyla says.
"I am sorry." Elisabeth asks her confused.
"I am saying. The people of Athos wish you to know that they too will help defend the city." Teyla tells her.
"That is very honorable, but-"
"Please! We can`t possibly stay and fight." Cavanaugh asks Elisabeth.
"I disagree. I think it is entirely within the realm of possibility." Sheppard tells Cavanaugh.
"There are tens of thousands life-sucking aliens in advanced spaceships on their way to destroy us, and we have 200 people, mostly scientist. Who have never even fired a gun before." Cavanaugh tells Sheppard.
"Keep it up and there will be 199 people." Emma whispered to Carson.
"Shockingly, for the first time ever, I have to agree whit Cavanaugh." McKay tells Sheppard as he points his finger over at Cavanaugh.
"Let`s make it 198 people. Emma says, giving Cavanaugh an angry glare.
"All I am saying, it let`s not give up, just yet." Sheppard tells Cavanaugh and looks towards Elisabeth.
"Oh, and what was that we all were supposed to remember, something? Something important. Oh, right. The Alamo." McKay says whit his hand on his forehead.
"Granted you guys are all scientist, no one will put you on the front lines, but sciences can turn the tides of war. Look at the A-bomb." Sheppard says, holding out his hand to McKay and Zelenka.
"Not exactly our proudest moment." Zelenka tells Sheppard as he takes of his glasses.
"The wraiths are not here just yet and until then remain focused on what you all do best. Like I said of the top, if there are any options I want them." She told the room.
"That is all." She said, walking out of the conferences room.
Three hours later
"Some believes that the Ancestors had returned their loved ones to them. They had been blessed whit the gift that made them unwanted by the wraith. Others even told tales of how the taken had somehow vanquished the wraith. But soon, the taken begin to be feared."
"Why." Emma asked her.
"They spoke of hearing voices, many began to behave strangely, some became violent even murderous."
"It doesn't sound like Ancient, were responsible for that." Elisabeth said as she looked towards Emma.
"No, the village turned on the taken, it was a massacre. All but a few was killed. The rest was ostracized, and send away. After that, no others that were taken from the village ever returned. But those few who survived, they are the ones Charin believes have the gift."
"And one of the taken that survived was-"Sheppard says as he looked at Teyla.
"My lineage. I have the gate address to that planet where this happened. Charin says the village is long gone, all that is left are ruins. But I still wish to go."Teyla says.
"Now?" Elisabeth asks her.
"I believe that this must be coming to light now, for a reason. Maybe we can find evidence of what really happened."
"Look Teyla. There are a lot of things that we need to get done." Elisabeth tells her.
"Maybe there is away to fight the wraith that we have yet to discover. Perhaps my ancestor were simply not enlightened enough to recognize their gift for what it was." Teyla says, looking from Elisabeth to Sheppard.
"It docent hurt to have a look around." Sheppard tells Elisabeth.
Elisabeth sigh, looking at Teyla and then Sheppard.
"Okay. Go." She tells them, and Sheppard and Teyla walks out of Elisabeth`s offices.
"Are you coming?" Sheppard say as he turns around to look at Emma.
"Me?" Emma asks him, pointing a finger at herself.
"You wanted to go off-world." Sheppard tells her whit a smile on his face." Here is your chance."
"Go." Emma hears Elisabeth tells her.
Emma smiles as she walks whit Sheppard out of the office and in to the transporter.
"Well?" Sheppard says as the doors closed.
"What?" She asks him as the walk out of the transporter and down the hall.
"This is two nice things I done for you to day." He tells her whit a boys smile on his face.
Emma stops mid in the hallway, and she looks to see if there are people around and when she is sure they are alone. She pushed him up against the wall, moving her mouth over his in a hard passion kiss.
"Thank you." She says, leaning her forehead against his for a moment.
"If this is what I get for letting you go off-world. What might I get, if I was to tell you I am putting you on one of the off-world teams?"
Emma took a step backward as she put her hand on his chest, looking in to his hazel Eyes to see if he was messing whit her.
"You serious?"
"You were right. I do need someone like you on, one of my teams."He tells her as he moves his fingers around the hand on his chest.
"Just promise me you be careful, that is all I ask."
"I promise." Emma smiled at him.
