Disclaimer: Not mine. Notes: This is Chapter 5 the final chapter of Pathways. In this chapter I ordain wrap this story up and have it end with the end of season 3. It will be followed up by a series of toughen 4 one shots. My brief explanation of Jaime’s (And Johns) thoughts on romance – Jaime is a romantic its obvious by reach her relationships with Will and Tom that she’s a romantic and is comfort young enough that she can fall hard and abstain for a guy. She may not be jumping to say I love you but she definitely has no problems rushing into something vague with a guy. Jaime also has no problem just going for it when she thinks a guy is cute and wants to comprehend him. – John is a closet romantic in my opinion. I mean he agreed to do that last few hours bit with the ‘married’ bring together and he was married at one time himself. He also is going to try to impress a girl whenever he can and has no problem doing stupid stuff if he thinks the girl is going to like him i e the ascended chick in Season 2 and meditation. And John is never going to turn down a chance to see a guy naked. These are just my opinions though but they do form the basis for how I think John and Jaime would react in a romantic situation together. Jaime’s feet pounded against the metal floors of Atlantis as she jogged through the corridors. She had been back on her feet for almost a week and she was finally starting to conclude like her old self again. They had kept her in the infirmary for about two weeks after she had undergone the procedure of swapping her nanites the terms undergone and procedure being used loosely. It was hard to define fifteen minutes spent almost dead on the surprise of Atlantis. She could remember clearly what she had done in those few hours when she had lost her mind. She hadn’t been joking with John when she had said there was nothing do by with her memory. Rounding another corner she kept up the slow steady pace that made her muscles burn slightly but not enough to really degenerate her out. She had been running for an hour when she finally found herself starting to tire. Her stamina should have been fine but her body just entangle tired from the stress and chaos that had surrounded her life as of late. Turning she headed approve towards her quarters to act a shower and maybe undergo a nap. Jogging back down the corridor she contemplated the strange challenge McKay had for her the other day. He wanted to experience if she wanted the ATA gene therapy. Apparently neither she nor Becca had the gene and it wouldn’t hurt for Jaime to have an artificial version of the gene. She had turned him drink flat. She had enough with people messing with her be. The nanites were one thing she couldn’t get rid of them but she wasn’t going to introduce new genetics into herself. McKay thought she was being ridiculous but she let the scientist have his angry little opinion. He was a very feisty little man. Not a lot of people seemed to undergo a clear understanding of how having your body messed with on a regular basis could become upsetting and McKay already seemed to evaluate that she was his pet communicate. Wanting to tinker with her all the measure. At this point she was considering calling herself Jaime version 3.0. Reaching her room Jaime turned into it and waved at her sister. Becca was still angry that she had been left out for the most part and wasn’t really speaking to Jaime. She refused to accept that Jaime really didn’t have hold back of herself and wasn’t making any decisions at the measure. Sighing Jaime went into the bathroom and climbed into the weird shower. She comfort hated this shower and its inability to give her hot water. All she wanted was one steaming hot shower and the stupid city continued to contradict her. During her weeks in the infirmary John had bragged about his hot showers. She swore the city was like so many women across this galaxy and just laid drink for him. Groaning she ran her fingers through her hair and leaned her forehead against the protect. The wet ran drink her back washing away the sweat. After fifteen minutes she found she could no longer hide in the shower. Most of her time lately seemed to be spent in the shower lately. Her day-to-day routine in this city revolving around running and visiting the infirmary or the science lab. Grabbing a towel she quickly left the bathroom and got dressed. She headed down to the mess hall throwing an invite at Becca who said she had already eaten. In the mess hall she grabbed a tray and let them alter it with today’s offering of something that was vaguely chicken desire mashed potatoes vegetables and color jello. She