The Briefing of Tactics
Bridge of Warrior in orbit of Earth
9th April 2004
16:00 hours
As the Warrior dropped out of hyperspace near the edge of sector 001 otherwise known as the Earth's solar system. Lt. Commander Ryan O'Connell ordered the Ensign Turner to pilot the ship at two-thirds impulse to orbit earth and he also ordered Lt. Commander Jefferson to cloak the ship till they approach orbit for security reasons. Commander Gamble asked Ensign Jonathan who is standing next to Jefferson to retrieve the guest from their quarters and escort them to the observation lounge on the bridge. Ensign Jonathan arrived at the guest quarters of Jake and Ariel on deck five and pressed the door chime of each cabin Major Jake and Major Ariel, he ask them "Would you like to follow me to the bridge we are just about to approach earth."
"Are we truly about to approach Earth?" asked Major Jake.
"Yes, we are and Commander Gamble has asked for your presence on the bridge", Jonathan replied to the major.
"Can you give us a minute to get into our uniforms and we will follow you to the bridge?" Ariel asked Jonathan.
"I will wait right here and then we will head to the bridge as soon as you are ready to proceed." Jonathan said to the majors.
It took the Majors just five minutes for them to get ready to head the bridge. Their gear was still in the shuttle bay in where they left them on the runabout. Jake, and Ariel agreed to follow Ensign Jonathan to the bridge, they headed down corridor 5 then turn the corner on to corridor 10 to the central turbolift that takes them to the Main Bridge. Once in the central turbolift it took only seconds to get to the bridge. As the turbolift arrived at the bridge the doors opened to a wide open bridge with room to walk and view the entire command area.
"Welcome to the bridge, Major Jake, and Major Ariel, you may take a seat in the two commander seats next to me as we approach earth and enjoy the view. Ensign Jonathan return to your station and see if you can raise the Captain." Commander Gamble insisted to the Majors who just exited the turbolift in front of Jonathan.
"Thank you commander for letting us join you on the bridge." Major Ariel said to the Commander.
"Commander, I cannot raise him just yet we are still a little ways away from the Earth yet. Can we move into direct orbit of Earth, sir?" Jonathan asked his commanding officer.
"Yes, Ensign Jonathan, Ensign Turner please put us in orbit near just outside of the radar range of sensors in this era please and protect us from being detected." Commander Gamble said as he addressed the crew on the bridge.
Once the Warrior was position in orbit of the Earth, Commander Gamble asked Steve try and open a secure communication channel to the captain as Steve manipulated a few buttons on the tactical panel in the communication section to ensure it was a secured channel to the captain and ensured that they could not be intercepted by anyone that could pick up the communication.
As the Hammond and the teams were debriefing, the view screen inside the briefing room switched to incoming transmission screen with Stargate Command Logo in the middle of the screen Captain Harris was wondering how Stargate Command got upgrades in the base and why it had a Starfleet look to the base. Hammond asked the desk communication officer to answer the incoming hail from the U.S.S. Warrior.
"Warrior to Captain Harris respond pleases, sir?" Commander Gamble said to his captain.
"Hello commander, what is the status of my ship?" Captain Harris asked his commander.
"Welcome to Earth, Commander Parker Gamble." General Hammond said to Harris's commander Gamble.
Gamble replied "We have the ship battle ready, all systems are prepped in case of any attacks on earth. And captain did you learn about why they were on that planet while you waiting for us to arrive at earth?"
Captain Harris replied, "Yes I did. Could you have Lt. Commander Ryan O'Connell beam down to Stargate Command I have some questions to ask him. Major Jake and Major Ariel how did you like the flight on my ship?"
"Your ship captain is an interesting design and very comfortable." Major Jake said to Captain Harris.
"We will be down there in a minute with Majors Jake and Ariel aboard my shuttle because I installed transport inhibitors around the gate room. Commander Gamble you have the bridge." O'Connell said to Commander Gamble.
Captain Harris heard that and said, "Actually Commander join them as well. Steve Jefferson you are in command in of the ship until the I return to the ship and your orders are to start deploying the crew to build the space station."
As the transmission ended the Commander Gamble, Lt. Commander O'Connell along with Majors Ariel and Jake headed to Ryan's shuttle in the main shuttlebay before he made his way to the shuttle bay he asked the on duty science officer to open a channel and ready to send data to his office at stargate command to compare data that he has and able to find a way to get home. They also need to have a security officer retrieve the gear of Major Jake and Major Ariel from the security locker on deck 10 when they had to surrendered just for safety reason on the ship. Once in the shuttlebay, Ryan made the final checks for departure to his hangar bay at Stargate Command. Major Jake and Major Ariel laid their packs on the seats in the rear of shuttle and proceed to the seats he said for them to sit in. Commander Gamble jumped into the seat next to where Ryan was sitting and got comfortable for departure.
Ryan tap the comm button on the panel in front and said, "U.S.S. Gemini to docking station request for departure?"
Dock Commander Travis said to Ryan, "Request granted and safe trip to Earth."
"Thank you dock commander", Ryan said to the dock commander.
In Ryan's shuttle it took only a few minutes to depart from the Warrior and fly undetected from radar using a cloaking device. As the shuttle approached Cheyenne Mountain shuttle landing zone Ryan had to enter a set of security codes to open the door to land in the hanger. Once the codes were entered the doors retracted and the Force field remained active for the shuttle to pass thru and arrive at the hanger pad inside Cheyenne Mountain. As the shuttle completed its landing procedures, Captain Harris and General Hammond were waiting for them to exit the shuttle.
As everyone exited the shuttle Captain Harris ask Lt. Commander Ryan to join him aboard Ryan's. "General the Lt Commander and I will be down to the briefing room in a few minutes and let my crew members know" the captain said to General Hammond.
Hammond replied, "Sure thing, Captain Harris."
As soon as everyone left the hangar bay, Captain Harris started to ask why the base was looking like Starfleet headquarters. Ryan started to elaborate to Captain Harris what went on and why he did what he did, "Well captain you see, I was about to head on my leave when I got sent back in time to 1999 and I was trying to stay low of the radar but I became stuck here and the only group I could trust was the Stargate Command sir, plus they need some upgrades for Earth's survival against their enemy which NORAD, SETI, NASA, could not detect beyond the the boundaries of sector 001 as we know it as."
Harris interrupted him, "But why did you violate the Prime Directive and the Temporal Prime Directive?"
Ryan responded, "Well there was not much else I could do, because I got picked up by Stargate Command as I entered low Earth orbit on a crash course towards Area 51, and thats is when team SG-1 was scrambled to wait for me to land. I kept searching for ways to get back up until Jefferson's wife crashed I did not know if you would be right behind them. I have not found a way back yet I am thinking we are going to be here for a few months or years until we are able to return to our reality and time."
"Why do you think that is the case Ryan?", asked Captain Harris.
Ryan responded, "That's what I have been working on, and the reason why I upgraded them with some of the technology so I find a way back. That's what Captain Carter and I have been trying to figure out when she is not out on missions with the frontline team, but we have had no luck or break thru yet to get us home. The only thing I was waiting for was the probe I sent from this timeline thru the tear and hoped that it would be picked up by the ship before you entered. Now Captain I must download the data to find us a way home oh and by the way have everyone aboard be issued a P-90 and a pistol alongside with standard issue phasers and or phaser rifles just do it. Shall we head down to the briefing room now?"
Captain Harris is furious at Ryan but since they cannot contact Starfleet command he decided and said, "Fine, Lt. Commander Ryan, I will not put this into the logs or in your records but since we are stuck in this time and this facility is willing to have us as part of their team and command we will follow the orders General Hammond and the President of the United States, do I make myself clear Ryan?"
Ryan answered the captain, "Yes, Captain. Oh I did forget one thing to install a transporter room the only working one is on my shuttle sir, due to the transport inhibitors in key rooms in the base but Asgard beam's are to bypass the inhibitors."
Captain Harris turned to Ryan and let him know, "I will have Lt. Commander Stacy O'Roke and her engineering team which was comprised of Lt. Ryan Thompson, Lt. George Tracy, Lt. Scott Jordan to work on installing transporter room."
Ryan then stated to the captain, "We may need to be built it above ground due to the inhibitors in the base underground. Do you think it is possible that we could have Doctor Marlene beam down for to check out somethings."
"Harris to Sickbay"
"Sickbay here, Captain" Dr. Marlene said as she answered her combadge from Captain Harris.
"Can you head to the Transporter and beam down to Stargate Command please?" He said to Marlene.
"I guess I can come down is there anything I need to bring with me and is there anything else I need to do, sir?" Marlene said to Harris over the combadge.
"Actually Dr. Marlene, just your self and a standard medical kit." Ryan said to Marlene.
"All right I am on the way to the transporter room now" Dr. Marlene said as she was walking across the corridor to beam down to Ryan's shuttle.
"Medical Transporter Room Dr. Marlene is ready to be beamed to your shuttle stand by" Transporter Chief Rosa said to Ryan.
"All right transporter chief, I am in position and you may transporter her now", Ryan said.
With in minutes Dr. Marlene arrived in the shuttle and Ryan welcomed the doctor the Stargate Command.
Harris, Ryan and Dr. Marlene started their walk to the briefing room Ryan said, "Captain we must stop by my lab so I can start running the tests." So they had to stop at Ryan's lab it was down and three doors left from their current location so he could get the data transferred from the probe he sent thru the rift and picked up by the Warrior's science team before the ship entered the rift.
Ryan said as he taped his com badge, "Ryan to Science Station Three"
"Science station three here", the current officer on duty sitting at that station.
"Can you start the data transfer? I am ready to receive the information in my lab from the probe.", said Ryan to science station three.
"Your data has started to transferred sir", the science officer said to Ryan.
When Ryan looked at the screen he knew it was going to be a while before the downloads will be done transferring to his terminal and data being sent back to the ship as well. So Ryan left the data downloading, and they finally proceed to the briefing room which was two floors down from his lab. Once Captain Harris, Lt. Commander Ryan and Dr. Marlene arrived General asked "Have a seat everyone and let me welcome all of you to Stargate Command, I am General Hammond, to my right is Colonel Jack O'Neill, next is Captain Samantha Carter Dr of astrophysics, next is Dr. Daniel Jackson doctor of archeology and linguistics last but not least is Teal'c. Captain Harris would you like to introduce yourself and your crew members who are here in the room?"
