Torega

chapter 3

The team made for the gate- they had lost Emmanuel in the woods. Teyla ran ahead, and John took up the rear. Ronon moved swiftly, even with the scietist strapped to his back, by now Rodney weighed next to nothing.

"I think we lost them."

"And Emmanuel." Teyla added.

"We couldn't have helped that."

"I know, he knew the risks." Ronon had untied Rodney infront of the DHD and he got to work.

"How's it coming?"

"Almost..." Rodney muttered, then he clicked the button and it crackled. "Ha! It works!"

"Alright. Now, we should dial the gate." John punched in the address and the wormhole engaged. He spoke into the makeshift radio. "This is John sheppard. Please lower the sheild."

"Does it work?" Ronon asked.

"Maybe they don't beleive that-" Rodney started.

"Who?" They all grinned widely. They couldn't contain their joy.

"Colonel John Sheppard. I'm here with Dr Rodney McKay..."

"Doctor...I forgot about that..."

"...la Emmagen."

"That's impossible."

"No, just improbable!" John took the radio back from Rodney and explained.

"We were taken to another planet, it's taken us a while to break out and gather enough resources to dial back."

"John!" Rodney yelled and he pointed to the moving plants.

"We gotta go... They're comin for us, we'll try to dial back later."

"What planet are you on?"

"Torega!" The gate cut him off and he swore before running after Teyla, Ronon and Rodney to find cover.

"They're alive?" Elizabeth spoke aloud. "Six years and... Get Lorne!"

"Mommy... What's going on? People keep laughing and shouting." The small girl rubbed her red sleepless eyes.

"A miracle." Elizabeth picked up her daughteras her husband ran into the room.

"sorry, Lizzie. She's quick. What's going on?"

"Elizabeth? You sent for me." Colonel Lorne said steping into the control room.

"We were just contacted by Colonel Sheppard's team."

"Ma'am?"

"It sounds crazy. But it was them."

"Should I ready a team?"

"No. We don't know where they are. We have to wait for them to dial back... if they can."

"And it was Definately them?"

"I heard John's voice."

"It's just that-"

"Un-schedualed offworld activation. Recieving a radio signal."

"Put it on speakers."

"Please lower the sheild, we are under heavy fire." this time the voice was Teyla's

"Do it. You're clear to come through."

"Ma'am?" the sheild lowered. They waited for a couple of minutes before a shot came into the gateroom, closely followed by Teyla Emmagen and John Sheppard.

"Wait! Ronon and Rodney are still out there!" Teyla shouted to them. Another minute went by before ronon came through with Rodneyin his arms.

"Raise the sheild!" The entire room watched the team as the gate shut off.

"Hi." Was all john said bfore dropping two blood covered rocks on the floor and dropping to his knees with releif.
