Hey guys!

Okay, so, I'm having a rush o' thought, and I just might update again. I can't help it! Kat's calling!

Right, D/C: Not mine, if it was I'd have killed some people in very nasty ways, some people would never retire, and Daniel would NEVER HAVE CUT HIS HAIR!! I know, it's a sign of character development, but it was so cute! He looked great!

You should know that this is just before they go off world for the first time as a team w/Kat and the ittalics are flashback-ish of the day before, during the meeting, and after as Sam shows Kat around. Think of them as those cheese black & white shots where everything is blander then usual.

Please review?

Kat pondered over her team mates while showering in the locker room.

"Hello, Kat." The Colonel shrugs. "How's it goin'?"

"Ok, so far." His face was weary, lined with impatient patience.

Jack O'Neill. Lost his son to the accident that is a gun in the house. Kat never kept guns in her house, afraid one day she just might feel the need shoot herself. Not the best way to attone.

"Hi, Captain Samantha Cater. Just call me Sam."

"Sure!" Kat shakes her hand vigerously.

"I'm just glad you're a girl!"

"I bet!" They laugh. "Now we're two! Even ups the team a bit!"

Samantha Cater. A week ago she was also Jolinar. It hurt her when the Ghoul'd saved her life. Kat could see a little terror still locked in her eyes. Could Sam see the terror in her new companion's eyes?

"It is a pleasure to meet you KatalinaForest." Teal'c inclinded his head.

"Charmed." Forest's smile grows. "It's good to finally meet you Teal'c."

Teal'c. A Jaafa. The only one Kat felt like she already knew a little. A brave man, who'd stop at nothing to save his people. Was that a good thing? Kat had been that way, and look what happened. But he was also kind. She wasn't quite sure about her own kindness.

"Hello Miss. Forest-"

"Please!" The happy look in her eyes seems to grow at the sight of Dr. Jackson. "Call me Kat."

"Uh, Kat then."

Daniel Jackson. He'd been watching her before. Most likely he noticed the way her friends centered around her. Something about him made her heart skip half-a-beat the first time he spoke to her. Jackson startled her. No one startled her, ever! Not even when she was little. Kat never jumped at loud noises. This man was something else.

Kat guessed she was holding something from herself as yet. Her mind had a way of doing that, tricking her until... It all came out. In one, painted red splat when thing started tumbling out of her mouth that made her selfish again. When she got selfish, Kat usually didn't recover for years at a time. The punishment for being the eldest child, she supposed.

So something was up with Daniel Jackson.

"This is the locker room." Sam gestures with her hand at double doors

"Co-ed?"

"Yup."

"Of course."

Of course. No privicy. Kat sighed at the memory as she tried to reach her towel without exposing herself.

"And this is your room." The door Sam opened lead to a shadowed, plain room. "You and Miss..."

"Alison? Ellie Alison?"

"Yes! You and Miss Alison will be bunking here when your on duty." She paused. "Or is it-"

"I know what you mean, Sam." Captain Carter had insisted , much like she did, on being called by her first name. "Clocked in." The blonde furrows her eyeborws.

"Is something wrong, Kat?"

Kat had shook her head, but now asked herself the question again. Is something wrong Kat? Turning off the water and toweling dry behind the safety of the olive drab curtain, she twisted cascades of water out of her hair.

O'Niell, Carter, Teal'c, Jackson. The cheerful mood that had come with the morning had vanished into thin air.

She had a feeling they didn't like her.

A spider was standing on her neatly folded uniform. The woman flicked it off without a care. It landed on an airman's back, and five minutes later, he would be panicking. Kat had the impression she should be out by then.

The last item she put on was her shirt. once her sodden head popped out, her body drooped. On the bench, looking innocent enough, were a few leaves. Poison Ivy. Stupid, petty pranks.

Yeah, they didn't like her. Or at least, someone didn't like her. It was the heels. DAMN! She should have paid attention to her footwear!

As she walked away to the sudden yells of airmen, she pulled a leaf out of her bra.

Maybe she should just stick to changing in her room.

Ok, so ta for now! Cookies for reviews!
