As Charlie, Jack's son survives the gunshot wound from playing with his gun. But everything from the movie up to season seven stays the same after the time frame jump starts.
But everything from the movie
Chapter 1: Meeting Of The Future
It had been close to a month since he returned to earth and the program, and yet Daniel Jackson still felt like an outsider among his own people. "What if I don't like who I was, what if I don't want to remember, what if I don't want be that person, what if I never wanted to come back, what if I can't find it in me to make it up for something I did wrong. Said something wrong, I shouldn't have taken on that mission at the time back then.
"Yeah that's true, but it's not me who's done something wrong it's you guys. Can't you understand something here, that wasn't my fault, I was turned into a POW. Or can't you see past your own line of perception to know what this really is. You once said being team means being each other's life line, trusting each other, looking out for each other, always being there for each other no matter what happens."
"And yet when the going gets tough you forget everything that has to do with being a team, we win together, we lose together. When one of us was captured, you'd go to any length to get us back, but where I'm concerned, it's like you don't care anymore. So just what changed exactly huh, is it that you have too much pressure piling up on your shoulders or is it that you've let this issue of being a warrior change you."
"God, among the enterprise the crew understand each other, if only I had a therapist like Troi, she could help me get this out to the quintet, explain what really happened at the time. My memories are completely back, I wish..., I wish I could spend a few years in the future, so we could clear the air, and I could deal with this. I don't want this hanging over my head.' he thought as he and the quintet were discussing things.
"Teal'C could you hold back a minute here, we need to talk." he said and Teal'C nodded to him as they moved into the corner then. "What is wrong Daniel Jackson?" he asked and Daniel sighed. "Remember when we talked things over in your room after I came back?" he asked and Teal'C nodded to him. "Well the portion of why I didn't want come back is I'm not even sure I even want to be that me anymore."
"I mean I turned into someone I don't even recognize anymore, I don't want to be this me anymore. And I can't find it in me to face a memory that I don't want or I can make up for something that resulted in my leaving anyway." he said and Teal'C answered him softly. "I do not understand Daniel." he said and he sighed. "That situation regarding the sarcophagus was the start of their not trusting me anymore, I have a question."
"But in the Jaffa ranks, before we liberated you, did the goa'uld ever turn you into the Iraqi republican guard here. I'm talking torture, drugs and even going so far as violating your victim to get them to talk?" he asked and Teal'C felt his heart tightening in dread at the question as he answered him. "Indeed, why do you ask..., no, you are not serious Daniel Jackson?!" he said in shock and he nodded as he answered him.
"Teal'C, I'm talking about our conversation in the infirmary, before the attempt at the time. I showed you my arms, and gave you specific details at the time regarding what happened. Why I asked that question to Janet, and told you to call Hammond into the infirmary, so I could tell all of you, all at once. Do you remember that conversation?" he asked and Teal'C nodded as he felt his heart start speeding up at the memory.
As he went further then. "I wasn't lying when I told you that everything he's made it out to be, I was a POW that year. It's not real torture or the full thing in a violation, but it's enough, that's why I panicked when you came at me. But they don't cross the line, because until you're married it's sexual harassment, he left me alone with a bi-sexual guard, who had a crush on me Teal'C, that's the part I don't want to remember."
"I took your places just to protect you and then suffered your worst living nightmare, just to prevent that thing, and it's counterpart, from making its way to earth Teal'C. That's the thing, that's why I never wanted to come home, I can't go through it again, that's why I said that to Sam, to Jack, I don't want to remember that." he said and Teal'C nodded to him with a furious look as he answered him at that.
"The attempt, it wasn't really a true attempt, the right of Malshurran. to save your soul you chose the Jaffa last rights system?" he asked and Daniel nodded. "Yeah exactly, to save my soul and get the drugs out of me, I did the same thing. Bra'tac yanked your symbiote, but loss of that much blood does the exact same thing. To free myself from that addiction and the drugs it was I had to weaken myself enough to not go back at all."
"But I was seeing the face of the man who attacked me, and I suffered a flashback when you brought me into the infirmary, and seeing you come at me. I saw him and with the effects in my system, I didn't want anymore of his drugs in my system, his hands on me or anything else, and tried to escape. Teal'C. But that breakdown was because I just suffered the guys worst nightmare, your worst nightmare, because he arrested me."
"And I suffered repeated torture sessions with this bastard, the attempt was so I could recover completely and the outburst, they were reverse psychology. Say I'm returning and in response they do anything to stop it now. Their choice, in following Sam's choice was the right one though." he told him and he nodded, before he could answer they heard the voice of their commander answer him at that in shock.
"Son why the hell didn't you tell me that sooner?" General George Hammond said as he quickly walked over to him then at the explanation as Janet Frasier moved to him as well. "Sir I've been trying to for five years, I even convinced Janet to get you upstairs so I could tel the four of you all at once. But Jack keeps interfering with doing this, I gave you girls key details after the worst of it gave out at the time."
"Remember after I reached the key part, what his outburst was about. And then the expression on his face when I showed you my arms?" he asked and Janet nodded to him, her eyes narrowing. "He said you were delirious, you weren't delirious, he was afraid of hearing the truth. Said truth you just suffered every symptom of a POW, every reaction, everything leading up to what happened in the bathroom, it's pointed at one thing."
"And one thing only, you suffered a different version to his stint, but still the very same thing." she said and he nodded. "That did it for me Janet, you remember when Frank arrived here, it's happening again, just the positions got switched, I've hated him ever since. Sir listen to me, I've just suffered an alien version to his stint, Desert storm, Segei and Frank." he said and Hammond slowly at the news then as he answered him.
"Well he's not interfering now. Jacob and I are here, you can tell me what you have tried to then son, just tell me, what happened back then?" he asked and he sighed. "Jumper and Matheson wanted you to hear this, but I was carrying a pager on me when I came back in here when you were going over their latest mission. If he refused to go through with it. They were getting called in here and you heard the truth right then."
"But I was under their orders, you followed unspoken orders by letting me finish what I started. Remember what I said, 'I have to take the chance', this is what I meant. After I reported in for the third time, Pyrus's curiosity got peaked he wanted to know why I keep reporting to you. But I was given a choice tell them what we were doing there or marry her, but the injuries, the evidence was done by another person at the time."
"The other, my reaction at the time, was done because I was locked in a room with a medic who'd fallen so in love with me. He'd turned me into a drone, code red medical emergency, condition V, you created that after Charlie got turned into a host. And then when we had Jolinar hijack Sam, what alarm did Janet raise?" he asked and Hammond nodded slowly at the news as he answered him at that.
