(Well all good things must come to an end and it's time to conclude this story. I don't feel like dragging it on and I believe that ending it like this would be going out on a high note. Thank you Lone-ranger1 for reviewing. Your reviews alone made this fic worth posting. Thank you and I hope you enjoy the ending.)

Teldy waited outside the gate room on the second floor, peering into the control room. There were four Hybrids, a lot less then she expected. The attacks on his facilities and ships must have really diminished Michael's army.

Unfortunately, it was still four against one. Two were inside the control room while the other two were standing guard right next to the active gate. Each one was armed with a simple Wraith stunner but it only takes one shot to put someone down with those. Except Ronon.

And the shaking in her hands was getting worse. Teldy doubted she could shoot straight in her current situation. There was no way she could pull off any kind of attack.

Suddenly, she heard footsteps behind her. Maybe there were more after all. Teldy spun around with her P-90 to come face to face with Teyla, also aiming her P-90. The two of them sighed, relieved.

"Teyla, am I glad to see you. I was afraid I was going to have to take all these guys on by myself." said Teldy.

"Any sign of Vega? She has Torran." asked Teyla.

"I haven't seen them. But I doubt they would still be here if Michael took him through the gate." said Teldy.

"How are you feeling?" asked Teyla. "My hands are shaking. It's not too bad. I can still fight." said Teldy.

"Good. Go to the lower level and take out the ones guarding the gate. There is less cover for them to take and should be easier to kill. I will take the control room. You fire the first shots, as soon as you do I will begin as well." said Teyla. Teldy nodded and moved silently off towards the stairwell.

Teyla wanted Teldy to get the opening shots so she would be able to take out the two guards beside the gate swiftly and quickly. Teyla also didn't know how well the Major would able to the other two as they would have an elevated advantage.

The Athosian waited patiently for Teldy to get into position. She had to be patient, she could not lose focus now. If they retake the control room, they could cut off Michael's escape route.

A double scratch noise came from Teyla's radio, quiet enough so only she could hear it. Teldy was ready. Telya double tapped her radio and then the chaos began.

Teldy opened fire on the closest Hybrid near the gate, dropping him. Teyla opened fire on a Hybrid near the gate control console, but she only managed to graze him as he ducked for cover. The other Hybrids took cover and fired back with their stunners. Teyla quickly ran forward, risking getting hit to advance into the control room.

The scene reminded Teyla of those action movies John showed her. She never understood how they always seemed to defy gravity. Rodney had his own opinion of them. "It's all because of the Matrix. That was an awesome movie and now Hollywood has to constantly copy off it because they can't make anything better or original." he said.

Teyla leaped forward, dropping to the ground. She aimed up at the Hybrid by the DHD console and fired a five round burst into his chest. He dropped the ground.

Meanwhile the Hybrid by the gate moved behind the event horizon, using it for cover. He suddenly ran forward to Teldy and smacked the P-90 out of her hand. He then tried a punch but Teldy ducked underneath it and drew her knife at the same time.

She brought the knife up and jabbed it into the Hybrid's face. He dropped to the ground, dead before he reached it. Teldy didn't have time to recover though before the final Hybrid, who was taking position in Woolsey's office, fired his stunner at her. She was unconscious before hitting the ground.

But this allowed Teyla the distraction she needed to get to her feet and fire a burst into the final Hybrid's head. Teyla breathed a sigh of relief as the final Hybrid dropped dead. All that was next was to wait… BOOM! Suddenly, pain shot up through Teyla's legs.

She dropped to the ground in pain as Teyla realized she had just been shot just above the heel. She turned her head to Vega holding a 9mm pistol in one hand and a portable baby bed in the other, the same one that Sheppard got her as a congratulations present.

Vega set the bed down gently, the flab open revealed Torran inside. Teyla reached for her P-90 but Vega lunged forward and kicked it away. Teyla swung her foot around, trying to trip Vega. But the Captain quickly jumped over it and kicked Teyla in the face.

Teyla fell onto her back, dazed. She didn't have time to recover as Vega stepped on Teyla's gunshot wound. The worst pain she had ever felt moved up her leg. She screamed. Vega then grabbed Teyla by the neck and hair and lifted the Athosian to her feet.

Teyla woppled on her injured leg. Just standing felt like it was on fire. Vega punched Teyla in the face. Then delivered another one. She smiled, Michael obviously enjoying this. Finally, Vega grabbed Teyla by the hand in a clinch. She pulled down Teyla's head as she brought up her knee right into Teyla's face.

Everything went blurry. Teyla dropped to the ground, her senses completely dazed. She spat out blood. Michael looked down at her with amusement. He chuckled. "Such a shame. I was hoping that you would have joined me but now I see that was just wishful thinking." said Michael.

