Okay first off this is not my story, this belongs to a friend of mine and she asked me to put it up here (she's too shy to do it herself).
She doesn't own SG-1 or any of it's characters and neither do I. We just happen to write fanfiction about the shows we love.
Rated PG-13 for…you know I'm not really sure, she says just in case so I'll go with that.
Enjoy her fic, did I happen to mention that this is her first fic? No? Well be kind!

"Colonel, wait up" Sam shouted as she approached him on her way back to her lab.
"What can I do for you Major" he asked
"Nothing Sir, I just wanted to see how you were, I mean with this been your last day on duty" she said trying to avoid the subject that she had just brought to attention.
"You know Carter you can say the word….I promise not to court-martial you for it" Jack said
"Say what Sir" Sam asked
"Retire" Jack said a little sarcastically
"Oh that" she replied
"And to answer that question, I'm looking forward to it, no more saving the world on a daily basis, just me, some very large open spaces and maybe, just maybe a little lake with some fish in it" he said
"So you're really going then Sir" she replied a little disappointed
"Yes Carter I'm leaving in tomorrow its goodbye U.S.A hello England, why...you're not going to miss me are you Sam?" he asked noticing the look of disappointment on her face.
"No Sir, its just this place won't be the same anymore. I mean with you retiring, Daniel..." at this point Jack interrupted her.
"Things change Major" he replied
"Have you seen Jonas around anywhere I haven't seen him around since he brought back those ancient texts that Thor gave him to read on our last mission" he asked
"He's in the lab Sir" she replied
"Still with the books?" he asked
"Yes Sir" she replied
"You know you two really should get out more its not healthy being stuck indoors all day" he said as Sam continued back to her lab and he turned to follow her.
They entered the lab to find Jonas a sleep at the desk he had been working from.
"How long has he been reading this stuff for Carter" Jack asked
"Don't know Sir, he came in here about six hours ago" she replied
"For crying out loud doesn't he ever sleep, like the rest of us?" Jack said
Instructing Sam not to make a sound Jack slowly approached the desk where Jonas sat bending over slightly to whisper
"Wakey, wakey rise and shine Jonas" his voice raising slightly with each word until he was almost shouting.
"Colonel" Jonas said sleepily
"Are we required on a mission?" he asked
"Take it easy Jonas we're not due to go off world for the next forty eight hours" Sam replied.
"Yeah I was just wondering where you had been hiding since our little visit to see the Asgard Carter said that you...." Jack was stopped from finishing his sentence by an outburst of excitement at his mention of the Asgard.
"What...What did I do?" Jack replied puzzled by Jonas' reaction
Jonas rummaged around the desk with all the books he had been using over the past few hours, finally stopping when he found what he wanted
"That's it" he said
"What is it?" Jack asked still puzzle by what he said that could have got him so excited
"Sorry Colonel, it's just those ancient texts that the Asgard gave us to try and make sense of" he replied.
"What about them?" Sam asked
"I've managed to translate one of them" he replied
"I take it that's a good thing then?" Jack asked
"Well it depends which way you look at it Colonel" Jonas replied
"What's it say Jonas?" Sam asked
"Well as far as I understand it it's a reference to a turn of events in about two hundred and fifty years from now that not only concerns the Asgard but every planet affected by demon like creatures who are worshiped like gods" Jonas said
"OK I'm guessing the Goa'uld on that one" Jack said
"Anyway the text makes a reference to some things that happen for this to take place" Jonas continued.
"Which are?" Sam asked
"The text makes reference to two warriors not from the Asgard home world, they have a child, that child will bring about the fall in power the 'demon' creatures have, but this will come at a price, a death."
"That's it?" Jack asked
"There is information on what the first sign of this changing event is but that's it Colonel yes" Jonas replied
"Good" Jack replied
"Why Colonel?" Sam asked
"No reason except did I mention I had a headache, Jonas there is going to go get some sleep now before I make it an order and well you Carter...."
"I've got work to do here Sir" Sam replied
"Of course you do" Jack replied in his usual sarcastic tone
"OK Jonas sleep now no arguments, Sam have fun as I know you always do, you will tear yourself away to come to the little retirement party Teal'c planned for me right?" Jack asked as he was about to leave the room with Jonas just in front of him.
"Sure Sir" Sam replied
"And Carter" Jack said
"Sir" Sam replied
"Loose the Sir, in less than three hours I'm not your CO anymore" he replied
"Yes Sir" Sam replied with a small but visible grin on her face
"Its Jack" he replied
"What is?" Sam replied starting to relax in the company of her Commanding Officer for the first time in a very long time she noticed as the pair spent more time talking that he was finally letting the old Jack, the one that she had come to know over the past few years back to the surface a little which he'd buried inside him somewhere ever since what happened to Daniel.
"My name, Jack that's my name'' he replied
"Oh OK Sir" she replied playfully
"Go on, just say it once that's all" Jack said
"Say what Sir?" Sam replied
Jack gave her the look that said he wasn't going anywhere till she gave in and said what he wanted her to so she played along with the conversation a little more.
"Oh you mean Jack" she replied
This was met by Jack looking up at the ceiling, clenching his fists and letting out a
"Yes, Thank You" which was met by a very large smile from Sam.
"About nine o'clock, my place then" Jack continued
"OK its a date Jack" Sam said still in the mood to play on the atmosphere in the room between them some more.
"Really?" Jack said picking up on this a little
"Right I'll leave you to do what ever you need to do, see ya later Sam and while your coming to the party tonight see if your Dad wants to come, it will be nice for you two to catch up a little" Jack said
"He's still on that mission the Tok'ra sent him on a month ago, he knows about tonight already if he's back into time he said he'll drop by sometime" Sam replied
"Ah OK good" Jack replied
"I'm going to check in on Teal'c now, so don't work to hard Major and I'll see you tonight if not before" Jack said before exciting the lab.
