"A Galaxy in chaos!, the civil war rages across the Galaxy, Master Yaddle of the Jedi Council has vanished on a planet in the Outer Rim, the 104th the 327th and the 30th have gone to this world to help rescue the lost Jedi Master!".
Marshal Commander CC1010 "Fox" resisted the urge to sigh deeply, Colonel Kendal Ozzel was an idiot, the man had no idea what he was doing, it made him very grateful that they were not alone he almost shuddered at the idea of having to deal with this whole situation with only Kendal Ozzel to lead the way.
The ship shook again as the Separatist destroyer pounded their Assault ship, Fox wanted to yell orders at the crew to fight back but he knew that the crew would not listen to a Clone, nor would Ozzel, the ship shook violently again the alarms echoing around the ship as the ship took damage, Fox could see Ozzel was on the verge of panicking.
Fox stumbled over to a monitor he could see the ship was too badly damaged to last, they would have to abandoned ship.
"Engines destroyed Colonel!" Yelled Fox over the alarms, Ozzel looked over to the Clone, why he had to have a squad of the meat droids on his ship he did not know, yet the words penetrated his brain "Engines destroyed" Ozzel blinked several times he had to get off the ship, he had a career that would gain him a lot of power, even though his patron Sheev Palpatine was dead, he was too important to die on some Outer Rim planet, looking for some lost Jedi Master.
Before he fled the bridge he ordered the crew to the escape pods, soon he was followed by the rest of the bridge crew, Fox shook his head he stumbled over to the varies consoles, there was little control left but he could steer the ship away from the rest of the fleet, he commend the nearest Venerator "Ships badly damaged, crew is heading towards escape pods, I'm steering the ship towards the planet, as far as I can see there is no major city's, or large population to worry about" Said Fox calmly as he wrestled with the dyeing ship to head toward the planet.
"Commander Fox this is the Triumphant, can you get to an escape pod?" Came General Plo Koon's warm calming voice over the com.
Fox finished wrestling with the ship, "Yes sir, just finished setting course for the main continent, should be a fairly impressive explosion" Said Fox.
Master Koon chuckled warmly "Indeed Commander according to our scans the ship should enter the atmosphere in up to ten minutes, you must hurry" He said .
"Yes Sir, if possible when we reach the planet my Guard and I can look for General Yaddle sir" Said Fox.
"I know Yaddle would not wish for you to endanger yourselves, be careful" Said Plo.
"Yes sir Fox out" He said.
Just at the moment the com began smoking, Fox sighed he looked at the forward window of the ship, the forward window was full of the green, blue planet.
The ship shook, Fox started making his way to the escape pods and his men.
Fox stumbled threw the corridor, he stopped as he saw his troopers standing in a corridor "In the escape pod troopers!" Yelled Fox over the alarm and twisting metal of the ship.
"There are no escape pods sir their all gone" Said a trooper, Fox blinked then looked at where the escape pod should be, the trooper was right there was no escape pods left, "Dank Farrik" Growled Fox he had to wonder if this was done deliberately or if the fact that the whole crew had used the pods and there simply no pods left for the handful of Coruscant Guard.
The ship shook violently they had entered the upper atmosphere, "The hanger bay, we may be able take a Gunship or a transport off ship!" Said Fox.
A few minutes later the ship was violently shaking as the ship ploughed threw the upper atmosphere of the planet.
Fox and his troopers stumbled threw the hanger, Star fighter's slammed into the hanger walls as did several Gunships, Fox frowned as he saw that there were not any ships still in one piece, "Sir!" Yelled Rys, Fox looked to where he was pointing.
Fox could see one lone Gunship, inside he could several Astromech's "Come on!" He yelled, he and his troopers run over to the it, as he approached the Gunship he could see that the mag clamps were in place holding the ship in place.
"Thire in the cockpit, get us out here ASPA!" Ordered Fox as he scrambled on to the Gunship he looked at the Droids who were in the Gunship, after a few short moments a flat headed Astromech rolled forward "I am R5-D4 what is happening sir?" Asked the red and white Astromech "The ship was attacked by Separatists, we've been badly damaged we're crashing, we're in the atmosphere" Answered Fox he watched as a Astromech rolled over to a panel "Thire get us out of here!" Ordered Fox as the ship shook violently "I'm trying sir!, the mag locks are not retracting!" Yelled Thire as he tried to disengage the mag locks, Fox saw the Droid interface with the Gunship the diagnose arm twisted back and forth after a few tense moments the mag lock retracted "Hold on! Its going to get bumpy!" Yelled Thire as the ship lurched to the side, before the Gunship lifted off the hanger floor.
