***As always I do not own Stargate nor do I own Harry Potter. I would like to thank all of my reviewers****
….On board the Hermes cloaked in high Earth orbit...
"Sir we have a problem." said Commander Tonks.
"What is it?" asked Sirius as he tore his attention away from the report he was reading and redirected it onto Cmdr Tonks.
"Bra'tac arrived through the stargate about an hour ago he has informed them that Anubis is coming with his full fleet." replied Cmdr Tonks.
"Open a channel to Altera, I need to speak to the High Chancellor." said Sirius.
"Aye sir channel open." replied Mr Olivetti
As the viewscreen changed to show Harry in his office in Avalon Harry frowned and said "Sir we have just received a report Anubis is gathering his fleet he will be here in..." said Sirius as he looked at Cmdr Tonks.
"3 days sir." replied Tonks as more information came through she fed it to the console in-front of Sirius.
"What have the humans done?" said Harry in a no nonsense tone of voice.
"They are currently preparing. Although it seems the Vice-President doesn't think much of the threat. He reminds me a little too much of that idiot Fudge." said Sirius.
"What preparations are the humans making?" asked Harry.
As he read through the information on the screen in-front of him Sirius said "O'Neill has begun packing equipment they are preparing to depart for Chulak to join up with Tealc and Bra'tac where and what he intends to do I have no idea as yet."
"OK I want you to remain in orbit but under no circumstances are you to interfere. If we time this right we can get rid of Anubis once and for all. I will arrive on board the Poseidon in 9 hours. Potter out." said Harry.
….Avalon...
As Harry stood and went to OPS to contact Dan and Alastor he couldn't help but think of the conversation that was had in the council chambers recently.
….Flashback...
"We think we have a way to imprison Anubis!" said Dan.
"Really?" asked Harry somewhat shocked.
"Indeed we think that because Anubis is semi ascended he can be imprisoned within a containment vessel. We have been pouring over the results of his scan and we have deteremined that Anubis is not fully ascended. He is more closely related to the energy life forms we encountered millennia ago in the Pegasus galaxy. If this is the case we can beam him into the containment vessel. However we don't know if he has access to any ascended powers that would allow him to escape from it." as Dan explained Harry's amazement grew.
"That is an excellent idea. We have to find a way to …..."Harry stopped and thought about something he had read.
"A way to what..." inquired Dan.
"I was just thinking that maybe I should visit Kheb and see if I can speak to Oma. After all she was the one who ascended Anubis so it would be a fair assumption she would know the extent of his powers." replied Harry.
"That's an excellent idea. However we may not get an answer but it is worth a try." said Moody
….Flashback ends...
….Earth SGC...
As the gate was active and everything was being loaded through Dr Weir swept her deep brunette hair from her eyes. She spied Colonel O'Neill coming into the room and said "Do you need anything else I believe there is still a kitchen sink that can be taken."
Stopping in confusion O'Neill responded "Was that a joke?"
With a slight stutter Dr Weir replied "Yes, perhaps a bad one."
"Yes very bad but I sense hope for you." said O'Neill with a smirk.
"Well I hope for all our sakes you find what you are looking for Colonel." replied Weir.
"Thank you." said O'Neill as he continued onwards up the ramp and through the stargate.
…..Kheb earlier in the week...
As Harry Remus and he four guards made their way from the stargate to the monastery they could see the remains of the Goa'uld vessels and Jaffa as they passed. Coming to a crest in the rise they could see the monastery in the distance.
Moving along it took another 30 minutes until they finally entered the grounds of the monastery. Removing their shoes and weapons as this was a holy place they proceeded further into the monastery.
"Welcome Harry Potter." came a woman's voice,
Stopping Harry looked around and suddenly a being of white light appeared and took the form of a woman with auburn hair.
"Oma DeSala?" said Harry.
"Indeed. We have been watching you Harry and all of our children who have returned with you." replied Oma.
