Well I have finally finished this chapter and it has taken forever. There are many reasons but one main one is time and inspiration. There are a few scientific definitions in this chapter borrowed from Lehningers Principles of Biochemistry, 4th edition, Nelson and Cox. I don't own the Stargate characters only my own. Please read and review. Oh and all mistakes are my own I haven't been able to find an unfortunate soul to look for my errors for me. Also this chapter contains a large amount of bad language. if this offend don't read



Say something Ch4

We stand there in silence. Neither one of us know what to say. 'Ok say something, anything, geez since when have you not known what to say'. He breaks the silence.

"Not really the best outfit for me to meet my only daughter in is it?" I smile at him as he indicates to his hospital gown.

"It's not that bad, I'm sure I've wore worse" He laughs a warm laugh.

We fall in to silence again, John breaks that silence. "You know that they have Chocolate cake in the commissary" Both Jack and I turn to John then to each other. We both seem to have the same idea. I turn back to John only to find that he is no longer there. I must have a confused look on my face because Jack informs me

"He's gone to get me some passable clothes" I nod in response "So I guess you like chocolate cake to?"

"Nothing better, well milky bar buttons but hay we can't have it all"

"What about milky bar cake?" he adds.

"Yeah, you'd think wouldn't you but I tried milky bar ice-cream and it was just wrong. So I have decided that the buttons are the best and that you shouldn't mess with perfection" 'see you can still talk a load of crap when you have to'

"Really? More a beer and cake man myself" he's picking at the bedding. I spy a chair nearby a grab it.

"So they won't give you normal clothes to meet your daughter but they will let you go eat cake"

"Well their not exactly letting me go get cake I'm more making an executive decision"

' don't do it, don't do it, please don't do it' I take a breath to say something but I don't, I then another breath.

"Ok so you're not allowed to leave here?"

"Well I'm not supposed to … but….."

"Hey we have to get a move on the nurses are about to do their rounds" John hurries in passing Jack the bundle that he was carrying

"Wait, I'm sorry but if your not allowed to leave then maybe we shouldn't go anywhere" 'great you just met the man and your probably going to get him killed because you said you wanted cake. Wait I didn't actually say I wanted cake. Not the point. We could always get the cake brought in. Yeah that's a good idea that way if anything happens he's here where they can help him'

"Hey Izzy don't worry, the General is a lot harder to kill then he looks" they both chuckle. 'Shit is it that obvious what I'm thinking'

"I just don't want to make your condition any worse, we could always get cake brought here" I turn to him.

"Listen I have broken out of this joint way more times then I can remember" he grins at me the ducks behind a certain to change.

"Really Izzy no one can evade the nurses like the general" he tries to put me at ease.

"So why was he doing as he was told when I arrived?" I cross my arms over my chest.

" 'cause they threatened me, told me that if I didn't stay put then they would make sure that the only way I saw you was through a glass panel" he walks around the certain fully dressed.

"oooohhhhhhhh"

"So I had to play nice doggy till I got to get you alone, well you and my accomplice alone" he heads to the door but doesn't look that steady on his feet as maybe he should be.

"Ok right we can go" I try to put all the authority in to my voice that I posses "but you will go in a wheel chair is that clear?"

"I'm fine, I can walk"

"Well it's either the wheelchair or no cake" Johns now laughing.

"Yep, defiantly your daughter sir" he disappears for the second time that day but returns only a couple of seconds later with a wheelchair.

"Fine, fine, that cake had better be really good" Jack sits in the wheelchair provided by John.

"Lead the way Lt Colonel Shepherd" He tilts his head, and then moves towards the doors. I step behind the wheelchair and start to push. We walk to the commissary in relative silence which is only occasionally broken by various airmen. All of which find it funny that the infamous general has once again escaped the infirmary. I could see that there was a great deal of respect for this man in front of me, they had the same look that John had when he was trying to get me to help. We enter the commissary and find a table in the corner. It was occupied but as soon as we entered the occupiers transferred them selves to another table. We get settled.

