Daniel- adult or a Kid?
Author: Rosenquist
Hi everyone this is my first fan fiction.
Rating: PG. No paring.
Disclaimer: I don't own any Stargate sg-1 characters I just borrowing them and I'm not making any money of this.
Summery: Daniel has de aged to a 4 to 5 year old, he has his adult memories and Jack is treating him like a kid just like every one else and Daniel isn't a happy camper about that at all.
Warnings: one of the characters will have an accident, but this story isn't a death fic so she or he will survive. An adult stranger wants something from de aged Daniel, but someone will come to his rescue.
Sorry if there are misspellings or grammar error. I don't have a beta.
Somewhere off word on p2x-122 is SG-1, the natives there welcomed sg-1, they offered them food and shelter, they where very peaceful people. What sg-1 didn't know was that they can see people's past and they are most interested in seeing how there childhood has been, too them, happy childhood is very important and when they can see that the person had an unhappy childhood, then there law says that they have too help that person and give him a second chance to get a happy childhood. In Sam they could see some sad times when her mother died, but beside that she had a happy childhood, in Jack they could see that he also had a happy childhood with his parents, including Teal'c had one and in Daniel they could see that in his early years he had a happy childhood but it stopped when his parents died and everything changed and his childhood became a nightmare.
When it became bedtime the natives gave sg-1 a special drink, they told them that the drink is custom to drink before bedtime. After they finished the drink they went to bed and went out cold. The natives made sure that they were fast asleep and then they took Daniel to the treatment facility.
The next day Teal'c was the first one to wake up and not long after Sam and Jack too but Daniel still slept they tried to wake him up but with no luck. They were little worried about Daniel, Sam checked him over, he had a normal puls and steady breathing so they thought that Daniel just needed to sleep and they let him, an hour later Daniel woke up and asked them why they hadn't woke him up.
"Believe me Daniel we tried to wake you, but you were dead to the world!" Jack said.
"Daniel how are you feeling?" Sam asked.
"I feel fine ….. I think."
"What do you mean by think? Either you are or aren't," Jack said.
"I don't know how to explain it… it's...like… something inside of me is different. Maybe it's because I have had a peaceful sleep with out nightmares this night and it's first time sins my parents died I have been able to have that."
"That's good Daniel you deserve that, I hope for you that you won't suffer from more nightmares," Sam said.
"Maybe it's this world that's have a calm effect on you Daniel," Jack said.
"Yeah maybe, I'm hungry I will get some breakfast and coffee," Daniel said.
After sg-1 had breakfast they talked to the leaders of the natives. They found out that the natives didn't have more advances technology then on earth but they have naquada. In exchange for nauguda the natives wanted medical supplies.
Sg-1 went back to SGC and another SGC team went to p2x -122 for the exchange.
Sg-1 had there physical check up and everything was normal even Daniel's test appeared to be, but something with Daniel isn't normal at all and they will soon find out.
After the debriefing General Hammond told them to take a 3 days vacation and that he didn't want to see them at the SGC in those 3 days except for Teal'c because he lives there. Daniel and Sam were told that they wasn't aloud to take work home and were ordered to rest and they weren't happy about that.
The next morning when Daniel woke up he felt strange, he felt younger. Daniel went to the bathroom and got water on his face when he saw himself in the mirror, he was shocked, not only did he feel younger, but he also looked younger, younger then when he opened the stargate the first time even his hair has the same length.
Daniel took a shower and got dressed and went to the SGC and on the way there he bought a baseball cap to take on, so that he could hide his long hair because the SF at the check in will for sure be suspicious about him with his long hair.
"Dr. Jackson, General Hammond has ordered us not to let any member from sg-1 in before your vacation is over."
"I know but something has happened and I need to get in and talk to General Hammond and Dr. Fraiser!"
"Sorry doctor but I have orders."
"Then please call the General"
The SF phoned the General.
"Sorry General Hammond to disturb you but Dr. Jackson is here at the check in and wants to get in…..yes sir I know your orders but …. He says that something has happened…"
"Doctor the general wants to talk to you."