It was Captain Harris's turn to introduce his crew, "I am Captain William T. Harris of the Federation Starship Warrior, this my first officer Commander Parker Gamble, my Assistant Chief of Engineering Lt. Commander Stacy O'Roke and her engineering team which is comprised of Lt. Ryan Thompson, Lt. George Tracy, Lt. Scott Jordan, my Science Chief Brandon Bordeau and his team which is comprised for Lt. Sarah O'Brien, Lt. Richard Stark, Lt. Albert Thomas and Lt. Jg. Stephanie Perkins. This is my Chief Medical Officer is Dr Marlene, the only member of my crew not physically present is my Chief of security and tactical Lt. Commander Steve Jefferson, and I see you all ready know Lt. Commander Ryan O'Connell from Starfleet Headquarters' Utopia Planitia Ship Yard."
"Shall we get on with the briefing now, Dr. Jackson would you like to start?", O'Neill said because he is very impatient and wanted to go on a weekend relaxer. "Welcome all to Stargate Command, we recently been dealing with an issue with a very nasty Goa'uld system lord who is on the brink of attacking the Earth and thinks that there is a weapon strong enough to destroy him. We have been unable to locate this weapon or defense anywhere on Earth yet to date. Do you think its possible that your science teams could search the planet for anything that could look ancient start at the south pole that's where the second gate was found."
"We can give it a shot Dr. Jackson, my team and I could get on it right away" said Science Chief Brandon Bordeau looked at his team which is comprised for Lt. Sarah O'Brien, Lt. Richard Stark, Lt. Albert Thomas and Lt. Jg. Stephanie Perkins. "Maybe we can retrofit a few shuttles to have enhanced sensors and use the Warrior-A as the command post at the South Pole." said Lt. Sarah O'Brien to Brandon Bordeau.
"What do you think captain?" Brandon said looking at his captain.
Harris gave Bordeau a go ahead and said "Bordeau you have a go ahead and start the modifications on the three shuttles, let Steve know you are going to take command of the Warrior-A and move it into position over the south pole and begin your scans. Oh right to beam up to the ship you will have to use Ryan's shuttle till we build a transporter room." Carter jumped in the conversation "Lt. Commander Bordeau let me give you the coordinates to start your search at and the coordinates near McMurdo Station at 77.8500° S, 166.6667° E."
"Is that the location that you would like to start at Colonel Carter?" said Brandon. "Yes sir it where we want you to start at." Carter said.
"We will keep you in the loop colonel" said Brandon.
"What else would could we do for this command?" Captain Harris said to Hammond.
Hammond in returned said, "We could use a few more ships to defend earth, we only have one ship the X-302 Prometheus that is space worthy besides a small group of sixteen F-302s. The Goa'uld system lord may have a number of ships probably approaching Earth's solar system."
"Um Captain Harris, I could put Earth in a time dilation field via the Asgard core in CIC room." Ryan said but the Captain did not like that idea so he asked that option to be shelved unless it was really need and he let Ryan know it in front of everybody, "Okay let's this discuss other options besides a time dilation field. Anyways general we are more than willing to help you out at this time of need, We are looking at setting up ship yard in orbit of Mars."
"Captain how many crew members do you have that could train Air Force technicians to help build the stations and if we have to we can will barrow people from other U.S. military branches that are not actively deployed to duty.", asked General Hammond.
"We have 800 crew members aboard and supplies to build a single ship yard in shuttle bay 3 and cargo bay 2 and 3, do you guys have enough parts to build more ships we could help speed it up by combining teams to put the ships together. Does that work with you General?", Captain Harris replied to General Hammond.
General Hammond said to Captain Harris, "Captain Harris, let me get Joint Chiefs on the line to and see in the mean time deploy the ship yard where ever you need it to be placed." Then Hammond looked at Walter and said "Can you get the Joint Chiefs on the line?"
"Yes, General I am going to call them now for you, Sir" Walter said.
Captain Harris then continued to talk about the deployment for the station and ships, "We will deploy it in orbit of Mars exactly because of the minerals we are going to need, to build the ships. How many ship parts do you have ready for building from the contractors who work for the air force?"
"We have at least parts for a least three ships for right more will be ready by the end of the year", said General Hammond.
"We can round up teams to and get the crews into worker bees pods to pick up the parts and start putting together the ships with some modifications to the design to safeguard fighters, bridge and crew" said Captain Harris.
"What are you talking about Captain?" General Hammond and Colonel Carter asked Harris what he meant by that statement.
"The ship design we thought would be based on one our best ship model for fighters is the Akira line. It is designed with fighters in mind and it can hold up to approximately 50 of the F-302s in the hangar deck and the bridge design would be more roomy to move around on all decks and design to delivers right in to battle and allow for fast restock of weapons on the F-302s without dropping force fields in the shuttle bay. We also have an shell of a defiant that we can have built by tomorrow morning. It looks like we are going to need at least a third of military officers who are not deployed in combat to finish all the ships ahead of schedule."
"General Hammond I have the joint Chiefs on the line" Walter said to the Hammond as he head back to the control room. "Thank you, Walter." Hammond said.
"Good afternoon, Joint Chiefs", General Hammond said to the Joint Chiefs on the phone.
"Good afternoon, General Hammond what is going on their at Stargate Command and why have you contacted us today?" the Joint Chiefs said on the phone to General Hammond.
"Let me first ask that this call be not recorded into record and secured first, and then I will introduce you to Captain William T. Harris to you and then he can explain it to you better.", General Hammond said to the Joint Chiefs.
"Hello Joint Chiefs, my name is Captain William T. Harris as the General said, I would like to borrow one third of all military personnel to use to build ships for the defense of Earth."
Joint Chiefs, asked captain Harris, "Are you saying that you can ensure their safety and care?"
"I can, ensure their well being and safety we will assign two crew members of mine to teams of 20 United States Military officers for construction of ships, Security/Tactical will be trained to every on starfleet weapons, and the medics will be 15 Medical per one of my crew members.", Captain Harris said to the Joint Chiefs.
"We first must look and inspect the condition of where the officers are going to be taking part in just for our security reasons." Said one of the Joint Chiefs officers.
"I will arrange for my Commander to beam over to the Pentagon or the White House you pick for the meeting and then for the full tour?" Captain Harris asked to the Joint Chiefs.
"Lets make it for Monday at 0900 Hours, will that work for you Captain?", said the Joint Chiefs.
Captain Harris staid to the Joint Chiefs, "Actually Joint Chiefs we can do it right now it will not take long for me, General Hammond, and Commander Parker Gamble to be in Washington as soon as this briefing is over to get started right away."
"That will work for us and we will have the president ready to join us as well." The Joint Chiefs said to them over the phone.
"Oh one thing, we would like to see is that Vice President does not get informed of what is about to take place." O'Neill said as the call was still connected.
"Understood we will be at the White House with the President waiting for you within the hour, Sirs." The head Joint Chiefs officer said on the phone and then the call was ended with goodbyes.
After the phone call with the Joint Chiefs, and everyone in the room, Captain Harris looked at Stacey and said, "Lt. Commander Stacy O'Roke get your team and dig out the work bees and start piecing together the ships. I want the three ships and the shipyard ready by the end of the day monday."
She said to Harris, "We will get on it right away, Captain. How do you want the bridges to look?"
Captain Harris said to O'Roke, "Well make them like the Defiant class bridge, and the shuttle bays like the Akira shuttle bay with two extra standard F-302 bays connected to the weapons pod/rear hull beam."
"All right Captain, we have what we need to get started but we will need the work force by the end of the day tomorrow to get the vessel done." Lt. Commander O'Roke said to Captain Harris.
Captain Harris said to Lt. Commander O'Roke "Before you beam up can you first get a working transporter up on the surface then one you are finished then you can beam up."
Stacy said to Harris "We are requesting permission to depart so I can get that transporter up and working and then head up to the ship."
Harris said to O'Roke "You and your team are dismissed, Stacy."
Stacy and her team left for the ground floor of Stargate Command. So the meeting kept on going with Captain Harris, Commander Gamble, Commander O'Connell, SG-1 and General Hammond. Ryan got up and walked over to the wall and tapped a few buttons which retracted a solar system viewscreen and a special table top for the conference table which a looks like the operations table in the CIC room on the Warrior. Once the table top lowered into place the display turn on and lit up with the Warrior, Warrior-A and the shuttles, USAF Prometheus and the 16 F-302s for right now until the rest of the other ships are finished.
"Alright people here is what I am thinking, the Warrior's Stardrive Section will be deployed at the far side of Venus. The Prometheus will depart from it's bay on earth only at the cue from the President and Joint Chiefs. We are willing to install shields at the White House, Stargate Command, The Pentagon, and any other Federal Office, along with backup Communication to warn the public about a very bad meteor shower and get them into shielded facilities for their own safety. Any other suggestions?" Captain Harris said to the group.
"Well captain may I suggest a few more things Captain Harris?" Carter said to the captain.
"Go a head Colonel." Harris said to the Colonel.
"I was thinking I could help, Ryan finish his research, and would like to learn a lot from your crew on how you operate your ship and study its systems, sir?" Colonel Carter said to the Captain.
"Colonel Carter, I don't see why not it would be a good thing if you and Ryan worked together."
"Captain it would be nice if Carter and I worked together and we could finish the research of a way we could get home and during that time we can work deploying the grids to cover key installations." Ryan said to William.
"Well Carter and O'Connell, I want results by Monday morning by 0900 hours, do I make myself clear?" Harris said to Carter and O'Connell.
Both Carter and O'Connell said in unison "We understand Captain Harris."
Ryan then asked Harris, "Captain may I start up the Asgard core it could help us complete the calculations to return us home, and also help us make a big jump in building a stronger fleet faster."
