INT-TAYLOR AND MARTIN'S QUARTERS

John is tossing and turning and sweating as if he's having a nightmare, about the incident on P4X-783 he gets up quick and is sweating as he looks around.

MARTIN
(breathes heavily)
What the hell where am I?

Marcia walks into the bedroom with some tea and sits on the bed.

MARCIA
Hey it's ok John you're safe it's been years since the incident.

John drinks the tea.

JOHN
(Sighs)
It feels like a few days.

She wipes the sweat off his face.

MARCIA
The day that happened I thought you were dead.

JOHN
(Smiles)
I thought I was and that they forgot about me, till the gate dialed and SG-17 came out of it and took me back to the SGC for treatment and recovery.

MASON
(Over Intercom)
Senior Officers report to the bridge, I repeat Senior Staff report to the Bridge.

They get dressed and head to the bridge.

INT-BRIDGE OF THE ENTERPRISE

Colonel Taylor and Major Martin walk onto the bridge.

TAYLOR
(to Mason)
Report?

Mason gets up from the chair.

MASON
We received a distress call from one of our off-world outposts in sector 346,
(Beat)
The Lucian Alliance are attacking.

EXT-SPACE

A fleet of Lucian Alliance Ha'tak motherships are bombarding P5X-847 with their Staff Cannons.

Act One

FADE IN

EXT-SPACE

(Notes: Opening Credits fall over opening Scenes)

A hyperspace (Atlantis version) Window opens and the Enterprise emerges from it and approaches a large Allied Fleet of Tau'ri and Jaffa Nation Motherships, and at the front of the ship is the newly constructed BC-305 Athena-Class Warship USS Athena.

INT-BRIDGE OF THE ENTERPRISE

Taylor gets up from her chair in amazement.

MARTIN
That's the Athena isn't?

TAYLOR
Yeah she was put into service after the Ori Crusade, Major give us a run down of her weapons.

Major Mason inputs commands into his console and gives a rundown on the Athena's weaponry.

MASON
6 Asgard plasma beam weapons, 36 Railguns, 24 VLS Missile Tubes Conventional, Nuclear and Naquadah-enhanced (Mark VIII, IX and XI) nuclear missiles. She's armed to the teeth Colonel she could rip through a BC-304 without breaking a sweat.

Sutherland looks at her console.

SUTHERLAND
(to Taylor)
Colonel General's Taylor and Martin are requesting to come aboard.

TAYLOR
(Smiles)
Granted tell them we'll meet them outside the port 302 Bay.

Sutherland inputs commands into her station.

CUT TO:
EXT-SPACE

A C-306 Shuttle enters the port 302 bay and lands as the bay doors closed.

INT-CORRIDOR OUTSIDE THE 302 BAY

Colonel Taylor, Major Martin, and Major Mason are in their dress uniforms, the airlock light goes from red to green.

MASON
PRESENT.....ARMS!

The security officers saluted with their rifles as the doors opened and Generals Taylor and Martin show up.

TAYLOR
Generals welcome aboard.

MAJ GEN. TAYLOR
Thanks Colonel we need to speak to the rest of the senior staff in the briefing room by 1400 hours about the gameplan.

TAYLOR
(Nods)
Yes, sir I'll see to it.

They leave the 302 bay.

INT-BRIEFING ROOM

MAJ GEN. TAYLOR
For months we've been spying on the Lucian Alliance, to keep tabs on their activities we've had the Odyssey make regular reconnaissance fly-bys of their home planet. When our spies stopped transmitting we assumed he was found out and he had to abort and escape through the Stargate, and he came back to the SGC both he and the Daedalus took pictures of theses.

General Taylor inputs a few commands into the screen and shows the attack of an SG Base and the pictures of the Alliance Home World.

LT GEN. MARTIN
This was an SG base that was used to train our SG teams on how to defend the base from attacks,
(beat)
now it's a wasteland four thousand two hundred lives lost and only one hundred fifty made it before the gate shuts down.

Then General Taylor chimes in.

MAJ GEN. TAYLOR
This image was taken about three weeks ago in the very same location. They're building ships. A lot of them.

The senior staff are shocked by this.

TAYLOR
We picked up the distress call but couldn't depart due to being in Spacedock.

LT GEN. MARTIN
Our plan is to head them off near sector 345, the fleet will drop out of hyperspace here to avoid an ambush.

Major Martin chimes in.

MARTIN
How are we going to disable a fleet sir?

The doors open and Kyle walks into the briefing room.

CLARKSON
Hey everyone I have a plan that can give us an edge in battle.

He inputs commands into the MSD in the briefing room.