The SF gave Daniel the phone.
"Good morning Hammond I know you ordered that….no I'm not here to work…something really happened to me and I'm freaked out when you see me you will understand I promise."
"Okay son, go straight to the infirmary and I will meet you there."
General Hammond was worried about Daniel, he called Dr. Fraiser and told her that Daniel is on his way to her and that he sounded agitated and that he will be there shortly too.
General Hammond reach the infirmary before Daniel. Dr. Fraiser asked him if he know what exactly the problem is.
"No Dr. Jackson only told me that something has happened to him and that it freaks him out and that I will understand when I see him."
Just as he said that Daniel came in.
"So son tell us what has happened to you" Hammond said.
Daniel took of his baseball cap.
"As you can see. My hair has grown long over night and I'm looking younger. Younger then I was when I joint sg-1. I think that something happened to me at p2x –122."
"You are right son you are looking younger let Dr. Fraiser look you over," General Hammond said.
"Okay Daniel get to the exam table and get a scrub on and I will be with you in a minute," Dr. Fraiser said.
"Doctor do a DNA test on him and make sure that this is Dr. Jackson, to make sure that he is not an impostor or a clone. Like the colonel's young clone, " General Hammond said.
"Yes sir."
"I have a meeting that I have to attend to inform me if there are any news, I will order 2 SF outside the infirmary just as a precaution. I will order Mayor Cater and colonel O'Neill back to the base," general Hammond said.
Colonel O'Neill and Mayor Cater weren't happy about that they were ordered back, but when General Hammond told them that it was about Daniel they got worried and couldn't be there fast enough.
30 minutes later Dr. Fraiser called General Hammond.
"sir Dr. Fraiser here it's about Dr. Jackson he is still changing I'm afraid it's serious."
"Doctor how serious is it."
"You better come and see it for yourself."
"I will be there right away."
Few minutes later General Hammond visit Daniel in the infirmary and he was chocked when he saw Daniel look like a 16 year old.
"Sir Daniel is in a coma it happened 5 minutes ago and he is de aging more rapidly now, if it continues that way soon he will only be a fetus and will surely die."
"Let's hope that won't happen I will try to contact our allies and ask them for help."
"Then get them to come fast because I'm afraid that there isn't much time."
"Okay Doctor I will contact them right away and tell them to come fast as they can."
Just as General Hammond left the infirmary Teal'c, Sam and Jack came to visit Daniel, Janet told them how bad Daniel's condition is. They were also chocked and afraid to loose Daniel, they stayed at his bedside and didn't wont to leave him for one minute.
At first Daniel de aged every 5 minutes but now every minutes.
20 minutes after the general left the infirmary Daniel had de aged to about a 8 year old.
"Why is this happening to Daniel, he hasn't done anything to deserve this," Sam said.
"No he hasn't" Jack and Teal'c said in unison.
"Daniel we are here for you," Jack said.
3 minutes later he was about 4 to 5 year old. The general came and told them that he haven't heard from there allies.
"Where are they when we need them," Jack said. He was frustrated and afraid that they will loose Daniel ones again and this time for real and he thought that it wasn't fair, they just recently got him back after his acension.
5 minutes later, Daniel hasn't changed since.
"Janet do you think that the de aging finally has stopped?" Sam asked while Dr. Fraiser examined Daniel.
"It's seems that way and let's us hope so."
They all prayed including Hammond that it has stopped. 30 minutes later and he still hadn't changed. Dr. Fraiser told them that she believed that the de aging finally had stopped.
"Do you think that he has his adult memories when he wakes up?" Sam asked.
"I don't know, but I hope that he hasn't, because it is to much to handle for a 4 year old with those memories and I'm convinced that he wont let himself be a child," just as she said that Daniel woke up.
"Good morning sleepy head how are you Danny boy?" Jack asked.
"Jack….I'm fine, but I had a weird dream I dreamt that I turned into a child again I'm glad that it was only a dream……….hey wait a minutes my voice sounds funny…it sounds like a child……oh I must still be dreaming….aw!!!! why did you pinch me Jack?"
