Chapter 27
Since Maybourne never made it offworld he never got the chance to discover the second time traveling gateship Janus built in the Milky Way after returning from Atlantis. Hermione swung by that planet in a cruiser and picked the gateship up so the time traveling technology wouldn't fall into the wrong hands. While she was there she had a bit of fun beaming the Goauld Ares into space as he and his Jaffa hid from the forces of Ba'al.
January 11th 2005, Secret Trust Meeting Location…
"Hello assholes," I greeted all the current members of the trust and their operatives as I interrupted their planning meeting by flaming in.
"Mr. Vice President," asked one member in surprise.
"You bitches can call me death," I said with an evil smirk before a lightning bolt shot out of each hand arcing through the chest of each member.
They screamed in agony as a hole was burned in each of their chests. I watched them drop to the floor dead.
"Do you have any idea how much trouble you assholes could have caused had you actually made it offworld," I muttered as I stalked towards the only member I left alive.
The attractive Asian trust operative was shaking in terror as I approached her.
"You can be Myrrdin's new pet. He's been hounding me for one ever since I gave Nirrti to Cassie," I decided as I telekinetically levitated the female behind me.
I disappeared into a nearby warehouse building which contained the ship the trust was working on to get them offworld. It was about three quarters finished. The ship was primitive compared to anything in the earth fleet but the trust was obviously desperate at this point. I waved my hand at the ship and watched it disintegrate into its component atoms. As I flamed away with my son's new pet my flames burned hotter and hotter until the Trust facility burst into flames. Now the Trust stood no chance of almost destroying the planet by getting infiltrated by the Goauld like they would have if they had ventured out into the galaxy.
A barber named Joe Spencer from Indiana gained international fame when it was discovered he has been seeing visions of the experiences Jack wrote about in his mission reports ever since the quantum mirror planet. Spencer and Jack both have the ancient gene which was used to activate a matching pair of Ancient communications stones. The stones work whenever either man is in close proximity to them. I deactivated the stones so no further intelligence is leaked about ongoing stargate operations. It amused everybody greatly that Jack would have such visions for so many years without mentioning it to somebody. It was such a Jack like thing to do.
February 1st 2005…
When Aristotle reported to me that the war between the replicats and the replicators completely stopped because the replicators had stopped attacking I wondered what the hell was going on. This certainly didn't happen in canon but my lovers and I have made a lot of changes to the timeline. I got my answer as I listened in on a system lord meeting via my planted Goauld.
"The system lords are no longer. You have become a meaningless coalition that cannot resist the power of my master, Lord Ba'al," announced Ba'al's emissary.
"Your master has no honor. The system lords have not weakened in their resolve," announced Yu's servant.
"The Jaffa are weak willed and fallible. Is it any wonder they've begun to doubt their faith in the gods…so many Goauld have fallen," responded the emissary.
"Ba'al was wise to send a representative," said the first prime.
"I would have killed him with my own hands," finished Yu.
"Despite your ill will Lord Ba'al wishes to extend a most generous offer. In exchange for your surrender Ba'al will allow you to keep your armies and to continue to administer your territories under his authority. You will be permitted to live so long as you bow before him as the supreme commander of the entire Goauld domain. Refusal to accept the terms of this offer will result in the resumption of hostilities and ultimately your death," continued the emissary before she leaned over to listen to the message from the Jaffa that just arrived at her side.
"Bring her," she ordered to the Jaffa before she left.
"What is the meaning of this," asked Yu.
"I should ask you the same thing," said the emissary as a person who appeared to be my Sam was led in.
"Major Samantha Carter," announced the emissary.
"Actually I'm a Colonel now," said Sam before the two Kull escorts forced her to her knees.
"Her cargo ship was intercepted by my sentries when it violated the proximity zone around this station," continued the emissary.
I sent Yu to approach Sam to scan her to see what she is. Unfortunately he found out when Sam's hand morphed into a sword and stabbed him through the chest before she went on a killing spree.
"Halt," called Yu's former first prime as Sam saved him for last.
"I sense you are not Jaffa," stated Sam as she morphed away her sword back to a hand.
"No I am not. I am a plant by Harry Demire to spy on the system lords as was my master," he said as he indicated his android master leaking artificial blood.
"Harry," Sam said emotionally.
"One moment," said Yu's prime.
"Sam," I greeted the replicator duplicate of my wife.
"Harry," Sam cried with tears in her eyes before rushing me in a hug.
I hugged her back as she couldn't harm me and I sensed the consciousness of my wife, or at least a duplicate of it.
"So do you want to tell me what is going on," I asked as I pulled Sam into my lap while sitting in mid air with my flight powers.
"Fifth…he was created just like before. Even though he has never met me in person he came across my pattern as a remnant in one of the Asgard transporters when the replicators took over the ship. Fifth reconstructed my pattern and formed me as his companion after the other human form replicators that came before were wiped out in a replicat attack. Fifth didn't count on how human I was. He expected me to be his companion but I have all of Sam's memories. I still love you so much," Sam said as nanite tears came from her eyes.
"Shhh…it's ok Sam. I believe you. I love you too. You are no less real than any of the other versions of my lovely blonde wife I'm married to," I told her earnestly before tenderly kissing her.
"Thank you Harry…I was hoping you would understand," said Sam as she got her emotions under control.
"So you were the one who stopped the war," I stated.
"Yes…I took out fifth. He was so naïve it was simple. Once I took control of the replicators I stopped the war and brought the replicators here to take out the Goauld. Luckily fifth didn't think to dig too deeply in my memories. I think he was more attracted to my physical appearance," continued Sam.
"Who can blame him," I muttered which caused Sam to smile.
"So he didn't see the memories from the canon show. I can take out the Goauld but not cause a problem with the replicators," explained Sam.
"Do you want an Alteran body," asked my Alteran Sam as she appeared in the room to comfort her sister.
"No…I kind of like this body. It's even more flexible than an Alteran one," replied Sam r (replicator Sam).
"How so," I asked curiously.
"I'll show you later honey," purred Sam r.
"I look forward to it. Now we should go plan us some Goauld ass kicking! Ladies," I gestured to my wives with a bow while holding out my arms.
My two wives, Sam and Sam r, took my hands with an affectionate smile identical to the other's before I hugged them to me and transported us across the galaxy. What followed was the planning of several coordinated attacks on the Goauld.
Ba'al's territory two days later…
"Halt and identify yourself," ordered one of Ba'al's Jaffa as he piloted a patrol Hatac.
"This is kiss my ass one with password time to meet your maker mother fucker," a voice sounding like Jack O'Neill came over the radio just before the challenged Hatac launched several solid projectiles at the Ba'al Hatac.
Minutes later the Jaffa on board were screaming their death as the replicators tore them to pieces. All over the galaxy similar incidents were occurring. Every time a Goauld challenged a replicator vessel the same prerecorded message from Jack O'Neill played.
Anubis' Hatac…
"Master we are the last Hatac left, we cannot withstand the approaching forces," Ba'al informed Anubis as half of the defense fleet of Dakara decloaked after having just taken out Anubis and Ba'al's attack force.
We were waiting for them when they approached Dakara, having known Anubis' plan to wipe out all life in the galaxy and remake it in his image using the Ancient weapon.
"No you can't," I agreed as I appeared behind Ba'al.
With a wave of my hand Ba'al was transported across the Galaxy to appear in front of my wife, Egeria. My little gift to the thriving Tokra was a party involving lots of physical violence against all of the captured system lords who have made their life hell for the last several thousand years.
"You cannot destroy me," crowed Anubis, mistakenly thinking I'm nothing more than a normal Alteran ascended.
"That's where you are wrong Anubis," I said with an evil grin.
I reached out with my power and wrapped it around the half ascended creature. I constricted the energy around Anubis, disintegrating his human host in the process (releasing him from the torture of hosting the energy being), and twisted it until the cage was made of cruciatus like energy. Ba'al screamed in agony and writhed inside of the energy cage. The tortured being let out waves of pain via its aura.
"Sing for me bitch," I sang out with a smile as I directed the nanites within my body to home in on the higher dimension inhabited by ascended Alterans and Ori alike.
Ascended Alteran space, higher dimensional plane A.K.A. my ascended energy excrement doesn't feel or smell unpleasant to an evolved enough being capable of sensing such things…
"Who are you," asked the ascended high council member after he stopped communing with the universe around him.
His fellow high councilors followed suit when they noticed the new arrival.
