Summary:
"If I should die, think only this of me: / That there's some corner of a foreign field / That is forever [Earth]."
Earth is gone and all that is left is Atlantis, who find themselves hunted across the Pegasus galaxy by a Wraith superhive. With the Wraith reasserting their position in the galaxy once more, Atlantis and its inhabitants set out on a long journey to balance the scales that have been tipped, both within the city shields, and outside them.
"Adversity has ever been considered the state in which a man most easily becomes acquainted with himself." Samuel Johnson (1709 - 1784)
Key words: Apoca!fic. Stargate: Atlantis. Post-Season 5.
Main pairing: John/Sam.
Status: COMPLETE
AU premise: Sam went back to Earth in season 5 and attended both Baal's extraction ceremony and General Hammond's funeral, but reclaimed command of Atlantis about mid-season. The superhive never picked up the message containing Earth's location in "Enemy at the Gate", and thus that episode never happened. This story begins approx. a month after EATG should have happened, during Christmas 2008. Est. John/Sam.