"So you felt that. I'm sorry to tell you Daniel you aren't dreaming. You have de aged to a 4 to 5 year old," Jack said.
"noooo!!! It must be a nightmare."
"Sorry Daniel, but the colonel is right you have de aged to a child. The general have contacted our allies and let us hope that they know how to turn you back as you were before all this," "Daniel how much do you remember from your past?" Dr. Fraiser asked.
"I remember everything."
"So you have all your adult memories?"
"Yes I'm born July 8. 1970 my parents names was Claire and Melbourne Jackson, I opened the Stargate I'm a widower my wife's name was sha're etc." "when can I go home? I don't wont to stay here because I feel fine accept from that I'm in a child's body."
"Sorry Daniel you just woke up from a coma and you have de aged to a 4 year old. You have to stay here for a while for observation, to make sure that you are physically and mentally alright."
"5 year old Janet not 4 and I'm mentally alright."
"Okay then 5 but you have a lot to digest and there will be some changes like things you can't do anymore now that you are 5 years old."
"Yes Janet my body is 5 but not my soul and memories they are 35 years old"
"we can talk more about that later now you have to eat something and after dinner you have to rest."
"Teal'c and I can get something for him at the commissary. What do you like to have Daniel?" Sam asked.
"coffee and some sandwich please that would be nice, thank you Sam."
"no coffee for you young man. Give him some milk Sam." Dr. Fraiser said.
"Janet please I want coffee I don't drink milk."
"It's not for debate Daniel as long, as you are so young you can't have coffee and you need milk for your growth."
"But….."
"No buts Daniel I'm the Doctor here."
Daniel wasn't happy at all and they could see that in his face.
"Be a good boy Danny," Jack said.
"I'm not a boy Jack I'm a man in a small body, so don't treat me as a child."
"Well….. Danny…."
"Stop Jack I don't want to here it! And my name is Daniel not Danny."
Teal'c and Sam weren't interested in joining the argument and went to get some food for Daniel. They brought milk and not coffee because they where more afraid of Janet's wrath then Daniel's.
Daniel made faces when he saw milk instead of coffee, he ate his sandwich and red Jello, but he didn't touch his milk.
"Drink your milk Daniel it's Doctor's orders," Dr. Fraiser said.
"No thank you, you can't make me!!!"
"Danny…..sorry Daniel….. do you really want to get the Doc angry, she has some really long needles…." Jack said.
"I don't care I don't want milk, but some water would be nice please."
"Okay Daniel this time you can leave the milk and drink some water instead, but if you have to be a child for long, you have to start to drink milk so you can get some calcium." Dr. Fraiser said.
"I'm not intending to be in a child's body for long. I hope our allies knows how to make me big again."
Both Dr. Fraiser and Jack were also hoping that there allies knows how to turn him big again they were afraid how Daniel would react if he have to grow up all over again like any other normal child.
"Daniel we have to get someone to buy you some cloths and other things you need." Dr Fraiser said.
"I will do that doc, Teal'c and Cater do you want to join me?" Jack asked.
"Jack please stay with me for little while longer I don't want to be alone right now."
"Okay Daniel I will stay, Cater, Teal'c do you mind go to the mal and buy stuff for Daniel?"
"Of couse sir" Cater said.
"I will too." came from Teal'c.
"Thank you Sam, Teal'c, but please don't buy me any toys or stuffed animals and don't buy me cloths with action- or superheroes on them, just simple cloths with plan colours with no prints or pictures on them please!!"
"Sam can I talk to you a minute," Dr. Fraiser asked.
They went to Fraiser's office.
"Sam I want you to buy Daniel some toys I know that he is against it, but he has to sooner or later accept that he is a child now and I think it is good for him if he let himself loos and be a kid and have fun playing like other children."
"Good luck with that Janet you are going to need it. I will buy some toys if you tell Daniel that you ordered it."
