Chapter 21: Realizations And Psyche Evaluations Uncovered

"If there was a chance one of them had a settlement on earth there was more than the gate we found. We know that find that technology could be our chance. But actually getting results that work and are through legal means more than constantly risking our lives for a pipe dream. And rather then illicitly are what I'm looking for so we can head off an interplanetary incident when it comes to politics in these situations."

"Than yes I would have, why exactly." he asked and he explained that to him, while looking at Jack firmly. "Because Jack could have screwed up our chance to find it, remember what you told me, dad, the greater good sometimes had to come first over the safety of the individual. In a war like this, sometimes we're all expendable, casualty of war, this is what Machello was trying to say when he hijacked my body back then."

"I am offering you the safety of your planet, isn't that worth more than life of a single person.'. The technology to save earth, I've risked my life, time and time again to protect earth, searching the ancient archives for the technology we needed to protect earth. But every time I reach a break through and we get that shot, Jack interferes in my research and it's back to the drawing board." he said and they nodded to him firmly at that.

"You're searching the archives for the answer while we're wasting our time in searching for technology to defend earth against the Goa'uld. And the races are not offering technology, but they do offer advice and help, just what the heck is going on exactly?" Jumper asked and he crossed his arms. "Because the riddle here is something they're all waiting for us to crack right now, said riddle is that the technology is not so far away."

"At all, in fact it's hiding in the place we least expect it to be, like it's right in our backyard and with that. Now it's the possibility that when they left Vis Uban, and possibly came to earth, they had an outpost in both spots. And if they have, there's scattered spots in several pockets all over earth, and we could have found the first when we found the beta gate and if we had, Jack just screwed up my chances to realize it."

"But there was a chance we could have found it finally the answers needed, the ancient's are the gate builders as I said. But Ascension was the gift of immortality if you shoved out the self preservation in favor of going completely selfless. They chose Ernest as the messenger and I'm the one they possibly chose to be leader of the fifth race, to protect Earth from the Ori." he said and they nodded to him as they exchanged looks at that.

"Sirs I'm saying the answers lie in the archives, all this time in searching for the technology, it could be right under our noses. Hiding in the very spot we found the beta gate, but we have never gone back to Antarctica since we found the beta gate. And the one time you do results in his capture by Ba'al, but that maybe our one chance to find it all and get us the technology to stop a character as dangerous as the Ori."

"When I started this job as being the only civilian on the base, till my friends started showing up one by one, I was the only one focusing on the bigger picture. But the safety of our entire race came first before the safety of the team. I had to think about the greater good, over my own life now, let alone theirs. You want me to think like a soldier, well I was doing that at the time, and I could have found what we were looking for."

"Because the quartet were using the elements as a way to communicate with us, but the message was just beginning to become clear that they were the four races against the Goa'uld. We found two, after meeting the Nox and ending up on Cimmeria, that was Thor's settlement for several friends of ours, including a former host named Kendra. But there was more to it then that, and I've been trying to figure it out ever since."

"If I had enough time to study the ancient language I could have lead them right to the site, if there was an ancient settlement on earth. And if there is and was, Earth has all the technology needed to protect earth, but he's not considering that whatsoever and everytime I come close to a breakthrough now it's always the team comes first. But as always, his sense of survival, self preservation over came the safety of our race."

"Would you say that to save earth, they had to sacrifice me to get the answers, regarding the Heliopolis. The languages of the quartet are ones that I speak fluently, but would you order them to let me stay and and I could finish what Ernest started. In searching for the answer in the archives?" he asked and Sam looked at him in shock at that remark as the eight all nodded to him as Hammond answered him at that gently.

"If you had found a breakthrough and needed a shot and finishing it yes I would, the safety of our species had to come first over your life in this case. As I said the day of our conception date, your knowledge in ancient cultures, religions and languages was far too valuable to lose. But if you wanted to continue in studying the archives I'd order them to give it another chance at the time and you returned, you could tell me what you found."

"But yes son, why do you ask?" he asked and the trio exchanged looks as he answered him. "Sirs based on my knowledge of the ancients, its they valued the science, while the Ori valued religion. After realizing the Ori were about to create a cult, they decided to leave their home Galaxy and come to ours and created several settlements. But the three races that met them were the Asgard, Nox and Furlings and with that."

"They all realized that they had something in common when it came to the Goa'uld, and together became the races that were against them. Whatever stories that were in their reasons to we can go into it at a different time here, but the ones that we know of here. The gate builders spoke a language that died out when Christ was crucified by the Romans at the time, but with that in mind, it's going back to one of the biggest fables."

"In our culture, but the stories of King Arthur and the Knights of the round table, but Merlin was an ancient, he created the technology meant to destroy ascended beings. Had we continued on this course and I uncovered this knowledge the results would be we exposed ourselves to them next and they would be starting crusades from their Galaxy right into ours now, I'm going on a hunch here but why would they be dressing in robes."

"Think about it, why would you find her frozen in a block of ice in that cavern two caves over from where we found the beta gate and the dead serpent guard. If there wasn't something lying down there just waiting to be found. We've spent five wasted years trying to find a way to bring back results, without luck and both times we nearly did. And there's a case of smoke and mirrors, but my mind keeps shifting back to Heliopolis now."

"Why they've been denying us technology, and as have the Tokra and Tollan, but why is the next question, what are they hiding from us, why did we find the gate out there. That's the question we should be asking right now: why are they denying the technology we need to defend ourselves, why did the trio suddenly decide to contact us. Just after we destroyed Seth and Hathor, why did we find that Heliopolis so soon?"

"After we met the Cimmerians and the Nox, why did Apophis attack us 18 months to the day we destroyed Ra, and why am I the one they chose to train to become a member of the ancient's." he said and they exchanged looks at that remark. "I never considered that since you and I met, why indeed, just what are they hiding. Why of all people, did you get chosen to be their prize pupil, why did we find the beta gate out there."

"Why did we find that Heliopolis so soon after we found and met Thor and the Nox, and why would the system lords attack 18 months to the day you reactivated the gate. But two years later, after we got rid of Seth and Hathor for them, did the decide to negotiate a treaty with us?" Landry said and they exchanged looks as he looked at the box of documents he created after he told his mentor he found her husband.

"Sir, if we hadn't chosen to change things now and we found a human/Goa'uld hybrid I later discovered was also half ancient. And then discovered he was the son of Anubis what would your reaction be to my telling you we had to kill him, before he reached the point he could ascend?" he asked and Landry crossed his arms. "I'd say it doesn't matter what the IOA thinks, because studying the character is way too dangerous."

"And if he went berserk in the middle of the study we'd have to kill him anyway, but as you're my expert on ascended beings and Goa'uld/ancient hybrids. I wouldn't debate this, I'd take it up with Hayes or whoever becomes president next. And if he said yes to shooting him, I'd do it in a heartbeat, son, why exactly?" he asked and he sighed as he answered him as he looked from him to the seven and back again at that.

"Sirs, this question has to be considered carefully now at the moment, but is my life, let alone theirs, really more important than the salvation of our entire race on earth, now. I was willing to sacrifice my life to save everyone on earth if we ever found the lost city, I've come close to sacrificing my life on two to three occasions. And every time I try when we're in a life or death struggle, Jack always stops me before I can."

"Or he's letting him emotions get in the way of what needed to be done, but Jack wasn't around for the accident on Langara. And I gave my life to save everyone on the planet, but is my life really that more important than the safety of others. When it comes to situations like this, the biggest sacrifice I can make for our planet is by giving my life for the safety of others, that's the catch Oma wanted me to realize now?"

"While I'm Morgan's case it's the act of if I survived the accident, I could become like the ancients that chose to become freedom fighters and go to a more proactive way of protecting earth from them." he asked and the quintet exchanged pained looks at the memory as Jumper answered him, his tone firm as he said it to him gently, but firmly. "No it's not, the safety of the many must come first and though you're valuable to us."

"It's we have to think about the salvation of our entire planet, before the individual now, which is obviously he hasn't learned yet now. If we found the lost city, and you decided to be the one to fire the weapon, and it drained you down enough to kill you. Though you mattered a lot to us, the fact remained, that your sacrifice had saved our entire planet was a beyond selfless act now." he said and Daniel nodded as he looked at Morgan.

"Morgan was I who you were looking for-for a future student, you said there were several qualifiers to becom an ascended. Have I shown them all and who is the young woman Dr. Michaels dug up?" he asked and she explained that to him. "The qualifiers for Ascension are the reverse of the seven deadly sins, Daniel, you show them all in your personality, but the added qualifiers to them, in addition to being chosen."

"Are truth of spirit, courage, wisdom, loyalty, humbleness and kindness, to answer your second question. The young woman you found was the last remaining member of our settlement and she chose to stay, but she put herself into stasis. At the time prior to when you found her like that, she was the ancient that fired off the weapons, but before she could make it to the stasis pod, she collapsed and decided to put herself."

"Into suspended animation, at the time, as the day shifted into the night at the time, as the temperatures caused her to put herself into suspended animation. But think it over: we dress in robes, you find her, the Stargate and the serpent guard in that cavern, you're the only who speaks Latin. And you're the first to find that tablet that was needed, our language that you translated, we are the ancient ones, so with that clue now."

"Our language is a derivative of Latin, and you have Thor coming to visit repeatedly, but our name is the last of the quartet he gave you, so why is that. Why would we choose you unless there's a possibility you could bring us back to life now." she said softly and he nodded to her as he thought it over as he remembered the summit with the Goa'uld trio he met three years before as he looked at the box of documents then.

