Chapter four
Six years later, Sam had two sets of identical triplets. The first set was all girls, and they had brown eyes and brown hair. Since Pete was away when Sam gave birth to them, she named them Grace, Janet and Jackie.
Then three years later, Sam gave birth to three identical boys, who she named Jonathan (Jon for short), George and Jake. When they were a year old, Sam was promoted to full Colonel. The war was over with the Goa'uld at long last and now the jaffa could return home.
It was just after Peter and Sam's sixth wedding anniversary when Sam found out she was pregnant again. Pete wasn't happy about it and he walked out of the door and didn't return till two weeks later.
"Sam, why are you doing this to me? You know we just manage to make ends meet and now, another baby on the way. What were you thinking?"
"Pete, you damn well knew I was taking the injection. I would have told you what happened, but you just walked out the door without letting me finish!"
"Well then, what happened?" They were yelling at each other.
"The SGC received a bad batch of drugs, and I'm not the only one who is pregnant. Four others from the base also ended up pregnant!"
"Well, I want you to get rid of it!" Sam stood there in shock hearing what Pete wanted her to do.
"No, I'm not getting rid of this baby!"
"Yes, you are!"
"No, I'm not!"
They were still yelling at each other. Then he backhanded her, which caused her to fall and hit her head on the edge of the coffee table. She was still cognizant.
"I'm keeping the baby!"
"No, you're not!"
He was so angry, he went to kick Sam in the stomach. She saw it coming and rolled over and he got her in the back. Then she managed to get on her hands and knees. He trid to kick her again, but she was able to stop him with her arm.
Then she got up and he backhanded her again, so she hit him. At the same time he punched her in the stomach, which made her keel over onto the floor holding on to her stomach while in shock. Then he kicked her in the lower stomach.
"Now I hope you lost the kid!" Then his cell phone rang, so he went to answer it, then he returned.
"I'm needed back at the station. See you when I get home," He walked out the door leaving Sam there on the floor. Her kids ran over to her.
"Mummy!" They got down on their knees with tears in their eyes.
"Get my phone Grace!" Sam said weakly.
"Mummy, we can help you save the baby!"
"Grace, you can't!"
"Mummy, Jackie, Janet and I can! Trust us! Help me roll mummy on to her back!"
They rolled Sam on to her back and moved her arms. She was still in pain. She saw her three daughters put their hands onto her lower stomach and close their eyes. She started to feel the pain going till it was gone. They were like that for a minute, then they opened their eyes and moved their hands. Sam's eyes were starting to close.
"Don't worry mum, the babies are ok!"
"Call a medical team!" Then she lost consciousness.
"What do we do?" Jon asked.
Grace got up and she went to Sam's bag and got her cell phone out and she looked up Daniel's phone number then pressed 'call'.
"Uncle Daniel will know what to do!" Then she listened to the ringing and waited.
"Hello?"
"Uncle Daniel, it's Grace, mummy's hurt!"
"Grace, why what's wrong?" Daniel started to worry when he heard what Grace said about Sam.
"Daddy beat up mummy, he wanted her to kill the baby!"
"What, Sam's pregnant?" He said in shock.
"Yes, daddy wanted her to kill it, she wouldn't. He beat her up!"
"Ok, Grace. I'm on my way with a medical team. Where's Pete?"
"He got a phone call and he left."
"Ok, I'm on my way, just get a blanket and put it over Sam to keep her warm, ok?"
"Ok! Please hurry!"
"I will!" Then he hung up and she did the same.
"Jackie, Janet, help me get a blanket for mummy! Uncle Daniel is coming with medical team!"
They ran upstairs to their parent's room and got a quilt from the bed and they dragged it down stairs and pulled it over Sam. They sat down next to Sam and waited.
When Daniel got off the phone, General Hank Landry walked into Daniel's lab with Teal'c behind him.
"Sir, we need a medical team at Sam's place!" Daniel got up from his chair.
"Why?"
"Pete's beaten Sam up, Grace just called. Sir, did you know that Sam is pregnant?"
"No!"
"Well it looks like she might lose it. Pete beat her up cause he wanted her to get rid of it!"
"How do you know this?"
"Grace said that Pete wanted Sam to kill the baby, and she must have said no and so he decided to do it for her!" Both Hank and Teal'c were shocked.
"Go, and you can give a full briefing when you return. Teal'c go with him!"
"Thanks sir, what about the kids?"
"Bring them here!"
"Thanks, come on Teal'c!"
They ran out of his lab while Hank went to the phone and called to have a medical team go to Sam's house. When finished there, he called the control room and got them to send a message to the Tok'ra to ask for Jacob. When finished, he walked down to the infirmary to see Dr. Brightman to find out if it was true about Sam being pregnant.
Fifteen minutes later they heard voices outside and a door opened.
"Grace, Jackie, Janet?"
"In the living room, Uncle Daniel" Grace yelled out.
They walked quickly down to the living room and were shocked to see Sam's bruised face.
"Come here you guys! Are you ok?"
He and Teal'c crouched down and they all went into their open arms while the medical team looked Sam over.
"We're worried about mummy!"
"Don't worry, everything is going to be ok!"
They saw the medical team put Sam on a backboard and strap her down, then put a blanket over her before taking her out of the house.