"And what do you think?" said Harry. Inwardly he was panicking slightly he knew that this was one of their ancient ancestors and she could wipe him out in a second if she so choose to.
"There is nothing to fear Harry. We are quite impressed that you have found your way home and have rebuilt our society and it seems to be better than what we had so many years ago." replied Oma.
"You know what we are here?" inquired Harry.
"Indeed." replied the enigmatic Oma.
"Then you know the question we need the answer to?" asked Harry.
"I do but..." said Oma as she started and then paused with a frown on her face as she looked to the heavens.
As they watched the could see another ascended being coming from the skies.
It was a moment later that another woman appeared. Dressed in the glowing white and silver garb of the ancients. She was a little smaller than Oma but had the same auburn hair and piercing brown eyes that spoke of secrets and knowledge.
"Greetings to you Harry Potter. I am Ganos Lal. We have been watching you and we have this to tell you." said Ganos as she spoke she startled Oma.
"Really?" replied Harry.
"Yes. We have watched and we know the question you want to ask us. The answer is Anubis has access to the ascended powers but he cannot use them due the the ban that was placed upon him. So in answer to your question yes he can be imprisoned within the containment vessel you have in mind." said Ganos.
"Why the change?" inquired Oma.
"We have been watching the Alteran's closely and we approve of the actions taken that are cleaning up the mistakes and messes we left behind. We are not taking direct action so our non interference policy is still intact." said Ganos.
"I thank you for the answers you have provided." replied Harry with a small bow.
"We will be watching Harry." said Ganos as she moved and cupped Harry's face with her hand.
Harry knew that information had been put into his mind by Ganos but did not let it show on his face.
"Thank you. We must be going now there is much to attend to." said Harry as he stepped back from the two ascended beings.
"We wish you luck in all your endeavours." said Oma with a small smile.
Nodding Harry was about to turn and head back to the gate when Oma called out "You are welcome here any time you wish."
"Thank you." said Harry in reply as he turned to Remus and his escorts he said "Come we have to return home."
As they left in mute silence Ganos watched and Oma said "They really are making us proud aren't they."
"That they are my old friend. That they are." replied Ganos as both she and Oma condensed into pure light and vanished up into the heavens.
….On board the Poseidon...
As the fleet swept through hyperspace the Poseidon and it's escorts along with the Zeus and 20 other starships preparations where underway for what was sure to be a battle for the ages.
"High Chancellor, we should arrive in Earth orbit in 90 minutes." said Moody.
"Excellent work Admiral." replied Harry.
"I want the ship cloaked and weapons ready when we arrive in the Sol system." said Moody.
"Sir we have a communique coming in from Captain Black on board the Hermes." said Commander Ochiba.
"On screen." said Moody.
"Admiral Moody, High Chancellor we have intercepted a message from SG1 they are onboard a cargo ship. They have travelled to Proclarush Taonas and retrieved a potentia. They will arrive in just under two hours. Also you should know that Anubis has sent an advanced party to Earth to see if they have defences the can counter them. The ships have taken a few pot shots and destroyed a carrier group." replied Sirius.
"The only reason they would need a potentia would be if he plans to reactivate the Antarctic outpost." said Harry.
"What would you like me to do?" asked Sirius.
"Do nothing allow SG1 to return and complete their mission. There has been no other actions from the Goa'uld?" replied Harry.
"Will do we shall see you soon. Black out." said Sirius as he closed the comm line.
"Open a channel to Altera." said Harry.
Yes High Chancellor." replied Commander Ochiba.
As the viewscreen changed Percy Weasley appeared "What can I do for you High Chancellor.?"
"Percy please contact Thor and inform him that Anubis is about to attacked Earth. We have also learned that O'Neill has received a download from one of the repositories and we will need him to remove the information before O'Neill suffers neurological collapse." replied Harry.
"Will do. Avalon out." said Percy as he closed the comm lines and went about the tasks the High Chancellor had set him.
Just over an hour later the fleet dropped out of hyper-space around Earth and cloaked.