"So cake or Jell-O?" Jack asks me.

"Well at first I would say cake but I think I saw a carrot cake back there so I will find out what the cake is before I make such a major decision"

"That's a good enough answer" Jack gets up to see what the cake is.

"Didn't mean to say that out loud did you?" Johns practically smirking.

"No. How'd you know?"

"It's defiantly chocolate" Jack informs us.

"Sweet, well then I think cake, what about you two"

"Cake" they say in unison.

"Sit Izzy I will get it, Leave you two to talk" then John disappeared again. There was silence again. This time I think that he wanted to say something to me but just wasn't sure at what to say.

"Listen ….. I just wanted to say thanks…..you know for coming here….you know when you didn't have to"

'Oooooh man what to say, preferable nothing that is going to be stupid.

"Hey it's not a problem" I say 'Awkward' "plus I got to leave the country" I grin at him.

"It's just that I would have …understood if you know …… you didn't come…….. It's not an easy thing to do help a perfect stranger" he picks at the table cloth.

"I almost didn't" ' woooooh way to be honest, oh please like I could actually lie to someone and them not know' I'm watching his face carefully, he didn't even flinch like he was already told that I almost didn't come.

"But you already knew that didn't you" still watching, his face didn't change expression.

"Would you like to know why?"

"Yes" It seemed like it was hard for him to answer. For some reason it felt like I knew this man.

"It's not a simple answer. Part of me thought that I was betraying my mum. Part of me was hurt that you never cared for me but expected me to come and help you when you needed it. I was angry. I never had a father. My mum was fantastic but couldn't substitute that. It hurt that you weren't there when things were hard. I thought that if you wanted nothing to do with me then I wanted nothing to do with you. Then again I also wanted to make something of myself so that if I ever met you I could say see I never needed you. See not a simple answer" I half smile.

"So what made you change your mind?"

"John is very persistent" I smile, so does he but there is not much humour in it.

"No the reason I reconsidered is because firstly john said that you didn't know about me till recently. Secondly, not sure I could have lived with myself if I had let the other half of me die without as much as a word. Finally you're a human being asking for help who am I to deny help if I can give it." 'Oooh wow sound like some women of off a cartoon who is just trying to do the right thing by her people, cheeeeeeesssssyyy'

John arrives with two pieces of cake. I pull myself together quickly.

"Oh it had better be you two sharing, I only share cake if it's the entire cake not a piece" he laughs but seems to realise that he just walked in to a pretty heavy conversation. "I actually have a few things to do so I will leave you in the very capable hands of the general and see you later" then he leaves.

"I don't share cake either" he says pulling the cake towards him possessively.

I smile again then silence. 'What if he doesn't like me anymore? Really, really you actually care if this man likes you, stupid'

"I'm sorry" I blurt out, he looks up.

"What for" he seems confused.

"Well sometimes I'm a little to honest for my own good, mum says sometimes I'm about as subtle as a brick to the head"

"Yeah your mum used to say that about me to"

"Must be genetic" I dig in to the cake

"So what's wrong with you?" I then shove a rather large piece of cake in my mouth to prevent me form saying anything else that's really stupid or hurtful.

"I have a DNA problem, I don't really understand it myself but apparently my DNA is unravelling" he says over his cake. Our relationship seems little awkward at the moment 'should I ask more questions or just let him tell me in his own time,

"They think that I was exposed to some chemical that is making me ill, they don't really know what it is though".

"So where do I come in?" It seems it's easier for him to be in charge, like if he guides the way then he can avoid and man holes.

"The Eggheads think that by using DNA from a blood relative then they may be able

to find out what the chemical is and get rid of it"

"I don't really understand"

"Hey kid welcome to my world. The doctor should explain it to you a lot better".

"I'm sorry to interrupt General but they are ready for you in Lab 3" we leave with the newly acquired airman.

Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

"Ah Miss James, I'm Doctor cloves. Would you please come in, sit on top of this bed and roll up your sleeve". A short, squat, red headed man commanded as I entered the room. I did as ordered.

"What hand do you Wright with?" he asked whilst looking at a vacuum sealed medical needle.

"Right"

"Give me your left arm; this should only hurt a little".

"Don't you think maybe you should tell her what you're going to do first?"

"Oh of course General" he faltered. "It thought maybe she would have already been briefed but as I can now see she has not" he looked putout. Jack rolled his eyes.

I just watched this little exchange not really knowing how I felt. It's not like I was afraid of doctors and I have given blood plenty of times for different reasons. This time I was worried and couldn't understand why. 'Pull yourself together you were fine 10 minutes ago. Didn't have a problem asking all the questions that come in to this little pea brain of yours but now nothing. It's like you've suddenly gone stupid. You're just sitting there swinging your legs like a child. Get a grip. You have a brain use it. Ask questions. Find out what's going on'. Someone's now talking to me and they sound a little annoyed.

"I'm sorry Miss James. I really thought that you would have been told about this earlier so that you could make an informed decision. If after my explanation you no longer wish to take part that will be your choice" he looks at Jack "is that clear". The words said that he was doing this for me but his tone and body language said I don't want to be here trying to help this idiot; I would must rather be as far away from these morons as I can get.

"Yes it's clear"

"The problem is …." the door opens, a man and women step in. The man is wearing normal clothes but the woman is obviously military.

"Carter, Daniel, doc here was about to explain what's wrong with me to my daughter"

"Daughter" they say in unison. From the looks on their face that was the last thing that they expected to come out of his mouth. Once again I have resorted to just watching and smiling at what is the appropriate time.

"This is the Issabella Kelly James" he indicated to me "and this Izzy is Lt Colonel Samantha Carter and Doctor Daniel Jackson" 'Uncomfortable'

"Hi it's very nice to meet you" I hold out my hand, Daniel seems to recover first and so steps forward to shake my hand. Carter snaps out of her daze half a beat after and proceeds to shake my hand. 'Man if I thought the atmosphere felt strange beforehand it go a whole lot stranger.

"So Doctor you were saying" I put in. As the attention is placed on the doctor it's obvious that Carter, Jackson and Jack did not like him. These feelings were more then mutual. So much so that because I was related to the main man I felt the brunt of it. It was nothing that he said, more his manor, he thought that he was better then me, better the Lt Colonel Carter, Doctor Jackson and Jack.

"Of course Miss James" a Fake smile. "The problem is with Brigadier General O'Neil's DNA. It is spontaneously denaturing" he turns to pick the needle back up. Showing that all the said before about my choice was crap.

"Now what DNA means is…"

"Ermm I know what DNA means" not sure how to approach that subject.

"I'm sure you think you know what this means, however my job is to keep you fully informed." 'And in the mean time make me feel stupid'

"Be a good girl and listen. Now as I was saying what this means is…" Now he's pissed me off. No one has the right to try and make people feel stupid. How dare he. Better people then him have tried and failed to make me feel that way. Dick. My turn to make him realise that you shouldn't judge people.'

"DNA is a polynucleotide that has a specific sequence of deoxynucleotide units that are covalently joined through the 3', 5- phosphodiester. It is the carrier of genetic information. DNA is in the form of a double helix" I take a breath then continue. "Denature- this is when the natural conformation of a polypeptide chain, protein or in this case nucleotides are lost" Everyone in the room is now staring at me. The doctor has gone completely red, the rest are looking at me in admiration. There is a slight uncomfortable silence so I start to speak again.

"So from what you have said my fathers DNA" 'got the father thing in there to piss him off' "are uncoiling. Well it would have to for the DNA to start denaturating and the hydrogen bonds to be destroyed. You also have the added problem of attack from the cell organelles and the environment" the doctor seems to have gotten past his problem and nods.

