John was suddenly feeling something cold and metallic under him when he landed. He had come through the gate while Aeryn was covering him. All he knew was there was come time of round device in the sand and something drove him and Aeryn toward it for escape. They were visiting a commerce planet and all of a sudden people started pointing towards Aeryn to be captured for her crimes, John thought at first maybe a beacon had been sent out and they recognized him, but the crowd started to turn ugly and started shooting at Aeryn for no apparent reason. John looked up and saw what looked liked military personal with rifles trained on him and a large booth above him which looked like humans. Oh boy what now, where's Aeryn? Aeryn where is Aeryn, she should have been right behind him. John started to get up and was warned to throw away his weapon and he would not be harmed. Man what, where is this, is this earth? Again they gave a warning for John to throw away his weapon. John thought you don't have to ask me twice. Col Cameron Mitchell was in the booth when a unauthorized activation of the ring was coming in, he immediately saw John when he looked up and thought "what the", everyone in Sg 1 was thinking the same thing, why does that guy look like Col Mitchell?
John dropped his weapon and wanted answers; he was worried about Aeryn not being behind him. Aeryn was his life and he knew if something happened Aeryn his whole life was over, he have to go back through that ring and get her. Man, he thought, his whole body hurt, there were people at every turn wanting to get at Aeryn if it wasn't for her dead on shooting, both of them would have been dead.
Suddenly he was approached by part of the SG 1 team, Tealc, Sam and Col Mitchell, John could not believe his eyes, there was another him standing right in from of him, he thought back to Aeryn, she is going to freak. Hello, can someone please tell me what is going on and where am I? Col Mitchell was the first to speak, uhm, my name is Colonel Cameron Mitchell and you are at SG1 headquarters and who are you? John was caught off guard thinking this is too weird, I'm talking to myself, literally.
My name is John Crichton and my wife and I were trying to escape through that big ol circle when everything broke loose. Where is my wife Aeryn? and why is everyone trying to kill her? John wanted answers and he wasn't getting them fast enough, he was worried about Aeryn.
I'm sorry but we don't' know what you're talking about, you came flying through the Stargate wielding a weapon and you just so happen to look like me and lucky you were not shot and asked questions later. Col Mitchell was still put off that this guy in front of him looked like him and sounded like him, Col Mitchell could tell this John guy looked military and a little rough around the edges, he knew the guy was worried about someone and he was willing to turn this place upside down if he didn't get an answer.
Look, John is it, we can debrief you as soon as we have a med team look at you, you look injured and we can sort some things out. Then we can try to answer your questions if you can answer us why you came through Stargate unannounced.
John had no choice, he was bleeding from a cut on his forehead and standing here talking to these guys was not getting him anywhere close to finding Aeryn , not to mention, Col Mitchell was unnerving him. Ok, Ok, my bad I'm sorry, I'm worried about my wife Aeryn and I need to find her, she's in danger and the longer we wait here, I can't help her, please, I need to get back to Aeryn.
Ok, John come this way and we will discuss this on the way to the infirmary. John filled SG1 on what happened to him and Aeryn and wanted answers on how to go back through the gate to save Aeryn. Everyone was in the briefing room, Daniel Jackson had joined them including General Landry, Tealc, and Sam. Vala was on her way from the commissary and they had not told her about there unauthorized visit yet. Everyone kept looking back and forth from John to Col Mitchell, the resemblance was uncanny. Suddenly Vala burst in and asked, what going on, she stopped dead in her tracks when she saw two
Col Mitchell's. Well this is a pleasant surprise, two Col Mitchell's just for me.
Daniel chimed in Vala have a seat this is John from, before he could finish, John jumped up and hugged Vala for dear life, saying, Aeryn, Aeryn, your alright, God you scared me, what happened? Vala was stunned, though she did love how this man hugged her, hm uh I'm sorry darling, but I'm Vala, Vala Mol Doran. John stepped back from Vala and was confused, come on Aeryn stop joking, and then John thought, Aeryn wouldn't joke like this.
What's going on, where, who are you? Everyone in the briefing room was confused by John's actions. Gen Landry interrupted and informed John this is Vala Mol Doran, she is part of the SG1 team, I think there is some confusion, all of them thought the same as Gen Landry; this is not all that is confusing. Col Mitchell chimed in John, John what's wrong? John apologized to Vala and explained this is getting weirder by the moment; I'm sorry Miss Vala you say. Yes, Vala answered, she could see the hurt in his eyes when John realized this person he was talking about was not her. I'm sorry; she looks exactly like my wife Aeryn. They could be twin sisters. John thought, first there were two Johns in Aeryn's life and now there are two Aeryns, this was just getting better and better by the minute.
