Chapter 1

She walked for the third time near by that closed door. And she simply felt ri-di-cu-lous.

She, Lieutenant-Colonel Samantha Carter, could not simply fear to talk to her superior officer! She was still thinking when the door opened, and he appeared.

"Carter?" He asked, visibly surprised to find someone behind his office's door.

"General! Good morning." "Good morning. No, that's seriously silly!" She thought.

"To what do I owe the pleasure of your visit in my humble office?" He asked, jokingly.

However, he was surprised to not see her smile. No, in fact she actually seemed to be… anxious.

"I need to talk to you, Sir."

There. It was said.

"Come in." He said, moving away to let her in.

She rushed into the way, and stood in front of one of the chairs.

"Sit down. What happened?" Then asked then General Jack O'Neill. "Nothing worrying I hope?"

"Well… She began. It's pretty… I have a request witch is completely stupid, but that will certainly relieve my daily life."

She had said it in one go, so he looked at her incredulously. He gave her a nod to encourage her to continue.

"Well, it's been a month since Pete is been nagging me to participate in one of our off-world mission. To see "what I do". She mimicked. I explained to him like a hundred times that it was impossible, out of the question, unthinkable. But he's stubborn. So I promised him to come talk to you about this. After your refusal he will leave me alone."

She bowed her head, not daring to meet his look. Jack didn't know what to think. He had imagined many things, but this wasn't one of them.

"Why not!" He said.

"Thank you Si… I beg your pardon?!" She exclaimed, raising her head.

"Why not. You have a very calm mission this week, visiting ruins should please Peter, who should thank you for fulfilling his request. Also, I really want to come too! I miss passing through the Stargate."

"All right Sir."

Sam seemed to be totally lost. She certainly didn't expect an answer like that. And have Pete with her on a mission didn't please her either.

When she came back home at evening, she saw Pete who was waiting at the door.

"Good evening darling! Did you have a good day? Did you managed to see General O'Neill?" He asked, smilingly before planting a kiss on her lips.

"Good evening… Yes I saw him. You will accompany us on Thursday. But I warn you, the General is coming too. And you will be under the command of all of us. Daniel included." She replied.

"Yes! Ah I'm so happy! You see that it was worth going to ask him!"

Pete was like a child on Christmas Day, unlike Samantha who had trouble imagining her companion on a mission with her team. To thank her, Pete prepared the meal and decided to satisfy her this night. Sam allowed herself to be carrier along, a little disappointed by the decision of her superior officer.
