Stargate Legacy

note: This is the first of a new series follwing the SGC and it's teams as they go through the Stargate. There are 10 episodes to each season, and another season may follow if the reviews are good enough. This is my first FanFic so any ideas for the episodes, as well as comments and reviews, are always welcome.

Episode One= Heroes

P3X-666

During The Events Of Heroes

A windy breeze passed without disturbance on the surface of P3X-666. The leaves of a tree rustled, before an Al'Kesh rammed into the tree. The Goa'uld bomber hit the ground, spraying dirt and debris over the battling factions. Several SG teams battled to hold the Stargate as wave upon wave of enemy jaffa swarmed them. Dr. Fraiser ran through the smoke and weapons fire to locate the cries of an injured airman. She stumbled into a clearing and came face to face with a jaffa, bullet holes riddled down his left arm. He raised his staff weapon at Fraiser as she stood terrified. "No!" yelled someone from her right and was tackled to the ground just as the jaffa fired, missing her. Teal'c appeared, shot the jaffa in the back and said "lieutenant Watson, your assistance is required!". Dr. fraiser picked herself up from lieutenant Watson, who had just saved her life.

"Thanks…" she said before rushing to the injured airman.

What did I do to deserve this…? Watson thought, as his mind drifted back to a training exercise.

SGC Training Ground

Before The Events Of Revisions

"-and don't let them shoot you, either!" barked O'Neill at the four-strong group of SGC recruits. A sharp "yes sir!" was the reply.

"Your twelve minutes start… now!" he said and ran off. Fires sprang into life amongst the ruined cars and piles of debris. The team of recruits darted through to the warehouse.

"Watson, Bookie, take the left. Lee, with me." Ordered the group's leader, Raymond Peters. They split up into pairs and manoeuvred around the warehouse, before red bolts of energy rained on Watson and Bookie. They stumbled behind a wall and returned fire with the same energy weapons, which looked like ordinary pistols and assault rifles. The firing stopped and they darted to the central room where Peters was waiting for them.

"Took your time…" he said briskly.

"Where's Lee?" inquired Bookie.

"Hit in the face while not paying attention." He replied, "How about you disarm this bomb before it goes off?" he asked in a strained voice.

"Bomb?" cried both Watson and Bookie. Immediately, Bookie started tinkering with it.

He stopped and looked up at Peters and shook his head glumly. Peters sighed before saying: "now we run."

They ran to the exit, in the general direction of the gate when Watson had an idea. He turned on his heel and ran back to the warehouse, shouting down the radio: "I'm going back for Lee!"

Peters responded with a: "why go back and risk your neck for someone?"

Watson entered. He guessed he had at least 2 minutes left and it took 3 to get to the gate. He ran down the path Peters and Lee took earlier and tripped over something sprawled on the ground: it was Lee. Watson bent down and picked up the unconscious woman. He ran at full pelt to the gate when a flash behind him meant that the exercise was over. Putting Lee down, he sat on the bonnet of a rusted Robin Reliant and sighed. "Cheers." Said Lee, making him jump.

"Tiff, you're alright?" he said, confused.

She nodded as Peters and Bookie ran into view, pursued by a not-too-happy O'Neill. "Well done!" the colonel said. He was giving them praise! "You all made an ass of yourself!" …or not.

The colonel stood over the 4 recruits. "Let's review, shall we?" he said mockingly. "First off, you all made it inside safely. Not like the last batch." He was referring to recruit James "thunderpants" Tracey, the only recruit to get his pants set on fire barley 45 seconds into the exercise. "You split up, a good move… but I noticed that when I fired shots at you two-" pointing at Lee and Peters "-you didn't run for cover! Not to mention friendly fire!" Watson and Bookie glared at peters. "But most of you made it to the package. I noticed that you tried to disarm it?" he inquired at Bookie.

"Yes sir, though I couldn't do it sir."

"Why ever not?"

"I was unfamiliar with the technology, sir."

"At least you're honest. Then you ran off, not caring for your fallen comrade, except for Watson, who doubled back. That was when I heard an ass of a comment issued by Peters." Peters suddenly became interested at a bent tin can on the floor. O'Neill continued "I was glad that Watson remembered the saying at the SGC `no one gets left behind`. Unfortunately, he died with Lee while escaping." Watson felt sad. Now he'll never get picked to go on missions through the gate. "You'll get your off-world training assignments in due course, but for now, you're all dismissed!"

SGC

During The Events Of Heroes

Lieutenant David Watson stood amongst the group of soldiers, waiting for the Stargate to finish dialling.

"Chevron 3 encoded!" said Sgt. Walter Harriman over the spinning symbols on the gate. General Hammond gave a quick briefing to the assembled group. "a recent report from SG-13 indicates that they are under attack from Anubis' forces. SG-3 is at the scene, taking casulties. Your mission is to extract them from P3X-666 as quick as possible. Do not try to take on the enemy." A chorus of "yes sirs" filled the gate room.