Thire fired a missile at the over head hanger hatch, the Gunship followed not far behind the missile, soon the hatch was blown open.
Fox heard the Astromech's scream as the Gunship flew threw the blown out hatch, the whole ship shook violently as they were battered by the super heated atmosphere.
Several hours earlier.
Colonel Jack O'Neill listened to the latest big bad drone on about how they would pay for their insolence towards their God.
Jack had to wonder why this minor Goa'uld bothered with this planet, from what their allies the Tok'ra told them the planet was no of great value and the Goa'uld in charge wasn't even a System Lord he was a underling of a underling several times over, yet like so many of the Goa'uld he seemed to have his own Jaffa, he half listened to the Goa'uld went on about something or other he glanced at Teal'c who was just staring at the Goa'uld in pure defiance.
Then the Goa'uld said something that caught his attention 'Fleet what fleet' O'Neill looked from the Goa'uld then back at Teal'c who had his eyebrow raised as high as possible "Excuse me Fleet, what fleet we don't have a fleet" Said Jack, the Goa'uld gave a laugh "You think I'm a fool, a fleet arrives in orbit of my world, not long after your team arrive. I think that's highly unlikely, I know you and the Tok'ra are allied together, but you will not succeed, in time you will tell me your plans, take them!" Ordered the Goa'uld, the Jaffa dragged them away.
Soon SG1 was thrown in to a cell, after several minutes of checking for any kind of escape routes they meet in the middle of the cell "So what's this about a fleet?" Asked Daniel, Jack shook his head "No idea, you Teal'c?" He asked the tall Jaffa "No Jack O'Neill I do not know of a fleet, it could be a rival Goa'uld" Said Teal'c, O'Neill looked at Sam who shook her head "I don't know sir" She said.
Jack sighed deeply, he ran a hand threw his salt and pepper hair, he had to hope that they were rescued by a SG team before the Goa'uld got torture happy or the mysterious fleet decided to start taking pot shot's at the palace.
A few hours late.
The palace shuddered as the mysterious fleet seemed to notice the large structure though it seemed according to Carter that it could be that the fleet was not firing at the palace and may be engaging with the local Goa'uld fleet and the palace was simple sitting in the cross fire.
She did warn that by what she was hearing from the distant explosions that if the palace took a direct hit they wouldn't even know, as they would be vaporised instantly.
After a short time the door opened and a Jaffa entered, Teal'c stood and clasped the arm of the Jaffa "Da'loc, Brother" Said Teal'c the Jaffa nodded "Forgive me for not coming sooner, but the fleet in orbit is fighting another fleet that arrived a few hours after you arrived, the False God's ships were destroyed in moment's, the ships are very powerful" Said the Jaffa, Jack notice that the Jaffa looked very nervous.
"So where's the Goa'uld?" Asked Jack, Da'loc looked at him, he huffed "He fled when his ships were destroyed, he has abandoned the planet many of Jaffa followed the False God, a few Brothers who refused to follow were executed, I was in the back waiting to slip away to realise you and the few other prisoners, I could not save them, we must hurry" He said.
The cell doors were opened to free the few locals who had been taken prisoner, Da'loc told Jack that the small village was the only settlement on the planet it had been all but levelled by the Goa'uld because he thought the village spoiled his view of the valley that it had sat in.
Jack shuddered to think what the Goa'uld had intended for the poor survivors, though to Jack the locals seemed more worried about some one else.
A door opened no one stepped out that Jack could see "Oh thank the High Spirits you are unharmed Master Yaddle" Called the village leader Jack raised an eyebrow he noticed that the leader was looking down Jack followed his line of sight, he blinked several times he was sure with out even looking that Teal'c's eyebrow was almost crawling off his face at the sight before them.
