Rest and Relaxation
By: Honolulu
The first thing that immediately caught Ronon's attention as they entered was how the small village looked similar to Sateda. Of course, it was nowhere near advance as Sateda once was when he last saw it but it was close. Ronon's eyes widened at the sites before him, male and female villagers gawked at the team but he looked at how the people wore familiar Satedan clothing.
"Kaila!" Rodney had to stop walking before he rammed into Ronon's back. Ronon moved to take a step forward when a marine moved in front of him, P90 raised. "Get out of my way." Ronon demanded.
"What's going on here?" Sheppard asked, confused by Ronon's actions. He looked to see what he was looking at. In a dark purple dress with sandals stood a girl with dark auburn hair who could be no older than 15. In her hands held a basket with fruits and strapped to her back was a baby. She conversed with an older man about his produce.
"Tell them to move." He told Lorne. Lorne approached him with a wary expression.
"I can't do that, I'm sorry. I know what you must be thinking b-"
"So it is her?" He cut him off.
"Yes, b-"
"KAILA!" He shouted. The girl looked up from her conversation, she looked around to see where the voice came from before seeing Ronon. She smiled and took a step forward before she realized who else was with him. She stopped and her smile faded a bit, she looked at Lorne with a question in her eyes, which he seemed to answer with a nod. Her smile returned in full force and raised one arm to wave at him. Ronon moved only to have the marine block him once more, Ronon grabbed him by his shirt ready to throw him out of his way when Lorne and the other marines intercepted by grabbing his arms. John and Teyla joined in the fray as Ronon punched a marine away from him.
"Ronon, stop." He froze when the girl known as Kaila spoke up. She stood merely a foot away from him now. "Go with Colonel Lorne, I promise that I shall see you soon." She moved past the marines who held him and lifted her hand and placed it upon his face. "Don't worry. We have much to discuss but you need to be elsewhere so I will wait. Now go." She graced him with another smile before she removed her hand and walked back to the elderly man she was talking to.
Ronon shoved off the remaining men who held him, his gaze never moved from Kaila when John approached him. "Who was that?" He asked, startled by Ronon's reaction to the girl and how tears brimmed his eyes.
"My sister." Ronon responded, his voice soft.
