A/N: Update! I actually did it! Sorry, this was supposed to be finished and up a week ago but things came up and I've had Doctor Who/Torchwood on the brain from lack of watching Atlantis. Sorry its so short. But I just felt the urge to get it out for you to read.

Chapter 4

John starred in horror at his team mates staring at him with an intervention in mind.

"Hey guys! I would love to talk but I just remembered I gotta go!" He said before laughing nervously and raising his hand to the sensor to make the door open and quickly slipped out before they could say anything.

The group sitting at the table simply sat there in shock as a startled Carson was the first to speak.

"Did the major just run away...?"

"I believe so, Carson..." Dr. Weir slowly got up.

"Well, there you have if. Proof that that idiot went and did something stupid, it's not in his nature to avoid us." The group nodded, Mckay had a point. Sighing, Dr. Weir started to pace, gently tapping a finger to her lip in thought.

"Mckay?"

"Yes."

"I need you to come with me to the control room to search the monitors for the Major. I hate spying on him bt something is wrong and I'm worried he could get hurt." She stopped and turned to the rest of the group, "Teyla, take Carson and Ford to the Major's room and see if he's there, if he's not, then check his room and see if he left a log book around." The two groups nodded and headed to their areas.

~S~G~A~

It was abut ten minutes later that they got to their desinated locations. Teyla knocked gently on the major's door and called out to him. The group of three waited a good three minutes with no answer before Ford voice their thoughts.

"I don't think the major's there, should we just go in."

"Yes." Teyla raised her hand to the sensor to make the door open and they stepped inside, each spreading out to different parts of the room to look for a log or journal.

"Did you guys find anything...?" DR. Weir's voice cackled through their coms as they continued their work.

"Not yet, Doctor Weir. Ah'm not sure if'n we'll find anythin' 'ere..."

"Oh, I wouldn't be so sure, Doc. Look what I found." Ford said with a laugh as he pulled a gown made of a white and lavender silk-like material out of a drawer near Sheppard's bed, "Either the major's got a lady friend here in Atlantis or there's something kinky he's not telling us...!" His bad humor was met by a glare from Carson and a confused look from Teyla, who hadn't quite got what he was suggesting.

"Lt. Ford, Ah donneh think you should be sayin' somethin' so accusing about the major without proof. It's not polite, laddy..."

"Sorry, Doc..."

"I don't understand what the leiutenant means.."

"Donneh worry about it, lassy, just forget if ever 'appened..."

"Beckett, what did Ford find?"

"Jus' a strange silk gown, Dr. Mykay..."

"Oh, well, now that is weird."

"Carson, did you find anything other than the gown?"

"Nay, Dr. Weir... Nary a clue about the major's recent behavior.."

"Okay, thank you, you three."

"Elizabeth, I found the major in one of the store rooms."

"Good job, Rodney... Carson, you and the others head up here to the control room."

"Aye, ma'am."

~S~G~A~

John slipped into a storage room, somewhere he hoped it was safe to talk to Zally without anyone hearing the conversation.

"Pregnant!"

"Yes."

"But how? What happened!"

"From what I can tell, that is the whole reason why our people made the rule where genders could not enter each other."

"What're ya talking about, Zally?

"It would seem that upon the heightened hormones you experienced earlier mixed strangely with my liquid body that was passing through your organs, trying to get in a more comfortable position for both of us. It resulted in my body absorbing some of the reproductive fluid that your male body produces; making me pregnant. We're very easy to impregnate…" She told him with a slight nervous laugh at the end.

"But that's not possible! You're not human, we shouldn't be compatible!"

"Actually, my species' genetic code has the ability to change just enough to reproduce with any species….."

"That's kinda disturbing don't ya think?"

"You don't know the half of it."

"So what do we do now? I'm harboring a wounded alien in my gut that I just happened to impregnate by accident!"

"Actually, I haven't been entirely honest with you…"

"What do you mean?"

"I'm actually a princess from the planet and I was on the run from the army that's trying to overthrow my parents when I found you."

"So, I'm actually harboring a fugitive, wounded alien princess that is now pregnant with my child… That's just great….!"

~S~G~A~

Everyone in the control room simply stared in shock at each other with mouths hanging open.

"We need to get to John and quick!"
