Why this must be Read:Lorne the Space Pirate, nuff said! No Seriously I Love this, Lorne as the Captain with a motley crew of Zelenka, Parrish, Cadman and Katie Brown searching for McKay to rescue Sheppard, while running from the Space Force.

“Oh hell.” Lorne would recognize the whir of that ship coming in to dock from a hundred miles, and it’s considerably closer than that. “Cadman, Parrish, time to go!”

On the other side of the scrap lot, two heads come up from the guts of an engine, and Lorne can see Parrish drawing breath to argue. He jerks his head at the sky, feeling for his gun. “Space Force! Unless you *want* Atlantis towed and the five of us thrown in jail.”

And wouldn’t that just be the icing on the cake of a truly crappy week, getting tagged by a Space Force patrol on a planet so far out it seemed totally safe to dock legally, for once.

Parrish is stuffing engine parts into his holdall, Cadman standing over him with her gun in her hand, and Lorne can see the ship, hovering right over the dock they have to get out of. He taps his comm on. “Zelenka? We’ve got company; can you get her powered up?”

There’s a beat of silence, followed by a Czech expletive. “Yes, yes. You’re on way back?”

“No, I thought I’d let you take off with my ship and leave us stranded here.” Not for the first time, Lorne reminds himself that his crew are brilliant and, when that doesn’t work, that he actually can’t fly Atlantis without them.