As they watched the could see a massive fleet of 30 ships exit hyper-space and take up position above Earth.
….Oval office Washington Earth...
As the President and his advisors where discussing the situation a hum started to fill the room and the lights went out.
All of a sudden a figure appeared in the room. Secret service agents came bursting into the room and started firing at the cloaked figure.
After 30 seconds one of the the attending General's said "Hold your fire it's a hologram."
"I am Anubis." said Anubis as he spread his arms.
"Henry Hayes President of the United states. One nation among many." said the President.
"No longer, you will bow before your God." said Anubis
"I think not. Don't let the suit fool you we are going to bat on this. I am of course willing to accept your surrender." replied the President.
"If you had weapons that could counter mine you would have used them." said Anubis.
"Well see won't we." said the President as the hologram of Anubis vanished.
Turning to look at his aides he said "Too much?"
"Sir we have to evacuate to the alpha site you can stay in contact..." said Vice-President Kinsey.
"You go ahead Bob I'm staying." said the President.
"You..." said Kinsey.
"No you go ahead I'm staying and that's final." replied the President.
As Kinsey stood and left the room without so much as a backward glance the President turned to General Hammond and said "God knows you deserve to go George."
"No sir, I'm staying." said General Hammond.
"Well if you will accept it I have another job for you." said the President.
….SGC...
"Well I never thought you where a coward." said Dr Weir as she spoke to Kinsey.
"I'm a pragmatist Dr...by the way if you survive this you're through." sneered Kinsey.
Just then the power was cut to the base. "Manual iris control close it now." shouted Dr Weir.
"What are you doing, open that iris and dial the alpha site." said Kinsey.
Just then the gate activated and almost immediately after activation the room was rocked by a massive explosion.
"That was a nuke or worse." said one of the technicians.
In space above Earth the Goa'uld had started firing at power grids and communications terminals. Systematically taking out any means of global communications.
…..On the Poseidon...
"Sir we are reading a cargo ship exiting hyper-space on the trajectory to the Antarctic." said Lt Ivonava.
"This is it people. Everyone get ready." barked Moody as he waited to see what was happening.
"Sir the Goa'uld have dispatched Alkesh and gliders to deal with the cargo ship." said Commander Ochiba.
"The have modified the matter stream to bore a hole in the ice." said Harry as he read what was happening.
"Sir I am detecting another fleet of ships heading to the Antarctic. They are not Goa'uld. It appears to be the x-303 with a contingent of 302's with it to provide cover for the cargo ship." said Cmdr Ochiba.
"Sir I am getting reading the outpost have been powered up. The start up sequence for the drones is operating." said Lt Ivonava
As the dog fight raged in the skies above Antarctica the humans where putting up a good fight that impressed not only Harry but Admiral's Moody and Granger who where watching from their respective ships.
"Sir the vessel the Prometheus is moving away from the fight. They appear to be on a collision course with Anubis's mothership." said Lt Ivonava.
All of a sudden thousands of bright yellow drones shot out of the surface and began to obliterate the Goa'uld ships.
As the Prometheus seen the weapons fire they broke of their kamikaze run as the drones easily by passed the Goa'uld shields.
If anyone had thought about it they would have sworn that they could have heard Anubis scream out no. As his vessel was destroyed.
…...Oval Office Washington Earth & the SGC same time...
As the President and Dr Weir listened to the battle raging over the south pole from their respective positions in both Colorado and Washington they could hear a 302 pilot say "Thousands of bright yellow something I don't what they are they're coming from the surface. They're cutting the enemy fleet to shreds. My god it beautiful."
…...Poseidon...
"Sir we have a lock on the energy signature of Anubis." said Commander Ochiba.
"Beam him directly into the containment vessel." said Moody.
"Aye Sir." said Cmdr Ochiba as he carried out his orders.
"What now?" said Moody.
"Sir we have incoming ships. They are four minutes out. It's the Asgard." said Commander Ochiba.
