Not where I originally intended the story to go...maybe I've been watching too many crime dramas. Don't worry, though, Michael will make a return at some point!

Disclaimer: I don't own SGA, the characters, etc.


Teyla is flipping through the crime scene photographs for what seems like the hundredth time. "How are things coming?" She looks up to find Sergeant Mitchell.

"Something is not right," she says.

"Yeah, about that." Cam drops the box that he's holding onto her desk, "Congrats."

"Sir?" she asks, confused.

Cam takes a seat in an empty chair. "You've just inherited the Replicators case."

"I do not understand."

"Back before Carter moved over to Narcotics, we were tracking a group of serial killers that we called Replicators."

"I am familiar with the case. They would hack into peoples' computers, personal information, everything. Sometimes they would impersonate close friends and relatives of their victims in order to gain access into their homes."

"Right."

"And this case, you believe it is related."

"I would say so."

"But they were all arrested and imprisoned. I believe some even faced the death sentence."

"All but one."

She picks up a file and reads the name. "Asuran, Oberoth"

"Codename, but it's the only one we've got." He stands, "Oh, and you've got two FBI agents on their way." He shrugs, "They were on the original case and I had to call them in. Their names are Daniel Jackson and Vala Mal Doran."
