Why this must be read:

McKay goes missing while offworld, and Team Sheppard springs into action to track him down. The determination of McKay's team to find him and bring him home safely creates a fast-paced adventure to the lovely team-y scene at the end in the infirmary. You'll be on the edge of you seat with excitement, enjoying the rush and the team-y love.

Story Summary: When McKay disappears after an attack, the rest of the team must find him before it's too late.

Rain – torrential, soaking rain. The kind that made rivers out of streets. The kind that washed away tracks.

Ronon squared his shoulders and stomped toward the steaming, charred husks of what once were homes and shops. The knot in the pit of John’s stomach, the one that cramped whenever his team was in trouble, twisted ferociously, almost driving him to his knees. He staggered forward, his mind registering the blurps of the rest of the rescue party exiting the gate while he kept his eyes on Ronon.

“Stay positive, John,” he whispered to himself. “This is McKay, the most resourceful guy you’ve ever met.”

And it was true. John had humored Elizabeth by asking McKay to be on his team, never anticipating the man would accept, and certainly never expecting him to stay, not after that first mission involving Wraith, Iratus bugs, and near-death by stargate. But Rodney’s healthy sense of self-preservation was usually overridden by an unrelenting curiosity that pushed him to strap on a gun and risk life and limb in the name of science. A man who had survived Wraith and Replicators and Kavanagh wouldn’t go quietly.