"How many ships?" said Moody.
"There is 35 ships." replied Cmdr Ochiba.
In space the Asgard vessels dropped out of hyper-space and took up defensive positions around Earth.
"Incoming hail." said Commander Ochiba.
"On screen." said Moody.
As the viewscreen changed to Thor there was a small smile on his face.
"I see the Goa'uld have been destroyed." said Thor.
"Yes however it was not our doing the humans of Earth pulled one hell of a rabbit from their hat. They used the knowledge that O'Neill gained when again looked into our ancient repository. Using that knowledge they where able to acquire a power source for the outpost and powered the drones to destroy Anubis and his fleet." said Harry.
"What would you like us to do?" inquired Thor.
Thinking about it Harry said "I would like you to contact the SGC tell them you came in response to the Goa'uld fleet in orbit of Earth. Please do not mention us as before we have any contact with Earth I must speak to our high council. If you wouldn't mind please remove the knowledge from O'Neill's mind." said Harry.
"It will be done." said Thor as he closed the comm line.
"Admiral please send the shut down signal to the out post. Now that it is powered I do not want some power hungry idiot taking advantage of it's discovery." said Harry.
"Aye sir. Commander Ochiba if you please." said Moody.
"Aye sir transmitting now." said Cmdr Ochiba and after a few seconds he replied "We have received confirmation the outposts weapons are off line and cannot be reactivated by anyone on Earth."
"OK signal the fleet to return home." said Moody as he took his seat in the command chair.
In space the Alteran fleet swept into hyperspace and departed for Altera.
…..Earth SGC...
Everyone in the control room was celebrating the end of Anubis and the safety of Earth. In the gateroom there was a small flash of light and Thor appeared.
All of the marines in the gateroom point their weapons at him.
"Stand down." said Dr Weir as she entered the gateroom.
When the marines dropped their weapons down Dr Weir approached and said "Hello."
"Hello, I am Thor of the Asgard. We came as fast as we could when we detected the Goa'uld fleet in orbit of Earth." said Thor.
"We have destroyed the fleet however Colonel O'Neill has been placed in a stasis pod in the Antarctic." said Dr Weir.
"What is his condition?" inquired Thor.
"He's alive but unless someone can remove the knowledge he received in the download he will die." said Dr Weir.
"I shall tend to O'Neill." replied Thor and in a flash of light he was gone.
….Terra Defence Outpost Antarctica...
As Carter gazed at the sleeping form of O'Neill there was a small flash of light behind her and the rest of SG1.
Turning and raising their weapons they where surprised and stunned to see Thor.
"Thor." said Carter.
"Hello, we came as soon as we could. What is his condition?" inquired Thor.
"He asked to be placed in stasis. He knew he didn't have long left." said Daniel Jackson.
"Indeed, I shall transport us to my ship in orbit and remove the knowledge from O'Neill's mind." said Thor.
"Please anything you can do?" said Carter.
Immediately after there was four flashes and the humans and Asgard contingent vanished from the outpost. Reappearing in one the the many laboratory's on Thor' ship they took a moment to take in their surroundings when there was another flash of light and O'Neill appeared in the stasis pod in the middle of the room.
"I shall start the procedure." said Thor.
"Thank you." said Carter.
Almost immediately a set of bright light engulfed O'Neill's head. A moment later it was all over. Moving towards O'Neill the rest of SG1 waited on their commanding officer.
Taking a deep breath O'Neill began to stir. A moment later is eyes snapped open and he moved to sit up.
"Hey campers. Miss me?" said O'Neill.
"Welcome back."said Tealc.
Getting out of the pod O'Neill said "I take it we won?"
"Indeed sir, you don't remember anything?" asked Carter.
Pausing in thought O'Neill said "Nope not a thing."
"O'Neill the Goa'uld have been destroyed." said Thor.
"Thor buddy." replied O'Neill.
"It is good to see you." said Thor.
