AUTHOR'S NOTES: To my friends.
Mirror, Mirror On The Wall...
A land of fairytales.
The sky was a brilliant blue, the sun shining brightly casting shadows on the deep green grass that covered the ground of the planet. The streams, their waters clear and unpolluted sparkled in the sunlight like crystal while the tall trees provided shade and protection for the many animals and inhabitants of the planet who were working in the fields harvesting food.
"It's a beautiful place." Samantha Carter thought looking around the planet at the large castle that loomed over the village that they were now in and the children playing in the grass. She still felt however that something wasn't quite right, as did the rest of SG1. That was something that they had made clear when they had first stepped onto the planet through the Stargate, a planet that seemed to be a fairytale world, one that was almost too good to be true.
They had been drawn to the planet by the minerals in the soil, many of which would be useful to the SGC and the military if the Goa'uld ever chose to invade earth, as they could be used in the production of weapons to be used against them, but as soon as they had arrived something had hit them, the notion that this was all too familiar though neither they nor their colleagues who had come through the gate to perform the mineral extraction could put a finger on it.
For a start though this planet was highly technological with the weapons, or some of them at least being more advanced than earths own, and with the inhabitants knowledge of science and math's being greater than even Samantha Carter's, the inhabitants tended to live in stone houses wearing clothes worn on earth many years ago, though their language was relatively modern. The planet was split into kingdoms, each kingdom having a castle like something out of a storybook with turrets and flags overlooking it, being the living quarters for the kings and queens who ruled each kingdom, one of whom had given the team and their colleagues permission to extract the proposed minerals from the soil, feeling much sympathy over earths plight against the Goa'uld species. All of these things struck those from the SGC as strange. The place seemed too good to be true, and none could determine why such a highly technological people were living the way they were.
"There's just something not right about this places guys...and girl." Colonel Jack O'Neill stated to his friends and colleagues Major Samantha Carter, Dr. Daniel Jackson and Teal'c, a former Jaffa. "It's like this place is something out of a storybook with magical castles...and whatever else tends to be included in fairytales. It's just too..."
"Good to be true, perfect, idyllic." Daniel Jackson offered.
"Exactly!" Jack O'Neill answered before stating "They do make good pie though." as he took a slice of pie from the dessert that some of the inhabitants had made for the team as a gesture of good will.
His team smiled.
"I do agree though, there is something strange here...out of place." Major Samantha Carter added to the conversation.
"I concur." Teal'c answered in his usual stoic manner. It seemed even the former Jaffa had sensed something out of the ordinary here.
Suddenly there was a noise from behind them coming from inside the forest, the clearing of which they were sitting in shading themselves from the hot afternoon sun. They turned around to see an old woman who had appeared from nowhere dressed in dark ragged clothes standing behind them. Her hair, thin grey and knotted hung limply around her shoulders, her face was worn and tired. She was carrying a basket in her thin bony hands.
"Would you like an apple dear?" she asked Samantha Carter, walking slowly towards her.
Carter looked at the old woman puzzled, then turned to her friends who looked just as puzzled as she did.
"Where did she come from?" O'Neill muttered under his breath.
"You are resting are you not? I wondered if you would like one of my apples. They are said to be some of the best in the kingdom." She told them.
"Here we go..."Jack O'Neill muttered under his breath sarcastically, thinking that this planet was not the only thing where there wasn't something quite right.
"That tongue will get you into trouble young man." the old woman said scornfully turning to face the Colonel. She stared at him with eyes that made him turn cold, then turned back to Carter.
"Here, a gift for a beautiful young woman." the old woman told the surprised Major handing her a shiny red apple. She then started to walk away.
"Hey I'd like an apple..." O'Neill shouted after her, but he trailed off realizing she had disappeared just as quickly as she had appeared to them.
"What was that?" Daniel asked relating to the prior strange occurrence.
"Who knows." Colonel Jack O'Neill muttered, before muttering under his breath "Are those dwarves marching through the forest?"
The team turned to where the Colonel was facing and sure enough there was a group of dwarves marching through the forest behind them, their faces dirty and their clothes torn from the strenuous work they had been doing.
"This is too weird." Daniel muttered to himself.
Suddenly there was the sound of crackling leaves beside them, the team turned around to see their colleague Samantha Carter lying on the ground unconscious and deathly pale.
"Sam?" Daniel Jackson shouted to his friend gently shaking her before feeling for a pulse. "Wait this can't be right, Jack I can barely feel anything it's like she's..."
"What do you mean you can barely feel anything, Daniel she was just talking to us!" the Colonel shouted getting up and running over to his stricken colleague.
"You think I don't know that." Daniel shouted worriedly to his friend who was now kneeling by the Major listening for her taking a breath.
"She's breathing...barely, damn it we've gotta get her back through the gate." he told his teammates lifting her gently into his arms.
"Maybe we should ask someone here about this, I mean maybe they'll know what's going on." Daniel Jackson shouted to the Colonel as he began rushing towards the Stargate.
"You know you may want to, but I'm not going to wait here for her to die while you're wandering around asking people questions." the Colonel snapped.
"Hey there's no need to bite my head off okay, she's my friend too and I want to see her well...It's just we don't know what caused this...maybe someone here will."
"So we'll ask them when she's stable." The Colonel told his friend as they reached the gate, their colleagues joining them wondering what had happened.
"Dial us home Teal'c." The Colonel ordered his friend before once again checking for a pulse while the wormhole was being established.
