Vala sat in her hotel room wondering how to tell Daniel, she was pregnant. However, this troubled her, as she had been assured by experts she couldn't get pregnant due to her injury. She had an intense feeling something was right. She decided she wouldn't tell Daniel until she figured out what was bothering her.
Carter had realized she was hungry, looking at the clock she realized she had worked the entire night away, and it was now 8 AM. She decided she better get some food from the cafeteria quickly to satisfy her stomach. She was passing through the line when she spotted a thing of blue Jell-O, it popped into her head that Jack would like a bowl. Then she realized she didn't know a Jack. Who was this Jack and why did he keep coming up in her mind.
Cameron was on a flight over the Pacific today, it was still dark outside the plane. It was on autopilot and he was bored. He was imaging being in a fighter, fighting aliens that were attacking the planet, over Antartica. It seemed so real to him. He could hear the sounds, and every time he crashed he could remember the taste of blood in his mouth. Then it occurred to him, it was real. He had fought that battle protecting SG-1, which he later joined and even led the team. Teal'c, Carter, Vala, and Jackson were all part of his team. Memories of Atlantis and Pacifica came flooding back into his mind, he could remember it all now. He had been in the Pegasus Galaxy fighting the wraith when he was taken. Where was he now, and where was his team?
Teal'c lay in his bed with his wife Drey'auc couldn't suppress the feeling he had lost his wife, here she lay right in front of him. Rya'c had made his father so proud, serving Apothis, performing well in battle. His god would bestow rewards on him.
Sheppard and Teyla sat in his apartment watching football game after football game. Teyla was growing weary of the game. Sheppard was finding a new appreciation for the NFL channel.
Cameron had to find out if the others were here like he was or not. Once he landed in Tokyo, he got on the internet, doing a search for Samantha Carter, pulled up numerous articles on Hyperspace. She had just announced the discovery of Hyperspace. He found her office phone listed and decided to give her a call.
"Hello, Dr. Carter," answered Carter.
"Carter this is Cam," replied Mitchell. Carter felt like she was smacked in the head, with another life flooding back into her.
"Cameron Mitchell?" asked Carter.
"I'm so glad you remember me!" answered Mitchell.
"Wait we're part of SG-1?" asked Carter.
"I see it's coming back to you as well," replied Mitchell.
"I'm married to Jack O'Neill!" shouted Carter.
"Uh yes you are." replied Mitchell, "Do you have clue on what's going on here?"
"No I don't but I think I know who may be behind it! Narim of the Tollana" replied Carter.
"How do you know that?" asked Mitchell.
"Because whatever here is, he is my husband," replied Carter, "You remember what I found when we investigated Tollana?"
"A bomb, and a threat," replied Mitchell.
"Yes, but how did he get us? Who else is here?" asked Carter.
"Last thing I remember we were in the Pegasus galaxy and some ships arrived and was wiping out our ships like paper planes," replied Mitchell.
"Yes, the Hammond had been targetted the weapons was going right through our shields," replied Carter, "My Crew?"
"If we are OK, hopefully, they are as well," replied Mitchell, "If you and I are here, there is good chance the rest of SG-1 is here as well."
"Question is where is here?" asked Carter.
"Parallel universe? alternate reality?" asked Mitchell.
"Don't think so, Narim wanted revenge, he wouldn't have sent us to an alternate reality," replied Carter, "Virtual reality could be a possibility."
Sheppard and Telya was sitting on the couch watching another football game. Sheppard looking at the paper, saw another article about a NASA scientist, discovering Hyperspace.
"Does she look familiar?" asked Sheppard.
"Who?" replied Teyla.
"This Dr. Carter they have had in the newspaper for the past couple of weeks," responded Sheppard.
"Thinking about blondes are we?" asked Teyla.
"What? No, not in that way. She just seems familiar," replied Sheppard.
Sitting in a Cairo hotel Vala looked at the newspaper. There on the front, was a story about a young scientist in the US, proving the existence of hyperspace. All of a sudden memories of a different life came flooding back to her. She ran for Daniel.
"Daniel!" shouted Vala, "I need you now!"
Daniel came rushing in, "What's wrong?"
"Do you remember the Stargate? SG-1 Sam? Teal'c? Mitchell?" asked Vala.
"I see it's come back to you as well! I'm relieved I didn't know if you were real or whatever this was," replied Jackson.
"Wait how long have you known?" asked Vala.
"Since I was translating that tablet," replied Jackson.
"That was two months ago!" shouted Vala,
"Six weeks actually," replied Jackson.
"What do we do?" asked Vala.
"We need to reach out to the others," replied Jackson.
"Apparently she is working for NASA in Houston," replied Vala, pointing at the newspaper.
"Then let's go there and see if she remembers," replied Daniel.
Vala looked around thinking of the test she had taken, and not told Daniel about, "Is this real?"
"I don't know," replied Jackson.
"Well I have something to tell you, I took a pregnancy test two days ago, and it was positive," replied Vala.]
"What?" exclaimed Jackson, "Why didn't you tell me sooner?"
"I didn't know how you would react, and something seemed off," replied Vala, "Guess I know now what felt off."