"Ok so that's what I know. What I don't know is why this is happening, what's causing this and how this can be stopped. I'm guessing though that you think that you will find something in my blood that will either help you determine what this thing is and cure it form there or my blood will help you determine how to reverse what happening." I stop and wait form my questions to be answered what I see is a little worrying. Luckily my brain has gone in to science mode so I can hide the worry a bit better.

"The problem is that we don't know that this thing is, we don't know how this is doing what it is doing to me. What we do know is that we have a piece of technology in our hand that could possible use your blood to prevent any further damage or reverse the damage"

"So what's this piece of technology and how does it work?"

"We got the technology from a good source but we don't know how it works exactly"

"You got it from a good source" a sceptical look crosses my face "you would have thought that this good sauce would have given you the instructions" Everybody exchanges a look. 'Ok maybe being flip wasn't a good idea, this is why your supposed to think before you speak, dinlow'.

"Miss James will you consent or not" he's sounding annoyed now. 'Good, if you're pissed show it don't be fake' my phone vibrates. 'Wow I get a signal down here. That's strange I generally can't get a good signal in my house and that's above ground'. I take out the phone and read the text. It's from Jake. 'Listen Izzy I'm sorry about what happened but I was justified. I just hope that you aren't reading this from his bed' I put the phone away and hold out my left arm. 'I can't believe he just. Really how dare him. What a tosser. Justified, JUSTIFIED. Complete and utter bastard. That Dickhead. I can't believe that he had the nerve WANKER'. My face must have been that of thunder because as John walked in, he walked right up to me, put his hand on my leg and said "what's happened?". I realise that he's there and that they are all staring at me so I fake a look of peace "Nothing why" 'ok so maybe being a little fake can help out' He doesn't look convinced.

"Well I'm here if you want to talk to me. Ok?" he says quietly. I realised that they had already extracted the blood so I was done.

"Hey erm I'm actually really tired is it ok if I lye down somewhere" they all seemed to understand. I was led to a room close to the infirmary and left alone.

Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxxoxoxoxoxoxoxxoxox

After a quick nap I felt restless so I paced up and down for 10 minutes then popped my head out of the door. There was an airman stationed just outside. As I left he simply followed me. I walked down one corridor but it looked the same as all the others. I come to what appears to be labs. The first 5 that I pass are all empty then the sixth one was occupied. The Arm man was leaning over a little blue ball. It was Lt Colonel Carter. The look on her face was pure confusion.

"Hope that that's not the thing that's going to save my" I startle her… She didn't expect to find me leaning against her door frame. I smile at her

"Oh no its not, not that I know exactly what it is" she seems to have recovered.

"Lost the instruction manual then" I say still at the door. "I hate it when that happens". She smiles at me like she sees something in me that she recognises.

"I think it has no power. We found it like this but we're not exactly sure what it is"

She's looking at the object. "If you look carefully it has markings on it that may be able to tell us what it is" She's distracting herself with the object. 'Wonder if she knows that she's doing that'

"Well it's very rude of whoever left it not to leave a note of how to use it. Does no one have manner anymore" I walk in to her lab, she hands me the ball 'wow not what I expected, she really isn't that good with people'. I'm looking at the ball when Daniel walks in.

"Hi"

"Hi Issabella, Sam" Sam smiles at him

"Is it ok for her to be handling that thing?"

"It's harmless, what ever it is"

"Still can't figure it out" He asks sympathetically.

"No" She picks up a mug and takes a sip.

"Has Jack taken a look?" there was more to the question then what was asked.

"Yes, he couldn't figure it out either" then there was silence. I look up to find that they are both looking at me. My hands start to feel hot.

"Has Thor finished yet?" 'Thor what is he a Norse god or something'

"Actually" Daniel starts. I look up they are still looking at me. Oh I just said that aloud' my hands are feeling hotter and I start to feel a little tired then dizzy.