Standing there in the door way stood a being around 2ft tall, in a simple tan and light brown robe but it wasn't the robe or the height that caused the double blinking and eyebrow raising it was the fact that Master Yaddle was light green, had three finger's on each hand and had long pointed ears, she smiled "I am unharmed Elder Wal, we must leave as soon as possible there is great danger" She said.
Jack blinked once more "Hi, yeah we better get out of here, the ships in orbit seem to be knocking lumps out of each other and we are right in the middle" Said Jack, Yaddle nodded "Yes we must hurry, we do not have much time" She as she stepped out and began running down the corridor as fast as she could.
A ten minutes later Jack and every one were half a mile away from the palace, when suddenly the palace erupted in a massive ball of fire as it took a direct hit.
The hits to the planet were increasing, Jack was beginning to doubt that the planet would be very liveable once the battle was over.
Suddenly a louder noise was heard, a sonic boom, every one covered their ears to instinctively protect their ears from the loud noise "Jack!" Called Daniel looking up at the sky, Jack looked in the same direction "Damn it!" Said Jack as he saw what could only be described as a very large ship falling out of the sky flames licking what was left of the engines and the hull of the dagger shaped ship.
"Run!" Yelled Jack though he suspected that when the ship hit they wouldn't be able to get out of the blast range.
"Where's the Gate!" Yelled Jack as he ran, Da'loc looked at him "Too far we will never make it in time" He said though he did point in the direction, he looked at Carter who shook her head they could all hear the roar as the ship was pulled down to the planet by gravity, they could all hear the ship exploded from the inside.
"O'Neill!" Yelled Teal'c, Jake turned he stared in horror as the ship had reached the planet, there was a blinding light then the loudest sound Jack had ever heard, hands covered ears once more.
"Are there any caves near by!" Called Jack to Elder Wal, the Elder blinked he shook his head before he spoke "There are caves but we will not reach them, it is a days journey at least" He said Jack frowned he looked at the horizon, hot air hit them as the first shock wave hit, but the one behind it that would be the killer and it was a few short minutes away, that one would also cause global wild fires, the air its itself would be on fire.
There was nothing they could do, Jack looked down at the small green alien, she smiled up at him "Do not worry, all will be well" She said as she stood there her hands tucked into the sleeves of her robes.
Jack blinked he opened his mouth to tell her that they were screwed, when suddenly small ship flew over head and landed in the small clearing, the side opened and a man wearing red and white armour yelled at them "Get a Kriff in, that shock wave will be here in two minutes!" He yelled at them.
"Coming Commander, Come Colonel O'Neill" She said as she ran towards the ship and bounced in.
Jack looked at the horizon the shock wave was getting closer "You heard them lets go!" He yelled as he and every one else ran towards the ship and climbed in the second Jack's second foot left the ground the ship lifted off Teal'c grabbed hold of Jack tac vest and pulled him in, the side door slide shut.
"Hold on!" Yelled a voice as one the other red and white armoured men held the hand holds Yaddle held on to the shin guard of one of the armoured men.
Suddenly the ship shook violently as the second shock wave hit, Jack held on to the hand holds, he stared at the waist high robots beeped and screamed? He shook his head, he hoped that the ship could take the heat and pressure.
Slowly the shaking stopped, Jack realised a breath he didn't realised he was holding.
After a few minutes, a deep voice came over the speakers "Commander Fox have you recovered any survivors from the planet, we are picking up planet wide fires" Said the voice, "Yes sir we have found a number of survivors as well as General Yaddle" Said one of the armoured men though Jack could say which one had spoken.
"You are cleared to land in the hanger a medical team is standing by in case of any injury's well done to you and your Guard" Said the warm voice "Just doing our duty sir" Said Fox.
Several minutes later the ship landed, the side door slide open every one climbed out, Jack's mouth fell open, they were now in a much larger ship, Jack could only compare it to the Super battleships the navy had but much, much bigger, he managed to close his mouth as an alien came forward wearing a dark brown robe, following close behind was a man wearing white and grey armour, he had noticeable scar over his right eye, the eye its self was white.
"Welcome friends, I am Jedi Master Plo Koon, this is my second Commander Wolffe of the 104th of the Wolf pack" He said fondly, Wolffe gave a nod he came to a halt and stood at parade rest behind Plo Koon.
