Aja ... D00h ... da ne bom pozabila ... I DO NOT OWN THAT ... It's the masterpiece from SHOLAY at: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3570245/25/Sooryavansham_The_Dynasty_of_the_Sun

******************************
“Hil-ary-y-y!! Oh, HIL-ary-y-y! Earth to zombie girl! Come in zombie girl!”

Hilary suddenly became aware of a sharp, annoying sound near her ear. Blinking back into focus she was taken aback by seeing a hand snapping its fingers only centimetres from her nose.

“Hey!” Hilary instinctively recoiled and fell back against the couch. A chorus of laughter followed her action and Hilary looked up to see Mariah and Emily standing above her. Mariah pulled her hand away from Hilary’s face. “Hey-y-y” She said again, but this time played along, sticking her lower lip out and crossing her arms in a mock-sulk.

“Alright, alright, no more making fun of little miss spacey here, got that Em? I don’t know why you’re always teasing her so much.” Mariah sent a sly grin at Emily.

“Oh yes, of course, whatever was I thinking?” Emily put a hand to her forehead dramatically and fell onto the couch next to Hilary, acting her part even though everyone knew Mariah was the one teasing Hilary. “I don’t know what got into me; one should never make fun of a girl with a crush after all.” Here she elbowed a spluttering Hilary in the side a few times before grinning at Mariah. “Could turn dangerous.”

{For learning what my reaction was ... read bellow}
“I—I! I do NOT have a crush!” Hilary cried, though the rising heat in her cheeks staunchly told otherwise.

“Su-u-ure you don’t. And you haven’t been sitting here for the past half an hour staring dreamily off into space.” Mariah rolled her eyes. {Well, I do that A LOT}

“I don’t have a crush.” Hilary groused, sinking further into the seat. “I don’t know what gave you that idea.”

“Well, maybe it was because when you weren’t staring at nothing you had your eyes fixed on a certain hot, red-eyed Russian.” Emily drawled with a wide grin. {*Just smile at the thought, Darakna, just smile*}

“WHAT?!” Hilary sat upright, her eyes wide. “No! No!” She waved her arms wildly. “It’s not like that at all I don’t—”

“C’mon Hil, everyone saw how you were practically drooling over Hiwatari when he walked into the room.” Mariah waved one hand, looking away as though it were obvious. {Guilty, here}

Hilary looked between the two girls with an expression akin to a mouse cornered. It wasn’t fair; they were ganging up on her! “I didn’t…” Her denials sounded weak even to her ears. “It didn’t… I didn’t look that bad, did I?”

“Think about it this way, you looked as bad as Mariah here does when Rei gives her one of his cocky, lopsided smirks.” {that's bad} Emily laughed, and Hilary flushed harder. That was pretty bad. {like I said}

Mariah didn’t look so amused. “Well, I doubt you acted any better when you first saw Hiwatari.”

Emily smiled. “Yes, but that was different. The first time I got a good look at him was when I saw him save Max in the facility. And that was damn impressive, if I do say so myself.” {oh, shut it, Em}

“Save Max?” Hilary questioned.

“Yup.” Emily nodded. “There was this huge glass door that was going to fall right on top of Max, when whoosh! Kai just jumps out of nowhere and tackles Max out of the way, just in time. Probably saved his life.”

“Wow…” Hilary, in spite of herself, was impressed, and it came through in her voice. Emily and Mariah exchanged wide grins.

“Wow, Emily, this poor girl has got one major case of Kai-pox.” {the what?}

“Kai-pox?” Hilary asked sarcastically, scrunching up her nose.

“Oh don’t worry; we’ve both gone through it.” {I should hope so! Coz (and I don't wanna sound like Sakura but) KAI IS MINE!}

“No—I mean okay—but…Kai-pox?!” Hilary felt the need to reiterate the point here. {Srsly, guys}

Emily sighed, a look of vague annoyance crossing her features. “I know, it’s so unscientific, but Mariah insisted.”

“Wha-a-at? I think it’s cute.” {U think pink is cute ... okay, on you maybe, but come on (ok, and Rei wasn't that bad of a choice as well)} Mariah smirked, flashing one pointed canine. “It’s better than Kai-osis or Hiwatari-itis, isn’t it?” {I could go for Hiwatari-itis}

Emily lowered her eyelids half way and regarded Mariah over her half-moon glasses in exasperation. “The purpose of comparison is to establish a level of variance. You can’t take a bunch of bad ideas and rank them, it’s redundant.”

“Well gee, Mrs. Smarty-pants, if you’re so witty why don’t you come up with something better?” Mariah returned Emily’s look with one of her own.

Emily’s pursed lips were all the answer Mariah needed for her question.

“But wait, wait a minute. Don’t you…” Hilary looked at Mariah, confusedly. “Don’t you… like… Rei?” {Sam res ... STAY AWAY FROM KAI!} The word ‘like’ seemed odd and unusual on her lips, she hoped the other girls didn’t notice her hesitation. She felt so silly, talking about ‘boys’ like a love-crazy girl. Yet Emily and Mariah made it look so easy.

