A New Enemy

Disclaimer: I do not own Stargate SG1 or any of its various counterparts. This awesome series is due to the brilliant minds of its creators Brad Wright and Jonathan Glassner. It's also under the ownership of MGM Inc (or at least I believe it is).
A/N: To let everyone catch up, this story takes place during Season 6 of S. SG1. Even though Daniel Jackson is ascended during this season, he may make appearances. New characters (passive and active) will be introduced in this story but with sufficient enough background info for you not to be confused.

"So what is on this planet?" asked General Hammond.
"Absolutely nothing, sir," said Colonel O'Neill.
Sam, Jonas, and Teal'c looked at Jack.
"What the colonel means, sir, is that the scans for PGA-867 were normal: breathable air, non-dangerous radiation levels, and no civilizations within a 2 mile radius of the Gate according to the UAV," said Sam.
"Like I said, absolutely nothing sir," said Jack.
"Then it'll be a basic recon mission. SG1, you have a go," said General Hammond and stood up to go to his office.
Sam and Jack both stood up until the General's door closed.
"You don't have to be so upset just because it's a basic recon, Colonel," said Sam.
"I'm not upset. Am I upset T?" asked Jack, looking at Teal'c.
"Yes,"
"You have been on edge a bit, Colonel," said Jonas.
"I'm not on edge," said Jack, and then reconsidered when three eyebrows rose upwards. "Maybe I am a little frustrated. This is the fifth recon we've had with absolutely nothing going on. Four planets with no goa'ulds, which means no danger to get into, which means no firefight to the Gate! It gets a tad tiring after a while."
"We know sir," said Sam. "How about we go to the commissary to get some jello?"
"Red jello?" asked Jack picking up his papers and following Sam.
"Don't push it, sir,"
The next day around 1100 hours, Jack, Sam, and Teal'c were waiting on the gate room waiting for Jonas.
"Where is he? We're on a schedule," said Jack, looking at his watch.
"Chevron 3 encoded," came Walter's voice over the tannoy.
"Jonas Quinn forgot something in his office, O'Neill. He had to return to get it," said Teal'c.
"Chevron 4 encoded,"
"He better hurry up, only 3 chevrons to go," said Jack.
"Chevron 5 encoded,"
"He will be here, Colonel. Jonas wouldn't want to miss a mission," said Sam.
"Chevron 6 encoded,"
"I'm here," shouted Jonas as he ran into the gate room. "Sorry, forgot to pick up fresh tape for the camera,"
"Chevron 7 locked,"
"That's never gets old," said Jack, looking at the kawoosh. "And what do you need extra tape for Jonas? All that's out there is a whole bunch of nothing,"
SG1 turned to look up at General Hammond, saluted, then turned to walk through the wormhole.
Jack was wrong about the planet. It… really had absolutely nothing on it. There was just sand as far as the eye could see, which wasn't very far as there were hills in the distance, and some splotches of grass here and there.
"Come on kids, let's go find the yellow brick road," said Jack.
They had walked for almost an hour when Jack was ready to call it quits.
"How about we just say that there was nothing on the planet," he said.
"We've only been walking for an hour," said Sam.
"Fine. We go a few more minutes then we call it quits,"
The few minutes were almost over when Jonas spotted something shining over a ridge. He went to check it out, and smiled as he thought the Colonel would feel better.
"Colonel," whispered Jonas from the ridge. "There's something here that you will definitely want to see,"
Jack, Sam, and Teal'c ran up the hill. On the ground below was a goa'uld mothership surrounded by a number of al'kesh and gliders.
"Now this is what I'm talking about," said Jack as he watched the Jaffa move around.
"Can you tell what symbol is on their head?" asked Sam as she pulled out her binoculars from her pack.
"They're not facing this way. Can you see anything Teal'c, Jonas?" said Jack, taking a look through the binoculars after Sam.
"No," said Teal'c.
"None of them appear to be facing this way," said Jonas.
"Okay, let's go and report back to General Hammond," said Jack, going back down the ridge.
