"Rise and shine sir it's time for my plan to take action." Constantine said with a smile on his hollow image.

"What time is it?" Leonard groaned

"Its 1am sir" Constantine said cheerfully.

"What do you mean 1am, what the hell are you doing Constantine? Getting me up this early."

"Sir you told me to wake you up bright and early!" Constantine reassured him.

"Not this early, we only went to bed about an hour ago" Leonard said angrily he stared at the hologram with a ferrous look on his face, "you better give me a damn good explanation."

Luckily for Constantine he did.

"The plan required me to wake you at this time if I hadn't the plan would fail and we would be dead, is being alive better than having a lie in" Constantine asked

"Only a little better." Leonard said under his breath.

"So – were both in agreement let's get started."

"Shall I play the montage music?" Leonard growled

"What was that sir?" Constantine said cheerfully

"Nothing let's get started"

"My plan was simple" Constantine stated with pride. "It required perfected precision and skill the plan is to reprogram the flood and get them to rebuild the covenant ship but there is a small problem" Constantine said reluctantly.

"What small problem!"

" if they got one thing wrong the flood might become like the old flood and try and eat you – but it's a very small chance"

"Thank for the reassurance" Leonard frowned

Two hours later

"Constantine I hate you!" Leonard said will he ran for his life it seemed that Constantine equation had been off by point 04 percent

"quick- get to the shuttle" Constantine said calmly as it wasn't his life on the line

"Easier, said than done." Leonard stopped as he felt a stab of pain in his spine as a flood infection form tried to take control then it stopped it didn't go any further and then went back the way it came.

"Now what are they doing Constantine"

"It looks like the programming final took effect and not a moment too soon." Leonard sighed

"I hope you don't have any more great ideas Constantine"

"Sir I believe I do."
