Chapter Nine –Eye Candy.
Colonel Caldwell has been back on Atlantis for 5 minutes when he realises that something's, off. It's another 10, before he figures out what it is. He hasn't seen any of the women or any of the senior personnel. It's about 2137 hrs, Atlantis time; late, but not too late. They couldn't all be asleep.
A marine directs him down a dimly lit corridor. In a room at the end of the corridor, Dr's McKay, Zalenka and Beckett are playing Monopoly. Major Lorne, Lt. Aherne, Sgt. Hamilton and Dr Fey are watching a basketball game that, to Col. Caldwell's eye, is at least 6 months old. Sheppard and Ronon Dex are no where in sight.
"Come Colonel. Sit down," Zalenka gestured at an empty chair, "You can watch McKay, make sure he isn't cheating."
Caldwell hid a smirk, as McKay glared at the other scientist, sitting in the offered chair.
"I can't seem to find Dr Weir?" He asked.
Zalenka muttered something in Czech.
"Err," Beckett hesitated, "She's in the observation room"
"The observation room?" Caldwell could feel everyone looking at him.
Major Lorne stepped into view.
"All the women are watching the security cameras."
"Why?"
Lorne checked his watch.
"Lt. Colonel Sheppard, Specialist Dex, the Mountie and the wolf are about half way through their run, right about now."
