Alex watched with a primal glee as Teyla ducked under the heavy blow John delivered, narrowly avoiding the sharp blade of the knife in his hand. Twirling around to face his back, she drew back her fist and delivered a hard blow to his spine, causing him to stumbling back. Grunting, John turned on his heel, starting towards Teyla once again. Smiling she stepped to the side, letting him crash to the floor. Summoning all of her strength she closed her eyes, breathing deeply. Her eyes suddenly shot open again as a ball of fire curled around her fingers, sat on her palm and travelled up her arm. Without a moment's hesitation she threw her hand in John's direction, hitting him square in the chest. John flew back, hitting the floor with a loud thud. Teyla smiled down at him, a look of malignant glee on her face. Pushing off the wall, Alex clapped his hands together, giving Teyla a round of congratulatory applause. Going to her side, his hands slipped over her shoulders, travelled down her arms and rested on her waist. Leaning closer to her he smiled against her neck and whispered in to her ear.

"That was perfect." Teyla's smile only grew. Sheppard picked himself off the ground glaring at the woman in front of him. Alex removed his hands from her waist and started towards the door.

"You two better get some rest." Alex stopped short of walking through the door and turned to look over his shoulder. "For tomorrow, your friends will be joining us."

"Now they're both missing?" Woolsey asked confusion evident in his tone. Ronon shook his head crossing his arms tightly over his chest. Woolsey looked down as if thinking of what to say next. "And we have no idea what happened or where they are."

Again Ronon shook his head. "The little boy that we talked to said that he saw a man attacking Teyla and dragging her off towards the gate. This could link in with the attack the Luminati carried out on the Athosians."

Wolsey stared into the brown liquid in his cup, his head creased into a concentrated frown.

"Doctor McKay," he said finally, causing Rodney to look up from his laptop. "Is there any way you can find the last few addresses dialled?"

Rodney looked doubtful.

"I know where the Luminati have a base." Ronon said. It had been the first words he had spoken since he had arrived though the gate. (

"If, in fact, it was the Luminati that took the Colonel and Teyla? " Woolsey pointed out The room was silent. Richard looked from Ronon to Rodney and then back to Ronon. "Unless there is something you're not telling me."

Rodney's head shot down as he looked at his laptop again, attempting to hide himself behind the screen. Ronon shifted in his seat and looked away from Woolsey.

"When the army attacked, Teyla lost a few people, including an elder that was really close to her" Ronon said, he shifted again, seeming uncomfortable. "We also lost Doctor Keller in the attack. She had been killed." he continued

Woolsey said with a frown, "But that's impossible. How is she alive now if she died in the attack?" Again the room was silent as Ronon and McKay exchanged an awkward glance.

"Answer my question Mr. Dex!" Woolsey shouted.

Ronon opened his mouth to reply, but a new voice beat him to it.

"Because Rodney healed me."

The three men looked towards the door, only to be greeted by the sight of Jenifer Keller. She leaned on the door frame, her hand crossed loosely over her chest.

"He brought me back to life. He saved me."

An un-amused smirk tugged at the commander's lips. "If this is a joke, it is in very bad taste."

"It's no joke. He really did heal me." Jenifer said in an angry tone.

"Well, if this is true, then why did they not take you?" he asked, glancing at Doctor McKay.

"Well, we think that my… powers have something to do with the red cloud we ran into," the scientist said, not looking up from his laptop.

"That still does not answer my question, Doctor McKay. Why take the Colonel and Teyla, if you are the one with the super ability?" Wolsey asked.

McKay sighed, "You don't get it do you? We were all hit by the cloud. We all should have gained an ability."

The Atlantis commander looked at Ronon and asked, "Then what is your ability, Mr. Dex? "

Ronon merely shrugged, "We're wasting time just sitting around here talking. We need to find where they have taken Sheppard and Teyla, kill the bad guys and bring our friends home!" Ronon bolted up from his chair.

"I am sorry, I can't allow that," Woolsey replied.

"Why not! " Ronan exclaimed menacingly.