"So it's sitting right in our backyard, but where exactly if we just found and lost the Beta gate?" Sam asked and he thought it over and he looked at Jack. "I guess you don't see that doing this job honestly matters to you anymore does it, Colonel. Because there's no need to steal, truth of spirit, that's one of the qualifications needed to gain immortality. I show that, I show honesty, loyalty, and wisdom and they give me that chance."

"But this is why they say that you, Makepeace and Maybourne haven't learned anything, you do the leap before you look and it does more damage then necessary. Every second counts and we need every minute of it to come to a break through, but going proactive is not the way to do it. And it's causing more chaos in the galaxy than ever before, had it not been for the replicators, that would be it at the time two years ago."

"And when we were saving Teal'C from Apophis's control, but the issue is clear, here sure we wre under fire yesterday. But that was a wargame you triggered, Colonel, the games over, but now if you were either completely involved in my capture of those people. Or this was attempted murder I will make sure you get the psychiatric help you need. And it's obvious why, after Ba'al got his hands on you." he said and he watched him swallow.

"No that's not it, I swear." Jack said to him quickly. "So it's Frank and Segei, is that it?" he asked and he shook his head quickly and Daniel smiled. "There's the psychosis right there, I see it all, Colonel you're scared out of your mind here at the moment. And it's because of a single thing, and it's that you're going to suffer an alien version to your original stint. Being tortured by the interrogator, being left in a room with his guard."

"Seeing the lust in his eyes and knowing he saw you from the waist up unclothed." he said as he waited as they saw him shaking in fear at that. "Stop, shut up!" he snapped and Hammond nodded. "So that's the problem then, they want to go proactive because they're scared out of their minds they're going to get turned into hosts or worse. And they're not letting you do what you were brought in for right now."

"And they're stealing technology so they have a way to defend us and earth from the Goa'uld. And they're getting more frustrated by the minute that you're refusing to do things illicitly and that you brought in 3 scores in five months by doing it honestly. And you given us the technology to build the 302's, and brought back even more by trade agreements a few other things, so they try to get rid of you." he said and Daniel nodded.

"Yep, that's it exactly, to them the psychosis is 'How is he able to do this so easily and the joint chiefs are letting him right now. What the hell is he doing right that we aren't?'." he said and Omac answered that question. "It's by not showing threat and force, learning from your mistakes, being completely selfless. Helping us, or the races, without wanting anything in return, Colonel, but this is why we were ready now."

"To severe all ties with us because you were stealing from us at the time, Daniel Samantha, Teal'C, General Hammond, they learned from their mistakes and they can get a job done without the use of weapons threat and force. Daniel, what degree of soldier are he and the others exactly?" he asked and Jumper answered that question. "They're all black ops Omac, basically the NID is the military version to the CIA."

"They're specialized in chronic paranoia and it looking like the paranoia is turning into a schizo effective disorder here. If Daniel's getting the job done right and gaining your trust so easily and they're crossing lines not meant to be crossed here. But the program is based on the best and brightest, and we prefer brains over brawns. A game of tactics over outright attacks." he said and Omac, Thor and Morgan all nodded in understanding.

"Yeah and there was clear clue in the message that Cronus told us that day, but what I'm not entirely sure of. But if we found that serpent guard, there must have been another reason he died, aside freezing to death and we got a demonstration. Of how a symbiote keeps a Jaffa alive when under water, but that Jaffa wasn't killed by drowning. I saw what looked scorch mark right over his pouch when we defrosted him."

"Dead serpent guard, we find the beta gate next to him and then we find a possible ancient and..." Daniel started say as he closed his eyes as he ran himself into the tunnel as he went deeper and into the tunnel and his eyes landed on a chair, before his mental self turned around and saw a capsule right behind him. As his ancient self took over he saw himself in the chair and took fire at the serpent guard then as it flashed forward.

Thinking over his conversation with Yu, he then remembered the final warning between them and Cronus as he heard his voice then mentally. 'We will not attack your world, but if you continue to use the stargate, be warned, anyone of your people who gets captured by the system lords will shown no mercy, they will suffer greatly.' Suffer greatly, he was really telling us that we had a lasting peace between us.'

'Be warned, if we continue to use the gate..., we had to avoid capture', 'Anyone got arrested by the system lords would be shown no mercy, they will suffer greatly..., stay clear of us and you and your people will not suffer our wrath.'. Wait a minute here, Cronus made it clear that they wouldn't attack so long as we stayed out of their way at the time, Yu has been dealing with me and Teal'C the most the last four years since.

'And Yu caught me for practice, but that was a wargame, Cronus arrested our androids, and Teal'C kills him, we let Nirrti go and it causes a slaughter. Aw for gods sakes, thanks guys for the memory, you basically told me that you had no intention of attacking us as long as we never crossed you.' he thought as he said this out loud then. "Oh boy." he said and they all looked at him at that remark as Jacob said it for all of them.

"What's wrong now son?" he asked and he sighed and dropped the bomb then. "Hang on, Morgan, was Ayiana firing that weapon at the serpent guard by use of a chair that looked like it was made out frosted glass with a pedestal directly below it. A stasis capsule across from it and she used her telekinesis into throwing him out of the cave, before he fired on the chair?" he asked and she nodded to him and he nodded firmly.

"I saw Ayiana's last minutes, before you found her frozen Sam, she channeled her powers into keeping him from firing on the chair and she blasted him with the weapon, before throwing him out of the cavern and directly into the tunnel we found the gate in. But I just figured it out, and it's connected to your remarks regarding the system lords, the secrets in the messages has become clear now, but here's why we found him.

"But Apophis tried to attack earth by sending him threw the beta gate Ayiana was waiting for him and she blasted him, before throwing him out of the cavern, so with that in mind right now. But why would we find that serpent guard frozen solid out there, right next to the gate, unless there was more to it then that. Said that, is that they, the Ancients, are always dressed in robes, they're from a freezing cold area."

"Said area, when they came to earth was they left that gate as a marker, it was a mile below the ice shelf. They created their city in Antarctica, and the legends of that city were focused on the lost city of Atlantis. But Atlantis never sank on earth, instead it got relocated to another planet or galaxy. And was submerged under the oceans of their new home planet, but they did leave an outpost and gate lying around in Antarctica."

"So with that here's the next question: why would we find a gate buried inside a glacier and next to it, a DHD and a frozen solid serpent guard. Then, four years later, we find a woman with the abilities of an ancient. If not for the fact that she was one, you following me?" he asked and they all nodded and he went on. "Ayiana's the ancient that used the weapon, she was trying to make it to the stasis capsule, but the repeated blasts."

"They were draining her strength, because here's the added kicker, but the system lords tried to attack earth and she threw her energy into destroying the fleet. But the shots overwhelmed the shields on the hataks and destroyed them, just as Apophis was getting off the ship. After seeing that trying to attack earth was going to result in getting them killed, the system lords decided on a truce with the races that time."

"As for Ayiana, she drained 80% of her strength and put herself into suspended animation and the temperatures caused her to be frozen alive. That wasn't a fluke we found her, it was intentional, she told me where the weapon is and that's why we've been left alone ever since. Earth is an ancient outpost, that area we found the gate in was the emergency exit, they left earth right after that." he said and they nodded in shock.

"The outpost, all it needs is a new battery and we're back in business, but it takes a person who was of ancient descent to fire the weapon or drive the ship. Atlantis itself is a city version to the enterprise, but here's the bottom line, the ascended beings there's two types, the Ori are like Sith, the Ancients are Jedi. I'm a descended Ancient, but, the lost ancients wanted me to them at last, Ayiana is one of them as well."

"Oh boy, you're not serious, we found it after we met the Tollan, it's been down there all this time?!" Warren said in shock and he nodded. "Wait that could all be pure speculation, how do you know for sure. The duo never tell us these things and why is that exactly?" Jack asked quickly feeling his heart start pounding as the nine all looked at him, as he saw the growing anger in their eyes and knowing he was screwed then.

"Yeah and that's the follow up question, just what else's down there, exactly, and why would they leave those clues down there for us to find. And just ten months after we meet the Asgard, Tollan and the Nox. If not for the fact that the reason they're denying us any technological help is because we already had it. And they were waiting for us to figure this out, looking for exactly the right person to crack the code now."

"And along with that is the system lords realized though we're not more advanced than they are, we're capable of protecting ourselves. And they realized for their own safety, just to create the treaty and with the proviso of we stay out of their way and they're going to leave us alone and with those words in mind now at the moment. That's the clue we needed to end this, I just figured out why all of this is connected now."

"Dad, what's a Goa'uld's idea of abiding by a treaty when we've done nothing to test them right now. Though of said trio, two are dead and the third you had an encounter with the day before and your mentor was the minor Goa'uld of the last one. Would they violate the treaty when they know that we have access to technology that could destroy them, and because their opposition is one of the strongest in the quartet."

"And when the last piece to the warning got violated, because of one hijacking that caused our renegade officer to suffer, a second time. A stint serious enough he lost his grip on reality at the time, while the big bad Goa'uld really knocking on the front door is a ancient hybrid. And with it, the treaty specifically said and agreed upon was stay out of their way?" he asked and Sam's hand fell on the back of his chair at that remark.

"Would they keep to the agreement to leave a protected planet alone or would they ignore the treaty. And out right attack, when one of the races against them is connected to how we learned about another. And the third sees your only civilian on the base line program as their prize pupil. But all three of the races agreed to this treaty and it was stay out of their way and they leave earth alone?" he added and Jacob nodded to him.

"What are we talking here intergalactic politics at the moment, because these Goa'uld could not be trusted at one point. And yet the one who never crossed us in four years since we met them was Yu. What's the added catch here if you're bringing that now Dan?" Dixon asked as he crossed his arms then. "The catch is we've been dealing with a non existant war with him and the others in the system lords, I was listening to them."