"We had a possible host on the base, though not a host, it's just as bad, that's what you were going to tell me. Pull the emergency procedures and wait for whatever timer there was they put on whatever dose they gave you to wear off at the time?" he asked and he nodded. "Why exactly, if you were that furious at Jack, what did he do exactly, if you lashed out at him?" he asked and he sighed as he told him the truth.
"Jumper said that till Pyrus was on his last legs don't do anything to shake up the hornets nest. The safety of the miners and the civilians came first, if it meant and means the safety of the physical, mental and emotional well being of everyone on earth, a few weeks in the mines won't kill them. I wasn't lying when I said I was running studies on the sarcophagus, but it was medical research needed to keep it off the planet."
"Someone screwed up here Sir, when I went to see Sam, I told her in code what I was really doing at the time. But either she never got the entire thing or he interrupted the most important part. But at the same time this was going on my memories of my time when I was with Egeria were also breaking down the front door. Combined together, we had to make a decent research paper, but it wasn't enough for AMRIID to use."
"Matheson needed more and he asked for me to run a battery of tests tests on the damn thing. After my third visit to the gate to talk to you his curiousity gets peaked and it switched from R&D to a POWat the time. Sir, listen to me, I actually was running reverse psychology on the damn thing and Shyla and you fell for it, but reacted like you were supposed to in this case, I didn't want you to accept that resignation form."
"I wanted you to refuse, you were my boss, but Jack was trying to do your decisions for you and I was appealing to you at the time. You're the leader of this base, but Sir, I need you to understand this, what happened wasn't my fault. That was no mission to get the Naquada at all at the time, I was under orders to run studies on the sarcophagus." he said and they nodded in shock at as he went to explaining things to them.
"I was under orders by Jumper, Maynard, Matheson and the president to tell the four of you, you three and Sam that truth specifically at the time, but Jack ended that by starting that argument with me. I wanted you to refuse, he may be my team leader, but you're my boss, you and Janet were the only ones who had a right to decide. But of the four of them, I needed her, Teal'C and Sam the most in this case."
"But I wanted you to pull that plug and just keep me home, as to why, my getting captured by Apophis or Ba'al, even getting captured by Hathor would be preferable to this at the time. And it's the same for getting captured by the rebels in every country, that would be preferable to what had I to go through on that planet at the time." he said and Hammond nodded as she gripped his arm at that news as she answered that.
"Us, why exactly?" she asked him softly. "You saw me like this only once before Janet, when one of the myths I studied all my life came walking right into the base. I get turned into its consort and you remember what happened next, I left that part, trying to crack that riddle to you girls, and Anna. And Teal'C did the rest, by finishing off my latest discovery about this one." he said and she and Teal'C nodded as they got it.
"Hathor, it happened again, you needed us to free you from whatever they did to you on the planet by pulling reverse psychology, brother?" she said to him softly and he nodded to her. "One too many trauma in five months, this was the final breaking point, I'm not getting enough time to recover from the last before the next one gets started. But four straight traumas in five months three based off the very same situation."
"You know what she did to me, but in this case it's not the full thing, but close enough, if there was anyway I could be free of Shyla and their grip on me. It was through you guys, you three and Anna, I needed you the most." he said and she nodded as she pulled him into a hug and he closed his eyes at that. "Shh, it's okay, it's okay." she said softly as he pressed his forehead to hers and she sighed as he finished it gently.
"Sir what's your own worst living nightmare when you were still Jack's age and working in the field exactly, and got stuck in the Middle East and said interrogator had seen you unclothed from the waist up?" he asked and Hammond nodded slowly with a furious look at the news. "That the bastard feel in love with me and then he..., what the hell did they do to you, Warner reported scratch marks all over your arms, chest and legs?"
"I mean if you just told me the truth, I would have yanked you off duty till you were ready to back into the field." he said in shock and he sighed. "After the cave in, the guy that caused that in the infirmary. Had drugged me with a nerve stimulant, amplifying the sense of touch where you can't take it at all. Because both kinds of touch feel like someone is running a feather across your skin, after they got the dose right."
"Pyrus decided, after the latest transmission I gave you to find out why we were there and this maniac jumped me the night before. But seeing his eyes, I knew that the crush had switched from a crush and straight to the manner that the woman on the tales from the crypt episode was acting like." he said and they nodded to that information. "I need an honest answer, but how many times were you exposed to that drug."
"Let alone how many times did he attack you, and take your time?" she asked him gently and he sighed. "The drug last's twelve hours, but 21 days, times two, 42 doses of it. But barely after one dose ends, he hits me with the next, and is never leaving me alone. That's why I was so skittish in the mines that day, after a week of this, I was ready to lose it, I was working over time, trying to counteract what he was doing."
"But every time I did, they neutralized the adrenaline, leaving me as weak as a teenager, keeping me trapped. But he's my version of Segei, not the interrogator that beat the crap out of Jack, but the sick demented freak that Segei was. To keep me there, they created a pact, he had the job of over riding my nervous system. To end that pact, I needed you guys, to do anything to break it, but I never got the chance to tell you."
"Because Jack interrupted twice, and I had to do your medical procedures for you, but that's the reason things have been screwed up ever. If you'd given me fifteen minutes to tell you, this wouldn't have turned into what it did. Though I blame Jack for my getting captured, I needed you three." he told her and she nodded with a furious look. "Oh dear god, no wonder you had to resort to doing anything to get me to pull the plug."
"And what caused the collapse exactly, she said you were unconscious?" Janet asked and he sighed. "Sleep deprivation combined withdrawal from the amount of true drugs and alcohol in my system. I was trying to counteract the drugs by using the sarcophagus to drained it, but it was going in the runaround. I was going to tell you this when I got back, after I got all five of you into the room, before the sudden come down hit me."
"You see the oily look to my skin: on my legs, back and neck, like I was covered in oil?" he asked and she nodded to him. "That's the added evidence, but think about it, what's the reason I asked to take a shower fifteen minutes before you ran my exams. And Warner loses it after Jack tells him where I was. He's a doctor who's seen several soldiers recovering from a POW and to him, my being in the shower means only one thing."