Jack nodded before answering "Colonel Jack O'Neill, Major Samantha Carter, Doctor Daniel Jackson and Teal'c" Said Jack followed by the village elder introducing the survivors of his village.
Plo Koon gave a slight bow, "Droids? I assume from the Assault ship?" He asked he sounded almost amused "Yes sir they were on board the Gunship, I believe they were trying to use the Gunship to escape the ship" Said Fox as he looked at the Droids as they made their way off the Gun ship "Very industrious of them" Chuckled Plo Koon he then looked down at Master Yaddle who smiled up at him "I am pleased to see you unharmed Master Yaddle, I see a new enemy has arrived though at the moment they seem less of a threat then the Separatists" Said Plo Koon, Yaddle shook her head her brown hair swung back and fourth "No they are as much a threat as the separatists if not more, though Colonel O'Neill and his people can tell us more of the Goa'uld as they are called" She said.
O'Neill blinked and nodded "Yeah a big threat" He said Wolffe raised his scared eyebrow as well as Teal'c on a real good day "A threat? We blew up their ships in minutes, their shields couldn't even with stand a shot of our turbolasers" Grunted Wolffe, Jack looked at the obvious battle harden veteran.
"But you were having a massive battle" Said Carter, Wolffe looked at her then answered "The Seppies turned up" Said Wolffe simply.
Jack felt a stone settle in his stomach, if these guys ships made short work of the Goa'uld what chance did Earth have ageist the Separatists, it they ever turned up, and they were on the same level as the guys that had saved them.
Plo Koon put his four fingered hand's into his robe sleeves, "We had best talk to the Jedi High Council, I will request Knight Secura to come aboard so that we can talk to the council together" He said Yaddle nodded.
"Sir, Colonel Ozzel?" Asked Fox, Plo Koon looked at him "The Colonel is well he and what is left of the 30th is limping towards to nearest repair yard, though there will of course be an enquire as to the loss of the Assault ship to a much smaller force" Said Plo, Fox sighed deeply "Yes sir of course sir" Said Fox sounded defeated for some reason.
Plo placed a large hand on his shoulder "I personally spoke to the Chancellor her self and gave a full report placing the blame squarely on Colonel Ozzel shoulders, he does not have any friends among those who will decide his fate, there is no blame on you Commander Fox" He said.
"Thank You General" Said Fox.
Jack for few moments forgot how to breath Fox and the rest of his men took off their helmets to reveal identical faces, Fox had several nasty scars over his face as well as a scar over his left eye that looked near identical to Wolffe's he even had a white eye, the other men ether had scars, tattoos or different coloured hair but physically they were identical.
"You guys brothers?" Asked Jack once he remembered that he needed air to breath, the men looked at him "We're Clones you got a problem with Clones Sir" Said Wolffe in as near a respectful growl that Jack had ever heard.
"No, no problem" Said Jack.
"If I may how many of you are there" Asked Carter her scientist brain going into over drive, "About one million or so" Answered Fox casually Carter stared, to Jack she gone into what he called blue screen mode as too much info had hit her brains hard drive.
Half hour later once the survivors were shown to their temporary quarters till they got to a refugee camp several systems away.
Jack and his team entered a room that had a table in its centre as well as several very large screens along the wall.
Plo and Yaddle stood around the edges of the table Yaddle smiled at two Clones from Plo's ship who placed a rise platform, she then jumped up onto it.
The door to the room slide opened to reveal a tall blue skinned women with two head tales and cones for ears wearing a tight crop top with one sleeve as well tight leather trousers with belt and heavy looking boots, on her belt hung a silver looking tube.
Behind her walked a Clone, his armour was white and a yellow he had a Kama on, his helmet under his arm, on his face he had golden tattoos on both checks as well as close cropped hair, though his armour was a different colour it was the same as Fox's.
"I was wondering guy's your armours the same but different colours yet Wolffe's is different it looks the same as the others" Said Jack hoping he didn't sound stupid to these potential new allies.
"Commander Wolffe is a just a commander, where as Commander's Fox and Bly are Marshall Commanders" Said Plo.
Jack looked at the two men who in theory out ranked him, though he got the feeling that if he started calling them "sir" it would make them uncomfortable.
"Ok thanks" Said Jack.
