Wandering around Earth-X, covering most of the important areas and Mari was still no closer to finding Ray or the totems. She had covered every area that had even a small trace of Reign and her posse. Mari didn't understand how Ray could have just disappeared. The totems too. It just didn't make any sense.

Ray had been following Mari around, calling her name, hoping that she would hear him or sense him even on a subconscious level. Maybe she could sense the totems. Or at the very least sense her own. The totems were after all right behind her. But it was no use. She didn't - or couldn't - hear him.

Ray was starting to feel a sense of despair. He didn't think that Mari would ever hear or notice him. What he didn't know is that Mari felt that same sense of despair.

Mari was beginning to fear that she would never find Ray when suddenly she remembered something very crucile. Something that she had long ago forgotten about Earth-X. Turning around, she headed back in the direction she came.

The thing that Mari had forgotten about was a disrupter and it was in the building that they had been in when Charlie and Sonnet as well as the people using the totems had disappeared from.

'How could I have forgotten about the disrupter?' Mari questioned herself, feeling so stupid.

What the disrupter did was it could transport people to astral planes. Other dimensions of the same planet, and that made sense. It made sense that Ray was on an astral plane. She thought she had heard him earlier, but she brushed it aside as wishful thinking. Now she knew that she had heard him. She couldn't believe that Ray had been calling out to her and she had just brushed him off as her imagination.

"I'm so sorry, Ray." Mari apologised, "I'm gonna bring you home now."

On the Waverider, Nate knew that he was supposed to take the people home to Earth-38, but he just couldn't. He couldn't give up on Charlie. He checked with the people and they all agreed with him. They wanted to look for Charlie too.

Nate didn't exactly know where to start, but he had Neil Vaega and Mona checking the library and doing comprehensive, historical research with Gideon. They were checking all the timelines, looking for their version of Charlie.

Mona and Neil weren't having much luck though. It wasn't really their fault. How could they possibly think to look on a different planet for Charlie, because that's where she is. She's on another planet. Nobody knows which one though, but it is another planet nonetheless. Actually most of the people that are searching for Charlie don't even know that Charlie's on another planet. Aside from John and Zari.

On Beebo Nation Earth, John hasn't made much progress in the way of finding Charlie other than his discovering that she's outside of their galaxy and that's why he can't locate her.

Charlie is really far out there. No one knows where to find her, how to find her, or even how to bring her home. That doesn't mean that they'll stop searching though.

Sara, Ava and Zari were suddenly startled by Mark Wendel stumbling out of the jumpship and announcing his presence. They stared at him confused. They had thought he had gotten onto the waverider with Nate and the others.

"What are you doing here?" Sara asked him

"I lost my wife in the siege at Mount Carmel in Waco. I'm not going back to Mount Carmel without Charlie. I'm not telling David that we lost his wife without even trying to find her." Mark explained

She nodded, "Okay."

"So what have you discovered so far?" Mark wondered

"Well, Charlie's in a different galaxy." Zari stated simply

But even knowing that Charlie's outside of their galaxy doesn't help much. Galaxies are huge. They have lots of planets in each one, and there are more than just two galaxies. There are probably millions of galaxies and without knowing which one that Charlie is in, it would take...well, actually they would never find her. Even if they knew which galaxy to search, the chances of finding Charlie were still very slim. What John needed to know was the planet that Charlie had been transported too.

Fortunately for John, Sara, Ava and Zari, they weren't the only ones searching for Charlie. Neither are Nate and the others for that matter. Not that they knew, but their good friends at Stargate command had been monitoring the Beebo Nation Earth since the moment of it's creation, but that wasn't all. There was another planet that they were monitoring before of an element that was in the planet's core.

"I know where Charlie is." Sam said, appearing on the Beebo Nation Earth by way of an Asguard beam.

"Wait, how did you even know that Charlie was missing?" Ava questioned

Sam shook her head, "Nevermind that. Just...Charlie's in trouble."

"Well where is she?" Sara asked

Sam looked very serious, "Ivetera. It's in the Othala galaxy."

"Okay. So Charlie's on another planet. What's wrong with that? Is it crawling with evil soul-sucking demons or something?" John spoke, being rather cynical.

"No. The surface of the planet is abandoned. But the planet's core is rich with neutronium, which made it the prime planet of a few remaining replicators that we had lost track of." Sam explained, "And now the core of that planet is made up entirely of replicators."

Zari furrowed her eyesbrows, "I don't get it. Why is that bad? What are replicators?"

Sam bore a very grim look on her face as she explained what replicators are, and then it is clear to John, Sara, Ava and Zari why Sam had been so worried when she first arrived. And why she was still worried.

Back on Ivetera with Charlie and Sonnet, they were huddled together. Charlie had felt another contraction. They were pretty far apart. The pain was nothing though compared to the thought that she could die at any moment. That she's going to die, possibly without meeting her baby and without any of her family around. And if that was scary for her, Charlie could only imagine how scared the little six year old clinging tightly to her was.

"Charlie?" Sonnet questioned, "How much longer do you think we have?"

"I don't know, kid." Charlie replied

Do you think Sonnet and Charlie are going to die?