"I will and I have made a list of things Daniel is going to need."
Janet gave Sam the list and Teal'c and Sam went to the mal.
Jack and Daniel played chess together, after they played for about 30 minutes Jack could see that Daniel was tired.
"Danny let us take a break so you can get some sleep you look tired," Jack said.
"I'm not tired Jack I don't need a nap."
"You can't fool me Danny."
Jack took the chess board aside and lay Daniel down and tucked him in his blanket, he protested and said that he isn't a baby who needs to be tucked in, but as soon as his head was on the pillow he went to sleep. Dr. Fraiser witnessed it all.
"Thank you colonel to get Daniel to sleep, he needs it now more then ever and he needs an adult who can help him to cover his needs, like you just did to get him to take a nap even that he didn't want to."
"You a right Doc he needs someone to take care of him as long as he is a kid and I want to be that someone and I'm going to tell it to the general now while Danny is sleeping."
"I'm glad to hear that colonel and I will keep an eye on Daniel while you are gone."
General Hammond approved that Jack got guardianship of Daniel while he is downsized. Daniel was still sleeping when Jack returned to his bedside and when Teal'c and Sam went back from shopping.
"So what did you all buy for Danny?" Jack asked.
"Well…. all different clothes that children needs, but without prints and pictures on them, some shoes, a stuffed camel, lego, cars…"
"Wait a minute you bought a stuffed camel and toys!!!! I thought I heard Danny tell you not to buy any of that," Jack said.
"Yes he did, but it was Doctors orders, she gave us a list and highlighted the list of toys," Sam said.
"I don't want to be there when you show him the toys," Jack said.
"We will let Dr. Fraiser do that it was her orders," Teal'c said.
"Where did you put all the things you bought?"
"In a WIP room, sir, till Daniel is relished from the infirmary. Where is he going to live, in a WIP room sir?"
"No Cater I have talked to general Hammond about it and we think it's for the best that he is coming home with me and that I will be his guardian as long as he is downsized," Jack said.
"That's good sir, but I'm afraid that he won't be happy about it because he is a very independent person and he likes to take care of himself," Sam said.
"Yeah I know Cater, but as long as he is a kid he can't live by himself and he needs someone to take care of him," Jack said.
"I agree with you sir I hope he can see that to."
Few minutes later Daniel woke up.
"Good afternoon sleepy head and you said you weren't tired and you slept for 2 hours," Jack said.
"Hi Jack have you heard from our allies?"
"No sorry Danny we haven't," Jack Said.
Just as he said that Jacob Cater and general Hammond came in.
"Dad!!! Do you know how to help Daniel?"
"Hey Sammie. I will come to that later. Hey Daniel how are you?"
"Thanks Jacob I would feel a lot better if you can help me get big again….can you???"
"I don't know Daniel. The only idea I have is to try with the healing device."
"Okay let's try that Jacob," Daniel said.
"Wait a minute Danny. Let's ask the Doc first. Jacob are you sure it can turn him to an adult again and is it save for him?" Jack asked.
"No I'm not sure Jack, but it's worth to try and there is no risk for Daniel."
Dr. Fraiser aloud Jacob to try the healing device, but nothing happened and they all were disappointed especially Daniel. Jacob went back to the tok'ra and promised that if they found out a way to turn Daniel back they would be back to help.
The next 3 days Daniel was poked and prodded. Dr. Fraiser, a paediatrician and child- and adult psychologist agreed that Daniel has to accept that he is a child now and that he needs to play with toys and that he need someone to take care of him. They know that he has all his adults memories, they wish that he didn't remember his adult time, because it's in the way for Daniel to accept that he is a child now and let himself loose and be a child and play like other children. They also agreed that he shouldn't be aloud to work not on till he is older and they told that at the briefing with general Hammond and the rest of sg-1 accept for Daniel.
Hammond and rest of sg-1 wasn't happy of hearing that they think that he shouldn't be aloud to work and they know how Daniel will react to that when he get the news.