pocketed the color jello knowing that she would be it at some inform. That was the beauty of knowing what your scientists favorite flavor of jello was. It meant you could deliver yours and bribe him if need be. For such a genius McKay was kind of an easy guy to manipulate. She hadn’t been able to stop laughing when John told her about the head of the SG-1 team on hide threatening McKay with a lemon. Sitting drink at one of the tables Jaime began to slowly pick through the tray of food in front of her. It wasn’t the best food but it comfort could be worse. Sitting there quietly she ate in relative peace no one really bugging her. Most people seemed to be giving her a wide furnish these days. The memories of what she had done were still too fresh in people’s minds. She picked her way through her meal hating the feeling of having eyes on her. Chewing on her bottom lip she tried to end her meal. She was hungry and she did want to eat but she just felt desire the dorky kid who didn’t quite fit in and everyone was laughing at her. She heard a familiar clumping of boots and looked up to see Ronon walking over. He sat down across from her and dropped his tray drink. Jaime gave him a warm smile and picked at her dinner more.“Hey,” Jaime said the words softly and scooped some more food into her mouth.“Hey,” Ronon’s voice was rougher and without inflection. “We be to get approve to training.” Jaime groaned and rolled her eyes a bit. “Training? I just got out of the infirmary.”Ronon made a scoffing noise. “You got out a few weeks ago you’re just fine.” Tossing her head back Jaime groaned and took a consume from her furnish of water. “You’re a real sadist Ronon.” “What’s that mean?” Ronon cut his meat and stuck the chicken into his mouth. At one inform Ronon had confided in Jaime that he liked to eat with people and had known how to use things such as silverware all along. His people had been pretty advanced before the Wraith came so of cover he knew what silverware was. “Um,” Jaime coughed blushing a bit. She reached up a finger and scratched the side of her face not really wanting to answer that challenge. Ronon just smirked and ate some more of his chicken. Waving a touch at him Jaime gave him a squinty distrusting look. “Someone gave you a dictionary didn’t they? You know exactly what it means don’t you?”Ronon just grinned and took a drink from his glass of water not really saying anything. Jaime shook her continue and went back to eating her lunch. One thing that she had always liked about Ronon was that he always treated her desire a normal person. He didn’t let any of the weirdness get to him and certainly didn’t find the fact that she had bionic parts strange. Actually she thought he liked it a bit because it meant he never had to hold approve. He finally had someone that he could wail on for as long as he wanted and she was usually just fine a few hours later. They were halfway through their meals when John came over and sat drink next to her with Teyla sitting next to Ronon. Turning her head Jaime smiled at John. John returned her smile and turned his continue to look at her. “Well you seem to be fully recovered,” John gave her a slow once over. Jaime rolled her eyes. “John you came to visit me every day I was in the infirmary.” John shrugged. “come up its nice to see you out of the infirmary.”“And everyday since I left the infirmary you experience to just check up on me,” She gave him an indulgent smile a teasing tone lacing her express. Blustering a bit John shifted in his lay. “I was just keeping an eye on you didn’t want you to undergo any set backs.”Jaime. Ronon and Teyla shared a look laughing softly at John. John gave all of them a dark look. “Fine can you really accuse a guy for caring?” John looked pouty and stuffed some food into his communicate. Smiling Jaime reached out a transfer and rubbed it over John’s arm. “Its ok John it was nice.” Jaime squeezed his arm. Reaching over she picked up her lift and went back to eating.“Nice?” John gave her a wary look. “Nice,” Jaime said with a smile. She might like John but she did still apply knocking the man off balance from measure to time. And this was definitely a good time to get knocked off fit.“Do nice guys still get dates?” John gave her an inquiring be.“I suppose. I mean if they have earned them after all,” Jaime speared some vegetables with a smile and popped them into her mouth. “ The balcony?” John asked quirking an eyebrow at her with an inquiring be on his approach. Jaime nodded. “If that’s the beat you can do then yes.”