"I am willing to help until O'Neill starts writing and speaking ancient once he does he might need my help." Carter said to the team in the Briefing room.
"While we have the Asgard Core on we could make use of it and use it to speed up building some more ships instead of the three ships and a defiant ship that is ready for building, we could make the fleet twice as big as the Goa'uld, what do you Captain Harris and General Hammond think?" Ryan said to Captain Harris and General Hammond.
"For right now O'Connell, just work on getting us home, if it does come to where we need it to enhance the fleet then use the core for that." Harris said to O'Connell.
It became late and SG-1 need a break for the weekend but before the weekend break they remembered that they promised a quick tour of the Warrior with the Joint Chiefs and The President. Harris and Hammond began to head to the transporter room on the ground floor. O'Connell, and Carter headed to Ryan's lab to begin the data transfer back to the Warrior's Stargate Operations Center's Computer Core which is a mark XX starfleet computer core, "Ryan to Warrior" Ryan said after he tap communicator on his uniform. A few seconds later he heard Jefferson's voice on the other end "Go ahead Ryan" Ryan said in return "I am initiating data transfer to the Stargate Operation Center onboard and I need you to accept it and route it into there." Jefferson replied with a firm "I am ready to receive the data stream now."
"Data stream initialized and beginning to transfer I will see you in a few minutes. Can you join me in the Main Shuttlebay when I arrive and can issue Colonel Carter a Communicator for use on the ship and a LCARS computer tablet?"
"I will can issue the communicator and a LCARS computer tablet when you arrive on the ship."
Ryan and Sam made there way to his shuttle while the Captain Harris, and General Hammond made it to the ground floor they found Stacy and her team just running the final test, Harris said to O'Roke "Are the transporter pads working? and can you lend me one of your team members for installing a communications array at the White House?"
"They are indeed Captain, I can lend you Lt. Ryan Thompson to head to the White House with you." Stacy said to Harris.
Harris replied to Stacy, "We need to be transported to the Oval Office in the White House then we will contact the Warrior from there, Stacy once we are in Washington D.C. you and your team can beam up to the ship just leave one of your team here to operate the transporter to receive General Hammond and Colonel Carter when they would like to beam back down" Captain Harris said to Stacy.
"Understood Captain. Lt. Scott Jordan you will remain here and run the transporter systems" Stacy said to Captain Harris.
As they beam into the Oval Office at the White House the secret service was not expecting a group of people that beamed into the Oval Office but the Joint Chiefs knew that General Hammond and Captain Harris said to be ready by 1800 when they showed up in front of the President and Joint Chiefs.
"Freeze right there!" one of the United States Secret Service officers said to General Hammond and Captain Harris as they re-materialized in the Oval Office. The Joint Chiefs along with Secretary of Defense said to the Secret Service agent "Stand Down agent, That is General Hammond of Stargate Command and Captain Harris of the U.S.S. Warrior and his ship is in orbit Earth and is about to move next to Mars for deployment of a shipyard and advanced fighters to help us."
Captain Harris said to the group "Is everyone ready to beam up to the Warrior for a tour and a reception in the ship's lounge?"
"Can you explain about your ship first and then we are ready to beam up to the ship?" President Henry Hayes said to Captain Harris.
"All Mr. President, I am Authorized to disclose some key things about the ship but not all of the operations that are going on the ship due to the nature of this paradox do I make myself clear?" Captain Harris said to Henry Hayes and the Joint Chiefs.
"Yes, Sir", the President Hayes said to Captain Harris.
Captain Harris turned to Thompson and said "As soon as we are aboard the ship I will have them beam down a communication array for you to install in the White House on the wall in front of the desk and the communication really systems at both ends as well as a third in the fountain."
"Thank you captain, and can you also beam down two techs with some equipments that can help me with this deployment." Thompson said to Harris.
"I will see to it Lt. Thompson." Harris said to his junior engineering technician.
Harris then tapped his communicator and said "Harris to Warrior, 8 people to beam up"
"Transporter Room Chief Julie O'hara, here Captain how many did you say sir for me to beam up?", said O'hara to her captain on the surface at the White House.
"I said 8, O'hara beam up the commander and the Joint Chiefs and then me and the President. Got it?" Harris said to his Transporter Chief.
"I got that Captain. Is everyone ready to beam up?" O'hara said to Harris.
"Yes" Harris said to O'hara.
The Joint Chiefs and the commander beamed up into Transporter Room 3. On board the Warrior in the Transporter room 3, She was in her dress white uniform waiting for the Joint Chiefs to beam aboard.
As she re-materialized the Joint Chiefs and the Commander, she motioned for the two junior officers to to be ready to escort detail for P.O.T.U.S. and Joint Chiefs. The Joint Chiefs arrived on the transporter pads in Transporter Room 3, O'Hara asked "Can every one step of the transporter pads so I can beam up P.O.T.U.S. and the Captain?".
Commander Gamble lead the way off the transporter pads and down to next to the Transporter Chief Julie O'Hara. "Go ahead O'hara, we are all of the transporter pads." Gamble said to O'hara.
"Captain, please stand by we are ready to beam you and President Hayes up now." Gamble said to Harris as O'Hara moved the controls to beam Harris and The President up to the ship. With in a second the President Hayes and Captain Harris re-materialized on the transporter pads in transporter room 3. O'Hara welcomed every aboard the ship "Welcome aboard the Federation Starship U.S.S. Warrior. Captain Harris you are need in the CIC room everyone else please follow the commander and these two escorts to sickbay for a medical check up then we can give you a tour is that ok with everyone?"
"Thank you O'Hara, has Stacey and her team arrived from Cheyenne Mountain yet? and beam Thompson three communication relay kits to install at the White House." Harris said to O'Hara. O'Hara turned to the captain "Actually O'Roke is transporting up as we speak, sir".
"Thank you, Chief." Harris said to his transporter chief.
"Would everyone follow the me to sickbay for our standard check of guest that come aboard." Gamble said to all the guest and they proceeded to sickbay for a standard medical check up. As they proceed to Sickbay Henry Hayes asked the first question of the group "How many people are on board the ship Commander?"
"Well Mr. President, we have over 1,600 but under 2,000 crew members on board with some families but not that many because this ships is a more of a tactical ship with battle subsystems build in to it's design." Gamble said to President Hayes.
"How big is this ship?" the General to the Air Force asked.
"Well General the ship is 463.73 meters wide, her length is 500 meters long and 195 meters tall, with 35 decks sir. Any other questions?" Gamble said to the group.
"I have one", said the Admiral of the Navy to the commander.
"What is the question?" Gamble said to the Admiral of the Navy.
"What are you guys doing here?", the Admiral of the Navy said to Gamble in the group.
"We don't know exactly that is something Lt. Commander Ryan O'Connell is working on."
Gemini approach to Warrior's Main Shuttlebay
Earth Orbit
9 April 2004
1630 Hours
Ryan's shuttle approached with him, Dr. Marlene and Colonel Carter to the main shuttlebay. As his shuttle came upon the dock doors he reached over to the comm system and radioed the dock commander on duty "Shuttle Gemini to shuttlebay dock control, requesting docking on the ship." "Shuttle craft Gemini this is the dock commander Kaitlyn Weaver, your request to dock is granted please proceed to the Main Shuttlebay, shuttle bays two and three are busy with unloading the workers bees and cargo bays one thru four are active for deployment of the shipyard wireframe to be put in orbit of Mars." Weaver said over the comm to O'Connell.
Ryan then tapped the comm panel and connected with Jefferson who was on the bridge "Jefferson can you meet meet me at the main shuttlebay?"
"I'm on my way there now with the things you asked me to bring", Jefferson to O'Connell.
It took moments for the shuttle to arrive in the main shuttlebay, as it came in for the approach to the ship Carter took a look out the port window and she was amazed at the build design of the ship it did not look as good as the Prometheus docked in its bay on earth. Carter turned to O'Connell and said "That is a fascinating ship, how big is it exactly?"
"Carter it is very big it has 35 decks with 3 separate bridges when the ship separates for battle mode and the Warrior-A docks into the Main Shuttlebay, and finally a Stargate Command CIC Room which is where we will be working in.", Ryan said to Sam. The shuttle finished landing in the shuttle bay, Ryan powered downed his shuttle and everyone left the shuttle and Lt. Steve Jefferson stood there with the gear Ryan had asked for him to bring to the shuttle bay "Oh Doctor Marlene, the captain and the guests are in sickbay waiting for you to check out before we let them roam the ship." Jefferson said to Dr. Marlene.
"Thank you Jefferson." Dr. Marlene said to Jefferson, she then said to Carter, "Colonel Carter you are safe to move about the ship."
Ryan and Sam made their way to the Stargate Operations Center on deck 6 in the forward hull center line. As they walked to the door Ryan tapped a few keys on the door panel to enter the room that was because of the security of the station and what was in there. The doors opened to reveal a large two floor room about the size of the levels 27 and level 28 of Stargate Command. They walked to the first set of computer counsel on the right wall that is where Ryan had to press a few keys to power up the room and turn on the onboard Asgard core. After the systems powered up he then proceeded with Carter to the room next to the panel that is where the Asgard Core was located. Once the Asgard Core turned on a holographic version of an Asgard appeared in front of Ryan and Sam. Sam jumped when the Asgard appeared it was of Thor loaded in front of them.
"Colonel Carter, what are you doing here?", Thor said to Carter.
"I was going to ask you the same thing Thor?", Carter replied to Thor.
"I guess this module was design to load me as soon as it sense you in the room.", Thor said to Carter.
"Thor can we use the this Asgard Core to build parts to get a full fleet before the end of tuesday morning?", Carter asked Thor.
"I can Colonel Carter, I already downloaded all the designs from the Starfleet computer's core and was wondering what ships the Lt. Commander Ryan would like to be build fast and working for defense." ,Thor said to both of them.
"Well Thor we need at least 10 Defiant class ships, 3 Nova Class ships, 9 Sovereign Class ships, 4 armored Intrepid Class vessels, and we need Delta Flyer shuttles for every ship other than the Defiant Class. Then we need some Klingon Bird of Preys without the defect on the cloaking systems.", Ryan said to Thor.
