Chapter 1: Pathway to the Gods
--------
“Ducky! You better come over here and take a look at this stone!” the shout rang across the dune. “Coming” Ducky began to run across the hot sand of the dune, not bothering to wince as the host sand burned the bottom of her paws.
As if she suddenly hit an invisible wall in the desert sand, ducky stopped. She stared in complete awe at the object that lay before her. “It’s a cover stone! A real cover stone!”
Slowly ducky edged her paw towards the stone and dusted off the sand that lay on the first set of letters. With a heavy Diamondus accent Ducky read aloud the only sentence on the cover stone in a language forgotten to the rabbits: Egyptian. “The travel device of the gods. The Stargate. I alone can harness its power. I am Ra.
Meanwhile on the planet of Abydos…Shau’ri kissed her husband passionately on the lips. “Dan-Yur? Are we truly safe from Ra? I have seen Skaara take after our hero’s, yet what if there are more like Ra? The time that you leave us they will take Abydos from us, and take me from you”
“They will never take me from you, I shall never leave Abydos. If anything were to happen O’Neil will contact me. I don’t know about Ra, after I saw Hathor…I am no longer sure. Shau’ri? Are you asleep?” Shau’ri moaned to show Daniel that she was awake. Daniel lay beside her and placed his head on her shoulder. He fell into a quiet sleep knowing that his loving wife was by his side.
“Colonel Jack O’Neil? General West will see you now” O’Neil walked by the young soldier without commenting. He noticed that this soldier was fresh out of training and cocky too.
“Colonel O’Neil? At ease soldier” “As you know it has been 6 months since we established contact with the planet of Abydos. I want you and a team to establish contact with Abydos and make sure that none of Ra’s forces are within the perimeter of Nagada”
“Yes Sir!”
Silently O’Neil walked towards the missile silo that housed the Stargate. He could already hear the musical whir that gave the machine its wonder. As he entered the door he found his team already waiting for him.
Slowly and proficiently armed the team approached the stargate and walked through the gravity defying silver liquid. O’Neil emerged into the familiar docking pyramid that housed the Stargate on Abydos. “Let’s rest for tonight. Tomorrow we head out for Nagada”
Ducky slowly watched as the last of the “Stargate” was pulled from the ground. “Not let’s see how this works. According to the cover stone I should turn the wheels according to the signs on the stone. Like typing an IP address on a computer. Someone get me a ladder!”
Within minutes Ducky was on the ladder turning the wheels. To her surprise she was thrown backwards as the machine began to activate. A Gravity defying silver liquid filled the center of the ring. Suddenly someone tapped Ducky on the back. “I’m sending a few rabbits with you. You will all be equipped with laser blasters. Now go.”
Ducky and her team went through the device and emerged on a planet unfamiliar to them, facing a species she had never seen. Suddenly they began to fire on her and her team without warning.
“JEZZES! Ra is back!” Kawalsky screamed to O’Neil as he dodged one of the energy blasts. “I don’t think so soldier. These are guns and don’t use the quartz we are used to seeing. HOLD YOUR FIRE MEN! HOLD YOUR FIRE!” O’Neil Screamed at his soldiers.