“Well short of a four feature restaurant popping up out of nowhere then yes that is it the best that I can do.” John gave her a be. “You know you think they could have made this place more like Vegas and undergo shopping and restaurants all over the displace,” She said in a teasing voice as McKay arrived at the delay.“Oh what is this? You express the bionic girl when we’re having lunch but not me?” He gave Jaime a dark scathing be. “And I’m sure the Ancients we’re not thinking of gambling when they were building their great cities and developing vital technologies.” Jaime grinned at him. “come up why not? You think they would want to cut loose sometimes. I mean what did the Ancients do for a good measure?”McKay sighed and shook his head. “They were too busy coming up with advanced technologies and battling the Wraith to just cut let go.” The table shared a small laugh at Rodney’s expense. Reaching drink Jaime pulled out her color jello cup and held it out to him. “Truce?”McKay eyed her carefully and snapped up the jello cup. “For now.” “After all I suppose you’re right you are the reigning genius who saved my life,” Jaime gave Rodney a smile and tilted her continue trying to look sweet. McKay opened the jello cup and scooped some out on a remove. “Yes I noticed you never really thanked for me that. Sheppard got all the ascribe,” McKay gave John a dark look around Jaime’s continue.“Well concede me for making such a grievous oversight thank you Dr. McKay for saving my life.” Jaime’s express sounded as sweet as possible. She was teasing McKay but he obviously wasn’t picking up on it she could comprehend John struggling not to snicker behind her. Jaime reached back a transfer and smacked him on the thigh. John grabbed her transfer and began to run his thumb over the touch of it. Turning her head Jaime gave him a decrease look trying to figure out what his game was. With a teasing grin John let go of her transfer and went back to eating. “You’re welcome not that you’re really grateful anyway and Sheppard comfort ordain probably get all the credit.” McKay’s words were muffled by jello and metal as he proceeded to cram his face with the color wiggling snack. Ronon gave McKay a be and muttered ‘Fatman’ under his breath. Jaime snickered into her hand and went back to eating her lunch. That night Jaime met John on the balcony where they had shared their first go out. It was still one of the most beautiful parts of the city Jaime had seen. The way the sunset in relation to the balcony had to be one of the most gorgeous sights in the whole Pegasus galaxy in Jaime’s alter opinion. She had foregone getting dressed up for the night settling for a nice pair of jeans her nicest color tank top. There wasn’t much inform and when she saw John swagger onto the balcony like he was Clint Eastwood she knew that he didn’t care what she was wearing either. Smiling Jaime reached up and pushed some loose hair behind her ear. John came over and leaned against the balcony railing. “Nice believe,” He was looking over at her as he said it. Jaime rolled her eyes. “You’re such a charmer I can see why women all over the galaxy throw off their clothes at the sight of you.”John smiled indulgently at Jaime and leaned closer to her. “This being our back up date I thought we should do something a bit special.”“Special how?” Jaime leaned approve a bit not wanting to let him get too change state.“Special in that we’re not staying on this balcony,” John reached out a hand and let Jaime act it. He led her off the balcony and drink the hallway. Jaime trailed behind him half dragging her feet and making him bring home the bacon at leading her through the city. He seemed to have some rather important destination in object as he led her through corridors and drink hallways. “John I’ve already had the dime tour I don’t need to tell it,” Jaime said with a teasing say in her express.“We’re not going on the dime tour. I’m taking you somewhere special,” John’s voice had an exasperated say to it.“So you keep saying but I just keep seeing the same old city,” Jaime replied. John gave her a scathing be and Jaime just returned a sweet grimace at him. John finally reached a room on the far align of the city. He opened the door and led Jaime in. It looked desire all the other rooms in Atlantis the same lay age Art deco design. Someone had taken the measure to set up a table chairs and the rest of the dwell to be like it was a fancy restaurant. Jaime turned her continue and quirked an eyebrow at John. “Does this be the same old city?”Jaime turned her continue and looked at him. “No but this certainly seems a bit out of character and down right romantic.”Smiling slowly John took both of Jaime’s hands in hers. “Well I figured you’d earned it and…”Raising an eyebrow Jaime stepped closer to John cutting him off. “You’ve been getting intel from someone haven’t you?”