"In their conversation at the summit, but I heard enough to make me realize that their debates and entanglements were with each other. Not with us and with the fact that we were added to the treaty now. Or we just reactivated it, and here's where you're really going to be ticked off, but somebody just violated the treaty when we activated the gate. And they attacked us by shooting up the gate room before we got recalled here."

"But pre-emptive strike, counter strike, and next comes the surgical strike here, but again. We were already under the protective planets treaty prior to Abydos, they were leaving us alone for some odd reason and not till Ra comes to his territory to do we face our first encounter. And our ancestors buried the gate, while the other was hidden, but do they agree to the terms given to them by the races, but Morgan here it is?"

"Did we already have a peace treaty with them when you were still fully human, is Earth one of your outposts and they dared not attack, because of this outpost at the time. Knowing if they did, you'd blow them away?" he asked and and she nodded as she answered him. "I was waiting for one of you to figure that out, but yes, earth was ancient territory, under the four races." she said and he nodded as Jacob nodded.

"You mean I found it when Sam alerted me to where they were when the system got overloaded?" he asked and she nodded to him. "Even before Thor told you who we were, you found us, before you know what you were looking at, my apprentice. We were waiting for someone who was full scholar to find it, decide the inscription in the message at our meeting place, and it would lead to our first settlement, and you are the person."

"You did exactly as we hoped you would, Samantha gave you the clue needed to lead you right to us. Merlin, Ayiana, and the other members of the Ancient freedom fighters and I were waiting for you all this time to find us. But you found us without even knowing it, but you found it five years ago, the outpost that would lead you to our city, the lost City of Atlantis." she said and he nodded as he looked at the nine at that.

"That's the missing link I was looking for now, we've wasted five years looking for technology to defend ourselves from the Goa'uld. But Ayiana, the serpent guard, the gate we found down there, three clues that pointed out the way to us finding what we've wasted five years in searching for. While the NID is burning our bridges with our allies for as wel, but I found it five years ago, I just never had enough time to translate it."

"But my conclusion of the gate network, when you set off the alarm in Antartica was the key. The Goa'uld never build the network the Ancients did, with it being an emergency at the time. We didn't have enough time, on two occasions to search further in Antartica, but now we do because we had it. We had it all, everything needed to defend earth from the Goa'uld was hidden in pockets all over earth at the time, Sir, but that's it."

"And with that in mind right now, that's the reason they never attacked us and why you found that serpent guard in that block of ice. He tried to come through that way, they blasted him and left him as one marker, the gate was the other. And the outpost was buried under the glaciers of Antartica. Apophis tried to violate the treaty then and the system lords agreed to leave earth alone, on the fact that we never challenge them."

"And with those words in mind, it was a mistake to choose Jack as the leader of the recon team, if we laid low and hid that nuke, better. None of this would have ever happened, as the scientist chosen to run the program, I was now the ancient's chosen one to protect and run their outpost, here on earth. We were meant to find that outpost, only a child of knowledge can read out the inscription here regarding the riddles."

"And that riddle was we've been looking in the wrong places all this time now, we didn't have to keep asking the races for help. And it's because they were waiting for us to realize we had the technology already at our disposal at the time. We found it, it's not the lost city, but it's just as good Sirs, the outpost was in Antarctica, it's connected to the cavern we found the beta gate in at the time and with those words in mind."

"Though Jack ends up with the suppository, I'm the one they were testing all this time, so with that, would they ever violate the treaty since?" he asked and they looked at him in amazement at that. "Generals the pockets hidden away are both from the legends of Camelot, Arthur and the Knights of the round table. The sword in the stone legends, but one pocket of that technology is hidden in Europe, and the other in Antartica.""

"So with that, that's actually why they were trying to head this off as whatever that stone is that was connected to this. Had I or our last piece connected to anyone in their home Galaxy, we exposed ourselves to the Ori. When you took command General, Sir, in order it's General Hammond, Jack and then you. Because while Hammond had the experience with the Goa'uld, Jack has it with the replicators and you, yourself now."

"It's 'them' and it's because you're the one who will have the utmost experience with ascended beings. As I'm your expert on the ancients and Ori, I understand the language, and as a result you'd have me leading the entire base. In the next escapade while we go searching for the weapon meant to destroy ascended beings. Which is where she and Merlin, and this plague she mentioned, came into the picture at the moment."

"But to get back to fundamentals, the technology meant to destroy Goa'uld technology is hiding in that cavern we found the second gate in. In fact, we had the technology needed to defend earth all this time, and they were waiting for us to figure this out. And the system lords were actually telling us this themselves at the summit." he said and Landry nodded in shock as he went further as he explained it to them gently at that.

"I didn't see that coming, had we not changed things, and I'd been assigned as leader of the base here, whoever the last piece to your team is. Would have you exposing yourselves to the Ori if you didn't disconnect yourselves from whatever this device is and fast. And just as one war ends, another begins and we're fighting to free our galaxy from a group as dangerous as a group of Sithlords here!" Landry said in shocked amazement.

"Yeah exactly that's my point Sir, in less than two days after whoever my new friend is arrived and you were getting fed up with her attitude. It's trying to keep ourselves alive while Sam is at Area 51 and its me, Cam, whoever this person is and Teal'C. And we're dealing with one battle or another as I'm trying to break the link between us and then to top it off is that we have to destroy their entry point into our galaxy as well."

"Before the link is broken for good, and they turn this into a true case of Christ being born as they use her, as the mother of a human born Ori. But she's an Ori in the body of a human, I'm a descended ancient and Merlin passes his abilities over to me and I create the weapon to destroy them. But in order to survive the exposure to the suppository I have to be turned into one of the messengers and then it becomes a case of cross."

"And double cross, before I return to being myself again as we annihiliate first the Ori, then the replicators a second time in our galaxy and finally destroy the last remaining system lord. And that's Ba'al, but that's the next three years after we get rid of Anubis and you take Jack's place as the leader of the base, while Carolyn is working here." he said and the seven nodded in amazement at the news as he answered him in shock.

"That's what's coming had we not chosen now to reset the timeline here?" Jumper said in shock and he nodded to him. "Yes Sir, but fortunately I'm not the one being connected to her, that falls to Steven you have me around. Because I'm not working on the front line here at the base anymore, I'm leading Atlantis, but my teams have the ancient suppository while the SGC has the Abydos cartouche, but to continue on here."

"But the clues in the conversation with Cronus were made clear here, but here it is, 'We will not attack your world, but if you continue to use your Stargate, be warned.'. So long as we continue to do gate travel we had to be cautious and stay out of their way. They won't attack us, because we had the technology already at our disposal here at the time, he was trying to tell us we were actually an ancient colony outpost at the time."

"And before they headed for Thor's Galaxy, which is the Pegasus galaxy, but to continue on here, 'anyone who gets captured by the system lords, will be shown no mercy, they will suffer greatly.'. Translation to that one is, don't challenge us, you leave us alone and we'll leave you alone, just stay out of your way and your planet is protected. The treaty has been reactivated, and your free to resume your daily lives."

"Just stay out of our way, and we will not attack you." he said and they nodded in shock to the news then. "That's what he meant, so long as we stayed out of their way and never challenge them. They'll leave us alone, Jack has been outright antognizing them since Sha're and Skaara got taken, first Ra, then Her'ur. But he's throwing a direct challenge at the family of Ra this entire time and with them, the system lords."

"So we've been searching in the wrong places, our allies, the races, the Tollan and the Tokra never offered any technology, but they offered us advice and help. And it's because, to the trio we already had the technology, it's just we're looking everywhere, but the continent it started with. I get blasted to the second gate and it marked the outpost, we found the technology needed now." Sam said in shock and he nodded to her.

As Jacob answered him, his tone turning firm as he exchanged looks with the sextet. "No they'd abide by the treaty, to them, earth may have advanced in the years since Ra left it, but to them the Tauri are still not worth their time in trying to attack at the moment. Not when they're arguing over territories right now, and they agreed under the protective planets treaty to leave earth alone, why do you ask, son?"

"Because I'm not liking the reason for that question?" Jacob asked him and he sighed. "That's the part you're going to kill Jack, West and Vidrine for, Sirs, it wasn't by mistake that Apophis attacked us that day when he came through here. In fact it was retaliation, retaliation for us attacking them first, he decided on retaliation and we went to retribution by giving him a bloody nose." he said and Hammond crossed his arms at that.

"Sirs we got a new catch here I just remembered at the moment, the system lords retaliated the day Apophis attacked us, but Cronus, he reactivated it. But you recall when we brought Catherine back into it and we found where Dr. Littlefield ended up that year?" he said and they nodded as Jack swallowed. "We do, but what's your point exactly?" he asked and Daniel smiled dangerously as he answered him as he said it then.

"My point is, if you'd given me more time to translate it, we could have had all the knowledge needed to protect earth. She wanted me to find that outpost, I found it, without even knowing, if you bothered to let me go back, we'd have it long before Sokar came into the picture And Kinsey shut us down you fool." Daniel said as Sam felt her anger start growing at that as she finished that remark then read it out to him.

"Earth was an ancient colony, Ayiana, was one of the ancient's that chose to stay here, but she drained her strength. And that's why we found her like that, she was waiting for Daniel." she said and Dabiel finished it. "But the reason she couldn't understand you guys was because she spoke Latin. Latin was derivative to ancient and it went out of use by the time Christ died and ascended, which is the crucifixion he suffered."