“Oh, of course!” Mariah looked at Hilary like she’d just asked if the sky was blue. “Of course I like Rei. He’s sweet, handsome, smart, everything I could ever want in a guy… But, you know, that doesn’t mean I can’t… appreciate the finer qualities in other boys… And my, does that Hiwatari have a damn sexy body!” {Underestimation of the year} Mariah grinned predatorily and Hilary gasped.

“Mariah!” Hilary admonished. “Don’t say that?” {Coz it's underestimation of the year}

“Well don’t you agree?” Emily asked, looking at Hilary. “I mean, you couldn’t ask for a better body. {No} And albeit the whole ‘traitor’ thing was a turnoff, but you gotta admit… even just a little, that that bad boy attitude is quite attractive.” {quite nothing =P ... *big guilty smile*}

“I…well, I…” Hilary was once again at a loss for words as both girls watched her.

“C’mon, admit it!” Mariah coaxed.

“Okay, okay! Fine, he’s hot, ok? You happy now?” {Hot doesn't begin to cover it} Hilary caved and blurted out the admission. Oddly enough it wasn’t as hard as she thought it would be. It even made her feel good to say it and she smiled a little.

“There we go! Finally! Now we’re getting somewhere! Acceptance is the first step!” Mariah exclaimed.

“The first step to what?” Emily challenged.

“To getting him to notice her! Now, I admit, Kai is a stuck up snob, but Hilary here seem to be a smart, independent girl here. No way would she let him walk all over her like some love-sick fan-girl. Hiwatari needs to learn some good humility after all; and there’s nothing better to burst his ego bubble than a girl… Now, Hilary here seems to know absolutely nothing about boys—” {LOL}

Hilary protested but her voice was completely unheard as Mariah continued.

“—so I propose we team up to give her some pointers!”

Emily didn’t look convinced. “Hmm… I don’t know. Kai’s a bit… much for a first experience isn’t he?”
{No, he isn't ... like u don't know where I'm going with this}

“Excuse me?! How do you know I’ve never been out with a boy?” Hilary spluttered.

“Because you just said so, dear, now let the big girls talk.” Mariah said without even looking at Hilary. {LOOOOOOOOL}

“Oie! I don’t like to be ignored!”

“Mariah, I just don’t know. Setting someone up is fine… But setting someone up with Kai Hiwatari?” Emily was still unconvinced.
{*BIG SMILE*}

“It’ll be like the ultimate challenge!” Mariah clasped her hand together, looking positively gleeful.
{YEAH, PICK ME! PICK ME!}

“Hey, now what exactly is wrong with Kai anyway?” Hilary, annoyed felt the need to interrupt these girls who’d suddenly and without even asking, thrust themselves into her personal life. How would they know who is good for her or not? “Kai seems like an intelligent, responsible person. It might just be shy, or introverted. There’s nothing wrong with that.” {girl, you srsly don't know what you're talking about ... Kai is P-R-F-E-C-T ... he's the definition of PRFECT and you can't be labeling him}

Emily stared at Hilary as though she’d never seen her before. “Wow, you do have it bad don’t you?” {u keep comming out with these underestimations of the year}

“Hey!”

“Speaking of Mr. Heartthrob, where is he?” Mariah craned her neck over the back of the couch to look around. “I haven’t seen him since the beginning of lunch.”

Emily sent a cursory look around the room. “I don’t see him.”

Hilary then joined the search. “Where do you think he went? I didn’t know we were allowed to leave… he might have just gone to the washroom or something.”

“Ohh… worried are we?” Mariah asked coyly.

“Am not!” Hilary answered hotly.

“Whatever.” Mariah dropped down into the couch and leaned close. “Now tell me, what did you notice first about him? Was it the eyes or his biceps?” {both}

“Mariah!”

“Oooh, maybe it was his cute butt!” {okay, now that's my buissiness ^^}

“MARIAH!”

Svetovni rekord v pisanju knjige ... eno poglave, ki je samo 5 strani dolgo in je praktično že napisana 1/3 prvega dela knjige. Sm se kr ustrašla. Pol sm pa pogledala spredaj pri motivih in se zavedla, da je pravzaprav ŠE FUUUUL do konca. Torej bo prvi del dolg približno 3-4 poglavij ... ampak pol se štale šele začnejo (kar je sicer logično ... prvi del se dogaja vzporedno z zadnjim delom tretje knjige in je ubistvu sam zgodba tamkajšnjih nepoznanih igralcev, ki so pa tu glavni).

Aja, na željo Sholay sm se na DeviantArt upisala (DemonDarakna).

Brian O'Conner: Yeah, so now you owe me a 10 second car.