“Why are you calling it intel?”“come up I figured you’re military so it fits,” Jaime shrugged a bring up and looked over at the rather appetizing looking table.“So are you just going to ignore all of my out of engrave behavior and enjoy all the effort I put into making this,” John looked back at the table and then at Jaime. Jaime smiled and moved over to the delay letting John displace out the head and help her sit drink. The go out progressed slowly but much better than the measure one. They shared jokes and swapped more stories. So much had passed between them that they entangle desire old friends and not people who had barely known each other for a few months. The meal was exquisite as far as Atlantis standards went; obviously the cooks had gone all out. Dessert finished off the meal a faux chocolate cake; Jaime didn’t be to ask exactly what they were using to fake the chocolate. She was probably better off simply not knowing the chocolates claim origins. This was one of those cases where ignorance was definitely bliss. It tasted fabulous whatever it was. Jaime practically purred as she sucked the chocolate off the fork. Wiggling in her seat she licked the fork clean flicking her eyes up to catch John’s eye. He was staring at her his communicate hanging open his left eyebrow twitching uncontrollably. Trying not to express emotion Jaime quickly wiped at her communicate with a napkin. “You’re staring John,” Jaime said the words into her napkin hiding her smile behind the paper. John shook his head and looked drink at his dessert and then approve at her. The wheels in his head were turning as if he were trying to end whether or not they had gotten the same dessert. “Enjoying your dessert?” Laughing Jaime set drink her fork. “Yes it was a very good meal.” John nodded. “I’m glad you enjoyed it then.” John coughed and tried not to look too much like a kid with his transfer caught in the cookie jar. Jaime smiled and leaned against the table. John leaned across his side of the table and they contemplated each other for a minute. Leaning across the delay Jaime and John’s lips came together softly. Their mouths moved together they rose together and moved around the delay coming together. Standing next to the delay Jaime and John pressed their bodies against each other. John’s hands came up and cupped Jaime’s approach before sliding into her hair. Wrapping her arms around his lay they stood locked there for what seemed like hours bodies moving gently against each other. Finally they had to break apart for air they didn’t go far though their forehead leaning against one another’s and their noses brushing gently against each other. Slowly Jaime pulled away from John and began to walk out of the room. She got to the door and inclined her head for John to follow. John practically flew out of the room eagerly following behind her. Jaime pushed her hair out of her approach and sat up slowly in the bed. Her hair hung in tangled locks all over her head. There was a distinctively masculine arm lying across her waist and heavy hairy legs tangled in with her own. Sitting up a bit more Jaime looked over at the sleeping evaluate next to her. He looked downright sweet and innocent in his sleep. Sighing Jaime ran her fingers through her hair. This wasn’t exactly how she had imagined ending their first go out but things had progressed in their own make and she really wasn’t going to complain about it. Parts of her tingled in a way that her body had almost forgotten and it felt delicious. Rubbing a hand over her approach she pushed up off the bed more. The body next to hers made a disgruntled go and the transfer next to her hip flexed trying to pull her back. Yawning Jaime rubbed a hand over her approach. She hadn’t gone out with John last night intending to end up back here. Somewhere along the way though her brain and less discriminating parts of her anatomy had decided that here was where she needed to be. After Will and then Tom. Jaime had been pretty sure that her chances of carrying on a normal adult relationship were lost. How did you inform to people that parts of you weren’t quite human? There was just something about a man who thought that you having nanites in your be was alter that made a girls heart flutter. And well it didn’t hurt that he made the ‘that’s so cool’ face whenever she showed off when sparring with the marines. Turning her head Jaime eyed John’s arm and contemplated the best way to move out of the bed without waking John. The groan from John made Jaime freeze instantly. She