"He was crucified, he died and he ascended, became immortal himself, my accident was enough that's as close to what he'd gone through as possible. But the root language to Ancient Rome was latin, so who here speaks fluent Latin and understands ancient exactly. And with it, why would I be the only the Nox saw as I learned something after Apophis ended up there?" he asked and she answered that question firmly as she said it.

"You do, if you'd survived the accident, and, instead of ascending, you could have translated to us what she was telling us when Michaels found her. We get it Daniel, if you'd been here last year you could have lead us right to their outpost and we'd have all the technology we needed to protect earth. When Anubis showed up, and we'd be gathering more of their technology, as we continued searching for Atlantis."

"But with you we stand a better shot at finding it years earlier than we did." Janet said to him and he nodded as the duo both looked at Jack icily at that. "It gets better Sirs, but here it is, they were waiting for us to dig further into the cavern we found the second gate in. Before Thor, Anteaus and Lya dropped the bomb on us, but that was one of the outposts that the ancients had, there's several pockets all over the planet."

"Thor, Morgan and Anteaus, they chose me to be the leader of the fifth race, with the Furlings extinct now. They needed the right person to take the mantle of the leader of the fifth race, seeing my abilities to translate their languages. And the fact I let Omac, Narim and the other go, that was the clincher and I find the gate next. They lead me right to them and I found it without even realizing I found it 6 years ago."

"And that cavern we found the gate in was the very first one, we found it, before we even realized who it was that created it." he said and they nodded. "You mean to tell me if he'd just given you more time, we'd have found all of it years sooner than we did. And just before we reset the time, we learn we never needed to go to them. For technological help, because we had everything we needed?" Ryan said in shocked anger to the news.

"Uh huh, it's we wasted five years going to our allies, for technogical help, and they're only offering us advice, waiting till we figured it out for ourselves. And during that time, while we're wasting our time in the run around while the NID barely destroyed us in making decisions that could destroy millions of others and stealing from our allies. I had everything you needed with my being a linguist, anthropologist and archeologist."

"Ernest just got me started in translating it and Jack blew our chances to get that technology five years ago. Morgan chose me to be the leader of a new race of ancients, human form ancient's. But I'm a descended ancient now and I continue to use and train with my powers and with it I'm a linguist. This was my arena now and when I needed time to translate their message when it was put into code by use of the elements."

"Catherine chose me because I could translate these things if given enough time and with that. All this time you're breaking the rules left and right to bring back technology, and all this time it's been sitting in front of us. Sitting in the area we found the second gate, the area you crashlanded in after the system was over loaded. If you'd given me a chance to finish my translations on that planet we could have had it five years ago."

"So thank you colonel, the Nobel prize of wasting five years in looking in all the wrong places goes to you Jack, you screwed up our chance to get the technology needed to save earth." he said and Jack swallowed hard at that. "And that's why we depended on you in the science department all this time. You see things we miss at times, but then I'm one of your biggest supporters in the military." Maynard said to him with a smile.

"Then again Bill, if I was in the joint chiefs, I'd have found that stash 12 years at the time. If I met you when when I hit my current rank and I'd still be working as one of the officers in joint chiefs like Paul does. And with that you guys would've been my trio as a result." he said and the man nodded with a smile at that. "What's with the informality, he's a four star Daniel?" Jack snapped and Maynard smiled as he answered that.

"True, but my true vouchers weren't for you, I prefer brains over brawns, Carter, Daniel Teal'C and Lou are, in my eyes, the true SG-1. He's far more valuable to me then you are colonel as to that they, the sextet, have been at it for 35 years, I've been for 20 years. And Daniel would have made 4 star by the time he hit 40 if he was in Air Force. Becoming the youngest, next to me, general in here." he said to him firmly at that.

"The quintet and president all think that themselves Colonel, and it's the same for Darrel as well. But then Darrel's a family friend and as will Jacob and George be, and you're on the edge of a court martial so watch it." he said to him sternly as Daniel turned to his new friends and his mentor as he finished. "The elements were writing out a message, a message I didn't have time to study because he yanked me out of the room."

"I know our survival was at stake, but so was earthborn humanity, the lives of our entire planet was at stake if I didn't translate that message, guys. Don't you understand now, you were in a rush to save the five of you. If you'd given me more time to translate it, as Ernest got me started. I was who they were looking for, to be the leader of the fifth race now, the ancient prodigy, I'm an ancient prodigy." he said and they nodded in shock.

"Generals, the beta gate marked the outpost, the outpost was like a military base in our terms, so when they had to move locations they left the base. But the gate itself was like the landing strip, the outpost their military base. And just 50 miles outside of ours in Antartica, so they waited for their human counterparts to find it. And bingo they revealed to us their real name and that they were one of the races against the Goa'uld."

"But it was standing in plain sight, we couldn't have been more than fifty yards away from it at the time, had I bothered to check further. And had we gone back after they recovered, we'd have had the technology and the way to the future. By us using that weapon to stop the attack, before Kinsey shut us down, and I found those coordinates." he told the eight and they all nodded in shocked anger at that as Jacob answered that.

"You mean we found it five years ago, all this time in gathering technology asking the races for added help. And though they offered advice and aid, but never their technology, it's because we had it already, while the NID are burning our bridges with our allies. But all this time searching for a way to protect earth and we found it when the system was overloaded at the time, and just after we met the Tollan five years ago."

"Jack blew our chances at finding the technology we needed to protect earth, and if they'd given you more time to figure it out, we'd have it all. And it was sitting right under our noses this entire time back then, you're right, what matters more now, this is what Machello was asking us. I'm offering you the safety and salvation of your entire planet, isn't that worth more than the..., he's one of the four races, he's got to be."

"Morgan was Machello one of the four races or was he connected to you?" Jacob asked and she nodded. "He's a race connected to the Furlings, General Carter, but he was very correct. It's we were offering you the safety and security of your entire planet, isn't that worth waiting till the storm was passed before they returned to earth. Because if he figured it out that day, you had every ounce of technology needed to protect earth."

"So what do you wish to do now?" she asked and Jumper said it with a growl. "We're starting earlier than we did." he said and Daniel nodded. "Dad, Sirs, if we got started early like say when Sam and I both nearly ten years old. We could have the way to defend earth from the Goa'uld, and as to how. It's because the the ancient suppository was the way, we go through the back logs and start digging through each."

"Of the ancient protected planets, start searching for more of the ancient technology, the weapons, ships, power sources, as we're doing it. And with it begun searching for the ancient power sources, more of the weapons that outpost fired and their traveling ships as well. Because we could have started adding on to the outpost, dug up the second gate and earth was protecting itself long before the orbital attack at the time."

"Catherine said I reminded her of Ernest, but he was their first try to try and get us a message to protect earth from the system lords, and she chose me next. The freedom fighters in the four races chose their candidate to finish what they started and I am that candidate. They prefer scholars to crack their riddles, they wanted a scientist a scientist to be the one to crack their codes and riddle at the time back then."

"But the first to find it was my age and he had thirty years to study it, but that's not enough time when in the middle of a deadline. It's not a physicist they were looking for all this time, but an archeologist, someone who was a linguist and anthropologist. And I'm all three, I was meant to find that Heliopolis, so we could do this." he said as he dug through the files till he reached the one focused on the Heliopolis then and smiled.

"Got it, it's right here, the peace treaty was written in Latin." he said and Anna said it in shock at that. "That's the ancient root language!" she said and he nodded to her gently at that. "Alright Sirs, listen to this, 'As the races against the Goa'uld we have declared a truce and peace treaty with the system lords. So to our descendants, earth is under protection unless the peace treaty gets violated."

"By you as our descendants, to keep earth protected you must not show aggressive action. And keep clear of the Goa'uld system lords, if you discover our stargate'. And choose to start expanding further into the universe, heed these words and do not challenge the system lords, we created a treaty with the system lords, before we left this galaxy 50,0000 years ago."

"But do not challenge them or act aggressively to them when or if you meet them or the peace treaty will be violated. It's the only thing protecting earth now that the system Lord Ra has left it. If you encounter one of the system lords when you activate the Stargate once again, heed the legends written on each planet regarding the system lords, their cover stones."

"The coverstones covering their stargates are marked by hiroglyphics, each culture has their own language, but the language of the system lords. And all Goa'uld, is ancient Egyptian, each coverstone marks the planets to which these gates go to. If you find one of their's heed caution when you go there, because their inhabitants, are either fiercely loyal or they are a mining guild to them."

"But if you find planets marked by us or the other races, our peoples and followers can lead you to us so you can learn more about us. To our prize pupil, only you will be able to protect earth, if you're a scholar. Because our language is similar to Ancient Roman language. So once you find one of our suppositories that's your only chance to learn as much as possible to protect earth'."

"This Heliopolis, our meeting places of us freedom fighters of each of the four races has the dialer destroyed, so if you're a scholar. Your first test as the possible fifth race of the races against the Goa'uld is getting yourselves back from the planet. To our prize pupils, only you can defend earth, if you learn enough regarding it, but heed our warnings now regarding the system lords."

"The system lords are a group of the most powerful Goa'uld in the Galaxy, but they, unless they feel threatened, will not attack earth. So if you violate the treaty, be it accidental or deliberately, you must seek us out and we can help reactivate the treaty with them. But you already have weapons at your disposal, earth was our first outpost, before we moved our city to the Pegasus Galaxy."

"So you have everything you need to defend earth, if you unintentionally activate one of our suppository archives. Then there is a sleep capsule in the outpost that can be used to put the victim in stasis till you find and locate our closest friends, the Asgard. The leader of the Asgard is from Norse mythology, and he will help you in returning you to yourself, if this happens."

