General Hammond shook his head. This was the last thing he needed with the
current situation. He ordered the soldiers in the 'gate room to stand
down. Jonas Quinn had called in for a visit.
"Jonas. Welcome back to the SGC. What can we do for you?"
"Um. Not much. We kinda have a plague of rhinovirus on Kelwona and we need some antibiotics. Thousands are dying." The smug traces of a grin were still evident on Jonas' face.
"I get Dr Frasier to organise a shipment for you. Anything else?" The General felt slightly guilty for being so blunt with one of their allies, but now was not the time nor the place for Jonas' unstoppable smile.
Dr Frasier was subsequently called. "Yes Sir. I'll just tell my patients where I'm going then I will bring some right up. Sir. Yes Sir." Janet hung up the phone and headed out of her office and into the infirmary. Her blood ran cold when she saw that Jack's bed was empty. Then, she remembered- this was Colonel O'Neill and knowing him he was probably wandering around base, looking to pick a fight. She thought no more about it.

Steven Lauer froze as he felt the gun against his head, and the oh too familiar voice of Colonel Jack O'Neill.
"Jack! Nice to see you again." He slowly turned to face his former colleague.
"Still not too bright are you Steve. I said stay still." Jack menacingly took the safety off of the gun.
"OK." Steven gulped. "To what do I owe the pleasure Jack?"
"I need your help."
"Oh?"
"And a plane."
"OH!"
"And permission to land at an airport in South Dakota."
"Whereabouts in South Dakota?"
"Anywhere."
"Sure thing Jack."
Jack smiled and lowered his weapon. "I'm glad to hear it old friend." He pulled Steven into a hug.
"so. If you're not trying to kill me, and you just wanted a favour, WHY THE HELL DIDN'T YOU JUST ASK?"
"It's too much fun winding you up Stevey."
"Asshole."
"Thank you."
"So, Jack. Who are you working for this time that you have to come scrounging a flight from me?"
"I'm working for the wonderful institution known as humanity."
"Ooh. That's deep Jack. So who're you gonna kill?"
"What makes you think I'm going to kill anybody?"
"I've known you long enough Jack."
"His name was Thomas Shelby."
"Was?"
"He-"Then, Jack realised it might not be a good idea to tell the more shady of his friends about the Stargate, so he went into cover-up mode. "He is going under another name. But not for much longer if I find him first."
"First?"
