I don't own stargate. Thanks to all the reviews I've had so far. Another mistake. This is not at the beginning of season 9. It is after the ori plague, after Vala is gone.
Here goes nothing.
"Thor should be here any minute," General Landry said. SG1 was sitting in the briefing room. They had finally contacted the Asgard about the mysterious teens. Thor himself was coming to attempt to identify them. They had been waiting for only a few minutes when Thor materialized in the room.
"Hello Thor," Sam said.
"Greetings to all of you." Thor said. " I am curious about what you have told me. You say that these children suddenly changed before vanishing through a solid floor?"
"Indeed. One claimed to have read our minds while another grew wings. They seemed to be familiar with different races in the galaxy." Teal'c's speech was short and to the point.
"To elaborate," Daniel said, "They knew about the Jaffa and the Asgard. To quote what they said, 'Check with the Asgard about the Star-born. They of all races should remember.' She also said ' Give my regards to Thor.'"
"The Star-born?" While Thor's face showed no emotion, his voice portrayed an interesting mix of surprise and relief. SG1 looked at him for his answer. After a moment's pause he said, "I know of the Star-born. They were a powerful race many centuries ago. They lived for thousands of years. They were contemporaries of the Ancients and the Asgard. They vanished about two thousand years ago. Well, vanished might be the wrong word. I know only one at this time. While I believe that none who know of the Star-born would dare to claim that heritage unrightfully, he would be the best to tell you."
SG1 sat for a moment, thinking. Sam was wondering how the group had passed through the floor. Daniel was wondering how the Star-born had disappeared. Mitchell was wondering why no one had mentioned these people before. Teal'c was wondering where they had gone. Finally, General Landry spoke up, "Is there any way that we could meet this person?"
"I am… unsure. It is almost impossible to contact Prince Gavan when he is not on the world Csilla. When he is not there he moves constantly to protect himself. My ship can attempt the contact, however." With that, Thor punched in a command on his 'chair'. Then there came a voice from a hidden speaker in the chair.
"Commander Thor?" The voice was decidedly Asgard.
"Yes. Please attempt to contact the Star-born Prince Gavan. I believe he is on Csilla."
"One moment."
There was silence for a short time before a rich, masculine voice was heard through the speaker. "Hello Thor. It's been a very long time."
Thor answered the voice, "Hello Prince Gavan. Were you told why an attempt was made to contact you?"
The voice took on a curious tone. "I was not. Is something wrong?" The voice did not change to worry.
"There is no trouble. I am on the planet Earth with a select few of its inhabitants. They seem to have seen a young woman and her compatriots that claim to be Star-born."
The voice changed dramatically in answer. "What? Never mind. I'll be there in a second." The voice cut out, leaving the room in stunned silence. Suddenly a whirlwind of silver light formed on the far side of the long table.
General Landry began to call to those outside when Thor said, "This is only the Prince. He means no harm here." As Thor finished speaking the 'winds' settled, revealing a man who looked to be about 20 years old. His hair was silver, set above crystal blue eyes. He was of average human height and wore flowing robes of azure and silver silk. A pendant hanging from his neck was a golden crystal bird coming to land. He seemed totally human as long as you overlooked the small gold horn than sat nestled right above his hairline. Thor said, "This is Prince Gavan, of the Star-born. Prince, this is General Landry and-"
A hand held up by Prince Gavan ended Thor's introductions. "How many times have I told you to drop the title. It's very great to be prince of a family of at most 5, counting my cousins. I do happen to know who they are by the way. Let me see." He looked at each member of SG-1 in turn. "Dr. Daniel Jackson, linguist and archeologist, figured out how to work the stargates for earth, has died several times. Oma has had only nice things to say about you. Lieutenant Colonel Samantha Carter, astrophysicist, has been a Tok'ra host, constructed a working naquadah generator for earth, generally considered a genius. Colonel Mitchell, new to SG-1, well respected. Teal'c, of the Jaffa, rebelled in order to attempt to gain freedom for all Jaffa, has done many heroic deeds to further the Jaffa cause. I believe I have covered everyone." The smile on his lips was full of good humor.
The entire room, minus Thor, was staring at him. His smile increased just a trifle. Finally Daniel said, " How did you know all of that? And how do you know Oma?"
"As I'm sure Thor mentioned, my people are contemporaries of those you call the Ancients. We generally converse regularly because my people are limited by where we can go. And before you ask, the Ancients have no qualms about giving us a hand because we are not lower on the Ascension ladder, as it were."
Carter finally shook off her shock and said, " To get back to the original topic of this conversation, can you tell us who these teens might be?"
"I know already because I can sense her presence on this world. You encountered my older sister and her guards. When our world was conquered, my sister, her guards, and myself were thrown, by our mother, into the time space continuum. We were there for a short time before I was separated and drawn to Csilla, which is a place that protects me from my enemy. I only knew that my sister was alive and relatively unharmed. She flits from life to live, never staying in one place for more that one lifespan of that world's people. I must remind you that our people live to be many thousands of years old and never die, only Ascend. Now that I have this much knowledge of her whereabouts, I can be reunited with her."
There was silence in the briefing room.
"So these teens pose no threat to us?" Landry was still worried about that.
Thor answered, "No. The Star-born were and are great protectors. They have a strict honor code. Besides, they will not stay here long. It is not safe for them."
"Why is it not safe?" Teal'c asked.
"My sister is hunted," Gavan said. "Our enemy wants her, lusts after her, and not just for her power. He will stop at nothing to find her. Sally's mother, once the guardian of time, prophesied this when my sister was born. He will find her one day, and all the power in the universe will not stop him."
a/n. How'd you like it. I'm trying to get out chapters but I'm into the last two weeks of school, aka hectic panic time.