Soon the tall blue skinned woman was introduced her name was Aayla Secura a Jedi Knight in command of the 327th Star Corps.
"Shall we begin" She said in a very French sounding accent that Jack knew would fascinate Daniel no end.
"Of course now that we are all here" Said Plo, he pressed the table several lights activated around the table, a few seconds later the table had ten people around it all were blue and transparent, one was the same race a Yaddle though looked much older.
Jack could see that at least two of the people looked Human though all the others were not Human, Jack was sure one looked like a snake with arms and a mass of hair piled on top of their head, another one had horns, another had big black eyes and dozens of head tails.
"So you are from another Galaxy?" Said the bald human male who Jack thought could be black, Jack nodded then answered "Yes we are, we think this Galaxy is what we call a Dwarf galaxy" He said "Here you are why" Said the one called Yoda, Jack had to blink before he answered "We're explorers, the Stargate brought us here, the gate address was selected by a computer" He said the bald guy called Windu spoke "Why do you explore?" He asked Jack gave a shrugged "We're a curious bunch" Said Jack "It gets us in to trouble sometimes" Jack admitted.
Windu raised a brow "With these Goa'uld?" He asked Jack sighed and nodded "Yeah, but they started it, their parasites, they create nothing they take and then say they made it, they like to think they are Gods" Said Jack.
"You call these being parasites, why is that?" Askes Kenobi, Jack looked at him "They are, they need hosts when they take the host and utterly suppress the hosts mind, when they tire of the host, they'll leave the host excreting a poison killing the hoist, they also created the Jaffa a slave race to carry the Goa'uld while they are too young to take host, the only up side for the Jaffa is it extends their life makes them stronger, down side it strips them of an immune system they can't live with out the Goa'uld symbionts" Said Jack, Kenobi stroked his beard he looked deep in thought.
"The Chancellor informed of this she should be" Said Yoda as he looked at Windu who in turn looked at the others in the meeting they all nodded.
Windu looked at Colonel O'Neill "Colonel can you and your team come to Coruscant to meet with Chancellor Mothma?" He asked Jack looked his team Daniel was almost vibrating with excitement, Carter was not far behind at the thought of seeing brand new technology to get her hands on, Teal'c just looked chill, though he did have a very slight smile on his face that showed he too was excited at the prospect of a means of defeating the Goa'uld.
"Sure love too, but I have to contact my people let them know we're still alive plus tell them about you guys" He said simply.
Windu nodded, "Very well, I look forward to seeing you, Knight Secura, you and the 327th Star Corps are to go to Felucia to deal with a Separatist out post that has been reported, Masters Plo Koon and Yaddle you will help Colonel O'Neill contact his people may be even arrange a meeting with his superiors" Said Windu.
Some one handed something to Windu, it was a little disconcerting to see a disembodied arm appear and hand him a I-pad he nodded as he took it, he read the pad before he looked up "Master Yaddle we are sending the 65th legion to you, the Chancellor finale managed to push it threw, Coruscant Central Security will once more handle planet wide security, the Senate security will handle the security of the senate and the senators" He said Yaddle nodded, Windu looked at Commander Fox a very slight smile came over Windu's face "All your troopers will be arriving in a day or so Commander, it should be interesting few days" He said Fox nodded "I'm sure CCS will comm me very few hours as well the Senate Guard" He said with a grunt Windu let out a very slight chuckle "I'm sure they will" He said.
"Is there anything else?" He asked a few shook their heads "Very well May the Force be with you" He said before the table turned off and the ten people vanished.
"Good luck with your mission to Felucia Aayla" Said Plo, Aayla sighed "We keep being sent to that world" She said she looked at Bly with a soft smile, "It took us weeks to clean all the gear" He said with a groan. "Hazard is going to love it he'll go looking for Stripes" He moaned.
Aayla smiled at him "Maybe you could have let him bring Stripes?" She said Bly looked at her and eyebrow raised "There wouldn't have been no where to put the thing plus we wouldn't have been able to store enough food for a one Gelagrub let alone five of them the whole squad would have wanted to bring them with them" He said.
"Gelagrub?" Asked Daniel, Aayla smiled and pressed the table a couple times and a holograph appeared showing four troopers each seating astride what could only be described as giant grub's.