Itak je Dom cel čas tiho, razen na koncu, k je O'Conner čisto pofentan, pa Dom ubistvu edinkrat skrb zanjga pokaže, pa je taprva stvar k jo O'Conner na robu zavesti reče:

Aha ... pazi to:

Ustrezne kariere za strelca so: sodnik, znanstvenik, astronavt, turstični vodič in potovalni agent.

To samo po sebi ni nič čudnega ...
Potem pa seveda damo, da je Marduk Azazel rojen decembra leta 118, prvega veka ... in je posledično Strelec.
Now, I guess everybody's asking ... Who is Marduk Azazel?
In short?
Je najbolj iskani morilec v zgodovini poznane in nepoznane fantazije.
Sodnik tole me najbolj nasmeje ... ja, lahko je, da se ima za sodnika. Kakor pri Riddicku:
Jones: "Doctors on the battlefield decide who lives and who dies. It's called TRIAGE."
Riddick: "Kept callin' it a murder when I did it."
Em, ja ... Marduk je čisto po Riddicku narjen ... priznam. Ampak z razlogom XP.

Aja, mimogrede ... danes sem dokončala program ... YAY for me!!!
Seveda sem pred tem gledala Anywhere but home ... koncert od Evanescence, ki sem si ga snela + Mamma Mia sve z mamo gledale. Zdaj si pa snemam Daredevil-a ... da malo obudim spomine, kjer sem prvič slišala za Evanescence oz. njihovo musko. (Aja ... pa ne povejte Ursh, ker je bila pomojem danes že tko čisto penasta ker sem zanalašč dala naj kaže, kaj moj MediaPlayer špila in sem skoraj da pol dneva poslušala Evanescence ... plus, avatar imam Amy Lee XP ...
Sploh ne vem, kaj je folku zadnje čase da me na veliko proba spreobrnit od tega kar sem. Mogoče sem malo preveč se začela kazat, pa bi morala biti spet tiho in poslušati in kimati, češ, da je to dobro (pa prvič slišim za stvar) in da tisto tudi meni ni všeč (pa poslušam že celo življenje). Mogoče je pa tudi on pod stresom od faxa, sam da oni ne jamrajo, ampak raje uničujejo lajf nekomu, ki se ali pa se ne pusti.
Zdaj vem, kaj je Saša mislila s: sam pri folku pa res ne smeš nič več rečt, da se pol ne začnejo vtikat vate.
In mislim, da je tudi ona prevzela moj moto: FOLK JE GLUP =)) ... well, it's true).

PS: Malo berem tisto, kar je bilo izpod moje roke napisano prejšnji teden in ugotavljam, da sem v enem tednu fentala več folka k prej v dveh letih skup. XP ... pač blo jih je treba ... tak je začetek zgodbe. Vojna je.

*****
[Teal'c looks around then goes to assist. A bored Vala remains lying on a fallen slab, absently playing with something in her hand. Teal'c and Daniel carry the heavy chest out into the open.]

VALA
Really think this is it?

[Daniel dusts off more of the cover of the chest with a brush.]

DANIEL
Well, it's covered in Ancient writing. These symbols here are part of the oldest dialect I'm aware of. It says: "Safely kept is the...something of old."

[Vala sits up.]

VALA
What's the "something", Daniel?

DANIEL
Well, if I knew for sure, I wouldn't have said "the something..."
(turns to Teal'c)
Why am I answering her?

VALA
Stop your yammering and open it.

DANIEL
We can't just open it.

VALA
Why not?

DANIEL
Well, if this is what I think it is, it's a powerful piece of Ancient technology capable of making anyone who looks into it believe that the Ori...

DANIEL AND VALA
(speaking together)
...are not gods.

DANIEL
As far as we know.

VALA
Well, we already believe that. No harm done. Open it.

DANIEL
I said "as far as we know." There may be other things it's capable of making you believe.

VALA
Maybe...we're supposed to believe those other things too.

DANIEL
You know what? That's beside the point. There's another reason we can't just open it.

VALA
Look at my hands, all right? They are raw and bleeding. I've broken every nail. We've been out here in the scorching heat for days. I haven't showered!

DANIEL
None of us have.

VALA
That is painfully obvious. Now, according to you, this crusty old chest is our salvation from oppression at the hands of the Ori army. Our best—and maybe only—remaining chance that we have. We've dug how many holes in the ground? Help me out here, Muscles.

TEAL'C
Many.

[Exasperated, Daniel tosses his excavation brush aside.]

VALA
Now, all the years the Jaffa were here, they knew that Dakara was the first landing place of the Alterans in this galaxy. You mean to tell me they never looked for Ancient artifacts?

TEAL'C
There were a few artifacts that were excavated and catalogued when the city was being rebuilt. But with the constant change of leadership, little time, or manpower—

VALA
(talking over him)
Yes, yes, yes and blah, blah, blah. But here we are. Finally, we may have found it. The ultimate weapon. So could someone please explain to me why we can't confirm our blessed fortune by simply opening it?!

DANIEL
Because it's sealed shut! It literally won't open.

[Daniel demonstrates.]