"I will get on it right away where do you want the parts put to to be ready to assemble from?", Thor asked Ryan where he would like the shells of each ship and facility to be deployed to be build from.
"Thor load them in to the shuttle bays 2 and 3 as well as the Main Cargo bay then the work bees will to them to the ship yard but the put Spacedock as priority one which is the Main Starbase we need to dock all the ships in to finish the building the ships in", Ryan said to Thor.
"Lt. Commander Ryan your parts will be ready for the spacedock to be assembled in the hour and Carter do these ships and vessel need Asgard systems or no?", Thor asked as we was priming the replicator system that the Asgards use to replicate the ships.
"Well both the Lt. Commander and I were thinking a mix of Asgard and Federation Technology.", Carter said to Thor.
"Thank you Thor". Ryan said to Thor.
"Your Welcome Colonel Carter and Lt. Commander Ryan" Thor said to them.
"Now Thor, the bigger issue we need to calculate and dealing with it is a rift and we are trying to figure out why and or how this rift opened up and there is a lot of data I collect from two probes I had at my disposal to test this issue and was wondering if you can use the two sets of data and correlate them to see if the rift has either expanded or closed or other changes if it was only is only one way or dual way or only targeting federation starships and pulling them thru the tears but I just don't know can you help?", Ryan said to Thor.
"I will start the calculations and see if you are right or not it should not take me that long to research it for you." Thor said to Ryan.
"Carter if you like to stay right here?, I am going to take a walk to the office across the hall to record and log my person entry into ships record" Ryan said to Sam.
"I don't mind at all and I will assist Thor with any help if he needs it." Sam said to Ryan.
Ryan walked over to the office inside Stargate Operations Command and Control Center as soon as he got into the office he tapped the log entry control panel button on the pad in front of him.
"Lt. Commander Ryan O'Connell's Log Stardate 20040409.25, Classified Entry. I am currently working on trying to find a way for the crew of the Warrior and I to return to our time but I think there is more than meets the eye here in this reality but I am uncertain of the reason why we were sent at two different times is not know yet. But from what I gathered from the data is that a super cosmic event might have caused this rift to open and sucked us in I have not checked to see if there are other Federation Starships that have been sucked through the tear in reality, time and space dimensions. At 1700 hours I will be conducting a test of the UFP communication channels and see if there are any ships in the range of the Warrior and the maximum range of subspace communication can reach. If a Federation Starship is detected and responds then I know that the rift has moved and sucked another starship in to this reality. We are going to have to get a crew of Starfleet officers from the Warrior and Deploy them at all Stargate Command Alternate bases off world to see if they are near those planets also, but to do so would require permission from General Hammond and Captain Harris to do this task. Carter thinks that if it is a one way portal then we may have a bigger problem then we can't be certain of the issues or the real ramifications of the tear in to the 24th Century. Thor thinks that someone tore a hole in between the realities but he can not figure out the original point of the tear. We are setting up a command post on the shipyard and starbase as soon as Stacey and her team finish them to monitor all the channels with a full team and not just the three of us in the Stargate Operations Center on the Warrior but I am also wondering why I put this equipment on this ship along with Admiral Hammond of Starfleet Headquarters, I don't remember any other ships in the fleet have a stargate nor a decked out room for it in any of the ships that I have access to unless there was a reason just for this ship and this ship only to have it then it must have to do with something that the Warrior and her Crew set up for it to happen in the future or this tear is more than what meets the eye. As of 1600 hours on the 9th of April 2004 no reports or any such anomalies have occurred. Computer, End the log entry."
Just as Ryan finished his log entry into the ships record Carter came in to the office and said "Ryan, Thor and I have something to show you and I don't think you are going to like it."
"What is it Carter?" Ryan said to Sam.
"Well, we detected three Federation starships and they are near one of our secondary sites and the other two ships are closer than you think is at Alpha Centauri." Carter said to O'Connell.
O'Connell reached for his communicator and pressed it "Captain Harris and Commander Gamble can you two join me in Stargate Operations Command and Control Center along with our guests please, we got some really interesting results."
It took minutes for them to arrive at the Stargate Operations Command and Control Center once at the door Ryan tapps the door open button on the panel in the office to let them all into the room.
"Welcome all to the Stargate Operations Command and Control Center, I am Lt. Commander Ryan O'Connell, the reason why I called everyone here is that we have detected three Federation starships near Alpha Centauri.", Ryan said to everyone in the room.
"Do you know which starships they are yet O'Connell?" Harris said looking at him.
Sam turn to Ryan and gave him a look and said, "I think we have an ID of the ships."
"Go a head Carter", Ryan said to Sam.
"Well Ryan, I need you, Harris, Gamble to come look at the display." Carter said to the three of them.
"Harris is that what I think it is, Sir?" Ryan said to Harris.
Harris turn to the guest can you folks wait out here in the main room for a minute me and my fellow officers need to look at this right away. We will get back to the tour in a minute."
As Ryan, Peter and William sat in the office there and looking at the star chart on the screen they soon realized the first ship that appeared on the screen was Luna Class, Defiant Class ship and an Nova Class ship. "Ryan, Can you get on the comms and send them a message to report to Earth using warp and arrive from the opposite side of the solar system.", William said to to Ryan who already send the message by the time the captain was finished with his statement. "Message sent sir. Now lets join and finish this quick tour so we can get the help to build up the fleet faster and ready for battle." Ryan said to William and Parker.
As the three of them rejoined the group outside the office they went over some final details the President and the Joint Chiefs approved the plans and they will have the workers ready by 1800 hours once they returned to Earth along with them Colonel Carter thought she need a rest for the weekend and head back to the SGC on Monday. William along with his first officer and the Lt. Commander walked the dignitaries to the transporter room to beam them down to the surface so they can get the people the Warrior need help to build the ships. As the dignitaries left is when the comms replies came back from the two of the starships "Captain Harris we are receiving a communication from two of the ships", said the transporter chief. "Open the channel to the two ships, chief", Harris said in the transporter room. On screen appeared Captain William T. Riker of the Titian, and Captain LaForge of the Challenger, "Captain Riker and Captain LaForge, welcome to 2004, we are in need of the three ships to head to Earth at maximum warp and stay at Red Alert, Earth is under immediate danger and can I ask where your ships were at when you appeared on our sensors," Harris said to Riker and LaForge. Riker replied with "Well Harris, LaForge and my ship were enroute to Deep Space Nine close enough to the location your ship disappeared when we found ourselves in just outside of Alpha Centauri and then your ship show up on the sensors."
"Do you know the other ship in your formation?" Harris asked.
"I think it was actually was the Enterprise unless, wait no it was not the Enterprise, it was the Defiant and it was Worf who was in command of it on our Fleet run to Deep Space Nine." LaForge said to Harris.
As Harris was saying "Thank you, LaForge and Riker." Worf decided to join in to the Conference as well "LaForge, the Defiants engines are damaged, we are going to need a tow to the starbase but everything else is working, and Captain Harris is it?, is finally nice to meet you I wish it was under better circumstance." "I Agree," said Harris, he then continued to say "Mr. Worf, have LaForge or Riker tow the Defiant back to Stargate Command shipyard in orbit of Mars unless you need full repair then proceed to Stargate Command Operations Starbase in orbit of Earth"
Back on Earth, Stargate Commands' lead team and General took the weekend off to relax for expect the Starfleet officers who took the weekend to continued building the ship yard and the ships to be ready for use by Tuesday morning and staffed.
On Saturday at O'Neill's Cabin in the woods Dannel, Sam, Teal'c, and George showed up and discussed some pondering issues that they are wondering what is going on with the control of the base come Monday. General Hammond started to say, "I have been transferred to Washington for a new assignment and the new base commander will be there on Monday, and report as normal and keep the Warrior and her crew out of talk around Kinsey if he shows up at the base. We don't want that information in his hand, otherwise he will really question what is going on in space and please cover up as much as you guys can."
"We got it general", Sam said to George.
"Do you know who is the new base commander going to be?" Jack asked.
"Some Doctor Elizabeth Weir," George said to every in the living room at O'Neills cabin, thats when Jackson popped his head up and added, "Doctor Weir, is a talented peace leader who handled peace talks with nations who were possibly about to fight."
Warrior's Lower Shuttle Bay
Mars Orbit
9 April 2004
1900 Hours
Back aboard the Warrior the engineering teams spent time from 1600 till now unpacking the workers bees and began construction on the shipyard and the fleet of starships that are already to be built from earth contractors need for defense of Earth. In one of the Engineering briefing room, Stacey O'Roke divided up enough of the engineering teams up into twelve teams without hampering standard ship maintenance jobs, and the teams will have 5000 officers each from earth that reports to the teams. Stacy said at the briefing room, "The twelve teams are going to be based on what the job is going to require. The first team is going to be put on the task of construction of the ship yard. Team two is going to build the first ship. Team three is going to build the second ship. Team four will piece together the fourth ship. Team five will be wiring systems on all the ships. Team six will be in charge of installing all the instrument panels. Team seven will be installing all food systems on the ships. Team eight has the task of installing the power systems Warp Core, Hyperdrive, Impulse engines. Team nine is working on testing systems. Team Ten will be installing all medical systems. Team eleven is going to work on bridge system. Team Twelve is going to handle Transporter room systems."
At the same time Dr. Marlene began, training the medical doctors in the military branches on how to use starfleet medical equipment for healing. The building of these ships took all the people that the US Military branches could loan while the rest were deployed for operation freedom.
As it came upon 1930 hours the Spacedock parts that Ryan set as a replicated job from the Asgard Core was ready for assembling. Ryan had Stacey pull all crews off the other ships and put the resources on the station which took about an hour and a half to assemble since the parts were preassembled by Thor. As the station finished at 2000 hours Ryan asked the USAF Prometheus to depart from earth and head to Spacedock for a refit and upgrades with Asgard Systems. While the Prometheus was being refitted with upgrades, the first three ships were ready to roll off to the station they are the Orion, Endeavor, and the Columbus.