Later on the planet
"Sir, there is nothing here." Aiden says as he walks over to stand beside Sheppard.
"I know." He says as he looks around the ruins.
"It is dark, shouldn't we be getting back?"
"Give her a few more minutes." Emma tells them as she looks toward Teyla, seeing her picking up an old bowl.
"Sir."
"I need her to put this behind her, get some sleep. We all do, so whatever it takes." Sheppard tells Aiden.
"I got something." McKay tells them as he looks down at the life-signs detector.
"Really?" Emma asks, as she walks over to McKay to look at the life-sign detector." What do you got?"
"I don't know. I got a little-"McKay says as he walks toward the mountain side, looking up at it.
"McKay!" Emma says as she walks right behind him.
"I am picking up a faint energy signal. Getting stronger." He looks up at the mountainside, whit a look of confuseded on his face.
"Coming from there."He says, pointing his finger at the mountainside.
"There is nothing there."Aiden tells McKay.
"The magic ancient device hasn't lied yet." McKay tells Aiden.
"It is solid." Sheppard tells them as he pushing against the mountain wall.
"There is definitely something weird here." McKay tells them.
"Weird how?" Sheppard asks.
Emma looks up from the device to see Teyla walking over to touch the mountain wall and she push against it, and when she push a second time she falls through the mountain wall.
"Teyla!" Emma yells out as she runs over to the mountain wall, and she put her hands on it as she pushes again it.
"Maybe if you got a good running start. You know really slams in to it." McKay tells Sheppard.
Sheppard turns too looked at back, when he hears a yell; he turns around to see Emma standing in what looks like a cave.
"How did you do that?" Sheppard asks her.
"I do not know." Teyla says as she looks up and then back down at them." I was just looking for a way out."
Sheppard and Aiden walks in to the cave whit there p-90 in front of them.
"What is this place?" Emma asked as she moves some cobweb away whit her hand, as she walks further inside the mountain.
"It looks like the inside of a wraith ship." Aiden says.
"But what the hell were the doing here?" McKay asked, looking towards Sheppard.
"McKay over her." Emma yells out to him, as she looks at what looks like a database main farm.
"What do you got?" McKay asks, walking up behind her.
"I am not sure, but it looks like some kind of a computer."
"You are right." McKay tells her as he pushed her away so he got look at it.
"If it is like our computer systems, can`t you make a backup drive. So we can take the data whit us." Emma asks him.
"Yes, of course I can. " He tells her as he takes out a data pad from his backpack.
The next day
"This can`t be right."Emma said as she looked through some papers, there were laying on Elisabeth`s offices table. A few minute later she looked back at the lap top in front of her.
"I am right, aren't I?" Elisabeth asked her.
"But that means the wraith language is derived from ancient." Emma said as she ran her fingers over her forehead.
"Maybe we should go get Carson." Emma asked Elisabeth.
"That it what I was thinking." She says as she moved her chair away from the desk. She got out of the chair and walked out the offices alongside Emma, through the control room and in to a transporter, and when the doors opens, the walk down the hall and in to the chair room.
"Gentlemen, how is it coming along?" Emma asked the three men standing by the chair.
"Well, not good." McKay tells her.
"This won`t help. Carson we need you." Elisabeth says.
"Thank god." Carson says as he lets out a deep sigh.
"We were using him." McKay says aloud.
"Is someone hurt?" Carson asked Elisabeth.
"You were right." Emma tells him.
"Lovely, about what?" He asked her as he turns his head to look at Elisabeth.
"Your theory of the wraith evolving after the ancients arrived in Pegasus." Elisabeth tells him.
"Pay up." Emma hears Zelenka tell McKay.
"The wraith language is derived from ancient." Emma tells Carson.
"That doesn't –"
"Rodney, please." Elisabeth says.
"That is not why we needed to see you." Elisabeth tells him." We were able to translate the first part of the log.
"Really?" Carson says as he walked out of the chair room whit them.
The morning after
"Good morning." Teyla says as she walks in to the lab.
Emma looks up from behind her arms, which were resting on the table, giving Teyla a tired smile.
"You look like I feel." Teyla tells Emma.
"We have been up all night."Elisabeth tells her as she put her cup down on the table.
