Break on through to the Other Side

Whenever Destiny’s faster than light drive were engaged as it passed through the cornea of a sun the ship shook as if as a giant were turning over and over in restless slumber, for those aboard Destiny, if you were standing up at the time, you’d fall over; if you were sitting down at the time, you’d take a tumble right out of your chair.

Regardless, it felt much like being caught in a titanic whirlpool, the sensation of being shaken by an invisible giant, while your teeth vibrated in jour jaw as your every nerve ending vibrated like a strummed harp string, but travelling an incredible rate of speed at the same time.

You only thing one could do was hang on and hope for the best.
When the ship emerged on the other side, it took quite a while to recover, but all in all, it was an amazing experience. This time, however was different,

“What gives?” Liutenant Scott exclaimed,

“We’ve emerged on the other side, and according to our instruments, these are the coordinates that we were given by Dr. McKay…” Dr. Rush trailed off

“Why does this pause give me a sinking feeling in the pit of my stuck?” Colonel Young asked.

“Because unless we got a tow, we’re going to be stuck here for a while,” Rush replied.

“A tow?

“Sir,” Eli said, “We’re receiving an incoming transmission, says it’s from a ship called the Daedalus.”

“They say they’ve come from Atlantis.”

“Well, well, who would have thought, it looks like our message got through after all, and you were worried,” Young remarked, turning to give Dr. Rush a pointed look.

For his part, if Rush noticed either the look or the conversational barb, he chose to ignore it. Instead, he merely nodded. “I think we should take them up on their offer.”

Under his breath, Colonel Everett Young though’ ‘Damn arrogant bastard, as if I needed him to know what I should do here.’
aloud, he simply turned and told Lieutenant Scott; to respond to their hail, “Tell them, we’re standing by and thank you.”

“Yes, Sir,” Scott crisply replied and went off to rapidly issue instructions to those assigned to the task of using the Ancient communication stones.
