The Musketeers
Chapter 1: The Old Band Gets Back Together
"Daniel, close your damn mouth."
It snapped shut.
"Walter!"
The shorter man was by the trio's side within the split of a second.
"Yes sir General O'Neill."
"Who the hell are those men and what are they doing on my base?"
It hadn't been a minute ago that he had been just standing on the lunch line with Daniel and Teal'c, and Sam had been standing next to them. It had been a totally normal occurrence, ever since the promotion they tried to make as much team time as possible, and everyone had been acting just like their usual normal selves until all of the sudden a commissary entrance had caught the corner of Sam's eye.
Without warning it was as if all pretenses of being a brilliant mid-to-late-thirties Lieutenant Colonel astrophysicist went out the door, as apparently had Carter. In ten seconds flat Sam was across the room and in some strange man's arms! Highly odd yes but, it wasn't until the second guy came in that shit had officially hit the fan.
Daniel was standing with his mouth dangling open, still holding Sam's tray. Teal'c only cocked his head and raised an eyebrow. Jack was just trying to figure out who the hell was wrapping themselves up in his Colonel.
As soon as he caught her eye Sam Carter had turned and ran full speed towards the door and threw herself into the arms of the man standing there. He caught her expertly and swung her around full circle twice.
"What happened to emailing?" She yelped.
He smiled. "Guess we just wanted to surprise you."
Sam looked up confused, a half smile still left on her face.
"We?"
Cam's cute smile was replace by a shit-eating grin and, as if on cue, the doors to the mess hall were flung open. A devilishly handsome man glided in and held his arms wide open.
"Lucy! I'm home!"
Sam squealed and flew into the new stranger's arms.
Walter looked up timidly.
"Ah. Well sir, that first man is Lt. Colonel Cameron Mitchell. You ah, you asked him to fill in on SG1, on a trial basis?"
Jack made a frustrated but understanding noise.
"The second man is Lt. Colonel John Sheppard. I believe you were trying to decide whether to assign him here or to the Atlantis expedition."
Jack narrowed his eyes.
"Send them both to Netu."
Teal'c looked over askance while Walter just stepped back.
"I'll, ah, give you a minute to think about it sir." Cue Walter stepping back away slowly. No sudden movements. At all.
Jack straightened out his BDU's, suddenly he wished he was wearing his class A's. He turned to Teal'c and Daniel.
"Well then, let's go greet our apparent new friends."
The other two men exchanged a look over Jack's head, but followed him anyway. At the very least for the other's men's protection.