4 days after Daniels downsizing Thor showed up, but he couldn't help him either. He promised Daniel that he will try to find someone that can help. In those 4 days Daniel was in the infirmary Jack, Sam and Teal'c took there turn to be with Daniel so he wouldn't be alone. The next day Dr. Fraiser relished him from the infirmary.
"Finally I can leave the infirmary and I can't wait to get to my office and then going home and sleep in my own bed."
"No Daniel not your office, colonel O'Neill and general Hammond are waiting for you in the generals office, they have some things they need to talk to you about. Sam would you mind going with Daniel to Hammonds office?"
"Of course, come on Daniel."
"Janet, Sam I can go by myself I do remember where his office is."
"Humour me Daniel. Sam go with him and make sure he goes directly to the general's office and not to his own."
They went to general Hammonds office.
"Sam are you going inside to?"
"No Daniel the meeting is only with the general, the colonel and you."
Hammond's office:
"General Hammond I think it's best that we tell Daniel one thing at a time. I think the first thing we should tell Daniel is that he is going to live with me and that I'm his guardian now and wait to tell him that he isn't aloud to work here again before he is older."
"I agree with you colonel."
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in doc….Daniel," general Hammond said.
"Take a seat Daniel" "Daniel I know You won't like what the Colonel and I are about to tell You, son."
Daniel didn't like to here that, are they about to tell him that they will skip him to foster care, I can't go through that again, no they can't physically I'm in a 5 year old body, but mentally I am 35.
"Just tell me."
Hammond has a hard time to explain to Daniel that he can't go home and live by himself, he knows how hard he had with his first childhood. He looked at colonel O'Neill and let him tell Daniel.
O'Neill wasn't happy about that either.
"Danny the thing is.."
"Jack don't call me Danny, I maybe look like a kid now, but I'm an adult in a Childs body!!"
"Okay Daniel then, but you not being a child now, the doctors and I don't agree with you, you are in denial, face it kid, you are a Kid Now!!"
Daniel is very hurt by that comment, since when does Jack agree with the doctors, he must know that I know best.
"No Jack I'm not in denial, I know that I'm in a 5 year old body, but mentally I am 35 and no one can convince me that I'm mentally 5, because I'm not!!!!!!!"
"Let's have that discussion another time, now we have to discuss your living arrangement out of the SGC," Hammond said.
Daniel face turned pale "I'm going to live in my apartment of course."
"Danny that's not going to happen as long You are a child, You can't live by Yourself somebody has to take care of You!!"
"How many times do I have to tell You my name is Daniel, I'm not a child and I can take care of myself," now Daniel was very angry.
"Son, the colonel is right You can't live by yourself, people who finds out will call social workers and they will take you to foster care," Hammond said.
"What about I find another apartment somewhere, where nobody knows me and tell people that I have a genetic disorder that makes me look like a child like that actor who first played Karate kid."
"No way are we letting you live by yourself, so face it kid that will be to dangerous for you" Jack said.
"Adults who doesn't grow very tall some as high as a 5 year old or smaller lives by themselves and so can I!!!"
"You are right they can live by themselves and that's because they are adults, but you are a child now so face it!!" I'm not letting Danny in danger I don't want to loose Danny like I lost Charlie Jack thought.
"Please Jack you are my best friend you have to trust me it's my body and soul I know best and I know I can live by myself and I don't want to go from foster home to foster home again."
"I do trust You it's the NID and strangers I don't trust and for now you are not an adult and we will decide what's best for you I'm sorry but it's for your own good."
"Son the colonel is right."
"NO!! he is not right….. and where do you think I shall live?"
"At my place with me." Jack said.
"You? You are my best friend not my foster father and I don't need foster parents or a guardian I have had enough of that for a lifetime!! I am going to live on my own whether You like it or not!!" Daniel ran out of Hammonds office
"Daniel come back we are not finished!!!!"
"Colonel let him, he has a lot to digest."
"No way I'm letting him live by himself."
"Neither am I colonel"
Daniel's office:
I won't go through that again, Jack will get tired of me and send me away like all the foster parents I had, I have to do something but what? I have to proof that I can live by myself, so I have to runaway.
