The other lost city
CHAPTER I
It was a beatiful night, you could see all the stars known by men and more. All the guests were enyoing the party, all very happy and smilying. Well, all the cops and Shannahan's family were delighted, the SGC personel, scientiest and military, weren't. There was a group among them that was quiet and certainly unhappy. Daniel, Jonas, Cassie and Teal'c couldn't believe that the next day was Sam's wedding. But the worst part was that they didn't know were Jack was. He was invited but was missing the party.
"General" Daniel called George Hammond, former CO of the SGC.
"Cassie, Daniel, Jonas, Teal'c" the old man said.
"Do you have any idea where Jack may be?"
"He called me some hours ago to tell me that he had something to do, and that he would be arriving late."
"Ah, well, that explains a lot" the sarcastic Cassie coment. She definitely was spending a lot of time with certain person.
"Have you seen Sam, General?" Jonas asked, they haven't seen her since their arrival.
"She is with Shannahan's parents, they don't leave her alone. Mark isn't helping either."
Mark Carter didn't like the military, but the he was really mad with all of them because his father couldn't come to the wedding ceremony, that was taking place tomorrow. Some how he thought that all the military and civilians that worked with them were responsible of this.
In other part of the patio, Lt. Colonel Samantha Carter wasn't pleased although she had her beautiful smile glued to her face, her eyes were saying other thing. She wasn't paying any attention to the conversation that was taking place in front of her, between her future mother and sister in law. She knew her father was in a mision with The Tok'ra and that there was no possible way for him to be here, but that wasn't the reason why she was sad.
She knew that General O'Neill wasn't at the party. San was conscious that her inminent wedding with Pete was hearting Jack, how much she didn't know but she had seen his eyes the day she showed him the ring. However she was convinced he would come, he was after all her CO. But he wasn't here, end that's why her eyes where sad; only his presence would make her really happy.