The new ships that the crew of the Warrior built using the parts from the United States Air Force was transformed into Akira Class Ship based platform which included in the construction features of the Federation styled engineering room included a Hyperdrive subsystem located on a separate deck from the Mark V warp core, Advanced impulse engines. Bio-neural gel packs and mix of Command Crystals for all computer functions. All sleeping quarters are built with sonic showers and for double occupancy. The dining areas got upgrades with Food Replicators. On all the enter and exit ways are reinforced with force fields. The computer systems combine a Federation Mark XX computer core system and an Asgard Core for an interesting match up of systems. Docking ports to dock at spacedock and other stations. The Transporter systems are divided up into 3 styles the Cargo Transporters inside the cargo rooms and in the main transporter rooms have six pads each on the transporter surface, then two ring rooms with force fields around the outer edge of the of the rings to not let anyone on who does not belong on the ship these models require an modified IDC transponders to trigger the rings whereas the regular transporters have weapon disablers on them.
The science teams added science labs with full stock of probes that can enhance the sensors reach beyond the reach of what the current range of the X-303. The Air Force wanted to use old style elevators but because of the weapon pod and the design they decided to use the Federation turbolift style. The main shuttle holds at least 100 F-302s, and then two additional bays next to the weapon pods. Standard tractor beams to make sure the F-302s don't hit the deck before they land. On the last deck in the forward section and aft section added tractor beams to tow damaged ships to the dry dock or space dock for repairs.
On the bridge of the Orion, Endeavor, and the Columbus will have the standard Federation bridge layout compared to X-303 Bridge. The layout starting from the front of the ship to the rear of the bridge it starts with helm station, hyperdrive station, and ops station in front of the view screen, in the middle about 12' from the view screen is the captain's chair. Behind the captains' chair is Master Systems Display. The engineering station is to the left and rear of the captains' chair. The tactical station is to the left and rear of the captains' chair. The galaxy chart on the bridge is replaced with a astrometrics lab on its own deck. All the communication systems are with combadges and/or single panel button instead of switches and small data packets, which can be much, more full spectrum subspace communication relays.
The vessel layout is similar to the Akira class ships with modifications on the hanger deck instead of the standard shuttle crafts the that fill the bay the crew replaced them with 100 F-302 fighters for launch. In the Flight Ops Control Center its manned by nine officers, three officers manage the takeoff and landing of the F-302 vessel in and out of the shuttle bay, next two are monitoring all primary systems, the next three are command officers who command the Flight Ops Control Center, the last officer is the Commander of Flight Ops Control Center.
As the Columbus, Endeavor and the Orion rolled of the line and piloted to the space station it was up to the Air Force to select the commanders of these ship and staffed with a crew of 300 total plus 800 pilots for the F-302s. Starbase required at least 1000 or more to manage it with the 4 ships currently docked in. As the ships pulled in Captain Harris and Colonel Carter, General Hammond, went threw all the records and drew ship captains for the 3 ships and one station Commander which will be from the Warrior crew they selected Lt. Commander Tiffany Jefferson as the Starbase Commander. The Columbus captain will be Major Reynolds, for the Endeavor captain will Colonel Pendergast, and the Orion captain will be Major Harper. The rest of the ships will take longer then expected they needed to be finished.
It was just entering 2000 hours when the Titan, Defiant, and Challenger finally made it to orbit of Earth. Harris opened up a communication channel on the bridge to the three ships "Welcome to Earth, Captain Riker, Captain Worf, and Captain LaForge, please proceed into Spacedock instead of the shipyards, we have some ships in construction their, at the shipyards we decided to build some Akira class ships instead for the fleet of the USAF Stargate program they have a better system for traveling through space and plus they have some Federation technology onboard as well, plus we have some major things to discuss in person, and by the way this is for senior officers only due to the nature of the content." "Thank you" all three captains said to Harris.
On board the Titan, Troi was sensing that Harris was hiding something that he did not mention in the transmission and also why Earth this date and time, she turned to her husband, "Riker, I have a feeling that Harris might not be telling us the truth, and from his First Officer I read that we might be shocked when we find out that this timeline and we are not in our reality, but this reality use some sort of device that lets people travel from planet to planet without starships but they have a starship its inside the spacedock under refit and upgrades. I also read that Lt. Commander Ryan O'Connell has no reason what brought all of us here to this reality but he has been searching and searching to see if the rift closes and moves or is closed for good."
"What do you mean by that Tori?" Riker said to his wife.
"Well Will, we might be stuck here for a while and no possibility to return to our reality if Picard and the Crushers show up then we know it target Harris's ship and the Enterprise's former main crew or not. Lets put a hail out for the Enterprise on the comms and see if she is near by." Tori said to her husband.
"Good thinking," Riker said to his wife, he then turn to his security officer and asked "Commander, send a message in a form for Crusher and Data to decipher if they are in this reality then we will know with a reply back."
As the ships proceed into stardock, Captains Riker, LaForge and Worf looked out the view screens on their ships, they were impressed on the spacedock and how it look just like the one in their timeline. Once the three ships arrived in side bay one two worker bees with towing systems began to tow the Defiant into a hangar for repairs. As LaForge look out into the hangar bay he was amazed at how the USAF ships in spacedock and he proceeded to have his engineering chief scan the starships to see their specs from an engineering standpoint. The engineering chief was so impressed that he asked LaForge to look at the specs with him. As LaForge and his engineer started to look at the USAF Prometheus they were impressed on the build and design quality of the vessel but they were wondering what was powering ship compared to their vessels.
Within minutes the three ships fully dock into their respective slots that Captain Harris selected for them to arrive. As the ships dock Harris and his senior staff was waiting outside the main airlock that connects to Spacedock to the Challenger, Titan, and the Defiant. "Welcome aboard the United States Air Force Spaceport, Captains Riker, LaForge, and Worf, please follow me to fleet briefing room on level 8, I need your engineering teams to report to my chief engineer we need their hands to help with ship building. Mr LaForge you will get a chance to check out the Stargate after the briefing."
Captain Harris lead Riker, LaForge and Worf and their Senior Staff to the conference room on level 8. As the turbolift with Harris, Riker, LaForge, and Worf, Captain Riker asked Harris a question about the situation "Captain Harris, what is exactly going on?"
Harris replied, "Well, Riker the Earth at this time is about to be under attack from an enemy called the Goa'ulds and they are a parasitic race which is different than the Trills in the Federation."
Counselor Troi asked a really interesting question "I am sorry about reading your thoughts Captain but I'm sensing that Lt Commander Ryan O'Connell has not found a way for us to get home yet is that correct?"
"Counselor, it is correct but Lt. Commander Ryan O'Connell is working hard on getting us back to our reality. Due to the Goa'ulds being at the edge of the solar system that has put our investment at the moment on that threat. Does anyone have any other question." Harris replied to the counselor question.
"I have a question" LaForge said.
"What is it, LaForge?" Harris said.
"Do you know what powers the Air Force spaceship?" LaForge asked.
"They are using a fuel called naquadria it's what powers the hyperdrive engines, the Ring system was designed by the Ancients, and I will give you a tour of Stargate Command in the morning." Harris said to every in the turbolift with him.
The turbolift arrived at Level 8, they made their way to the main fleet briefing room. Once in the briefing room Harris asked for everyone to have a seat so they can began with the briefing, he then tapped the view screen and opened up the video that Dr. Daniel Jackson had recorded on Earth on a tape and was transferred into a form to be played back on the viewscreen. Harris left the briefing room for about an hour so everyone can watch the video. As Harris was outside the briefing room Lt. Commander Tiffany page him, "Jefferson to Harris, I am detecting the Enterprise on the long range sensors, sir."
"Thank you, Tiffany. Can you transmit a message to Captain Picard and have him report to Earth at maximum warp." Harris replied to Tiffany.
Station Ops
Spacedock, Earth
9 April 2004
2000 Hours
Tiffany was sitting in Ops she ordered Colonel Thomas to open a hail to the Enterprise. "Earth Spacedock to the Enterprise, Captain Picard come in?"
With in seconds on the viewscreen in Ops Captain Picard appeared on the screen, "Lt. Commander Tiffany Jefferson, Can you please explain to me what is going on here and how did we get stuck in to this predicament?"
"Well, captain can you set a course to Earth and get here at maximum warp we will discuss it in person and not over subspace. Is Commander Data, Doctor Crusher, Wesley Crusher with you as well and Guinan?" Jefferson said of the communication to the Enterprise.
"Tiffany the only ones aboard with me are Data, and Dr. Crusher, I don't know if Guinan and Wesley are with me but let me check with Dr. Crusher on her son, hold on one moment." Picard said as he tap his commbadge "Dr. Crusher is your son aboard the Enterprise?" with in seconds Dr. Crusher replied "Yes he is captain I forgot to notify you that he was coming aboard to visit for a bit." "Did you hear that Tiffany?", said Picard.
"I did hear that captain, and can you notify Mr. Crusher that there is a data packet transferring over subspace for him to look and study, Lt. Commander Ryan O'Connell needs him and Data to review the data packet and report to him as soon as you arrive at Spacedock.", said Tiffany.
"Picard to Wesley, can you report to the bridge right now, I need you and Mr. Data to run thru a data packet that is being transferred from the Warrior to the Enterprise." Picard said to Wesley.
Wesley replied to Picard "I will be right there."
"Captain Picard may I ask where you and your current crew were enroute to when you showed up on our sensors? And by the way Riker, LaFore and Worf are here as well." Tiffany said over the communication to the Enterprise.
"Well Commander, we were just about to catch up to the Defiant when it disappeared and by the way the rift moved from the Warrior and you left Altair III, and We found something that Ryan might want to take a look at it looks like someone used something very bad to cause the original rift to begin with and from the looks of it is of this century and was in our path as we came up on the vessel." Picard said as he was reviewing ship logs.
"Tiffany to O'Connell, can you report to Ops?" Tiffany said as she tapped her communicator.
"What is it Tiffany?" Ryan said from inside Stargate Operations on the Warrior.
"Um, Captain Picard found something that might answer what is going on here and the ship specs might be something that you and SG-1 have seen before and it does not look good if the Borg get their hands on it and even worse if Section 31 gets their grimmie little hands on it as well, or even worse then that the romulans as well", replied Tiffany.
