A/N: Hey everyone! Hope you all are having a great week. Today is my son's birthday so I thought I would post this chapter I've been working on. I hope you like it. Hopefully in the next chapter I'm going to try and clear up some of the questions about the sisters and the stones. Happy Reading!!!

"Hey Doc? You almost done?" Danielle asked Carson.

Carson moved back from the microscope to look at Danielle. She was standing next to Teyla who was still lying on her gurney.

"Is my perfect patient being impatient?" Carson said with his arms crossed looking at Danielle sternly.

"Um...no." Danielle said sheepishly.

Carson laughed when he saw Danielle's face.

"You got ants in your pants las?" Carson said.

"Not really. Teyla and I just wanted to go and walk around for a bit." Danielle said.

"Some fresh air would be nice Carson. If you do not mind?" Teyla asked.

"No. That's fine. I'm still waiting for your test results so you both are free to leave. I'll call you when I get the results back." Carson said.

"Awesome. You're the best Doc." Danielle said.

"Thank you Carson." Teyla said.

"You're very welcome. Have fun on your walk." Carson said.

Teyla and Danielle both waived good-bye to Carson as they left the infirmary.

"So where are we walking to?" Danielle asked.

"We are walking to your room and then to mine." Teyla said as she started walking towards Danielle's quarters.

"Why?" Danielle asked still got getting where Teyla was going with this.

"We are going to retrieve our gifts and see how they work. I know that you are wanting to know just as much as I do how they work." Teyla said.

"Yes I do." Danielle said with a smile. Then a thought quickly came to Danielle and her smile faded.

"Oh no. You want to spar don't you?" Danielle said with a frown.

"Yes. I think that it will be a good way for us to learn about our weapons and possible discover more about ourselves." Teyla said.

"But, I really suck at sparing. I only sparred with you once when I first came here and you left me with so many bruises. Not to mention I screamed like a little girl every time you hit me. I had to soak in the tub everyday for a week. I really don'twant to go through that again." Danielle said.

Teyla laughed at Danielle who had her face all scrunched up.

"I promise it will not be as bad as that time. I will take my time. I promise." Teyla said.

Danielle rolled her eyes.

"Oh...ok. Just as long as you are gentle." Danielle said as they reached her room.

"I will treat you the same as I treat John when we spar." Teyla said with a wicked smile.

"Oh shit. Then I'm really screwed. I've seen how "gentle" you are with the Colonel and that is not gentle. That's an old fashion ass whoopin'" Danielle said.

Danielle grabbed the black box that contained her Kiru-Khans off her desk and headed back towards the door where Teyla stood.

"Don't be such a child Danielle. You will be fine." Teyla said.

"Alright, I guess. I still think I'm this will be nothing but an ass kicking session and my ass will be the one get kicked. A lot." Danielle said as they both headed out of her quarters towards Teyla's room.

*****************************************************************************************************************************************************

Ten minutes later Teyla and Danielle were in the gym sparring. Danielle had already landed on her ass three times from Teyla's "gentle attacks."

Danielle looked at Teyla who had not broken a sweat while they sparred. Danielle on the other hand, was sweating as if she had run a mile in the desert. No matter how Danielle tried to anticipate Teyla's attacks she could never see the attack coming.

Once again they both took a fighting stance to begin again. Teyla looked at Danielle and was very impressed that no matter how many times Danielle fell she would get back up ,make a joke, then make herself ready for more. Most of the military personnel that Teyla's had trained with would have given up by now or made some of kind of excuse as to why they would have a to leave the sparring session early. Ronon and John were the only ones who would stay. Ronon for the sheer fun of sparing and John she long suspected only went through the punishment of sparing to be close to her.

"Are you ready?" Teyla asked as she made herself ready.

"Sure. The floor and I are becoming every intimate. We've exchanged phone numbers and even made plans for a first date." Danielle joked.