"The added technology given in our outpost is a control chair to fire the weapon system in the outpost. That fires drones meant to overcome the Goa'uld technology, destroying it from the inside out. Our power source is a more advanced version of the Orbanian Naquada generator technology and there's enough power to fire the weapons multiple times, however."

"If the power source is out of energy, you must search out one of our other planets, our other outposts are scattered through the protected planets treaty, and each one has technology at your disposal. But to use it, you must not take advantage of that technology, you must be smart in how you use it. To our future prize pupils, you must further your studies about us now."

"But under no circumstances can you show aggression, by showing aggression to the system lords it's going to lead them right back to earth. And reactivate a war, a war we have tried to end for 1,000 years, and one that has decimated our numbers in the ancient's and Furlings. Just before we, the Atlantians, left earth for a new home galaxy'." he read out and they exchanged shocked looks.

"When we went through, West did exactly that, by sending a mark III through to Abydos at the time. Three years later we fixed that situation, and it's regarding the summit now, when we had Yu here and with him Nirrti and Cronus at the time. Cronus said they wouldn't attack us as long as we never crossed them. Exact wording being, 'We will not attack your world, but if you continue to use your Stargate, be warned.'."

"Anyone who gets captured by the system lords will be shown no mercy, they will suffer greatly.'. In the 4 years and eight months that followed, our wars have been with renegade Goa'uld, to name a few Nirrti, Apophis, Osiris, Sokar, and Hathor. And so far we haven't at the moment, I'm guessing here, but I think they prefer. That we do their dirty work for them as to that, the system lords have been very gracious in staying away."

"I mean every Goa'uld encounter we had were all renegades at the time, three in stasis, one Goa'uld captured by the NID, two more hiding on earth, one impersonating a Jaffa. A vendetta and a case of experiments that resulted in her ending up dead at the time. Another knocking on the front door just to get the original it started with back and another impersonating a Tokra. All of them were renegade Goa'uld at the time here too."

"But aside from Nirrti and Cronus, the others haven't even come after us, they're leaving us alone. Generals, to be realistic here regarding this ever since we took out Hathor and Seth for them at the time, they seemed to be opened up to negotiations and we saved Cronus. To him, he was paying it forward at the time by them leaving us alone, I've been focusing good and hard on what caused this entire situation, since the sarcophagus."

"Ever since Sokar came into the picture and we annihilated him next with Aldwin's help, the results are we're wasting time and resources on fighting the system lords. Time needed to gather supplies, food and equipment in case we get another renegade trying to destroy us, and we killed three more after we took out Her'ur as well. In addition to Cronus and Nirrti, and Yu dropped the bomb on us that Imhotep infiltrated the rebellion."

"But what I saw when I did speak to him yesterday, after he gave us a teltak to return to earth at the time. That's not the act of a Goa'uld determined to destroy us, he's acting like a training instructor and a fair sportsman in this. The system lords have left us alone ever since Apophis attacked the base back then, it's like they're not even bothering with us right now at the moment after our conversation yesterday, the point because clear."

"And it was enough to tell me a simple thing here now generals and it's as close to the conversation you had with Maxwell as possible, Captain. But there is no war with the system lords, there never was a war with them all this time. In fact we just been fighting a bunch of renegade Goa'uld all this time, ones in stasis or hiding on earth, infiltration. Impersonation, a stowaway and a case unexpected politics going crazy here."

"Dad you notice the difference after I left last year to things like they were for the first five years?" he asked and Hammond nodded. "Yes with you here, we had the translations, missions and results coming five times faster then normal. You were our leading archeologist and as I said, your knowledge in ancient cultures and languages. That is far too valuable to lose, and we get a demonstration of that twice in 18 months."

"But what we also saw was without you everyone was sniping at each other, tempers were getting short. And it's because you were the foundation and glue holding us together, without you everything falls apart. Well that's not happening again, I don't care what the NID says you're more important, you were the reason. We were having the results brought in, 4 to 5 times in six months we got results and it's because of you."

"Of your unit, you had the skills to get us results and that included us meeting the Asgard for real in year two. But the Tollan, Asgard, Nox, Ancient's and the Tokra, if it hadn't been for your skills we'd have been destroyed the second Apophis attacked in the orbital attack. It's that clear, without your participation we would have been finished in 1998..., because of the NID." he said and Jack swallowed hard at thst remark then.

"As it is, the arguments regarding the system lords in all of the trust's cases is simple, but different species. But it's the same argument, and said argument being quoted off of a certain tv show as well. Said cast in the room with us right now, but it's just after Wes left for the academy, but look at that angle and the result, the kid they helped raise and train leaves and it results in, 11 months later, them being turned into drones now."

"Because they all lost their focus, well I'm a twice his age and I'm the reason we lasted this long, half scientist/half soldier. My skills are the reason I've prevented you crossing that line, you needed me to get us out of the positions we got ourselves into. But then you're a 20th century of the captain and you think like he does." he said and Hammond nodded and Picard crossed his arms and he nodded to that as Daniel went further.

"I understand why and now that I got a taste of what over exposure does to a human body on that piece of junk. He's still under scrutiny at the moment, you, the scrutiny is off, your memories are slowly rebooting themselves, that's fine. You're still yourself and, in some cases, it turned you into a skilled officer. And one that I'm not giving up without a fight yet here, but go ahead, what's the comparision." Hammond said and he nodded.

"Our committee and leader thinks the same way and it's on the exact same thoughts, as theirs does. But think about it, if we were in their century who would we be right now, if you're the commander of the frontline vessel. I was ready for promotion and again I turned it down, I was weighing my options at the time here. But I didn't decide, because frankly you need me more when we got a rookie just arriving who's a desk jockey."

"I've dealt with the opponent in question we're dealing with after they killed 30 of my people and I know better then anyone what's at stake. As the new comer starts trying to push her limits, regarding my friends in every department. And I told you our newcomer wanted to rush results, and though I said it wasn't the time for this. But starting with the fact she erred once in leaving the ship without telling me at the time here in this."

"She errs again by suggesting they keep up the tests, despite the fact that my student and the second in command of my team are asleep on their feet. In fact the entire engineering and tech crew is so exhausted they're ready to sleep for a week. As I made a command decision, and it's letting the team get seven hours uninterrupted sleep. But she wants to continue till I make it clear, we're not machines, we need rest to focus."

"Before she's gets into a debate over this by asking our only android team mate for help in continuing and I decide to pull the plug then as I tell her. If we get into another scrimmage, I want a crew that's able to focus in fighting the enemy and not at the same time their fighting their own fatigue right now. But then comes the final straw in my patience, regarding the ship, and it's by a saucer separation now and that does it."

"I'm not risking innocent lives in a move that could put children at risk right now, and when we needed the engine power as she said she wants to ask you for a second opinion. And then comes my telling her that I'm your second in command and I bring all alternatives to your attention. And she goes behind my back to you for a second opinion on it, and after I just told her it's not the time for this, after you and I discussed this."

"For us, we decide the best way to run the ship, and to quote Will, the regulations on the ship don't change, just because Ensign, whoever, decides they do. I've served on said ship for three years, you and me, our bond is strong and I don't have to hear your thoughts. To know that until we need said maneuver, it's on a hold until further notice, but here's the difference, as we change the timeline here, I'm your executive officer."

"She only knows you by reputation, I've been working at your side for three years, I know you better then she does. But we've been together so long, that I can anticipate your thoughts in the safety of the crew. That option was a reserve, but until we need it, it's on a hold and I don't have to hear the words to know you just told her that. Before I walked into the room, as she's a rookie member of my team and one who's testing me."

"I then let her have it in the turbolift as she then pops off to me with the same tone that Jenny did to Sam. Before I tell her that when it come to this ship and my crew, you better believe I play is safe. Before she pops off with the remark of if I can't make the big decisions, I should make room for someone who can. But is just possible I didn't reach my rank, because I do know them and I'm thinking about the civilians on board."

"The children and any decisions I make could affect them as well, as their parents are under my command and with me, yours here Sir." he said and he nodded as they exchanged looks at that. "Good point, whether West knew it or not, you were in charge of the team that went to Abydos at the time. But he just put the team at risk and half of it was killed, because he got reckless at the time here." Jacob said and he nodded firmly.

Looking at Jack at that remark, Danel crossed his arms as he said it. "I can see the scared look in your eyes, you know I'm right Jack, you're taking risks and I'm not. But then that's why your record has so many insubordinate charges on it. Mine is practically spotless and while you're screwing around way too much. I'm doing the job I was asked to do, namely making sure my team makes it back alive and without a scratch on them."

"But Abydos was a recon and anthropology mission and your department turned a routine mission into a fight for survival. I'm playing it safe, because I know the dangers of making the big decisions, and I didn't reach my current rank, because I'm reckless. But because I know the dangers of making the big decisions, any decisions I make can and will affect the next of kin, but that's the difference between us right now, Colonel."

"You're as irresponsible and reckless as Beth right now and that's why I turned you in, your decisions barely kill me twice and did kill me when you attacked Ra's guards. But think it over right now, you exposed us, Earth, because you brought that weapon. And again is it just possible you don't reach Colonel, or General. And without knowing the consequences of making the big decisions here." he said and Jack swallowed at that.

"That's what happened at the time Colonels, I sent you on a recon mission, and your orders were recon, anthropology and diplomatic relations. And the black ops department turned it into a fight for survival, because they broke my orders?" Jumper said slowly and Daniel and Lou nodded. "Yes Sir, it took my fast wits to prevent the gate on that planet from getting blown, so again regarding our counterparts here." he said and they nodded.

