O'Boy part 9
"Carter, there is a device in the lab inside that did this to us. Get it and take it back to the SGC and start working on a way to reverse this."
"Yes sir." Sam took off behind Colonel Reynolds into the building.
"Jack?"
"Yes Daniel?"
"Um…how are we going to get you back the mountain?"
"Let Sheppard and I try on our own first. If that does not work, I guess you are going have to call for a patty wagon," he smirks at his joke. "Do you have any suggestion since this is more your field of expertise."
"Well…I guess you could try to focus on one particular area of the mountain tell your self to go there, but I suggest that we call Elizabeth first."
"Good idea. That way if it works no one, hopefully, will freak if we succeed," said Jon who seems to be taking all of this in stride.
"Go ahead, Daniel, call Weir."
As Daniel was putting the call though, Sam came out of the building with the device on a cart. From the looks of it, it was still on. "Carter, why is it still on?"
"I thought it was best if we left it on just in case it might harm you more. There seems to be an energy reading strong enough to run all of SGC, and if we try to unplug it, as it were, it may do more harm than good. I definitely need to study this and I am going to need Daniel's help with the translation."
Daniel had just hung up the phone with Weir and heard the last part and said, "No problem. It looks to be Ancient." Daniel turned back to Jack and Jon, "Weir said they are ready and if you would both try for the gate room."
"Good. Well, campers get this stuff back to the SGC and hopefully we will meet you there."
Jack looked at Jon and gave a smile and Jon nod his head in agreement to the unspoken question. The two glowing individual closed their eyes and appear to concentrate.
While everyone gathered around to watch, they began to notice that the two forms were beginning to fade. When all of a sudden Jack and Jon opened their eyes in surprise, and appear to be in a panic.
"O'Neill?" Teal'c came forward to see if he could discern the problem.
"Daniel! The others! They are trying to pull us away."
"Don't let them. Both of you need to keep concentrating on the SGC. Do not let them take you."
Jon was starting to get pulled and Jack reached out with a tentacle and entwined it with one of Jon's. The struggle was an enormous strain on both of them. You could see it in the visible face in the center of their glowing bodies.
Daniel pulled out his phone again and called Weir back to get feedback on whether or not Jack and Sheppard make it to the SGC.
Jack and Jon struggles looked to be intense and they were starting to look a bit distorted, like they were being pulled into many directions. When finally, there was nothing. Both just vanished. One minute they were there struggling and the next they were…gone.
"Jack!"
"O'Neil!"
"Sir!"
All three of SG1 called out when they realized that they were gone. Then Daniel remembered he had the phone in his hand. "Elizabeth? Are they there?"
There was a long pause and everyone waited with baited breathes. Then Daniel heard the words, "No, Daniel, they are not here."
