Stargate SG-1
"Coming Home"
Chapter 7
Jolinar's memories were resurfacing again and Sam didn't want to tell Janet, Jack, or the general because they would keep her from going on missions. She didn't want to be pinned to a desk doing paper work and calculations. Sam joined the SGC instead of NASA, she had wanted to go into space and the stargate was alot better than a space shuttle. Samantha Carter was in her room onbase laying on her bed staring at the ceiling.
"What's wrong with me!?" Sam asked herself aloud. "Why are these memories resurfacing now?" A memory of Jolinar and Lantesh resurfaced, they were talking about a mission, but she couldn't quite tell what the mission was about. The memory seemed important, but she did not understand why the memory was important.
Ever since she had seen her father she had a weird feeling and then the flashes started. Maybe her father's visit had triggered the flashes, but why would those flashes be repeating in her head?
The tunnels were there again and Jolinar and Lantesh were arguing about something. A mission. What were they saying? She couldn't make out the words. Lantesh was so angry and Jolinar seemed determined to win the argument.
A knock came at the door, which interrupted her concentration. "Come in," she called and stood up to see that it was the colonel.
"Hi Carter," O'Neill said sounding alittle nervous.
"Hi sir," Sam said.
"You okay?" he asked her.
"I'm fine, sir."
"Really? Cause you haven't seemed fine since we got back from our last mission. So, what's wrong?" O'Neill asked again.
"Nothing."
"Carter, you missed the meeting this morning," O'Neill informed her. "That's not like you to ditch a meeting."
"I forgot, sir."
"Really?"
"Yes. I'm sorry."
"You know Doctor Frasier said that you weren't feeling well and that's why you weren't at the meeting. Now I believe that you are not yourself and that maybe you need some time off."
"No, sir, please."
"Then tell me what's wrong?"
"If I tell you, then you need to promise not to tell Janet or General Hammond."
"Okay, I promise."
"I've been having Jolinar's memories resurfacing. It's basically one specific mission Jolinar and Lantesh went on, but I don't know what the mission was about."
"Sam, maybe you should take a few days off," Jack suggested.
"No! Colonel, I don't want to be put off SG-1!" Sam yelled at him.
"Hey! Major, don't yell at me!"
"Sorry, sir."
"Sam, if one of those memories surfaces and we're under attack on an alien planet. What if you're not able to do anything, you'd be putting SG-1 in danger. Sam, I know that you don't want to do that especially if the general finds out afterwards. He might take you off of active duty or out of the SGC all together!"
"I know, but I'll be fine. If Janet finds out then she'll overreact and I'll be off duty for twice as long as I need."
"Sam. Please just take some time off. Tell the general that you're going to visit your brother or your dad. He'll let you off duty without a question."
"Okay, fine. I'll ask for some time off, but you can't have a replacement astrophysicist when I come back."
"Oh, don't worry if we need one I'm sure I can fill in. You know I know astrophysicist words like...astrophysicist and blackhole and stargate."
"Sir, somehow I think you'd be better off with a different astrophysicist," Carter told him.
"That's okay, I'm sort of attached to my old astrophysicist," O'Neill told her.
"I feel bad just asking the general for days," she told him.
"Why?"
"Because what if need me?" she asked him.
"Then we'll call you. You do remember where your apartment is, right?" O'Neill asked her joking alittle, but also partly serious.
"Yes. I remember where my apartment is at, and I'll leave my number. Maybe if I relax and sleep for afew days I'll feel better," Carter told him.
"Take all the time you need," O'Neill told him.
"Maybe I should call my dad. Maybe Selmek can help?" Carter thought aloud.
"I'll have him signaled and have him come out to see you."
"Okay, here's my number and address," Sam wrote down her information and handed it to O'Neill.
"Go talk to the general," O'Neill told her.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome," O'Neill told her and watched her leave. Soon, he also left her quarters to signal Jacob Carter with the Tok'ra signal.