VALA
Why didn't you say so?

DANIEL
Well, I was trying to, but you wouldn't stop your yammering.

[Teal'c looks up at the sky, alert at some noise. Vala goes over the equipment and grabs a pickaxe, heading back towards the chest. Daniel stands and hurries over, wrestling with her over the tool.]

DANIEL
Wait! No, no, no, no, no! You can't do that! I told you, this is a piece of technology. You could damage it.

VALA
It's been buried for millions of years, Daniel.

TEAL'C
Quiet!

DANIEL AND VALA
What?

MITCHELL
(over radio)
Hey, kids, guess what?

[Some gunfire can be heard over Mitchell's transmission. The three look up to see Ori fighters soar over their heads.]

MITCHELL
(over radio)
We are under fire.

*****

[In another area of the ruins, Mitchell and Carter exchange fire with Ori soldiers. Both reload their clips.]

MITCHELL
I do not remember sending out invitations to this party.

[They continue shooting. More Ori soldiers continue to arrive.]

CARTER
We have to fall back!

[Mitchell nods. Covering each other, the pair make a controlled retreat.]

ORI SOLDIER
Move ahead.

[The Ori troops advance, taking cover where Mitchell and Carter just were. Mitchell and Carter go through some large metal doors and rejoin their teammates. Teal'c and Daniel are already taking firing positions: Daniel stands by the chest, Teal'c by a standing pillar. Vala hurries over to where Mitchell crouches by a large stone block.]

VALA
What are you doing? We have to go there!

MITCHELL
We know.

CARTER
There's too many of them.

VALA
There's no other way out of here.

MITCHELL
(through gritted teeth)
We know!

VALA
(to Daniel, gesturing at chest)
How about now?

DANIEL
Yeah, now works for me.

[Daniel puts down his P-90 and grabs a hammer and chisel. He starts working at the chest.]

[Daniel's chiseling can be heard from the other side of the doors where the Ori stand ready. The commander arrives.]

ORI SOLDIER
Commander, we have them trapped.

[The commander takes off his helmet and tosses it to the soldier. It is Tomin.]

TOMIN
(yelling to the doorway)
Vala, it's Tomin. Throw down your weapons and surrender, and I promise you will all be spared.

[Vala looks bemused.]

MITCHELL
(low)
That's funny.
(yelling back)
I was just about to say the same thing.

[Vala turns back to Daniel making a "hurry up" gesture". Daniel continues to work at the chest.]

TOMIN
Vala, you have to trust me. Your position has been targeted from space. Comply now, or you will be destroyed.

VALA
(to Mitchell)
I think we have to trust him.

MITCHELL
Jackson?

[Daniel grunts with the efforts to pry open the lid and shakes his head. The chest isn't budging.]

VALA
What if we got them to open it?

[Carter and Mitchell exchange thoughtful looks. Daniel, breathing hard from the exertion, also seems to consider it.]

VALA
Well, it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world, would it?

MITCHELL
(reluctantly)
All right. Invite him in.

[Grim faced, Mitchell sets down his rifle and steps back.]

VALA
(yelling to Tomin)
Um, you can come in!

*****

TOMIN
What are you doing here?

MITCHELL
(deadpan)
Wow, we really are on the same page. Took the words right out of my mouth.

[Frowning, Tomin steps up to Mitchell.]

VALA
How did you know we were here?

PRIOR
The power of the Ori need not be questioned.

[Tomin steps back and bows down. The Prior strides in. It is the same one who used to be the Administrator of Ver Ager, and whom Tomin had previously questioned as to interpretation of the Book of Origin.]

MITCHELL
Oh, here we go.

[Smiling, the Prior turns to Daniel.]

PRIOR
Tell me. What is this artifact you have found?

MITCHELL
Hang on a second. Shouldn't you know that already? Your logic.

DANIEL
No, wait, wait. No need to be difficult here. You want to know what it is, I'll tell you. Inside this Ark is the secret to destroying the armies of the Ori, and I think the last thing you're gonna want to do is open it.

PRIOR
You think I fear the contents?

DANIEL
I—I'm saying you really should.

PRIOR
Open it.

[Two soldiers step forward.]

DANIEL
You didn't hear what I just said?

PRIOR
Open it!

[The soldiers try to lift the lid, but it remains closed.]

ORI SOLDIER
It's sealed shut.

[The Prior nods to Tomin. The soldiers step back as Tomin raises his staff weapon.]

DANIEL
Wait! No!

[Tomin fires, blasting the lid to pieces. Cringing from the debris, Daniel lowers his hands and peeks into the chest. Tomin steps forward and reaches inside. Vala tries to peek from over Mitchell's shoulder. Tomin pulls out some scrolls that crumble into dust in his hands.]

DANIEL
Okay. Not what I was expecting.

PRIOR
Foolhardy are those who do not follow the path.

MITCHELL
Anyone want to bet what he's gonna say next?

PRIOR
Kill them.

