Well. It is good to be back at This is just a little fic I'm doing to relax between classes. I have a vague idea of where it's going, but I doubt I'll ever finish it. Still, I think it's worth posting.
Standard disclaimer: None of the recognizable characters are mine. Even the original idea of having a female counterpart to Daniel was not my idea. However, the situation is mine. Please do not steal.

Dr. Jackson's Thursday morning report was interrupted by the harsh sound of klaxons going off.
"Oh, fercryinoutloud..." Colonel Jack O'Neill muttered as SG-1 – Dr. Daniel Jackson, Major Samantha Carter, the Jaffa Teal'c, and himself – and General George Hammond pounded down the stairs from the briefing room to the control room. Daniel stopped to take one last draught of his coffee before he left it by the projector.
"It's SG-1's IDC, General," Walter was saying when Daniel finally got down the stairs. Sam blinked, puzzled.
"We're all right here, sir," she said. Hammond frowned.
"Does anyone off-world have your code, Major?" he asked as the wormhole established. She shrugged, shaking her head.
"Not that I know of, sir."
Hammond grabbed the microphone. "Gate room defense team, stand by."
The iris opened, and two women in military BDUs broke through the shifting light of the event horizon. They immediately put their hands in the air, looking confused.
"General Hammond, what's going on!" the taller woman yelled in his direction. Daniel stared. There was something familiar about this...both the women and the situation.
"Identify yourself." Hammond says into the mic.
"Dr. Danielle Jackson, SG-1."
The shock registered on the faces of everyone in the room. But suddenly, for Daniel, it clicked.
"I know what's going on." He ran from the control room.
Now in the gate room, he stopped just at the bottom of the ramp and studied the woman in the military uniform. She had large, bright blue eyes, full lips and blondish brown hair. It was the eyes that gave her away – they were exactly like his own.
"Dr...Jackson," he said, feeling a little strange about this whole thing, "What planet did you Gate here from?"
"P3R-233. Who are you?" she said. Daniel smiled.
"That proves it. It's all right, General." He called that last to the control room.
"Stand down. Dr. Jackson, what is going on?" Hammond said.
"Why don't you tell me, General?" the woman replied. Hammond blinked.
"Of course." Sam whispered. "General, they said they came from P3R-233. That's where Daniel found the dimension mirror. They probably don't realize they've changed dimensions."
Hammond looked at her for a moment, then nodded. He left the control room, with Sam, Jack and Teal'c close behind.
Meanwhile, the two women were coming down the ramp, taking off their helmets as they went. Danielle shook out a mid-back length of light brown hair, pulling it back into a low ponytail. She regarded Daniel as she did so.
"Do I know you?" she asked. Daniel grinned.
"Sort of." Behind her, he caught a flash of dark hair as the other woman pulled off her helmet. His heart stopped.
"Sha're?"
Aaaaaaand voila! Instant reader consternation. I have a couple more chapters - albeit short ones – written. Just gotta type them and they'll be posted probably very soon. After that...we'll see.
Please review!