"Damn a giant bug" Said Jack, Bly seemed to sneer at the sight of them Aayla smiled at him "They were domesticated" She said as though reminding him of something "The Jungle Rancor can be domesticated it just take time that's all" He said Aayla shook her head "Come Bly we had best be on our way" She as turned she gave a nod and left followed by Bly.
"Jungle Rancor a bigger bug?" Asked Jack, Plo chuckled and pressed the table and a much larger creature, clearly a reptile with much larger turtle shaped head compared to the rest of its body appeared "Bigger?" Asked Jack, Wolffe nodded "The Jungle Rancor eats Gelagrub's its the apex predator on the planet" said Wolffe with a nasty grin on his face, Jack could almost envision Wolffe riding one of the things.
He glanced at Fox, he could see that Fox agreed with Wolffe and Bly.
Jack shook his head.
"I was wondering Colonel how did you arrive on this planet?" Asked Yaddle "We used the Stargate" He said.
After several minutes of explaining the Stargate they all made their way to the command bridge.
Its still weirded Jack out when he saw the Clones some wore armour some wore grey uniforms and low caps.
The planet they had arrived on was on fire, "Where is this Gate Colonel?" Asked Plo as the approached the centre of the command bridge, "A few miles into the valley that Fox found us" Said Jack.
Wolffe pressed the centre console and scanned the valley "According to the scans the whole valley is a blaze, there's no way we can get a Gunship any where near the Stargate" Said Wolffe.
Plo stood next to Wolffe he placed his large hand on his chin "There seems to be a eastern wind feeding the flames the fire will not die down for a very long time" He said.
Plo looked at Jack "It seems we will have to go to your people, though I assume that your people will not react well to the idea of our ships just arriving" He said Jack nodded "Yeah the IOA will loose their collective minds if you guys just turned up" Said Jack.
"Maybe the Alpha site, they could probable go there?" Said Daniel, Jack nodded "Yeah that could work, we can contact the Alpha Site officer in charge, they can contact the SGC and tell Hammond he can have the joy of telling IOA and the Tok'ra" Said Jack.
"Do you know the coordinates of the this Alpha Site?" Asked Plo, Jack opened his mouth then closed it he knew the gate address but not the planet coordinates he looked at Sam and Teal'c "Guy's?" He asked Teal'c raised an eyebrow and bowed his bald head "I know the coordinates to the planet Master Koon" He said.
He then walked over to the navigation console and told the navigator the coordinates.
Yaddle looked up at Plo "My self and the Guard had best prepare our selves for the arrival of the 65th it will take them a few hours to arrive from the Core" She said.
"I have the coordinates Sir!" Called the navigator Plo nodded "Send them to the 65th they can make their way there it should not take them too long to catch up with us" He said Yaddle nodded in agreement.
"In the mean time let us go to the mess hall, you must be quite hungry after such a trying day" Said Yaddle with a soft smile "Come, come" She said as she left the bridge followed by Fox and the SG1 team.
Jack had come to the conclusion that mess halls were universal.
They all sat at the table in the mess hall, Jack had to admit the food wasn't too bad, he glanced at what Yaddle was eating it was moving, he could only stare as she lifted up a wiggling fat worm and opened her mouth revealing several sharp teeth, proving her people were predators on their world Jack blinked and shook his head.
Off to the side sat Fox and his men they were all eating something different all looked very alien, one even had something that looked similar to what ever Yaddle was eating.
"If I may ask what are you a Master of?" Asked Daniel who could no longer hold back the tons of questions that were bubbling in side his nerdy brain.
Yaddle smiled kindly at Daniel "I am a Master of the Jedi order, I have learned much about the force" She said.
"The Force?" Asked Daniel, Jack just knew that Daniel was itching to pull out a pen and pad to write.
She smiled at him, Jack recognised the look of a teacher about to launch into a lesson, "The Force is what gives a Jedi their power, its an energy field created by all living things, it surrounds us and penetrates us, it binds the galaxy together, there is the Living Force the energy of all life, this in turn feeds in to the Cosmic Force which binds everything together and communicates the will of the force though those who have midi-chlorians" She said Daniel blinked, Sam spoke up "Midi-chlorians?" She asked, Yaddle nodded "Midi-chlorians are a microscopic life form that resides within all living cells, they are the link between the Living force and the Cosmic force, they form a symbiotic relationship with an organic host, a bond that is especially strong with Force-sensitive beings, who possess a high quantity of midi-chlorians in cells. The mutually advantageous relationship allow the midi-chlorians to communicate the will of the Force though to their Force-sensitive hosts, simply put the more of these tiny organisms a being posses, the greater potential for power in the force a being may have" She said.
