The call for medical personnel in the Gate Room comes over the intercom just as she's walking out the Infirmary door to head home. At the unknown voice calling for help over the sound of the Stargate's wormhole engaging, Janet Fraiser takes off down the long hallway without conscious thought. No one's scheduled back for another 24 hours and she knows that she couldn't leave now, not without knowing what's going on. She can hear the sounds of her medical team behind her but she doesn't stop to look, focusing on making it to the Gate Room as quickly as possible and knowing that her team knows what to bring. They're a well-trained unit and are ready for anything.

Janet makes it to her destination just in time to see Teal'c emerge from the event horizon of the Stargate, followed closely by three small children and the sight startles her. The children are wearing child-size combat uniforms and each is carrying a P90, which is threatening enough to bring Janet to a halt. The children look around and the tallest of the three, a little boy with brown hair who looks to be seven or eight, steps closer to Teal'c at the sight of the SFs with their guns drawn.

"Hold your fire!"

General Hammond comes through the door as the SFs lower their weapons and an airman leaps into action at his words. Approaching Teal'c and the children, he holds his hands out.

"Can I have that?" he asks the tallest boy and motions to the gun he's boy hands it over without a word and the airman takes the weapon from him. Passing it off to the waiting SF, he moves to the other two children and repeats the process. When the children are disarmed, Janet steps forward to assess their injuries. The youngest, a little boy of four or five, plops himself down on the ramp and stares up at her with blue eyes full of tears.

"Hi there, buddy," Janet says softly, smiling as she reaches out and touches his shoulder. Next to him, the third child - a little girl of six, with blonde ringlets and bright blue eyes - sits on the ramp and stares at Janet too. The doctor does a double-take when she looks over at the girl and her heart leaps into her throat. Pulling back to look at all three children, she stares in shock as her mind races. Turning back to the girl, she reaches out and touches the child's cheek.

"Oh my god," she whispers. "Sam?"

"That is correct, Doctor Fraiser." Janet's head snaps up to look at Teal'c, who's standing next to the oldest boy. "There was an incident on P4X-294."

"What the hell happened out there?" Hammond says, the shock playing over his face. A quiet giggle sounds from next to Janet and everyone looks down at the young Daniel. He's got his hands over his mouth and he's giggling as he shakes his head.

"That's a bad word!" he exclaims from behind his hands. "You can't say that!"

"Shhh!" Sam exclaims, her eyes wide as she stares at Daniel. "He's a grownup!"

"It's okay," Janet soothes, smiling as she reaches out and touches Sam's shoulder. "Daniel's right; General Hammond shouldn't have said a bad word in front of you." Looking back up at the general, Janet smiles. "General, perhaps you could refrain from swearing in front of the children?"

Hammond looks disgruntled but nods. Satisfied for the moment, Janet motions for her medical team to come to her side. A nurse takes Daniel by the hand and leads him toward the door, followed by another nurse leading Jack. Janet holds her hand out to Sam and smiles when the little girl grasps her hand obediently, and the two set off with Teal'c and General Hammond following.

Sam, Jack, and Daniel are sitting on one bed in the Infirmary, their eyes wide as they swing their legs and look around. Teal'c is telling Hammond what exactly happened and Janet is listening, though her attention is split between the Jaffa's explanation and the test results in her hands. She looks up at something Teal'c says and frowns.

"Daniel pressed a button? That's what did this?" she says, trying to be shocked but failing miserably. Daniel's got a rather bad habit of pressing buttons.

"Correct. Daniel Jackson found a button on the wall of the temple and pressed it, which caused a flash of light that rendered us unconscious. When I awoke, the others were on the ground. They were already small." Teal'c's eyebrow has climbed dangerously high by the time he's done recounting the events. Janet sighs as she looks over at the children on the bed.

"They can't stay here, General. The Infirmary's not suited for a child on a good day," she says and Hammond nods.

"Agreed. I'll have quarters set up for-"

"That is unwise, General Hammond."

Hammond looks over at Teal'c in surprise. "Excuse me?"

Teal'c nods in the direction of the children as he says, "They can stay in my quarters. They have expressed discomfort at being separated from me."

Janet leaves the men to discuss the situation and moves to the bedside, smiling at the children as she approaches. Daniel smiles shyly and buries his head in Sam's shoulder but Jack lifts his chin and stares at her.

"Are you a doctor?" he asks. When Janet nods, he makes a face. "I don't like doctors. All they ever do is poke people with needles."

Sam and Daniel giggle when Janet laughs and says, "That's only true if you did something bad enough to deserve the big needles." Jack crosses his arms as he huffs and Janet finds herself thinking of him as adorable. Don't let him hear you say that, she thinks with a smile. He might remember when the regression is reversed and I highly doubt he'd appreciate the sentiment.

"Can I stay with you?" Sam asks, glancing over at Teal'c looking up at Janet. "I don't wanna stay with him."

"I think that can be arranged." Janet turns to Hammond, who nods at the little girl's request.

"Are they medically cleared to leave for the night, Doctor Fraiser?"

"Yes sir. They're in perfect health and pose no risk to themselves or others," Janet answers, fighting a smile when she feels Sam slid her hand into the doctor's. Janet gives the small hand a gentle squeeze and smiles faintly.
