Arcturus readied his ship and prepared as many weapons as he could. His shields were stable at 89%, his anti-matter missiles were fully stocked and his pulse grid was still over 65% functional. He launched from the lunar base as the system reported a wormhole opening in the command deck of the base the hangar he was launching from was in.
Arcturus used his neural interface to transport the AlterOp agent who stepped out to the bridge of another transferred command and told him they would debrief after the battle.
A small destroyer covered in pulse cannons with a triple barrel primary beam cannon on the buttom as well as 30 anti-matter missile launch tubes and a small mine launcher. The ship was fully functional as it sat in the maintenance bay and had been kept at 100%.
The ship informed him the connection to the military communication grid was complete and and an inventory recall had been entitled. It confirmed the location of 4 production facilities,.a repair drydock inside an astroid bunker, a small shipyard in deep-space,some genetics labs and personal computers, and then a goldmine. On dakara the first central tower command AI responded to communication and informed him it had been dormant for 4 million years. As well as a distorted automated response from a warship in transit from pegasus. So litte had survived but what had was good. For if Centaruallia had survived then phonician protocol could be enacted. Still to deal with this attack first. The two ships made their way out of the moon base hangar and approached the fleet of HA'TAAK, alkesh and modified gliders. Arcturus broadcast a message and a figure in a hooded silver cloak appeared on the screen.
"This is Arcturus Riddickson. Commanding General of AlterOP Military Forces. This is my Flagship the HO 2, you are in violation of sovereign space claimed by the Alterran Empire. LEave now or be destroyed Go'uld."
Anubis Laughed and responded " and who are you then? The Ancients have long since died and you are not here to enact retribution upon me. Not that you even could mere mortal-" Anubis had planned toi reveal his form and hopefully scare the Ancient general. It did not go as planned. As Anubis revealed his face Arcturus face froze and morphed into a fury before going beyond in an animalistic rage with a roar and growl Arcturus used his interface to fired every weapon on his ship. The weapons fire slammed into anubis' mothership and the shields flickered and failed under the horrific onslaught. As soon as the shield failed Arcturus transported himself directly infront of anubis. The jaffa on the bridge froze in shock before two of them aimed their staffs at him. With a flick of his eyes the jaffa were ripped in half and fell to the ground on either side of where they had been standing. Before anyone else could move the rest of the jaffa were splattered on the floors, walls, and ceiling and anubis stood there in shock. Then he screamed as his mind came under a ferocious attack. Through it all a manic gleam in his purple eyes shone and a holo began broadcasting using the ships own communication system. It showed a real-time live feed of what was happening to all the ships and military bases in the system.
Arcturus stood there his shoulders and arms locked shaking with unbridled blood-lusting Rage. his Glowing purple eyes often remarked on for their kindness, intelligence, and warmth now gleamed cold and wrathful. Unforgiving and unyielding to their grey black uniform stood out in bright contrast to the surroundings. Anubis was on his knees screaming as arcturus ripped his partially ascended mind apart. Never before had anubis known such power was even possible let alone existed. As his mind was shredded he de-activavted his containment shield and fled.
Arcturus screamed and reached out with his hand grasping like a claw. "NO YOU DONT YOU MONSTEROSITY! I SHALL DESTORY YOU ATOM BY ATOM BIT BY BIT HOW DARE YOU ATTEMPT ASCENION YOU FOUL PITAAKL" the black cloud that was anubis froze and seemed to slowly be dragged backward as arcturus concentrated and began making ripping gestures pulling back with his hands. Then the cloud screamed a final cry and vanished. The fleet sat there in shock then turned its weapons on earth, as well as his ship and Zans. They began targeting and powering weapons.. As soon as arcturus realized what was happening he transported back to his bridge and saw dozens of ships appearing on his sensors. The systems processed then identified them. It was the nox. As purple hyperspace windows opened up spitting out the nox ships, light purple beams of light shot out from the ship and struck the go'uld shields. They ignored them and hit the hulls. Pieces of the ships seemed to waver and shimmer then the ships ripped themselves apart. The beams were displacing parts of the ships as they hit, thye ships moved and the pisces re-phased in the wrong places with whole sections open to vacuum. The secondary explosions and implosions destroyed almost half the fleet before shield harmonics were changed and the beams began striking them instead. The shields waved but held under multiple shots. Then the asguard arrived. The go'uld shields could not stand up to a full military strike from two of the eldest races. And soon the remaining go'uld ships had retreated and left. Soon three ships came together. The HO 2, the City-Ship Haven, and the O'neil 2.al met in the outer edged of the solar system. Zan was running diagnostics and checking what was still usable in the Luna command attended the meeting he had called. Thor beamed in to the council chambers of Haven as did arcturus and three nox elders also beamed in. they all sat around a small table that appeared with small basets of fruit, bread and some pitchers of juice and mead. As they all took a small bit of bread, mead and an apple they ate in siocne before the middle nox stood up. A younger elder, fenneral addsressed the gathering.
"Well it has been many millenia since our ships were launched. Even longer since we fought in a battle. You our great teachers, were in need of aid against a disease. We the nox have assisted. The asguard stand ready to assist you further is the anything more you need of us?"