MITCHELL
Could've made money on that one.


*****

MARRICK
I believe protocol requires me to notify you that I will be interrogating the prisoner personally.

MITCHELL
What prisoner?

MARRICK
I believe your report refers to him as Tomin. No last name.

MITCHELL
Oh! Right, sorry. I, uh, I get confused. See, we were thinking of him more as...a guest.

MARRICK
(chuckling wryly)
Of course. My mistake. I trust the enemy commander hell-bent on our total annihilation has been given comfortable quarters?

MITCHELL
Yeah. He's had a change of heart.

[Marrick smiles from Landry to Mitchell, then sidles closer.]

MARRICK
Come on, Colonel. Don't all bad guys say that after we capture them?

[Mitchell steps forward, his posture aggressive.]

MITCHELL
Actually, he captured us...and then he surrendered.

*****

LANDRY
Former CIA, black ops.

MITCHELL
Oh, great. So, the IOA is having one of our own spies spy on us?

LANDRY
(nodding)
I have no doubt the IOA chose him carefully.

MITCHELL
Why do I get the feeling we're gonna miss Woolsey?

*****

DANIEL
His consciousness is gone now, but he was the one who helped me build the device that was sent to eliminate the Ori.

[Tomin sits and shifts uncomfortably.]

VALA
We hope. We think that these visions might be remnants of Merlin's memories left behind intentionally to steer us in the direction of the Ark.

[Tomin laughs in disbelief.]

TOMIN
And you think I'm crazy for believing in the Ori?

VALA
Not crazy, Tomin. Just...wrong.

[Tomin seems struck by a sudden thought. He leans forward.]

TOMIN
You've both read the Book of Origin, have you not?

DANIEL
(nodding)
Yes.

TOMIN
(standing)
Do you not remember the part about Ortus Mallum?

DANIEL
You'll have to forgive me, I don't know it by heart.

VALA
Oh. Uh, big book with fine print and not many pictures.

*****

[Mitchell enters the bridge. Several of the crew are already there, preparing for the mission.]

MITCHELL
Pre-flight.

MARKS
We're ready to go, sir.

[Mitchell approaches the command chair and hesitates before committing to sit in it, adopting a pose like Captain Kirk of Star Trek.]

MITCHELL
All right. Weapons to maximum.

MARKS
(nonplussed)
Sir?

MITCHELL
It's a joke, Marks. Make it go.

[Mitchell waves impatiently. Marks presses some buttons.]

******

CARTER
Wh-you got us here. If we showed you a star map, could you direct us to the coordinates of the planet where Celestis is?

[Tomin shrugs and nods.]

MITCHELL
We're talking about the Vatican of the Ori followers, right?

DANIEL
Well, if the fires are out, then it's likely Merlin's device worked and the Ori are dead.

TEAL'C
But the Priors are not.

DANIEL
Well, we didn't come all this way to stop now, did we?

*****

[Mitchell and Carter step out of an elevator. Marrick stands in the corridor, blocking their path.]

MARRICK
Why was I not notified that you had someone onboard with new intel about Ori army activity?

MITCHELL
Well, I'm sure I called for you. There was no answer. Oh wait. I may not have pressed the comm button all the way down. Wow, I must've looked stupid standing there talking to myself. Anyway, if you'll excuse us.


*****

MARKS
(over radio)
Sir, someone has turned on the Asgard core.

[Carter overhears and stops her scanning.]

MITCHELL
(into radio)
What?

CARTER
Who?

MITCHELL
(to Carter)
You really need to ask?

*****

[Tomin digs in an area. Vala studies a handheld scanner while walking near Teal'c.]

VALA
Well, I hate to be the downer at this party, but this is hopeless. I'm not getting any energy readings. So, short of literally looking under every rock and stone on this mountain, I'm not sure what we're supposed to do.

[Teal'c steps closer, looking beyond Vala. She notices Teal'c's distraction and turns.]

[Daniel stands uphill from them, riveted at attention. He sees a shaft of daylight coming through the trees and a glowing, incorporeal vision of Merlin stands over a flat slab of stone before disappearing into the ground beneath. Daniel moves forward.]

VALA
Or we could wait for Daniel to have another one of his visions.

[Daniel approaches the area where Merlin was.]

DANIEL
(calling back)
Guys, I think there's something here.

*****

(ABOUT CREATING A REPLICATOR)

MARRICK
Don't worry, Colonel. It's being contained by a force shield.

CARTER
For now! If you knew anything about these things, you'd know nothing will hold it for long.

MITCHELL
Do you have any idea what it finally took to eradicate these little buggers?

[Marrick nods and sits.]

MARRICK
Exactly why it'll be so effective in neutralizing the Ori fleet.

[Carter spins to Mitchell, flabbergasted.]

MITCHELL
That's your plan? What are you, totally nuts?!

*****

MITCHELL
Yeah, but they can track us in hyperspace, and we can't stay there forever.

[Mitchell starts to leave.]