Just as O'Neill was about to say more Thor said "I shall transport you to the Prometheus."
There was a flash of light and instantly SG1 was gone.
Thor thought about everything that had happened recently and allowed himself a small approximation of a smile. "They are indeed the 5th race."
In space the vast Asgard fleet received a signal and as one they jumped into hyper-space.
….Avalon...
As Harry sat in his office reading through the days reports he couldn't help but have a small smile on his face. The Goa'uld leadership had been captured and Anubis was imprisoned things where looking good.
As he was reading through a report from Aiyana and Heimdall on the Asgard genetic issues he was interrupted by Hermione.
"Still working away?" she said with a smile.
"Oh I was just reading through the progress report from Aiyana and Heimdall." said Harry.
"Hhmm well I think you should take a break." said Hermione.
"Really and what did you have in mind?" replied Harry.
"I was thinking of a picnic." said Hermione.
"I like your train of thought." replied Harry as he stood and both he and Hermione left his office.
….Earth SGC...
As O'Neill went into Dr Weir's office he paused. Dr Weir was packing.
"Packing are we?" said O'Neill
"Yes, I have been asked to lead the research expedition in the Antarctic." replied Dr Weir.
"Really?" replied O'Neill.
"Yes with the Antarctic treaty everyone was posturing for space and ownership I was asked to head up the expedition as a viable leader." said Dr Weir.
"So who are we getting to replace you. Some government shill?" said O'Neill somewhat sarcastically.
"Well there is one person who despite his affiliation with the American Military was proposed as a leader for this facility." replied Dr Weir.
"Really and do I know this person?" inquired O'Neill.
"You know him very well Brigadier General Jack O'Neill" replied Dr Weir with a small smile.
As his mind caught up to what Dr Weir had said he looked slightly startled "Brigadier General." he said.
"Don't get me wrong it's on my list. I don't mind the promotion or the pay-check but there is a lot of paperwork that comes with it that I don't want to do." he continued.
"Well unfortunately they go hand in hand. Besides who knows how this place should be run better than you." replied Dr Weir.
….Avalon a week later...
The high council was again in session.
"We have a lot to go through today." said Harry.
"Indeed. With the capture of the Goa'uld leadership things are moving quickly in the right direction. We estimate that by the end of the month all of the Goa'uld will either be captured or dead." said Moody.
"That is fantastic news. By the way did you check out the other thing I mentioned." asked Harry.
"I did, however it is not possible by star-ship we will have to mount an expedition through the gate and take it from there." replied Moody.
Nodding Harry said "We shall look into it. Now another question what contact will we have with Earth. They have developed the necessary requirements for contact."
"I say we introduce ourselves when our gate is back working." said Dan.
"That sounds like a good idea. Maybe not immediately but we shall make our introductions soon." replied Sirius.
"What about the Wraith in the Pegasus galaxy?" asked the gruff former Auror Moody.
"We are nearing completion on the weapons satellites and the new ships. However I would like to propose that we return and deal with the Asurans first then take the fight to the Wraith." said Harry.
"Why the Asurans?" asked Moody.
"If what the cloaked satellites are telling us is correct they have built themselves a version of Atlantis along with a who planet full of our older technology. We cannot risk this falling into the hands of the Wraith or anyone else for that matter. Also it would be easier to deal with them if they are unaware that we survived." replied Harry.
"There is also the matter of the prime directive. When we return to the Pegasus galaxy almost every race that we encounter will not have developed any means of space travel due to the cullings by the Wraith. My question is will we enforce the directive or shall we relax it." said Dan.
"That's a very good question. I believe in the case of the Pegasus galaxy the directive should be relaxed not entirely but just enough that we can provide medical aid to the natives." said Sirius.
"That is something to think on for the next meeting. There is no point in making that decision now as it is still a few months away from our return." replied Harry.
As they sat they discussed various happenings within their domain. It turned out that it was a slightly longer session than normal but there was no need to rush.