Teyla raised her eyebrow and Danielle waived her off telling it was a joke. Danielle let Teyla know she was ready by bowing. Teyla bowed back and they began again.

Teyla didn't immediately move in like she had done before. She circled Danielle and watched her. She noticed that Danielle was not very comfortable with the weapons that she was holding. Teyla had noticed that as soon as Danielle would start to feel comfortable with her movements something would make her loose her concentration allowing Teyla to take advantage.

Danielle watched Teyla and began to feel a little jealous that Teyla was somehow able to make her movements look effortless. Even with these new weapons she made it seem like she had been using them her whole life. Every time Danielle would start to feel as if she was getting the hang of her Kiru-Khans she would just as quickly lose it. It was starting to get frustrating. Danielle was quickly brought out of her thoughts when she finally notice Teyla coming towards her. Before Danielle could even defend herself Teyla had manage to take her down in three swifts moves. To Danielle it seemed like Teyla had become faster then she was a moment ago.

Teyla looked down at Danielle who once again was on the floor. She didn't even realize that she had taken Danielle down so fast. The moves that she used were not familiar to her but somehow her body knew them. Like it were a forgotten reflex. Teyla walked over to Danielle and helped her off the floor.

"Come, let us rest for a moment." Teyla said reaching down and lifting Danielle off the floor.

"You don't have to tell me twice." Danielle said taking Teyla's hand.

"Where did that move come from? I didn't even see you coming." Danielle said as she walked over to the bench that was closest to the window in the gym.

"I do not know. I have never done that before but it felt like I had done it a million times before. Perhaps it has something to do with the sisters." Teyla said.

"Maybe." Danielle said looking at her Kiru-Khans.

As she looked at the Kiru-Khans in her hand Danielle felt that little tickle in the back of her head again. Danielle closed her eyes and concentrated on the feeling she felt.

Teyla looked down at Danielle and saw her twirling her Kiru-Khans in her hands. She watched as Danielle handled the weapons like she was an expert. Teyla was about to call out to Danielle when she saw her get up from her seat and start to move towards the middle of the room.

Teyla stood silent and watched as Danielle started moving around from one fighting stance to another. She couldn't believe how fluid Danielle looked while switching her Kiru-Khans from one hand to the other. Teyla noticed that Danielle's eyes were closed as she moved.

"She must be in contact with Niya. Maybe I can try to make contact and get some answers." Teyla said to herself.

"Niya?" Teyla called but got no answer.

"Niya, are you there?" Teyla asked but still received no answer.

Teyla started to walk over to Danielle and when she tried to reach out with her hand Danielle suddenly made a move towards Teyla with her Kiru-Khans. Teyla quickly defended herself.

"Niya, is that you?" Teyla asked.

Danielle opened her eyes and smiled at Teyla.

"It's me. Don't worry. No possessions. Didn't mean to make you scare you. I just didn't want to interrupt this feeling that I was getting." Danielle said.

"I thought you were Niya for a second when you didn't answer. I was going to try and contact her and try to get some answers for us." Teyla said.

"Nope. Just me. I just kept having this...I don't know... tickle...in the back of my head. It wouldn't go away until I concentrated on it. Then I felt this pop in my brain like a bubble and then I started twirling these things like a ninja warrior. I heard you coming and I decided to try my new skills out. The only thing I'm wondering is why it took me so long to get this feeling but you caught on right away without even trying." Danielle said.

"It is possible my dealings with Wraith minds has made my mind more open and receptive to the images and thoughts I'm receiving from Maihari." Teyla said.

"Sounds plausible to me. I'm sure it also has to do with mental discipline which I can tell you I have a short supply of. My attention span is about three minutes long. Back home, I can barely balance my checkbook. I think you have to have some kind of degree to make it balance out correctly." Danielle said shaking her head.

"I have heard John speak often of how difficult that was when he was on earth. He too said that it can be a "pain in the ass." Teyla said with a giggle.

