CHAPTER SIX
Neefa wandered into the throneroom and smiled as only Jack remained, she asked," Where is the woman Orion?"
Jack replied," I did as you asked my highness and disposed of the body!"
Neefa looked to Jack and noticed something very important missing, she asked," Where is your headband Orion?"
Jack walked towards her and kissed her neck hoping to distract her from that train of thought and found it was working as she relaxed into his hold. He then twisted round until he had Neefa's head trapped in his arms and he watched as her eyes shut slowly. He checked her pulse and found a nice steady one before he gathered her into his arms and laid her on the throne. He opened the doors and said," The highness does not wish to be disturbed and has told me to make sure the prisoners are working hard!" Jack allowed Haton to go in front of him before he slowly followed.
MEANWHILE...
Daniel and Teal'c hammered away at the hard rocks before Daniel whispered," What do you think they did with Sam?"
" I do not know Daniel Jackson but I am sure that Major Carter is fine!"
The Colonel snarled," Would you two pipe down? You want us to get whipped?"
Daniel glared at him but Teal'c raised a hand as he noticed the mine being opened and Haton strode in followed by Jack. Teal'c noticed that Jack seemed slightly more aware than the last time he had seen him.
Jack walked over to them and said," The highness wishes to see you!"
Daniel sighed, obviously Jack was still under Neefa's control but along with Teal'c and the Colonel he followed Jack out without much fuss. Daniel watched as Jack stayed behind Haton but what he saw next made him smile. Jack slammed his arms across Haton's head and he collapsed unconscious.
Jack then turned and smirked," Missed me?"
Daniel nodded enthusiastically but Jack gestured for them to hurry, Jack asked," Who's this guy?"
The Colonel replied," I'm your replacement Colonel Matthew Harding!"
Jack looked to Daniel and smiled as Daniel rolled his eyes but Teal'c was now taking lead and was running for the gate as he heard shouts. Jack looked back and said," Oh looks like her highness woke up from her nap!"
They were pursued through the forest by several men carrying bows, Daniel narrowly missed an arrow but cried in relief as he recognied Sam waving at them from the gate. Jack watched as Daniel dived through the gate shortly followed by the Colonel. He saw Teal'c slightly ahead of him waiting with Sam by the gate but he cried out in pain as an arrow ripped through his shoulder.
Sam gasped as she saw Jack struck down by an arrow but she watched him stagger to his feet and kept running towards them. Teal'c caught him as he stumbled and the three of them stepped through the gate.
IN THE GATEROOM...
Daniel shifted the Colonel off him and got to his feet to watch anxiously for his friends and smiled as they came through but gasped as he saw an arrow portruding from Jack's shouder. Sam watched as shock then a dazed expression drifted over Janet's face and the rest of the female population when they saw Jack. Sam bit back a laugh as she knew exactly what they were feeling but settled for a," We need some help over here!"
Janet and her team hurried over before taking Jack off to the infirmary followed by the members of SG1 but missing one Colonel. Janet tutted at Jack as she tended to his shoulder, Jack just sighed and rolled his eyes. He cried out in pain as she broked the arrow before driving it through his flesh, Janet then cleaned the wound before injecting him with a local anaesthetic. Jack winced as she started on the stitches but he looked up as the General entered.
" Um Sir request permission to transfer back to SG1?"
The General nodded and replied," Permission granted!"
Jack smiled at the rest of his team and watched as they smiled back, after Janet had tended to his wound he and his team was left alone.
" I'm sorry guys for everything!"
Daniel just nodded and said," I'm sorry too Jack, I know you were only following orders and I'm just glad to have you back!"
Teal'c replied," It is the same for me O'Neill!"
Sam smiled at the touching scene but laughed as Jack got to his feet and asked," Um any chance of me getting home and out of this getup?"
Daniel and Sam laughed before Sam said," I'll see you home Jack if that's okay with Janet?"
Janet looked Jack over one more time and then to the mischievious glint in Sam's eyes before replying," Yeah sure but make sure he doesn't overexert himself!"
Sam grinned before helping Jack towards the carpark, Daniel stood shocked before saying," I'll debrief the General then!"
Jack blushed as he got many looks from the women he passed in the halls and Sam sent them icy glares, feeling a slight bit jealous. Sam helped Jack into his car and started the drive home pretending not to notice how Jack seemed very uncomfortable and occasionally tugged at his chainmail vest.
Once at his home, Jack groaned as he saw his reflection in the mirror," No wonder I was getting funny looks back at base! I look like an idiot!"
Sam was shocked by his statement, was Jack really that dumb not to know how gorgeous he looked so to prove this point she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. Jack kissed back before Sam said," You don't look like an idiot Jack, you look very handsome but I'm afraid this outfit has got to go!"
Jack asked," Why?"
Sam replied," Well you see I can't have every woman drooling over you can I? Oh no this outfit is being saved for our private time!"
Jack smiled, he liked the sound of that but he leaned down and kissed Sam again happy to be home and to finally have the woman he loved in his arms.