"I want to be with mummy," Jake said.
"Jake, listen to me, ok, all of you! You will see Sam, but first, why don't we go upstairs and pack a few things? You're going to be on the base for a few days while your mummy's there!"
"I want to go now!"
"Jake, we will! I'll promise you that, once we get few things, then we go! The sooner we do, the soon we can go, ok?"
"Ok!"
"Come on, let's go upstairs!" Then they heard foot steps and turn around and relaxed.
"Hi guys, what's going on?" Cassie walked into the living room.
"Cassie, can you go and pack a few things of Sam's?"
"Daniel?" Cassie was confused.
"Teal'c, can you take the kids upstairs and help them pack a few things?"
"Come on children, the sooner we pack, the sooner you can see Colonel Carter!" Teal'c followed the kids upstairs.
"Daniel, where's Sam?" Daniel stepped forward and put his hands onto her arms.
"Cassie, Pete beat Sam up!" Cassie's eyes went wide in shock.
"How is she?"
"The medical team left a few minutes ago to take Sam to the SGC… Sam's pregnant and Pete wanted her to have an abortion!"
"Sam said no, didn't she?"
"Yeah!"
"Oh, no!" She went into Daniel's arms and he stroked her back.
"Cassie can you... ah… pack some clothes for Sam?" She pulled back.
"Sure, can I stay on the base?"
"Sure, come on! Let's go and give Teal'c a hand!"
"Ok" They both walked upstairs and helped pack a few things, then they left to go to the SGC.
When they arrived, they took their bags down to Sam's quarters, then they went to the infirmary. Daniel went in to find out what was going on when he saw Jacob using the healing device over Sam. When finished, he turned to see Daniel standing there.
"What happened?"
"I don't know all the details, but from what Grace has told me, Sam is pregnant." He looked at Jacob and waited for his reaction.
"I know, Hank told me."
"Oh! Well, Pete wanted Sam to have an abortion, she said no and this is what happened. From what Grace told me, she and the others saw Pete beat her up. She hit him a couple of times, but he kicked her when she was down and punched her before he got a phone call and left!"
"That bastard! If I ever see him!"
"Jacob!" Daniel interrupted.
"What?"
"Dad?" Sam said. He looked down.
"Sam, you're going to be ok, kiddo!"
"My baby?"
"Don't know!"
"I'll get Dr. Brightman, plus someone else. Well, six kids miss their mommy!" Daniel said smiling.
"Where are they?"
"Outside, I'll go and get them." He went to turn around.
"Daniel, something else happened at home before I lost consciousness which concerns the girls." Daniel step forward till he was close to the bed.
"Sam?"
"They saved my baby's life!"
"What do you mean?"
"When I was in pain, they rolled me on to my back and put their hands onto my stomach and closed their eyes for about a minute. When they opened them and moved their hands, Grace said that the babies are ok. Then I just came to, just now." Daniel looked at Jacob then back down at Sam.
"Sam, are you're sure?"
"Yes!"
"I'll be right back," Daniel said. Then he walked out of the room.
"Sam, I've never heard of or seen someone who could do that with out some sort of healing device."
"I have, when Bra'tac was stabbed, Colonel O'Neill did what my girls did to me but how can they…?" Then her eyes widened.
"Sam!" Then Daniel and Dr. Brightman walked in and over to the bed. The doctor was pushing the ultra sound machine over to the bed and she plugged it in.
"Colonel, are you ok?"
"Yeah!"
"Well, let's see if everything is ok here, shall we?" The doctor put some gel over Sam's stomach and put the rod over it.
"Well, everything looks good, but you're carrying triplets again!"
"Again?"
"Yes!" She showed Sam the screen where she could see three heartbeats, then she relaxed.
"At least I know that they are going to be ok."
"True, but I want to keep you in here for few days!"
"Sure!"
"Ok, is there anything you need?"
"Yes, my kids!" The doctor smiled.
"Sure, I'll let them know."
"Thanks!" Then she packed everything up and wheeled the trolley out of the room.
"Sam, how far along are you?" Daniel asked.
"Ten weeks."
"Ok." Then the door opened and they all turned to see Sam's six kids walked over to the bed.
"Mummy, are you ok?"
"Yes, and the babies are going to be just fine!" They all smiled.
"So, we're going to have more brothers, cool," Grace said. They looked at her.
"Grace, how do you know that they are going to be boys?"
"I saw their thing that us girls don't have, down here!"
She point to her crotch. Daniel raised an eyebrow. Jacob looked at Grace in shock and Sam tried not to laugh, then Jacob decided to let them know that he was there.
"Hi, kids!"
"Granddad!" They ran around to where he was and he crouched down to give them all a hug.
"How are you six doing?" When he looked at them.
"We are fine grandad, just worried about mummy!"
"Well, she's going to be ok."
"We know!"
"How do you know, Jackie?"
"Cause she's smiling!"
"Smart girl!" Daniel said.
They talked for a few minutes till Sam was falling back to sleep again, so Jacob and Daniel took the kids out of the room for a while.
"Grandad, I'm hungry," Grace said.
"Well, it is past your dinner time. Come on, let's go and get some dinner!"
They walked down to the mess hall where they got some dinner.
