Stargate SG-1 "Old Friends"
Since Atlantis touched down back on earth; things around the SGC had changed quite a bit. All the science personal had been moved to the city of the ancients while all the SG teams functioned out of the SGC to prevent any kid of alien incursion into Earth's biggest defense platform. One of the biggest changes was that a key member of SG-1 was given command of her own ship; Col. Samantha Carter was giving command of the new Daedalus class ship, the General Hammond. The ship was still under going its shakedown cruise and she still had the luxury of popping back into the SGC from time to time. Colonel Mitchell still wasn't happy about losing Col. Carter to the assignment but knew that she was long overdue for the promotion. He sat in the mess hall eating lunch and reviewing files for replacements.
"Walter why do you keep giving me files for lieutenants, don't we have anyone who has some front line experience as well as experience with the stargate?" he asked.
"Sorry Colonel, I'll try to find some more qualified canidates but with new SG teams being formed and our losses during the Ori crusade it's hard to find someone with as much experience as Colonel Carter has, now may I please finish my lunch sir?" said Walter.
Just as they were both finishing up lunch the alarm sounded and the words" Incoming Wormhole" screamed over the base PA system. As they heard that both Walter and Cam were off and running down the hall and to the control room to see what was going on.
"Sir no IDC and were not receiving any message" said a young Major sitting at the station.
But before he could say anymore a set of Coordinates popped up on a computer screen. They weren't the address to a stargate but instead a point in space. Other then the coordinates a message read "Send SG-1" and that was all. So General Landry called Cam and Carter to the briefing room and had Daniel beamed in from the lab he was working in on Atlantis.
"Where's Vala?" he asked
"She is on the Tok'ra homeworld visiting ba'al's former host" Landry Replied
"She's there a lot" chimed in Mitchell.
"I sent word for Teal'c , but apparently the Jaffa are still having issues in getting the government to function properly, So he will be here within the hour" Landry said.
"Sir what is the mission?" asked Carter
"We received a message from an unknown source to send SG-1 to these coordinates" Landry said as he pointed to the coordinates on the space map
"Sir the map suggests that there is no stargate or planet there" said Carter
" I know colonel , that's why we are sending the General Hammond and Apollo to investigate" replied Landry
"Sir I though the Apollo was still helping the Sun Tzu get back from the Void" chimed in Mitchell.
"They were but arrived back yesterday, but two ships should be able to handle whatever is out there waiting for you" smirked Landry.
As the briefing went on the stargate activates and a few seconds later Teal'c steps thru and joins his friends as they are beamed up to the General Hammond. Colonel Carter radio's the Apollo to let them know that they are set to leave whenever the Apollo is.
"Colonel we will be set to leave within the hour, I have asked Landry to let us finish resupplying and to join you after" replied Colonel Ellis on the screen.
Just as the conversation was coming to an end General Landry sent word to Colonel Carter that they were to head to the coordinates and that the Apollo would be behind them by no more then an hour. With that the General Hammond broke Orbit and entered hyperspace and set out on the days journey to the edge of the Milky Way to investigate who had sent the message.
