As Royce piloted the dart out of the caves, the rest of the teams were boarding the puddle jumper, and preparing to return to the Dragon. As Royce exited the caves, the two ships came wing to wing and shot up into the atmosphere.

As Jack activated the autopilot toward the hangar, Royce chirped over the com "Chris did you see Thor's ship? Its parked on top of the Dragon, docking with us. I think this could be trouble, that is a O"Neill class ship, and not something Thor would bring here, unless he was worried. We need to get there fast."

As the com went dead, three mother ships and several al'kesh flashed in from hyperspace, about 25,000 kilometers off the starboard side of the Dragon. As the ships formed up, the radios chirped again "Chris, this is Bri. We detected several ships on the opposite side of the ship. You need to beam aboard everyone that can fly a ship, so we can launch a fighter screen. We need time to undock Thor's ship. You need to hold them off for at least three minutes. "

Chris chirped a confirm signal back, and transported the teams out of the jumper, as he and Royce formed up around the Dragon, preparing to intercept the incoming ship. As they hovered out of view, four jumpers shot over them and barrel rolled to the left, aiming for the leading al'kesh.

As the four jumpers sliced threw the leading squadron of al'kesh, two turrets on the Dragon came online, firing quickly to destroy two more ships dropping in from hyperspace trying to surprise the jumpers. As the four jumpers piloted by SG-1 formed up again on the Asgard ship, Chris and Royce shot their ship from under the Dragon, making a quick hyperspace jump, to come at the ship from behind.

As the ships came back at the mother ships, two shot hit Royce's jumper obliterating it, closely followed by several al'kesh hitting Chris's jumper and knocking it out of commission. As the ships were firing at the two jumpers, Thor's ship had moved away from the Dragon and had started firing on the mother ships, obliterating all of them, thanks to the new upgrades in weapons he had installed.

As the jumpers returned to the hangar, they saw a single jumper speed past, aiming for where Chris and Royce's jumpers had been shot down. As the group of jumpers set down, Max and Corbin rushed toward the set down jumpers, activating them again, and speeding out of the hangar.

As Bri, Corbin, and Max all searched for wreckage, they came across Royce's jumper floating behind debris from Chris's jumper. They scanned the jumper, and found two life forms inside. As they moved closer Royce came over the intercom "Hey guys. Think you could teleport us out of here, my transport controls were destroyed by the hits I took. We are starting to lose air pressure. Hurry please."

As the signal went out, Bri beamed Royce and Chris out of the jumper, and into hers. As they recovered, she whipped the jumper around and shot back toward the Dragon, hoping to get them there fast, in case they needed medical attention. As the three jumpers landed, Royce rushed Chris out of the jumper and toward the infirmary.

As Chris was settled into a bed, Thor beamed into the room, along with another Asgard. Thor said "This is Loki. You have met before, but now he is reformed, and has agreed to help Chris, in return for us allowing him to return to our labs. Now please allow him to look at Chris."

As everyone stepped out of the way, Loki moved forward and scanned Chris with a hand scanner about the size of a large cell phone. As he read the results, he said "Chris will be alright, but he has gone into a come, to reduce the amount of oxygen he needed in the jumper. I have given him a sedative, so he should wake in a couple of days, but he needs to be left alone until then. Now everyone needs to leave."

As the group walked toward the conference room, Corbin came running up with a printout in his hand and handed it to Royce. As Royce read it, his eyes bulged and he raced down the corridor, the rest of the group following him, with Thor waddling as fast as he could.

When the group reached the conference room, Royce was pulling up a map of the galaxy, and looking at two sections that were glowing in red. He zoomed in closer and found several Wraith cruisers fighting with Nox ships. The Nox had a few more ships, and were winning, but at the same time, two asgard ships were fighting ten Wraith cruisers and barely holding their own about five hundred lightyears away.

As the fights escalated, Royce ordered Corbin "Go activate the hyperdrive, maximum speed. We need to get there as fast as possible. Also prepare several jumpers so we can take the fight to them." Corbin ran out of the room, while activating the transporter beam to take him to the bridge.

As Corbin disappeared out of the door, Royce turned to the group and said "We have a small problem. The Wraith have broken through the void and are attacking several of our cruisers right now. We are going to fight them, so get to your fighters now. Thor if you could go help Corbin on the bridge."

As everyone disappeared out of the door toward the hangar bay, Royce and Bri were left in the room. Royce said " Bri we are in trouble. There is just to much to help. I think we need to appraise SG-1 of their past. We just cant keep them under our watch. What do you think?"

Bri smiled and replied "I think it is time to. Chris was going to do it soon, but he won't be up for some time, so the task falls to me. I guess we should uplink them to their memories, and let them remember. That isn't the largest problem right now though. The Wraith are heading back to Atlantis, and I fear that the two pilots we left behind won't be able to do much help if they are needed. Someone needs to go back to Atlantis, and I fear that I am going to have to send you Royce. I can't leave because of what I must do, however much I wish not to. I need Max and Corbin, so you must leave now. Take one of the intergalactic gateships. It should put you out on the platform around Altantis. From there you need to hold, and wait for reinforcements, do not contact Atlantis. Go."

Royce clicked his heels togethere and raised his right arm straight across his chest, balling up his fist, saluting Bri. He then beamed out to the hangar and shot out of the hangar in a gateship launching his own gate, and bursting through to the Atlantis platform.

Bri watched him leave and sighed as the ship turned to face the Wraith cruisers facing them. They would devour them eventually with all the resources they now had, but how many would be lost before then? That is what tore at her heart and she wondered who she would lose and she did last time. Now she wished this over, but she knew that it would be a fight and it would cost her dearly.

She could only hope that Chris or her parents were not one of the losses.