"To him, as it means I'm in the midst of the side effects of the aftermath of a POW stint." he said and she nodded as her eyes narrowed in anger. "You were trying to scrub the evidence off of you, and if I'd been paying closer attention. I've had heard the thud or crash if you collapsed into the wall or right into the equipment cart of towels sitting in the corner of that bathroom." She said and he nodded and they all nodded to him gently.
"But this is what De Lancie's character in the show meant, greviously savage childlike race, we claim to have grown in intellect. And yet we, or rather the military, can't see that one of their own has just suffered a soldier's worst living nightmare. And then continue making mistake after mistake in said comrade's case. You ever wonder why Q considered us like that?" he asked and she nodded to him as he explained that to her.
"He's a more advanced version of the Tollan, Sir. But he was right, the way they see us is because we, or rather Jack, and the other guys like him, black ops, spec ops. But guys that are jocks and athletes that leap before they look. But when they look at me they see someone who could change their mind, Jack, no. Remember your first lesson to me regarding this when being a military tactician and you're behind enemy lines now."
"Know your enemy and know yourself and you will win 100 battles without disaster, and the other was 'he will triumph who knows when to fight, and when not to fight'?" he asked and Hammond nodded to him. "Yes, you ended up behind enemy lines and instead of Jack who gets it. You do, because he got too reckless and landed you in that maniac's clutches and you took his place at their interrogations."
"So thanks to him, what was it regarding things if you wanted to forget?" he asked him gently as he answered him. "Sir, the man who did this to me was a medic, a bi-sexual male. Lloyd already gave the name to what happens when a person ends up falling in love with their patient. But reason number two is far more serious here, as to why. To quote the words of every psychiatrist out there regarding these things as well too."
"Things that are too painful to remember we choose to forget and in a child's case..." he said trailing off anf Hammnd nodded. "We want them to forget, I can't believe I'm hearing this right now, I knew you were a skilled tactician at the time. And that your skills in diplomacy were beyond good these last seven years. But Jack just landed you in the one position you never should have been put into at the time."
"Alright let me guess, but the reason for that is a childhood memory you tried to black out and the second character brought back that memory and it hit you so hard. You panicked and tried to get out of the base. But that wasn't you at all, you were trying to get us to prevent you from leaving. While they're trying to walk you out the front door, but we prevented that twice." Hammond said with a furious growl at what he just heard.
"The sextet and Matheson said the exact same thing, after I recovered they named me a honorary major at the time. But the reason I came to you, regarding the following situations was because I was under their orders. Regarding Euronda, when I took it to you and you gave me orders to do a bit of digging, you were really following their orders. Jumpers exact orders were to do some digging and if found signs of anything heinous.,
"A threat to earth or something we got rid of back on earth, pull the plug, we can find results else where. But we're not getting involved in other people's wars and not for something we abolished 50 to 60 ago. So I came to you, you called them, they approved my mission, you gave me the go ahead and it's done, it's been like this for years. Every situation that caused me to give up, I was really under their orders at the time."
"Sir, you really been following Starfleet's mandate all this time, our creed and mandate was similar to their's. The joint chiefs, aside from Vidrine, are the committee, but our mandate is theirs, the true one. Jack's unknowlingly following the one that the Trust, Kinsey and Vidrine have polarized these last 3 1/2 years ever since his undercover stint. I'm really the one in charge of the team and he's not even realizing this at the moment."
"Jack has been breaking orders ever since the touchstone, Jumper gave orders not to fire and he still does it. Everything he's doing, it's on the orders of Vidrine and Vidrine is working for the NID." he told him and he nodded in shock at the news. "So to him, he's trying to block it out and not realizing he's listening to his alter ego, our command's alter ego, he's turned into his black ops self?" he asked and Daniel nodded to him gently.
"Yes Sir that's it exactly, but I don't want to remember that, you always considered me your most valuable archeologist, because I could get the job done easily. But it's time I told you why I was in this position in the first place, but General Jumper, the president and Dr. Matheson asked me to run studies on what the damn thing does when you suffered the injuries I had and then see what it does to a healthy body."
"But Jack landed me in that thing, in that position, and I suffered an alien version to his original POW just without the violence. And the sexual assault, but I was abused by this sick bastard, he's the alien version of Segei, and I don't doubt the bastard saw me naked from the waist up and you get the idea here. But that sums up my reaction in the infirmary, I was suffering a flashback and combined with it was a speedball effect." he said and he nodded as he pulled him into a hug at that as he felt him shaking.
"How serious was the damage if you had to resort to using it that many times exactly?" she asked and he explained that to her. "Thirty broken bones, five internal injuries and severe muscle and tissue damage. That was actually part of the basis and he helped it along by trying to escape, and one of the guard blew out the roof right above me at the time, to answer your unasked question here at the moment."
"The results were compiled to seven things, and we already had one of them as I did that the year before. But like you saw with Jack getting turned into a Jaffa, that's one, surviving severe injuries like getting shot with a staff blast or several bullets. Later that year, before we met Selmak and Martouf, the next five came into the picture. But what what happens when you combine caffeine with the adrenaline burst it gives off."
"Surviving a near fatal injury, like getting caught in a cave in, a rock slide, or just walking into a minefield. How long it takes to heal from these injuries when using it, two: what happens when you combine drugs and alcohol with it. Three: what's the maximum safest limit before it starts to effect you spiritually and mentally. You got the answer to that question last year with Jack and Ba'al, as I said it takes more than what I did."
"To destroy a person's soul and their sanity, and his was the big one, he took in three times the limit I took in. In fact mine was only ten after I was nearly killed, yet again, but number four: what's the dangers of using one that's malfunctioning and after its offering three to four times the jolt of adrenaline. And five what would it take before it's no longer able to bring you back and I got the answer to that question from Egeria."
"It would taking blowing the central piece to the nervous system, so one staff blast directly to it." he said and she nodded. "So destroy the brain there's absolutely no coming back to life from it. So all of this was part of the basis you wrote of everything Matheson, Warner and I needed to keep that thing off the planet. And in the middle of this you get captured?" she said and he nodded to her as he answered her gently."
"Yeah and that explains the added record in your diagnostics on me, I healed up 85% of the damage. But I wasn't sticking around longer than necessary and you took care of the rest of the healing by keeping me home after that, but the muscle demage wasn't from the sarcophagus. I was still recovering from the amount of damage the cave in caused, you took care of the last piece of it, but they did everything else."
"But the healer said it was serious enough had I not had access to it. In our age, this is enough that if no access to this technology was available. I'd be stuck in bed for nine months to a year and on permanent disability for the rest of my life at the time." he told her and she nodded with a furious look on her face at the news as she answered him gently. "I saw that your entire systems were out of whack, let me guess here on this."