"Issabella put the ball down" Carter orders. Shocked I instinctively start comply. I look at the ball in my hands it's now a yellow colour. Light is emitted out of four points in the ball. It then turns a purple colour. I put the ball on the table and it goes back to its original colour. "What just happened?" 'Man that was strange' the next thing I know Daniels swept me up in his arms and is carrying me down the corridor. We enter the infirmary. They quickly get me in to hospital gown and start to perform tests. No one is talking to me only over me. 'I have no clue what's going on' "Issabella" Daniel says to my right as they attach wires to me. "Don't worry everything is going to be alright" 'does he seriously expect me to believe that when everyone around looks panicked'. They continue to perform all the test that they feel are necessary after about half and hour I fall asleep.

Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxxooxxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

I wake to hear my father's voice not that far away. I hear him say. "How could you let her play with it?"

"I'm sorry Sir, I thought it was safe".

"I do not think that any damage has been done" added a male voice.

"Well she seems fine"

"Vala just because she seems fine doesn't mean that she is"

"Yes I know that Daniel I was just saying"

"Well don't, she may not be fine. She came here to help me and this is what happens"

"Jack, she is probably fine. The doctors haven't found anything"

"Yet. Daniel Yet"

I creep out of my bed and over to the office quietly, which is difficult at best. 'Being quiet is sooooo not my strong point'

"I can see you always look on the bright side" I startle them all. Jack was sitting behind then desk with his head in his hands. A tall man with a Gold Emblem in the centre of his forehead is standing beside him. Carter, Daniel and what must be Vala is sitting on the other side of the desk.

"I'm sorry that I called so much trouble" I turn to Carter. "See I told you that those people should have left an instruction manual near it" I half smile at her. "You know that if they had none of this would have happened. They are just rude" I get a smirk from Vala and a sort of smile from Carter.

"Are you guys ever going to feed me" 'changing the subject do you seriously think that that will ease the tension in the room'.

"Seriously tall dark and stoic over there is starting to look like a nice juicy stake and you three are the vegetable" I grin 'what's a girl got to say around here to get people to smile.

"You should be in bed" Jack starts to rise. They usher me back to bed. "We'll get some food sent down here".

"Now we should go and let you rest" they all followed him out of the infirmary leaving me alone.

The nurse brings me a tray of food, "thank you" 'At last, my stomach thought that my throat has been cut' I take a look, 'EEEWWWWWWWW, rare pork chops, lumpy gravy and rock hard carrots. What are they trying to do kill me' I push the tray aside.

'I could just sit here until they come back and ask then to get me an apple or something or I could go and get something myself' I pull the blanket off of my legs.

'It would cause too much trouble to have them bring me something else, getting it myself would be ok' I start to stand. I feel a little wobbly this time. I sit back down. 'maybe I shouldn't go anywhere I mean what would happen if they found me in a place that I'm not supposed to be in plus I don't feel that great, must be lack of food I haven't eaten in over 12 hours.' I look around 'Oh come off it, don't be a wuss you're not ill and you won't get caught. Stand up find some clothes then find some food, now' I some how manage to find some fatigues and make it to the lifts without anyone seeing me. The airman that was posted outside of the infirmary was at the end of the corridor chatting up a nurse. I press the button for the surface. Once that lift stops I step out and enter the other lift. The doors are about to close when a hand stops it. The doors open and John just steps through. "Where you going?" he asks

"To get food, you?" I shove my hands in the pockets of my stolen clothes.

"Saw you jumping in to the elevator, thought I would follow" he does the same. I nod

"The foods really bad here"

"Tell me about it the only good thing is Cake and Turkey sandwiches"

"Eeeeewwwww"

"What"

"Turkey, Really? I thought that you had taste" he steps forward and starts to tickle me, we both jump by his actions. 'Nooooooo, please don't stop' He takes a step back. "I'm sorry" he combs his right hand through his hair. 'What to say, what to say'

The doors open. He steps out, I follow. An Airman greets up suspiciously. I step forward "We wish to order takeout" I announce. "The food here is appalling" 'why hasn't he recovered yet'

"Lt Colonel?"