"You wanted to see me." Teyla says, as she looks at Elisabeth.
"You better sit down love." Carson tells Teyla.
"What is it?" She asked, looking at them.
"We translate the first part of the log, you and Emma brought back and …. Are you sure you don't want to have a seat?" Elisabeth asks her again.
Teyla looks toward Emma and she took the cup away from her lips, when she sees Teyla looking at her for answers.
"The wraith was conducting experiments on your ancestors." Emma says as she put the cup down on the table.
"It was just one wraith, actually he was doing it against the wishes of the other wraith, in secret." Elisabeth tells her.
"What was he doing?" Teyla asked them.
" I think he was trying to make their food source more compatible whit their species." Carson tells Teyla.
"I don't understand?" Teyla looked at them confused.
"It was very easy to miss. I couldn't even make the comparison necessary to isolate the specific strand. we needed wraith cells, which we got, but also a top mapping of the genetic code which wasn't 50% complete-"
"Please, tell me." Teyla says, getting upset.
Carson looks at Elisabeth then towards Emma, before he looks at Teyla.
" You got some wraith DNA in your genetic make-up." Carson tells her.
"Teyla. It doesn't change anything." Emma says as she walks around the table, towards Teyla, but she stops as Teyla holds out her hand on front of her.
"Teyla?"
"I am sorry." Teyla says, as she walks out of the lab.
An hour later
"You saying Teyla is part wraith." Sheppard asked them.
"Yes, a very small part." Carson tells them.
"Which make her as different from us as you, John. Because of the ancient gene you have." Elisabeth says.
"Well and other thing." McKay says.
"Still. Bates is going to go nuts." Aiden says as he looks at Emma.
"Let´s keep this one under our hats."Sheppard says as he holds out his hand.
"Well, obviously Teyla is concerned how everyone will react." Elisabeth tells them.
"I told her it doesn't change anything." Emma said, looking at Sheppard.
"So what you think the wraith scientist was trying to make the humans more what, more tasty?" McKay asked.
"The log indicates that he was looking to make the feeding process more efficient." Elisabeth says.
"I thought you said they had some genetic characteristics similar to humans?" McKay asked.
"Yes, they do, must more closer to the bug creature that attacked major Sheppard then us." Carson tells them.
"Hey, I through we weren't going to mention that anymore." Sheppard tells Carson.
"Sorry." Carson tells him whit a smile on his face.
"Also interesting is the fact that the wraith language, appears to be derivative of ancient, which seems to suggest the wraith evolved after the ancient arrived in the Pegasus." Emma tells them.
"Wait, are you saying the ancient made the wraith?" Sheppard asked.
"My theory is that the ancient unwillingly allowed the humans to evolve on a planet whit an insect like species on it." Carson said as he looked at Sheppard.
"At some point, the insect fed on humans and somehow incorporated our DNA on to theirs. The wraith is an evolution of that combination."
"So they did created the wraith." Aiden said.
"By accident." Carson says.
"Our negligence." McKay says as he looked at the others.
"Either way, it doesn't matter." Elisabeth tells them.
"The more we know about the wraith physiology, the closer we get to a biological weapon that can attack the wraith and leave humans unharmed." Carson says.
"Yes, but at the moment, all we know is that the ancient might have accidentally created the wraith and why Teyla can sense them coming."
"Mystery-solved, but neither of which help in any way, nor will stop the wraith from coming." McKay says.
"Rodney is right." Elisabeth says as she looks towards Sheppard and Aiden.
"Let's get back to work."Elisabeth tells them.
"Thank you." McKay tells her as he turns around and walks out of the conference room.
Emma moves of the table, as Sheppard steps in front of her.
"Are you okay?" He asked, as he looked her over.
"I am fine. Nothing a pot of coffee can`t fix" She tells him, as she leaning her forehead on his chest.
Sheppard leans down to rest his chin on her head, as he runs his fingers up and down her back.
"Sheppard I need you to-"
Emma turns her head to the side to see McKay standing in the doorway to the conference room, looking at them whit confusing all over his face.
"What is this?" He asks, as he moves his finger between them.
"It is called a hug, McKay. You should try it sometimes." Emma tells him as she moves out of Sheppard´s arms.