"But the effects of repeated exposure caused your system to crash, because you were working around the clock just to get you guys out of there. You remember your remark, regarding these things at the debriefing after we got the base reinstated. Because if one exposure causes you to collapse out of exhaustion, then I'm looking a general stimulate cocktail here at the moment?" she asked and he nodded to her as he said it.
"Yeah exactly, but to save the physical, mental and emotional well being of everyone on the planet. I decided I was going to be the guinea pig for this, but I was under orders by the trio to tell you after we got back. Before Jack and Sam screwed that up, or rather Jack did you have the testing results for my case. Jack's case is what happens when exposed for longer than my limit, but his was a prisoner war stint without the final thing, and he's captured by a crazed Goa'uld at the time as well too."
"Mine, before this situation, both times, the first mission and the orbital attack, was the first, the general stimulate cocktail till it wore off and you could sleep it off and rest. This one was the next stage, like a person who'd drank themselves under the table, or was speedballing with the alcohol. Apophis was what happens after the human body is exposed so long that it can't heal the same way anymore, and it no longer has an effect on you and as for Jack that's the big one."
"But his was the effect of being exposed to ten years worth of drugs and needed intense rehab and when the victim was also suffering a POW. But here's the bad news now, Shyla and her people had tampered with the technology, making it offer three times the jolt, when I said I used it nine to ten times, that wasn't a lie. But the effects of that kind of jolt had you thinking I was exposed even longer than that."
"Combined with that was exposure to alien drugs and then comes the reason you had me under scrutiny now. But never, ever combine sedatives or earth drugs with it or it causes a PCP or speedball effect." he said and she nodded as he answered that with a furious look on his face as he said it to him. "Whoever missed something here has just caused such a problem it's going to take time to fix things regarding our bonds."
"So all this time someone interrupted her memory flash and here's the result. Alright those two are the reason I stopped trusting you ever since the sarcophagus. Alright I don't care what it takes, I getting things back to the way things used to be between us, before the accident, I thought of you as a son since I had the chance to get to know you. But thanks to whoever screwed things up here has just barely destroyed our bonds."
"And I'm fixing them, right now." Hammond said and he nodded to him as he answered him, looking between them and then sighed as he said it to him gently. "No Sam didn't miss anything at all, Jack interrupted the information needed to prevent the outburst in the infirmary, but what I was going to tell you. Was I needed to be in a sun lit room while I was in detox." he said and she looked at him in shock as she answered him at that.
"Why exactly?" she asked and he explained that. "Though it heals your body, it depletes a dangerous amount of Vitamin D from your body, I was always in the sun at the time. So I never had this problem till I had to do this, that's one fatal mistake and the other was by his interrupting Sam's premonition, if he did interrupt it at the time. That's why I never wanted to remember and why I never wanted to come back."
"Sir, these last five years have more pain than happiness in this, thanks to him, he's refusing to listen. And let me do things my own way, we can get more done by making friends and building bridges than by looking for technology. If you'd just given me a chance to explain then, that wouldn't have happened and neither would our bond be this strained." he said and finished with a sigh as he looked at him gently.
"If I could go back to get to you both before she did, but there had to be more to that message than what Sam got, though if Jack interrupted in the middle of it than he's going to get it for this but again, if I could go back and change things, I would. If they just waited till after I spoke to Warner, he told you, Janet, and Janet told you, Sir, that solves this before it even starts, but they jumped the gun far too quickly here now."
"And I would have, but I couldn't, Jack tore that plan and here's the result." he said and he nodded to him as Teal'C said it for him at that with a furious look on his face at the news then. "Who else knows about this information aside from you telling us this now finally?" he asked and he sighed. "Bill does, Janet, you're a woman, for this I needed the rehab medical doctor and the only one who wasn't bothering with his act."
"Bill, Jason and Ricky were in the room and they saw everything. After I told them the truth, Bill got to work on the antidote and by the time I collapsed it was ready. But for the entire forty eight hours during detox, said detox was really the alcohol and the drugs as well as the serum. He set up an IV and gave me the antidote to what they used on me in liquid IV form and after I was able to hold things down, in pill form."
"But Jack, I have reason to believe, is either brainwashed or he's had a relapse in his training. Sam herself is clean, but Jack is the one suffering the same damn side effects as Anakin. Attack of the Clones and if I'm right the Revenge of the Sith and he's playing Anakin, he doesn't realized he's being manipulated by a man as close to the Sith as you can get." he said and she nodded as she went back to his situation.
"My 2IC was the first to find out after I ran the tests and he ran them five times to make sure, an alien speedball effect here. And combined with it was a flashback, and then comes a soul cleansing. Let me guess, but to deactivate whatever this was. You had to have a near death experience and the best doctors on the base were us. And we were the ones who could deactivate whatever they did to keep you there."
"And in the same way Teal'C had dealt with it and with it was a soul searching exercise here?" she asked and he nodded to her as she sighed as she said it. "We don't have the resources or time for me to help you heal from this and not with multiple missions coming up every other day here. If we could just give you a chance to heal away from the duo, I could wipe the slate clean, and we start over, but we can't right now."
"Damn it, if your friends among the ancients have a way to help you deal with this, I'm taking any help they have to offer, because fifteen to sixteen traumas in the side of five years and this one is the one you still can't get over right now, and why you don't trust the psychiatric department either." she said and Teal'C answered that remark. "I am not an emotional healer, but if there's a switch up in the next mission now."
"And you could tell this to them and you have to tell whoever we meet this, because they're not going to take it any better than we do. And neither will the teams that do double duty with us." he said and before he could answer that he heard a furious tone at the news. "Too late I heard that entire remark, and I'm beyond pissed at this, how could they, the duo, not see this at the time." he heard and Daniel answered that remark.
"Because, to him he's not sticking around a cave longer than necessary and at the moment, I just took his place, and yours in your worst living nightmare and when the asshole is a bi-sexual man. But I'm never forgiving him for this and if there's another reason Steve is this pissed at me, and he's crossed a line he can never take back, Dave." he said in response and smiled, already knowing the voice belonged to the leader of SG-13 as the man answered him with a bemused smile in his voice.
"Show off, I'm not going to ask how you knew who just walked into the room, because we been friends for seven years, it's only natural you know our voices the second you hear them. Though considering I've seen you when on duty and you've trained to use all your senses in hand to hand combat this happens to be one of them." the Colonel said in bemusement as he heard the voice of his best friend from SG-2 answer that remark.
