Dropping out of Hyperspace was the Titan class carrier the Dreadnought, and the Phoenix class ship the Excalibur .
Taking up position in orbit of the planet Thenoura below .
The two ships suddenly appeared before the Wraith.
Two hive ships and a cruiser had come to cull the population of the world below .
The Dreadnought launched Two hundred F302's at the hive ships and cruiser.
The Excalibur had sent ten F302's to the Stargate on the surface, the ten F302's entered the atmosphere at eight times the speed of sound ,they were at their target in minutes slowing to attack speed, the Tau'ri fighters scraped the ground with rail guns. Every Genii soldier and even heavy equipment that was in the strike zone was obliterated.
The first wave of Wraith darts had come through the active Stargate, and the Genii nuclear weapon had activated the bomb was counting down .
" This is Razor one to strike command the weapon is live I repeat the weapon is live "said the flight leader of the F302's.
On the bridge of the Excalibur John Shepherd the Pegasus fleet commander, gave the order to beam the Genii nuclear device away from the gate.
The weapon was beamed away, and a moment later reappeared in front of the hive ships active dart bay ,seconds later it detonated and and the explosion ripped through the hull of the hive ship the dart bay had been obliterated .
The F302's had rained hell down upon the hives and the cruiser,they fired their beam weapons and rail guns, as well as their ion weapons all the Wraith ships were about to go critical.
All of F302's were recalled to the safety of the carrier.
The ten F302's of the Excalibur returned to the ship .
The hive ships and the cruiser exploded .
" Contact Atlantis tell Mr Worsley that the mission was a success, we will remain in orbit and monitor for Genii communications for the next few hours "said Shepherd.
