March Round Robin - Part One
Spoiler:
Blearily, she opened her eyes and looked about. She did not recognise the room she was in, though she was sure she recognised some of the technology as belonging to the Ancestors. She groaned and sat up, lifting a hand to her head as pain ripped through her.
To one side, a thin white curtain was drawn around her, to the other a wall. The wall was bland, a dark earthy shade that she had seen on the bark of many trees. The bed was comfortable though not her own, pillows piled high behind her covered in plain white sheets. Panic rose within her thought there was a part of her that told her there was no need to.
The floor beneath her feet was cool, clean and as dull as the walls and she felt a chill run through her body. She shuffled to the curtain, her feet not willing to move across the floor, and drew it back. There were others in the room and when they heard the noise of the curtain being drawn back, they turned to her.
“Teyla,” she started at the use of her name. She did not know these people. The three came towards her, the one who spoke clad in a long white coat over strange looking clothes. “You shouldn’t be up, love.”
She took a step back from them as they advanced upon her, her hand instantly going out in front of her to stop their approach. The other man, taller than the first, dressed in black with strange hair halted, his eyes filling with concern. She did not recognise this man, or the other man or the woman. The second man took a tentative step towards her and she let him but when he began to move again, she flinched back. He stopped, startled and dipped his head.
“Teyla...” He said her name slowly, his gaze now not only concerned but afraid and he took his own step back, turned towards the woman and frowned. “Are you okay?”
The first man stepped towards her but she shook her head fervently and darted around to the other side of the bed, placing herself against the wall, palms flat against the wall, ready to pounce.
“Who are you?” She demanded and they looked between one another, frowning at each other.
The man with the strange hair blanched and walked away.
