Okay, this is my first attempt at a crossover and my first with these two shows.  I am going to begin by admitting my unfortunate ignorance when concerning some aspects of both of these shows.  I have not seen nearly enough of Stargate SG1, and I only have the American version of YuGiOh to go by.

            So, if anyone is out of character I apologize now, it is just my pathetic attempt at capturing a character that I probably can't.  Oh, and this chapter doesn't really get to YuGiOh yet, but it will in the next chapter.  There are some aspects of YuGiOh, which I'm sure you'll see. 

            And this is an important note; I must thank Katya (did I spell that right?) for allowing me to use some of the aspects of her story Void of Tears, which is very good if you haven't read it.  They don't really show up yet, but if you've read the story they will start to creep up next chapter.  This story pretty much came to me (was inspired by) that story.  So thank you again for letting me grab some of your story.

            Last but not least, I own absolutely none of the characters from either show, either Stargate or YuGiOh.  Only one character do I own, which is Siris/Kathryn, and she doesn't show up yet.

So, please read and enjoy.   ^_*

            "SG1 report to the command room immediately!  I repeat, SG1 report to the command room immediately!"  Hammonds voice suddenly blared over the loud speaker.  Daniel Jackson quickly pushed his most recent studies to the side and hurried out of his office, taking one last sip of his coffee on the way.

            "Hey, Danny boy, what do you think is up this time?"  Colonel O'Neil comments as he moves to walk with Daniel.

            "I'm not sure Jack, but it definitely sounded important."  Absently Daniel pushed his glasses back up further on his nose, while Jack nodded in agreement and sped up his pace a bit, which Daniel matched.

            Major Carter, Teal'c, and Jonas were already in the room when they arrived.  Hammond motioned for them to sit and cleared his throat, still standing behind the chair at the head of the room.

            "Okay folks, we have a situation.  As of one hour ago we lost all communication with anyone outside of this base on earth, and I mean everyone." 

            "Sir, what about the satellite communication system, or the direct link to Washington or the Pentagon?"  Carter asked.

            "No good.  I tried to contact our people at the gate, all we got were a few minutes of sound and a brief visual, neither look good."  Turning around, Hammond clicked on the video screen.  Suddenly the screen showed the outside of the base surrounded in what looked like blue and black swirling clouds obscuring everything in sight.  They could barely make out the front gate.  The guards where nowhere to be found and what sounded like distant thunder accompanied with a stiff wind could be heard occasionally.  After a couple of minutes the screen went black and Hammond turned his attention back to his best team.

            "What the hell was that?"  Jack suddenly blurted out, his brown eyes wide with concern.  His statement and emotion was echoed on the other four in the room.

            "I wish I knew.  Whatever it is, has cut us off from everyone else, but I am inclined to believe that we are only a side effect, not the target."

            "What would bring you to that conclusion General?"  Teal'c questioned with one eyebrow rising up.

            "Because of the last bit of communications I have from Russia and some of the other sites around the world.  None of them have any sound, but they have the exact same image as what you just saw.  From what I can tell, the whole planet is surrounded by this phenomenon."

            "Is it possible that the Goauld are responsible for this?"  Daniel put in.

            "I doubt it.  The Goauld don't have anything that can do this type of attack, if that's what it is.  And there have been no Goauld activity near Earth, and nothing of this magnitude can be controlled from such distances.  The technology involved in this must be astronomical."  Carter answered.

            "Okay, so it isn't the Goauld, and there are no other alien races close enough to do this, so what do we have, cause this definitely is not natural."  Jack spoke up.

            "That is what I want you to find out.  I am charging you with the mission of gathering some information on this.  I want you to go up there and look around.  But if, as I suspect, communication won't work outside of this base, I want you back in 48 hours.  Your mission is purely reconnaissance.  I want to know what we are dealing with, and who.  Dismissed."

            "Yes sir!"  All five members of SG1 said at once and immediately got up and went to get their supplies.  Once out of the room Jack told them to meet him by the elevator, then the five of them went their separate ways.

            "Okay kids, are we ready?"  Jack said when everyone was gathered.  Receiving all affirmatives they stepped into the elevator.  

            "We are only going to floor eight.  After that we have no communication so we will walk.  I don't want to get stuck in an elevator because the power isn't cooperating, and it is also possible that somehow we are overrun.  So, in other words, we walk from there." 

            The ride was rather short but was very tense.  Teal'c and Jack where in front when the doors opened on level eight.  Motioning for everyone to follow they quickly made their way to the stairwell. 

            They made their way up carefully, checking each floor for any signs of activity, of which there was none.  When they finally came to the door leading outside, they all watched intensely as Jack slowly pushed it open.  Outside they saw for themselves the awful change that had come over the sky.  Swirling blue and black, nothing else was visible.  Exiting the compound they walked silently towards the guards booth.

            "It's as if the whole planet has been enveloped by some sort of shroud, blocking us off from all that's around us."  Carter mentioned. 

            "I believe that we should take a close look at our perimeter and see if there is any way to see what is happening in the closest town O'Neil."  Teal'c suggested.

            "Yep.  Okay, Jonas, Danny, you're with me.  Carter, you and Teal'c take a look around the other side.  We'll meet at the halfway point."  Nodding the team split up, Carter and Teal'c heading to the left and Jack and the others heading to the right.

