John cautiously stepped forward, getting closer to the cell door, as Todd stood up and walked towards him as well. John had an eerie, deja vu feeling wash over him. He recalled when Teyla did the same thing to the Wraith queen that had him, Rodney and Ronon captured and she took over her body to save them….risking her life and the life of her unborn son. He could feel his heart pounding in his chest.
“Teyla?” he said slowly and softly.
A small sigh of relief escaped as she expressed how happy she was to get through to him and see him, “Yes, John. It is me.” She paused briefly. “I cannot speak too long for there are too many here and I fear they will discover what I am doing.”
“Where are you being held?” Woolsey jumped in.
“I am still unsure, but Bates is involved,” Teyla answered with a slightly angry tone to her voice when she mentioned his name.
“Yeah, we know, “ Ronon grumbled.
----------
“What is she doing?” Bates asked one of the men as they observed Teyla from a distance.
“Oh she’s just meditating and probably mumbling to herself”, the agent said non-chalantly.
“You idiot! She’s probably communicating to the Wraith they have on Atlantis to contact Colonel Sheppard,” Bates said quite angrily. “Get over there and stop her. I don’t care if you have to knock her out to do it…. Just do it now!”
But before the agent was able to carry out Bates’ order a well dressed, older man walked in. He had black hair with fine streaks of silver in it, a square jaw and lifeless dark eyes.
“Mr. Parker,” the agent said with surprise and nervousness. “What are you doing here?”
“I came to see my newest addition to my collection, but first I need you to give her another dose, “Parker ordered with an evil tint to his eyes.
“But that could killer her,” the agents uneasily rebuked.
Parker glared at the young man before answering, “I think she can handle it.”
The young agent looked at Bates and Bates nodded his head to confirm the order.
----------
Teyla was surprised, “You know, but how?”
“Right now that’s not important. We need to know where you are so we can find you,“ John
interrupted.
“First, I need to know if Torren is with you or not. Bates said that he has him.” Teyla said sadly.
The men all looked at each other curiously. Woolsey quickly clicked on his ear comm. and walked to a quiet side of the room and is a short amount of time he returned with an answer for Teyla.
Woolsey’s eyes told her it was bad news, “Torren is safe and I will make sure to keep Atlantis on high alert for any intruders.”
Teyla gave a sigh of relief, “Thank you, Mr. Wool…..sey…”
Teyla’s voice started to sound weary and weak. They watched as Todd began to lose his balance and fall to the ground. They knew something was wrong with Teyla.
“Teyla!” John yelled as he could feel her presence slip away.
She was gone, no longer in control of Todd and they still had no way of finding her.
Todd opened his eyes and attempted to stand, but the process of them merging their minds took more out of him then he thought it would so getting up took a little longer.
“Dammit! “ John shouted in frustration. “We still don’t know what is going on or where she’s at…. And I should be out there…”
“John Sheppard,” Todd called out amongst John’s loud rant. “I was able to probe Teyla’s mind as she was talking to you and there are things you need to know.”
