Title: Where Is Thy Victory

Characters: Sheppard/McKay
Prompt: 14 - Loss
Rating: Mature
Length: Short
Brief summary: The Wraith win, and John and Rodney end up as prisoners together. The language in this short piece is wonderfully evocative, and the tension builds as we get to see everyone slowly ripped away from them, until all they have left is each other.
They have left John and Rodney for last.
They took Elizabeth on the first day, making everyone else watch as the five Wraith leaders fed upon her in turns, taking bits at a time. She never screamed; she made the most horrible, shuddery gasping sounds Rodney has ever heard, but she never screamed.
He knows he won’t be that brave, when it finally happens. He doubts John will, either.
After they had made their point with Elizabeth, they went through the Marines and the Athosians. They knew exactly what that would do to John and Teyla, making them watch as their people died one by one.
