As you all know, SG-1 and the Stargate are NOT mine,tho sometimes I wish they were! Amanda, Tem'kraand the story/plotline are!I am not getting money from this so do go having a fit!
CHAPTER ONE- A Chance Meeting
As the Stargate opened on P3X-2R9, four figures stepped out. SG-1 was on a routine meet and greet when they heard a shrill sound coming from the forest behind the gate. The MALP had shown signs of people using the Stargate recently, but the sound was coming from the opposite direction of the path and more from the west.
As SG-1 came to a clearing, they saw a female with long, blonde hair in a deep blue dress, sitting on a rock, playing what looked like a recorder.
"Sir. Be careful." Carter whispered, kneeling down all of a sudden.
"Why?" I don't see anyone but her here." He whispered back, kneeling down as well and motioning for the others to do so as well.
"She might be a Goa'uld, Sir."
"What?" O'Neill tried to stay as quiet as possible, but not quietly enough.
"Na tali yo?"
Everyone stayed quiet, not moving.
"Na tali yo? She repeated her voice soft, light and young sounding.
"Ne ton kë, T?" She waited. "Nem. Okay"
"Carter… Who's T?" O'Neill whispered in her ear.
"Sorry sir. I don't…" Sam's eyes went into a blank stare and she went very still.
She saw the young girl, only her dress was a golden color and all ripped and bloody. She looked like she had just been beaten very badly. Tears were streaming down hers as well. The young girl's eyes were filled with hurt, pain, anger and something else she couldn't make out. She felt very angry with the girl – her sister – because she didn't want nor wouldn't understand why she had to leave so the Ash'rak wouldn't find her. All she wanted to do was say how much she loved her and how sorry she was for leaving but her sister – Amanda – was running down the hall…
"Carter!" O'Neill was shaking her.
"Sorry, sir. Just a second. I think I know who she is." Sam said, rubbing her face as if getting rid of tears.
"Good ol' Jolinar again?"
"Yes sir. Just let me try something?" she replied finding no tears.
"Fine. Be careful though." O'Neill said, deciding it would be safer to know whether she was Tok'ra or Goa'uld.
Sam nodded and moved away from the rest of the group. Amanda had gone back to playing her recorder, figuring it was just the wind she heard.
"Who goes there?" she yelled, still crouching.
"I" replied the young girl, putting down her recorder to listen.
"I am a traveler of distant lands, come to trade great riches."
"Then I am she who you seek. I am the traveler of the near-by lands. I also have great riches to trade with you."
"What is the code?"
"East." The young girl called out.
"West."
"Nairy! Where have you been? I have been worried sick! You haven't sent me anything like you always do!"
"Hey Tem! Has no one told you yet?" she yelled still crouched.
"Has who told me what yet?"
"Have you not talked with any of the Tok'ra lately?" Sam inquired.
"Nope… where are you?" she asked, looking around. "Your voice has changed. Have you found a new 'friend'?
"I guess you could say that," Sam said, standing up. "What do you mean by 'friend' though?"
"who are you?" Amanda asked calmly but pulled away slightly.
"My name is Samantha Carter. Jolinar had me as a host for a while."
"Can you please use the term 'friend'? 'Host is a little hostile foe me. That is why we came up with that term." She informed Sam. She informed Sam. Then she perked up a little. "So that means that she is back with the Tok'ra then!" Then she realized what this meant and dropped her eyes. "That means Rocha is dead, doesn't it?" When Sam looked at her she saw the tears in Amanda's eyes. Sam started to walk over to where she was but was met halfway by her sister. 'Wow. This is going to take some real getting used to!' she thought. The two women just stood there hugging, trying to comfort each other.
"Oh, Jolinar! Who's this?" O'Neill piped in walking over to them, Daniel and Teal'C behind him.
"Who's that?" asked Amanda, hugging Sam closer to herself.
"This is Colonel O'Neill. He's a friend, don't worry. And this is Daniel and Teal'C. They're friends too." She said, pointing to each in turn. She smiled gently to Amanda when she looked at her. She was amazed at how tall her sister was. 'What did she do, grown while I was gone?' she thought to herself and then realized that Rocha must have been taller then she thought.
"So kid. What's your real name?" Jack asked with a genuine smile on his face when she looked at him.
"Amanda, but everyone calls me Mandy." She replied politely.
"Okay, Mandy. So… you're Tok'ra, right?" he asked, looking a little suspicious.
"Yes," she replied. Then she giggled when she saw his stunned look. "It's because I look so young isn't it! That's always the case. Even Selmac's new friend had that expression!"
"You know Jacob and Selmac?" Daniel asked, getting involved in the conversation. Teal'C stood there being, well… Teal'C.
"Yup. Jacob's really funny! We always tell each other jokes." She smiled. Then she leaned in as if about to tell a secret. "Sometimes even Selmac tells a few! I like him a lot better when he's being funny!" Then she giggled again.
"Okay. Getting back on topic here. how old are you exactly?" O'Neill asked.
"Old enough to be Tok'ra. Hi Teal'C! How are you doing?" She replied to O'Neill's question then asking one of her own.