"Can these midi-chlorians control people?" Asked Jack, Yaddle smiled up at him "No they can not, they have no desires to do such things" She said "What kind of power?" Asked Daniel.
She smiled, she raised her tri fingered hand, "Wow!" Cried out Daniel while sitting in chair was levitated off the floor and hung there a good four foot off the floor, with out even a little wobbled.
Sam stared as her friend who simply hung there, then slowly and gently lowered back down to the floor.
Jack looked at Yaddle then at Daniel who weighted at least two hundred pounds, she smiled at them.
"Ok" Said Jack he had no idea how he was going to explain this to General Hammond.
Meanwhile across the galaxy on the Alpha site.
Major Gerald McCoy took a deep breath, the Tok'ra had arrived, Selmak wasn't too bad, but the other Tok'ra was annoying, they just seemed to think that the SGC could not comprehend the wider galaxy, now McCoy was a simple grunt yet he resented the idea that Earth Humans were stupid.
Selmak/ General Jacob Carter walked over followed closely by Tarac/Rulf "Has there been any word about Sam and her team" Ask Carter, McCoy shook his head "No sir nothing yet" He answered Carter sighed deeply "I better call Earth, the geo sensors are picking up some spikes that are looking worrying according to the egg heads" Said McCoy "What spikes there is no seismic activity, there is no molten core" Said Tarac, McCoy took a deep breath before he answered "I don't know sir but its got the scientists worried" He answered.
McCoy walked towards the gate suddenly the ground lurched McCoy stared as a massive chunk of ground collapsed right in front of the Stargate, McCoy blinked he coughed as the pale green gas rose.
McCoy stood and very carefully walked over to the DHD it was still in place as was the Stargate.
He dialled the gate address soon the gate activated, worryingly large clumps of soil crumbled in to the newly created crevice.
"This General Hammond what's your report Major McCoy" Asked Hammond "General we may have a problem, we're picking up seismic activity, the area around the Gate is becoming unstable" He said he could hear rumblings and the crash of more ground giving away.
"Can your people get threw the Gate" Asked Hammond suddenly the ground heaved once more but even more violently McCoy watched in horror as the ground crumbled away taking both the MALP as well as the DHD in to the growing crevice, then slowly the still active Gate fell in as well, McCoy grabbed his radio.
"SGC close the Gate!, the Gate has fallen into the crevice, Close the Gate!" He yelled into the radio as the Gate vanished in to the light green gas that was the planet's core.
Earth SGC.
Hammond stared at the now deactivated Gate, several personnel were still coughing, a few who were closer to the gate were semi conscience.
Medical was already on its way, Hammond looked at Master Sergeant Harriman "Get me the Daedalus it should entering the Milky way" Said Hammond, Harriman looked at his computer "They should be entering the Milky Way in two hours sir" Said Harriman.
Hammond sighed deeply, it had been a hell of few days first SG1 had vanished from a planet in a Dwarf galaxy and now the Alpha Site was now inaccessible, he was dreading contacting the IOA but first he will contact the President.
The edge of the Milky Way.
Jack had to admit that the ship was cool, but he could imagine IOA and the military asking for tech and weapons then medical and science stuff.
The 65th had arrived, Jack and the rest of SG1 stood in one of the meany observation windows, they finale got to see what a Venerator looked like and they were huge easily dwarfing any ship Jack had seen except maybe the Asgard.
Yaddle, Fox and the rest of the Guard had gone over to the newly arrived ships.
Soon there was a soft hum as the ship prepared to go in to hyper space, there was the ever so slight tug in the gut that happened when the ship slipped into hyper space.
"It still feels weird" Said Jack as the the flew threw hyper space, stars stretched out, it was a little odd looking out of the window and seeing dozens ships gliding next to them.
Several hours later.
The ships arrived in the system that the Alpha site was in, Jack walked on the bridge he looked at the planet, he at once saw a large crater.