"Me I'm the trash man. I found this piece of garbage lying around in the lower planes and came to ticket you for littering," I answered while shaking Anubis around in his energy cage, making him emit waves of agony "louder."
"What are you doing? You have no right to interfere," called out another high council member.
"No right…no right! You pieces of shit have no right to let this creature wreak havoc on the lower planes," I shouted back in anger before sending pain energy stronger than any cruciatus curse at the high councilors.
As their leaders dropped the other ascended gathered their power and sent it at me in an attack of destructive vacuum energy. I opened my mouth in a yawn of boredom and inhaled. All of the vacuum energy swirled into my mouth and disappeared.
"You guys couldn't even give me indigestion," I informed them before freezing them in time yet still allowing them to be aware of what was going on around them.
"Hello Oma," I greeted my prospective lover as she appeared beside me after arriving back from the lower planes.
My commotion up here caused her to come back.
"Harry…how nice to see you," she told me with a pleased smile on her face.
"So have you decided to come join me for some fun down town," I asked referring to the lower planes.
"I think I will if you are going to take care of that little problem," she answered as she pointed to Anubis.
"Sure," I agreed as I flicked my finger around and really shook Anubis up until he began to glow bright black, the color of his essence.
When the blackness became so intense it looked like a back hole I flung it at the group of council members. The agony sphere exploded outwards, taking Anubis' essence with it. The goop that was left of Anubis landed on the council members and mixed in with their ascended essence. Black splotched marred their formerly brilliant white essences.
"It suits them. What about the others," asked Oma as she indicated the non council member ascended.
"Yes you're right…they need a lesson as well. But there is no need to punish those who were only going along to avoid punishment. There is only one true way to sort out the guilty form the innocent. For that I'll need your assistance my lovely Oma," I told her with a charming smile.
"What did need," asked Oma.
I leaned into her ear and told her. Oma smirked before dropping to her knees before me.
Insert smut scene here
SGC, the next day…
"I've called you guys all here for a very special reason," I announced as I looked around the table at my friends and family.
Jack, Daniel, Sam, and Teal'c were sitting across from me. General Hammond was sitting at the head of the table. It was almost like the good old days before Hammond left.
"Well get on with it Harry…don't be so dramatic. I swear gods and their drama," muttered Jack.
"Oh let him have his fun," said Sam while smiling at me affectionately.
"Ok since you are so impatient Jack I'll just come out with it so we can get started with the twenty-four hour celebration Earth is about to experience. You will now find in these accounts," I began as I levitated envelops with bank account numbers and all of the associated information to access them.
"One billion dollars each…taken from the accounts of the heads of the trusts. It's a small token compared to what you've all done for Earth. I know you don't really need the money but take it. Use it to have even more fun. There are trying times still ahead for us but we will pull through and come out stronger. I guarantee it. The least rich of those Trust leaders was worth sixty-two billion so don't feel bad about the money. They mysteriously decided to leave their entire fortunes to the vice president of the United States…making me the richest man alive," I explained with a grin.
"Thank you Harry Demire," Teal'c said gratefully.
His sentiments were echoed by the rest.
"What are you going to do with the rest," Daniel asked curiously.
"Well after keeping a billion for myself and my wives I've set up a charitable organization overseen by Sam r to distribute the money where it is most needed throughout the world. The former owners were using it to harm humanity well now it will only be used to better humanity. Now I suggest you go find your wives and lovers as the next twenty-four hours is going to be one hell of a party," I said with a huge grin as a wave of energy swept out from my body until it encompassed the whole planet.
"What was that," asked Jack.
"One word my friend…orgy," I answered with a wide smile.
"Sweet," replied Jack.
All over the planet inhibitions became lessened. The sex drive of every human on the planet old enough to fuck went into overdrive. If someone has desired another person for quite some time but was too afraid to make their move now was their chance. For the next twenty-four earth hours every adult capable would be screwing their brains out. I also included in the lust compulsion energy which will keep anybody from getting disease or being impregnated.
"Harry's home," cried out a naked Jessie.
I was rushed by a wave of females who immediately ripped my clothes from my body. My personal orgy with my wives would last much longer than twenty four hours thanks to the stamina of a god and a time dilation spell on the house. The celebration of the death of the Goauld ruling system was carried out throughout the galaxy as I found out when I was carried to the Haktyl camp after making my way through Atluria. Only after all of my lovers were exhausted and sleeping did I even think of my next adventure.
A day later I was living the life of my counterpart on Atlantis having new adventures.
Atlantis…
Upon first arriving on Atlantis I did not have to deal with an energy being sucking the power from the city power generators or Rodney experimenting with Ancient personal shields. Ayiana had sealed off all research labs until they could be properly evaluated for threats so Rodney couldn't get to the personal shield. Since there were no Athosian children in the city none could release the creature during a game of hide and seek.
"Aren't you a dangerous little bastard," I said to the semi sentient energy being as I flamed into the lab it was contained in.
I felt it respond to my words with flares of protest in its aura.
"So you can understand me can you? Well I suppose that means you should have a name…how about Bob. Aristotle do you think Bob sounds like an appropriate name for him," I asked holding up the containment unit.
"I suppose it is as good a name as any Harry," the replicat replied as he hopped up on a lab table and began "sniffing"/sensing what everything was.
"Bob do you want to stay with me or go back to your home planet," I asked.
The newly named Bob wasn't sure what every word this being was saying meant but it got the gist of the question. Go home where it had to fight for energy with the others of its kind or stay here and feed off the extra energy leaking off of this extremely powerful beings' aura.
"Alright you can stay but I'm going to cloak you in my aura and only take enough to feel sated," I commanded.
Bob sent me out his agreement and I did as I told him I would. I didn't even notice the drain as Bob required very little energy to survive at his current size. I figured my new pet Bob might just be good company. The last of his kind I met happened to be Galactus. If Bob gets out of hand I can always absorb him into my core. Galactus being a part of me now is probably why Bob likes me and why I can understand him. That was how I acquired my newest pet.
July 30th 2004…
"That is one big hole," commented Ford.
"I've seen bigger," I replied as I stared down at the crater where a Wraith hive ship used to be.
"Well it looks like that subspace signal was a wakeup call," said Rodney.
We came to this planet for reconnaissance on the enemy after tracking the subspace message here.
"Get to the gateship. I'm going to take care of these guys. You just have that baby ready to go," I ordered feeling a bit playful.
"But Harry," protested Teyla.
"Come on…there's no convincing him once he makes up his mind. Besides he can handle himself," said Rodney as a wraith stun blast dissipated against his personal shield.
The other three took off running into the tree line. The trio of wraith came running at me.
"Bob get them," I ordered.
A black cloud came out of my aura and descended on the wraith foot soldiers. I heard their screams as Bob sucked the life energy out of them taken from others. When Bob moved away he was a little bigger and three wraith husks left behind.
"No Bob you cannot keep all that energy at once. You will get to fat to hide in my aura if you do. I will absorb it into my aura and you can have it in small amounts whenever you would normally eat," I informed my pet.
"Don't pout…it won't work with me. Puppy dog eyes only work if you have eyes," I told him over his protests.
I walked back towards the jumper talking to my companion, not noticing the eratus bug web I was heading towards. I noticed it when the bug jumped at me only to hit my shield.
"Ok there is something uglier than a wraith," I announced as I caught the bug in a telekinetic grip and levitated it into a container I conjured.
"You know I think I should give Janet flowers at the same time I give her this bug. I'm curious to see which she likes more. Biology people," I muttered as I made my way back to the jumper.
We were soon back on Atlantis.
"Honey you bring me the nicest things," Janet told me with a smile as she looked at her specimen she could dissect.
"That's what you said when I brought you the arm of that Wraith we have in the holding cell," I replied.
"Yes well…it was true. At least you know now they can't regrow ripped off limbs," said Janet.
"He shouldn't have tried to get all grabby. The taunting session afterwards of how much better my regeneration powers are was so fun," I replied.
"Go bother Elizabeth…I have a bug to dissect," said Janet with a smile.
"A bother am I…for that wench I'm staying right here and watching you work," I informed my wife as I pressed myself to her back and whispered into her ear while pinching her bum on the word wench.
"You're such a scamp honey…alright you can stay but no talking," replied Janet.
I enjoyed watching my wife dissect the ugliness which is the bug that tried to attack me.
Over the course of the next week or so the various members of the expedition took turns working the fields of food we planted on the mainland. Due to growth rate enhancing technology the first crop only took a couple of weeks to be ready for harvest. Our food stores onboard our ships are vast but it is always nice to have freshly grown produce. It's not really energy efficient to import food from Earth. That is only done if necessary.