"I am well Amanda. How are you?"
"Tired, but happy that I found Nairy."
"I wish you wouldn't call me that. That's just annoying!" Sam called out.
"I know. That's why I do it!" she giggled and then yelled and ran behind Jack for protection.
"Alright you two. Cut it out. And what do you mean by it 'annoys you' Carter? You've never met this kid before now?"
"But I still have Jolinar's memories, and it annoyed her!" she said, glaring at Amanda. "Sir!" she added quickly in a lighter tone.
"Why does he call you Carter? I thought your name was Sam." Amanda questioned.
"It's just a nickname I've picked-up."
"Oh. I see." She said, walking back over slowly towards Sam. "What planet are you from?"
"These people are of the Tau'ri" Teal'C said.
"YOU'RE FROM EARTH!" Amanda exclaimed to no one in particular, but looking between Sam, Daniel and Jack.
"Yeah!" Sam said with a smile.
"Guilty I'm afraid." O'Neill said when she looked at him.
"Honest!" Daniel said, also smiling. Then he got a little misty-eyes. "Do you know of the host Ammonet?"
"I don't know her host, but I know her. I pity the child who got stuck with her though. She does not deserve such a fate." Amanda's voice went a little more adult-like but very sad.
"Do you know where she is, by any chance?" Daniel asked with hope evident in his voice and eyes.
"Yes! She's on MY home world!" She said with a type of venom and hatred in her voice that could send chills down your spine. "That thing, Apophis AND Klor'el all showed up one day with at least fifty mother ships and commanded that we worship no other gods but them!" she said angrily, placing her hands on her hips. "That was awfully bold of them considering they know what the penalty is for attacking a planet within the Common Wealth. Especially when the planet leader sits on the Council!"
"Yup! That's out friendly neighborhood Goa'ulds!" O'Neill piped in with a chuckle.
"What's the penalty?" Daniel asked, curious.
"Complete and utter annihilation." Mandy said with a matter-of-fact voice. "But only for the symbiot. Not the Host. You see, we have a way of extracting the symbiot from the host and instead of sending the symbiot to a planet of their choice like the Tok'ra do, we just kill them." Continuing in her matter-of-fact voice. Then when she saw the looks on their faces (except Teal'C who still had his normal stoic stare on) she quickly added, "But the biggest thing the host feels is a stiff neck when they wake up. And besides, they all know what the penalty is. They all get one warning and if they do it again, well, they were warned and that's all I have to say."
"Oh. I see" Daniel replied.
"I have no problem with that!" Jack piped in. "What? I don't." He replied, getting one of Daniel's 'Why-do-you-think-that' looks.
"Sam, you wanna know the creepy part about all of it is?"
"As long as it's not too creepy." Sam replied.
"Klor'el came to me the other day and asked me to be his queen!" she shivered and made a grossed-out face. "You know what I did? I laughed in his face and walked away."
"I was just about to ask that." Jack said.
"I know. Don't bother asking how, I'm telepathic. Don't worry, I won't go snooping. Your privacy is your own I respect that. "Holding up her hand to stop the Colonel from speaking.
"Then how did you know what I was going to say?"
"Because before someone speaks they think about what they are going to say. Sometimes you can hear it if they think loud enough.
"Oh… I see…" Cam the only reply from Jack.
"Jaffa Kree!" Came a sudden voice
"Oh-Shit! Great. Just what I want to see. Snake-heads." She waved her hand over SG-1 and they disappeared from site. they cannot see you but they can hear you so please keep quiet! she thought to them telepathically.
Just them, five Jaffa stepped out from the forest and into the clearing. The leader stepped up to Amanda and kneeled before her.
"High Priestess. I have a message from Lord Klor'el. He wishes to speak with you immediately."
"How did you find me here? Only I am supposed to know this address!"
"My Lord saw the symbols on the Chappa-ai and redialed them so we could return you home." The Jaffa replied.
Amanda smiled sweetly and with a tome that could melt sugar, "I will return when I wish!" Then her expression went from her sweet and innocent look to an expression so cold that it could crack a rock in two. "NO man will tell ME what to do!" She added venomously.
The Jaffa stood up threateningly. "You will return with us and that is not a request." They demanded.
Amanda's eyes flashed as Tem'kra decided to come out and play. "Do you wish to be punished?" She yelled at all the Jaffa. "Then do as I say and leave. Tell your Lord that I will be back when it fits my schedule!" she stood as tall as she could, her arms crosses over her chest and she looked as menacing as possible, then her eyes flashed again. The Jaffa looked at her and then after a few minutes the leader bowed and left the clearing, the other four Jaffa following him.
After waiting a few more moments to make sure they were gone, she turned to SG-1 and waved her hand over them and they re-appeared.
After proper introductions had been made, SG-1 and Amanda sat down and talked. When O'Neill told everyone it was time to pack up, both Sam and Daniel convinced him that the information Amanda had was invaluable and may someday save earth from the Goa'uld. Of course, as long as Amanda agreed to coming.