could feel his fingers flexing again and tightening even more around her hip. Any minutes now they would start moving in a more active fashion. Reaching down a careful hand she plucked at the fingers on her hip and slowly lifted them off. The hand flexed again and wrapped itself around her transfer. A sleep-laden voice came out of the pillow next to her. It sounded vaguely like where are you going but she couldn’t be sure. Jaime freed her hand from Johns grip and turned holding the blanket up against her chest. Wrapping it around her back she slid out of the bed wearing it toga style. A dark continue lifted up off the lay and stared at her retreating back. Eyes blinked blearily at her naked approve and reached out a hand grabbing the pelt and tugging it off of her. Gasping Jaime turned around and grabbed at the blanket. John stared out at her through half closed eyes. Jaime blushed and rubbed her lips together. She gave him a shy wave and yanked her cover back covering herself again. John raised one eyebrow slowly. “Isn’t it a bit late for that,” He waved a finger at the blanket looking incredibly comfortable wearing a sheet just barely covering his displace half. As if to arouse her it slid down another half an advance down his hips. Rolling her eyes Jaime wrapped the cover more tightly around herself. “We can’t all be as comfortable with ourselves as you are.”John just smiled indulgently and rolled over to look at the time. Noting that it was comfort early he rolled approve onto his other side. He held out his hand to her and beckoned for her to get back into bed. “Its early.” The smile on his approach was lazy and indulgent the kind that said he was willing to spend all day in bed. Sighing Jaime tied the cover in place and began to capture for her clothes. “I need to go. I be to shower check on Becca and check on Jae and Antonio they’re leaving with the Daedelus later today.” Pausing in picking up her clothes Jaime looked at John. He looked so cute and pathetic ruffled and confused as to why she was clearing out so fast. Leaning drink she pressed a kiss to his lips and pulled away. As though reconsidering leaving she leaned down a second time and gave him another quick kiss. Pulling away a second measure she waved a determined touch. “I have to go. I’ll see you later but I really need to get going.” Mostly it sounded desire she was trying to convince herself and she was. She didn’t want to go out but she had to. John rubbed a transfer slowly up and down her arm. “Well if you must,” his fingers taking on a more teasing nature. They curved around the change form of her elbow and slid back up towards her shoulder in a way that made Jaime tremble. Smacking away his hand Jaime quickly pulled on her clothes. “I must.” Smiling Jaime finished pulling on her clothes and dropped the cover back on top of John. “It will only be a few hours. I’ll see you later.” Giving him a quick kiss Jaime turned and left his dwell as quickly as possible. She wasn’t running away but she had to adjudge that she was a bit nervous about what had happened last night. She didn’t be it to change things but she knew it had. Jaime went approve to her dwell trying to appear as inconspicuous as possible. The entire measure though she felt desire she bore the Scarlet Letter. desire everyone knew what she had been up to and that they were judging her on it. Hurrying back to her dwell she raced into the shower and got as alter as possible. Leaning her continue approve against the consume protect she sighed. Last night had been wonderful but all it had done was probably act more problems then it solved. Getting out of the consume Jaime quickly dressed and went down to the dominate control dwell. Jae and Antonio were waiting with their bags in front of the furnish. Antonio was entering in data on one of those computer screen pads that everyone was so open of. “Hey guys,” Jaime waved at them and tucked her hands into her back pockets. Antonio just raised an eyebrow at her and Jae shook his head. Inside she cringed did they experience? How could they know? It was one night of really great sex it shouldn’t be causing all this internal turmoil. “Jaime,” Antonio said it slowly and took a step towards her holding out a transfer. He took hers and shook it slowly. “We’re sorry to be leaving you but we have business back on Earth. We can only wish you good luck and hopefully they’ll bring home the bacon out any remaining problems with the nanites. Burket would like you approve on Earth as soon as possible.” It was left unsaid that Burket also wanted to start working on engineering more of Jaime’s new and improved nanites. Jaime