Note: Harmony with a huge gun is inspired by one of the "Dark Matter" promo pictures. If you want to see what it looks like you should go check it out.

Update! - I finished the prequel for this story! (or started a prequel. It's finished to me but if people tell me to continue that then I guess I have no choice haha!)
It's called "Love & Harmony" if your interested. Anyway enough about that. Back to THIS story!

It had been three days since the Genii forces had infiltrated Atlantis. Sam wasn't exactly sure how they did it. She was asleep at the time, like most of the Atlantis personnel. Some people swore they had beamed in, other's said they appeared out of thin air like they had used cloaking devices. Sam herself believed the theory that suggested the gate technician just fell asleep at the job and hadn't closed the gate shield iris. It was the most logical theory.
You just just can't rely or trust anyone with the gate unless it's Walter or Chuck. Sam thought to herself slightly bitter as she stared at the man with a gun in her face. The Genii had brought a small army and was bringing more and more soldiers in all the time.
While the Atlantian's had slept they took over all the weapon lockers. Then once that was done they started putting guards on all the main rooms. The Genii took the time to go through medical records and find which of us had the ATA gene. Then they shoved people from there beds, packing the non ATA gene carriers into the holding cells of Atlantis. Those that did have the gene where kept with the bulk of the Genii army so that they would be used so the Genii could use the technology.

Sam was in the control room, along with a few gate technicians. The Stargate had been active in and out during much of the three days. Soldiers coming and going with Atlantian supplies they where stealing. So when the gate opened once more no one bothered to put up the shield. None of the Genii had made G.D.O's yet so conformation wasn't needed. There was plenty of Genii around anyway, so they had the place secured from any new alien arrival.. Or so they thought.

Sam had been used to the gate now opening for more of their doom to show up, but what caught her attention was a computer screen flicker. Sam's eyes shot up and looked at it. No one else had noticed it. It WAS a G.D.O?! Sam squinted from her position too see, not wanting to go up to the console and alert the Genii to it. She swore it said McKay's 2nd IDC.
McKay's 2nd IDC? Sam pondered. What? That doesn't make any - Her thought was cut off by the strange appearance of the arrival.

A short girl, walked through the gate. She had brown hair, pale creamy skin and wore a red velvet long coat. A gold crown adorned her head, with various gold bracelets. A glowing pendant necklace. A black, striped diamond sequenced, long silk shirt, with a gold belt around it. Black shorts also with a gold belt. High laced, imposing, black combat boots that looked close to Atlantis military boots but had high heeled soles to make the short girl taller, but even they couldn't help her height.

If she was that short with them on who knew how short she was with them off. Sam wondered. But what stuck out most was the ridiculously large machine gun she was carrying. It was a lot bigger then she was. Sam continued to study the girl as the girl took in her surroundings. The Genii where too busy trying to learn form the technicians on what the consoles meant until an army appeared through the gate behind the girl. They looked like medieval knights in shinning armour but without swords. Some carried wraith weapons and some carried guns. Some even had advanced looking crossbows. Some of their armours where replaced by modernized protection as well.

A Genii spotted them and yelled grabbing his gun while they others noticed and followed suit but they where too slow on the draw as the other army already had their weapons out. Rapid shots of gun fire and sounds of stunner's rang out. The Genii shot with their pistols as they went down but where no match for the large assortment of odd weapons against them. The loudest and most lethal of all, was the girl shooting her machine gun. The bullets fast rapid and streaming with no stop.

Sam and the defenceless technicians took cover under the consoles. Glass could be head shattering and sounds of yelps of those surely to be dead soon. They waited till until the gun fire quieted. Then all that could be heard was the sounds of heavy foot steps of the army and the commands of a girls loud voice. Sam peaked her head over the console to look.

"FIND AND KILL ALL THOSE GENII TRATORS! FIND AND BRING ME THE LEADER! I WILL HAVE HIS HEAD!" The girl screamed the orders to the grown men around her. "And find me our King! Make sure he is safe!" They did as commanded, filling out the room.

The girl looked around and caught the eyes of Sam and the cowering Technicians. She pointed her gun at them. "Rise cowards!" She demanded. Eyes dark and annoyed. They rose slowly, hands up to show they where unarmed.
Great. Sam thought sarcastically. One ruler to the next. Sam could laugh. Maybe Cameron was right. Fate just didn't seem to want HER in charge of Atlantis.
The girl looked over their uniforms, taking note the Atlantian patch symbols and lowered her weapon. Sam decided it was best to try to get on good terms now.
Sam gave her always calm diplomatic smile in the face of uncertain danger.
"Hello. My name is Sam. Thanks for the rescue.. And you are?"
Her eyes shot up into Sam's eyes. Her face firm. "I am Queen Harmony of Larris. Do you know where my Husband is, peasant?"
Sam frowned. Just how old was she? And who was she calling a peasant?
"Who - Who's your husband?" A technician asked nervously, still arms raised even though the gun wasn't pointed at them any more. "King Rodney of Larris." Harmony replied. Sam's eyes widened. She had to be referring to another Rodney right?
"Which Rodney?" Sam asked. Harmony shot her a glare.
"Don't play stupid peasant. Doctor Rodney McKay. I know he is a prominent and important member of this expedition. Everyone should know him." Harmony scolded.
Sam flinched. She was rarely if ever called stupid and at this statement she felt at a loss for words. Was this kid serious?

Harmony's aggravation was clear at the silence and blank faced responses.
Surely Rodney's people where quiet dumb after all. No wonder he felt the city needed him. It would have surely crumbled in the hands of these half brained lower class morons without his intervention. Rodney was such a good and caring man to put up with these court jesters. Harmony thought to herself.
Suddenly the awkward silence was broken when a Guard returned out of breath. "We found him your highness. He is well."
Harmony went to the guard happy for some good news. "Good! Where is he?
"Some important lab, your highness."
"Take me to him!"

Sam ordered the technicians to do what they could now that they had control once again of the gate room.
She then followed the little Queen too see what was going on.
