Claim: Stargate Atlantis: Teyla
Title: Ritual

Characters: Teyla, Elizabeth
Prompt: 36 - Family
Rating: G
Length: Short
Brief summary: Elizabeth and Teyla are caught in a hailstorm on the mainland, and -- well, that's pretty much the action/adventure part of the story. Aside from that, it's a story of friendship, respect, and the definition of family in less than one thousand words.
There were reasons Dr. Weir didn’t go on missions through the Stargate, and Teyla was just now realizing how valid those reasons were. When even the known world, their new home, could attack them so violently, how dangerous could any of the planets outside her experience be? She ducked behind the rock wall again, half-sheltering Weir with her own body as the hail pelted down around them.
“Teyla,” Dr. Weir shouted through the ever-increasing noise. “We need to move. Now!”
“No!” Teyla covered both their heads with her bare arms, though they stung sharp and hot from the ice, and angled her mouth to Weir’s ear. “We cannot make it to shelter.”
