Hello, people! OMG some people read this *does happy dance*. Many thanks to Twilli Princess Hyrule Queen and golden-priestess for putting this on alert and Padme4000 for reviewing AND putting me on alert. You all get cookies.

Well, this is a pretty short chapter. I literally just finished it :P I procrastinate a lot. Anywho, I'm gonna shut up and let you guys read.

Disclaimer: If I owned Stargate, Sunday never would of happened. The pile of tissues in the corner, however, proves that me owning Stargate is just a dream.

A week later, Cassandra remembered her first dream. It wasn't all that bizarre, just walking around the Atlantis that her mind had devised, but it was her first. And so she shelved it away to be permanently secured in her mind.

She was exploring the Eagles that night. The melodies were beautiful, but she couldn't understand most of the words. What was love? Hate? The friendship these people spoke of? All it did was confuse her.

She lay back and appreciated the music whilst thinking about the dream. Why did she dream? Was it a way for her mind to tell her body what she wanted?

Well, she had to admit the room she was confined to was quite boring. Brian didn't like to talk, so it was just her, her tablet and her thoughts.

When she was wraith, Cassandra had never cared for the sun, or the sky, or the stars. But now that she was human, she couldn't help but to long for the feeling of wind in her hair and sunlight on her face.

"Brian?" she walked to the door. He turned and looked at her, hand gripping his weapon once again.

"What?" he muttered gruffly.

"Can I go outside?" she blinked up at him from under her eyelashes.

"No," he turned to the front and proceeded to ignore her.

A few more days passed until, one day, a new person walked through her door.

"Hello, Cassandra," the woman was quite different from her, with coffee hair and bronzed skin. Her eyes shone with a warmth, but you could see the warrior within. Cassandra smiled and stood from her bed.

"Hello. Who are you?" she grinned, thrilled to have someone talk to her.

"My name is Teyla Emmagan," she introduced herself. "I'm going to show you something."

They walked in silence down a deserted hallway until Teyla turned and opened a door. Sea air engulfed the duo and Cassandra ran out onto the balcony.

"Oh, it's more beautiful than I imagined!" Cassandra laughed, leaning against the railing. Teyla blinked at her in surprise.

"You can imagine?" she was taken aback by the development.

"I taught myself to. Wraith can't, though. I think I like being human more that being a wraith. It's strange...it's like I'm weaker, but I'm stronger. It's confusing. And when I look at what humans have created..." Cassandra turned to Teyla. "I once believed humans were inferior to the wraith. Now, I'm not so sure."

"Do you want to stay here?" Teyla seemed to be a bit...shocked.

"I can't go back. They'll know something's changed about me," Cassandra shook her hair out. "The wraith I was died the moment those doctors injected me."

"I'm sorry," Teyla touched Cassandra's arm hesitantly. Cassandra shook her head.

"Don't be. What's done is done," she turned back to the ocean. "As a wraith, I could never appreciate this. The sky. The sun. The ocean."

They were silent until Cassandra had to go back a few minutes later.

"Thank you, Teyla Emmagan," Cassandra smiled from her door. "Please come again."

"I will, Cassandra. And call me Teyla."

Cassandra dreamed again that night, and for every night from that point forward. Yet another boundary had been lifted from her mind, making her more and more human each day.
