Daniel ran the last few strides, he was late to the briefing again, it was just that he was rechecking the details, and then realised the time but had to cross check a couple of important details, meaning he was late, Jack was going to kill him
"Sorry I'm late"
"Danny, Danny, Danny, when are you ever going to turn up on time, me and Carter have even started betting on how late you will be" Jack chided
"Sir you owe me 2 nights out, a movie and a…." she was interrupted
"Wow, you two are really immature" he glared at them
"Sg1" General Hammond entered the room Sam and Jack immediately stood to attention, Teal'c and Daniel just nodded respectively, it had taken time for them to work out what was appropriate
"At ease, ok folks what have you got on P98-876"
"Well Sir" Sam started
"The atmosphere and temperature are within normal bounds, the did show civilisation, they look quite advanced but no sign of Gould"
"Daniel"
"I was studying the architecture and language, it' written in English the architecture seems to be well very much America in the 70's and 80's which is really unusual"
"Ok Sg1 you have a go, just a meet and greet for now, be on the look out for any technology to help us, departure is at 1500"
"Yes sir"
They all left the briefing room anxious this was possibly the most similar to modern earth they had ever seen; hopefully they would have technology they would be willing to trade
Sam was first to the gate room, after checking the data; O'Neill was next followed closely by Teal'c
"5 minutes Carter,"
"What's in it for me?"
"Err, Hockey match"
"How about I pick the next team movie"
"Oh no, what do I get when I win"
"Cancel the you owe me" Sam suggested
"What's your bet?"
"About 2 minutes Sir"
They looked to the door waiting each checking their watches, impatient secretly confident they'd win
Daniel entered as Sam's time approached 1.58minutes
"Yes, I won again Sir"
"Carter how, you do it, you sure you and Daniel haven't ganged up on me" he asked suspiciously
"No Sir" Sam answered innocently
"Let me guess you two bet on me again didn't you" Daniel moaned
"Well yes but I won" Sam said gleefully
Hammonds amused voice came across as the gate finished dialling, and the blue vortex gushed out
"Sg1 you have a go"
They all nodded respectively as they headed up the ramp
Jack entered first everything looked normal, no hostiles, hearing Sam, Teal'c and Daniel come through he stood up
"Howdy folks, no hostiles so let's head out, Carter on point I got our 6"
Sam took point it was only a short walk away, 1.5 clicks
Daniel was excitedly talking to Teal'c who constantly replied indeed constantly whilst wishing he would shut up, but to polite to say anything
Jack walked behind listening to the conversation ahead glad that he wasn't the one receiving the lecture
Sam suddenly felt awarded something was wrong instinctively she dropped down and signalled for everyone to copy
Everyone dropped down straining to see or hear what Sam had
Not hearing anything, O'Neill raised an eyebrow, Sam shook she knew there was something, she could just feel it
The blue light came out of nowhere, encompassing him into unconsciousness, he didn't see the same blue light knock out Daniel, Teal'c or Sam