His tone beyond furious as he said it. "No kidding and you're right, but one too many traumas and then you have to live our worst living nightmare as spec ops soldiers. Though if you were trying to prevent us from coming to get you out, I'm guessing there's got to be a reason for that right now. But if it's what I'm thinking, I'm going to kill him again though he's dead already and then go for three cases of over kill."
"Daniel why the hell didn't you tell us this when you came home thst day?" he heard and turned to see lieutenant Colonel Louis Ferretti, Colonel Dave Dixon and Colonel Paul Reynolds standing there. "Why else, PTSD Lou, you can't bring it up without triggering a flashback, it's not the version in the Iraqi's but close enough in comparison. As if that's not enough, you did and you're next to get captured here buddy as to that."
"That's why I never wanted to come back, the trio are holding this over me and they don't even realize it. Though with the fact I just dropped the bomb on you guys now regarding this. And it's enough that the real reason is getting his head handed to them when you realize it, if we have our memories played with. Because he's failed me once too often at the moment and here's the added problem these last five years."
"But I was subjected to your worst nightmare when on the job, man. When I said that this bastard was a bi-sexual I wasn't kidding. But you could maybe take this once or twice, but mine, I, I..." he started to say as a new set of memories hit him as he fell into the table and they quickly grabbed him and sat him down as Janet crouched in front of him and he buried his head into her shoulder as she held him before he relaxed then.
"Alright, alright easy, just relax." Reynolds said to him gently as he tried to keep from losing control of his stomach. "That wasn't from this, I saw what Ba'al did to Jack, the memory came back finally, damn it, first Ry'ac and Bra'tac and now Jack, I don't need this right now without it making it worse right now." he said and they nodded to him as he went further, before the news hit the general and he looked at him in disbelief.
"Wait, he said he saw you, when we saw you at just before Anubis destroyed Abydos, that's when you saw him?" Hammond said in shock and he nodded. "Why the hell didn't he tell us that information at the time, because it's enough he's going to be expecting a severe reprimand for lying at the moment." he said and Daniel looked at him. "What did he say when I came back the final time, before Vis Uban?" he asked and he sighed.
"When he said he saw you and I told them I had too, but when he asked why I didn't bring it up, he said he did not think it was really happening. And at first I did not either, before I remembered as ascended beings you can project yourselves into our minds and you did that with me to keep me company." Teal'C said to him and he nodded to him. "Our friendship was what mattered Teal'C, I wasn't letting anything get in the way."
"But as I'm not the one who strained our bond, that's why he was trying to hide this, he'd given up on our friendship. But I saw the entire thing, but as I said as an ancient, I was pushed into a case of non interference. But when Anubis threatened Abydos. I decided enough was enough now. But that was the reason for the frequent nightmares the past three weeks, dad, I've been doing enforced insomnia for this reason exactly."
"And that's the reason for the frequent memory recalls lately, because I was up all night the day Teal'C, Sam and I were in the gym with him and I told her this. Before I had the latest one in meditation and now comes this one. I can't keep this up without it causing my powers, if they're buried still, to break down the front door right now dad." he said and Hammond nodded as he felt his heart jump as he answered him.
'Seven years and I didn't think he'd ever start calling me that now, we have a chance at a second chance, the Ancients gave us a second chance at our bond and I'm not letting it go to waste now. And I'm not wasting it now either at moment, we can fix this, but it's time for the truth to come out now.' he thought as he answered him. "It's okay son, but with the fact you're telling us this now, we can fix this."
"I'd never risk the safety of the others, just to get you four out, not when you're so good at getting yourselves out of the trouble you get into, but this is a situation you never should have been put in now. I know you were trying to protect the boys, and you're getting a honorary officer's position in that as well. But whoever caused this is in serious trouble and I don't give a damn for excuses right now, they want someone to blame."
"Then they can blame me and the trio for this, but leave you out of it, because you're only following our orders right now. Alright I'm taking full responsibility for this, Doctor, I want you and Warner to say you had orders by Darrel. And I'm saying the same regarding Jumper and the president. And it's he was ordered on a research mission for us and this POW stint was part of it." he said and they all nodded to the orders.
"Five years and I still can't get over it guys, I'm not going back, I'm never going back, my mission was to run studies on the damn thing. But everything that happened that month, was so I could get the information back to Matheson, and Warner was in on it. In fact for this, to protect Jack from being the one to suffer the memory of his own stint I decided to take his place and was falling behind on purpose at the time."
"For two reasons: to protect you guys: Teal'C, Lou, Dave and get the research done, and I set myself up to be captured just so I could get my mandate done and then begin studies after they healed me with the first round. And then once the studies were done, Matheson ordered me to destroy it, the sarcophagus. Which I planned to do after Pyrus was dead to save Shyla from herself now in using it till it turned her into her father."
"But upon doing this I learn there's a second lying around, but don't make me say it, please. Teal'C, Sir, Janet, like I said that reaction in the infirmary was so I could get you to keep me here, by any means necessary. I've been given a choice, marry her, or tell them the truth of what the hell we were doing there. What's also in there is I don't doubt this guy saw me naked from the waist up and to get the sick bastard to stop."
"I took the first, but my parents are dead and barely a month later come this, that's what made me break finally, when he got me to focus finally. I was having a flashback when the worst of the symptoms gave out. But you never should have mixed alien narcotics, the effects the technology and the sedatives together, it causes a speed-ball effect." he told them and she nodded as Reynolds said it to her softly as he gripped the back of his neck gently as he answered him.
"To put this bluntly, is the Tokra never get in it if they don't have to, and if they do, it's they quickly get out of it the second the cycle is done to keep from using it again. Egeria gave added information that mixing drugs and alcohol with it causes an adverse effect and combining sedatives with it causes a PCP and speedball effect. Which explains what happened in the infirmary, dad." Daniel added to him and he nodded as he said it.
"That's what we needed to know to give that alibi now, and again, with the fact you just told us this, we pretend we already know, and Colonel Dixon, Colonel Ferretti tell them the truth. Jack was left out of the loop on purpose and the added information regarding Jolinar was what also needed. But whoever ended it, before she could finish is what we need to know now." Hammond said and he nodded as he answered him.
