After repairing the extensive damage to Elizabeth's office, Havoc was out fitted with combat gear matching Sheppard's team. Havoc was reluctant to shed his old clothing, but Weir didn't want Havoc running around in his combat cloak. He donned the combat armor and vest of the SGA, hefting two P-90's and a 09.mm handgun at each side. Sheppard thought it was overkill, but Havoc just smiled and walked by. Ronon asked him why he just obeyed these newcomers and Weir openly. Havoc said that, even though they were not the true Atlantians, they had taken up the helm of the Ancients very well.

Weir and the scientists chose a planet that tested positive for reconnaissance and exploration. Havoc had a strange feeling about this planet. The name in the Ancient database meant "testament". He felt that there was something bad on that planet, but he had to go. That didn't mean that it was any less nerve-racking to the others, who thought a super soldier could not show fear.

Havoc stood in front of the Stargate with Sheppard's team. He looked over the P-90's and his outfit. He wore the same boots as before, since they were the only parts of the original costume he wished to keep. The bottoms were lined with a sheet of naquadah, making each boot 65 lbs. Havoc lifted his gaze up to the team on the stairway. Ronon caught his gaze and nodded, Sheppard was talking with Rodney, and Teyla was checking her gun and seemed to look away every time he gazed at her. Havoc shrugged and looked away.

The Gate sparked and groaned into life. The spinning lights began a clockwise journey, marking their cross-galactic path. The Gate groaned again and began a motion in the other direction. The first three chevrons lit up and locked in place. The Gate finished its dialing and flared. Watery event-horizon rushed out of the Stargate and rushed to the open floor. Havoc's eyes reflected the blueish-silvery light of the Gate.

Havoc walked towards the worm-hole. The team walked up behind him. Teyla heard something. She glanced at Havoc's back. With every footstep, a metallic sound came from his legs, like a machine straining with double capacity. Sheppard noted this too. Havoc's leg muscles were straining not to run. Havoc turned to look at them. Teyla blushed and Sheppard looked embarrassed. Havoc smiled.

"What's wrong?" He asked. Sheppard shook his head and walked to the Gate. Havoc stepped forward, and stopped. His eyes grew distant. He listened to something. Teyla looked up at him.

"What is wrong?" She asked. Havoc looked around the area.

"I thought I heard… never mind…" He said as he stepped into the wormhole.


They emerged from the Gate into pitch darkness. Sheppard took two steps before he tripped over the hidden MALP. John swore.

"Night vision goggles on. Silence." Sheppard said. The Gate shut down and plunged the team into inky darkness. The others slipped on the green-lenses. They looked over at Havoc. He stood with his eyes closed, his hands clenched in fists. His eyes flashed open and flashed a greenish tint.

"Ego indaeo falatus!" He yelled. The team winced and a warm breeze swept up the hill they were on and Havoc's eyes changed back. He looked at them, tapping the side of his head.

"Night vision. It'll last for three hours." Havoc said. The team nodded and started out.

The area was a very, densely wooded area with blackened trees throwing awkward shadows on the ground. Underbrush and logs lay across the ground. The tree cover protected the ground from any light above. Havoc stepped forward of the group, guns drawn. The team lay behind them. As they walked further, the trees thinned, revealing a night sky and two moons shining silver light. There was no wind or signs of animal life. The land had a hostile feel to it. Soon, the ground was bare and the trees were thinned out enough to see the distance.

Havoc and the team turned to the sky. They froze. Sheppard tore off his goggles.

"What the hell is that?" He said.

A small ball of light descended from the stars and fell to the ground. It sat there pulsating for a full minute. It dimmed and stared to disappear. Rodney stepped forward. A twig snapped. Havoc hissed.

The ball of light rose from the ground and started towards them, moving right and left through the trees. Havoc's blood ran cold. Time froze as lines of information crossed his vision and his brain's old pathways cleared up a bit. Havoc blinked and he suddenly knew what the ball was, and why this planet was called "testament".