"Chevron 7, locked!" A bubbly mass that represented the formation of an unstable vortex plumed out in the usual `KAWOOSH!` before receding into the rippling event horizon of a stable connection.

"SG teams 1, 5 and 7, God's speed." Said the general as they filed out of the gate room and into the Stargate.

The first thing Watson realized as he stepped out of the event horizon and onto P3X-666 was that something was wrong. a shot of orange weapons fire hitting the gate made him dive for cover.

"It's an ambush! all units, scatter!" yelled O'Neill through the radio. Concentrate on the mission. Watson thought as his mind drifted to engage the enemy. His top priority was to protect Dr. Fraiser as she attended to the wounded. He spotted her ducking for cover behind the DHD. Watson ran over to her.

"I see injured over there!" she shouted over the noise of the battle.

"Looks easy!" Watson replied as she pointed to a wounded soldier as he lay slumped and bleeding against a tree. Just then, 3 Al'Kesh's arrived to spice things up a bit. They rained volleys of plasma bombs on the SG teams as they fended off the jaffa. Watson and Fraiser made a dash to the wounded soldier. Assessing that it was minor, she signalled for them to move on. Smoke was issuing from several craters from the bombing run.

Someone must have had a bazooka with them as a large, smoking projectile lodged itself in the cockpit of an Al'Kesh and exploded, causing it to hurtle into a tree, and then the ground, spraying mud and metal everywhere.

Watson stumbled through the smoke and saw Fraiser about to be shot by a jaffa. "No!" Watson yelled as he tackled Fraiser to the ground, although it was to be a simple dive.

Then Teal'c appeared and dealt a deadly blow to the jaffa. "Lieutenant Watson, your assistance is required!" he said.

"Thanks…" Fraiser said before rushing to attend to the stricken airman.

What did I do to deserve this…? Watson thought as he jogged after Teal'c.

It turned out that Watson's assistance was required to help stop enemy jaffa from overwhelming the teams at the gate. Watson and Teal'c fired their weapons, cutting the flank of the enemy jaffa down. When they were taken care of, O'Neill shouted over the radio: "all units, fall back to the gate! I repeat, fall back!"

"I need more time to stablize some wounded, colonel!" replied Janet over the radio.

"Alright, all units, hold them off until the wounded are out of here!"

The next thing watson remembered was Dr. Jackson shouting over the radio: "Fraiser's been hit! Help!" Watson and Teal'c darted back to the clearing, only to find a wounded airman, an emotional Daniel, and the lifeless body of Dr. Janet Fraiser.

Somehow, Teal'c, Watson and Daniel carried the airman and Fraiser's body back to the gate, where the remenants of SG-3 were waiting. They all darted through the gate, before the connection was terminated.

Twelve Days After The Events Of Air, Part 3

Colonel Watson knocked on the door to General Landry's office. "Enter" was the reply. Watson entered.

"Ah colonel, take a seat," he did so, "I have read your record, and I have decided to give you command of SG-28."

"T-thank you sir…" said Watson, a little confused.

"No need to thank me, you deserve this." the general replied. "you will need to pick out members for your team, though."

"Yes sir." Watson said as he received the application forms. He smiled at the first name on the list: Dr. Rodney McKay.

"But why, sir?"

"Because we need good men like you out there in charge of these teams, and anyway, it was either this or promotion." the General smiled.

Atlantis

Dr. McKay had his bags packed the minute the application form went to the SGC. With Sheppard, Teyla and Ronon on SG-2, McKay felt left out. It wasn't his fault that Woolsey wanted him to stay and help catalouge some items they had found. But it was obvious: McKay was smart, the other scientists were not. He had leapt for joy (literaly, much to the rest of the department's relief) when he received an application approval notice, and was already waiting at the newly installed transport rings when they activated, shuntered upwards, re-materialise a man before falling back to the ground.

"Dr. McKay?" asked the man.

"Yes hi. Which team am I on? Is it SG-2, or SG-1?"

"Uh, I'm Col. Watson…"

"Yes, hi. Now, which team?"

"I am the leader of SG-28…"

"Yes, hi… which team?" it was clear that he was getting impatient so Watson spat it out.

"SG-28…"

"WHAT? I should be at least on a front-line team!" McKay cried.

"But SG-28 is a front-line team, well, sorta…"

"Oh, very well. I could put my talents to good use, I suppose."

"Excellent! Our first breifing is at 0900 on Tuesday, so you'd better pack-"

"I already have."

"Oh, good." Watson said, noticing the bags. What am I getting into this time… he thought.

SGC

Watson had assembled the rest of the team by Tuesday. SG-28 now consisted of: Col. David Watson, Dr. Rodney McKay, Sina/Motac, the Tok'Ra members of the team, and Sel'Ric, a jaffa. It turned out that the whole idea of SG-28 was to combine an ancient expert, an SGC militry officer, and two other members from Earth's longest allies. During the breifing, they were all introduced, were informed of their mission and all seemed to go well, that is, until the mission started.
