Author's Note: This is the last chapter but I do have more SGA stories coming. I have a few flash fics that I dug up as well as one chapter John/Teyla fic that I'm getting ready to post. I also have another story rolling around in my mind with the seventy or so others ones about how Atlantis gets home to the Pegasus Galaxy taking a young doctor Cassandra Fraiser with it. Anyway if you would like to see more of my work please let me know because writing and editing takes a lot of my time and if no one is reading there isn't much point in posting anymore.

All's Well That Ends Well

John stepped through the gate and was surrounded by ruins. All around him were the remains of the destroyed city but he still knew exactly where to go. Without speaking he took a few steps the way Jayla had brought him, there was something that way. In the dreams he'd never made it that far but whatever Jayla wanted him to see.

Then to his left he heard a child laugh and then he saw the ghost of the child dart in front of him chased by a dog like animal just before he toss the ball off. The animal barked and darting off before disappearing. Then suddenly there was conversation all around him as the landscape changed from ruins to a grassy park. The woman in white stood a distance away calling to him, motioning to a building on the far side of it.

Then suddenly there was a roar and explosions. Buildings crumbled and the ground was torn up as the world around him burned- John covered his ears trying to shut out the noise as his scenes were overwhelmed and he was tossed into a whole other world.

As quickly as it appeared, it all vanished and there was only silence around him. Then the sounds began again slowly first the child's laughter began and then the birds chirped. Rising up again he looked around. Just as it had on Athos the rubble was transformed into a thriving city. People pushed passed him as they went about their day.

A hand shook him gently. "Manon, you're day dreaming again. I'm sure the council will rule in favor of your plan, the council will tell you tonight. I can't see why they wouldn't your plan makes sense, just as mine does."

"I will be sad to leave all that we have worked for, but we must or die-" John shrugged. "In a matter of years this will all be destroyed, when the Wraith come. Has it been worth it? After all the hours you've spent on you project and I on mine, the time we could have been spending with our children. Is saving people in the future worth the sacrifices."

Jalen smiled. "Yes, some of those people will be our descendants our children's children. If we don't take to the stars, all we have done will be in vain. We must save our children and then they will benefit from all our sacrifices. It will happen, sometime in the future the Warith will be defeated. This war will finally end."

John nodded. "You are right. Now show me how your project has progressed."

Then it was gone and Rodney was shaking him.

"Snap out of it or Ronon is going to hit you."

"Why did you do that?" He pulled himself away from Rodney. "I was with Jayla. She had a way to defeat the Wraith. I need to find out her plan she worked hard to leave something for us. She sacrificed the few hours she had left, to help us, people she would never know."

Rodney stepped into his path. "John, you need to calm down. Your brain has been scrambled and we should take you back to Atlantis and have Carson look at you. You stuck your head in that ancient device and now you have a time bomb ticking in your head. Please listen to me."

"No, I'm not going back, not right now-" John moved Rodney out of the way. "Jayla, the woman in white, she led me here. Whatever were you supposed to find what's behind that door. We need to get inside." He motioned to the panel beside the door. "You need to get this door open; Rodney, I know you can."

Rodney pulled out his tablet and began to work on the door but fifteen minutes later he threw up his hands in disgust. "I can't do it. I thought I was close a few minutes ago but then it all fell apart. There is some kinda code there but it's based on a number system I don't know. It could be anything."

"How hard can it be? I mean all she did was this-" He placed his palm on the panel and to everyone's surprise it opened.

John stepped forward to enter but Rodney stopped him. "I thought you weren't going to go it alone anymore? I thought we were part of a team?"

"We are and I promise not to leave you behind if I can but I need to follow where this goes. It's too important to let go."

"Okay. We're here if need us and we'll follow the best we can."

"Now let's go inside and find out treasure." He walked through the door and entered the past as the light came on and the dust disappeared.

Jayla stood next to the window. "Come to the window and see. They are all complete and we have a stockpiled enough supplies to build many more." Together they looked out over her success neither saying anything.

"Now let me show you where to find the schematics as I pass my legacy to you, John Sheppard." She looked directly at him. "I have waited a long time for you to come. Do not let us down my people made great sacrifices to accomplish what we did." She touched the control panel and called them up.

"How are you still here? This isn't Manon's memories, you're here with me?"

"Janus provided the final piece of the puzzle but he also put me on the path to Ascension. It took me many years but I was able to succeed. Sadly, I left my loved ones behind but my new state allowed me to guard my secret and keep it safe."

"Was that why you helped me find those ZPMs. Were they part of you plan?"

"Yes, it took us many hours and Janus had to work in secret, hiding it from the others. They didn't think we should play with the future, but it needed it to be done. The future needed to be safe." She stepped up to John and placed her hands on either side of his face. "I will now take the information from you mind that you no longer need. Goodbye John Sheppard."

When John blinked he was back with Rodney and Ronon in the dust filled control room and he was again had full control of his mind. Jayla's memories were fading too except the information she needed him to know.

He scanned the control room panel and entered the sequence Jayla had showed him. It lit up and he scanned through the information amazed at what was here. All the missing information from the database was here. How to build drones, ZPMs and any other ancient device they could want.

"So what is it? What did Jayla leave us; some really big space gun?"

"No even better take a look." He waved his hand at the window and then crossed to look out with rodney because he would never tire of the sight.

"No way! Five Aurora class ship and two more half finished ones! Why didn't they use them?"

"They didn't have the ancient gene. Someone name Janus gave them what they needed and they built as many as they could before the Wraith came and they took to the skies to become the Travellers. She left them for me, for us."

Rodney smiled. "Well let's take one with us and get back to Atlantis, it's time we had the upper hand."

John nodded but he wasn't looking at Rodney, but the ghostly form of Jayla. "Do what we could not. The time is at hand for the Wraith's reign of terror to end. Do not betray our sacrifice. We died that you might free us all."

And then she was gone and John hoped he'd be able to do her proud and finish her work.

This story is now complete but I have been posting other flash fics on my site if you would like to check them out Google my penname and you will find me.