"I know what a hug-.
"Wait." He says as he walks in to the room." Are you to dating our something?"
"Where have you been, McKay?" Aiden ask as he walks in the room.
"Whoa, hold up. How long has this been going on?" He asks, pointing his finger at them.
"4 months." Sheppard says.
"Were was I when all of this was going on? I mean, I was here all the time."
"What do you need, Rodney?" Sheppard asked him.
"Oh, I need you in the chair room."
"Okay, let´s go." Sheppard tells him, walking out of the conference room.
"Can I help you, whit anything." Emma asked him.
"You and Sheppard-"
"McKay." Sheppard yells from outside the room.
"Yes, yes. Chair room." He says, pointing a finger at Emma. "You-"
"McKay go!" Emma tells him as she points her finger at the door.
"Yes going." He says, walking out the conference room.
Emma schaks her head as she laughs at him, as she turns to Aiden.
"What can I do for you, Aiden?"
"Sheppard wanted me to help you, getting your gear together."Aiden tells her.
"Can we do it later, I really want to be there when Elisabeth translate the rest of the log.
"Sure." He tells her.
"Thank you." She smiled at him as she walks out the conference room and down the steps and in to Elisabeth`s offices.
2 hours later.
"All right, even whit major Sheppard in the chair, we weren't able to-"McKay stops talking as Elisabeth holds up a finger.
"What, what is that?" He asks her, as he holds up a finger.
"Something you said made me wonder." Elisabeth told McKay.
"I through you said there was more important thing-"
"Why did the wraith stop the experiments?" She asked him.
"What did I say that made you think that?" He asked her confused.
"I can`t remember."
"Well it is just – it is a good point. I am just wondering what I said, cause-"
Elisabeth looked up at him eriated.
"Sorry, you were saying?"
"At first we through it was because the others wraith caught him." Elisabeth tells him.
"They didn't?" Sheppard asked.
"No. According to this, he stopped on his own." Emma tells them as she leans back in her chair.
"See. Now you got me wondering why the wraith didn't want these experiments in the first place." McKay tells Elisabeth.
"Exactly."
"Especially since they were supposed to be intended to improve things for everyone." McKay says.
"She just said that, Rodney." Emma says as she leans her arms on the table.
"I just said it." He says.
"Will you stop it." Sheppard tells him.
"Okay, here´s the most interesting part, the wraith communicate whit each other using some sort of telepathic network."
Yea, I noticed that." Sheppard says.
"But thankfully, they can´t seems to read the minds of humans, through."
"That is good, but what does this have to do whit the wraith stopping the experiments." Sheppard asked as he looks at Emma.
"Because by combining even a small amount of wraith DNA whit humans, the scientist was giving the humans wraith mental abilities."
"The subjects of his experiments were able to hear the wraith communications." Emma told Sheppard.
"So, the stories Teyla told, the voices that the people was were-"Sheppard asked as he looked at the both of them.
"Were wraith." Emma said.
It must have driven them mad." Elisabeth says.
"The wraith scientist couldn't find a way around it, so eventually he gave up."
I don't understand, why let them back in to the general population?" McKay asked.
"It seems he thought interbreeding whit normal humans might dilute the effect." Elisabeth says.
"And before he realized it was to lat." McKay says as he looked at Elisabeth.
"When the others wraith did find out what he had done, they wiped out all the people on the planet. But not before several of the test subjects had already been ostracized and forces to leave.
"Okay, so how does that help us?" McKay asked.
Emma and Elisabeth looked at each other, and then over at Sheppard and McKay.
"Teyla may have more than just the ability to sense the wraith coming." Elisabeth says.
"So what you think Teyla might be able to tap in to this wraith psychic network?"
"Yes." Emma told McKay.
"If she can, we be able to gather all the Intel we ever needed about them." Sheppard tells them.
"Wait." Emma says as she turns to look at Elisabeth. You cannot ask her to do that. That is not far, of us to ask her to do something like this." Emma says.
"John is right." Elisabeth tells her as she looked over at Sheppard.
"Who knows, what he might be able to learn about the wraith."
"Elisabeth, we don't know how it works, our what might happen to Teyla." She says looking to Sheppard for him.
"Emma we need to try." He tells her.
