Hello this is my first SG fic so be brutal, I really want to catch each character as they are supposed to be. I did notice that I didn't get Sam quite right and Jack is a little out of character but there is a good reason for it. Anyways this is a DanielOC fic. at least it's supposed to be. Let see how it turns out shall we.
Dis. I don't own SG at all, I do own Anna though.
Dr. Daniel Jackson walked through the halls of the SGC, his mind filled will translating the text in his hand.
"It shouldn't be this hard…I figured out the…it just doesn't…hmm…" He muttered to himself and rounded into his office and looked up only to double take a young women standing over his journals.
She wasn't military, as she didn't wear the fatigues. Her mid length brown hair curled around her face and almost made it seem that there was a halo around her oval face. She wore a white blouse and a blue knee length skirt, very business like.
"Excuse me?" She looked up and smiled, Daniel continued, "Can I help you with something?"
"You must be Dr. Jackson?" She walked away from his desk and extended her hand to him, "I'm Anna Anderson; the President recommended me to General O'Neil to assist you on translating some foreign text of some sort."
"Really?" He shook her hand lightly, "I wasn't aware of this so you must excuse me for being a little surprised."
"Oh!" She smiled and blushed a little, "Really, I'm sorry, I was just following orders."
Daniel nodded and walked past her, setting down his own work and glancing at what she had been looking at when she spoke up, "Your notes are brilliant." He looked up at her, "Excuse me?"
"I've never seen that language before, but following your notes I practically understood everything. It's a thesis isn't it?" She stepped toward him, "If I translated correctly, 'the world could function, more so with the help of…um, nadquin fuel?'"
"Wow you're the first to get it right, well for the most part, that is… You see there are some words that most of the world has never heard of in that sentence." Daniel had been impressed, "It actually reads 'the world could function more efficiently with the help of Nadqida generators.'"
"What's Nadqida?" She asked leaning her palms on his desk.
"Ah…well… it's a type of power source that the SGC found." He didn't know how much he could tell her.
"Oh fascinating, does it really supply a lot of power?" Daniel was about to answer when the alarm sounded.
"UNSCHUDULED OFF WORLD WORM HOLE ACTIVATION." The red lights blared as much as the siren did.
Daniel jumped up and noticed Ms. Anderson's startled look, "Uh there's nothing to worry about, have you meet with the General yet?"
"No, they said he was dealing with some sort of negotiations." She looked at him, "Are we in danger?"
"Um I'm afraid until you've met with the General I can't tell you anything, if you wait right here, I'll come back and try to fill you in." He raised a his hands and pointed out into the hall, "However I'm needed, I'll be back, try translating some more of my thesis, if you'll be working here you'll be dealing with that dialect a lot."
He briefly caught a nod from her as he ran down to the gate control room. He ascended the stairs, "What's up?"
"It's from the P34-G6." Walter told him.
Daniel leaned over his shoulder reading the screen, "That's where Jack and Sam are, right?"
"Yes they were there with SG-14 to negotiate terms of peace between our planet and the people there." Walter responded, "We have radio contact, its General O'Neil's code."
"Patch it threw please, Jack?" Daniel spoke clearly.
"Danny boy, could you open the gate please, these wonderful people really didn't like what we had to offer!" Staff blast and gun fire could be heard, "Oh for cryin' out loud!"
"Open the iris!" It was rare that Daniel had to take command, it felt good to have just a little power once an awhile.
The iris opened and Jack, Sam and Teal'c all walked through followed by SG-14, one man was being helped as he limped down the ramp.
Daniel quickly walked down to the gate room meeting Jack at the door, "What did you say?"
"Why is everything assumingly blamed on me for saying something?" O'Neil took off his sunglasses and let them hang around his neck.
"Well, considering your reputation when it comes to talking to people on different planets, you usually come off as harsh." Daniel smiled politely as Sam and Teal'c both silently agreed behind Jack.
"Thanks for that, just what I needed to hear when I'm running a whole operation that saves the world everyday. No pressure, right?" O'Neil rolled his eyes and walked past him to put away his gear.
Daniel followed them, "By the way Jack, your new translator is here. Anna Anderson?"
O'Neil straighten up, "She is? Really?"
"Yeah… I was wondering, why wasn't I told about this? Did I miss something?" Daniel leaned against the door frame.
"All in due time Daniel, I have to go greet her, where is she?" He stepped in front of Daniel. He almost seemed excited for this meeting.
"She's in my office I didn't know how much she knew, so I asked her to stay there." Daniel looked at him strangely.
"Uh-huh, that's great good job." And he was off down the hall.
"Okay, that wasn't like him." Daniel stated to the others.
Sam shrugged, "I don't know, maybe she's that good. We should go meet her too, after all we'll be working together I'm sure."
"Yeah…" Then he watched Sam causally walk down the hall after Jack.
"Daniel Jackson, do you feel threatened by this newcomer?" Teal'c snapped him back into reality.
"What? Oh, no not at all." Daniel shook his head.
"Then why is that you have a look of confusion on your face?" Teal'c stepped out and they both started for his office.
"Well 'cause I am confused Teal'c. I just want to know if I did something wrong, or if there was a new development. This was just a sudden surprise to me that's all." Daniel smiled and they walked around the corner to his office. Sounds of excitement could be heard from inside.
"I didn't realize that it was you?" They both walked in seeing Jack and Anna embracing one another.
"Yes, that's how I knew I could hire you right away. I knew that your credentials were explicitly true and to the t." Jack smiled at her, "Besides how many O'Neils do you know?"
"Well enough to get them confused with my favorite uncle!" She pulled away and punched him in the arm.
"Uncle?" Daniel stated without realizing that he had spoken aloud.
"Well not really, it's just a title were not actually blood related in anyway." O'Neil explained.
"That explains your enthusiastic sprint all the way here though." Sam interjected.
He looked at her and raised his head, "I did not sprint."
"That is correct O'Neil it was more of a skip." Teal'c gave a small smile.
"Aww you were excited to see me." Anna told him.
"Everyone, this is the new member of the SGC if she accepts after hearing everything, Anna Anderson." He smiled and started pointing, "Anna this is Teal'c, Major Samantha Carter, and Dr. Daniel Jackson, you'll be working with him and Carter mostly."
"It's splendid to meet you all." She smiled and gave a small bow of sorts.
"Now if you'll all excuse I have to bring her up to date to see if she actually wants to stay." O'Neil led her out Daniel's office.
"Well she seems nice." Sam smiled.
"Indeed she does." Teal'c added as they both left Daniel to his translations.
He stared at his work until her realized the open notebook next to it had several sticky notes on it.
It read:
Dr. Jackson, I notice that this symbol reoccurs several times through out what you were working on when we first met. I don't understand any of it, but I was wondering if they were ending markings, like periods to end sentences? I'm sure you've already figured it out by now, but I was just curious.
A.A.
"Ending markings, why didn't I think of that?" He shook his head and began the translation again.
Ah well that wasn't so bad, now I know Anna wasn't in there much but I would like to be informed if she starts becoming very Mary Sue, I really try to stay away from that but sometimes it just happens and those are the stories I don't post. Anywho thanks for reading and PLEASE R&R. Thanks again!