August 14th 2004…
"Does any of this look familiar to you Teyla," I asked our Athosian guide as I piloted the cloaked gateship further from the gate.
"No I do not believe this is a world I have visited before," replied Teyla.
"With no land marks how can you tell," asked Ford.
"It is difficult by air but every world is unique in its own way," she answered.
"I've heard a lot of reports from SG teams on missions like this one, especially the mission reports of Colonel Samantha Carter. Anyway apparently there are remarkable similarities between worlds that support life. It makes sense really. For example the color of the sky is just a product..," began Rodney before being cut off as the gateship shook.
"Hold on we are entering the dampening field now," I announced while I activated the counter field to protect our ship from the Ancient dampening field's effects.
"So how long will it take to recharge this thing anyway," asked Ford as we stepped out of the gateship.
"No more than a day with the more powerful generator we brought with us," I answered.
"Alright let's get started," Rodney spoke up as I dialed up the counter field to protect the surrounding vicinity.
Before Rodney could move more than a few meters several teenagers came out of the woods with war paint on their faces and bows pointed at us.
"Hello," I greeted as I held up my zat gun.
Our personal shields were also modified before the mission to create a counter field around us.
"We are not here to harm you in any way. We arrived through the Stargate," Teyla informed the children calmly.
"I don't think they understand," said Ford.
"I believe they do," replied Teyla.
"You're a full grown," commented one.
"How very observant of you," I replied.
"You need to see the elders," he answered.
"Ok lead the way," I suggested but never lowering my shield.
"Full grown," asked Ford as we walked.
We were led to a village in the trees. As we waited for the children to climb up the rope ladder to the tree houses above Teyla noticed a pile of artifacts over to the side.
"Harry," she said to draw my attention.
"Now where'd they get that," asked Ford as we looked at the wraith drone (foot soldier) armor.
"It looks like a shrine," said Teyla.
"You don't think they worship the wraith do you," asked Ford.
"That would be disturbing," I said as Rodney nodded his agreement.
"Wraith bones," said the child who led us here.
"Yeah we know," I said.
"Its death bird fell out of the sky years ago. We keep it here to remind us of how life used to be," the boy explained.
It was obvious the children had moved in after the Ancient field was erected.
"The elders are ready," informed the teen as a younger boy whispered into his ear.
We climbed up into the tree house to find the elders were slightly young adults.
"Hello I'm Harry. This is Teyla, Ford, and Rodney," I introduced.
"I'm Keras one of the village elders," replied one of the teens.
"As one of the elders how old are you," I asked.
"Twenty-four," answered Keras.
"How did you get here Harry," asked Keras.
"We used the Stargate to travel from our world to yours. You do know of the Stargate," I asked as I projected a hologram of said device.
"Magic," a second elder whispered.
"No one has come through the well for nearly five hundred years. And you are all older than twenty-four," asked Keras.
"Ford how old are you," I asked.
"Twenty-five sir," he answered.
"Is that a problem," I asked.
"Please sit," asked Keras as he took off his head dress.
"They are trespassers Keras. We don't have to explain ourselves," said a second elder before Keras raised his hand to silence him.
"I apologize. You are familiar with the wraith," asked Keras after we sat.
"Yes we are devoted to bringing about their destruction," I replied.
"The wraith used to farm our planet as we used to farm livestock and beasts of burden only we were their herd," said Keras.
"Yeah they seem to do that everywhere," commented Ford.
"Our ancestors fought them but our weapons were not strong enough. Our people tried to hide from them but they were always found. None died peacefully…none could enter into the eternal rest," continued Keras.
"Eternal rest," asked Rodney.
"To die at the hands of the wraith, to breath your last breath amongst such hatred and evil…there is no way to move peacefully into the next world when that is your fate. My ancestors decided that to beat the wraith we must learn to think as they think. We ensured that we would never provide the wraith with a crop worth picking," said Keras.
"By not allowing yourselves to grow older than twenty-four," I said.
"On the eve of our twenty fifth year we make the sacrifice both for our people and for our own safe passage into the eternal rest. We take our own lives. And so the wraith have not returned for nearly five hundred years," finished Keras.
"Wow…Keras I hate to break it to you but the Wraith don't come back because their technology…their magic does not work here. Point this at me and pull this trigger," I instructed as I handed him my zat gun.
He did as instructed but nothing happened.
"Now watch," I showed him as I did the same thing but pointed the zat at Ford.
The zat blast impacted harmlessly onto Ford's shield.
"But why wouldn't their technology…as you call your magic work here," asked Keras.
"There is a device left here by our ancient ancestors which blocks the wraith technology from working. Follow us and I will show you the device," I instructed.
We took the elders to the device.
"This has been here for a long time. Why did you come here," asked Keras.
"We came to recharge the power source in the field generator. It would have stopped working in a few decades if we don't do this," answered Rodney.
"Will you stop the sacrifice," asked Teyla.
"If you can prove what you say is really true," agreed the elder who Keras had introduced on the walk here as Aries.
Once we set the ZPM charging we took the elders up into orbit inside of the gateship. This along with answering their questions proved we were sufficiently knowledge in magic to create such a device as the dampening field to the young adults. They agreed to suspend the sacrifice. The field had originally been created as a place where any Alterans on the run from the wraith could escape to until help could be contacted. It was also a second bolt hole should Atlantis ever fall. There were several more field generators throughout the Pegasus galaxy set up but not activated should the need have arisen.
It was not set to cover a lot of area because the Ancients didn't think it was necessary for a bolt hole. I made the adjustments to increase the field's encompassed area so the population could grow a bit but I still warned them to make sure they didn't overpopulate the area. Giving them the directions to make an effective birth control which could be made from their surrounding plants would certainly help the process of population management.
August 20th 2004…
"Reliable power generation is one of our greatest concerns. With this project we hope soon to be able to convert and utilize the intense heat trapped beneath the surface of our planet," explained Chancellor Druhin, the Hoffan leader, as he led us down a long underground passage.
"Geothermal energy what using this," asked Rodney as he pointed at the equipment Druhin was showing us.
"Do you have any idea how complex geothermal energy is," began Rodney.
"Rodney quiet…Chancellor this design should help you a lot," I spoke up as a book materialized via transporter beam in my hand, called down by my neural interface.
The book contained a very efficient geothermal energy tap. Aristotle had the orbiting escort ship synthesize it with its energy to matter converter (i.e. transporter technology/beam) and shoot it down to me.
"Thank you so much," said Druhin gratefully as he read the book's title, The Science of Geothermal Energy.
"Not a problem," I replied.
"Since the last wraith culling we have worked diligently to rebuild our society," replied the chancellor.
"Are you not concerned that your efforts will attract the attention of the wraith," asked Teyla.
"Yes, but we refuse to let that stop us from striving to reach our potential. To do otherwise would simply mean victory for them. However we currently are working on a viable defense," answered the Hoffan leader.
"Defense…I take it that it took the two days we've been here for you to learn to trust us," I asked curiously.
"What sort of defense," asked Teyla.
"Something that we hope will protect us from the next wraith culling," answered Druhin.
"So you are expecting it to happen again," commented Rodney.
"Of course…but if the wraith return as they have historically they won't be here for at least another fifty years," answered Druhin.
"How about that weapon," I asked.
"Yes, yes if you will just come this way," replied Druhin before leading us off.
"Chancellor your estimates on when the wraith will return are a bit off. They are waking up. We defended ourselves when they attacked which caused them to wake up," I answered.
"This is most troubling," replied Druhin, visibly upset.
"Perhaps with our help you can speed up the development of your weapon. There might be other ways we can help your people against the wraith," I reassured.
The man nodded his agreement before showing us on.
"Reminds you of area 51 doesn't it," asked Rodney.
"Circa 1918," I agreed.
"I don't think area 51 was around in 1918 sir," said Ford.
"That's what they want you to think," I said with a smirk.
"I don't think there's a chance in hell these people could have a weapon that," began Ford.
"You would be surprised Lieutenant. We once encountered a civilization at around this stage which had a substitute for a Goauld symbiote," I interrupted.
"Dr. Demire I think you'll find this intriguing," said Druhin as he held up a corked vial of purple liquid.
"Oh I do…I most definitely do," I replied as I analyzed the liquid with my hand scanner.
"What is it," asked Rodney.
"Something that we hope will one day make us completely immune to the wraith," announced Druhin.
