Part 34 A home away from Home PG

Atlantis was a beautiful city. John Shepard loved it more each day he lived here. It felt like home. All right there was a fly in the ointment. The Wraith were a constant threat but he still felt like this place was home. It had to be the ancient gene. He sighed as he leaned back and swung his gulf club. The small white gulf ball went flying off the west pier. He watched it land in the water and he smiled. Had to be a good 150 yards out. He smirked and hit a button on his remote. The gulf ball rose from the water and came flying back. He could not believe he had not thought of this sooner. I mean if he could get Rodney to make more they be rich back on earth. A returning gulf ball by remote. Pure genius. Of course he would never tell Rodney he thought that.

The cities alarms went off.

Damn it what now. He thought as he ran to the control room.

Starbuck and Apollo launched with Dr. Zee flying on his father's wing. Starbuck had been less then pleased with this but he had lost the argument and Zee was technically a warrior. That was something that still annoyed Starbuck. His son should never be risked. The three men launched and were followed by a puddle jumper containing Colonel Carter, Commander Adama and the SG1. Jack O'Neill flew point with Brie on his wing. This was going to be a very trying time. No one knew what to expect and frankly Jack wanted Adama safe and secure. He had not wanted Brie along either but he lost that argument before it began when Adama assigned her to fly as Apollo's wingman. Some days he just wished he found a simple girl but he found a warrior so he was stuck. He sighed and followed the others out. The only comfort was he had Teal'c to help keep an eye on Brie and the others.

The ship of Lights moved forward and snatched up their ships as they rose from the Earth's atmosphere. In an instant they were transported across the galaxy and came out not far from Atlantis.

The lost city was being pounded by the Wraith and John Sheppard knew it would take a miracle to save them this time.

Just then the Prometheus appeared from nowhere along with several vipers and the shuttle from Earth. The Earth Warship immediately joined her sister ship the Dautilus in defending Atlantis.

Dr. Zee awoke to find himself in a room on Atlantis. He did not hesitate but ran to a control panel ripping it off he quickly began to repair the weapons and shields.

"Ah frakin hell. Head's up Apollo looks like our friends dropped us in a fight." O'Neill said as he rolled his viper." Brie watch out they are good."

"Would never have guessed Jack." Came her sarcastic reply as she blasted several darts.

Colonel Carter and Commander Adama landed on the outer pad. As they ran out they fired on several Wraith that appeared from nowhere.

"Watch them Sam." Adama shouted.

Jack cursed as his ship was hit. He had no choice but to eject. He flew low near the city and hit his ejection button. Several minutes latter he was climbing a long latter into the city. I am getting way to old for this. He thought. There has to be a faster way in. To bad I can not beam in?

Suddenly a light engulfed him and he appeared in the weapons room. Sweet.

"What the--" John Shepard looked over from the chair and smiled. "Hey glad you could join us General. Though I not sure how you did it?"

"Me either John. Hey got a spare chair?" Even as he asked the question the city responded and a second weapons platform appeared. Jack wasted no time in sitting down and joining Colonel Shepard in defending the city.

"Sir I having problems with control. I think the systems been damaged."

"Yeh think." Jack said as he fought to control a drone. Suddenly the drone obeyed and went crashing into a wraith ship.

Dr. Zee's voice came over the inter com. "I have effected repairs General you should be able to control the drones now and the shield will be fully regenerated in 5 microns. I am heading to the jumper bay now to see if I can assist Dr. Mc Kay in tying them to the control interface."

"Be careful Kid." Jack said. He never let up firing the drones.

Zee smirked and ran to help the Earth scientists.