He pulled out his pistol that he found on an unconscious guard. He didn't want to be weighted down by carrying anything else. Michael cocked it. "At least, I will have the privilege of killing you myself." he said as he aimed for Teyla's head.

Suddenly, the connection was broken. Michael opened his eyes to find himself back at the outpost. What happened? The gate was still active. The only explanation was that Vega has been rendered unconscious.

"NOOOOOOOO!" yelled Michael.

Teyla looked up at Michael aimed his pistol at her head. "At least, I will have the privilege of killing you myself." said Vega/Michael. Suddenly, her body convulsed as red energy spread along it.

Vega dropped to the ground unconscious, revealing Ronon behind her. And with his one shot, Ronon dropped to the ground exhausted. Teyla couldn't believe it.

"Ronon, how did you make it?" asked a delighted Teyla.

Ronon panted. "It wasn't easy and I don't intend on ever doing it again. In fact, I'm going to pass out now." he said before resting his eyes. Teyla couldn't help but chuckle from the whole thing. And just like that, all the unconscious personal began to moan and wake up.

She felt the pain again, only this time it was minor. More like a headache. Vega slowly opened her eyes to see that she was inside the infirmary. She glanced around to see Dr. Beckett, Colonel Sheppard, and Richard Woosley standing over her.

They told her everything. About the genetic tampering that allowed Michael to take control of her to the prions. Beckett had injected tiny droplets of her blood into all the city's personal. The tiny prions inside allowed the entire body's immune system to recognize the infection and destroy it.

Now one was killed thankfully. Some of the worst patients will need therapy to help them be able to speak properly again but everyone else was already back to normal. Porter managed to disable the bomb rigged by Michael in time. The whole thing hit Vega hard. She couldn't believe that she was manipulated so easily.

Once the three of them left, Teyla walked in. "Captain, how are you feeling?" she asked. "I'm okay. Doctor Beckett gave me some retrovirus therapy to remove all the genetic tampering Michael did so I'm no longer a walking health hazard." said Vega.

"That is good to hear." said Teyla. "Is Torren okay?" asked Vega. Teyla nodded. "Yes, he is fine." she said.

"Teyla, I am so sorry about what happened…" Vega started to say before Teyla stopped her.

"You do not have to apologize. You were just as much a victim as all of us were, maybe even more." Teyla said, trying to cheer her up.

"But I…" Vega tried to get out but again Teyla interrupted her.

"You're blood type is the reason why no one died today. If Michael had taken someone else with a different blood type, many people would have died. Everyone in this city is alive today because of you." said Teyla.

"I don't know how I can come back here, after everything that has happened." said Vega.

"I'm sure your team will not feel the same without you. Don't make any rash decisions. Go home, see your family." said Teyla.

"Thanks Teyla." Vega said. Teyla smiled and nodded. She turned and passed by Lieutenant Venner as he walked in. Vega moaned upon seeing him.

"What do you want?" asked an annoyed Vega.

"Sheez, hello to you too. What no hi, how ya doing?" said Venner. That's when Vega noticed that Venner was holding something behind his back, hiding it from her sight.

"What's that you got?" asked Vega. To her surprise, Venner brought a Heineken beer bottle, Vega's favorite kind. He set it down right beside her. "I have a friend onboard the Daedalus who keeps various beverages onboard. Colonel Caldwell doesn't mind as long as he gets a few. I had to pull quite a few strings to get that exact kind. Just don't let the doctors see it." he said.

"How did you know?" asked Vega. Venner smiled. "Doctor Porter was a very helpful source of information, unlike Sergeant Dusto." he said, still always making fun of Dusty. Vega didn't know what to say.

"You didn't have to do this." she finally said. "Come on, of course I had to. It's something I hope someone does for me." Venner said.

"You mean, if you get kidnapped by Michael, get turned into a biological weapon that can kill everyone around you, and after a week of retrovirus therapy, all you'll want is a Heineken?" asked Vega, playfully.

"That's getting cold you know. If you don't want, I'll be happy to have it." Venner said. Vega popped the lid off and chucked it into her mouth. The taste was so good.

"Well, I've got to be going. I just got assigned to Major Lorne's team and we're about to go off world." he said, starting to walk backwards as if he doesn't want to go but is trying to force himself.

"Alright, I'll see you around." said Vega. "Glad to hear that." said Venner before turning and walking out the door. Vega had to admit, he was cute. Dusty would go postal if she heard that. With that thought, Vega took another sip of her beer.

(Yes I know what some of you are thinking. The Atlantis writers said that Vega is gay. Well guess what, they killed her off and never used her so as far as I'm concerned I can make her anyway I want. Will there be a sequel to this? The answer is of course there will be. I just need to think of one. Thanks for reading folks.)