"Can you patch me in to the Communication, I need to ask Commander Data some question if you are done with the hail?" Ryan said to Tiffany who was up in Ops.
"Captain Picard, I am transferring the hail now to Ryan who is in a secret command post and will take it from here see you at Earth as soon as you get here.", said Tiffany in the hail to Picard.
Tiffany tapped a few key commands on the panel in front on her desk to transfer the hail to Ryan's Office on the Warrior. "Greetings, Captain Picard, I'm Lt. Commander Ryan O'Connell, sir and I hear you might have the data I am looking for all along it might help us get back thru that rift finally. Mr Data what have you found out from your sensor scans?" Ryan said to over the comms to the Enterprise.
"Well Ryan, I have been able to surmise from the data , I have collect on the ship it appears to be of an unknown design in the ships computer and it does not look like any Federation ship on record nor ever has been recorded into records in the 24th century." Data said to Ryan.
"Um, Data I think I know what that ship is but I think I might have to call in a favor to verify it and if it is what I think it is then we are going to have a serious ramifications but please stand by, Mr. Data", Ryan said as he was reaching for the computer controls for the Asgard Core and the comm panel to open a call to Colonel Carter. "Ryan to Carter, come in?"
Carter reaches for the communicator Ryan gave her to use to contact the Warrior and or the crew "Go a head Ryan" she said.
"Can you beam up I got something to show you and I will have you back to Earth before the end of the night." Ryan said to Carter.
"Fine I will be right there, and how bad does it look?" Carter said to Ryan.
"Well I think it is a ship that a certain friend of ours might not be happy about this and he will really get it." Ryan said to Carter as he was still connected with the Enterprise.
"What friend of yours and this Colonel Carter are you talking about?" Picard said.
"Well Captain how do I put this if that is a ship of Asgard design then that is really bad and if any one other than us can get to it then it could be a very bad for the federation and the sectors." Ryan said, "My specialist on her way up to the Warrior right now to talk with me about the situation but I am going to need that data as soon as possible from Data and Mr. Crusher."
"Mr. Data transfer the information from the sensor in an encrypted data packet to the Warrior. And please let Tiffany know we shall be there within the hour and plus we are closer than when the Titan, Challenger, and the Defiant arrived before us." Picard said to Ryan.
As the hall wrapped up with the Enterprise, Ryan made his way to the transporter room to wait for Carter to beam up to the ship. "So how was the afternoon at O'Neills place?" Ryan asked just for fun. "Well it was okay, and not much else happened, except for when you called and said that and Asgard ship might be at fault and we may finally have some answers to the problem at hand with how and why you and those other ships showed up at the doorstep of this Earth, so shall we head to Stargate Ops I don't have to be back to the base till Monday at 0600 hours?", Carter said to Ryan.
Ryan and Sam made their way to Stargate Operations on board the Warrior. As they get into the room Ryan starts running the calculations, Sam double checks all the math too and then they fire up the Asgard Cord and asked Thor for another check as the systems came back three times with the same data points they knew that they have to make a call to the Thor in this timeline and notified him that one of the Asgards was responsible for the tear in to the 24th century and a different reality and we have the figures now to fix the damage that was done to the time lines. Ryan asked Thor on the Warrior to open a secure communication to Ida Galaxy to the Asgards. While that take a few minutes to connect Ryan tapped his communicator "Captain Harris, I have some interesting data that i received from the Enterprise and you are not going to believe it but we found it was and Asgard who created the tear and it will take us a while to fix it and return home but we can get a message to Starfleet Command and alert them of the situation but it will have to directly to Senior Admirals only and it must be done on a new channel that no one but the federation can pick up. I also am able now to track where the next tear in space and time is going to appear in this time and in our reality. So if we want to get that message sent to Admiral Janeway we need to next 60 minutes and send near pluto just at the entrance to sector 001 fast or we will lose the chance to contact her. The informational data packet that needs to be sent to Janeway is ready anyways."
"Ryan can you have Tiffany transmit the data burst packet via a probe." Harris said to Ryan as he was just about to run threw the main topic with the three ships he has all ready in the briefing room.
"I will send the data packet and order the ships to intercept the Asgard ship and escort it back to the rift and if possible have her along with Voyager bring the ship back to this time if they need to have another assist then they should do so." Ryan said to the Captain. Ryan and Carter prepped a probe for launching and the only ship that was ready for departure at the moment was the Warrior. "Um Captain one other thing request permission to take the Warrior for a probe launch and if possible to separate the ship to saucer section only to make the run. I need to test the hyperdrive engines as well incase if SG-1 needs the to use the ship for a mission which reminds me I need to check in with the science teams near Antarctica." Ryan stated to Harris who was still in the briefing room. "Go ahead take the minimum crew that you need to achieve the mission and return one you meet up with the Enterprise." Harris said to Ryan.
"Thank You, Captain." Ryan said to Harris.
Ryan ask the young ensign on duty to separate the ship to just to the two modules for right now and not the full separation mode. Once the Warrior was separated they made the way to the edge of the rift and launched a class IX communication probe thru the tear. As the probe exited the rift in the future near a federation beacon it began to transmit on a federation secured channel just as it started to transmit a federation starship under the Command of Christopher Eddington arrived on scene and open a channel to the buoy when he did the comm open up to a video hall from the 21st century. "This is Lt. Commander Ryan O'Connell and I have a Priority One Message that must be transmitted to Admiral Janeway at Starfleet Command, We don't have much time" Ryan said on the hail. Eddington turned to his comms officer and asked the person to open a channel to Starfleet HQ Priority One. On Earth at Starfleet Headquarters in the Admirals office of Kathryn Janeway was talking with 7 of 9 when a Priority One message came in to her office. "Good afternoon Captain Eddington, what do I the pleasure of your hail sir?" Janeway said to Eddington.
"Well I have Lt. Commander Ryan O'Connell on the other channel and he has some very import information you might need to see." Eddington said to Janeway.
As the viewscreen switch views and Ryan appeared on the screen "Hello Janeway, Sorry for contacting you like this but we have a rogue ship that might have cause this tear in space and reality and time and we need you and Voyager to round it up and deliver it back to us, is that 7 of 9 in your officer?"
"Yes it is, Commander, may I ask why you want to know?" Janeway said before she turned to her.
"7 of Nine I need you to double check every data packet that is being sent to you, review them in Astrometrics on Voyager and by the way grab Tom Parris we are going to need him as well. Just be careful when you meet up with the ship do not act aggressive with it at all the creature is very friendly." said Ryan.
"Understood"Janeway said.
"Just make sure that you can get the ship back here before next week so we can get us home or this rift will keep expanding with every tear that the Asgard does." Ryan said just before the rift cut the communication channel to the 24th Century.
Admiral Janeway's Office
Starfleet Command, Earth
3 March 2389
1700 Hours
As Janeway pondered the topic that was addressed to her from a colleague who was on working of another Admiral who past away at just after the Warrior disappeared off sensors near Altar III and then disappearance of the Enterprise, Defiant, Challenger, and Titan. She should not believe that another other reality could affect the sector so bad but with what Ryan said to her made her think that she needs to get her ship and stop the vessel at all costs before the Borg or another race captures the ship, mainly the Borg or the Ferengi at that. Janeway asked Seven of Nine to start heading up research with Ensign Kim on Voyager as she went to the Rear Admirals to address the situation at hand. When Janeway made her way to the conference room where some admirals were meeting for dinner she approached three of them and ask them to come with her to her office due to the nature of the data one of the admirals in the group was Admiral Parris, "Sorry to intrude Admirals but there is an urgent matter at hand and we need to talk, Admiral Parris can you and the other two admirals join me for a meeting in my office right now and please alert Starfleet Intelligence that we have a rogue ship running loose in the Alpha Quadrant and it has caused the loss of three most important ships in the fleet and one of them is the Enterprise, along with the Titan, the Defiant, and the Warrior all trapped in an alternate reality caused by that ship and we need to stop it."
Before the Admirals could finish their dinners they left the cafeteria and proceed to follow Janeway to her office. As they arrived in to her office Seven of Nine was back with a plan of attack to capture the ship and force it to get Voyager and the ship to return close enough for a friend of a friend to take care of the problems he caused but to do that they need to find the best way to catch the ship. This would take months for the federation to track the ship down in the mean time back in 2004, The Warrior and her crew along with starships Enterprise, Defiant, Titan and the Challenger were beginning deployment of defense of measures around Earth and the solar system.

0600 Hours
As the morning rose on board spacedock Lt. Commander Tiffany Jefferson along with the Captains from the Warrior, Enterprise, Defiant, Titan and Challenger met up in ops to discuss the next steps for planetary defense. "What should our primary target should be protected on Earth and how should we be deployed in a formation?" Worf asked in ops. Lt Commander Ryan O'Connell just came running in and he had the plans ready for fleet deployment he said, "Alright here is the deployment layout of the fleet the Enterprise and the Titan are going to be position just on the other side of Jupiter, Worf you are going to take the Defiant and move into position with the Warrior-A on the surface, LaForge move the Challenger into position next to the Warrior on the far side of Venus, Tiffany lock down Spacedock and prep it for battle station drills every two hours, as for the three ships we are building they are going to be place in a fleet formation around the United States Air Force X-303 and will be deployed on the dark side of the Moon. I am going to prep the Saucer section for a mission incase if SG-1 the flagship team needs to go get the supplies to fire up the outpost under the ice in Antarctica. Oh Captain LaForge, would you join me for a trip to Stargate Command?"
LaForge jumped at the chance for the trip to Stargate Command, "Lt. Commander, I would like the chance to look at the gate and computer systems, oh can Commander Data, Wesley Crusher, join us as well?"
"That should not be a problem, I will contact the base as soon as we are finished here", Ryan said to LaForge.
"I have a question for you Commander, how are we going to know if the enemy arrives in the solar system if we cannot detect the ships that drop out of the FTL travel?" LaForge asked Lt. Commander Ryan O'Connell.
