AN: To all my reviewers thanks for continuing to review my chapters. I decided to post chapter four a week early because next weekend I am moving across state and probably wont be able to post anything next week.

Break

"Chief Harriman sir," Walter said, "you're needed at the SGC immediately sir."

"What's up," I asked knowing it had to be something big for them to be calling me instead of normal off duty SGC personnel.

"I think Dr. Jackson could explain it better Sir," Walter said and a second later Daniel Jackson spoke through the phone, "Lt. Colonel 10 minutes ago we picked up a Wraith hive ship entering the solar system."

"WHAT!" I yelled in surprise

"We've confirmed it they'll be in orbit in half an hour. Where are you," he asked

"We are in London," I answered looking up to find the four teens looking at me strangely, "how could they have gotten here? Have you tried to contact Dr. Weir? They shouldn't have been able to get here from Pegasus without us seeing them sooner."

"We contacted Dr. Weir and everyone there is still in one piece they haven't even been attacked. We are not sure how they found their way here. We are looking into it," Daniel said

"Well that's one good thing," I sighed rubbing the bridge of my nose.

"Stay there we'll send for you when we can," Daniel said

"Will do," I said, "good luck."

"The same to you and Rodney," he said hanging up

"Rodney you got the same message," I said when we hung up looking over at my love to see him shaking slightly looking a bit green around the gills.

"Yeah, that was Sam, we only have 30 minutes…we have to get out of here," he said

"I agree," I responded turning to face my brother and his friends, "Harry, Ron, Draco, Hermione the four of you need to come with us and not ask questions until we get to a safe place…it's a life or death situation."

"Okay," all of them said probably understanding that it is something urgent. Which makes sense since Harry has been in a lot of life and death situations due to Voldemort and with Draco, Ron, and Hermione being his friends they probably have been as well.

"Come on let's go," I said standing up

I headed to the bar and paid for our drinks and then ushered everyone outside. Once in the alley we headed straight out through the Leaky Cauldron. In muggle London I hailed a cab.

All six of us piled in and I gave the driver the address to our hotel. He headed there as fast as he was able due to traffic.

When we got there I paid him the tab as fast as I could and headed inside. I headed straight past the front desk and passed by the elevator before heading up the stairs at a run. Rodney matched my pace as we ran for our room the four teens staying close behind us.

I burst into the room going straight to my bag. I threw it on to the bed and ripped the zipper open. Digging into the bottom of the bag I pulled out two military issue 9mm Beretta's and a few extra clips plus two zats. Rodney did the same with his bag pulling out two zats and two 9mm Beretta's. I looked up to find the teens starring at us in interest.

"Get in here and close the door," I ordered and the four of them followed it.

It seemed as soon as Harry had closed the door behind them there was an explosion of blue light outside and Hermione screamed. Rodney ran over to the window and looked out.

"John we've got darts incoming," Rodney yelled over the noise coming up from the streets.

"This isn't totally not what I wanted to do today," I said to myself running a hand through my hair. I turned to Harry, Hermione, Ron, and Draco, "you guys have your wands right," I received four nods in answer, "okay here take these."

I threw a zat to Harry and Draco while Rodney threw one to Ron and one to Hermione.

"To fire squeeze and shoot," Rodney explained showing them, "one shot hurts, two kills, three disintegrates. Try to shoot these guys twice and don't let them get within arms reach of you or you will die."

"What are they," Harry asked above the explosions outside fear lacing his words

"They are called the Wraith, they are like the Dementor's except for when they attack they take your life essence until you die," I answered, "and there's no cold or feelings of dread that precede them."

Looking out the window I saw the first wave of troops walking through the street below us. I turned to Rodney and just watched him for a minute. I really hadn't expected them to take to the streets this fast. Usually they tended to use darts and orbital assaults until there was a lot of damage and then the troops came in to feed on what ever was left.

Rodney's sitting on the bed with his gun in his hand just staring into the space in front of him. Even though it doesn't look like it I think he's probably going over something to keep himself calm. Hermione joined me at the window a moment later pulling me from my thoughts and looked down.

"Merlin their terrifying," she gasped

"Yeah," I said not looking at her

"You love him don't you," she asked following my gaze

"Very much, he's my life," I answered smiling at her

"That's good," she said

"You and the boys should all say your good lucks now…because we can only last as long as we can fight, run or hide from them," I told her

She nodded and headed over to Ron; she said some thing to him that caused him to turn red for a moment before he looked up at her. He pulled her to sit on the bed and into a hug before kissing her. I turned to find Rodney watching Draco and Harry sitting side by side on the other bed near the far wall of the room. They are talking quietly their arms wrapped around each other.

I smiled watching them for a moment happy to see my brother is happy before heading over to Rodney and sat down beside him. He looked up at me and I could see the fear in his eyes, the same fear I see every time the Wraith show up. I pulled him into a hug and just held him close speaking into his ear.

"Mer it's going to be okay," I said quietly hoping that I was correct

"Hopefully the SGC will shoot the hive down and then military troops around the world can take out the Wraith," Rodney said, "though after this the American Government may have no choice but to reveal the whole program unless they can come up with a really good cover story this time."

"We'll see it when the hive blows right," I questioned

"Absolutely," he answered

"Good when it blows you and I will need to get out of here and into the streets, try and take out as many of them as we can before they kill a whole lot of people," I told him, "we might need to even before it blows."

"I know," Rodney said quietly

"I love you Mer," I said

"I love you to John," he returned