            The walk around the perimeter of the mountain was uneventful; there were no signs of any activity, or of any explanation.  When they met up they agreed to take a jeep and see if there was anything going on in the next town.

            When they were beginning to get close to the town they finally started to hear something besides the periodic sound of distant thunder.

            "I think I hear people over there."  Daniel stated. 

            "I believe you are right Daniel Jackson.  I hear them as well."  Teal'c agreed.  Without saying a word Jack pulled the jeep over and motioned for everyone to proceed on foot.  At the top of the next rise they stopped and looked down below, where there were indeed people, and..... something else.

            "My god, what are those things?!"  Jack exclaimed. 

            "They appear to be some sort of monster sir.  A very vicious one."  Carter responded.  Jack glanced quickly over at Carter's pale face and saw the horror that he was sure was also on his face.  Looking back he tried to think of a way to help those people.  He was just coming to the conclusion of just going and attacking them when he felt a hand on his shoulder.  Looking over he saw Teal'c, who had his head bowed and eyes closed, Jack got the message and motioned for the group to retreat.  They left the group of perhaps fifty people surrounded by at least sixty or so of some sort of beast, who's intent was very clear.

            As they left one of the monsters, a rather large brown bug, easily six feet tall, raised it's head and looked once in the direction that O'Neil and his crew were.  When nothing of interest showed itself the monster went back to it's feeding, as around it others were doing the same.

            Back at the jeep, the five members of SG1 stood in pensive thought.  They all wanted to do something, but they also knew they were helpless against so many strange creatures.

            "All right, listen up.  We need to see if we can at least reach the town, so we leave the road and make our way to Trowler's Creek.  We see what's going on there and whatever else we can find and then we hightail it back to SGC and give our report.  Let's just hope there is something we can do."  Solemnly the team followed Jack into the jeep and not a word was said as he turned the key and headed away from the activity and towards the next town.

            Parking out of sight of the town, the team made their way into town cautiously.  While there were no more of the beasts from the road there were others that seemed to be keeping watch over the town.  They managed to get into one of the buildings without notice, once inside they soon found the current occupants.

            Hiding in one of the rooms was a family of six; the father and two oldest sons immediately went on the offensive when Jack and company came running through the door.  The mother and two youngest, one boy and one girl, moved to the corner where they were more easily protected.

            "Don't come any closer or you'll regret it buster."  The entire family was more than just frightened.  This was a very big concern for the group, for from what they could tell, these monsters had only begun to appear about one hour ago.  But the way these people were acting it might have been going on for days.

            "Whoa, whoa.  We aren't gonna hurt ya.  We were just trying to get some information without being caught by those things out there."  Jack quickly spoke up.

            "So, you aren't working with them?  Are you going to get rid of them?"  The second oldest son said, pushing his black hair back out of his face. 

            "I wish we could, but there are far too many, and there is only five of us.  Besides that, we know absolutely nothing about them or their weaknesses.  We also only have a little over a day before our boss will be expecting us back with our report."  Jonas said sympathetically.  While the family obviously didn't fully trust the group they did tell them what little they knew and what had been happening over the last hour. 

            Jack had Daniel and Jonas stay with the family while Teal'c and Sam and him went to a few of the other buildings.  They would meet back with Daniel and Jonas in time to head back and report to Hammond.

            The drive back was in silence.  They had learned very little, and what they had learned was very disconcerting.  They had managed to avoid any confrontations, but the variety of monsters they had seen meant that whoever or whatever was behind this was obviously powerful and not sparing any on the offense.  The question that still remained was, what was the point?

~~~~~**~~~~~

"I'm glad to see that you all made it back safely.  So, what is your report?"

            "We regret to inform you sir, that as far as we can tell, the entire planet is now over run with a variety of beasts, besides being enveloped in this strange sky.  Also, it appears that as long as it is not involved in communication, all electric appliances are working.  However, we could find no evidence as to who or what is behind this."  Jack declared rather dismally.  Nodding his head Hammond gestured for everyone to be seated so they could try and come up with a plan.

            "All right, listen, from what you are saying we need more information and it would be too dangerous to go out and look for it.  Do any of you think that it might be possible for something like this to have happened on another planet?"
            "I believe it is a possibility sir.  It is possible that there are legends of something like this in some of the lore of the people we meet, or that there is some information from the Tokra themselves.  Both are worth looking into."  Jonas answered.

            "Right, Carter, I'd like you to get in touch with your father and see if the Tokra have any idea about what's going on.  O'Neil, you and Jonas will travel to the worlds where we have allies and see if there are any legends similar to what is happening to us now.  Teal'c, I would like you to go and see what the other Jaffa might know.  And Daniel, I want you to go through all the information you have in your room here and that is in our data base, there is a small chance that there will be some clue in our own history, and I want you to find it if it's there."             

            "Right sir, we'll just get off.  Out of curiosity, what will the rest of the SGC be doing while we're off hunting for information?"  Jack questioned.

            "Most will continue in the fight for the Goauld.  After all I don't think they will stop going after us even with what has happened.  I will have them all keep a lookout for possible clues of course.  And the rest will be working on a solution as well as tuning up security because if you are right about those monsters, they will eventually come here.  All right, you are all dismissed." 

            With that the five members of SG1 stood and headed out to either prepare or began their respective tasks.