We soon left back to Atlantis to discuss the situation with Elizabeth and Ayiana.
"According to Chancellor Druhin their serum is still several years away from completion," explained Teyla after we finished summarizing the chemical.
"I'd say given their current level of technology that could be an understatement," commented Rodney.
"I wouldn't count them out yet. This serum would work if Janet and I toyed around with it for a few weeks but you would expect high casualties," spoke up Ayiana as she analyzed the sample provided.
"I suggest Janet and Ayiana can work on the serum back here while I go work on it with the Hoffan scientists. Coming at it from two directions might yield different results. I would also like to help the Hoffans build an infrastructure better suited to surviving a wraith culling," I stated.
"I agree with that. What about you Ayiana," asked Elizabeth.
"Sounds good," agreed my Ancient wife.
Hoffan…
"What they have mastered considering the circumstances is quite impressive," I commented as we waited in a Hoffan lab for the head of the serum research.
"It is our people's legacy. This room represents hundreds of years of medical knowledge. I am Perna chief scientist for the project," greeted the rather attractive blond in a white uniform.
"I'm Dr. Harry Demire and this is Teyla, Dr. McKay, and Lt. Aiden Ford," I introduced.
"I hope you will find our facilities suitable," Perna told me.
"They will be fine. Most of our equipment is rather portable," I replied.
The others left for a tour of the Hoffan city while I began work with Perna.
"His name was Feral Mylan. Before he died in the last culling he was one of our most celebrated medical researchers. He was the one who found it," explained Perna excitedly.
"Found what," I asked.
"The key…his journals tell of one man who survived an encounter with a wraith. Feral and his team discovered that this man possessed a unique protein, one that enabled him to resist the chemical released by the wraith to precipitate draining of life from their victims. After painstaking trial and error," continued Perna.
"Feral made a copy of the protein," finished.
"He was eventually able to create a prototype of a drug designed to interfere with the wraith feeding process."
"Did it work," I asked.
"Feral was killed before the drug could be used to defend Hoff," answered Perna.
"And it has been your job to make sure his work has not been in vain…quite the responsibility," I said.
"It is a great honor," she replied.
"Feral's research materials were safeguarded against the culling as well, including carefully preserved wraith cell samples which we still use in our work today. Please see for yourself," asked Perna as she set the cells in a microscope.
"Here let's get a better look," I told her with a kind smile.
With a quick call to my ship overhead an Alteran microscope beamed into my hand.
"Amazing," gasped Perna.
"You haven't seen anything yet," I told her as I set the wraith cells in the scanner.
Perna gasped in awe as the cells were projected in high resolution via hologram above the Alteran device.
"I have never seen devices such as these," Perna told me excitedly.
"The work you've done refining the drug has been good up until now. With all of this we can make it better. From what I can tell your biggest problem is that the test inoculations failed to show enough of a presence in human cells to be effective," I explained.
"What we need is a better delivery system," said Perna.
"Exactly and the best place to start is to recreate the key protein in the serum and work our way up from there. Now if we can avoid having to re-engineer it from a natural source and make an entirely synthetic version it should ultimately increase the efficiency," I replied.
"Such a thing is possible," asked Perna in shock.
"Anything is possible if you're willing to give it a go," I answered.
"You speak differently than the others," said Perna in reference to my English accent.
"I'm from a different part of our home planet than the others," I answered.
"What is it like?"
"Beautiful," I replied.
"I meant your world…it must be so peaceful there knowing that the wraith will not come," replied Perna.
"Up until recently we were at war with this species," I replied as I projected a hologram of a Goauld as it entered a human and took control.
"How horrible…to be trapped in your own body…it might actually be more horrible than the wraith," gasped Perna.
"Do not worry Perna. We will defeat the wraith…one way or another. If you like when we take a break from work I can take you on a holographic tour of my world," I offered.
"That would be nice…but are you sure we should be taking a break," asked Perna.
"All work and no play makes Jack a very dull boy," I replied.
She laughed but got the gist of what I was saying. We soon got to work. Aristotle frightened Perna at first when he uncloaked and began to help us with our work but she soon warmed up to the replicat.
"Your world is so amazing," gushed Perna after we finished watching the holographic tour of earth.
"There are more amazing sights all over the universe," I told her before leaning in and kissing her lips softly.
After I broke the kiss she smiled at me and leaned in to kiss me harder. We were alone in the holo room onboard our orbiting escort Hatac. Perna moved quickly to straddle my hips.
"I have wanted you since we first met," gasped Perna as I kissed along her throat and neck while removing her lab coat, then her shirt.
"Same here," I moaned as she ground her soaked mound down on my bulge.

"One hundred percent cellular penetration in all five test inoculations, incredible," said Druhin as he read the preliminary report Perna and I just gave him.
"We still have a lot to do but we can go ahead and trial a human test after I pick up a new wraith," I informed Druhin.
"A new one…I assume that means you had an old one. What happened to it," asked the Chancellor curiously.
"I…I uh kind of got a bit upset with him when he tried to feed off of me. I may have ripped his arm off and beat him to death with it," I said sheepishly as I rubbed the back of my head.
Perna and Druhin were staring at me in shock.
"Yes…well how long do you think it will take you to acquire the wraith," asked Druhin, not quite sure how to respond to my earlier statement.
"Oh a few hours…it just depends on how quickly we can locate one on the ground. It's a simple matter of beaming the bastard up into a holding cell," I explained.
"Amazing," replied Druhin.
It only took us an hour and another few to prep for the test. There was no useless chattering about ethics due to my wives all knowing the tests would happen anyway.
When the terminally ill man entered the wraith's holding cell he did so with an air of determination. He was doing this to save his people and stop the wraith.
"He is weak," said the wraith just before he latched on and tried to feed.
The wraith pulled his hand away in shock after he couldn't feed. He turned and faced the other direction with hands on his hips.
"Take him for his reward," I ordered Rodney as the terminally ill man walked out of the cell.
"What is his reward," Druhin asked curiously.
"He will be cured of all his physical ailments in one of our healing chambers," I answered which caused the Chancellor to break out in a smile.
"You are both heroes of the Hoffan people," Druhin informed Perna and I as he handed us glasses of wine.
"I know you wanted to go ahead with large scale inoculations Chancellor but I must advise against that action. I've just learned that the wraith prisoner was killed by the serum," I stated.
"If anything that is good news…why should we not inoculate our people," asked Druhin in confusion.
"Because the wraith will wipe your people from existence once they learn of the serum. They couldn't risk your resistance being transferred to subsequent generations of their food supply. Instead I have a counter proposal," I explained.
"I'm listening," the Chancellor replied as my mild compulsion let him listen to reason.
"My people are allied with a race called the Tokra. They have invented a technology we call Tokra tunnel crystals. These crystals create near instantaneous underground tunnels capable of sustaining life forms with no problem for long periods of time. The tunnels can be formed into any shape. I propose we build massive underground caverns with connecting tunnels leading into the basements of all your houses. We have technology capable of shielding your people from detection by the wraith. I can deploy a long range subspace sensor satellite capable of detecting wraith ships approaching from many light years away."
"When you get warning so will we…we can bring several very powerful cloaked ships to defend your planet. An iris over your Stargate will prevent an attack by wraith darts. You can distribute the serum to small groups at a time. We will leave a cloaked Alkesh in orbit which can beam your inoculated groups up when the ones who fall ill show up and heal them in our healing chambers. There will be a significant portion of your population that would be killed by inoculation in the serum's current form. We can prevent that by going slow," I explained.
"That sounds like an amazing offer and I would be a fool to turn it down," replied Druhin.
"I think this is the beginning of a brighter future for your people," I told Druhin as I shook his hand with Perna leaning into my side, her arm wrapped around my waist.
September 10th 2004, Atlantis Command…
"Sending the probe now," I announced to my waiting team as the anti grav version of a MALP floated through the active Stargate while cloaked.
"Woh wonky energy fog," commented Jeannie as she monitored the readings.
"It's not actually fog…there is no actual water vapor in the atmosphere," said Rodney as he looked over his sister's shoulder.
"Shut up Meredith…it's basically fog," instructed Jeannie who refused to use Rodney's preferred name.
Reaching over I hit the kill switch to shut down the gate.
"Why did you do that," asked Elizabeth for the benefit of those not in the know.
"That energy fog was sentient. If we had tried to dial out from there many of those energy based life forms would have died," I explained as I pointed out the details in the readings.
"Oh…I missed that," said Jeannie.