Mitchell and Carter spent the next couple of days trying to find any leads on Daniel, Vala, Teyla, or Teal'c with no luck. Searches were coming up empty. Mitchell was making arrangements to travel to Houston to meet up with Carter.
Carter was getting ready to leave for work when she heard the front door open, it was Narim coming back from his trip.
"Surprise Sam! I was able to catch a red-eye and get back to you this morning. I was hoping to catch you before you left for work," replied Narim.
Carter feeling very uncomfortable, "Hi sweetie, how was your trip?"
"It went well, my project is coming along nicely. How goes your stuff, find anything exciting. How is that new substance naquadah was it called turning out?" asked Narim.
Carter realized he was interested in the naquadah, he should know more than she did on it, "Nothing interesting yet. Well I gotta go, will talk to you later."
Carter headed off to work, just to escape from Narim. She needed to find her team and figure out what was going on before confronting Narim. Shortly after arriving at the office her assistant called her, that she had a visitor, a Mr. Jackson and associate. Daniel and Vala were shown into Carter's office.
"Daniel! Vala! I'm so happy to see you!" exclaimed Carter.
"You know us?" asked Daniel.
"Yes you don't remember me?" asked Carter.
Vala pulling out a handgun, "That depends where do you remember us from."
"Abydos," replied Carter.
"Oh thank god!" replied Daniel. Vala was putting the gun away.
"Sorry about that but we needed to be sure," replied Vala.
"I understand, Mitchel and I have been looking for word on you all for days," replied Carter.
"Mitchell is here?" asked Jackson.
"He is on his way here, should be landing later today," replied Carter.
"What about Teyla? She was with us when whatever this has happened," asked Vala.
"Can't find any word on her, Jack, Teal'c, Ronin, Sheppard, McKay, or anyone else connected to the Stargate," replied Carter.
"We found you because of your discovery and press," replied Daniel.
"That's how Mitchell found me as well. Guess it's a good thing I came up with that news conference," replied Carter.
Later that day, Mitchell arrived in Houston and made his way to Carter's office. He was relieved to hear that Daniel and Vala had joined them.
"How do we find the others?" asked Mitchell.
"I'm not sure if we can. I think the best chance right now is for them to find us," replied Carter.
"We don't even know who the others are at this point," replied Jackson.
"So what is our plan?" asked Mitchell, and all eyes turned toward Carter.
"Why is everyone looking at me?" asked Carter.
"Your the smartest one in the room," replied Vala.
"Let's look at the facts, Number one, Narim has inserted himself as my husband. Number two, I don't think this is an alternative timeline or reality. My best guess would be virtual reality," replied Carter.
"Virtual reality? As in P7J-989 and the Keeper?" asked Jackson.
"Something similar to it," replied Carter.
"I remember reading that. The Keeper made you all re-live some of the worst moments in your lives to entertain the people in the virtual reality," spoke Mitchell.
"Not something I would want to repeat," interjected Jackson.
"There must be some sort of mechanism to allow someone to escape. Narim must be using it when he goes on these business trips. We need to follow him and learn how to exit the system," replied Carter.
"When is the next trip?" asked Vala.
"Tomorrow," replied Carter.
"Vala and I should follow him, he doesn't know either of us as well as the two of you," replied Mitchell.
"That's true," replied Carter.
They set about planning how to follow Narim the next day, and what equipment they would need.
O'Neill was sitting in his office when he heard a knock.
"Come in," replied O'Neill. In walked Landry.
"Sir. We think we may have found them," spoke Landry.
"Where?" asked O'Neill.
"Washington D.C., near the Pentagon. It looks like they are using the Naqaudah there to mask their presence," replied Landry.
"Seriously?" asked O'Neill.
"How do you want to do this General?" asked Landry.
O'Neill pondering that question for a minute, "Have a team ready to assault the basement and any underground facilities. Have Thor beam the entire building from D.C. to a deserted island out in the Pacific as far from people as possible. Have a team there ready to assault the build."
"Beam the whole building?" asked Landry.
"I'm assuming we can't get a lock on our people?" asked O'Neill.
"Yes sir," replied Landry.
"Then the whole building. We have to get it as far away as possible," replied O'Neill, "Three teams to search where the building was, and another five teams to go into that building and find our people."
"Yes sir will arrange everything!" replied Landry.
Two hours later, O'Neill found himself on a remote deserted island in the South Pacific. SG-2, 3, 4, 5, 11, and 14 were ready to enter the building as soon as it arrived. O'Neill was leading this mission directly.
"Beaming the building in five, four, three, two, one, now!" shouted Landry over the communicators.
Before them appeared a two-story building.
All teams made for their assigned entry points. C4 was used to open the sealed doors. In ran the teams as fast they could. Two minutes later all the teams were running back out.
"Emergency evacuation now!" shouted O'Neill over the communicator. Instead of the teams beaming out, the building was suddenly beamed out. It appeared about three hundred thousand miles away in space, where it detonated.
"They set it up as a trap!" yelled O'Neill, "Everyone make it out?"
"Yes sir everyone is accounted for on our scanners," replied Landry.
