Alright, it took some work, and things may be slow going as far as posting new content (I am a full time student!) But I hope you enjoy chapter 2. I know it's kinda short, but I plan on working quite a bit more on chapter 3. Again, I don't own Farscape or Stargate. Thanks to everyone's input!
"You've got to be kidding me." O'Neill was looking at Crichton like he was nuts. "Do you think I'm actually going to let you inject me with something that attaches to my brain stem, even if it means I'll understand any language?"
He himself hadn't had a choice when he had received the translator microbes. If he had been given the choice he would have to admit, that he probably would have been reluctant as well.
Aeryn was standing near the door watching them. She had put her pulse pistol away, but her arms were crossed and she was watching the SG-1 team closely. D'Argo and Chiana had left a few minutes earlier. "Why don't you just have the DRD's inject them?" She asked "It looks like you're getting nowhere."
"I'm not gonna do that because I have a feeling that there's no way to piss them off faster than doing that." Crichton said.
"What do you mean 'piss us off'?" O'Neill demanded, his brow furrowed.
"Um er- Commander, is there any particular reason that everyone's so gung ho to have us take these translator microbes?" Daniel Jackson was looking at O'Neill with some concern. The Coronal seemed to be getting very impatient.
"It's something that everyone in these parts has." Crichton explained, "The rest of the thinks that a break down in communication could lead to some, shall we say, problems."
"I'm curious," Samantha Carter had been exploring the cargo bay up until now. "Why is it that we can understand you, but no one else?"
"I've had a tad bit of experience with English." Crichton replied non-chalantly.
"Why haven't you told them you're from Earth yet?" Aeryn asked. "All you've been talking about for over two years is getting back to Earth, and yet you think you've found four humans.
"I don't know." He answered truthfully. "This just doesn't feel right. Some things are familiar, but others aren't." Crichton hadn't been able to put his finger on it, but indeed, there was something 'foreign' about the SG-1 team. However he was having a hard time figuring it out because three of them were so undoubtedly American. He had decided not to bring up his home planet until he was sure about them.
"Where is this gate located at?" Teal'c asked. It was the first time Crichton had heard him speak since this whole thing began and he wasn't surprised that his calm exterior was matched with a serine sort of voice.
"You're on a ship called Moya." Crichton answered. "She's a Leviathan."
"Commander Crichton, Officer Sun, there's a vessel on an intercept course for Moya!" Pilot's usually calm voice was agitated as he interrupted them on the comms. "They warn us to prepare for boarding."
"Can we starburst?" Aeryn asked, suddenly tense again.
"Moya has tried." Pilot answered. "Something onboard is interfering with her ability to do so."
"It's that frelling gate." Aeryn groweled, "It has to be."
"Pilot, do you know who it is?" Crichton asked. Moya had been attacked several times and while none of them were good, certain attackers were better than others.
"The vessel is unknown to me, but I have detected no less than twenty individuals onboard." The comm channel was filled with static for a second and then another voice cut in over Pilot's.
"Leviathan ship, surrender and prepare to be boarded." The voice was scratchy and hoarse.
"Like hell we are." Crichton said. "Aeryn, go round up D and Pip, I'll try to get this crew prepped." Aeryn nodded and sprinted out of the room. Crichton turned to O'Neill when suddenly Moya lurched forward and everyone went sprawling to the ground. Everyone was plunged into darkness and there was an electric sort of feeling to the air. There was a loud howling noise like strong winds, the noise continued to build in intensity, until suddenly, Crichton heard a loud snap and he thought he could hear O'Neill swear somewhere off to his left.