Daniel packed his bag pack with his wallet, computer and other important things but the bag is to heavy for a 5 year old body, so he has to take some things out. Daniel knows the SGC in and out so he has no problem to escape from the SGC.
1 hour later in the commissary. "Teal'c, mayor Carter have you two seen Danny lately? I can't find him."
"No sir I haven't."
"I have not seen DaneilJackson since he was relished from the infirmary"
"I last saw Danny in Hammonds office where we told him that he can't live in his apartment as long as he is a child and he wasn't a happy camper about that. I am starting to get worried it's to dangerous for a child to wonder around the SGC alone."
"With all do respect sir Daniel has all of his adult memories he knows the SGC in and out."
"Mayor I know he has all his adult memories and that's one of the risen he has a hard time to accept that he is a child again and to allow himself to be a child. And I still think it's to dangerous for him to wonder around the SGC alone will you 2 help me look for him?"
O'Neill called Hammond and told him that Danny is missing. Hammond started a search party,
O'Neill, Carter, Teal'c, Hammond and rest of SGC personnel looked every where for Daniel with no luck.
10 hours later in the briefing room.
"I do not believe that DaneilJackson is still at the SGC."
"I think you are right Teal'c Elvis Presley has left the building." Jack said.
"What has DaneilJackson leaving the SGC to do with Elvis Presley O'Neill?"
"Nothing Teal'c just forget what I said we have to find Danny."
"Sir do you think that NID has kidnapped Daniel?"
"No Mayor I think Danny is officially a runaway and he is so grounded when we find him!!" Jack said.
"I think You are right colonel after what happened in my office 11 hours ago I don't think that NID has anything to do with Daniel's missing."
"General we have to find him no matter what Danny thinks, he can't live by himself it's a snaekpit out there for a 5 year old."
"We will colonel he can't be faraway someone will stop him no adult who sees a 5 year old will let him wonder off alone without calling the police."
"I hope you are right general."
"But sirs Daniel is clever don't you think that he can talk them in to believing him why he is alone?"
"I think Carter is right DaneilJackson is very clever I think he can convince people what he wants them to."
"I don't because he hasn't convincest me that he isn't a child and that he can live by himself," Jack said.
"Let's get started to search fore him outside the SGC with out NID nothesing," General Hammond said.
In Colorado Springs:
Yes!!!! I maid it to this town, with out no one stopping me, the young man I hitchhiked with believed me that I have a genetic disorder that makes me look like a kid. Now I have to get some cash. It's frustrating that I can't go to my apartment because it's the first place they will look for me outside the complex. I have to change my appearance, I think I will dye my hair black.
Daniel noticing a man that is about as high as he is now in his 5 year old body.
"excuse me sir, can I talk to you for a minute?"
"Yes sure you can kid are you lost can't you find your parents?"
"No sir I'm not lost and I'm not a kid I'm an adult just like you. I know it's hard to believe because I look like a kid, but I have a rare genetic disorder that makes me look that way please believe me."
The man didn't believe Daniel at first, but when Daniel talked about things only adult is interesting in then he started to believe him. Daniel also told him that some people are after him because they don't believe that he can take care of himself and that they only see him as a child and not as an adult.
The man bought some things for Daniel and invited him to his place so Daniel could dye his hair there and get brown contact lenses on and a friend of him rented a motel room for him.
Later Daniel went to a solarium, so that he got brown skin. He decided to eat more so that he could gain some few pounds, so that he wouldn't be so skinny.
Few days later Daniel called general Hammond.
"Daniel where are you? I will get the colonel to pick you up."
"I just called to tell you that I'm fine and I won't tell you where I am and don't try to trace the call, because I made sure you can't trace it. Tell Jack and the others I said hi."
"Son please come back, it's to dangerous for you out there alone."
"No I'm not coming back."
Jack came in Hammonds office and he knew that the general was talking to Daniel on the phone. General Hammond gave Jack the phone.
