"I'm really starting to hate the bureaucrats up top," Sam muttered as she took a bite of her Jell-O.
"Why is that?" Harry inquired, sipping his tea.
"I almost hate you too, Harry," Sam muttered. "You and the Colonel brought back a Hatak Mother Ship and I'm on the bottom of the list for people to study it."
"Yeah, I hear the science department at Area 51 has their grimy paws all over it," Harry agreed. He and Sam were eating lunch in the Commissary. SG1 was scheduled for a mission that would begin in an hour and a half. They'd already been briefed but Hammond had ordered them to get a quick bite to eat before embarking. "Have they discovered anything new yet?"
"Well, with Teal'c helping them, it shouldn't be too hard," Sam said. "The biggest problem is translation. No one ay Area 51 can read Goa'uld."
"I bet they would love to have me," Harry smirked behind his tea. "No offense intended of course. I actually happen to agree with the 'Bureaucrats' up top. Seeing as how you're a hell of a lot smarter than I am, you're needed on the flagship team."
"That's nonsense, Harry," Sam muttered, a hint of a blush creeping to her cheeks.
"Just because I happen to own an intergalactic battleship and am fluent in five languages, that doesn't make me smart," Harry smirked. "I am good with languages and have an understanding of several races technology. However, I'm no astrophysicist. You'll see; someday, you'll have to save the planet and I won't be there to help you in the least." A beep came from his watch. "Come on, we've got to go."
November 16, 1997: Milky Way: Cimmeria
SG1 stepped out of the Gate. The planet they had just arrived at was lush with forestry and plant life. The stone dais which the Stargate stood upon also had a large stone pillar directly in front of it. A dozen or so people were working around the Gate but had looked up when the Gate activated.
The people started to chant. "Thor! Thor! Thor!" The pillar started to flash light at the area around the Gate. Harry looked up and his eyes widened.
"Oh shit," Harry said. The light passed over Teal'c. "Teal'c!" Harry dived at him to try and throw him out of the way. He was caught in the matter stream.
"What the hell just happened?" Jack asked as he looked for Teal'c and Harry who had disappeared. The people stopped chanting and they were approached by a native.
"Welcome to the planet Cimmeria," the woman said.
Harry rubbed his head as he got up. Teal'c was already standing. Before they could speak to each other, another voice echoed in the dark room.
"Welcome to the labyrinth." Harry turned. He rolled his eyes at seeing Thor's holographic form. The hologram went through his speech (I'd write but I can't find it anywhere and haven't seen the episode in a long time) with both of them listening intently.
"It seems as though I cannot leave this cave without dying," Teal'c assumed.
"I argued with him," Harry muttered shaking his head. "I told him that there would be good people that would get trapped in this thing but no-o-o-o; He just had to make so there was no escape for a Jaffa." Harry turned around and walked out of the room ranting to himself. "Nope, zilch, Nada, bubkiss, no loophole, no failsafe, just a bunch of lies." He turned the corner and his voice dropped. Teal'c followed quickly not wanting to be left behind.
"What do you mean Harry Potter?" Teal'c asked as he matched velocity with the much younger man.
"Oh, I'm just ranting," Harry muttered. "It's kind of annoying when you get caught in something that you yourself helped to design."
"I do not understand."
"I wouldn't expect you to, Teal'c," Harry said putting a hand on his friend's shoulder. "Very, very few people can understand what I mean when I'm ranting." He continued walking forward. "Normally, I'd just beam us out of here but I can't do that seeing as how this entire cave blocks out the beaming technology of the Corona. I'm going to have a serious talk with that man when I get home. Don't worry, Teal'c. I won't let you die in a place such as this." Harry took a turn down another corridor, apparently knowing where he was going.
Two Hours Later
"Just how far away is this cave?" Jack asked as the remnants of SG1 and a local named Kendra walked up a water supply system headed towards the mountains.
"This system stretches on for many miles but we should arrive in ten to fifteen minutes," Kendra explained.
"Well, then, let's pick up the pace," Jack muttered.
Cave
"Alright, here's the exit," Harry said as he and his companion appeared in a large room lit by hanging torches. There was a door at the end of the hall shaped like Thor's Hammer. "You won't be able to pass through it immediately. I'll destroy the device and then you can come through."
"How do you know so much about this device?" Teal'c asked as he approached his friend.
"I'll tell you later," Harry muttered. He was looking over Teal'c shoulder. The latter turned around to see a large creature standing in the door from whence they had come. "An Unas," Harry muttered. "This is the last thing that I want to deal with right now."
"Jaffa, kill this human and we shall feed on its bones," the Unas said, its eyes glowing.
"No thanks," Harry said. He raised his gun and fired several kill shots. The Unas screamed in pain and retreated out of the room. Harry grabbed his side arm and threw it to Teal'c. "It's on kill so be careful. Let's go hunt some Goa'uld." The two left the room and started to shoot at the Unas which was crouched behind a wall. With nowhere to retreat, all of their shots hit their target. The Goa'uld fell to the ground. Harry approached it again and switched his magazine to conventional. He fired fifty shots into the creature's head, killing it.
The two left the hall without a word. Harry left the cave first and destroyed Thor's Hammer using the Staff Weapon. With the rest of SG1 in sight, Teal'c and Harry just lounged until they were within talking distance.
End Chapter
That was what could best be considered a filler chapter. With only about 1200 words, it doesn't exactly match my other works. It just provides a bit of insight into the character's reactions to the Hatak and what exactly is that they're doing. I would have had this up yesterday but I wrote it in school and yesterday school was closed. And I hadn't transferred the file. You should see my next original chapter sometime around Saturday. Until then…