CARTER
(calling after him)
Look, believe me, if we don't find that replicator or this self-destruct command, "forever"? Not gonna be a big issue.

*****

[The tunnel is clearly man-made, reinforced by stonework. But there is much debris on the ground and hanging from the ceilings. They begin to walk cautiously, their flashlights moving to illuminate the structure.]

MITCHELL
(over radio)
Hey guys, this is Mitchell. We're going to have to beam you aboard immediately.

DANIEL
(into radio)
Wait, you can't. Not yet.

MITCHELL
(over radio)
Yeah, well, Marrick activated the Asgard core, so we're expecting Ori ships around here sometime soon. Plus, we have a little replicator problem, so we're gonna jump into hyperspace to avoid the bad guys while we deal with it.

[Daniel and Teal'c stop short.]

DANIEL
(into radio)
I'm sorry, did you say "replicator problem"?

MITCHELL
(over radio)
Unfortunately, yes, I did.

[Teal'c and Daniel exchange looks.]

*****

[The team stands still, waiting to be beamed to Odyssey.]

TOMIN
What's a replicator?

TEAL'C
You do not wish to know.

MITCHELL
(over radio)
Yeah, it's me again, your friendly neighborhood ship's commander. Uh, looks like you've got a little more time down there. We're having a bit of trouble with the beaming thing at the moment. I promise, you'll be the first to know...

[The signal degrades to static.]

DANIEL
Okay, so... Onward.

[The being moving through the tunnel again. Some time later, they reach an area where boulders have completely blocked the tunnel.]

VALA
What do you think, Muscles?

[Teal'c opens a vest pocket and pulls out a block of C-4 with a detonator attached to it. He begins to pull the tab on the detonator so it can be set off.]

DANIEL
Wait, wait, wait! You can't! We don't know how stable this tunnel is.

TEAL'C
Shall we turn back, then, Daniel Jackson?

DANIEL
(after a moment)
Bombs away.

*****

PRIOR
(turning to look at Landry)
I was wrong. You are not courageous, General. You are without reason. Your planet will burn in all the depths of darkness.

LANDRY
Oh, we'll see about that... There is one thing I do know for sure. If we're going to hell, then you're coming with us.
(smiling falsely)
You go ahead and burst into flames if you like.

*****

[Mitchell approaches Carter, Marks, and Captain Binder.]

MITCHELL
I assume you haven't found the magic cut-off switch.

CARTER
No. If the replicators are gonna come after the core sooner or later, I don't know why they haven't yet.

BINDER
Consolidating their numbers?

CARTER
Whatever they're trying to do, eventually, they're gonna want to take total control of this ship, and, in order to do that, (gesturing to Asgard core room)
they're going to have to get into this room.

MITCHELL
We should stop them from doing that.

BINDER
I've got people trapped all over the place.

MARKS
The replicators have locked down most of the elevators and bulkheads.

CARTER
Trying to restrict crew movements.

MARKS
They've also shut down systems over much of the ship.

CARTER
It takes a lot of power to replicate. My guess is the queen has set up shop somewhere close to our main conduit.

MITCHELL
(to Binder)
Position all the personnel you have right here. Protect that room at all costs.

[Binder nods.]

CARTER
We should probably weld the door shut.

BINDER
You won't be able to get out.

CARTER
If the replicators make it into the core, it's not gonna matter.

MITCHELL
Do it. I'm gonna go find the queen.

[He starts to walk away.]

BINDER
How?

MITCHELL
(calling back)
Like grandma said, "You want honey? Follow the bees."

MARKS
(to Carter and Binder)
Sounds like a good way of getting stung to me.

[Binder leaves as Carter and Marks walk into the core room.]

*****

DANIEL
(painfully)
Oh, god.

DOCI
Your gods cannot save you now, Daniel Jackson.

DANIEL
Actually, that-that's just a statement of general dissatisfaction.

*****

[Adria steps around the Ark toward Vala. Her voice is distorted as she speaks.]

ADRIA
Good to see you, Mother. Or should I call you Vala? I believe you renounced our blood relation last time I saw you.

[She begins to circle Vala and the Ark repeatedly as she walks and talks. Vala turns in her place to keep her back to Adria.]

VALA
(tiredly)
Seems you have no blood left to speak of.

ADRIA
You'll be somewhat satisfied to know that Merlin's weapon did work. The Ori were destroyed.

VALA
Really?

[Adria disappears and reappears in a different place in the room, then resumes walking in the circle.]

ADRIA
Somehow, you and your simple human friends managed to destroy quite a large group of very powerful ascended beings.

VALA
Well, we're a very determined bunch. I always say, you never know what you can do until you try.

ADRIA
I agree.

VALA
You don't seem too cut up about it.

ADRIA
(smiling)
No.

[She disappears and reappears on the other side of the room.]

ADRIA
The energy transferred to the Ori by their human followers used to be spread out among many. Now that I have ascended, I get it all.