"Yeah, Chinese. That's what she wants"

'How did he know what I eat? Erm I don't know maybe he just recovered and it was the first thing that he could think of'. We ordered the food, waited for it come then headed back to the infirmary. Once I was situated he started to leave. "Are you going to let a girl eat alone?" I ask glancing up at him. 'Please don't leave me alone. Huh? Where the hell did that come from you love being alone' he changes his mind about leaving and sits on the end of the bed.

"So what happen earlier? Was it Doctor Cloves?" he asked picking up a tub of what turns out to be spring rolls.

"What do you mean" 'just act stupid maybe he will leave it alone, ACT stupid baby it's not an act. Fair play.'

"When I walked in to the lab you looked ready to murder someone, which considering the fact that you unfortunately got Doctor Cloves, I'm not surprised".

"No it was Doctor Cloves although he is a dick, he seems to have something against Jack and consequently because I'm related to him Doctor cloves seems to hold it against me to" ' ooooh good girl move the conversation in a new direction'

"Oh its not Just the General, Cloves doesn't like anyone who is involved with him for any reason. I think it's because O'Neil tends to breaks the rules for the safety of his people. Cloves is a "by the book" man all the way." There was a touch of admiration in his eyes when he spoke of Jack. I dig in to the food.

"So if it wasn't Cloves then what happened" Dame he does not give up does he.

"Jake"

"Jake?"

" He just sent me a incredible infuriating text message" I grabbed a spring roll and bit hard on it.

"Ok, let's change the subject" he looks at me and waits for me to nod.

"So how long have you done that for"?

"What eat?" 'Oh crap I said it out loud, think before you speak idiot' he's smiling at me. "No not eat that thing that you do. Ignore it, pretend its not there then deal with it once your alone" he's deadly serious.

"Since I can remember" 'why are you telling him this'

"Why"

"Because no body wants to be around a crying, hysterical shouting girl. Most people find it hard enough to deal with there own problems let alone the problems of someone else" I shrug like it's all so simple. Like I hadn't just told him my inner thoughts.

"Your right people find it hard dealing with there own problems but sometimes a guy likes to be the knight in shinning armour that rescues the girls from pain and heartache"

"So how do you know when to let that guy in and when not to." I get lost in his eyes, my voice sounds a little sad. "when your in pain how do you know that that guy is going to help you or hurt you more?"

"I guess you don't. It's a risk that you have to take" his voice had become softer. We sat in silence looking at each other. Then the silence was broken by a doctor.

"Ah miss James the test have all come back and you are fine. Which means that you are free to leave. If you feel any ill effects please come and see me immediately" then he walked off.

"Well I guess that means that I can leave. YAY" I got out of the bed. John stood and smiled.

"It's a good job that your ok I don't Carter would be able to live with herself if she inadvertently hurt you."

He walked me to the place that I called my room and left me there saying he had things that needed to be done.

I spent the first 10 minuets trying to think of how to respond to Jake then decided that not talking to him would piss him off more. I then went to the stack of paper work that was left on the desk. After a quick glance I realised it was the stuff that I signed when I came here. So I decided to read it. What a novel idea to read legal paper work. 4 hours later I had a fair clue what I have signed. Anything I saw there was classified. I pretty much wasn't allowed to speak to anyone about anything that went on here. Not that anything really interesting happened apart from the ball. There was however a couple of sentences that did not make sense to me like " any beings met in……." and " any life forms or their technology ……..". "what the hell, maybe John can explain. So I grab the paper work and head for the door.

"Hi erm I need to see Lt colonel Shepard, will you help me find him?" We wondered along a corridor down one floor. Then down another corridor. He stopped outside a room to see If john was in there. I heard Jacks voice then Johns in a near by room. I head straight for it. I walk through the door and started for Jack and John. " Hi sorry to interrupt but there was something that I wanted to ask you." I now rummaged through the paper work to find the sentences in question. Whilst walking towards them I walk straight past a little grey guy who seemed to actually be talking to my father. "Hi, sorry to interrupt" I say as I walk past him. The room has grown very quiet. I stop three steps later. ' what the hell'. I turn around and look down, "your not human" ' wow really intelligent thing to say there. Well done. I mean the Muppet awards go to ……….'