"Dad though she didn't understand, because I put everything into code, she still did as I asked at the time. Those sarcophagi were offering triple the dose, I'd take in, in total, only three doses at the time I went to see them. But the damn thing was malfunctioning by the time we got back, I had the equivalent of 30." he said to him as Reynolds sighed as he looked at his friend then, and feeling the connection activate, he said it gently.
"Shh, it's okay, it's okay, damn it, I'm just getting to know you and even I can see you're beyond traumatized right now. If Jack can't see this in you, he doesn't deserve to be your team leader right now. I was half expecting that to happen now anyway, but you took our worst living nightmare and never caved in. And that's the act of a true spec ops soldier, you're just like us, but at some point we need to cave and let it out."
"You did that in the only way possible and it's by going to any means necessary just to get them to pull you off duty and keep you here at the time. If I'd been here, I'd have yanked you off duty and you could tell me that truth and then I'd have ignored Carter. Gone with Teal'C and decided to test that theory, but screw the sedatives, we just wait for it to give out and once you're recovered I'm not holding that against you."
"But someone dropped a dime on the incursion, you got hit, you went down and he made a judgement call to save the rest of the team, you were lucky to survive the cave in at the time. But that's no excuse right now for letting his anger get in the way, I'm just saying this now, but just what the hell is that damn idiot thinking of right now." he said, and before he could answer that, Teal'c did it for him then.
"Paul, with you and Dave being the second and third colonels in command of the base, its time for a status change, because Jack has turned into an asshole lately at the moment." he said and Hammond crossed his arms as he answered him. "Language and you're probably right at the moment. What are you saying son, put him on probation till he changes back to what he was like when we started out and before the undercover stint right now?" he asked and they all nodded to him as he said it for all of them.
"The him that we know when we were kids, yes, he's turned into such an ass that I'm considering resigning from the team. And joining Lou or Dave in their units just so I'm out of the radar. But I swear to god, if I learn anything else regarding this and why my friendship with Steve is on the rocks and it's over with till I get Sarah back. Because he crossed a line he can never take back now when I find out what it is now."
"But Steve said if I wanted to salvage our friendship then get her back and we can, now that we have him in on a non disclosure in this. Though if there was a chance to salvage things here it was and it's by us trying to find and screw going on leave, at the moment. Well I'm saying the same thing now: Jack if you want to salvage our friendship if I learn that truth. And it's you want to salvage our friendship than help me get her back."
"And return to a time when you actually gave a damn about more than just yourself. I get drafted guys and tell him that, because whoever I get connected to on this mission in the future, he's losing me for however long it takes till the mission is complete." he said and they nodded as Teal'C sighed as he looked at the quintet. "When we were chal'ti, very good word for it Daniel Jackson, when we started out, seven years ago."
"And you were just coming out of your chal'ti years at the time and as was Major Carter and the rest of us we all were in our prime. But now we're in our veteran years." he said and they nodded in agreement. "I think this job turned us from kids Hayley's age and into skilled veterans, like the starfleet academy and being deployed, and until we pull the trigger for real in this job, we still have our innocence."
"And once we do that's it and we become battle hardened and here's the result, he lost his love for space travel, because of the amount of kills he's had to do. And our first true situation happened to be Hathor, moving on from there, was the attack in orbit and it just keeps getting worse. But he lost his love for space travel, and fighting honest after he got trapped on Edora dad." Daniel said and he nodded as he looked at her.
And he answered that with a firm growl, before Reynolds looked between them. "Chal'ti, what does that mean exactly?" Reynolds asked and Lou answered that one as he remembered the good old days then as he hid a slight smile as he said it to him. "It's Jaffa for children and in his eyes, and Bra'tac, we are still, because they both are twice our age, though they look the same age as Hammond and Jack at this age."
"But our starting point was our first year and in those days we loved the rush that going through the gate gave off, but we were acting like kids on a roller coaster ride." Lou said and he nodded as Daniel finished that. "Yeah he's right, but with Jack being all soldier, and Hamilton was right when he said this. But every time he encountered something he couldn't understand and he immediately assumed that it was a threat."
"That's the way the black ops soldiers think, and to them, non active status is like death to these guys. But his hanging around with Maybourne, blackmailing Kinsey into reinstating dad and the undercover stint, he's turned back into his alter ego again Lou." he said and Lou nodded as he covered his eyes. "What's his alter ego?" Reynolds asked and Lou answered that question as he and Daniel exchanged looks then.
"What he was acting like after his son died, Charlie accidentally shot himself with Jack's personal gun. During the mission to Abydos, he turned into a machine bent on self destruction. After meeting Skaara, we though he was fully recovered after the situation with the Crystal entity that took the shape his son. Looks like we were wrong, at the moment, Maybourne caused him to have a relapse as a result of that undercover stint."
"He's been acting like his old self ever since and Daniel and didn't have to hear the words regarding what happened in the lab. We know about Sam and him, he's self destructed and is on the edge of destroying us." he said to him. "The undercover stint to arrest the NID agents, they turned my second in command into a hard nosed bullying ass. And you wind up paying the price, you solved these disputes easily as you're a diplomat."
"And why need weapons when the real weapon is the weapon of words now, 'know your enemy and know yourself and you will win 100 battles without disaster', and 'he will triumph who knows when to fight, and when not to fight'." Hammond said and they nodded as he finished his remark at the new information his team gave him. "Well I'm having a very firm talk with him and if you get drafted and I'm just telling him."
"That the only person he has to blame for your friendship being like this is him and him only, if he's trying to block out memories he can do that. But sentence you to recrimination, because you did as we asked at the time. Your personality was made clear after I got the chance to know you, but you're no pushover, and you're more like Riker than you think at the moment, you're a bit of jock, but you value science as well.".
"But then, if this was Starfleet and not the stargate program, I'd just say this at the moment here. But if you wanted to vent what you're feeling, if we had a holodeck and we could have you using that to drain the anger at him. But holding it in till you explode is going to do more damage than necessary, son, though with the amount of anger in you." he said and he nodded as Teal'C said it to him then as he looked at Reynolds.
As he sighed as he told him the truth then. "To answer your question Colonel he was not, he was in a rush to get out of the mines, I'd say he never learned his lesson regarding Abydos either. But that is not our current problem, but what is- is that Major Carter jumped far too quickly in this situation and as a result Daniel Jackson has paid the price in her choices. As Daniel is the only one that understands this technology."