VALA
If you don't kill us all first.

[Adria again disappears and reappears on the other side of the room.]

ADRIA
It's a shame I can't use your little discovery to convince everyone in your galaxy to follow me. It would be much more humane.

[She laughs out loud, and Vala finally looks at her.]

ADRIA
Not as much fun, though.

VALA
Not wanting to give you any ideas, but why can't you use the Ark?

ADRIA
It's just not the same. People need to be convinced to see me for what I really am.

VALA
A spoiled brat with a god complex?

ADRIA
(smiling)
Now, mother.

VALA
The Ark can only be programmed to make people believe what is true.

ADRIA
Once the Ancients have been destroyed, I will be a being of unchallengeable power, worshipped by all those beneath me. A true god by any definition, wouldn't you say?

[Seemingly feeling better, Vala puts her hands on the Ark and looks at Adria with a vague smirk.]

*****

[Marrick advances on Mitchell.]

MITCHELL
You know, I think we really... We got off on the wrong foot.

[Mitchell gets to his knees and pulls out his pistol. Before he can fire, Marrick moves his arm aside, picks him up, and throws him into a stack of metal barrels. Mitchell groans as he rolls back and forth on the ground. He now has a cut near his left eye. Marrick starts to advance on him again.]

MITCHELL
Oh...who am I kidding? I knew you were an asshole the moment we met.

*****

[He searches his pockets for the detonator. A few steps away, Marrick picks it up from the deck.]

MARRICK
You looking for this?

MITCHELL
Wow. Did I drop that? I don't supposed you'd mind flipping that switch and blowing us both up, would you?

*****

[Vala stands at the Ark, her hands on it, as she continues her conversation with Adria.]

VALA
Why do you need to take on the Ancients? Seriously. How many human worshippers do you really need? Can't you just live with what you have and be happy?
(approaching Adria)
I mean, my own mother used to say to me, "Vala, happiness is no something you can buy." Or in my case, steal. But I think the point is—

ADRIA
They are a threat to me.

[Now they speak face-to-face.]

VALA
From what I understand, they don't even care about you. They saw the Ori as a threat, and they did nothing about that.

ADRIA
That's what you chose to believe. They gave you the means to destroy the Ori. They'll stop at nothing to destroy me. I will not rest until they are all wiped from existence.

VALA
(sighing)
I wish you hadn't inherited my determination.

*****

MARKS
(looking at control screen)
We just dropped out of hyperspace.

CARTER
That's funny. I was just thinking we couldn't get any more screwed.

*****

[Marrick continues beating Mitchell, slugging or kicking him each time he tries to get up. Mitchell's face is very bloody, and his movements are slow. He shoves Mitchell up against some power conduits on the wall. He grabs Mitchell by the throat and chokes him, growling in anger. Mitchell reaches around Marrick and pulls the replicator leg out of the base of his skull. Marrick weakens for a moment then comes to his human self.]

MARRICK
(pleading)
Kill me.

MITCHELL
Believe me, I'm trying.

*****

[Mitchell gets up slowly and painfully. He rests for a moment against a support structure on the side of the corridor. He sees something arising from what should be Marrick's body. It is a complex replicator shaped like the skeleton of a human. It stands upright and starts walking toward Mitchell. Mitchell looks back to see more regular replicators coming around the corner from behind him. He doesn't appear able to move.]

MITCHELL
Oh, give me a break.

*****

[The team enters while Vala speaks.]

VALA
And then she just suddenly disappeared somewhere, as if she had something really important to do, and when I turned around, about seven symbols on the Ark were glowing.

[The reach the Ark and Daniel starts to examine it.]

DANIEL
It was Morgan.

VALA
Is she helping? Because if she is, I don't understand.

DANIEL
(urgently)
Which seven symbols?

VALA
Uh, well you don't expect me to remember?

DANIEL
With the fate of two galaxies hanging in the balance, yes, I expect you to remember the essential clue given to you by a powerful Ascended being!

VALA
It's not that they were glowing for that long! It was more like a bright light, and when I turned around, I realized I was alone and went to look for you—

DANIEL
(interrupting)
Which ones!

VALA
(gesturing at various areas of the device)
Uh, one here, two here, two here, and two there.

DANIEL
(frustrated)
Did they come in any order?

VALA
No, all at once.

DANIEL
(sarcastic)
Of course.

TEAL'C
Someone is coming.

[Daniel moves around to the long edge of the Ark, near Vala. He and Vala are rushed.]

DANIEL
Uh, okay, seven symbols.

VALA
Just...make a guess.

DANIEL
Verimas is uh, "truth" in Ancient.

VALA
Good.

[Daniel begins to touch the symbols.]

VALA
(gesturing)
Two there.

[He finishes typing out verimas but nothing happens.]

VALA
I guess not.