"Of course your not. Sorry". 'This should be freaking me out, it's not, just making me stupid'

"Well that explains what these to sentences mean." I say whilst holding the pieces of paper up. D' don't freak out its just an alien. Just an alien. Yeah coz we see them everyday don't we'. Then I turn to the little guy. " I'm Issabella Kelly James and you are?"

"I am Supreme commander Thor of the Asgard Fleet"

"It's nice to meet you" Then I turn to John and Jack. Both men look slightly amused.

"Ok I'm going to go now" I turn to leave but turn around again looking directly at Jack.

"You said earlier that the you didn't really know how the piece of the technology that was supposed to save you life work right?" he nods.

"Is that because it's alien"

"Yes"

"Is it Asgard technology" ' I hope to god that Asgard is the name of their people'. Then more to myself. " if it's alien technology then it wouldn't be keyed to our physiology therefore it may not work the way that it was suppose to work as it would on the Asgard" I started to tap every finger on my left hand twice on my left thumb . It's a nervous thing but something that helps me think. "Wait, if you have one piece of alien technology then you may have more" No one spoke. They seemed to know that I needed to figure this out for myself. "That would explain the little blue ball and all the panic that it caused" I stopped and looked up. Then I realised that it was not only Jack, John and Thor that was in the room. There was Daniel, Sam and a man called Teal'c . Not really having anything else to say so I stay silent, unusual but hay it happens. "Well we have some good news for you. Your blood was the key to curing me" As he said this he looked a little sad even though he was going for happy. "That's Fantastic" I said obviously glad that was not about to die. "Did they find out what was actually going on?" I asked curious.

"Didn't really ask, was just happy to be alive" Then smiles again. "Well I guess that means that you will be heading back to the England ?" The sadness had returned to his voice. ' does he actually want you stay a little longer'.

"Yeah I suppose so, but I don't have to go straight away" I say then look at him " I mean we could maybe spend some time getting to know each other I don't have to be back for another 12 days. But we don't have to if you don't want to I can go on the next flight" ' Did I want to cram anymore in to that sentence, maybe if I breathed it would help. No it wont its not the lack of oxygen that's making me like this its nerves.'

"Hey I have a Cabin that has, you know a lake with no fish but fishing." he looked hopeful. "It doesn't have to be just you and me the whole gang can come, that way you can escape if you need to" I feel a little bit more secure.

"That sounds great, cant wait. Are we going to leave today?"

"Maybe would be best if we left tomorrow morning. I will go and make the arrangements." With that said everyone started to leave the room.

"Thor can I ask you something?" A thought had popped in to my head. He inclines his head in agreement.

"It was only yesterday that he was gravely ill. Is he alright? I mean he has recovered really quickly. shouldn't it take time to get his body back in to the flow of things" I take a breath to collect my thoughts. Thor just stands there patently.

"What I'm trying to ask is should he really be up and about so soon after".

"Although our technology is not designed for human physiology I was able to reconfigure the data to allow usage for humans. O'Neil is now as well as he was before"

"Thank you" He inclines his head again. He moves as id he is about to leave.

"Thor may I ask you another question?" Again he agrees without words.

"Why did that little blue ball do what it did when I held it but did nothing with anyone else." I lean back to perch on the table behind me.

"That is not a question I know the answer to. I can tell you that the object is merely a child's toy and will do you no harm. I must leave now." With that and another incline of the head a white light enveloped him and he was gone. I left the room to find John standing there obviously waiting for me. He walked me back to my room. I was deep in thought and so did not speak to him all the way there. I step in to the room and he followed. He evidently wanted to talk.
