Jack sat slouched in his chair bouncing a ball of the wall as Jacob Carter walked into his office.

"Jack"

"Jacob!" he cried in surprise as he missed catching the ball. Sitting up in his chair he continued, "I what'ya doing here? I thought you and Carter had something planned since the fate of the galaxy doesn't seem to be in our hands this week." Smiling at his own humour he watched as Jacob laughed, albeit slightly then become serious.

"Yeah well we're leaving in half an hour. I just wanted to talk to you first."

"Me?" he said confused. "what about?"

"I was wondering if you would be interested in a little covert mission I've got planned" said the older man pulling a folder from under his arm.

"Against the goa'uld ?" he asked curious and apprehensive.

Jacob smiled. "Not exactly."



Jacob proceeded for the next 20 minutes to discuss tactics, positions and ideas for people on the team as Jack's desk became swamped in a barrage of papers from the innocent looking folder.

"Hammond's up for this," added Jacob as he continued with his plan. £he said he'd take care of the base."

"Yeah ok. But you want me to lead? I mean it is your operation."

Jack looked at Jacob still quite in shock about he whole idea.

"Yeah well most of the work load will be spread evenly between us and we will collaborate forces here," he said pointing to one piece of paper, "but this" indicating to yet another piece of paper and handing it to Jack "is yours".

Jack recognised it instantly, he had done it before but never under so much pressure.

"Wow, you mean you want me to start the operation?"

"Yeah, you're the most skilled for the job."

"Cool, then sure Jake I'll do it." He said happily but hen he remembered. " but we've still only got half a team."

"Well I've thought about that and Daniel could be here and Teal'c here." He said indicating on yet another sheet of paper.

//Yup// thought Jack // this guy is really orgaised//

"And..." added Jack.

"And Sam is to have no part in this." said Jacob with a steely glint in his eye that most people wouldn't quarrel with. "She's not to know."

"Until the last possible moment of course."

"Yeah"

Jack choose one of the bits of paper that currently littered his desk, and read it carefully. This was dangerous. Very dangerous. Especially when he considered his team.

"Jake?" he asked quite worried.

"Yeah?"

There was a small pause as Jack gathered his thoughts. //it'll be ok I think. Jake wouldn't just put this right in front of me and expect me to ignore it. I bet you he wants to ask just so he can kick my ass." And so thought gathered he continued.

"This bit here"

"I thought you might ask about that." He replied with a hint of humour in his eyes.

//See I knew it//thought Jack.

"Uh huh, And..." apprehensive as ever Jack awaited the answer to his invisible question.

Somewhat grudgingly he answer with "OK, but I don't know how George is gonna take it ." "Yeah well this isn't exactly an official op is it?"

"No, but ..."

"Old Hammond is just going to have to deal with it. I'm sure he'll be ok with it."

"Uh huh," Jacob said flippantly, "well your death bed."

"Yeah I suppose." Added Jack solemnly.

"So," he said cheering up, "When are we going to do this?"

"In two weeks when I'm net back on earth."

"Two weeks!" Jack almost shouted "Jake do you think we'll be ready?"

"We have to be it's only opportunity we'll get."