"But you can't listen to a biased opinion, Tokra are biased, but there's very few remaining of the original batch if we could hear this from one of them that could answer some questions now here. But as we got a demonstration here regarding the technology with O'neill, what he suffered through is enough to destroy the soul. As is his was five to ten times times more than Daniel suffered that year, his was enough to turn him."
"But Daniel, it just unleashed the venting that he'd been holding in since P7J-989 and it just unlocks the pain and anger from a previous trauma and said trauma was focused on reliving the day his parents died now. Daniel Jackson suffered a speedball effect and a few days recovery from it. But the true danger was mixing their alien drugs with sedatives and there's the result now at the moment, we just commited the mistake."
"And Oneill prevented Major Carter from hearing the entire message, if we could fix this, that would have worked after the worst pieces of the withdrawal had been dealt with. As he slept it off, but if I have to guess that the other reason he was in pain, it's because of vitamin and mineral levels. But what is also in there is that when she started having flashes from the memories of Jolinar, is that before jumping feet first into it."
"O'neill, Dr. Frasier and you, General Hammond, should have placed her under guard after that. With that is that if they, the duo, slowed it down they would have seen this. It takes a very high degree to fight that technology off and he done it." he told him and he nodded as Daniel answered that remark. "You're right, we should have and if I bothered to ask how she got that information, I would have put her back under watch and then taken your opinion." Hammond said and he nodded as Daniel answered him.
"No Teal'C, I put everything into code when I was telling you what the heck was going on when I came to see you that day." he said and Teal'C straightened up at that. "You were speaking in code to me and Samantha that day to get us to realize this and that you got captured by him?" he repeated and Daniel nodded. "Damn it, alright you told us in code what the hell was going on, is there a way to view that memory finally?"
"Because it's enough we can use this to clear the air now and get the truth out. Son, what about everything else, was that also under Ryan's and presidential orders, from the orbital attack up to Reese. Was that also under presidential and joint chief orders?" Hammond asked and Daniel nodded to him as he said it. "Yes, the president and Jumper gave unspoken orders to defy orders regarding the orbital attack."
"But they started with the Tollan and we moved down the list from there, but the president named me an honorary major in the Airforce that year. And I was doing everything that strained the connection, between Jack and me, under his and Jumper's orders. I just earned my silver oak leaves this past year for doing a mission that was going to save two planets at once, though Vidrine is toast." he said and sighed gently.
"Make that six decisions that would have destroyed earth. But I'm a lieutenant colonel and I'm just saying Patrick's remark here right now, but is it possible you don't make colonel or general without knowing the dangers of making the big decisions right now. I've been doing that ever since we met the Tollan in and their eyes, and the sextet's, I'm ready for promotion and reassignment now." he said and they nodded as he went on.
"No you did exactly as you were supposed to do Sir, I was yanking reverse psychology and you all did exactly as you were supposed to do at that time. But I wasn't going back, that resignation was so I could get you to refuse and then keep up the charade till the effects wore off. But the attempt was not an attempt at the time back then, with Bra'tac giving information on the last rites system in their culture I chose on a human version."
"I was yanking the Jaffa last rites system and for them, so they lose their symbiote it puts them on the edge of getting sick. Draining that much blood does the exact same thing and it was enough to keep me here indefinitely till I was fully recovered, but they tried to yank me into a cult." he said and they nodded at the news as they exchanged furious looks at the news they just gained though just as Hammond said it then.
Another voice said it for him with a furious tone in his voice as he said it to him gently. "Alright now that we got the truth, in reverse order, regarding what happened and I wish that Ryan called me in at the beginning here as well so I could deal with it at the time. But the person who put you in that thing is in serious trouble and if he interrupted vital information, before we could hear it and before I gained it now as a host."
"Than the person that this started with is getting a severe black mark on the record right now." a new voice said and turned around to see General Jacob Carter walk into the room at that. "Sam may have followed orders, but Jack chose to run, it's his fault Jacob. Dad, this entire time I've been crossing him, it's because he did to me what Frank did to him at the time." He said and he nodded as she sighed at the news.
"You blame him for what happened back then?" she asked and he nodded. "Yeah I do, dad, Jacob, what I went through was nearly an exact duplication of his, right down to the aftermath of it. I'm just quoting Frank's words here, but he got hit, he went down, and I made a judgement call to the save the rest of the team. But in my way of thinking in Jack's case, it's and I saw him take off, metaphorically, and then I saw it."
"And then I saw 3 months of my life disappear in some stinking alien prison, in fact, if you'd just assigned someone else to the team after we got back, I could have spent the next eight weeks in recovery. But to get passed it, I had to take the chance, the chance of facing the memory. I did what he never had the stinkin' guts too and here's the damn result." he said and she nodded as Daniel sighed then as he looked at Jacob then.
"I've hated him ever since, and though he was my team leader, that was all there was between us after that, but you Lou, you were the last remaining piece to my original trio." he said and Lou nodded. "Charlie's gone, and I became your best friend after that, I listened to you and not even realizing it. I saved your life by getting you out of range before Ra showed up." he said and Daniel nodded as he rested his hand on his shoulder.
"So to you, he's no longer a friend, but my daughter, Janet and George still are?" Jacob asked him and he nodded. "Yeah, in truth Jacob, and I asked the general this already, but who's more of a match for her in your eyes?" he asked and he smiled softly. "You are, yes you don't have to say anything else, you've been in love with ever since we found the beta gate, right?" he asked and Daniel nodded as he looked at him gently.
"Yeah, and I thought of you as a father since we met, you're my mentor, you trained me yourself. Remember what you taught me when we found out Anubis was back. Everything you ever wanted me to learn about life in this job, I have now, I'm ready for that reassignment." He said and he nodded. "Selmak, are you part of the original batch?" Daniel asked him and his glowed for a second as the symbiote answered that.
"I am Dr. Jackson, the last time you saw me was when I was a baby, you and mother discussed this already, she loved you and you were her best friend. And to answer the unasked question here, is that the level you went through causes the same effects as one gets from being arrested for being passed the safety limit in drugs and alcohol and need to be brought in for treatment."
"What Colonel O'neill went through is enough to destroy your soul and never ever combine earth drugs with alien drugs and the sarcophagus or it causes the same effects one gets from a speedball effect or PCP. Everything you described to General Hammond and Dr. Frasier is exactly it." he said and they all nodded to him as he answered him, feeling his anger growing by the minute at the news.
