Unless I get some new review I am not going to update for a while.
After Liz left the mess hall she headed to the control room to see if Rodney had checked in at all. The conversation with Major Sheppard hadn't done anything to alleviate her growing discomfort. He was right it wasn't like Rodney to miss a meal. He usually ate before anyone else began to think about food, and he had missed lunch and had just missed dinner. She sighed. It wasn't like him to disappear. The last time that he hadn't been seen for a while Major Sheppard had locked him in a closet and forgot that he was there. She walked briskly through the halls her agitation showing on her face. She began to walk faster. She was going to fast and was too busy with her own thoughts that she collided with Teyla.
"I am sorry Doctor. Are you injured?" The tall Anthosian looked a little distracted as well.
"No Teyla I just wasn't paying attention to were I was going. You haven't seen Dr McKay have you?"
"No I have not. Are you searching for him as well?"
"You're looking for Rodney?"
"Yes, he was supposed to meet me for something called coffee this afternoon."
"I haven't seen him since I sent him to fix a generator over six hours ago."
"I will go to the location of the generator and look for him."
"Thank you Teyla."
They parted Liz going to the control room while Teyla went to find the missing scientist. First she stopped to collect a flashlight and some energy bars, in case the doctor had forgotten to eat again, and finally Lut. Ford for company. He wasn't exactly happy but if something had happened to the scientist she wasn't going into a dark place without backup.
"Teyla, Dr. McKay probably forgot what time it was."
"I do not believe he would have been gone for so long without contacting anyone."
"I don't know but I don't know how he could get in trouble in Atlantis."
"I believe he has done it before."
"Hey kids where you going." They both looked up to see Major Sheppard approaching.
"Teyla is making me come with her to find Dr. McKay"
"He hasn't come back yet?" A look of worry flashed across his face then he reached downs and grabbed a flashlight off the low table. "I am coming too."
Control Room
"Lut. Check life signs at the southeast of the city."
"Yes ma'am" Something bleeped. "There are two life signs in that area."
"Two?" Liz didn't like the sound of that for some reason. "Contact Major Sheppard tell him to get a team together and head to the southeast part of the city." She prayed that something wasn't wrong.
Generator room
The wind is silent, the air is thick and my eyes are clouded
The world has stopped its turning for just this moment
So I could share it with you
Just this moment
You and I
You are the popular girl in our high school called life
The smart one
The cute one
The one everybody wants to be
I am the strange one
Gone in the blink of an eye
Surfing silent shadows
Fighting the demons they contain
I am the silent hero
A fool for loving you
The wind is gentle
The Night is warm
I am lying here just looking up at the moon
The bitter moon
A tear slides down
A mask that can not cry
The night stops
The breeze is gone
The blood not flowing
The world standing still for just this moment
So I can share it with you
Just this moment
You and I
Don't cry dear one
Don't be a fool
Like I
Go to your life
You are not made for the shadows
You are made to be alive in the sun
Just share this moment with me
Just this moment
I and you
Rodney didn't know why that song was drifting through his head. He hadn't heard it in years it was too depressing and often hit too close to home. Except for the bravery part which were ever creeping closer to him everday. He stopped he could swear that he could hear San Carter's voice. Images were flashing through his mind. He let himself get lost in the dream.
"McKay what are you doing at the SGC?" She was so beautiful just like he remembered. She seemed to him the embodiment of all the thing he left behind on earth. Well she was probably the only thing he left behind on earth, besides his cat that it.
"Just visiting Major. You know driving you insane for the pleasure of it." He might as well enjoy the dream while it lasted because something told him that when he woke up he would be in a world of pain. He wondered what happened. The generator couldn't have exploded because he still wouldn't be alive if it had. There must have been a bomb somewhere else in the room. Who would want to kill him? Okay maybe that was a dumb question. Who wouldn't want to kill him? He was arrogant, brash, somewhat, somewhat, and what had he been thinking? It was getting harder to concentrate. The room was getting colder and his arms felt like they were being pulled out of their sockets. He couldn't hold consciousness at bay anymore he opened his eyes.
Oh and by the way I don't own Atlantis, Sg1 or any of these characters. The song above is mine however.