CLARKSON
I've been reviewing previous engagements by the Odyssey and the Enterprise, and we have to upload a virus into their computer systems to disable the enemy fleet weapons.

Everyone is confused.

MASON
(Scoffs)
A computer virus? Are we forgetting that these are people not Aliens from Independence Day 1 and 2?

Colonel Taylor chimes in.

TAYLOR
No Major we haven't forgotten but we need any edge that can help us against the Alliance.

WILLIAMS
(to Clarkson)
I could give you a hand if you want me to sir?

CLARKSON
(Smiles, nods)
Sure think Chief.

Then Colonel Taylor chimes in.

TAYLOR
We've got less then an hour to get this ship ready for combat,
(Sighs)
let's bring it.

The senior staff leaves.

MAJ GEN. TAYLOR
Marcia stay I have an assignment for your ship.

Doors closed.

TAYLOR
What is it?

Sampson looks at James then back at his daughter.

MAJ GEN. TAYLOR
(Sigh)
A set of Mark-IX tactical nukes housed in a custom-made weapons platform, code name "Horizon," I ordered your ship to be fitted with it.

TAYLOR
(Shocked)
WHAT!

MAJ GEN. TAYLOR
(Sighs)
Marcia this thing is armed with six warheads and four decoys, I'm going to need your chief engineer to do a final inspection on the way there Marcia we need to send a message to the Alliance and this is it.

Taylor paces about.

TAYLOR
(Sighs)
And I was hoping not to use a nuke.

LT GEN. MARTIN
The Apollo used it once against the Replicators in Pegasus and it was effective.

TAYLOR
If I remember correctly Atlantis was forced off Lantea by the Pegasus Replicators.

MAJ GEN. TAYLOR
Look, would I have preferred taking out an entire planet at once? Absolutely. But this image is giving the I.O.A. a lot of sleepless nights. The Alliance know the location of Earth, and, with these new ships, have the means to get there. We can't just sit on our hands while the guys at Area 51 try to come up with a solution. Now, this mission's primary objective is to eliminate key military targets. We'll come back and finish once the new weapon is up and running. Marcia, I'm gonna need Chief Williams to start her inspections as soon as possible.

TAYLOR
(Sighs)
Yes, sir.

CUT TO:

JOHN

TAYLOR

John sits up.

JOHN
Marcia remember who you're talking to?

MARCIA
(Sighs)
Your father and mine have given us order, to nuke key military targets on the Alliance Homeworld.

JOHN
And you think we shouldn't use the Horizon platform?

MARCIA
(Nods)
Yeah.

INT-ENTERPRISE LAUNCH BAY

Chief Williams stares at the Horizon missile loaded high above her when Major Mason walks into the bay.

WILLIAMS
(Sighs)
Well, the specs check out and we've loaded the target information they're ready. Are you sure that you can handle it?

MASON
(Smiles)
Just give me a target and I'll fire it off.

WILLIAMS
(Sighs, Sadly)
I'll tell Colonel Taylor its ready.

EXT-Low Lucia Orbit Day

The Horizon missile lowers from the opening of the hangar bay. Its afterburner ignites and the missiles fly towards the surface. It breaks through the atmosphere then breaks into separate sections. The warheads separate from the missile and fly to designated targets, exploding on the surface. Atomic clouds in the separate locations fly high into the atmosphere.

Williams has a regretful looks.

WILLIAMS
(Sighs)

INT-ENTERPRISE AXUILIARY CONTROL ROOM

Screen shows the telemetry scans from Major Martin's recon mission, as both Colonel Taylor and Major Martin are with Chief Williams.

WILLIAMS
(Sighs)
There is so much radiation interference, it's hard to get an accurate yield calculation from the scan telemetry.

Then General Taylor walks into the Control Room.

MAJ GEN. TAYLOR
Someone, just please tell me if we hit our targets or not?

WILLIAMS
(Annoyed)
Alright, if this data is right…then all of your primaries and most of your secondary's have been incinerated.

MAJ GEN. TAYLOR
Excellent.

WILLIAMS
(Sighs)
Huh.

General Taylor leaves as his daughter follows.

SAMPSON
Something on your mind Marcia?

MARCIA
The next time there's a nuke mission I would like to be informed before we arrive to our mission.

They stopped walking.

SAMPSON
Oh so you want to be informed of your mission before you get to it,
(Beat)
this mission was given approval by the International Oversight Advisory Committee Marcia so it really wasn't up to me to inform you.

MARCIA
Dad you know they will respond to this attack.

SAMPSON
(Sighs)
Marcia they won't attack this fleet.

Then the intercom activates.

SUTHERLAND
(Over intercom)
Senior Staff report to the bridge.

They head to the bridge.
