I own neither Stargate SG-1 nor Eureka...

It was funny how far the name Eureka got someone in the government… In fact Sheriff Jack Carter and Jo Lupo were escorting their newest weapons to Cheyenne Mountain. Why they were delivering Section 5 grade weapons to a complex in Colorado was anyone's guess.

But both Jack and Jo were in the dark about the whole matter. But Jack was the sheriff and Jo was in charge of Security for GD, so they got to escort the weapons. Fargo hadn't told them much pf anything; but they knew what the weapons could do, their power level, containment, dispersion rate, what would happen if one were to explode, any concerns about radiation leakage, and the like… It was the last two listed that had Jack Carter the most concerned.

They escorted the shipment into the mountain, where they signed in, apparently Eureka's non-disclosure agreement worked here too.

Inside, they were met by a staff-sergeant by name of Walter, to the General. There they met with General Landry's lead team, titled SG-1. What SG-1 stood for Jack didn't want to guess, but if he did, he'd say it'd have to deal with whatever was behind the blast doors. He knew them on site, having seen so many of them.

"General O'Neill, SG-1... Have a seat…"

Jack Carter turned from the image he was studying to look at the people who'd just sat down. He was surprised to see Jack O'Neill in one of the chairs. They'd met years ago, in a classified joint-op, between the DOD and USAF.

He was even more surprised to see his estranged cousin Samantha Carter seated at the table.

"Jack!" O'Neill and Sam exclaimed in surprise.

"Jack!" Carter said with a grin, "Long time, no see!"

They were more surprised than he was, and Jo was even more astounded.

"You were demoted?" O'Neill asked with a surprised look on his face to see Jack Carter in his sheriff's uniform.

"Promoted actually. With pay raise… Zoe's… Doing fine, I'm not so sure about me… She's in college."

"College… No kidding. She wasn't more than…" O'Neill made a gesture around waist height.

"Growth spurt and years later…" Jack Carter agreed.

"Did you know that I have fish in my pond?" Jack O'Neill asked Carter, out of left field.

"You didn't before Jo and I put them there…" Carter said with a smirk that Jo shared.

"YOU two put the fish in my pond?" O'Neill asked incredulously.

"We have an acquaintance, Taggart, that said it was okay for us to bring the fish…." Jo said, not giving much away.

"Talk to me when you've gone back in time…" O'Neill said rolling his eyes.

"Yeaah-" Carter said. "Don't want to do that again… The only thing worse than that was the time loop!"

Sam Carter took note of this as did Cam Mitchell, Teal'c, Daniel Jackson and Vala Mal-Doran.

"So- you two are from-" General Landry started off saying.

"A small town in Oregon…" Jo said, interrupting him.

"I heard that you've brought weapons for us to use?" Vala asked, genuinely interested.

Daniel stammered and brought their attention to him.

Jo and Carter immediately drew their side-weapons and aimed them at him. "How'd you get out of your cell?!" Carter demanded.

"Cell?" Daniel asked.

"Two years ago, you decided to mess with ancient al-chimey-"

"Alchemy," Jo corrected him.

"That's what I said,"

"Then say what you mean,"

"ANY way…" Carter continued with a small glare at Jo, "one of your students takes a metal that you created and accidentally turns any metal into Gold, but since it wasn't stable, everything started falling apart."

"Do you have any proof that I did it?"

"Sheriff Carter, Ms. Lupo, will you please holster your weapons?" General Landry requested as both still had them trained on Daniel.

He and Jo holstered their side-arms, and Jo pulled out her cell/PDA and the image they'd taken of him when he was arrested. It was definitely Daniel, the other members of SG-1 looked at him and then to the Eureka denizens.

"So. Mr. Dactylos… How did you get out of your cell?"

"Ooh…" Daniel said grimacing. "Yeah… when was that?"

"Two years, like we said."

"Wasn't that when Daniel was-" O'Neill made a quiet 'wssshhhh'ing sound accompanied with a waving gesture of his hands.

Sam and Teal'c nodded.

"Thought so…" O'Neill said to himself. "So it wasn't just us you were checking in on was it Danny Boy?"

In all honesty Daniel looked absolutely flummoxed. So Carter let the matter drop… For now. In favor of egging his estranged cousin.

"Hey Sam… Long Range Telemetry, huh?" Sam actually had the decency to blush.

"So, some of you know each other?" Landry questioned the group.

"I only know two of them well…" Carter said.

"I don't know them at all…" Jo confirmed. "Despite Christopher Dactylos here, being a government employee and working in a top-secret facility under another alias despite being expelled from the scientific community… "

General O'Neill and Daniel both cleared their throats, Ms. Lupo was definitely someone who knew how to hold a grudge.

"Then let's get down to introductions, after my team signs the N-D agreement forms…" General Landry stated.

"General, is it really necessary? I mean-" O'Neill complained, he hated the Non-Disclosure agreement forms.

"By order of the President and the Joint Chiefs." Landry said categorically.

After SG-1 and General O'Neill signed the papers, and the papers were handed back to Walter, who left the room and closed the door behind him.

Jo pulled out a handheld device that Henry had made, and activated it. It was a small silver pen-device that gave the room a hard flash of light and then a small black light ran up and down the clip of the pen, indicating it was working.

"What is that?"

"Something that one of our scientists made to keep meetings private." Jo said, "We deal with extremely sensitive equipment and several people of enterprising natures want to take advantage of it…"

"We have had people break into Area 51..." Sam said in understanding. "Some of the things that we do are out of this world…" SG-1 chuckled.

"Yeah- Area 51 wishes they had our security…" Carter said, paraphrasing Allison Blake from when he'd first arrived in Eureka.

That got a few heads turned in his direction. "Alright, we have same neat things that the Scientists back in Eureka have cooked up!" He said failing to change the subject.

"Cooked up?" Jo asked him, looking at him incredulously, an eyebrow raised. "Carter- this isn't a cooking show."

"Eureka?" Sam asked her cousin.

"This was invented in a town called Eureka?" She asked gesturing to the "pen" on the table.

"Yep… Eureka, Oregon. Population: 2,999 genius' and 1 street-smart Sherriff…" Carter said with a deprecating wince.

"Jack- with what we've been through, if it weren't for our "street-smart Sheriff", we wouldn't have a planet to call Earth…" Jo said, the look in her eyes telling her friend: 'Give me a break'.

Jo then began opening the "suit-case" that they'd brought with them. It was a pocket dimension suit-case; able to store anything, and yet still allow the bearer to find it easily. Someone had invented it recently, and much to Carter's amazement, Fargo hadn't blown it up and he wasn't asked to guinea-pig it… On second thought, maybe he and Jo were the guinea-pigs at that… Oh, this was not a good thing.