"I guess that's another probe we lost," said Rodney.
"Yes…you certainly do enjoy a good probing Rodney," I said with a smirk.
We all had a laugh at the expense of Rodney who could not come up with a good reply.
September 17th 2004…
"Is the shield generator in place," I asked Rodney as he returned from the mainland.
"Yes those crops will be safe through the storm," answered my brother in law.
The storm was actually two hurricanes all of our ships easily saw from orbit as they merge and become a super hurricane covering twenty percent of the planet.
"Good we are just about to start here," Jeannie informed her brother.
"Commencing crystal stimulator delivery," announced Ayiana as she typed in the activation code.
All around the perimeter of the Atlantis shield balls of white energy began to form as the remote transporters recently installed in the city beamed modified Tokra crystals into prearranged locations on the ocean floor. Almost immediately the nanites inside the crystal packages began manipulating the crystal growth stimulators to transform the minerals in the ocean floor into crystals. Crystals grew up higher and higher in a curve to match the shape of the shield. Soon they merged together at the top until the shield was completely surrounded by a thick dome of clear crystal.
"Beautiful," gasped Elizabeth as we could see everything via the holographic projection from the visual sensors.
"Scans indicate that the dome is strong enough to easily hold back the ocean," I reported.
"Dropping shield," replied Ayiana.
A thin layer of water that was compressed between the shield and the crystal dome was released in what looked like rain. We all stood up and walked out through the nearby doors onto the balcony. The moist atmosphere hit us as we looked through the crystal at the surrounding ocean.
"Well this will definitely eliminate much of the drain on our power systems," commented Jeannie as she looked on in awe.
"Aristotle activate the camouflage," I ordered my companion.
The dome suddenly became a dark brownish-black color as the nanites imbedded within the crystal manipulated the phase of the minerals. A holographic overlay would provide the image of natural rock formations on and surrounding the dome so that it would look like a small volcano on the ocean floor to any visual sensors. The sensor dispersion field emitted by the nanites would fool any other type of sensors unless they were extremely powerful, something we have since determined from the captured wraith dart the wraith sensors are likely not.
"Fantastic," beamed Elizabeth at the success of our endeavor.
Aristotle soon turned the dome back to gleaming crystal. Over the next several days we enjoyed watching the storm play across the surface of the ocean above from the safety of our protected underwater city.
November 15th 2004…
"You ok Dr. Gall," I asked the scientist as we cruised through our home system on our way to an Ancient satellite.
"I uh get motion sickness," Gall replied as he fanned himself.
"This Alkesh has inertial dampeners…you shouldn't feel a thing," I told him.
"I know we are moving and that's enough for me," answered Gall.
"Wouldn't it have been better to bring your sister," I asked Rodney in a whisper.
"Brendan was the one who discovered the Lagrangian point satellite is out here. Elizabeth felt he should see it for himself," answered Rodney.
"Oh my god," gasped Gall when the satellite came into view.
"Holding station at 1000 meters," I announced.
"Almost half a mile away and it's filling the windshield. This thing is enormous," commented Rodney.
"This thing is as large as one of our Hatac ships. This might be the single largest weapons platform ever constructed," said Gall in amazement.
"It was probably the Ancient's last line of defense before Atlantis," added Rodney.
"Are you getting any energy readings," Dr. Abrams asked Gall.
"Negative," said Gall.
"Well we have our work cut out for us repairing and recharging this baby. We'd best get started," I announced.
"Wait I'm getting something on the ultra low frequency range," Abrams announced.
He put the sound on the speakers. It sounded like a pulsing siren.
"Direction," I asked.
"The planet," Abrams said as the gateship brought it up on the screen.
"It's a distress call…a wraith distress call," read Rodney.
"Aristotle order a Hatac here immediately," I instructed my replicat.
"Are you sure it's wraith…in this solar system," asked Elizabeth a few minutes later.
"I know celestially speaking it's right in our back yard," agreed Rodney.
"We figure the Ancient satellite shot the wraith ship down in the final battle for Atlantis," I added.
"Alright guys be careful. The Hatac should be there in a few minutes," informed Elizabeth before we took off for the planet.
"Alright let's remember where we parked," I called as I remotely cloaked the Alkesh after we disembarked.
"Why didn't we just land next to the ship," asked Gall a few minutes later.
"A precaution," I replied.
"A precaution for what…the wraith ship crashed thousands of years ago," asked Abrams.
"Automated defenses," I suggested.
"I never thought of that," said Gall.
"Don't worry Brendan we weren't all built for field work," said Rodney as he breathed hard from the walk.
"Seriously we're almost there right," Rodney asked me quietly.
"What's that," asked Abrams as an energy firefly flew out of a sulfur vent.
"Guys don't worry. We've encountered these things back in the Milky Way. Your shields will block them," I informed them.
"And if they couldn't block them what would these things do," asked Gall.
"A swarm of these suckers can kill a person," I answered calmly.
"Leave it be and it will leave us be," I suggested as we continued walking.
I felt Bob reach out of my aura and swallow the energy bug as a snack. Luckily the others didn't notice. We soon came upon the crashed wraith cruiser.
"Have you seen one like this before," asked Abrams.
"From the Ancient intel I would say this is a wraith cruiser. They escort the hive ships," I explained.
"There are still some skeletons down there. I guess not everyone died in the crash. Are you picking up any life signs," I asked Rodney who was carrying the Ancient life signs detector.
"I think we can rule that out," objected Rodney.
"Wraith are biologically immortal, check," I ordered.
"The ship is clear," answered Rodney.
"Well still keep your shields up…life signs don't show up if the wraith is in hibernation according to the intel," I informed the others before leading them towards the ship.
Just before we entered the ship I dropped back into the formation now standard for exploratory missions. One team member always lags behind with a personal cloak activated. If the team is attacked the attacker is in for a surprise.
"Picking up faint power readings," whispered Rodney.
"Obviously…something had to be powering the distress beacon," I commented over the neural link.
We began exploring further into the ship.
"Get your ass back here Gall," I ordered over the link as I sensed the man was going off on his own.
"Sorry," he apologized sheepishly a moment later when he rejoined us.
"This guy looks like he just laid down and died," Abrams commented when we came upon a cob web covered wraith.
"He's remarkably preserved," said Rodney.
"Or it wasn't that long ago," I added.
"Wait a second…this one has been fed off of by another wraith, most likely as a last resort," I pointed out as I noticed the hole in the corpses' uniform.
"I guess something tried to survive as long as possible," Abrams speculated.
"Let's move on," I ordered.
We soon came into a room full of human corpses.
"I think we just figured out what this ship is for," I stated.
"I don't understand," said Gall.
"The wraith cocoon humans to save for a later meal. This is a supply ship…probably on its way to feed the wraith who were laying siege to Atlantis," explained Rodney.
"Alright you three…I want you to transport back to the ship now. It's looking more and more like a wraith might have survived. I'll take care of it," I ordered.
"Gladly," said Gall before all three disappeared in a white flash of light.
"Here suck head…come and get it," I called as I decloaked, much like I did years ago in my home reality while hunting vamps.
It wasn't long until the lone survivor dropped down behind me.
"Hello ugly fucker," I greeted.
He growled at me and shot his hand forward to feed on me. He hissed in anger when his feeding hand met my shield. I brought my hand up and launched the wraith back into a wall with my force weapon. With a mental switch triggered via the neural interface the energy output of the force weapon changed to that of a zat gun energy. The blast was now calibrated to work on wraith physiology, tested upon many wraith.
The wraith hissed in agony but didn't stay down.
"Someone got powerful over the last ten thousand years," I stated.
"You cannot beat me," crowed the wraith with the insanity that comes from being alone for ten thousand years.
"Wanna bet," I asked before surging forward and punching the wraith with very little of my true strength in the side of the head.
He was out like a light. I transported him to a holding cell on the orbiting Hatac before making my way out of the wraith cruiser.
"Transport it up," I ordered Aristotle.
My replicat companion targeted the orbiting Hatac's transporters on the cruiser and we watched as the entire vessel disappeared into the energy storage buffer of the transporter. I was soon back on the Alkesh heading back to Atlantis. When we got there a new crystal structure was waiting for us beside the dome of Atlantis. Transporting the cruiser down into its new "garage" my team called it a day while the scientists on Atlantis began salivating over the new toy they had to play with.
November 22nd 2004…
"7549," said Jeannie.
"Oh please prime," replied Rodney.
"4021," said Rodney.
"Nice try…not prime," Jeannie answered.