"I am not going to ask her to do this." Emma says as she walks out of the offices.
"Emma, Emma. Will you slow down a minute?" She hears Sheppard call out to her.
She turns around so fast, making him take a step backwards as she points a finger at him.
"We have no right to ask this of her." She said getting angry.
"Listen." Sheppard says, as he moves his fingers around the finger that is pointing at him.
"You don't like it, I get it, but McKay is right. There is three wraith hive ships on it way here-"
"We don't know what it might do to her. Our damages it could cause her." Emma tells him.
"We are running out of chooses. Emma."
"I know." Emma said upset.
"I know you care about her, we all do. But don't you think it should be her chose?" Sheppard asked her.
She let out a sigh."You are right. I am just so tired; I am letting my feelings get the best of me." She tells him.
"You should get some sleep. "Sheppard tells her as he pulls her against him, kissing her forehead.
"Yea. Sleep dose sound good, right about now."
"I will get you, if anything happens. Okay."
"Okay." Emma smiles up at him.
"Good." He tells her as he gives her a quick kiss, and walks down the hall, leaving her standing there in the hallway for a second. Until she turns and walks down the hallway to her room.
Emma don't know how long she been asleep, when she hears Aiden voice coming from her earpiece.
"Yea what is up?" She asks him, rubbing her eyes.
"It is Teyla." Aiden tells her.
"What is wrong whit Teyla?" She asked him as she get out of the bed.
"We are in the infirmary."
"I am on my way." She tells him as she runs out her room and a few minutes later she is walking in to the infirmary. She sees Teyla laying in one of the beds, and she walks up to them.
"I am fine." Teyla tells her, when she sees the worried look all over Emma`s face.
"I told Sheppard and Elisabeth it wasn't a good idea." She tells them.
"I was so close, so close. I think if I had another chance-"
"Teyla you don't have to bevies anything to anyone." Emma tells her as she puts her fingers around Teyla`s hand.
"Emma is right." Aiden tells her.
"I think I could make a difference, I saw a hologram. I think it was a map, maybe even a battle plan."
"We know their battle plan. They are coming to wipe us out." Aiden tells her.
"I am not sure that is true?" Teyla tells them.
"What, do you mean?" Emma asked her as she looked toward Aiden.
"They want something from us."
Yea, they want to eat us." Aiden says.
"No, something more, they are desperate."
"Really?" Aiden says, looking up at Emma.
"Yes, it is surprising. They are confident in their dominance over us, but mainly because there are so many. To sustain for long. They have all awakened early and there is not enough food to go around. I was just a feeling, the voice were so hard to separate."
"You don't remember one of them speaking through you?" Aiden asked Teyla.
"No, but I remember the feeling just before it happened. Next time-"
"I don't think Doctor Weir is going to let there be a next time." Aiden tells her.
Emma sees the look, Teyla and Aiden are giving her, and she lets out a sigh.
"Okay I will talk whit Elisabeth." Emma tells them as she turns around and walks out of the infirmary, and walks down the hall leading to the control room; she walks up the stairs to the conference room. As she comes closer the doors opens up, and she sees Sheppard and Bates turning around to see who is coming.
"She wants to try again." She tells Elisabeth as she walks in the room.
"Look Elisabeth, she said she was close to something big, something she`s convinced we need to know."
"No, I am sorry. The problem is I am not sure Teyla is thinking what is best for herself." Elisabeth tells her.
"Our. She could compromise us further." Bates says as he turns to look at Emma.
"At this point, we have more to gain from the wraith than they do from us." Sheppard tells Elisabeth.
"She wants to do it. There may not be anything to stop her from trying, so is it not better if we all were there?" Emma tells Elisabeth.
"Okay, we will try again, but if anything goes wrong-"
"I understand." Emma tells her whit a smile on her face as she turns, and walks out of the conference room.
20 minute later
"Okay, close your eyes and relax, and listen to the sound of my voice." Kate tells Teyla.
Teyla takes a deep breath, closing her eyes as her body starts to move around in the bed. A few minute later, Teyla starts to move her whole body as if she is trying to fight something off.
"Is she okay?" Emma asks Carson.
"Beak the connection." Elisabeth tells Carson.
"It is not working." Carson tells her as he keeps on pushing the bottom.