"My half of the team was destroyed, because Ra found that warhead and Daniel filled me on what the reason was here at the time. Before the adrenaline come down hit him and Charlie and I got him to rest finally. We both knew if he didn't get some rest he wasn't going to find the solution and then did the following morning. As we tied up some loose ends, but despite the fact the duo and I change plans in this, Jack didn't, Sir."

"But not realizing the damn thing was rigged Jack turned it on and we had seven minutes before the Abydonians rebelled and we ringed it aboard Ra's hatak. But 3/4's of the team are dead,mbecause of the black ops department, West, Vidrine and Jack. Charlie and I agreed with Daniel, we should have all spec ops, but did a stealth mission. Choosing Jack turned an anthropology mission into a fight for survival." Lou added and they nodded.

"On my orders your mission was anthropology and science, but the NID/black ops department turned it into a fight for survival. By sending Jack, even though I gave no such order and neither did the president, as he went with my opinions here. So they took the initiative and did what had to be done, is that right." Jumper said and Daniel nodded. "Yes Sir, word for word, on Maxwell." he said and they nodded as Hammond said it then.

"To answer your question son, we'd be Jean Luc and Will actually, and you're very correct right now, I agree with you. At the current moment it's not the time for this, separating the saucer section from the battle bridge. And it means they have no extra thrust to escape the enemy, whoever it is that we're fighting against at the moment. I lost 30 people, after the last scrimmage, and with it I know you're ready for that promotion."

"Frankly it's I'm not ready to see you leave though and not when in the middle of the latest conflict at the moment here. And this idea is risk, that, in normal situations would benefit. But right now it's a risk we're not taking when we have children on board this ship right now. As I tell her this that we need to take things carefully, instead of rushing the net right now, seeing you walk in the door with an annoyed look on your face."

"But seeing that look on your face, I know you already told her this that the risks are not worth taking, not when we have children on board the ship. But if I was Jean Luc and overheard your, or their, conversation in the elevator. It's enough I'd order her to my office and let her have it for that. Disobeying a direct order, insubordination, reckless endangerment, the list goes on and on, but you're my second in command here."

"When I'm not around you're in charge and you make the decisions and it's that simple, but I'm not a warlike general. In fact that was a test when I told the colonel that, you saw the other side of me after you're the one leading yourself and Teal'C. At the time when the duo ended up at the ancient outpost, and I'm not taking chances like this. It's a risk I'm not taking, the ship is a flying colony we have children on board the ship."

"These guys think that if I can't make that choice I should make room for someone who does, and that attitude is enough to hit them with insubordination. And with that if they expect me to make that choice, they're out of their damn minds. Because I won't, the safety of my people matters more, any decisions I make could affect the next of kin. And is it just possible you don't make colonel or general, without knowing the dangers."

"Of making the big decisions, Colonel, because that decision could very well destroy the entire crew here. Whatever decisions I make could affect the next of kin young man, keep that in mind. But is it just possible that he was thinking like a skilled colonel or 2 star general when he told you that." Hammond said with a warning growl and Jack swallowed hard as Daniel moved to him as he straighted up then as he said it to him.

"But take into account my opinions after we just had the entity hijack the damn computer, I was going to negotiations with it. But you remember my suggestion after it told me why it attacked us. We can download it into a better CPU, before sending back through the gate. I know you, you'd have agreed with me had it not been for the fact, he turned into Shelby with his idea." he said and Jack swallowed at that remark then.

"Yes I remember, and I agreed with you, it's not the time to start these aggressive decisions, after it put Walter in the infirmary, you just barely get electrocuted. While Sam gets hijacked, your idea regarding the right decisions here. I'd take your ideas over his every time, because I agree with you, it's not the time to get reckless like this." he said and Jack swallowed a third time as he saw the paternal look in his eyes at Daniel.

"How old is he if you're saying it like that Admiral?" Will asked and he said it firmly. "He's 45 years old, but I'm 62, 17 year difference, but I've served in the military for 35 years. If he was anyone he'd be Elizabeth Shelby, while I'm Jean Luc and Daniel is you after serving under me for the better part of 17 years. The 17 years includes my putting him in combat and weapons training, before he joins the military and with that."

"Jacob, Hank and I watched him grow into his skin and he knows our thinking strategies to the point. That he knows that we're not risking innocent lives on a move as risky as this. And he knows my thinking strategies, and the duo's, too well to the point, that he doesn't have to hear our opinions. That he can anticipate what we want him to do and he, Sam, Lou and Charlie do it without needing to and with that in mind, it's I'd tell him."

"To tell him or whoever it is that is take chances like this, that it's not the time and it's a risk, neither he, nor we, are taking right now." he said and Will nodded as Daniel said it. "Yes that's exactly my point, when he's not around you decide to go with my ideas and Sam's ideas every time. But together, we, Lou and Teal'C make up the true starting point in the senior staff crew, we're veterans in the fight, but I'm now a lieutenant colonel."

"Lou the same, Sam is major, and we go down the list from there, and with the fact our original CMO is on the base still, while our new psychiatrist is also working here. Teal'C has Worf's position as security chief on the base right now. But of the original team the five of us stayed who we are. But think it over: what was our mandate, and directly translated into their's?" he said and Jumper answered that as he crossed his arms.

"We're the portion of Starfleet that doesn't go with full out military attack mode, however the NID are, we're exploration and R&D. But we're what the majority of Starfleet is in the movies and tv show, and only a select few are looking into full outright attack mode. But your training, since you activated resulted in you getting promoted three times in 6 years and in our eyes, of the two of you, you'd make 3 star by the time you hit 45, son."

"As to that, you certainly followed this easily." he said and Daniel nodded to him. "You all agree with me it's not the time to rush it. And your thoughts on outright attacks waste time and energy we don't have. But every argument and counter argument in the fight, is the one you keep getting into with Jack, dad. Just spoken in a different way and to quote the fight from their point of view, as every time they do this at the moment."

"It results in a bull session and the bull session was just the beginning regarding the undercover stint here, but the bull session follows the same pattern every time. And it's the argument and counter argument that we hear repeatedly every time we watch year four for the crew. Only the latter is suffering the frustration you and the president don't want to risk lives on a needless application here." he said and Hammond nodded gently.

"If George was my 21st century counterpart then I can take a guess that Ben Maxwell is Jonathan's, Commander?" Picard said and he nodded. "Aye Sir, but I'm a mixture of Miles and Will, as to that, why risk lives on a needless application. When it could make this war even more volatile then it already." he said and Jumper nodded. "Good point and you're right, alright, let's have it, if this started after Sokar." he said and Daniel nodded to him.

"Well look at the paraphrase the day he pretended to be undercover, and the stint started Sirs, Sam, Teal'C and I were watching that episode the day before this mission started. But worded in the NID's words now and I'm saying his exact argument to you, but it's 'The core of our mission was to go through that gate and gather technologies to defend against Goa'uld incursion, am I right.'." he said and they crossed their arms at that.

"They're out of line with that attitude as was he by mouthing off to George that day, and we don't steal from friends either." Jacob said and he nodded. "Well to go further as his attitude did a complete 180 that day and I saw more to it in it, 'Well with all due respect, Sir, that just plain stupid. And since the joint chiefs won't approve of our back up plan we have no choice. We have no choice to steal what we need to get what we need.'."

"So whats your counter remark to that." he said and Hammond said it for all of them sternly. "As long as I'm leader of this facility we will hold ourselves to the highest moral ethical standards, code phrase, our morality, is not getting destroyed just to save earth." he said and he nodded. " 'And once to the Goa'uld finish wiping us out, because we have nothing to defend ourselves, I'm sure we'll all feel great about ourselves.'."

"And our ethical standards.'." he said and Hammond nodded as he exchanged looks with Jacob and the seven as Jumper repeated his remark. "As long as we lead this base and this program, we will hold ourselves to the highest ethical standards, Colonel. We're not risking making this situation even more volatile then it is already right now. And based on insufficient evidence, is that clear, Colonel?!" Jumper said with a snapped off growl.

"That's their argument, the argument in the Stargate program, but that's the SGC version to this. But that's what their counterpart to their future in crime was paraphrasing in his explanation to the captain. when he arrested him at the time, Sir. The same exact argument just worded differently, that's the Stargate version now, into the NID's repeated arguments with you as you're not risking an interplanetary incident."

"But the Starfleet version was worded differently, but it's still the exact same fight, so if you were admirals in Starfleet, whats your final decision on the subject here?" he asked and they nodded as Hammond said it for all of them firmly. "Worded differently to what Ryan just said, but still the final say on the subject here at the moment right now. 'Yes we maybe at war, but that's no excuse for that attitude and insubordination.'."

"And as long as we're the high leadership in the committee, we will hold ourselves to the highest moral, ethical standards. But our first orders were perform recon, determine threats and if possible make peaceful contact with these planets. But as long as we and the IOA run this program we will hold ourselves to the highest ethical standards. Our prime directive is there for a reason gentleman and we will not break it, is that clear.'."

"I hear you son, so just quote the underlying subtext of this schizo effective disorder they're suffering from. If you chose today when O'neill was out of the room to get me, and the sextet the truth. Because I guarantee that it's getting all of them a very long sentence here." he said to him at that. "That's their's argument, keep going if this was Maxwell, what's the subtext right now, Daniel." Hammond added for all of them gently.

"I'm quoting the paraphrasing in the argument/counterargument with you and the joint chiefs so with that. So think about it if they told you some conspiracy theory to rationalize why they just committed mass genocide." he said and Jacob crossed his arms. "But whatever circumstances you may have uncovered or encountered, why didn't you tell us?" he asked and Jack felt his heart start pounding as Picard crossed his arms.