"I cannot allow you to do anything before you get checked out with a clean bill of health and discover if you do or do not have powers, Mr. Dex!"

Ronon started towards Woolsey, but Jenny's hand on his shoulder stopped him.

Woolsey continued, "And I expect a full report on what happened on Athos on my desk before anyone goes anywhere or does anything, is that clear?"

Ronon growled low in his throat and spun on his heel, storming through the door. A few Marines jumped out of the way of the Satedan's path as he thundered down the corridor with his fists clenched tightly at his sides.

Atlantis was quiet, the many corridors empty and black. The moon shone through the large long windows, lighting the floor with a pale yellow light. The city seemed as if it were abandoned, a silence sweeping over it as if life itself was put on mute. Ronon slept uncomfortably, his mind dwelling on his lost friends. Even in his resting state, he could not calm down, could not relax until his friends were safe beside him. He could picture it now, Teyla with her rare and treasured smile and John with his cheeky quirks and biting humour Turning on his back, Ronon's eyes shot open, his pupils slowly adjusting to the dim light of his quarters. Getting up slowly he walked to the window looking out over the almost black ocean. Ronon frowned at his reflection in the window and sighed. A sudden inhuman scream made him jump as the gate alarm filled the small space of his room. Grabbing his blaster he rushed towards the door heading for the gate room.

The gate room was alive with frantic panic. Marines rushed down the stairs taking their positions at the gate. Most scientists fled through the nearest exit while some stayed, watching motionless as the gate remained open, anticipation of what would come through over powering the need to be safe. The shield was up, the ice-like glaze that protected Atlantis from the dangers that lay on the other side.

"What's going on? " Ronon asked, his hand clenching his blaster tightly.

"There was a sudden gate activation, no IDC…" Chuck muttered.

"Can you shut it down?"

Chuck shook his head at Ronon's question. A large thud attracted Ronon's attention to the stargate. The shield glowed a great blue, alive with electricity. Another burst of energy made Ronon jump, as the gate shield burst. Green bursts of energy travelled through the gate as if intending to hit the people in the gate room.

"Get everyone out of here!" Ronon shouted, running towards the stairs and taking shelter behind a large pillar. Gunfire erupted from below him, as Marines fired blindly into the Stargate. The room flashed brightly as the white light seemed to blind Ronon. He fell to his knees, his vision blurry. Then suddenly silence reigned The gunfire had seized, and the shouts and chatter of the people around him had muted. Ronon looked around noticing bodies strewn across the floor. Starting towards the nearest one, he bent down and felt for a pulse, letting out the breath he had not realized he had been holding as he felt a steady pulse. Rising, Ronon went to the control panel, glancing at the controls with a confused expression. The gate still lay open with the shimmering portal making rippled patterns on the gate room floor. He frowned. Suddenly the loud, constant thud of shoes hitting the floor forced him to look up from the controls as his eyes widened. The soldiers they had encountered a few nights before marched through the gate, carrying weapons much like Wraith stunners. Ronon started for the door and peered round the coroner. The soldiers formed two lines with a large rectangular space left in between them.

"It clear" Ronon heard one of the soldiers guarding the gate say as the more people came through. A man dressed in a blood red robe over his shoulders and secured tightly with black armour plating emerged from the gate. The fabric that covered his torso was also black, specked with a red pattern. The man's arms were bare, showing off his muscular build. He wore long armoured trousers, the colour of the fabric matching that of his long black boots. A woman had come through the gate with him, hanging on to his arm. He proudly paraded her to his men, and she let him do it.

"Teyla?" Ronon whispered to himself, as the identity of the woman stuck him. She was dressed differently. The dress wrapped round her neck, and travelled down. Only covering her breasts, it curled above her belly, leaving her stomach bare and flowed to the floor. A small rip travelled down the side, showing off Teyla's leg. Another man came through the gate just as it shut down. He was dressed in a similar fashion to the other soldiers. The only difference was a tiny flashing device embedded in to his temple.

"Sheppard?" Ronon questioned. His two friends now stood with the enemy.