Havoc swore and hefted the guns up. The P-90's rattled and spurted bullets out. A tree exploded into shrapnel. The ball moved faster. Rodney shot at it and so did the others. The light became larger now. Havoc pushed the others back.

"GET OUT OF HERE, NOW!" Havoc yelled.

The ball of light slammed into him and lifted him off his feet. Havoc flew past the team and yelled as he went straight through an old tree, and then another, and then another. Ten trees and one hundred yards later, Havoc hit the ground. He hopped up onto his feet. He was bleeding from the mouth and scalp, his back pummeled with bits of wood splinters poking out. He looked around. The ball of light was gone. Something impacted his back. He flew back to the team, gouging a furrow in the dirt. He groaned as he eased out of the dirt. Teyla stood next to him. Her hand grazed his wounds and Havoc snarled.

"Are you alright?" She asked, worried. Havoc shook his head and stood up. Rodney, Ronon, and John were standing around him. The force was gone. Or did it want to throw him around all day? John looked around.

"What the hell was that?"

Havoc coughed. "We need… to leave…" He said, blood rolling off his lips. Teyla winced.

Havoc looked up and his pupils shrank. His eyes were wide and his teeth clenched. Everyone looked up. The second moon was replaced by a giant eye, one pupil aimed down at them.

"What the hell is this god-damned place?" Sheppard yelled. Havoc shuddered.

"Testament of the Damned. This is the land of the evil Ascended. The sick and twisted…" He said, trying to move. The eyes glared down at them and the ground flashed a blinding light. The team opened their eyes, and found themselves on a gigantic plain, shrouded in the night. The tree line was a mile away, the ocean stretched to the east. The eye was gone.

Havoc stood in the middle of the group. He turned to the left, and froze. In front of him stood a child.

The child was short, about nine years old. His skin was pale white, and his clothing was a thin grey cloak clinging to his shoulders. The child's hair was black, dreadlocks falling over his face. His eyes were black beetle eyes, no pupils of whites. Just bottomless pits. Havoc flinched and tried to pull a gun. They weren't there. He turned to the team. It was like time had stopped. They were frozen in place. The water in the distance and the air had stopped. The child spoke in a nearly hidden whisper.

"…your time is done…"

Havoc felt something spin in his vest. He pulled out the tiny Stargate necklace slash time disruptor. The chevrons were glowing and the inner ring was spinning. Havoc looked at the child. The child smiled.

"…the shadows will come for you…"

Havoc was flung into the sky and engulfed into a flash of light.


Havoc opened his eyes and found himself on an endless field. A bright sky held fluffy clouds rolling by past at impossible speeds. The echoes of birds could be heard. A small Stargate stood in front of him with a transparent event horizon. Havoc saw a reflection of himself on the other side. This copy, however, was the Shadow Havoc. The face had fangs and fragmented pupils, claws on his hands, and one hand crackled with electricity.

"How are things going? Life sucks for you too?" Shadow Havoc asked, a smile on his face.

"What is this place?"

Shadow Havoc shrugged and ran a hand on the inside of the Gate.

"Your mind and where Chaya sealed me behind this strange one sided Gate… How vexing… I just… can't…" He said, running a hand over the invisible wall in the rippling Stargate. Havoc nodded.

"I need some help…"

"Why?"

"Those freaks are playing with me. I don't have enough power. I need to borrow some of your own."

"True, I hate you… But I don't want my brethren to think my vessel's a push over. Very well. I give you some power and I'll stay behind this Gate..." Shadow Havoc said, extending an open hand. Havoc eyed it.

"How do I know you'll stay there…?" Havoc asked, extending a hand slowly.

"Fool! Even if I could destroy you and give you power, this Gate won't let me escape! No matter how much I wish…"

Havoc nodded and stuck a hand through the event horizon. Shadow and true owner shook hands and power flooded through the air. There was a bright flash of light and Havoc disappeared. Shadow Havoc sighed.

"Maybe he's not that bad after all…"