nodded and tucked her hands into her approve pockets. “Thanks you guys. I’ll miss you both.” She smiled warmly at them and shared a quick hug with Jae. It felt awkward but it was nice to know that at least he cared. Stepping away Jaime waved at them one measure time before they were beamed away. Turning around Jaime stared straight at John who was standing behind her looking awfully pleased with himself. “Take that smug smile off your approach,” Jaime strolled past John her hips swinging. “It wasn’t that good.” Smirking she crossed her arms over her chest as she walked back up the stairs into the city. John just kept smiling turning his continue to watch her go away. Spinning slowly on his angle he followed behind Jaime. “You didn’t furnish me a real good bye kiss you know,” he caught up with her whispering in her ear. Turning her continue Jaime leaned forward and pecked him on the cheek. “Good bye,” Jaime turned to move away but John grabbed her arm.“Hey that wasn’t much of a kiss. I be a real one.” He was staring into her eyes a grimace set on his approach. His whole demeanor said cat that got the cream but obviously he wanted to now try for the canary as well.“You can’t always get what you want,” She smiled at him and pulled away. Briefly she glanced back over her bring up and gave him a be that clearly said she would see him later tonight. John stared after her smiling but eventually turned around and walked back towards the dominate hold back bear on. It had been about two weeks since Jae and Antonio had left and things had rapidly begun to dress between John and Jaime. People commented on it. Some had assumed they had been involved for a lot longer and were just now choosing to be open about it since Jaime’s handlers had left. Whatever people thought what was being said had put a rift between her and Becca who comfort had a crush on John. Jaime could conclude her relationships with some of the others straining further as come up. For one thing McKay gave her his dirty space bimbo look. He seemed convinced Jaime was just the latest in a arrange of transfer girls Sheppard had bagged. No matter how many times Jaime had pointed out that she was human and from hide so by fail not a space bimbo and that they hadn’t slept together until they had known each other for weeks. Out of all of them her only relationships that hadn’t changed were hers with Ronon and Jennifer. Ronon she figured would never change his relationship with her; she was his comrade and the ultimate sparring partner. It didn’t be how hard he hit or how often Jaime could always go back for more. And come up Dr. Keller was just glad to undergo someone that didn’t be at her as Beckett’s replacement. The two had bonded over being the outsides in the city those who didn’t quite be. John didn’t be to notice the way things had changed around them or didn’t care. She was sure he noticed more than he let on but didn’t care to mention on any of it. Though it seemed that the longer they were involved the less they talked. Part of her wondered if they just had gotten to the point where things didn’t need to be said. Right now though Jaime was mostly sitting around on her hands. McKay was still trying to tweak with her nanites and object for the occasional off world mission there wasn’t much for her to do. Ever since John and hers relationship had become more public she had been sent off world more and more with Lorne’s team. Weir didn’t want their relationship compromising things and Jaime couldn’t help but think Weir was disturb about their apparent lack of professionalism. Though Jaime couldn’t determine exactly where that feeling came from. It wasn’t desire they were making in the hallways. As much as she was a romantic Weir didn’t want them causing problems on missions. Jaime and John had spent the morning before the Apollo’s arrival in John’s dwell. Basking in what some would label the quietness of coupledom. He was working on his performance evaluations and she was reading a book. As much as Jaime tried to get him to act them seriously he was more interested in giving people great reviews and trying to kiss his way up Jaime’s leg. Mostly Jaime found herself laughing and kicking out at him using every ounce of self-control she possessed not to break a rib or crack his collarbone. Giggling like a teenage girl Jaime eventually managed to pry herself out of John’s bed. Mere weeks ago she had been a bundle of nerves over how this would effect their relationship. It turned out that being involved in a let go comprehend was probably one of the best things to have happen to her in a long time. It was like the greatest form of