Teyla watched as Danielle walked over to back over to the bench where they were just siting. Danielle took off her uniform shirt and threw it on the bench. She also took off her boots and then her socks which she placed inside of her boots. Danielle was now only wearing her black t-shirt and her bdu's.

Danielle walked back over to Teyla who was still trying to see if something was wrong with Danielle.

"Don't worry. It's still me. I just needed to get rid of some stuff to better achieve my goal." Danielle said.

"What goal is that?" Teyla asked with a raised eyebrow.

"To keep my ass off the floor." Danielle said taking her fighting stance.

Teyla laughed as she took her fighting stance and touched her Shankara Rod to Danielle's Kiru-Khan.

"At first I thought you were going to say to put me on the floor." Teyla said.

"Baby steps Teyla. Baby steps." Danielle said.

"Shall we begin?" Teyla asked.

"Let's." Danielle said.

Teyla bowed her head to Danielle who also bowed her head to Teyla. Once there eyes met they began.

Teyla came at Danielle with her Shankara Rods again with a surprising speed. Danielle almost didn't see Teyla coming towards her. At the last minute she was able to block Teyla's blow and duck. Danielle was able to spin away from Teyla but almost lost her footing. Once she regained it she saw Teyla out of the corner of her eye heading towards her ready to strike. Danielle sprung up from her position and when Teyla went to strike Danielle's side, Danielle used her Kiru-Khan prongs and caught Teyla's Shakara Rod making it hard for Teyla to move her Rods. Teyla twisted herself around Danielle and was able to free her Rods from Danielle's Kiru-Khans.

Teyla backed away from Danielle to get her barrings. She circled Danielle again and watched her movements. Teyla noted that Danielle was looking more confident with each movement. Teyla knew she shouldn't but she was actually enjoying herself. She always liked fighting with John and Ronon. They always proved to be worthy challenges but to find her match in a women was more rewarding then she could ever imagine. While Teyla watched Danielle for her next move another thought creeped up in Teyla's mind. One she thought she dealt with long ago.

All Teyla's life she had felt alone. Yes, she had been surround by her people and felt their love, and the love of her parents, but being an only child did make her feel alone. She remembered watching the other child play with their siblings and hoping that one day, she too would share in the joy of sharing her life with a younger brother or sister. She wanted to show them everything she learned and let them know they would always be safe because she would protect them from everything and everyone that would bring them harm. It would also guarantee that if anything were to happen to her that the name Emmagon would survive. The day her mother was taken by the Wraith her dreams of sharing her world and her line continuing were crushed. Having Torren gave her some of the peace she had long sought after. He gave her the comfort that her line would continue and that she would be able to share all her knowledge and love with someone.

These recent events involving Danielle and the sisters is when Teyla realized that the hole in her heart had not been totally filled by Torren. It was not until this very moment with Danielle did she truly feel like the ancestors had blessed her with the sibling she had waited her whole life for. Although Teyla knew she and Danielle were not blood related, the feeling inside of her told her they were closer than that. This bond she was feeling had crossed space and time to find them. It touched Teyla's heart and her heart was telling that the women in front her was her sister. Now and forever. As Teyla still circled Danielle she smiled at the thoughts she was having.

Danielle noticed the smile on Teyla's face and wondered what was making Teyla smile.

"Penny for your thoughts?" Danielle asked.

"Ask me again another day."Teyla said.

"Cryptic, but ok. I'm having fun you want to continue this?" Danielle asked.

"I am too and yes I wish to continue." Teyla said.

"Good, because here I come." Danielle said as she charged forward.

Teyla watched as Danielle charged forward with a smile on her face and despite herself she smiled too. She was enjoying sparring with her sister.

*****************************************************************************************************************************************************

Carson was sitting at his desk looking over the blood work from Teyla and Danielle. The results from the test said that they were both in perfect health but something kept nagging at him. He didn't trust what he was seeing. Something kept telling him that he needed to look at this from another angle. Carson knew that there was something that he was missing he just needed a lucky break to tell him his hunch was right.

