Chapter 10
------------
Teyla couldn't help but gasp at the name. Recognition clicked in her mind, making her frown, her mouth slightly agape.
"Lianea Emmagan?" she said, not being able to hide the surprise in her voice. Ba'al smiled at Teyla's confusion. "As in Deserek's wife, I though she was dead?" Ba'al chuckled.
"Well in a way…she is" he said, glancing at the woman. He smiled sadly.
"But she cannot satisfy me anymore, and the…'worm' as you called it needs a stronger better host." Ba'al tore his gaze away from Lianea turning his attention to Teyla, reaching out his hand. Teyla turned away without thinking, thinking he was going to strike her again. Ba'al caught her chin, turning her face to meet his. It was the look in his eyes that made Teyla swallow hard; something primal and lustful. He stroked her face gently and smiled.
"But you, you are different, stronger…" he stopped, leaning down till his face was mere inches from hers. At fist she thought he was going to kiss her, but gasped as he violently moved he head to the side, whispering in her ear.
"And when you do take in the symbiotes, you will tell me everything you know… your people will be mine to rule!" he said, then walked away.
"No!" Teyla screamed, reaching out to grab him. She suddenly felt her self being restrained by strong arms holding her down with bruising grips. She fought against them, screaming at the top of her lungs. Calling him, daring him to come back. But he never did.

It had been hours since Ba'al's departure, hours since they talked and hours since Teyla had stopped fighting, looking up at the ceiling through blurred eyes. Her arms throbbed from the dark purple bruises that had started to from there. The guards had left her a few hours after Ba'al, after they had beat on her a little more. They were mostly muscle, she thought to herself. They just liked causing pain. Ba'al on the other hand, was someone to be feared. He had the brains and the muscle. For the first time in Teyla Emmagan's life, she was scared.
She found her thoughts wandering. To her people, the times they shared, the battle and hardships they had been through. They were family. Then she thought about her real family.
Her father had always been there for her, always lent a helping hand, but was always strict when needed. He taught her how to withstand pain, taught her to be a good person and a good leader, but was always loving and gentle.
Her mother, however, she hadn't known. Her father used to tell her stories and she could vaguely remember her mothers sweet voice singing her to sleep. She had a photo of her, trapped inside a tiny golden locket.
Then she came to her sister, her twin. She had not told anyone about her, wanting to keep the painful memory of her death a secret. She died at the hands of the wraith at the young age of fifteen, taking a part of Teyla with her.
She was brought out of her thoughts by a loud bang. Jolting up to keep herself from falling off the stone table she lay on, she quickly jumped to her feet. Going to the window. At first all she saw was stars. Looking more closely she could just see the end of another ship, a large strangely shaped spacecraft that floated, its weapons firing in to the side of Ba'al's own ship.
The ship jolted again, causing her to fall hard to the floor. She cried out in pain as she landed on her wrist, a sharp stab of pain surging through her hand. She cradled her hand protectively against her cheek, getting to her feet. She started towards the door but came to a stop when it opened and gasped at the sight in front of her.

Daniel woke with a start, sweat covering his face like water. He looked around his room, seeing that he was the only one there. Looking at his clock her saw bright red numbers flash back at him. It was 0700.
Throwing the damp blankets to the side her swung his legs round and rested them on the floor beside the bed. Slipping on a pair of jeans and a shirt he started for the door, not bothering to take a shower.
Stepping out into the hall way he found it abandoned. Strange for this time of the morning. Running down the hall to the mess, he turned the corner, almost stumbling as he came across another empty hallway. Daniel was shocked at what he saw. Rubbing his eyes he looked again. The same sight greeted him. A golden corridor of a gua'ould ship extended in front of him. Flaming torches burning on the walls. Taking a deep breath, he started down the corridor, occasionally looking behind him. The small steps he was taking echoed and bounced off the walls, his breathing was harsh, and his movement, ridged.
"Daniel," a voice whispered. He stopped, searching the still empty corridor.
"Hello?" he shouted, the voice called to him again, it seemed distant, distorted and muffled.
"Who's there?!" he shouted, looking round.
"Daniel," it said again. It sounded close, human. He turned, seeing Teyla standing behind him.
"Teyla!" he said with a smile. She didn't smile back.
"You have to help me Daniel, please you have to come for me." He nodded.
"Where are you?" he tried.
"You have to come and save me, please!" she pleaded. Taking a step forward he stopped as Ba'al appeared at her side, his hand wrapped tightly round her neck. He smiled, bringing up his other hand. There Daniel saw a large, serrated knife in his hand.
"You can not save her Daniel, just like you couldn't save Sha're" Ba'al smiled, then drew his hand back, plunging the dagger through Teyla's chest.
Daniel woke suddenly, his breathing harsh. His head violently moved from side to side, glancing at every corner of the room. The clock beside him screamed for attention, its red numbers showing the time as 0730. He calmed, slamming his fist on the snooze button.
Showering quickly then getting dressed, he started for the control room. He was going to save Teyla, whether or not his team was behind him.