"Oh I was just about to have a unique friend of mine install some gear to bring the detection of hyperspace windows and other new features", said Ryan as he tapped a few keys on the panel in front of him to open a channel to Stargate Operations Bridge on the Warrior, "May I introduce you to Thor he is an Asgard and his image was installed on to an Asgard Core. Can the Asgard Core make some system upgrades on the four Federation ships docked inside spacedock with Hyperspace window detectors, Asgard weapons, Asgard transporters?"
"Lt. Commander, I will began installing systems on the ships they shall be done by 0700 hours." Thor said to everyone that was in ops attending the briefing. As the briefing wrapped up Ryan made his way over to Geordi so they can make their way to the transporter room on the way Ryan tapped his communicator "Data and Wesley can you join Geordi and myself in transporter room 3 on the station and then we can head down to Stargate Command for a tour of the base and a look at the Stargate are you two interested in checking it out?" "Commander Ryan, Data and myself are interested in taking a look at the device and studying it if it is possible that we can?", said Wesley to Lt. Commander Ryan.
It took Wesley, and Data a few minutes to make their way to the transporter room on the station. As soon as everyone arrived at the transporter room Ryan instructed the transporter chief on duty to beam to the surface and call them if anything broke while they were tour the base.

It was not long after the briefing when Ryan, Geordi, Data and Wesley beamed down to Stargate Command, Colonel Carter was waiting for them in the Transporter room. As soon as Ryan, Geordi, Data and Wesley arrived the first thing that Sam and Ryan took them to get security passes. Once they were badged, they proceed to level 28 and the gate room where Dr. Jackson was waiting for them. "Welcome to Stargate Command, I am Dr. Daniel Jackson, is Sam about to show you the gate?", said Daniel. Geordi replied, "We Sure are and is it possible for us to take a quick trip of world and back with you and Sam leading us?"
"That should not be a problem, Geordi.", Daniel said to Geordi.
As Geordi looked at the Stargate he could see the some unique reading with his eye and when he looked at the gate as he view it he could see the mineral without using a tricorder. After they looked at the gate up close they went into the Control room and they looked at how the computer system was set up and the calculations that was being used to map stellar drift and when the three of them saw the formula Data, Wesley and Geordi decide they could rewrite the code in a faster way of calculating stellar drift of every planet in every sector of the milky way. Once they rewrote the code, Sam was impressed that the computer was design to move faster to dial the gate and then Wesley asked a question "Do you think it would be possible for us to install newer computer core?"
"Ryan moved it to a Federation computer core allready but if we can off load other services to separate cores could make the dialing the gate faster and create a core for each quadrant in the milky way to be calculated on." Sam said with Ryan agrees.
"I could have Stacy get a two teams down here and upgrade it to 4 cores instead of one core." Ryan said then he tapped his communicator "O'Connell to Engineering"
"Stacy here, what would like commander?" Stacy said.
"Can you beam down here with an Engineering team and upgrade the computer cores to 4 cores instead of one computer core?"
"I will be right there with a team of four after I finish up tweaking the sensors you had me implement", said Stacy.
"Thank you, Mr. Data, Wesley, Geordi, Sam, and myself are going to take a trip thru the gate and back see you in a little bit", said Ryan.
Sam had the staff sergeant dial the closest planet for a visit to see the DHD and how it works as the gate finished connecting, they waited for Sam to walk them up to the gate as LaForge stood in front of the gate he was able to see the event horizon and wormhole buffer patterns with his optical implants. They then proceed thru the Stargate to Martin's world on that planet they realized that it would be a good spot to set up a full starfleet headquarters and fix it up to be a key outpost. As the gate turned off the noticed an interesting petasol as they exited the gate, Sam announced that the petasol device is a Dial Home Device. Data proceed to look at the DHD with LaForge's help Data linked his positronic brain to the DHD, once Data was connected DHD, he accessed some information that Stargate command never found out about the device some of the stuff he found was how to build gates and DHD. After Mr. Data downloaded the information to his positronic net they made the decision to return to Earth to download all the data to a computer on the space station. Sam decided to let Wesley dial the gate as the gate connect Ryan typed his IDC and imputed his code Data, LaForge and Wesley thought of a better way to transmit the code. Upon their return Ryan decided to head to his lab on the base to do some work, Data, Geordi, and Wesley made there way to the transporter room and beamed back up to the station to download the information Mr. Data collected from the DHD on the planet.
William was waiting in the transporter room for Ryan but when it was Data, Geordi and Wesley return, he realized that Ryan was in his lab at Stargate Command. William proceed back to Ops and made a call to Ryan, "Harris to Ryan."
"Ryan here, Captain what do you need?", said Ryan.
"I was going over drills and we are fully prepared for the attack, may I asked what you guys did with Mr. Data?", asked William.
"We downloaded some information off the DHD on the planet to Mr. Data's positronic net and were going to download the information into a computer core we are designing for the SGC and the station was a better environment to work on it for safety reason due to a creepy sinister group in the government the only way aboard requires the person to be validated thru me and must be scanned for wiretaps and spy tools before transporting up, anyways how are they coming, and could you have Counselor Troi beam down I need her help with reading the mind of everyone on the base for their thoughts. Oh if we need a place of our own Martin Lloyds former planet will be useful as a planet for starfleet command thats if Janeway cannot complete her mission to capture the Asgard.", said Ryan.
"I will have Counselor Troi there before the night is out.", said William.

In the robotics lab on spacedock Geordi and Wesley began downloading everything that Data collected from the DHD. There was a lot of information they found some of the stuff they found was a rich database of all gates with in the milky way as well as some space gates that stargate command did not know about they also figured out how to add a DHD program to run on the shuttles that can fit thru the gate they also found some specs to build new gates. "Geordi to Ryan", said Geordi as he tapped his communicator. "Go ahead Geordi", Ryan said after he tapped his communicator. "We got a lot of data from the DHD and we found a way to incorporate a DHD dialer on the shuttles for a tackle advantage but we cannot add it to the x-302s due to the size and build, Wesley, Data and myself are developing a new shuttle line that can operate and fly thru the gates.", Geordi said.
"Way to go Geordi, how long will it you have a build ready for me to view and layout?", asked Ryan.
"It will take us till monday to have blueprints drawn up and ready for comment by you and Colonel Carter", said Geordi.
Geordi gathered some fact about the size the gate is 6.7 meters and to fly thru the gate has to be in the range of 4.7 meters and 5.2 meters wide. The size Geordi came up with height of 4.7, width of 4.9 meters in wide when the engine pods are retracted, the width would be 5.1 meters wide when the engine pods are extended, the length at 12 meters. Mr. Worf was strolling by the robotics when Geordi grab and pulled him into the design layout and Worf add that the ship must have both shields and cloaking technology, along with phasers on the four key sides of the vessel, two micro-torpedos launcher attach to the two drive pods as well a aft center micro-torpedo launcher. As the team build up the first drafts they had to figure out the control panel layouts and guides to build a first ship it looked just right it had a curved look like the type 7 shuttle but with the design of a Danube class vessel. The shuttle was in construction Geordi started mapping out the engine systems, Data started mapping out the computer systems, Wesley started mapping out the frame of the shuttle's hull. There are two transporter pads direct center of the shuttle rear cabin. The shuttle would be designed with capabilities to travel at warp 6 as main engine. It would take Wesley, Geordi and Data till early monday morning to finish a build the vessel, in the meantime Ryan was rechecking his figures he noticed that communications can be send but vessel can only go one way until the Asgard who caused the problem in the first place.

The Vice President Robert Kinsey, and Dr. Elizabeth Weir, showed up on monday morning. Dr. Weir was getting situated when Dr. Jackson walked up on her as she was on the phone with some people when the Gate alarm went off both Jackson and Weir made their way to the Control Room when the Sergeant turn to Weir and Jackson, he said "We are receiving Master Bra'Tac idc code sir" "I know an idc is sergeant" Weir said in front of them, Jackson follows the statement with "Master Bra'tac is an ally, and if we don't don't open the iris." Weir then said "Open the Iris sergeant." After the iris opened Dr. Weir and Dr. Jackson made their way to the embarkation room where Master Bra'tac arrived on the ramp down to the floor.
"This is Doctor Weir she is the new leader of the facility." Jackson said to Bra'tac.
"Has Hammond of Texas came ill?" Bra'tac said to Dr. Weir and Dr. Jackson.
"No we had some shake up in the political system. So, What brings you to earth Bra'tac?" Jackson said to Bra'tac.
"I have some news of great importance about the Tau'ri.", said Bra'tac.
They lead Bra'tac to the briefing room on level 27 and once they arrived in the briefing room Jackson head to make one quick call before the briefing began. He walk to just the other side of the base commander's office and tapped the communicator Ryan handed him and said, "Jackson to O'Connell."
"O'Connell here, go ahead Jackson." said Ryan.
"Can you come to the briefing room?" Jackson said over the communicator to Ryan.
"Jackson can I bring Harris and Tori with me?", said Ryan.
Daniel replied with a hasty "Yes and you better hurry."
Ryan tapped his communicator "Captain Harris can you beam down to earth for a briefing with Master Bra'tac but dress in standard SGC uniform to blend in, and step on it we will begin as soon as you are in the room.",
Once the communication with Harris ended Ryan tap his communicator "O'Connell to Counselor Troi?" "Go ahead to O'Connell", Troi said to Ryan's call.
"Can you join Captain Harris in transporter room one and beam down to the SGC for a briefing and then you can return to the station for debriefing the fleet.", Ryan said to Troi.
Captain Harris and Counselor Troi made there way to the transporter room on the station, they changed into USAF uniform to stand in the briefing room. Once in uniform they step on to the transporter pads Transporter Chief Rosa was ready to transport them she just had to notify Lt. Scott Jordan who was still on the surface maintaining the transporter station at the SGC. "Rosa to Jordan" Rosa said as she hit the comm panel on the transporter controls. Jordan answered Rosa communication "Go ahead and beam the captain and the lt. commander down, I am ready to receive them."
Rosa said over the comm "I am transporting them now to your location standby to receive them."