Carson put the result down on the desk and rubbed his eyes. If he looked at the paper any longer he would burn a hole through it. He looked at his watch and saw that it had been over an hour since Teyla and Danielle had gone for there walk. Carson was just about to call them back to give them their results when one of the med techs walked in.

"Dr. Beckett you have visitors." the tech said.

"Thank you love." Carson said.

Carson stepped out of his office and saw Colonel Carter standing with Sheppard,Colar, and another male that Carson didn't recognize. Carson noticed that male was wearing the same attire the ancients used to wear. He walked over to where they were all standing.

"Well hullo everyone. What brings you here?" Carson asked.

"Well Carson, we have a visitor that would like to speak to Teyla and Danielle. This is Councilman Tollara from Naharra. He has come her to help answer some questions about the sisters and the stones for Teyla and Danielle." Carter said.

"Well it's a pleasure to meet you sir." Carson said shaking Tollara's hand.

"The pleasure is all mine Doctor. I understand that you also helped in Colar's recovery. As I have explained to Colonel Carter and Sheppard my people will be having a feast to celebrate Colar's and the descendants return. We will also be celebrating your people's bravery. Please say you will attend." Tollara said.

Carson felt his cheeks redden. He was a very modest man and didn't believe in all the fan fair for doing your job well. You do it and you move on. That was the way he was taught. Carson really wanted to turn down the invitation but he knew he couldn't.

"I would be honored sir. Thank you." Carson said.

"Good. Now I understand the descendants are here somewhere. I would like to see them if possible?" Tollara asked.

"Unfortunately sir, they went for a walk an hour ago. I was just about to call them back to get the results of their blood work." Carson said.

"I bet I know where they are." John smirked. He knew that Teyla would want to blow some steam off after sitting in the infirmary and what better place to do that than the gym.

Just as John was about to call Teyla he was interrupted by Rodney.

"McKay to Sheppard."

"Go ahead Rodney."

"I'm getting some massive energy readings. At first it was small but now the energy level is building." Rodney said looking at the readings from his computer in his lab.

"Where is it coming from Rodney?" Sheppard asked.

"Unknown what the source of the energy is but it's coming from the gym area. I have never seen an energy pattern like this before." Rodney said.

"Shit. Any life signs in there Rodney?" John said. He was hoping that Teyla and Campbell were no where near what every was going on.

"Can't tell. Look Sheppard, you better get everyone off that level. I put a level 10 force field around the gym doors but I don't think that is going to hold for long and if it goes.." Rodney stopped in mid sentence.

"I get it Rodney. Don't go all gloom and doom on me yet. Keep me updated. Sheppard out."

"Sheppard to Lorne."

"Lorne here."

"You copy that traffic Lorne?"

"Yes sir. I got marines clearing out all personnel from that level at this time." Lorne said.

"Lorne, have you seen Teyla or Campbell?" John asked.

"No. Why?" Lorne asked.

Evan got a sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach when Sheppard asked if he heard from Danielle. He hadn't spoken to her since breakfast. He had been catching up on paperwork all morning and meant to check on her but never got a chance to. He hoped that she wasn't anywhere near what ever was going.

"Carson said they went for a walk an hour ago and now no one has heard from them. If I know Teyla, she most likely dragged Campbell with her to the gym. I will try and contact them while you continue the evac." John said.

"Yes, sir. Lorne out." Lorne said.

Sheppard needed to make sure that Teyla and Campbell were out of danger. He hoped that at least one of them would answer so he could prove his suspicions wrong that Teyla and Danielle were not in the gym.

"Sheppard to Teyla."

John got no response.

"Sheppard to Campbell."

Still answer no answer.

"Dammit." John said low under his breath.

Sheppard walked over to Carter who also had been monitoring all the traffic on the radio.

"John, go do what you need to do while I get the councilman and Colar to safety." Carter said.