[Tomin looks at the doorway and sees it is the Doci who is arriving, walking slowly through the doorway. Daniel and Vala look at him in alarm. Teal'c fires at him with his Ori staff weapon. The Doci deflects the shot and uses his telekinesis to throw Teal'c across the room. Tomin approaches and the Doci throws him into a wall as well. The Doci stares at the Ark, Daniel and Vala with interest.]

*****

[The Ark shuts off, leaving the Doci stunned.]

ADRIA
(reaching out a hand)
No! You can't take away my power!

[The Doci looks around in some confusion.]

VALA
I think... we just did.

[Daniel rubs his injured shoulder and looks around, also confused.]

ADRIA
You will all burn in the fires of eternal damnation!

[Teal'c stands. From where he sits, Tomin sees a white light coming from the corridor. It takes form as Morgan Le Fay.]

MORGAN LE FAY
(to Adria)
Not if I have anything to do with it.

ADRIA
You're no match for me.

MORGAN LE FAY
(smiling)
I am now.

[Adria appears afraid. Morgan Le Fay suddenly loses her bodily form and launches herself as white ascended energy at Adria. Adria's eyes glow red, and she bursts into red flames. The two energy forms rush at each other and collide over the center of the room. They swirl in battle as the team looks on. Then they both disappear.]

DOCI
(contemplatively)
Mia clementia denar esto.

VALA
(to Tomin)
What? What did he say? I don't understand.

TOMIN
He said, "Have mercy. I was blind, but now I see."

*****

CARTER
How are you doing?

MITCHELL
Eh, you know, I've felt worse.

CARTER
(reluctantly)
Well, apparently, when you're feeling better, the IOA wants to meet with you.

MITCHELL
(leaning back)
Uh huh, really.

CARTER
(nodding)
Mmm-hmm. Something about an apology.

[They chuckle.]

MITCHELL
I don't know... my recovery could take a while.

CARTER
Yeah. Not too long, I hope.

[She pats his leg without thinking.]

MITCHELL
(in pain)
No!

CARTER
Oh! Sorry!

MITCHELL
(rasping out the words)
That's okay. I guess maybe that hurts a little.

*****

[SG-1 walks through the corridor together. They are geared up for a mission.]

MITCHELL
It's kind of weird not having a big bad guy to fight anymore.

CARTER
Yeah. That's how we felt when we defeated the Goa'uld... and the replicators... the first time.

MITCHELL
Well, Jackson and Vala took care of that.

VALA
That whole Ori thing was not our fault!

DANIEL
Just take the blame. You get used to it.

INT—SGC GATEROOM

[SG-1 enter.]

VALA
We played a big part in fixing the problem.

MITCHELL
That you did.

TEAL'C
There are still many planets in our gate system that remain unexplored.

[They enter the gate room and gather at the bottom of the ramp.]

DANIEL
Yes, let's see what mysteries P3K-546 will hold.

VALA
And what treasure.

MITCHELL
I'm sure something will come up. Walter, hit it!

[The gate begins to spin.]
THE END

these days

I know many of you (aka ZERO) have been wondering ... what is Darakna up to these days.
Well ... let me tell you:

I've been up to watching to the end of SG-1 seson 10.
And I'm going to be up to watching the Ark of truth and Continuum ... aka SG-1 movies (with Cam Mitchell, Vala Mal Doran, Daniel Jackson, Teal'c, General Jack O'Neill, General Landry, Samantha Carter etc. --- aka THE BEST TEAM IN THE WORLD (right along with the BladeBreakers and Team 7 ... but then again ... they both sometimes loose the best part of them)).
And I've been up to playing FF7 ... came to Vincet and Sephiroth is still on the run. Oh, and Yuffi just stole all of our materia that little brat of a tief. (And Berrett went all mad about it XP) ... oh, and we just got Cid on the team. So there's Cloud, Tifa, Berrett, Aeris, RedXII, Yuffie, Cait Sith, Vincent, Cid ... I think that is all. Oh, and Reno and Rude and Elena are all like:
E: "YOU SCUM! We need to fight."
Rude: "..."
Reno: "Leave them alone, Elena ... we're having the day off, remember."
Komplicirana igrca ... pa niti še čez 1CD/3 nism pršla.
Oh, and we've been up to this:
"Kaj bi storili vi?
Če bi se znašli na prostem – s sovražniki, ki jih slišite prihajati iz obeh koncev soteske, v kateri ne živi niti miš in zaradi trde skale ne morete pobegniti niti v podzemlje – ter če bi bila edina stavba več deset kilometrov naokoli trdna utrdba z gladkimi zidovi, enimi vrati in nekaj komaj dovolj velikimi linami, da je zrak prihajal notri. Kaj bi storili vi?
Če sem morala izbirati med vojsko sovražnikov, ki so poznali moj obraz, moje moči in moje ime in med kakšnimi sto od teme slepih, predvsem pa neinformiranih zapornikov, sem izbrala slednje. Kot miš sem se splazila skozi lino in se potuhnila med zalogami v skladišču."
YUP! We've been up to writing the 4th book.

Pretty weird week, huh?