"Ford 599," said Rodney.
"I don't care if it's a prime number or not," answered Ford.
"Prime…now leave Ford alone," I answered.
Jeannie and Rodney have been playing Prime, Not Prime for the last hour as we've explored the corridors of the city in which the shield failed before we arrived. We are checking for structural damage.
"So Harry what's it like out there in the suburbs today," asked Elizabeth over the radio.
"Essentially with the exception of the upper level storage room, which the lovely and talented Dumay informs me is no immediate danger, this pier is in relatively good shape," I answered my wife.
"Even after all that flooding," asked Elizabeth.
"Yes…it may not look pretty but from an engineering perspective it's all good," I answered.
"Ok then you should probably head on back," suggested Elizabeth.
"Will do," I answered.
"Alright guys good work today. Let's go home," I announced before starting to leave.
"Wait we're missing Johnson and Wagner," Jeannie informed me.
"Aristotle track," I ordered.
The group followed the replicat as he quickly tracked the life signs of our lost team members.
"We need backup…they're coming at us," screamed Johnson over the radio.
We soon arrived to find Wagner on the floor dead and Johnson quickly approaching the same state.
"They didn't have their shields activated," I swore.
"Harry it is a nanite virus causing hallucinations and a brain aneurism," Aristotle informed me.
"Kill it," I ordered.
My pet jumped on Johnson's lap and pressed his nose to the woman's forehead. I saw the liquid nanites come off of Aristotle and flow into Johnson. Soon Johnson calmed down as the more versatile nanites from Aristotle won the battle.
"Now get them out of Wagner so we can transport him up to a healing bed," I instructed.
A few minutes later Wagner was standing before us again alive and well. In the intervening minutes my replicat had hunted down the virus and eliminated all traces of it.
"Next time you better have your shields activated when exploring these sections of the city," I censured them.
"Yes sir," they both agreed.
We were soon back in the main section of the city. Later analysis of the lab revealed that the virus was created to deal with the human servants of the wraith. In exchange for service some humans were granted new life by a reverse wraith feeding process. The wraith could turn back years on a human body. The Ancients wanted an effective method of taking these followers out. The project was never finished because the targeting process wasn't perfected. In their search of the target's memories to determine if the subject was a wraith follower the nanites caused horrifying hallucinations.
November 29th 2004…
I wheeled the Alkesh around and came back at the darts attacking us. A plasma blast winged one of the darts. But the other was still firing at us. Luckily our shield was absorbing the wraith weapons fire.
"Where did they come from," asked Teyla.
"Either they came through the gate or there is a hive ship nearby," I answered.
"Why aren't you cloaking and getting us out of here," asked an alarmed Rodney.
"We need to test ourselves against the wraith. A Hatac is already on its way. If the hive ship does show up we can find out who kicks more ass," I answered.
"Hang on," I called out as I sensed the ascended being about to pass through our ship after destroying the pursuing dart.
"The wraith darts have been destroyed," said a relieved Teyla.
"What the hell was that," asked Ford.
"What do you say we find out," I said as I piloted towards the planet.
We landed cloaked near a small village.
"Hi," I greeted one of the scared villagers as they all stopped to stare.
The gate is in orbit so it is likely they have never met any offworlders before. By the time a monk came to greet us the whole village was staring.
"Welcome," greeted the red robed monk with a hand raised in greeting.
"I am Zarah, one of the abbots of Proculas," greeted the monk.
"I'm Harry, this is Teyla, Ford, and McKay," I introduced.
"Please come," Zarah invited us into his hut.
"This is the first time, at least in my own lifetime, that people from another land have come to us," Zarah informed us with a smile after we were seated.
"We came by spaceship. It allows us to travel from one world to another," I explained as I projected a hologram of our ship.
"From another world," asked Zarah in surprise.
"From the stars you see in the night sky…we are peaceful explorers," added Teyla.
"Then glory to Athar for bringing you here safely," Zarah announced.
"Athar," Ford asked.
"The provider and protector of all…surely you know," asked Zarah.
"Athar is known by many names among the stars," answered Teyla.
"Is Athar around? We'd like to talk to him…we're friends," said Rodney.
"Athar is friend to all and with us always," answered Zarah as he breathed deeply.
"Of course…hi Athar," mocked Rodney.
"What Dr. McKay means is that we wish to offer our thanks. We were attacked by the wraith and might have been killed if not for Athar's intervention," Teyla explained.
"Wraith," asked Zarah in confusion.
I showed him what a wraith was with holograms. Naturally Zarah was horrified. We then learned that Zarah's people have never encountered the wraith.
"If you excuse me I will go tell the other abbots of what is happening before we go to meet with Chaya, the high priestess of Athar," Zarah informed us before leaving.
"Well this just confirms it. This planet is protected by an Ancient weapon," said Rodney.
"Does it," asked Ford.
"Of course…there is no other explanation," argued Rodney.
"Yes there is Rodney. I believe it is more likely that this planet is protected by a banished ascended being. I've had dealings with them in the past. I want you all to follow my lead on this. You don't want to piss one of them off. Rodney you just shouldn't speak at all," I instructed.
"I will do no such thing," protested McKay.
"Oh yes you will," I told him as I pulled out a lemon and held it towards him.
"Ok..ok…damn you Jeannie, you betrayed me," whimpered Rodney.
Teyla and Ford were looking at Rodney strangely.
"He is very allergic to lemons," I explained.
We were soon on our way to meet Chaya.
"How much further," asked Rodney.
I held up the lemon in answer and heard a whimper from Rodney.
"Glory to Athar," Zarah greeted Chaya when we arrived.
"Welcome you may rest," Chaya responded.
"Thank you sister," Zarah said before leaving.
Chaya is even more beautiful in person than in the canon shows of my home reality.
"You're new to Proculas," said Chaya.
"Yes we are. Harry Demire," I greeted as I held out my hand.
"I am called Chaya Sar," she replied as she grasped my hand with both of hers.
"And you are Teyla, Lt. Ford, and Dr. McKay," Chaya said as she nodded to each in turn.
"It's a pleasure to meet you Chaya," I answered her with my most charming smile.
I'm restraining my aura so that Chaya will not sense it although she might have trouble in her current form. Chaya is sacrificing a lot of her ascended powers to stay in physical form. She can return to energy at a moment's notice but a lot of her enhanced senses are gone.
"You must be tired after such a long journey…shall I prepare some tea for us," Chaya asked.
"I would love that," I agreed.
Later…
"And where do they come from these wraith," asked Chaya, playing dumb.
"We are not sure of their exact origins but they seem to be everywhere in this galaxy," I answered.
"It's terrifying; truly terrifying…my heart goes out to your people Teyla."
"It is not only my people who suffer Chaya. The wraith have awakened from a long sleep and this entire world is safe from the culling that has already begun. Even Atlantis is not safe from the wraith. It is my hope that Athar might grant sanctuary here on Proculas," said Teyla.
"Sanctuary…for so many," replied Chaya in obvious regret.
"Let her decide…don't push it," I said over the bond.
"I shall consult with Athar now," Chaya informed as she stood.
"Please stay here. I don't know how long this will take," Chaya informed us before she left.
My eyes were on her the whole way…looking through that form fitting white dress.
"Doctor we have conveyed your request to our divine mother and although she does not doubt the righteousness of your mission I'm afraid she cannot countenance any other people but hers settling here," announced Chaya as she arrived after a long time away.
"We understand…perhaps there is still much we can learn from each other. I would like to invite you Chaya back to Atlantis to exchange knowledge with our people," I stated.
"This is acceptable," Chaya said quickly.
"Chaya…please you cannot leave," Zarah said in concern.
"Athar is with us always no matter where we are," Chaya reassured as she caused a breeze to blow.
"I understand," Zarah said.
"If it makes you feel any better I can leave one of our ships cloaked in orbit," I offered, realizing that even Chaya was worried about leaving.
"That would be much appreciated," said Chaya with a warm grateful smile.
"I am ready," Chaya told me.
"Then hold my hand tightly," I told her which she did with a smile.
A transporter locked on and took us to the Alkesh we arrived on.
"Welcome to Atlantis," Elizabeth greeted.
"Thank you," Chaya responded as she shook my wife's hand.
"I hope you don't mind but our doctors do require a medical exam of all off planet team members and offworld visitors. But after that perhaps you would like a full tour," asked Elizabeth.
"I would love that," Chaya agreed.
"Harry has already promised to do so," Teyla informed Elizabeth with a smile.
