Prelude

Battle

As part of their plan to get information in order to nuke all of the Hive ships in the galaxy, a combined team of Tau'ri and Genii soldiers take a Puddle Jumper to a landed hive ship that has not yet fully awakened from hibernation. There they take a Wraith data storage device to get the information they need on the Hive ships and Teyla tries to free cocooned humans, but the Genii soldier Tyrus kills one that awakens and alerts the Wraith to their presence on the Hive ship. Teyla tries to save Tyrus, but he is stunned and captured by Wraith guards and she is forced to leave him behind. The combined team escapes with the information they need and no further casualties, but the Tau'ri learn from the data that there are at least 60 Hive ships in the Pegasus Galaxy, possibly more.