"And wait six months while the beauracrats are sitting around reading reports trying to figure out what to do. They don't know what's going on there, but you should.'." he said and Sam nodded. "Here it comes, I hear the paraphrasing in that and it's voiced in the same way as Jack's remark at the start of the stint. But dad are you hearing this as well, the attitude is exactly the same?" she asked and he nodded to her as he answered her.

"Yeah honey I do and keep going son, to repeat that remark, Colonel, whatever circcumstances you may have uncovered, why didn't you notify us exactly. I believe that's SOP when uncovering important information you're to report it directly to the SGC leader and through them. Right to the joint chiefs, so why didn't you notify us of this, whatever it might be?" he said sternly and he repeated that as the crew looked at Jack.

"Yes, but their arguments in this are: And wait six months while the beauracrats are sitting around reading reports trying to figure out what to do. They don't know what's going on out there, but you should, you know what it's like to be under fire." he said and they exchanged looks. "Yes, but you're not under fire right now." Hammond said and he nodded as he went to next piece on the argument then as he said it at that.

"Lives are at stake." he said and Jumper answered that one. "Who's lives exactly?" he asked and Picard crossed his arms as he finished that. "We have to act now." he said and they nodded as Jacob answered that. "Why exactly, we rush the net and we put more innocent lives at risk, it's too much of risk at the moment and right now. We need to take things slow, before we do anything, because for all we know that could make it worse."

"And yes I hear the debate alright, the NID arguments are matched up completely to Maxwell's. And Maxwell was suffering a case of grief stricken paranoia and wanted to go proactive just to head it off. And they're all suffering this psychosis at the moment, the system lords haven't touched us, since we had the summit meeting four years ago. If your theory regarding the messages he gave you was bang on that's the clincher."

"But Cronus got his hands on your androids, Nirrti died by her lust for power and as for Ba'al that was an unintentional hijacking at the time. And of the SGC personnel, only Jack is suffering a psychosis, said psychosis regarding the god damn mission to Iraq and Desert Storm. While the others are dealing with a different version of said psychosis right now." he said and Daniel nodded to him as he answered him as he said it then firmly.

As he waved to Sam and she nodded and moved to his side as Teal'C and Lou did the same thing. "Under fire, lives are at stake, act now, sound familiar right now Jonathan, because unknowing or not. It's you're quoting words given out by your future double after his family was destroyed. A man I had to arrest twice and just barely prevented from taking more lives, 18 months ago." Picard said to him firmly and Daniel nodded.

"And you're the only one thinking straight right now when you put this under the scope, as to that, I'm 37 years old and then at that age. I'm seeing the war and in the right way a seasoned officer of your rank and higher does right now. And this war is a waste of time and resources we don't have to make a mistake. You had the right idea dad in your plannning and yet Jack just barely gets himself killed in the aftermath to Euronda."

"You see my point right now, think about when we arrested Apophis at the time, but to put this bluntly, you're looking at Maxwell. And the captain's evaluation of him when he had to arrest him twice, but yesterday was a prime example. That situation was a wargame, it was a test, you said that Thor dropped in at the full disclosure meeting when you told the IOA the truth." he said and he nodded as he answered him gently.

"Indeed and it was to prevent the gate from ending up in NID hands a second time right now. Kinsey called him by name, but he berated him for that, because the only ones who could were us of the SGC." he said and Daniel nodded do to him. "The system lords are trying to shove every conceivable way that this war was no war at all. And yesterday the test results just came back by my getting captured, supposedly, by them at the time."

"The system lords were running a wargame for us, yesterday, and I gave you my report this morning after the mission ended. And I'm relieved you were still here Jacob, because you're his chief lieutenant still in his eyes." he said and the duo nodded slowly. "So again." she asked and Daniel nodded to her as Sam said it. "You know what it's like to be under fire, Sirs." she said and Jacob nodded as he answered her as they did it again.

"Yes but you're not under fire right now, that was a wargame." he said and Lou said it. "Lives are at stake." he said and Hammond answered that. "Who's lives, Yu never hurt you son, and though fatigued when you got back. It was he was playing a few board games with you and gave you real food to eat." he said and Daniel ended it with the next remark as they, Teal'C and Will all looked at him sternly as Jack felt his heart falling.

"We have to act now." Daniel said and Jumper answered that for the nine of them firmly. "Why exactly, we rush things and we put more innocent lives at risk, you made your point clear when you told us Anubis was back on the loose. We wipe them out and we have someone even worse then Apophis, Sokar or Hathor on the loose as a result. Letting Nirrti go resulted in a massacre at the time as a result and with that now."

"Whatever Intel they gathered or someone procured this past month, since we neutralized Anubis's weapon is not worth the time to look into. And it's because if this was a trap, then it's enough they're trying to get us to break into the neutral zone. And that could make this war even more volatile then it is already. So why should we risk more lives at intel that a possible defector gave us and risk a war just to check it out."

"Because you're not under fire, there are no lives at stake and we need to take things slow without jumping too soon now and yes I hear the argument. These guys have lost their damn reality button, because of the system lords after Sokar came into the picture. And Oneill's lost it after getting arrested by Hathor, Nirrti and Ba'al and that sums it up, he's suffering a damn psychosis in this here." he said and Daniel nodded to him softly.

"Yeah exactly, that's exactly my point, the only reason I don't push the limits is because my thoughts are I'm turning into a 37 year old version of you guys. But think it over in command training, which of us would make it to 2 star by their next birthday. And are the youngest general in the history of the joint chiefs?" he asked and Gates answered that. "You would son, your thoughts are just like ours and with that in mind right now."

"I see that if you were the one running the base, we wouldn't have lost 200 soldiers in seven years at the time and it's because of this at the time. But then as a skilled tactician you saved earth so many times you'd have made four star by the time we hit whoever her alter ego really is." he said and Daniel nodded. "Yeah that's exactly my point, his attitude has him stuck at colonel till he risks killing himself to save the planet."

"Me, I've moved up the ranks three times in seven years and I sound like you when I put these things under the scope. But the argument is going in the run around and it's because they're all suffering psychosis, because they're all suffering a schizo effective over the war with the system lords and there is no war. There never was a war, and it ended the second Nirrti was killed and Mot was an add on, it's over with."

"So with that in mind, to confirm that thought if Yu contacts us in the next hour we can learn it that way, but the only wars we were ever truly in were with Apophis and Anubis. The others were all renegades and they signed their death warrants by attacking earth, Apophis declared war on Yu and Cronus by attacking us, as did Hathor, Sokar, Isis, Seth, and Nirrti, but there never was a war here." he said and they all nodded as they got it.

"You trusted me for negotiations and I'm great at hardball when it comes to that, but he blew our latest breakthrough. Because he wanted to do it his own way even when he asked me to give him an alternative. He still did it, Sirs you know me, I'd never go for violence that quickly in these cases. But we can get more done by talking then constantly going to random violence right now." he said and Jumper smiled in pride at him gently.

"Yes and you're thinking like a seasoned general if you're thinking like that, at our age it's acting like diplomats. But at our age we're looking at diplomatic solutions to aggressive negotiations and with that. Jean Luc is on the edge of making general as well, but you and Will are just like us when it comes to these situations right now. And your concerns should be the safety of everyone, not just your team, but the bystanders."

"As he said, is it possible you don't make colonel or general without knowing the dangers of making the big decisions. And he's right, we have to evaluate very carefully before making decisions, but that's why we reached this level in our careers now." Hammond said to him and he nodded. "Well at the current moment the only one not thinking straight after what you just saw in my memories is Jack right now and with that."

"The reason the NID are giving you and the joint chiefs this many problems is because they're all suffering the same psychosis Maxwell was. Regarding the Cardassians, but exact same debate, and evaluation, they're crossing lines not meant to be crossed. Because they're all suffering a schizo effective over the war with the system lords and said war is no war at all, it's just two and the others are renegades at the moment."

"But I'm calling him out on a section 8, for a more intense evaluation, and them with him right now. Because it's because of just three of said renegades that has him acting like this and his mind is on the fight or flight response and has been ever since Ba'al came into the picture." he said and they nodded. "Their minds have all lost their damn reality button since Sokar came into the picture and Cronus took Ra's place as our primary."

"Evidently you been listening to us way too much if you figured it out this fast son, but you're right, you're absolutely right. So why risk a war on non existant evidence just to check, but for the very same fact that Yu was testing us yesterday. He was testing this psychosis of the NID operatives and Colonel O'neill. And the test results just came back, as they're all suffering a damn psychosis." Carson said sharply and Matheson nodded.

"I really hope he confirms that theory later, but if he considers me his Lo'taur and Jacob his lieutenant still. That's our chance as we get the confirmation from him since he's the most cooperative system lord in the bunch as we saved him and Cronus that year. But he and Ra are both possibly earthborn, Ra, yes that's a definite, him. I'm not entirely sure of, but he's the oldest of the system lords and the most influential as well so with that."

"I've got to ask him that question upfront, but it means my acting as his most loyal follower in order to do so. So they are the ones, now that Ra was dead, we have to get in touch with, and before Apophis attacks us a second to time. But either way we reset and make a deal with the trio themselves and our lives are like they are now. But Ra dead, and Apophis declares war on Cronus and Yu afterwards by attacking us at the time."

"But that's it, dad, you said that the system lords had no wish to bother us when they're so busy fighting each other, right?" Daniel asked and Jacob nodded. "I did, that's the way the Tokra wanted it to remain at the time here. But though you knocked off four and the others were renegades, it's enough that while the system lords are so busy badgering each other, they leave my home planet alone." he said and Daniel nodded to him softly.

