If this woman wasn't a passenger prior, then yes, I advise back up.

[ S i g h. Charles listens to silence, trying to get any cue of someone calling for Sheppard, but nothing. Just foot steps.

It could be anywhere. ]

You were worried about you a moment ago, and now I am. You don't sound right.

No, [ He says, answering a question that wasn't asked. Maybe he asked it of himself, firmly enough that it took shape-- ] It has to be Teer, who else could it be?

[ Chaya, Teyla, Larrin or Elizabeth. It feels like a woman's voice. Maybe it's Colonel Carter, but it feels... He wants to recognize the voice. He wants to with enough determination that he's convinced himself it's Teer, but there is so much room for doubt, and no time to let it in. ]

It doesn't matter about me. I have to go to her. I know you understand. [ Then he amends: ] You will understand, Charles.

Don't be-- John, don't do anything rash, please.

[ He's totally about to do something rash. In fact, Charles expects he has no choice, now. ]

You have to stay where you are--

No--no, I have to go. I have to go. [ A pause, and then it's very clear that Sheppard isn't talking to Charles any more. ] I'm coming. [ The sound of rushed footsteps and suddenly a heady whirl of static. ] Don't go -------- -- com---.

[ Disconnect. ]

voice;

[forgodssake]

John, wait--

[ But the static is familiar. He knows what that portends.

A disconnect. ]

Damn.