"So I got it right, the entire inscription in this is that you don't use that thing, but when you do, you immediately get out of it to not be tempted to use it again. And mixing drugs and alcohol cause an adverse effect. And never combine sedatives with it or it causes a PCP effect?" Daniel asked and he nodded to him as he said it. "Yeah you got it right Danny, everything you just described to the trio is just it exactly at the moment."
"But the level you went through is enough to bring it out slightly, but it doesn't completely turn you to the darkside. In fact it's like a vulcan suffering from Bendii syndrome and the humans surrounding them are saying everything they'd never say when they're acting normal, when they're themselves. What you said to her that year, you read my mind, until she finds her exact match, she's never going to know."
"Just what love is and not until she winds finding her exact match, but the side effects are you say everything that's on your mind, the pain the anger, the resentment. It just comes pouring out of you, but as you were holding it in the amount of anger and hate, you just let it out, but you weren't talking to her. The effects of it act like that syndrome and this show was your sister's favorite set of tv shows and movies at the time."
"I think she forgot this particular episode at the time, because without outside influences regarding this. But it does drive a slight wedge till the influence is out of range and you just suffered that exact same thing son. You had no control over what you were saying because it unlocked the door on your emotions and they broke through its not your fault." Jacob said and they all nodded as they got it as Lou said it for all of them.
"That's what happened, he was referring to the fact that she had been hiding from listening to her feelings this entire time and she confided in him, regarding Hanson. Along with that is because he was feeling the amount of anger and hatred at the lunatic that attacked him. And her remark caused that anger to cause him to throw something on the table and in response he said that to her and she can't remember this episode."
"But every time he was looking for a way to get Sha're back she was thinking he was letting his heart do the talking and seven months of this resulted, after the exposure, a serious venting. And she forgot this episode as that syndrome nearly drove a wedge between the characters at the time. The sarcophagus unleashes the venting in the venting in the same way that Sarek's precense and emotions were causing."
"Alright that explains everything, everything you'd never say aloud, that you could never say and you just hold it in as it starts building in you. And is buried till you're exposed to the sarcophagus or are just exposed to a Vulcan suffering that disease. And once it does it comes pouring out like you were turned to the darkside, he just got a brief brush here." Lou said sharply and that did it as Daniel answered him as he let it out then.
"That's the cutoff now, you mean to tell me Jack interrupted in the middle of the message here. Jack could have gotten me killed because he interrupted the message at the time. Alright Sam is off the hook now here as well too, but Jack is in serious trouble and as to why now, his recklessness is the reason. And for why I ended up in that thing in the first place." he said and they crossed their arms as Jacob answered him at that.
"What happened exactly at the time, because with the fact I still do fieldwork for the base now, I'm treating this in the same way I was always with you during each away mission, once I got to know you guys." he asked and he sighed, knowing the two generals and three colonels were going to be furious. "Jack was aggravating the guards in the mines, till the shift ended and though we were chained together."
"And the guard unchained us, and he took him down and said to get out, but just as I was on my way to the front, one of the guards shot out the roof right above me with a staff weapon and I got caught in a cave in. Jacob, if Jumper ordered you to come here like a month previous at the time and you ordered me to do this. Than what's the recommendation here regarding the slave and miners in the caves?"
"I mean you're a general and you and General Hammond are our CO's, but you two have always been on a single mind about everything. And ever since we had you blended with Selmak?" he asked and Jacob sighed as he answered him. "If it meant the safety and physical, mental and emotional safety of everyone on earth and the mines. A simple three weeks won't kill them son, you made the right choice and with that in mind now."
"This wasn't your fault. If I'd known your parents were working at the museum in New York, as I was stationed out there at the exact same time. I could have prevented your parents accident, taken custody of you myself and you'd be my son. But you did exactly as you were supposed to at the time, no life is more important than the safety of the greater good now." he said to him and Hammnd nodded in agreement to his thoughts.
"Indeed and he's right, if Ryan told me what you were up to, I'd have said the same and that a simple three weeks wouldn't kill the duo. You did the right thing, by choosing to wait till Pyrus was on his last legs, before you came home. But he wants someone to blame for your friendship falling apart, he can blame us. But don't blame you for just following our orders and with that in mind here right now."
"There are a lot of things we do that we wish we could change and as sure as hell cant forget, but the whole concept of chain of command undermines the idea of free will, so as soldiers, you have to do some very awful stuff. But following orders like you were trained to. It doesn't make it any easier and certainly doesn't make it right. But it does put some blame on the man, or men give the orders right now."
"He wants someone to blame for your friendship falling apart he can blame us, but leave you out of it. So all this time I've really been following unspoken orders by Ryan, while he's been listening to the NID operatives, oh this is nothing to go down well when Sam finds out about this. Especially once you tell her what you just told us. Did Egeria tell you who the planet belong to?" he said and Daniel nodded as he sighed as he said it to him.
"Apollo ran that planet, and his underling was killed and conquered as I ended up learning we ended up infiltrating a facade and Pyrus killed the goa'uld that used to run that planet at the time. But to answer your question now, the damage done was 30 broken bones, 5 internal injuries, all the vital organs. And severe muscle and tissue damage, but the muscle deterioration was because I was still recovering at the time."
"The blow cut into my optic nerve rendering me blind in both eyes, and severe muscle and tissue damage, added side effects here was drug and alcohol withdrawal, sleep deprivation and the symptoms to go with it. All in all, everything that you read through when we got back was the very tip of the iceberg. And Bill has the added report with him regarding my recovery in rehab, but the first half of it now."
"The damage done here, on earth, would take ten months to recover from and I would have been like Conrad for the rest of my life. Had it not been for the technology dad." he said and they all nodded with a furious look as he went further then. "Yeah well it's a repeater here too." he said and Lou looked at him. "What do you mean Daniel?" he asked and he crossed his arms as he answered him at that as he said it to him.
"Jack's impulse on the flight or flight response has landed me in that thing twice in three years, Lou. You remember, back on Abydos, you all thought I was dead, and Ra brought me back. I took a staff blast for the idiot at the time, but here's the problem, with the fact I gained a tutorial in speaking their language I was able to prevent the missile from being launched?" he asked him and he nodded to him as Lou answered him.
"That's why you were MIA for three hours when Ra attacked, Sha're lead you straight to the cavern that had their history, or more accurately Ra's, but it foretold every Goa'uld in the galaxy. And then you found the six coordinates, but you needed the seventh to get us back. So by the fact I lost my temper, I just saved your life." he said and Daniel nodded "It happened again that day?" Lou repeated and he nodded to him firmly.