"No...No." Teyla yells out.
"Teyla!" Carson says as he moves to put his hands on her shoulders, but at the same time, Teyla opens her eyes, hitting Carson in the face, making him fall to the floor. Teyla gets out of the bed fast as she turns around to grape the IV pole, and she smashes the computer whit it. And as she smashes the computer, Sheppard moves down to his knees and cover his head whit his arms. Teyla seeing this hit him in the back whit the IV pole, making him fall flat on the floor. Aiden sees Sheppard on the floor, so he runs up behind Teyla and put his arms around her, but she turns to the side as she throws him face first in to the floor.
"Elisabeth!" Emma says as she moves to stand in front of her.
"Teyla this is not you." Emma tells her as she walks backwards as she holds her arm behind her as she push Elisabeth backwards as Teyla walks closer and closer to them.
Emma sees Bates coming from behind the corner whit a wraith stunner, and he points it a Teyla and he fires it, once then a second time, before she goes down.
Teyla! "Emma calls out as she runs over to by her side, as she gets down on her knees to check for a pulse, and she looks up when she sees Sheppard by her other side.
"She is okay." Emma tells him.
Later that night.
"You are hard women to track down."
Emma opens her eyes to see Sheppard standing over her. As she peeked out from under the edge of her glasses as he sat down beside her, leaning his back agents the wall of the tower.
"What is up?" he asked her, nudging her thigh whit his.
"Just thinking."
"About?" He asks her.
"The other me." Emma says as she takes of the glasses as she turns her head to look at him.
"Was she scared of leaving Elisabeth here all alone, and I know me … I mean I think I know, what she most have been feeling –"
"Emma what is going?" he asks her as he leans in to wipe away the tires that is falling down her cheeks.
"Open your hand."
"What?" he asked her whit a confused look in his face.
"Open your hand." She tells him, holding a closed fist over his hand.
He turns around his hand, and she props a chain in to his palm.
"I don't want there to be any secrets between us." She tells him, as he looks down at the chain.
"Dog tags?"
"They were my husbands."
"Your husband?" He asks her as he looks over at her.
"He was killed in action two years ago. I was on a mission on another planet –"
"Emma you don't have to explain-"
"Please I need to do this." She tells him as she moves around to sit in front of him.
"For two years I was fine on my own, I like it that way. Because that mend I did not have to feel the pain of losing someone ells. Then I meet you." She tells him as she hold out her palm to him.
"And somehow you made me love you John, and… and know I am sacred that I might lose you, and I can't go through that pain again. Because I don't think I would be okay if I lost you."
"What are you saying?" He asked her whit hurt and angry in his hazel eyes.
"I am saying, if you die on me, I will find away to bring you back and kill you myself." She tells him as she takes some of his t-shirt into her fist.
"I don't want to give you, but I can`t let you hurt me either."
Sheppard leans in to look in to her blue-green eyes. "You had me scared for a minute." He tells her as he moves his mouth over hers in a soft kiss.
He put his forehead against hers." Thank you for telling me. I cannot promise you I won't one day die, but I will promise you this. I will do my hardest to always come back to you."
"Please do." She tells him as she moves the palms of her hands to rest on his cheeks as she kisses him back whit all she has to give.
A few minutes later , she finds herself in-between his opened lags and her head is resting on his chest, as the looks out over the ocean.
"Emma can I ask you something." He asks her as he kisses the top of her head.
"Sure." She says as she looks up at him to see he is looking down at her.
"The other you, you asked if she was sacred-"
"She left Elisabeth behind all alone in Atlantis, to go back to earth were all the people she loved didn't exact yet. She must have been so scared, John. You, Aiden, Teyla even Rodney, she did not have to know that loss, but I do. "So do me a favor?"
"Anything." He tells her as he moves his arms around her stomach.
"Look after Aiden for me."
"You really care about him?" He asks her.
"He is like the little brother I never had." She tells him.
"Well I can tell you , that he cares about you to." Sheppard tells her as he smiled down at her."
"Yea?" Emma asks him, looking up at him.
"Yes." He tells her as he leans his head down to give her kiss.
She leans back in to his chest and rests her fingers on the arm that is holding her safe and warm as he look out over the ocean.
