Vid. Z: Thanks! Glad you liked it! kittn: LOL, can't help it, I love that episode! StarrGazer: (clears throat) No, I'm 'fraid not. Sorry. I'm a terrible author. (sob) Legolas0: Whoops! Thank ya! The rest of you... THANK YOU!
Mention of various people from SGA. This is before (obviously) they leave for Atlantis.
As WarmTea is currently preparing to go to New York Thursday and I didn't want to bother her, this chapter IS unbeta'd. All technical errors are mine (which will probably be numerous as Daniela always refines my stories for me)...
Enjoy! (ducks as readers chuck water bombs)
Carter boarded the 'copter and buckled up. "Who's the pilot?"
A face turned around. "Major John Sheppard ma'am."
Jack eyed him suspiciously. He had heard about him...John stared back before turning to face the controls.
The ride there made Daniel wish he'd never joined the Stargate program. John was a reckless flyer. Good, but obviously enjoyed making Daniel yelp even though he apologized for every move he made. Carter had a hard time to keep from laughing at the look on her friends face.
Once safely on the ground, they were hurried away by scientists to meet Elizabeth Weir.
Carter was only barely in the building when she heard...
"Samantha Carter..."
She turned around slowly. "Rodney McKay," She greeted between clenched teeth.
He continued to shake his head and smile. "It's amazing..."
"What is?"
"That you've alive! I heard about your death... was very tragic."
"It was huh?"
"Yeah. I almost got your spot at the SGC-"
"You did?" Jack asked pocketing his sunglasses.
"Colonel O'Neil!" McKay chirped. "It's good to see you!"
"It's General O'Neill," Jack said in a dangerous tone of voice.
"Yes of course, I-"
"DR. WEIR!"A voice shouted, "GOA'ULD MOTHERSHIPS WERE SPOTTED ENTERING THE ATMOSPHERE!"
Elizabeth Weir hurried up to them. "Are you ready General?"
He sighed, "I guess."
Carter watched as they lead him over to the chair. It was funny really. He hadn't the slightest idea what he was doing but he was the only one who could do it.
"What if he fails Sam?"
She turned to face Daniel. "He won't."
"But what-"
"He won't."
Å
Jack carefully took a seat on the chair. "Where's the cup holder?" He joked.
Elizabeth smiled. "May I have the Z.P.M please?"
Teal'c stepped forward and handed the case to her. The doctor handed it to one of the many assistants running around. Moments later, the assistant shouted something.
"Ok General... you ready?"
"Not really."
She smiled. "Ok, all you have to do is-"
"Yeah, Carter filled me in on the way over."
She nodded and stepped away. "Just remember. The fate of our planet hangs on this."
"No pressure ehh Weir?" He said closing his eyes.
Å Earth's orbit Å
"My lord?"
Anubis looked up. "Fly to the planets southern pole."
"Yes my lord."
Å
Jack opened his eyes. "Did it work?"
Elizabeth shook her head.
"Damn it."
Å
The first prime stopped. "We are there."
"Fire."
Å
Screams filled the outpost as it began shaking.
"What's happening?" Rodney demanded.
"We're under fire!" Some one yelled.
Gunfire could be heard coming from the entrance.
"DANIEL, TEAL'C, WITH ME!" Carter yelled.
Å
Kino looked up. "The first squadron of Jaffa has been destroyed my lord."
Anubis growled. "Send more troops!"
"My lord-"
"DO AS I SAY!"
Å
"Reports coming in from all over the country! New York under fire, Berlin under fire!"
Elizabeth turned to face Jack. His eyes were closed. As she watched, a hole opened from the ground and what looked like globs of energy flew out.
"He did it," She whispered.
Yells could be heard coming from the entrance.
"ENEMY SHIPS RETREATING, NO, NO, NO, DESTROYED! A CHAIN OF YELLOW FIRE GRABBED IT AND JUST CRUSHED IT!"
Elizabeth smiled.
-
Carter watched as the familiar 'glowy chain thing' passed her. Cautiously making her way outside, she watched as one by one the ships were destroyed.
A scream was heard right behind her. She turned and saw Anubis standing there.
"FOOLS! DO YOU REALLY THINK YOU CAN STOP ME? I AM ANUBI-"
Several Captain's opened fire.
"Stop! It's just a hologram," Carter cried edging closer. She waved her hand through it. "See?"
"YOUR DAYS ARE NUM-" the hologram disappeared suddenly.
"All alien ships destroyed!"
Carter sank onto the ground. She needed a beer. Fast.
Å
Sam opened her eyes slowly. Her CO was standing over her and glaring mightily.
"Samantha Carter, you gave us quite the scare!"
'She blinked and focused on him. "I did?"
He pointed to her arm. She looked at it. It was wrapped in a light blue cast. "What happened?"
"You were shot. In the shoulder and you also broke your wrist. You passed out from the lack of blood. A"
"No... I mean the ships... what happened?"
He sighed and sat next to her. "They're gone."
"Gone?"
"Destroyed. All of 'em."
"What...about... New York? I heard... it was... under attack."
Jack looked grave. "Berlin, New York, Queensland and Lima were all attacked simultaneously. China got a pretty bad beating too."
"Why?"
"We don't know to be honest."
"How... many... dead?"
He swallowed hard. "They say in the thousands. Injured is in the tens of thousands. Property damage..." He stopped. "The President is releasing a statement today. On Saturday, we are ALL being flown into to talk to the press."
"Oh no."
He laughed. "My reaction exactly."
She licked her lips. "Where's Daniel? Teal'c?"
"I sent them away."
"Why?"
"Because... I think it's about time we had a talk."
Honestly... how do you DESCRIBE the Ancient weapon? (sigh)
Muhahaha, the fic is drawing to the end. It's really funny because this is not the way it was suppose to go... there was no Mobeius, Sam 'stayed dead' for a lot longer but...
I'm babbling.
Anyways, hope you liked it (or that it was at least tolerable)
Forgive me for not making any sense and...
PLEASE review!
