Chapter 1

Returned

"Little child, be not afraid. The rain pounds harsh against the glass, like an unwanted stranger. There is no danger. I am here tonight…" a ghostly soft voice rang out in the rain. Vala ran faster, searching for the source of the voice. She ran to the windows of each house, seeing if anyone was there.

"Help! Please! Who are you?" she screamed as she stumbled into the mud. Vala looked up to find herself now in a forest, the dark houses gone now just a clear path to a clearing. The shadow of a woman could be seen leaning against a tree in the middle of the clearing. Her face seemed to be blackened out.

"Vala."

Vala shot up from bed caked with sweet and her face still tingling from tears. Wrapping her arms around her trembling body she tried to shake the feeling that something horrible was happening but couldn't. Lifting her sore body from the bed she blindly made her way to the bathroom.

"Who…was she?" Vala asked herself as she stripped of her pajama's dropping them on the floor. "Oh god, forget about it Vala it was just a dream! A silly dream," she said huskily trying to calm herself as she looked in the mirror to see herself pale, a shadow of the women she usually was. "Just a dream…right?"

Stepping into the shower she turned the hot water on letting it scold her. The hot water cascaded down her body washing the physical remains of the dream away.

"Okay, so the planet that were going on seems to have no sign of life or Ori landing. So, were just going there as a routine check and see if there is anything that could lead to a weapon," Mitchell drawled as Vala came running into the room panting. Causing Daniel to raise and eyebrow.

"So Vala, you decided to join us today" Landry said sternly glaring at Vala for a moment. "Now, your team will be leaving at 1100 hours. Dismissed, and Jackson fill in Vala."

"So Daniel," Vala sat beside him, "where are we going to day? Ori infested planet? Hunting Bol's?"

"Routine mission, just checking for any information."

"Oh, well…that's good I guess but a girl needs some excitement in her life." She plastered on a fake smile and got up. "I'm going to go get ready, eat some breakfast. Join me?"

"Translations to do, see you at 1100 hours." Daniel smirked and walked out.

Vala stood beside Daniel in the gate room as the Stargate activated, she grinned nervously and looked up at Daniel. Smiling down at her he grabbed her hand for a moment and gave her a reassuring smile. Her heart sped up with the simple contact making her more confused then nervous.

"Okay, move out!" Mitchell yelled and led them to the Stargate. As Vala stepped through blackness surrounded her for a moment.

"Stay away, Vala."

Stepping out of the Stargate they were met with signs of destruction and the sight of a village in the distance. Vala looked up at the gray sky and a drop of rain landed on her cheek.

"Looks like a storm is going to start soon, we should get to the village as soon as possible" Sam said as she looked at Mitchell to confirm.

"Indeed," Teal'c said and started walking toward the village.

"You heard the big guy, lets go!" Mitchell laughed and motioned for them to follow. Vala matched her pace with Daniel and walked at his side.

"Daniel…" she whispered and looked at him for a moment.

"Yeah?" he said as is face changed to one of concern.

"Nothing…sorry." As she started to speed up the skies seemed to open and the rain began to come down hard.

SG-1 walked into the village looking at each house trying to find the most inhabitable. Vala looked around trying to shake the feel of familiarity but could. These houses were real but the ones she remembered were ghosts. As they reached the end of the line of houses they found the one they were going to stay the night at. The building had four floors making it towering above all the others. The windows were boarded up and the front door was ajar.

Pushing the door open they rest of the way they all stepped in as a clap of thunder was heard matched with a flash. Everyone fumbled for the their flashlights and started looking around the floor they were on.

"Looks like the village royalty lived here," Mitchell said as he scanned over the expensive things draped in dust.

"What I want to know is what happened to the villagers," Sam said as they walked into the living room. Vala walked to the far side spotting a grand fireplace.

"This looks like a good enough room to stay in" Vala said as she motioned everyone to the fireplace. "Looks like there's still some firewood here, it should last us till the rain stops." Soon the fire illuminated the room. Vala got up and brushed herself off inspecting the room. What used to be fine linens surrounded her. The room was dark woods and reds. Familiarity came over her again as she touched a display of items. Picking up a silver picture frame she whipped off the broken glass only to find the woman's face had been torn out.

"So, who gets the couch?" Mitchell said as he sat down causing dust to come up around him. Vala walked past him with a ghostly expression staring at the photograph in her hand.

"I guess, someone didn't like this woman," Vala whispered touching the remains of the picture fondly. She shivered as she got the feeling she once knew her. "Its that damn feeling again…" she hissed.

"What feeling?" Daniel asked as he walked towards Vala to stand beside her to look at the picture.

"On our way here…I can't explain it. It feels so weird." She looked away and started watching Sam unpack one of the bags.

"We will have some food in a moment, Vala. You okay?" Sam said as she looked up at her, sensing distress in the ex Space pirate.

"Yeah, I'm fine…" she put on a fake smile for everyone but no one fell for it.

"Looks like someone was trying to cover something up here," Mitchell said as he got off the couch and walked to the fireplace and inspecting the drapery above the fireplace. Grabbing the drapery her pulled it down causing a cloud of dust, when it passed he looked up at a large paint. "Um, guys…look at this." They all turned and looked up their breath being caught in their throats.

"Oh my god…" Daniel whispered.
