Chapter five
Almost two days later, the Zeus dropped out of hyperspace directly above the Tria. The Tria was an ancient warship that had gotten damaged in the war with the wraith 10.000 years ago. She had been travelling through the void with a course for earth at .99 speed of light, when the Daedalus met her. The ancients had then re-claimed Atlantis and sent the expedition home. But very soon the asurans attacked and the expedition got Atlantis back.
"Scan's complete. Life support is working at minimum, the Hyperdrive is offline, main power is offline, shields are working but they are not active, and their weapons are working" Lund reported.
"Good. Set up a team of scientists. I want you to lead them Major. Take a ZPM. We'll beam you over." Hagberg said
"Okey sir. I'll contact you when we get main power online." Lund said and he and a team of engineers beamed over to the Tria.
It took two hours for the Tria to get main power back online. More scientists and engineers beamed over and helped repairing the Hyperdrive and to help them get power to the shields and weapons. But the Zeus picked up that they weren't the only ones thereā¦
"Sir, I'm picking up a ship dropping out of hyperspace." Major Larsson reported. "It's.. It's the Independence" Larsson said
"Those damn Americans must have noticed us being here with an ancient warship. Open a channel." Hagberg ordered.
"This is Colonel William Hagberg commanding officer of the Swedish ship Zeus. Can we be of assistance?"
"This is Colonel Lionel Talbot of the united states air force vessel Independence. We saw your ship on our sensors and we got worried that your Hyperdrive had burned out. What are you doing in the middle of the galactic void any way?" Talbot asked.
"Our Hyperdrive has not burned out Colonel. I'm sorry but I can't tell what we're here about, it's classified." Hagberg said.
"Classified? How much more classified can it get when you're commanding an intergalactic ships?" Talbot joked.
"Colonel, I know. But my government has ordered me not to say. Are you on the way back from Atlantis?"
"Yeah. Atlantis was actually under attack from the wraith last week. We carried some new shield generators for them." Talbot said.
"Oh, okey. Here's just a heads up if you haven't already received the news; The Ori has invaded again. The Armageddon was destroyed with all hands but she managed to take out three of the motherships. But there's still 17 motherships some where in the Milky Way.. The other American ships did a join attack on that fleet. Don't know how it went.." Hagberg said.
"Yeah, I heard about that.. From what I've heard, the Prometheus was destroyed. She wasn't even battle ready, but she was rushed." Talbot said.
"Wow.. Both ships that's been named Prometheus has been destroyed. And both in battle with the Ori.. Well, we have a lot to do here, and I guess that you should be on your way.. Hagberg out!" And the com cut. Seconds after that, the Independence entered hyperspace.
"Colonel, major Lund is radioing in from the Tria" Larsson said.
"Sir. We've found another ZPM here. We're beaming it to you now. Lund out" The ZPM beamed aboard. A few hours after that communication, the Tria was hyperspace capable, and both ships entered hyperspace for P1X-279.