"And with that you need to understand something here, but there wasn't a war, there never was one with the system lords. I mean think it over, who started this, five years of fighting him. And now comes an Goa'uld/ancient hybrid. While the others had indirect contact with us by being released from their stasis chambers and the last was hiding on earth while the other was acting as a Jaffa." Daniel said and their eyes widened at that.

"There's the psychosis right now, they're scared out of their minds they're going to end up in another version of their previous POW stints. And that they're crossing lines not meant to be crossed just to get the technology needed to defend ourselves and we arrested two already. But with that is this, he's seeing himself in the middle of the host selection process and they're dragging Skaara away to be implanted by Klo'rel."

"The box attack we tried on Apophis, Hathor, the orbital attack, and then to top it off is his arrest by Ba'al. While the others are all suffering from the human version of these POW stints. It's PTSD to the highest degree, a schizo effective, Dr. Matheson, and that's why they're trying to get rid of me, they're making me look like I lost my mind so you don't realize they've lost their's." he said and they nodded with stern looks at that.

"They're trying to make it look like you lost your mind so we don't realize they lost their's, out of P.T.S.D., They're all suffering a schizo effective disorder at the moment, regarding the system lords and it's because they're suffering from P.T.S.D.. Yes, alright just who the hell wasn't paying attention to that exactly?!" Hammond repeated with a low growl and Jack swallowed hard at the tone of his voice and Daniel nodded to him.

"We just arrested the man doing repeated misdiagnosis's at the moment, dad, but to quote the remark I gave after Hanson kidnapped Connor. That's normal for the NID, the more crazy you are, the more extreme the situations they seem to be put into. And the more they get chosen for suicide missions and other things, the deadman's switch. As it is, that's why they're trying to get rid of me at the moment right now, as to why."

"Though I choose some crazy ideas, mine don't cross the line between crazy and needing a section 8 called out. Simply because I see things you don't catch here in the base and to the joint chiefs and president. But I'm the one thing keeping you from crossing the line and doing what Bauer did and sending a Mark VII warhead to a planet. With soil that is enriched with naquada, you know when not to cross the line and with those words."

"Sir, my ideas actually result in getting us results however their's result in destroying our bonds with our allies. I mean if we started when we first met Ra, I'd have found the outpost and we'd have the technology needed to protect earth, start further back, like ten years in advance and we can prepare for the long run. But twenty years in preparations and we're unbeatable now, but this is what Hannibal Smith really meant."

"Give me a minute, I'm good, an hour I'm great, give me six months, I'm unbeatable.'. If we start 22 years in advance prior to meeting Ra, and we have everything we need. We meet the sextet, build the bonds, Earth is protected because we have the technology the Stargate program is confiscating all alien artifacts in technology we find, the Goa'uld hiding on earth we save that for when my unit was in its 1st, 3rd and 4th years."

"For any skilled half and half, every second counts and we need it all, which is why we've lost 80 men in the side of eight years. But before we can get the job done, the black ops department is always giving us less then the time allotted need to to do this job. But the attempted murder charge on ten counts, with Kennedy running the NID, he wanted Teal'C and Charlie so they could study the damn things, then, close to a year later."

"Maybourne tried again with the Tollan, but Teal'C and I are not part of the military and to him, they're not under any nations jurisdiction. So what rights do they have in their eyes, remember what you decided as long as you ran the base?" he asked and Hammond crossed his arms as he repeated the remark. "As long I ran this facility, we were holding ourselves to the highest ethical standards and with those words in mind now."

"We do not steal from friends, holding our friends hostage or any of the other illicit activities they have been doing. They want to me change from what I've become these last five years, than I'm changing back as of now. If Tonane was a test it just made it clear, that their demands for results are turning me into something I'm not right now." he said with a low growl as he nodded as he went further then as he said it.

"If you were my cadet from the day we met, your opinions I'd take in a heartbeat, you three: you, Sam and Lou, I'd take in a heartbeat. Because our families had been friends for 30 years and I watched you grow into your adult selves as well. As to that right now, meeting Jack and the NID turned me into this, well I'm changing back right now." he said with a firm tone and Jack swallowed hard as the trio exchanged looks and he said it then.

"The NID was chosen on the acts of being full black ops dad, I mean think about it: what do the CIA do to the planetary government agencies: in regarding conspiracy theorists?" Daniel asked and their eyes narrowed at that. "Truth serum, or worse, and to prevent government secrets from being spilled to the press. It's arranging a murder like what happened to the reporter that died five years ago." Jacob said with a furious growl then.

"Jack may have acted shocked when we learned from the Medronans that the touchstone went missing. But it was made clear now that though he never truly stole any technology till the undercover stint he thought they had the right idea at the time. To us, the SGC, we never stole technology from our friends and allies. And to him, that was now just plain stupid when he may have made it sound convincing that day."

"But I practically was ready to report him to you for attempted murder as I still had the pager. You asked him to go under cover at the time back then, but here's the catch now. But that was throwing him in with his own kind, he tried to kill me or make me look like I lost my mind to get rid of me first now. As to why, this was another test for him now, as you heard from Omac, they saw what happened to me in the future."

"To them, he took this job and showed his true colors now, and he was being arrested for every charge that they tried the federation for. But that's what Travell really meant, it's she was talking to you when she said you have now regained their trust. She meant the bulk of the SGC, not him, but us, she meant us now." he said to him and Picard crossed his arms at that as Sam, reading through what he meant, finished his remark off then.

"Omac, was that what you were hoping for, when they decided, I decided, he should go undercover that he'd expose himself as the traitor and murderer he really is. And once the mission was done, I'd arrest him along with the group we arrested and Makepeace?" Hammond asked and Omac nodded to him. "Indeed that's what I was hoping for alright and with it, after Dr. Jackson escaped the base after his wife died at the time."

"When you were looking for him, he came straight to Lya and me and asked that we examine his memories. To us, and just after you met Thor, we saw we found our new representative as the fifth race against the Goa'uld. But he showed us that the NID framed him for attempted suicide after his wife died. And then he told us to work further back in his memories after he let us go at the time, before you saw the Ur Mah Gul."

As we proved, we have the technology meant to escape the base, he decided to show us the real truths in regarding the NID. And the fact that they wanted to use Teal'C for scientific research. He then told us everything and instead of asking him to talk about it, we dug into his memories that two month period he was in hiding from you. He told us everything and that O'neill was now working for the NID and we found proof of that."

"And that's when I learned the added truth at the time regarding their capture on the planet you designated 636. Knowing now why he had to see us, we realized he needed us, as his friends and mentors. I was so disgusted with your other department, that I showed what he showed me to Minister Travell. When we told you we had Skaara crashlanding on our planet we decided to add Lya to the list of counsel members."

"And then when the stealing started getting out of hand, we all decided enough was enough and asked you, if you wanted to keep our friendship. Than you had to apprehend the criminals yourself, and your military leaders agreed to it and I added the proviso that O'neill was of such in the process. And we all decided to add him to the list of criminals we wanted you to apprehend." he told him and he nodded with a growl at the news.

"Well after hearing that, I'm seeing this as he deserves to be put through exactly as what you went through. After what we saw in your memory and I don't care if that's fair or not, Danny, you had no business going through that mission at the time." Hammond said with a furious growl at the news. Feeling the warmth in his heart at Hammond now using his childhood nickname then, he nodded to him as he answered him at that.

"Omac was right, I was in on it, case of cross and double cross, but I wanted to let you know the truth. And while he was off world at the time, I was playing along with Makepeace at the time, till he exposed himself, and with him, Jack." Daniel told him and he nodded firmly to that remark. Hearing his tone, Jack knew he was screwed with him and Jacob then at that as Janet felt her heart lurch at the remark as she looked at him.

"Omac was a good friend, I earned his respect by showing I was everything they wanted in a prize pupil. He also had a soft spot for Sam as she, like me and Teal'C let them go, to them and Lya I was now a close friend and future apprentice. So they wanted the operatives you arrested and along with Makepeace and Jack arrested immediately at the time here dad." he added and he nodded as his eyes narrowed in anger at that.

"The joint chiefs set him up to prove he's really NID?" Janet said in shock and he nodded. "Yes and you with them, and don't give me this crap that's fair or not, you could have killed me twice at the time. You saw my memories so who's damn side are you on now that you know the truth. Your oath is do no harm and that includes emotional, and you did so much that nothing is changing my thoughts in it." he said to her sternly then.

"And as we've said, for the greater good sacrifices must be made and yours was you just turned into a trust operative with you knew it or not. But there are a lot things we do we wish we could change and as sure as hell can never forget. But the whole concept of chain of command ignores the idea of free will, so as soldiers. It's we have to do some very awful stuff, or following orders like you trained to, it doesn't make it any easier."

"And it sure doesn't make it right, but it does put some of the responsibility on the people giving the orders. To keep their trust we decided to follow through on the request, Daniel knew about this plan of ours, because he spoke to the duo. Before Thor came back into the picture and though you arrested Makepeace and the others. You didn't get him, and it takes three more years for you to arrest all of the agents still on earth."

"But that's why he chose to tell you now, because we arrived." Jumper said sternly to her as she looked at them in shock at that. "What's wrong, the fact that I made their decisions for them after the orb infects the entire base. Or is it that Daniel was waiting till he was alone with Sam and me to get the truth out, because the second I heard this. I was having you, Jack and Makepeace coutmartialed." Hammond added and she sighed.

"Oh what, what's the problem exactly Doctor, the fact that you've been duped or the fact he's been exposed for what he is to you exactly. The committee had the right idea, expose him for the liar he is and it's back to being clean cut and honest. But are you paying attention to that, no you aren't, and it's because you're still holding Hathor and the damn technology against him?" Will added firmly and she swallowed at that.
