Rodney looked up at him and then slouched against the console in defeat. Blaster fire started banging against the last door between them and the Wraith. "So this is it then."
The pressure from the last three days suddenly felt unbearable and John desperately wanted to sit down. He didn't want to die, he didn't want Rodney to die, he certainly didn't want to destroy Atlantis, but they couldn't allow the Wraith to reach Earth. John looked at Rodney's face and saw the same feelings mirrored there. They were just two men. That's all they were.