It was about three minutes for the patterns to arrive and re-materialized Harris and Troi. "Welcome back to the SGC Harris and Troi. Hurry up and get to level 27 the meeting is about to begin." Jordan said to them.
"Thank you, Jordan", Harris said to Lt. Scott Jordan.
"What are you doing here Kinsey?" O'Neill said to Kinsey.
"I am here to listen to what Mr. Bra'tac has to say in person" Kinsey replied to O'Neill.
Weir said to everyone in the room "Can everyone take their seats." as that was being said Ryan, Troi, and William got off the elevator just in time for the meeting. Ryan also tapped his communicator, "Ryan to Spacedock" "Tiffany here, what can I do for you" Tiffany said to Ryan over the communicator. "Can you keep this commline open and patch it out to the fleet.", Ryan said just before he entered the room.
"All right Master Bra'tac what is so important that you need to tell us." Kinsey said in front of the group.
"I heard from the ranks of Jaffa's who are loyal to our cause heard that Anubis will be here with in three days." Bra'tac said in the meeting.
"How many ships are on a direct course?", Ryan said looking at Bra'tac.
"One Right right now, Ryan but he does inten for his full fleet to show up and attack the Tauri.", Master Bra'tac said to everyone in the room.
"How can we trust you information Mr. Bra'tac?", Kinsey said to Bra'tac.
"This came from a reliable source and I trust them with my life.", said Mr. Bra'tac
"Vice President Kinsey, we have a plan in place already for the invasion.", said Carter. Just before everyone wrapped up the briefing Troi was reading Kinsey mind about if he really can trust information from Bra'Tac, Troi also found the information Bra'Tac was true and that Anubis is on his way with a fleet and it will at Earth's front door on Wednesday. Troi turn to Ryan and whispered in his ear "Ryan Bra'Tac is telling the truth we have till Wednesday to be ready." Ryan turned to Harris "We got to make sure the fleet is ready and deployed by tuesday at midnight." Harris turned back to Ryan saying "I agree Ryan but how is the fleet going to know?" "I already took care of that by leaving a commline open to spacedock before we entered the room." Ryan said at a whisper, when Kinsey's ears popped up he said to Ryan, "Excuse me, solider but is there something you like to share to the group?"
"No Mr. Vice President, my colleague and I were just saying we are ready but if you don't beleive it feel free to voice your opinion that's all, Sir.", Ryan said.
It was not long before Bra'tac said, "I must return to see if I can aquire people and ships to help defend the Tau'ri".
"I will join him." said Teal'c.
As the meeting wrapped up Dr. Jackson, O'Neill and Carter made their way along with Ryan, Troi, William to Ryan's lab on level 26 to talk about what their plan are behind Vice President Kinsey. Once in the lab Ryan started the discussion about their plan. "Alright, what is our tactic for the intruder that is entering this solar system since Teal'c and Bra'tac went to seek out some extra Jaffa to help fight for freedom.", said Ryan. "Well how far are the other ships coming, Ryan?", asked Carter. "The first three ships are finished and they are the Orion, the Endeavor, and the Columbus and thank you for helping us to select three captains for the vessels. We also have a spacedock finished and three ship yard docks finished as well. We just started to build a few more ships for the defense of earth. And our science team should be reporting in with anytime soon, and speaking of them here is the call now", replied Ryan as he tapped a few keys on the panel next to his computer to open the view screen. "Colonel Carter we found what something under Antarctica about 2 miles below the surface of the Antarctica it is southeast of McMurdo Station research facility about 100 meters from the spot you and O'Neill was pulled out. Request permission to uncover the structure and begin to cleaning it up to work inside the facility, and see if it still structurally intact." said Brandon to the gang in Ryans' lab.
"Brandon you have full permission, to uncover the facility but do it while masking the location and jam anything that moves to record the location from space. Has the Defiant landed next to the Warrior-A?" Harris replied his Chief Science Officer aboard the Warrior-A.
"The Defiant is just landing sir, she just left spacedock and proceeding to the landing zone we set up before we start digging and we also are combining the strength of the two ships to create a wide jamming field to protect it. We will have station the science team out of the Warrior-A and the two runabouts on the surface but to dig down to the facility will be tricky we go to make sure the tools we are using will not damage the structure under the ice shelf." Brandon said over the comm channel.
"Do whatever you have to just make sure it is intact and protect." Carter said and Jackson just added "I want to get there and study the facility once it gets cleaned up and ready for people study inside the Ancient Outpost."

U.S.S. Warrior-A proceeded to land along with the Defiant as well as Runabouts London and Paris, at least ten meters in a diamond formation around the entrance was located to get down the best way to the outpost. The science teams first setup was a few holographic generators to blend the cave they are opening to the surface and the outpost. While two science team members created a holographic image over the cave, Chief O'Brien worked on a way to combine the shields to create a shield from the four ships wide enough to cover the ships as well as the outpost below. As the teams used their hand phasers to cut holes into the ice to cut a clean path to the main room of the outpost.
The science team made it to the main room of the outpost. They then proceed to clean out enough of the room to get Warrior-A and the two runabouts below the surface. The Engineering team from the Defiant under O'Brien's command started to check and see if they could power up the outpost as the team scanned for power systems but they could not find anything except for a dead circuits and no way to add in the power from the two Defiant class ships without draining the power from the shields.

Colonel O'Neill started speaking Ancient at that time Ryan was in his lab when he saw O'Neill heading to the supply room to collect up some equipment to bore a hole down some where on Earth. Ryan walked up to the Colonel "Is there anything you need Colonel?" "Yeah a ship do you got one?", O'Neill said. Ryan replied, "I might be able to provide a ship if Teal'c and Bra'Tac can grab a cargo ship and get back to Earth or we can depart now and pick them up on the way to where you need to go?"
As O'Neill and Ryan were grabbing supplies and a Naquadah Generator, Sam and Daniel were in the control room checking to see if they could dial to Proclarush, it seems that they could not make a connection at all to the gate on Proclarush. That's when Sam and Daniel caught up to Jack and Ryan in the storage locker, Sam asked "Ryan do you have a ship ready now I think its time to head out as fast as we can?"
"I just told Jack the same thing, Daniel dial up Teal'c tell him we will pick him and Bra'tac up enroute. I just got to contact spacedock and notify William I am taking the Saucer Section of the Warrior", Ryan said as he tapped his communicator, "Ryan to Warrior" "Captain Harris here, what is it commander Ryan?", Harris said.
"Can you have the Saucer Section prepped for departure and have transporter room ready with hazmat suits for the mission I would like to lead with the ship?" Ryan asked.
"You may commander as long as Commander Gamble, and Steve Jefferson join you", Harris said. "Thank you Captain, we are transporting the gear up now to cargo bay one, and we shall be on the way up to the ship in five minutes, Ryan out.", as Ryan said as they moved to the transporter room on the surface as they were walk Dr. Weir was approaching SG-1 as they are on the way to a secret room, Ryan said to her "Dr. Weir notify General Hammond we have departed for Proclarush and Harris is mobilizing the fleet, and by the way kept this out of the hands of Kinsey please he does not need to know." "What is the reason why I should not tell Mr. Kinsey?" Dr. Weir asked. "Well, can we say it classified over his head and we have been sworn to secrecy about what we are doing but we can tell you is just notify Hammond, He will know what to do, and if you were wondering about my uniform all I can say is" with a wink he said, "Yes, now go we are running late if he shows up tomorrow then we might be a little late and tell have to have Harris alert teams at the south pole for battle stations, do not argue with me."
As that quick run in with SG-1 and Dr. Weir on the way to the elevator to transporter room on the surface. Dr. Weir made her way to the Red phone to the White House, she picked up the phone, "Mr. President, SG-1 and Ryan are on their mission, he said that Hammond would know what he meant by that statement, is he there George Hammond is he?"
"Dr. Weir, I heard it fine," General Hammond said as he was standing next to the phone. George walked over to the starfleet officer who was loaned to the White House and whispered into the ear of Lt. Ryan Thompson "Contact the Warrior-A and notify them to go Yellow Alert, go do out on the patio now." Lt. Ryan Thompson who at the was in a United States Air Force Uniform at the discretion of Hammond walked out on to the patio "Thompson to Warrior-A" Commander Brandon sitting in the command chair when Thompson made the connection to the ship "What is it Lieutenant?" "Yellow Alert and this is not a drill Commander please alert all crew members their and Advise them to wait for Hammonds signal from the White House or Harris from space dock or O'Connell from the Saucer Section of the Warrior.", Thompson replied to the commander. "Thank you, Lieutenant" as Brandon said that he turned to the crew and said "Yellow Alert, ensign get the Defiant on screen now so we can advise them of the situation right now along with the Runabouts we have in our command as well." The young ensign at the comm tapped a few keys and then Captain Worf appeared on the screen "Mr. Worf, Yellow Alert, O'Connell and SG-1 are departing Earth now and are on their way to Proclarush at maximum speed and should return to Earth by tomorrow." "Thank you, Brandon, Defiant out", Worf said as the viewscreen turned off.
In the Transporter Room, Ryan had the gear transported to Cargo Bay One, then Ryan instructed the transporter chief to beam them to Transporter Room two on the Warrior. With in seconds Ryan, Daniel, Jack, and Sam appeared in the transporter room on the ship Commander Gamble and Jefferson were waiting for them to off the transporter pads. All six of them proceeded to the bridge, once on the bridge Ryan instructed Ensign Turner to plot a course to Proclarush with a stop to pick up Bra'Tac and Teal'c in a cargo ship which will come in handy for the return to Earth. As the Warrior jumped in to hyperspace Ryan had Commander Gamble run battle drills every ninety minutes. The Warrior's Saucer Section drop out of hyperspace near where Teal'c and Bra'tac were waiting for the ship to pick them up Ryan opened a hail to the Cargo ship "Mr. Bra'Tac please proceed to the main shuttlebay and we can get under way to Proclarush." Bra'tac piloted the cargo ship in the shuttlebay. Once the cargo ship docked into the shuttlebay, Ryan had Ensign Turner resume course to Proclarush.