"Wait. If this has anything to do with the descendants I wish to go with you." Tollara said.

"I don't think that would be a good idea Councilman. We are not sure if this has anything to do with them or not. I would like to air on the side of caution and have you go with Colonel Carter to a safe location." John said.

"Colonel, I appreciate your concern but I believe and I think you do as well that this has everything to do with the descendants. If I'm right then you will need my services." Tollara said.

"Colonel?" John said looking to Carter for some help here.

Sam weighed all the options in her head and made a decision that she hoped she wouldn't regret later.

"Let him go. But Councilman, please understand that Colonel Sheppard is in charge. If he tells you to leave the area then you must obey his commands." Carter said.

"I understand. Colar please go with Colonel Carter." Tollara said.

"Yes, Councilman." Colar said.

"I'm ready when you are Colonel." Tollara said.

"Good. Carson?" John called over to the doctor.

"Don't worry lad. We'll be ready if all hell breaks loose." Carson said as his staff was making preparations for possible causalities.

"Sheppard to Ronon."

"Heading towards the armory now." Ronon said.

"Good. Councilman you're with me." John said as he was heading out of the infirmary with Tollara towards the armory.

*****************************************************************************************************************************************************

A few moments later John arrived with Ronon and Tollara and all three where making there way over to the gym.

Lorne and the other marines were waiting around the corner from the gym for Sheppard to arrive.

"Colonel, we've got everyone evacuated off this level, the one above, and the one below it. I've got men stationed at every access point to this level. So, who ever or whatever it is ain't getting off this floor without a fight. Anyone find Teyla or Danielle?" Lorne asked as they made their way down the hall towards the gym.

"No. Nothing. Major, this is Councilman Tollara. The councilman thinks and I have to admit I do as well that what ever is going on in the gym has everything to do with Teyla and Campbell." John said.

"I hope your wrong sir." Lorne said softly.

"Me too." John said.

"McKay to Sheppard."

"Go ahead Rodney."

"I have Dr. Sona in the lab with me and she recognizes the energy pattern. It's the same as the shield on her world." Rodney said.

"So this does have something to do with Teyla and Danielle." John said.

"I wouldn't be surprised. It seems like everything weird lately has been connected to them." Rodney said.

Suddenly there was beeping in the back round coming from Rodney's computer.

"Rodney, what's that beeping? Loud beeping is never good." John said.

"That's because it's not good. We just got another spike in the energy level. It's huge. I don't know how much longer the force field is going to hold the energy back. So if it is the weird sisters, you need to find out soon and get them to stop what ever they are doing before they take that whole floor out." Rodney said.

"Easier said than done Rodney." John said.

"Well that's why they pay you the big bucks." Rodney said.

Before John could reply to Rodney there was a loud noise coming from the gym area.

"What the hell was that?" John asked.

Lorne was asking one the marines and his face changed when he got the answer.

"That would be the door buckling." Lorne said.

"Rodney please tell me that you still have that force field holding." John said.

"It's holding for now. I'm diverting a lot of power to keep that energy back. But in 5 minutes it won't matter." Rodney said.

"Why?" John asked not really wanting to hear the answer.

"Because that door and everything on that floor is going to be blown to kingdom come. So do what you do best and save everyone at the last minute." Rodney said.

"I'll try Rodney. Keep the channel open." John said.

"Copy." Rodney said.

John turned to Councilman Tollara who had been trying to his best to listen to what was going on.

"Councilman, this is your last chance to turn back." John said.

"I understand Colonel. All the same, I will share the risk with you and your men." Tollara said.

"Alright then. Lorne, your with me. Ronon, you and the Councilman hang back until I call you both. Lorne and I will assess the situation then signal you forward." John said.

Ronon didn't like not being right up there with John but he reluctantly agreed and gave John a nod and a grunt that he understood and was not going to fight John.

As soon as John saw that we wasn't going to get an argument from Ronon he signal to Lorne to follow him towards the gym.
