The gate opened to severely mountainous terrain, as the MALP had shown. There didn't appear to be any civilizations nearby, but the MALP had spotted a ring platform near the gate. The day was grey, with a light drizzle on the air, the clouds low and billowing. Sam turned to comment on it to Cam but he was already on his way towards the rings.

She followed quickly, scanning the area for threats. They approached the rings soon after, immediately beginning to search for a way to activate them. After fifteen minutes of searching, they still couldn't find the control panel. Cam turned to Sam with a discouraged expression.

"Well, what do ya think? Search the area and then call it quits?"

Sam was about to agree when she noticed something glittering within the rings.

"Hey, what's that?" She asked and made her way into the rings. Cam followed her and they both bent over to look.

Before they knew what happened, the rings had activated and they were both caught in their energy. A moment later, they were deposited on a hard stone floor in the center of a perfectly circular room. Cam rose quickly, scanning the circumference and then making his way to the edge of the room so he could see everything, his gun held up. Sam did the same on the other side. When no one appeared, they relaxed slightly.

"So," Cam projected across the room. "What do you suppose just happened?"

Sam shrugged. "I don't know. Either someone activated the rings, or whatever was in the middle of the circle was the activator."

"And where do you suppose here is?"

Sam raised her eyebrows and shrugged. "Your guess is as good as mine."

They took a moment to observe the room they were in. It was perfectly round, with the rings in the very center. The floor appeared to be made of tan, polished stone and the walls were made of similar material. There was no carving or designs of any kind on the walls and the ceiling created a dome above them. There were four matching outcroppings spaced equidistance from each other around the top of the wall, before the dome started.

"Options?" Cam called.

Sam shrugged again and dropped her weapon, relaxing slightly. "I don't know. I mean, no one has appeared and there have been no threats on us. It seems right now like we activated the rings on our own. So, that means we have to find a way out."

Cam nodded. "All right, we'll start searching the walls for the control panel, right?"

Sam nodded, turning around. "Trace the wall. Look for any unusual lines or panels that might come open."

They both began their move around the room, tracing the wall with their hands. Sam couldn't seem to find anything out of the ordinary at first. As they made their way closer to each other, Sam began to feel a strange sensation, almost like a tingling feeling, in her stomach and her fingers. She shook it off, thinking she was dehydrated or getting a head ache, but it continued to get worse.

Not far from her, Cam was feeling the same symptoms but with more intensity.

They suddenly found that they were next to each other and their hands brushed. Sam pulled hers away quickly, muttering a short 'sorry' before looking up into Cam's blue eyes.

Both of them seemed to pause for a moment as they connected, the blue on blue sparking something that wasn't there before. Sam felt her heart beat faster and she had to remind herself to keep breathing. Cam also felt his mouth open slightly as he looked at Sam, thinking about how beautiful she was. His mind in a muddy haze, he almost felt like something else was controlling his body. He reached out one hand and brushed it across her face.

Something sparked then, something intense, and they both came together in a crash of lips and body, their P-90s clanging together between them. Sam clung to him, kissed him deeply, with need and hunger. There was no thought of anything else except what they were doing. Cam also kissed her with a passion he'd felt since they had met all those years ago. She had never been his, always Teal'cs, but he had always wished.

He unclipped his gun and let it fall to the floor, Sam following suite. With little gentleness, he pushed Sam against the wall and deepened the kiss, feeling her body under his.

Sam drank him in, almost feeling like she'd had too much wine. Her head buzzed with a fuzziness that hadn't been there before, her body tingling. Feeling lightheaded, she pulled away and Cam immediately went for her neck, making her inhale sharply in response.

Even with Cam still kissing her, pulling away seemed to clear some of the muddiness in her brain and she tried to push him away. Her arms, it seemed, wouldn't respond to her direction so she tried harder.

"Cam," she managed to say, but it came out more of a moan than anything else, which only served to encourage him. She briefly felt herself fall again into that muddy haziness and she knew the only thing that would save her was thinking of Teal'c.

"Oh God… Teal'c…" She muttered it lightly and then placed his image firmly in her brain. As it grew more present, the haze seemed to clear and she was finally able to muster the will power to push Cam away.

When she finally did, he stepped away a distance and she looked at his breathless form, his expression confused. They looked at each other for a moment and then Cam came towards her again. She quickly slid along the wall so he didn't gain on her. Still breathless, she shook her head.

"Teal'c."

That seemed to cut through a little of what Cam was feeling and realization dawned on his face.

"Hell… What were we doin'?"

Sam shook her head, shaken. "I don't know. I'd like to say it's some weird alien device that's making us… you know… but," she paused, taking a deep breath. "But I don't know if I can entirely blame it on that."

Cam looked at her and nodded, raising his hands in a gesture of surrender. "Can I approach you? I swear, no touching this time."

Sam nodded and Cameron walked over to her. With every step, Sam could physically feel the increase in attraction, the pulsing of energy through her veins. When he was five steps from her, it was all she could do to keep from jumping him. One step later, she was doing just that.

Cam caught her in his arms and this time it was him against the wall. They kissed for a moment and then it was Cam who managed to push Sam. They stared at each other from the distance they had staggered away.

"What-the-HELL- is going on?" Cam asked slowly. Sam just stared at him, trying to ignore the tingles she was still feeling.

"I really have no idea. I mean… didn't it feel like the closer we go to each other the more we were attracted to each other? Almost like magnets?"

Cam raised his eyebrows. "What so we got a… human magnetizer?"

Sam let out a shaky laugh and then shook her head. "No, I don't think it's that simple."

Sighing, Cam said, "Well WHAT then?"

Taking a moment to think, Sam pointed to the middle of the room. "You go sit there."

He gave her a funny look but then did what she asked, moving to the middle of the room. Sam felt the tingling lessen even more.

"Is it just me or does that feel a little better?" Sam looked at him in question.

He nodded. "Yeah, a little… wish it felt MORE better though."

Ignoring him, she started going over the edge of the room. "I'm going to keep looking for panels. Theoretically, if we keep away from each other, we should be able to avoid… uh… any further entanglements."

With a sigh, Cam sat down on the hard floor. "Yeah… right…"