Arcturus furrowed his brow for a moment. This seemed rather stand-offish for the nox but still six and a quarter million years was a long time. Mybe somethings had changed?
"I would hope that even if you are not happy with your people actions here today, you would still honor clause 0 article 0 Anquyitus militarum phonienia
Officially asked for and phonican protocol is active as well."
The nox stiffened. Nodded and disappeared. A small collection of 50 stais pods appeared in the cargo hold of the HO 2 all had a surviving alterOP member. 10 opertivces, 10 technicians, 3 military scientific analysts for reverse engineering enemy technology, 10 medics, a doctor, a surgeon, 5 nurses also trained in guard duty and advanced crowd control, and 10 security officers. As the pods opened and they woke up they were given uploads and placed in a mild medical stasis to assimilate the download and come to terms with what would be needed.
The nox had rescued a few of the pods from ships adrift before they destroyed themselves. Now arcturus and wouldn't be completely meeting continued and arcturus learned more of the humans and the SGC, the war with the go'uld, their discovery of and expedition to atlantis where he learned of the wraith and the fall of the last of their people. He accessed his ships logs and saw an automated inventory and access list had been sent and received and returned by the Atlantis AI. the city was in dire need of help.
After talking with thor and some other asgard arcturus agreed he would assume command of the alterran people and the asgard would begin cloning bodies for them using advanced ancient methods that removed the genetic risks involved. Soon, after visiting withy the SGC, arcturus would travel to Dakara and access the central tower of the oldest and most p[owerful city ever constructed by the alterrans. Inside it in a secret chamber there was a computer core. Inside that core were the minds and consciousness of over 400,000 Alterrans. Scientists, inventors, generals, leaders, if you made a name in the early days of the ancints your mind was saved in case of this. Phonician protocol. It meant the imminent extinction of the Alterrans was at hand. They were to be grown clone bodies and have their mind uploaded with modernized knowledge to assist in rebuilding and re-populating the species. It was a desperate move. But one arcturus hoped would work. Still it would take many years for the number of clones needed. For now, That 50 the nox rescued and zan were all arcturus had.
After the meeting, arcturus decided to meet the leader of the SGC and get it over with. He transported a hologram of himself to the conference room overlooking the gate. SG-1 was there. Oneil sat at the end of the row next to teal'c who was next to carter, on Landry's left was dr. jackson who was half-standing and frozen staring at arcturus who had appeared in the middle of the table.
"Oops" he walked out and to the side of the room. He looked everyone in the eyes and scanned their mind for the language. Then spoke.
"Greetings, I am Arcturus. Commanding General of all ALterOP Military forces. I have repelled the attack by the one known as Anubis. I seek a discussion of mutual interest. I seek access to atlantis peacefully. Would you bhe interested in a joint occupation? We would be happy to teach your people the true history and streganth of our people."
Everyone was shocked eventually landry unfroze and with the help of jackson an agreement was reached inside a few hours.
"Arcturus transported back to his ship in orbit and then transmitted a lockdown command to the luna base. Sealing it against intrusion. There was a lot there to still go through. Then arcturus transmitted a remote override command to zans ships and they both disappeared into hyperspace.
4 days later two hyperspace windows in orbit of lantea. Atlantis raised it shield and ten F302's were launched. As arcturus approached he transported himself directly infront of the gate. The override pedestal shot up as he materalised and he interfaced with his neural implant. He input his military access overirde code as a secuirty team ran up point their weapons at him. Then arcturus smiled. The pillers that decorated the room and had those odd light fixtures shimmered. Or rather they appeared to, as the light fixtures slid down and small pointed crystals could be seen. Then small jets of light shot out. One hit every soldier holding a weapon on Arcturus. They fell to ground. As he walked past them and up the stair. A message played over his neaual interface.

Who are you?!" demanded weir as she rushed out and saw her soldiers fall. The report had taken less than a second to receive.
Arturs explained who he was as the 10 security officers transported in and zan came up to stand with arcturus.
Arcturus walked with weir to the control room and used his neural interface while he asked why the city was in admin mode with none of the generators working if they were at war with the wraith? Weir couldnt explain until arcturus used his command codes to restore the Atlantis database to full functionality. Ship design and schemataic flew across the screen as did formulas and devices even the high council at the hight of the war had never had access to. Arcturus unlocked the ALterOP database and activated the Atlantis AI. after learning these "replicators" had secretly forcibly quarantined him before going into isolation on a single planet. Now Atlanta was wake again and helping teach the tauri about the city. Arcturus activated generators and ordered the AI to reconfigure the city.
ROdney and shepard walked in as he was explaining to weir Atlantis had different modes and rn they had depleted the primary admins modes systems,. But he could change modes and fix that. Rodney laughed and said it was impossible. Shepard simple stared and said., "do it"
Arcturus walked over to the holo room. He accessed the console and spoke
"Recognize Arcturus Acting General ALterOP Military forces. Under My command, initiate city-ship nano transfer mode. Level 5 assault defender. Full loadout. Authorization TREA MAE GAIA execute.
The lights all went out.