"Daniel take your sorry ass back here!!!"
"Hello to you to Jack. I'm not coming back ever, have a good life Jack."
"Danny please tell me where you are."
"Sorry Jack. Good bye I will keep in touch, like I said to Hammond it is waist of time to try to trace the call," he hung up.
They tried to trace the call and Daniel was right they couldn't trace it. They were all worried about Daniel, they have some SF to keep an eye on his apartment, if he tries to go there.
In Colorado Springs Daniel was running and ran into a man.
"Sorry mister I didn't see you," when he looked at the mans face he took a few steps back, when he saw it was Jack and that Sam and Teal'c was with him. He was afraid that they would recognise him.
"It's ok kid, no harm done," Jack said.
"What's your name?" Sam asked
"Garret Michaels ma'am, what's yours?"
"Ma'am? what a polite boy you are kid, my name is Jack O'Neill I'm a colonel of US Air Force" Jack said.
"And my name is Samantha Cater and I'm a mayor also in the Air Force."
"My name is T Murray and I am not in the military."
"How old are you and where is your parents? you shouldn't be here without adult supervision." Jack said.
"I'm 5 and I was on my way to my parents."
"Okay have you seen a boy? He is about your age, his name is Daniel Jackson junior, he has blond hair, about your height, very skinny and pale," Jack asked him.
"No sorry mister I haven't. Did you loose him?"
"He ran away, we had an argument and we want him back," Jack said.
"I hope you find him" not Daniel finished the sentence in his mind.
"Thank you kid, go to your parents now, they must be worried about you," Jack said.
"Okay goodbye," Daniel ran around the building and leaned against the wall.
Yes!!! They didn't recognise me, I was worried that they would. So my disguise is working, Daniel thought.
At Hammonds office:
"I can't believe that today is 6 months ago that Danny ran away," Jack said.
"sir I have the feeling that he is right under our nose, but we are blinded some how," Cater said.
"Yeah Daniel is good in hiding, maybe you are right Cater that he is right under our nose, maybe that kid we have seen and talked to a few times in Colorado Springs is Daniel," Jack said.
"Then let us find him are you sure that it could be Daniel, sir?" Sam asked.
"No Cater it's not Danny, I meant it ironically, if he was him we would have find that out in a second after we the first time talked to him and besides he has brown eyes not blue, he got black hair and dark skin and he is not very thin like Danny, only his age and height they have in common," Jack said.
"I think O'Neill is right about the boy Garret Michaels and I think he is a normal boy. He is not behaving like as intelligent like DanielJackson. One time we met him some couple asked him something in Spanish and Garret Michaels didn't understand them. I believe if that have been DanielJackson he couldn't walked away from them with out answering them in there language Spanish," Teal'c said.
"So you are positively sure that he isn't Daniel or shall we check that kid out, colonel?" general Hammond asked.
"I'm positively sure sir and I think that it is waist of time to check that kid out, I don't believe that Danny could have fooled us for 6 month," Jack said.
"I'm afraid if we don't find him soon we never will," Cater said with tears in her eyes.
"We have to find him. Let us tell him that we have found a way to make him big again the next time he contacts us," Jack said.
"Sir, that would be cruel," Cater said.
"Mayor Cater is right colonel, we must find another way of getting our boy back," general Hammond said.
"And I don't want to fool DanielJackson like that," Teal'c said.
"Okay it was just an idea."
When Daniel was on his way to the store he was grabbed by a creepy man.
"LET GO OF ME!!!!!"
"Come on kid let us get some fun!!"
"NO WAY!!!! MY MOM AND DAD DON'T WANT ME TO PLAY OR GO WITH STRANGERS. SO LET ME GO YOU PEVERT!!!!!"
"No kid you are coming with me," the creepy man said, when he was grabbing the kicking child.
"HELP SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!!!"
"Teal'c, Sam did you hear something too?"
"Yes sir, it sounds like a child screaming for help," Sam answered.
"So do I," Teal'c said.