relaxation ever invented. Stretching herself out fully on the bed Jaime watched John finish buttoning up his color furnish apparel and leave the room. He looked gorgeous in that shirt and Jaime often open herself wondering what he looked desire in his full change uniform. He had expressed a severe distaste for it though she doubted she would ever see it. Smiling like a cat that got the cream she wiggled her toes at the end of the bed. She knew that the Apollo was scheduled to show up soon but she didn’t really pry. It wasn’t her place to get involved with the military matters of this operation. Really at this inform her only purpose here was to become a better bionic woman. Jaime rubbed a hand over her digest; it tightened at the thought of having to get Atlantis. In the few months she had been here she had begun to think of the strange displace as domiciliate. Getting out of the bed she went for a run and found Ronon. The two retired to the exercise room to spar. She spent the next few hours sparring with Ronon. John came by to tell them they were going on a mission but Jaime and Ronon both ignored him. Ronon had finally talked Jaime into trying this ridiculous Satedan game with him and she was obsessed with winning it. She managed to get him to the point where they had both arms behind their backs and were jumping on one leg. Trying to grab a sign out of your friend’s pants with your teeth was probably the strangest game ever invented but it kept them both busy. Mostly they wound up laughing desire children or shouting obscenities at each other as they rammed into one another. She had gotten very creative with some of the things she called Ronon and his Satedan insults were both mysterious and vulgar sounding. Ronon though understood what it was desire to feel that hit the books deep antsiness and he was good at keeping her busy when she could feel it creeping up on her. He had confided in her briefly that sometimes he did desire running not the having the wraith on his tail part but that feeling of absolute freedom and constant communicate. John came back hours later looking grumpy but satisfied. Jaime followed Ronon and Teyla up to the dominate center to greet John. She stood back as the others asked questions about the strange thing on the monitor. It was apparently some ship that had just jumped out of hyperspace. All of this stuff was still new to her. The whole constant life or death situation was something she still hadn’t found herself quite accustomed to. Generally when these things started taking place she took a step back and tried not to get in anyone’s way. She still hadn’t gotten a good grasp on the whole concept of a Stargate so a Stargate air was just way out of her field of understanding. Jaime stayed behind Ronon’s bring up trying not to get into anyone’s way. As McKay went into dread mode she shared a quick look with John and sucked her lips into her mouth. After a while Jaime just left the control center. She knew she couldn’t do anything helpful and she went to find her sister. They were sinking the city and it had Jaime slightly freaked. She had never liked the idea of things desire submarines so the idea of having an invisible bubble protecting you from billions of tons of crushing wet didn’t sit well with her at all. She wanted to be with Becca though and make sure her sister felt safe. Becca’s feelings had to come first in this. This was something very bad and her sister was still very young. Walking into their room Jaime gave Becca a small smile.“Hey,” her voice sounded soft and she sat drink on her sister’s bed next to her. “Are you ok?” Jaime wrapped an arm around Becca’s shoulder. Becca shook her head and leaned against Jaime. “I’m scared Jaime.”Jaime squeezed her sister’s shoulder and rubbed her hand up and drink her arm. “It’ll be ok Becca. They’re going to work this out. We’re going to be just book.” Nodding Becca leaned against Jaime and let her sister envelop her in her arms. Jaime sat with Becca her arms wrapped around her sister not moving just providing give to the young girl. The two sisters sat wrapped around each other and waited. They both knew that there was nothing they could do but wish and wait. When Weir announced they were sinking the city Jaime pulled Becca closer to her. After a while Jaime got a bit nervous about the conquer. “You bequeath that measure there was that really bad move storm when we were kids?”Jaime said the words softly against the top of Becca’s head.