"What's happened? He asked he looked at Plo who was standing in front of the console table that was a hologram of the planet.
"It seems the planet is in the process of becoming a Gas giant, which is unusual as Gas giants are rarely solid planetoids" He said stroking his mask covered chin, he looked at Jack "We have picked up a number of life forms, they seem to be making their way, away from the crater, though they really don't have any where to go, by theses scans I believe the planet will become uninhabitable in a few days to those who breath oxygen, curious the core is pure Clouzon 36" Said Plo.
"Why is it curious?" Asked Sam despite the concern she had for people at the Alpha site.
He looked at her "Clouzon 36 is used as a Hyperdrive fuel by many Hyper drive capable species" He said.
"It's a natural fuel dump?" Said Daniel as he looked as the widening green glowing crater.
Plo nodded, then Plo went very still, he then walked over to the main window and just stood there silently, seemingly staring out into the vastness of space "General?" Asked Wolffe.
"I sense a presence" He said distractedly as he continue to look out of the window, suddenly Commander Fox hailed them sounding concerned "Triumphant something is going on with the General" Said Fox sounding very confused.
"Same thing is happening to General Plo" Answered Wolffe .
Suddenly every one heard a odd whine that to the SG1 sounded like a whale.
"Purrgil!" Shouted a bridge trooper, the alarm went off not long after, "Move with them" Plo suddenly said Jack stared as suddenly what could only be described as a space whale with tentacles slide up to them.
"You heard the General, move with them!" Shouted Wolffe over the alarms the ships moved and began moving with the Purrgil.
The alarm was shut off, Jack and the SG1 could only stare as the Purrgil serenely glided threw space their soft song heard threw out the ship.
"Sir they seem to be heading for the planet" Said a Trooper.
Jack blinked and stared as the pod of Purrgil headed for the planet.
"Why are they doing that?" Asked Sam.
"Maybe they are going to feed, the people on the planet may look like the plankton that these creatures consume?" Said Teal'c.
"We have to stop them" Said Sam worried about her Father who she knew was on the planet.
Plo shook his head "Our weapons will be of no use, their hides are very dense, they can easily with stand our turbo lasers, they can do considerably damage to our ships with out even trying" Said Plo.
He pulled himself from the window and walked over to the console, "Maybe one of our ships can land long enough to collect the people before the ground gives out from under them" Said Plo.
"We will land Plo" Said Yaddle over the comm, Jack watched as one of the Acclamator-Class Assault Ships carefully made its way threw the pod.
"Colonel O'Neill maybe you can contact your people on the planet so they are not overly concerned" She said.
On the planet.
Major McCoy wondered what deity had he insulted to have such a day, first the Tok'ra turn up, then the planet effectively starts falling apart, now it seemed large creatures seemed to be almost swarming over an increasingly large crater.
So far they hadn't lost anyone but McCoy was a realist, they had no where to go, they couldn't get off the planet, sooner or later the ground was going to fall out from under neath them.
"O'Neill to McCoy can you read me" Came the colonel's voice over the radio, McCoy wanted yell with relief at the sound of his voice "McCoy here sir, its real good to hear your voice" He said with a laugh.
"Your people ok McCoy?" Asked O'Neill.
"Yes sir, I've not lost any one yet but it's only matter of time, any idea how to get us out of here" He asked.
"Yeah heads up, a ship is heading your way, their friendly, get on board ASPA we don't know why the space whales have come here, we kinda hope that they don't see you guys as plankton" Said O'Neill.
McCoy looked up at the creatures and could see that in fact they did look like whales, he then heard powerful engines he turned his mouth fell open at the sight of the ship that looked to be as bigger the Daedalus.
"Their friendlies Sir?" Questioned McCoy as the ship landed, the ground cracked slightly "Yes get on board Major now!" Ordered O'Neill.
The hatch of the ship opened "You heard the Colonel, move people!" Said McCoy, thirty odd people ran to the ship.
McCoy had to wonder, who the new people were, and he knew that the Colonel probably had a real wild story to go along with it.
Ether way McCoy loved his job!.
"What do the Purrgil want?, how will Earth react to the Jedi, the Republic, the Clones and the Separatist's, tune in next time for the epic conclusion"
