CHAPTER 20
Daniel kicked a stone and watched it hit the bottem step and bounce away.
"Were are your freinds?" asked Alexander impateintly. Daniel shrugged, the last family had just gone through the gate. Sam and Jack should have been right behind them but they were not. Daniel had figured that they had about 20 minutes before Apophis arrived and it was a fifthteen minute walk to the Stargate. He tried his radio for the second time but there was no reply. Daniel was sure the radio was working. "Maybe they have taken there Jackets of as it is hot Daniel Jackson" suggested Teal'c. Daniel just nodded. That idea would make sense as the mini radio's were hooked onto the inside coat pocket but Daniel had this really bad feeling creeping up on him that something was wrong.
BACK IN THE CITY
Jack heard his radio crackle, somebody was trying to talk to him but Jack couldn't press the reciever button to hear what they said. "Whats that noise?" asked Cadmus. "It's my radio" Jack explained "it's a kind of communication device". "May i tell Daniel to go through the gate and leave us?" asked Jack quietly "you'll still have us". Cadmus nodded and raised the gun at Jack incase he tried to pull of any tricks.
"Daniel this is Jack" he said into the radio. "Jack, were are you?, Apophis will be here in about eighteen minutes" said Daniel, urgency filling his voice. "Hey Danny boy" said Jack "Me and Sam ain't gonna be getting to that gate were..erm...in shit basically. Daniel i want you and Teal'c to get out of here, make sure the Kribanos are OK". There was a silence, "Jack..." started Daniel. "No good Daniel" Jack cut in "there's no time to come to the rescue...just...just tell Sera that i'm sorry for causing her so much pain and i think Sam will want you to tell her dad and brother bye from her". Sam nodded at Jack and put her head down, despiratly trying to hold back tears. Jack turned the radio off and took it of, throwing it across the stage.
Cadmus couldn't help but smile, "touching" he commented sarcastically. Jack felt anger boil up inside him but he stayed were he was, his mind racing to find a way out of this mess.
BY THE STARGATE
"Should we not go back for them?" asked Teal'c. Alexander shook his head, "there would not be enough time my freinds". Daniel nodded, he felt a tear run down his cheek, "Jack ordered us to go" said Daniel "so lets go". Alexander went through the gate first followed by Teal'c. Daniel stopped before he went through and looked round the clearing, "if i never see this place again it will be too soon" he muttered bitterly and he stepped through the gate. A few seconds later and the Stargate closed down.
