Chapter 11- Bray'tac

I stood there; Aphosis had a member of the Tau'ri and was under light guard it had taken time to get Klorel to relax enough so I could escape to the Tau'ri but I had done it. Teal'c and his friends could rescue her. He walked unchallenged to the Stargate marvelling nobody had questioned his part in Teal'c's escape. It just showed how arrogant the Gould was in their God ship to not even consider the possibilities of traitors in their mist.

I entered the glyphs into the gate the guards letting me, I remembered what Daniel had said about a protective covering so through some stones into the wormhole in a tune only Teal'c would recognise. Then I stepped through the gate hoping luck was on my side and I re-emerged.

Coming through I was faced with an armed battalion of Tau'ri guards. I held my hands up hoping they wouldn't shoot as Teal'c and O'Neill ran in. O'Neill yelling

"Don't shoot" I went to Teal'c grasping his hand in the warrior handshake

"Bray'tac" he said warmly

"Teal'c I bring news" I said as a bold man came in with the look of authority,

"Hammond of Texas" I greeted rubbing my head to indicate his crown of marble.

"Bray'tac, Teal'c has told me a lot about you." He greeted. I nodded

"I have news of a Tau'ri woman captured by Aphosis" I told them. They all looked serious

"Carter, where is she?" O'Neill asked as Daniel joined us.

"She is with Aphosis and a light guard on the invisible creature planet" I said more to Teal'c.

We went upstairs where I pointed out the symbols and they questioned me further. I then departed back to Chulak hoping they would do something with what I had told them.

Chapter 12- Jack

We had it the gate address where Sam was.

"Sir permission to….." I began, he nodded

"Granted gear up" Hammond told us. We ran out the corridors clearing, in record time we were ready in the gate room the gate dialling, the MALP was sent revealing only 2 Jaffa guard on the other side.

"You have a go take SG3" Hammond ordered, we stormed through the gate Teal'c took the left flank me on the right. We would take out the Jaffa on either side then secure the area. Daniel would be back up.

The plan went off without a hitch and soon we had control of the gate. I ordered Higgins and Johnson to guard the gate while the rest split up the 2 members of Sg3 together.

We walked through the jungle keeping an eye out for Aphosis, Sam or the invisible creature Teal'c had briefly spoken about. Boy that would be a find to get the oversight off our backs for a while. Make stealth missions a doddle, but were we responsible enough for that level of technology was a worry a big damn ethical nightmare.

We saw Aphosis and his cronies walking guarded by only 2 guards, we could easily take him. I signalled for Daniel and Teal'c to get into position radioing Maypeace and Sg3 to stand by. One 3 we pounced taking out the Jaffa immediately then firing at Aphosis we discovered he had some kind of force shield. He pointed a staff weapon at me and shot. It hit. Oh God that hurt I was dying I knew it. I lay on the floor.

I had failed.