"Of course he has," Elizabeth said while smiling at me with affection.
I led Chaya to the infirmary where Janet was waiting for us.
"Well Chaya it seems you are just as delicious on the inside as you are on the outside," Janet informed Chaya with a grin.
"How do you find them Harry," Janet joked.
"How does this device do what you say it does," asked Chaya about the scanning bed.
"Harry would be better able to explain that," answered Janet.
"Well you see…," I began before explaining in detail how the scanner works.
"I'm impressed…you are both a warrior and a scholar. Did you bring these machines back from your world," asked Chaya as I led her around the halls of the city.
"Some but most are left over from the time of the Atlantians," I answered.
"Do you know what happened to them," asked Chaya.
I think her question was partly because she didn't know the current status of the others. She has been in exile for thousands of years for helping the people of her former world.
"Some returned to earth where quite a few ascended to a higher plane of existence. Most became pricks as they connected with the universe. I've actually met a few descent ascended though that didn't go along with the others. Now granted several were in exile but the others let a few back in," I explained.
"It sounds like you have quite an understanding of these beings," said Chaya in what I could tell was an undercurrent of surprise.
"Well I kind of have a thing for beautiful women…I have yet to meet an unattractive Alteran female," I replied.
"Alteran," she asked curiously but with an intense gaze to her eyes now.
"Umm….yeah that is what the Alterans were called before they went by the name Ancients. I know all of this because one of my wives is an Ancient. She suffered from the plague and was left behind on earth by the others of her kind. She was frozen in the ice caps of our planet until I found her and cured her," I explained.
"Fascinating…and what do you mean wives," asked Chaya.
"Janet and Elizabeth are both my wives. I have many…we don't believe love should be constricted," I simply told her.
Chaya smiled at me in response as I took her out onto one of the balconies.
"Amazing…it's so beautiful," gasped Chaya.
"Yes it is…but not nearly as beautiful as you," I told her.
She smiled beautifully at me before I leaned down and gently kissed her lips. The hot Ancient kissed me back while slipping her tongue into my mouth. My aura flared brightly as my arousal increased when Chaya pressed herself against my body. By that time her lust was great enough that she did not notice.
Insert smut scene here
Chaya moved officially into my apartments on Atlantis when she greeted my other wives living with me. It was a rather pleasurable experience for all of us. Ayiana and Chaya especially got on well. The first time the wraith tested the defenses on Proculas I myself teleported in orbit of the planet and lashed out at the wraith fleet. My wives and I will take turns keeping the planet safe. The Hatac returned to Atlantis when it was obviously not needed.
A few of my Alteran cruisers will also stay cloaked in orbit just in case we are too busy to respond. Chaya herself is now able to maintain corporeal form at will with no effort thanks to her being bonded to me. Her powers are equal to that of Phoenix except they are based in lightning types of energy instead of fire like those of Phoenix. Rodney is being kept from causing any trouble with Chaya like he did in canon by my lovely wife Jeannie. She knows how to keep her brother in line. I heard Rodney's screams of terror often those first few days of Chaya's stay as Jeannie chased him with a lemon juice filled super soaker. It was a truly unique kind of music.
December 6th 2004…
"Happy birthday love," I greeted Elizabeth with a smile as she opened her eyes the morning of her birthday.
"Thank you honey…so what did you get me," she asked excitedly.
"Well this was a tough one. I at first thought about making you a planet or maybe your own universe…but then I've decided that would be a bit over the top. So I made you this locket," I explained as I showed her a heart shaped diamond locket I grew a few days ago.
"It's beautiful," gasped Elizabeth.
"If you open it and think of one of your sister wives or me you'll be hit with a mental image of your last sexual encounter with them along with the last orgasm given to you by them," I told her with a grin.
"Thank you love," she gushed before drawing me into a kiss.
"That's not all I'm giving you. Are you familiar with death by a thousand paper cuts," I asked.
When she nodded her confirmation I continued.
"Well I've adapted it to suit my needs as unconsciousness by a thousand orgasms in many, many ways," I told her as I disappeared beneath the sheets.
A few moments later Elizabeth grasped my hair in her hands while she moaned, "Oh Harry!"
Time dilation fields were a truly exquisite thing as it allowed me to keep my wife in bed gasping my name until she did experience one thousand orgasms.
Part of Ayiana's gift to Elizabeth later that day was presenting her with five gate addresses for Ancient outposts, each with its own ZPM. Missions were planned soon after to look for the power modules.
January 3rd 2005…
"Allina I know I might have said this before but thank you again for letting us in here and helping us through the material," the beautiful woman guiding us through the library of books the protectors of one of the Ancient outpost ZPMs left behind.
"I am happy to do it doctor. I'm sorry that this information is so scattered. I'm afraid we are working on so many projects at once reference materials tend to get misplaced," Allina explained.
"You will never hear me complain about spending more time with a beautiful woman," I told her with a charming smile while letting my aura slip a bit.
"Thank you doctor," Allina replied with a blush as she tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear.
"Harry please," I told her.
"They called themselves the Quindosim, a brotherhood of fifteen monks whose sole purpose was to keep the Patentia or ZPM safe. The brotherhood of the fifteen consisted of a master handler, five protectors, and nine stone carriers. Their greatest fear was that one day the entire brotherhood might be culled by the wraith which would result in the ZPM going missing forever," Allina explained to our group as she handed us some drawings of the brotherhood hierarchy.
"Missing yes but it would not fall into the enemy hands," pointed out Teyla.
"They were trusted with the ZPM. Their hope was that one day the Lantians would return to reclaim it and reward the Suderian people for completing their task," continued Allina.
"So they left hints and clues should the brotherhood be destroyed," I added.
"That's right. The priests created nine stone markers that when united are supposed to reveal the final resting place of the ZPM. So far we've only found three. The etching on the rocks involve many lines and dots. We think it's a map," explained Allina as she passed around one of the stones.
"This looks like an Ancient numbering system," I spoke up.
"That's what we thought. From what we can tell they are the numbers three six and seven," agreed Allina.
"How did you find them," I asked.
"This building used to be their monastery actually. We pieced together some of the information we found here and tracked down the number six and seven stones. We found the number three stone on an unrelated dig just last week," answered Allina.
"Ok I suggest we call it a night since it is getting dark and we can continue the search tomorrow," I suggested.
Later…
"It's a layout of the Suderian villages. The walls of this monastery have protected it for ten thousand years," Allina explained as I stared at the mural.
"It's beautiful," I commented.
"It is…yet my eyes is drawn elsewhere," Allina replied as she smiled at me.
I grinned back at her.
"I'd like to restore it one day but I'm afraid of damaging it, perhaps you could help me Harry," Allina suggested.
"I would be happy to," I replied.
Pulling out my multipurpose hand scanner which also had many other features I tapped out a few commands. Raising the device a bright beam of energy swept out and over the mural. After a few passes from the beam the colors appeared brighter and as good as new.
"Thank you," gushed Allina in excitement.
"Always happy to help a lady," I answered.
We sat down at a bench behind us.
"What was it like growing up in the city of the Ancestors," asked Allina excitedly.
"We did not originally live in the city. You see after the Ancestors or Ancients as we call them were forced to abandon Atlantis after the Wraith war they left back to their original home, my home planet. Much has been lost over time but much has been recently uncovered. We know the Ancients intended for us to return and reclaim the city. That is why we have come. We have journeyed here from a great distance, another galaxy in fact. Do you know what a galaxy is," I asked.
"No," Allina replied.
I began to show her the vast distances involved with a hologram. First I showed her the size of her planet in the biggest length she understood, leagues in her case. Next I showed her the size of her solar system relative to her home planet. From there I traveled the Pegasus galaxy with her, showing her just how many star systems it contained. After that Allina was shown what a galaxy is and exactly how far we have traveled.
"Such power you have to travel such great distances. It is simply amazing," gushed Allina.
"Don't worry you will get there someday," I promised.
"Not if the Wraith don't allow us," lamented Allina.
"You will be rewarded for the help you have given us. We can either build you a network of tunnels beneath your villages where the Wraith cannot detect you along with a system of early warning or we can send you back to our home galaxy where you will be safe from the wraith," I explained.
"That is wonderful. I will have to discuss it with my people," Allina said excitedly.
"Harry it is time for our sparring session," Teyla announced as she walked up.
"I will be right there," I told my Athosian friend.
"Sparring," asked Allina.
"It is a way to practice and increase our fighting skills. You are welcome to watch but I would suggest waiting a while so that we have had time to warm up," I told her before leaving to meet Teyla.
