Once again, thanks to my wonderful beta sleepystargazer for her help :)

Chapter 14 - MTAC

When the three men arrived at Abby's lab, she was alone.

"They all went down to see Ducky " the woman announced.

"But we just left there , Abby!" Tony said, a little annoyed by the situation.

"The Colonel and the Major talked amongst themselves for a moment before deciding to go back to Ducky. You just missed them."

"Yeah, it's like a Scooby-Doo episode !" Tony growled. "Call down and ask them not to move, we're coming !"

Tim sighed, shaking his head. He followed Tony's footsteps, leaving Teal'c behind. Turning quickly, Teal'c surprised Tim by giving a kiss to Abby. He smiled quietly, but kept it to himself.

"Agent DiNozzo, what's "Scooby-Doo "?" Teal'c asked in the elevator.

"It is an animated cartoon franchise about a group of teens and their talking brown Great Dane dog, named Scooby-Doo, who solve mysteries involving supposedly supernatural creatures through a series of antics and missteps. Oh it's great, you should ask Sam to show you! "

"I will, thank you, Agent DiNozzo."

"Seriously, you don't know Scooby-Doo?"

"No agent McGee. I have discovered your culture when I came here."

"He saved the situation since he's a fan of "Star Wars", huh McGee-WanKenobi" Tony said, putting a friendly hand on the Jaffa's shoulder.

Catching Teal'c's looking at his hand, Tony took it off before saying : "Too soon, right ?"

"I will tolerate it because you are Major Carter's brother."

"What?" Tim asked.

"McChatty, mind your own business !" Tony growled.

"I am truly sorry, Agent DiNozzo. I did not want to embarrass you."

When the elevator opened, Ziva joined the group and noticed Tony's frown. He seemed nervous while McGee had a grin. Ziva hated when he had that look because it meant "I know something you don't."

Teal'c headed Jack, with a firm step.

"O'Neill, we have a problem!"

"If you're talking about the snake and his friends, I already know."

Teal'c turned his head towards Sam, for her to confirm.

"We all found clues individually leading to - a snake!"

She showed to Teal'c the Lieutenant's X-Rays, where the Goa'uld's shape was visible. The Jaffa couldn't suppress the shiver that ran down his spine.

"Would you care to explain to us ?" Gibbs ordered.

"Not here" Jack said quietly. "The MTAC ?"

Gibbs invited everyone to follow, including Ducky. He called Abby to come and they were all seated in the secure room to observe Jack, Sam and Teal'c standing in front of them.

"The best person to tell you all this would be Daniel but - I'll make it short and simple. For technical issues, please ask Carter."

Sam gave a small smile and Jack spoke again.

"We discovered an object, the Stargate, to travel through space. We also found these false Gods, called Goa'uld and we fight against them. They use humans as hosts and force entire worlds into slavery across the galaxy. The Stargate on earth was closed by Ra, a long time ago but some false Gods are still hidden on Earth. We believe that the Lieutenant's death is linked to a Goa'uld but we don't know which one. "

"This is a joke, right?" Tony asked, turning his head in all directions, searching for a hidden camera.

"No, Tony, it's real. That's what we have been fighting for seven years. This is a bigger threat than anything you can imagine, they are dangerous" Sam said.

"And deceitful" Teal'c added.

"Above all, we must find out who he is and where he's hiding. Then we'll see" Jack said.

"I saw an interesting pottery on the first pictures, O'Neill."

"Okay, tomorrow morning we will bring them to Daniel, to have his expertise."

Jack felt that people in front of him had tons of questions but he didn't have the courage to respond to everything. He proposed to stop there for the day and made sure that everyone got some rest.

"If the line is secure, I will call General Hammond" Jack asked Gibbs.

He asked McGee to dial the SGC. After a few chaotic minutes and a call to Harriman, Hammond's face was on the giant screen.

"You are always so attractive, sir!" Jack said, making Sam giggle.

"Colonel !" the General gently scolded.

"Daniel is okay but he'll have stay in Bethesda for a while."

"Do you want him to be transferred to the SGC?"

"No, I prefer to have him close because the Goa'uld presence has been confirmed, sir."

"You used the Presidents authorization to tell these people about the Program?" Hammond asked, pointing to the group behind Jack.

Jack briefly turned to watch them before returning to Hammond.

"Yes sir, no choice. Except we don't know who our enemy is."

"Okay, I'll contact the Tok'ra."

"I don't think that that is a good idea, sir" Sam said cautiously.

"And why is that Major?"
