OMG! What a chapter! I need to read the next chapter ASAP! I'm so happy it wasn't John that died...but having said that, I can't help but feel saddened by McKay and Ronan's deaths. You have done an amazing job with this story and that goes for all of your other work that I've read.
I'll be waiting patiently for the next installment!!!

Wow, thanks. :D I'm working on the next chapter now, but I have finals starting in less than a week, so I'm not going to guarantee anything.

--*blushes* Thank you so much.

I think this all came together very nicely. It's a wonderful and heart wrenching chapter. I loved it.

I was sad about Rodney and Ronon. :(

“Kolya,” John spat out as he recognized the leader of the group.

I think using Kolya and the Genii brought in an element to make the deaths just so much for heart-breaking. It becomes more personal for Sheppard & Teyla, instead of it just being a inhabitant of a planet or something. So, I really loved that.

Purpose giving her strength, Teyla pushed herself upright in the bed before ripping the IV out of her arm. Carson stared at her, thoroughly shocked, and she was up and out of the bed before he managed to get a word out.

I loved this scene - just visually seeing Teyla's adrenaline kick-in and Carson looking on, like 'WTH?'

Teyla could not help but notice that despite their closeness John was keeping his distance-he was not touching her at all. It was as if he was afraid.

Sighs, this breaks my heart.

“I can’t love you.”

kills me.

He let the sentence hang unfinished between them, but he ( ... )

--Thank you. I'm so glad that it worked. *wipes sweat off brow*

--I'd never really thought about it, but you're definitely right. I don't think it would have had the same effect had it been some random person.

--Lol. Poor Carson.

Sighs, this breaks my heart.
--*whimpers* I know.

Oooh, this is good.
--Thanks!

I actually hadn't been planning the end to be like that at all, but when the idea came to me I just had to write it.

Thanks for all the help and the feedback. *hugs*

I'm horrible! Lol. This was actually originally going to be a one shot that was essentially just this chapter. I found the idea of Ronon and Rodney both dying to be intriguing (but not in a morbid sense!) Just because it meant that it would stir up a lot of things in John.

Thanks for reading. :D

Thanks. I was aiming for sad, so that's a good thing.

I love Rodney too! It was so hard to write that scene. Eep!

Thanks for reading. :D

Yep, Ronon and McKay. I thought people might actually figure it out before hand, but I don't think anyone did. I was thinking that the title, (Then There Were Two) and the character death warning would give it away. *shrugs*

I really like it too, but in that sad way. And John isn't leaving her. I wouldn't do that. :D

Thanks for the feedback.