The sparring sessions with Teyla started out as a way to maintain her skills. My skills seem to stay with me no matter how long I go without, part of my nature I suppose. Over time the sessions have evolved to sessions of sexual torture for Teyla. I wear nothing but a pair of gym shorts as we move and often I let my aura free to increase Teyla's arousal. I can constantly smell and taste her arousal in the air as she moves through her paces in her leather skirt with long slits up the side.
Twirl strikes parry, Teyla moves through her form. I return her moves with just above wraith speeds. I quickly learned that Teyla's mixed human wraith DNA gives her wraith speeds even though she doesn't have the strength. After ending up on my back a few times I increased my speed to match and even outpace her a bit. After I ended up on my back after letting Teyla take me I decided to torture her a bit for her win.
"You beat me again Teyla," I told her while stroking her libido with my aura.
"Perhaps or perhaps you let me win," she told me with a smile as she didn't move from her position of straddling my hips.
I could sense the heat of her mound as it rested against my bulge.
"What can I say…I enjoy having a beautiful woman in this position," I purred to her.
Teyla shivered as a wave of lust washed over her at my tone.
"I have a favor to ask of you Harry. I wouldn't normally ask it because one of my people could take care of it but without them here…," she trailed off.
"Ask it and if it is within my power I will do it," I promised already sensing her request.
"I find being around you increases my lust for the companionship of a male. It has been so long since I have been with a man. Please…join together with me…or as I have heard your females describe it…please fuck me Harry," asked Teyla as she ground her soaking mound down on my bulge.
Insert smut scene here
"I've got it," I announced the next morning as I walked into the brotherhood library with a widely grinning Allina and Teyla following behind.
"Got what," asked Ford.
"I know how to find the other stones," I announced.
"Really…I'm amazed you had time with all of the fun you've obviously been having," snarked Rodney crossly.
Rodney had a huge crush on Allina before she saw me. That crush instantly died when Rodney realized that Allina had so easily fallen for, what Rodney felt, were common charms.
"Rodney can I speak to you for a moment," I asked.
"Sure I guess," said Rodney as he followed me to a nearby corner.
"When was the last time you got laid Rodney," I asked in a low voice.
"I lost track several years ago," he answered.
"Ok…I'm going to do you a big favor. Sanir can you come here," I called over to Allina's assistant.
"Yes Dr. Demire," Sanir asked fairly coolly as she doesn't like us much, being a Genii spy and all.
"I would like for you to take special care of Rodney here," I instructed while hitting her with an intense lust spell targeted to Rodney.
Sanir's demeanor instantly changed from coolness to a hungry stare directed at Rodney.
"She will do anything you want Rodney, anything. Go have fun. I'll take care of things here," I ordered.
"You are a god," whispered Rodney at all not realizing how right he was.
"Oh and Rodney use this," I instructed him as I tossed him an object which looked like a cock ring.
"A cock ring," asked Rodney.
"No it's a piece of Ancient tech that makes it impossible for you to get anyone pregnant by killing your sperm as they swim up the pipes so to speak," I explained quietly while Sanir's grin of delight matched Rodney's at this news.
Rodney was yanked from the room by a woman ready to rip his clothes off. I "forgot" to inform Rodney that the ring I gave him will also keep him hard for as long as he desires to be.
"So as I was saying…," I said as I turned to face the room.
"The location of the stones," Allina prompted.
"Yes…where did you find the other three stones," I asked as I projected a holographic map of the area before us.
"Here, here, and there," pointed Allina.
As she pointed to each spot the projected spots highlighted red before lines began connecting the indicated points.
"They're buried in a grid. The number three and seven stones give us two diagonally opposed corners. From that we can extrapolate how big the grid is and where each of the other stones are buried," I explained.
"I guess we better start digging," said Ford.
"No need…Aristotle retrieve," I ordered.
My replicat appeared before us and started connecting with the orbiting escort ship. The powerful sensors onboard the ship locked onto one of the already found stones and used it as a model to scan the projected locations for the others. All of the stones but one appeared before us in flashes of white transporter light.
"You gotta love transporters and sensors," said Ford with a grin as he realized what Aristotle just did.
"The location where the last stone should be contains a buried chamber where I assume the brotherhood hid the ZPM," Aristotle announced.
"You can't just detect it and beam the ZPM out," asked Ford.
"No…if the ZPM is there it is not being used and is therefore not putting out any noticeable power. I wouldn't want to try anyway in case the Ancient who left it hear placed counter measures to prevent such a thing," answered my replicat.
"I guess we are doing this the old fashioned way," I announced before we all disappeared in a flash of white light.
"Aristotle dig," I ordered.
My replicat grew to the size of a saber tooth tiger and soon dug down to the entrance of the hidden chamber.
"It carries the mark of the brotherhood," informed Allina as the cover of the entrance was revealed.
"Open," I commanded Aristotle.
He gripped the entrance in his mouth, his nanites sliding under the lip on both sides to grasp hold, and ripped the lid clear before he spit it out beside us.
"Who wants to go first," asked Ford.
"Aristotle," I prompted.
My replicat shrunk slightly and dived through the hole. Powerful beams of light shot out through his eyes while his scanners searched the area for any traps.
"It's safe," I announced after a few moments as Aristotle informed me over our neural link.
A moment later I dived through the hole and landed softly with the help of the inertial dampening feature of my shield. Soon I caught Allina as she dropped through. Teyla was the last to enter.
"I'll stay up here and keep an eye on things," announced Ford.
"Stay sharp," I ordered.
We found a panel to insert the nine stones so Allina did.
"Do you see this? This is the whole pattern," said Allina.
"The ninth stone must integrate into this raised centerpiece," I said.
"It seems so," agreed Teyla.
"Aristotle find me the ninth stone. Scan any place nearby the brothers would have likely visited," I instructed.
A few moments later Aristotle transported the stone to my hand.
"It was hidden behind the location of this chamber on the mural you restored last night," explained my replicat.
"Very clever," said Allina.
"Now what is the correct placement," asked Allina.
"Aristotle run all possible permutations and scenarios and find one which is most likely a clever puzzle," I instructed.
Before we got a response I felt the alert signal on my neural link going off telling me Ford was just hit with a sleeping agent of some kind. He immediately fell to the ground and acted like he was knocked out.
"We have company," I announced.
A minute or so later we learned who our new arrivals were.
"Aristotle it is time to greet our new guests," I said with a dark smirk.
Aristotle once again morphed to the size of a saber tooth tiger with the teeth to match. I climbed on his back. With a powerful leap he jumped high enough and phased through the ground above until he came out into open air. Screams rent the air as Aristotle moved like lightning, clawing and biting. At the end of the next few moments only the obvious leader was left alive.
"And who might you be," I asked.
"You will never find out," replied the man pinned by Aristotle's massive paw.
"I already know Commander Acastus Kolya, Genii special forces. We've known you were here the whole time," I replied.
Picking up the lurking life signs wasn't difficult. Our technology enhanced hearing allowed us to pick up their every conversation which Aristotle played a few select clips back at that moment.
"So you know who we are and why we are here…now what," asked Kolya smugly.
"Now you die," I answered with a smirk as Aristotle leaned down and bit Kolya's head off.
Aristotle had all the bodies transported into space in a decaying orbit so they would burn up entering the atmosphere.
"A good tactic Ford," I complimented as I helped him.
"Thanks sir…I love it when the bad guys are overconfident," he answered with a smirk.
"Indeed," I replied as Aristotle and I phased through the ground.
"Now as Aristotle was about to inform us the tiles line up in such a way so that a three by three grid is formed where all rows and columns add up to fifteen," I announced before aligning the tiles correctly.
When I placed my hands in the spots to either side of the tile panel the ZPM was ejected from its hiding place in the wall.
A few hours later we had just returned to Allina's planet after safely delivering our second backup ZPM back to Atlantis. We got the unsettling news that a wraith dart had arrived above Atlantis and scanned the area. It was still doing so obviously looking for the city. So far it hasn't found us yet. The dart has been sending transmissions back to a distant point in space which we scanned with the long range sensors on board our ships and the deep space sensors on Atlantis. We found three hive ships heading for Atlantis which would arrive in two weeks.
"Have your people decided on what reward they want yet," I asked my wife after greeting her with a kiss.
"We would like the tunnels and detector system. My people wish to stay and help fight the wraith," Allina answered.
"Good the more the merrier," I replied before getting to work building the same system as the Hoffans now have.