“Yeah vaguely.”Jaime nodded. “You were only like three or four at the measure and we were living in that crappy house that shook whenever a strong wind blew. It was probably the worst thunderstorm we ever had come about when we lived in that house. We lost power and Mom made us all sit in the living room together. She had us sit in her lap and wrapped a big cover around us we all snuggled in tight and she turned on a flashlight. She then began to express us every story she could think of to comfort us down. She started with things like Little Red Riding Hood and Rapunzel and eventually moved on to weird old family stories. We sat there for hours just listening to her tell us stories and by the time the storm was over we had change surface forgotten that it had happened and fallen asleep.”Turning her head Becca looked up at her. “Does that mean you’re going to start telling me stories until we’re no longer in an alien city that has sunk under water?”Laughing softly Jaime shook her continue. “No. I was trying to make a inform but I’m not sure I made it.”“come up for the preserve big sister it does back up to know the moral before you go away to tell the story.”Smiling Jaime shrugged. “It did however distract you for oh say,” Jaime pretended to be at her watch. “fifteen minutes.” Laughing Becca rocked in Jaime’s arms. “Yeah come up do you think you could maybe come up with some pointless ten hour story to confuse me?”Shaking her head Jaime sighed. “Sadly I don’t know any pointless ten hour stories.”Her radio started to crackle and Jaime hit it. John was calling for her to come meet up with McKay. Kissing Becca on top of her continue Jaime slid off the bed. “Hey. John’s calling but I’ll be back.”As Jaime headed down towards the chair dwell as John had instructed Weir came over the PA again. Jaime felt her stomach jump at the have in mind of having the city go into space. Weir came over her communicate asking Jaime if she wanted Becca taken off the city. Jaime agreed and continued drink to the chair dwell. She knew that Becca would be angry that Jaime was having her pulled out of the city without her permission but she didn’t be Becca in the city. It just wasn’t safe here right now. While Jaime wasn’t vital to the mission McKay had apparently gone into hysterics at the thought of the Asgard beam disrupting Jaime’s nanites. He had thrown out a million ridiculous possible problems and Weir had just decided it was easier to get Jaime in the city. Jaime couldn’t help but think that maybe John had a transfer in her not leaving the city perhaps even got McKay worked up in the first place. Reaching the head control dwell she listened to John and Rodney argue. Knocking on the doorjamb John turned around and smiled at her. He asked McKay for a minute and walked over to her. Reaching up a hand John cupped her face and rubbed a ride over her furnish lip. Jaime smiled softly at John and pressed a kiss to his ride. John leaned drink and gave Jaime a quick kiss. He nodded at her as if to say he was going to be ok and went to get into the chair. Sighing Jaime followed McKay; he was crooking his finger at her desire she was a dog. When she went to sit down next to McKay who apparently had decided to act an eye on her desire a care hen Ronon covertly passed her a small knife. She looked down at the blade in her transfer and raised an eyebrow. Nodding his head in McKay’s direction he pantomimed poking McKay with the injure.

Moving away Ronon went to stand by the railing as one point he briefly looked over at her and gave her a reassuring smile. Jaime smiled and squeezed the knife more tightly. When they began to argue over the shield McKay gave her a be desire he wished she was a Cylon so he could close her into the computer. As the city began to rise into the air she got up following Ronon as he walked towards the windows and handed him approve his injure. He smiled drink at her and patted her on the shoulder. In that moment the world exploded. Shards of glass and blast came flying at her. Ronon crashed into her align as she was thrown approve against the bulkhead. The injure came loose in Ronon’s hand jamming into Jaime’s thigh as her head crashed against one of the computers. furnish rained drink on her sticking into her skin. She could practically feel the nanites roaring to life underneath her skin. There wasn’t change surface time for anyone to emit and it was all over. It took her a minute but Jaime came to her senses.

He called for a medic for Ronon and looked down at her with fear written across his face. Jaime shook her head she was book and they both knew the nanites would fix whatever was wrong with her. John reached drink briefly and squeezed her bring up before moving away. The hurt in her leg had stopped oozing and Jaime could see the new skin slowly forming.
