"Cian! Can you see it?" Alex asked him. He was using her as support and blood from the cut above his eyebrow was getting into his eye but he could see a big grey shape that was unlike any he had seen, sitting in between some trees, it had a window at the front that looked like a windscreen and something that looked like it could be opened to get into the ship and, of course, Alex went straight towards it.
"Alex, I don't think this is such a good idea," Cian said "There could be more of them inside,"
Alex turned and looked at Cian, he looked in a bad shape, she had tried to clean his face up with her sleeve a few minutes ago but he was still bleeding freely from his nose. She hoped it wasn't broken.
"Maybe you should stay out here and watch out for me?"
"No! Alex, we should've run home ages ago, my ears are hurting from the sound of gunfire, I can't breathe through my nose and blood is in my eye not to mention you have a nasty cut around your jaw that's going to need stitches!" Alex reached up and touched her jaw then looked at her hand. There was blood on it... and on her collar, how had she not noticed that?
"We've got to help," she said and returned to feeling around the ship looking for a door. Cian gave a mental sigh and wiped his already bloody sleeve across his face and went to help her.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
"Ouch!" Jack (clone) backed away from the bars as he kicked them fiercely injuring his toe in frustration. "I can't reach the panel on the outside," he said.
"Do you think I could?"
"You are blind,"
"Doesn't mean I won't be able to reach it,"
Jack (clone) looked at Jack and gave in "Fine, come over here," Jack made his way over to the bars and felt his way over to the younger man. "Put your arm through there and reach to the right and feel the wall until you find the panel.
They stood there for a long time with Jack feeling around the walls until he felt something protruding out from the smooth surface.
"I've got it, but I think it's only the corner, it's too far away for me to get the buttons,"
"Doesn't matter we don't know the code anyway," Jack brought his arm back in and sat back down on the floor and his clone joined him. "Do you think they are winning out there?"
"Of course they are, they've got Carter," Though Jack knew something had gone wrong, he could feel it.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
"Major Carter!" The young Captain rushed to her side barely missing several shots. They were keeping the Ashrak at bay, they had killed three already including the one who had just shot Carter but there were more than they first thought. "Major are you alright?" She felt her pulse checking that she was alive, she was, then went to cleaning her wound with her emergency med kit.
Sam opened her eyes a little, ignoring the pain in her shoulder, and got up. "I'll be fine, Captain," she said "Get back to a safer position and don't worry about me," Sam rubbed her head from where it hit against the tree and went back to fighting.
She only had to for a little while until something caught her eye, Alex and Cian were standing by a bright door going into the enemy ship, Cian looked apprehensive but alive, thank God, but Alex looked excited and quickly grabbed his arm and pulled him into the ship closing the door behind them.
"Alex! No!" Carter shouted just before a white light engulfed her and her team and teleported them to safety.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
"Wow," Cian whispered. They were standing in a small, golden room with panels of buttons and seats that looked like that was where you pressed them from, they were looking out of the windows at the front of the ship and lights were flashing and beeping happily. "Alex we got to hide, we're not meant to be in here,"
"We have to find the Jacks," she said and quickly made her way into a corridor and first door she found opened automatically when she arrived, "Come on in here," she said.
The room it led into was dark except for a glowing sphere in the centre of the room. It was blue and there was writing on it that shone white hot. Alex was mesmerized by it and she stared making her way closer to the strange device on the podium.
"Alex I don't think you should go near it," Cian said nervously.
"I just want a look," It was totally different from the overall colour scheme of the ship, it didn't belong. Cian looked at her getting closer and closer to the strange thing and started fidgeting and looking anxiously in and out of the room before he sighed and gave up.
"You are going to kill me one day,"
Alex grinned at the statement and started walking around it trying to see it from every angle. "Ok, you've seen it," Cian said as her face came very close to it. "We need to find Jack!"
That brought her back to reality; she snapped her head up and nodded. "Yeah, come on, let's go," and they left the room.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
They found themselves on Thor's ship, which was a surprise for most of the group because that had never happened to them before but Carter ignored it and went straight to Thor.
"Thor! Beam up the children! Beam them up!" she ordered
"That was what I was attempting to do before they put themselves in danger by going into the ship but I am afraid they went in too quickly,"
"Well then send us back down to get them," she said more calmly.
"I cannot, you are all too injured to do any good,"
Sam looked around her people, all of them were sporting injuries that weren't dangerous but most of them were worse than hers and she nodded at Thor but it made her sick to be even thinking about leaving Alex and Cian down there. "Can you do anything to help?" If she got them healed quickly they could still rescue them.
