Rating: PG
Spoilers: Probably none since I switch up the universe anyway, (see Author's note), but figure Seasons 1-8.
Sequel to: The Mirror
Beta-ed by: Lalene Brooks
Author's note: This story takes place in the same universe as the heroes. For the purposes of this story Martouf, Lantash, Aldwin, and a couple killed-off Goa'uld are still alive. Also, this story includes information from my story Martouf. I promise this story won't be as confusing as The Mirror.

Prologue

SG-1 traveled over the grassy plains, heading straight for where the quantum mirror had been left. They had checked the planet Kiron earlier that day, and the building built by the alt-Goa'uld had been taken down. It was a long walk, but their quick pace got them there fairly quickly.

"Too late," Daniel said as they approached the now empty hillside.

"It would appear that the Tok'ra have taken the mirror first," Teal'c said as he saw signs that the mirror had been taken away.

Samantha nodded slightly to herself. Since they already had a mirror, she was a bit glad the Tok'ra had this one. "All right, let's head back."

Not in such a hurry, the walk back to the stargate was slower.

:.:.:A Day Earlier:.:.:

Jacob, Martouf, Malek, and Kela'an arrived at the hillside. Having all gone through the mirror, they all wanted to retrieve it, and it would take all of them to carry it.

Lantash took control to frown slightly at the site. He glanced back to the others as they had followed close behind.

Malek spoke first. "It would seem the Tau'ri have beaten us."

Jacob glanced from the place the mirror had been to Malek. "I hope that is the case."

"The Goa'uld could not have learned about its whereabouts so quickly." Being there was nothing else to do, Malek quickly turned away.

"I hope you are right," Jacob said as he followed. He knew the Tok'ra would be too stubborn to ask his people about it.

Martouf was given control, and was last to follow them.