They all ran to the screaming child. They saw a man grabbing the boy Garret Michaels and heard him tell the kid that he won't let him go before they have had some fun and they heard the kicking boy screaming for help. Teal'c was the first one to be there to help the boy and told the man to let go of the boy and warned him if he didn't, but he wouldn't let go of him. Teal'c grabbed the man and relished him from the boy, Sam helped him and Jack went to the boy, he kneeled down so he was face to face with the kid.
"Hey kid, are you okay? Did he hurt you?"
"No colonel O'Neill he didn't hurt me, you just came at the right time, if you haven't been here I don't know what would have happened to me and I don't think it would have been something nice."
"That's good I'm glad that we heard you and that we got here at the right time before something terrible happened to you. I think that I have to talk to your parents and give them some peace of my mind for letting you be running around alone at your age in this town without adult supervision, look what just happened, proofs that it's to dangerous for you to go alone in this town."
"No you can't!!! and besides they are at work and I was just on my way to the store. Thank you for helping me, but now I have to go."
"No kid you are going with us to the police station, so we can press charges at the man who insulted you and then the police can give your parents a warning not to let you be on your own while they are working….Cater did you call the police?"
"Yes I did colonel O'Neill. They are on there way."
Daniel tried to walk away but Jack grabbed him.
"I don't want to go with you or to the police station. Let me go!!!"
"That's not going to happen it would be irresponsible of us to let you be all by yourself after what almost happened to you."
"Let me go Jack," Daniel said forgetting to alter his voice when he said that.
"Daniel?…Danny is that you?"
"No…no….my name is Garret not Daniel. Let me go."
"Daniel it is you!!!, you forgot to alter your voice!!! So Cater was right you where right under our nose and awhile ago I said that maybe the boy Garret Michaels is Daniel but I just meant it ironically. I didn't know how right I was. You are going back to the base and you are so grounded Daniel!!!!"
"No Jack I'm not going back. I like to be independent and living alone and I can take care of myself I have done that in this sizes of a 5 year old for 6 month now, with no problems accept from this incident. So let me go."
"So I was right, how could you fool us like that? And no I'm not letting you go or let you out of my sight again," Jack said.
"Daniel?" came from Sam.
Daniel kicked at Jack's bad knee and Jack relished Daniel from his grip and Daniel ran.
"Daniel come back!!!!" Sam and Jack yelled, but Daniel just ran and they ran after him while Teal'c kept hold on the creepy man that insulted Daniel. Daniel ran out on the street and he didn't see the car that was coming and he got run over by that car.
"Daniel!!! Get away from the street" Jack and Sam said in unison and just as they said that Daniel got hit by a car.
"Daniel!!!! no!!!!"
Sam and Jack went to Daniel's side.
"Daniel please be okay!!! We just got you back please don't leave us," Jack said.
"He got a pulse colonel but it's very weak," Sam said. Jack took his cell phone called and ambulance.
Few minutes later an ambulance came.
"Do one of you no what the boys name is?" a paramedic asked.
"His name is Daniel Jackson junior," Sam said.
A paramedic checked his pupils with a light pen.
"What is that? Is that a contact lens?" the paramedic asked when he took them off "…. Hey his real eye colour is blue ….Who lets a boy at that age wear contact lenses??"
"I want to go with him," Jack said.
"Are you his relative," the paramedic asked.
"No but I'm his guardian, I'm colonel Jack O'Neill and I want you to get him to the Air Force Academy hospital," he showed them his ID and some papers that proofs that he is legally Daniels guardian.
"How can you let him wear contact lenses at his age, is it because you want him to have brown eyes like you?" the paramedic asked.
"I didn't and I don't have anything against blue eyes!!! He is a runaway and we just found him!!"
Jack answered angrily.
Jack went, with Daniel in the ambulance, to the hospital. Sam called general Hammond and told him what happened and then she went back to Teal'c and told him what happened to Daniel and they stayed with the perpetrator on till the police came. They told the police what happened and that the kid, the man tried to hurt, had an accident and that he is brought to the hospital.
