CHAPTER THREE
Sam looked up from her plate of food when she heard a thrashing sound, she wandered thorugh to the living room and gasped as Jack was writhing about under the blanket. She could hear him gasping," No get it out!" Sam walked closer and saw that Jack was sweating and his skin had gone a ghastly white colour.
She tried to take his hands but he curled away from her touch still stuck in whatever nightmare he was having. She said gently," Jack it's me Sam, Jack you have to wake up."
Jack's eyes snapped open and he breathed in ragged breaths before muttering," Carter?"
Sam nodded and explained," You were having a nightmare."
Jack pushed a hand through his hair and frowned as it was very sweaty, suddenly the pain was back in his stomach and he doubled over. Sam took Jack by the shoulders disturbed by this sudden bout of pain," I think I need to get you back to the base."
The pain in his stomach was unbearable and it seemed that with every fresh stab of pain a painful memory would resurface and he could feel what he was feeling at that time but only magnified. He nodded weakly and said," Yah I think that's a good idea."
Sam was really worried now, usually Jack was the person arguing against trips to the infirmary but to have him admit to needing help; the pain must be bad. Jack got to his feet before groaning again as his stomach cramped and a sharp pain laced through his head, similar to the pain when he had a goau'ld rip into the back of his neck. Sam grabbed Jack by the waist and helped him to her car.
BACK AT SGC...
Trax smiled as he could feel the mental barriers in Jack's mind breaking down one by one and he refocused his energy.
" WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING TRAX?"
Trax swung round to see a very angry looking Ally," I am insuring Samantha is my mate and no others as our laws state I have the right to do."
Ally shook her head and she replied angrily," You cannot do this Trax, these people do not have the same laws as us and they do not apply to our laws. You cannot take Samantha as a mate using our laws and I will not allow you to jeopardise our trade deal. I know you have great feelings of hatred towards Jack but you cannot use your power to hurt him."
" Why not? Our laws dictate that when a potential mate is found the pursuer may do all in his power to claim her as his own!"
Ally sighed and replied," How many times must I have to tell you that our laws do not apply here, we cannot use our abilities to hurt these people. You're abusing your gift Trax and the High Senate will not condone this behaviour."
Trax and Ally stood glaring at one another until an anxious shout broke them from their thoughts, " I need some help!"
Ally looked to the voice and saw Sam supporting a semi conscious Jack, Ally helped her and asked, " What happened?"
Sam shook her head," I don't know, the stomach pain came back and I just don't know."
Ally nodded and as she helped Sam take Jack to the infirmary she shouted," Stay right where you are Trax, I will talk to you later." Trax just scowled and watched as they disappeared before he smiled remembering Jack's weakened state.
Teal'c saw Sam and Ally coming towards the infirmary and said," Dr Fraiser, Daniel Jackson."
She asked," Oh my God what happened?"
Teal'c was by Jack's side and had lifted him up onto a bed so that Janet could observe him closer. Sam replied keeping her fear filled eyes on Jack," I don't know, the stomach pain came back and he began to cry out in pain and muttering get it out."
Janet checked Jack's pupils and watched as they didn't respond to light and his temperature and heart rate were way above normal. Janet muttered," I think Jack is having a panic attack."
Tealc' stepped away from Jack and looked at Sam and Daniel as they both looked very scared, Jack cried out as another pain plagued his stomach and he suddenly felt a searing pain through his right leg. He gasped," Oh god the pain!"
Janet filled an injection before adminstering it into Jack's arm and watched as the tension in his face eased and she explained," A tranquiliser."
" Janet what's wrong with him?"
Janet looked to a very scared Sam before replying truthfully," I don't know Sam, I really don't."
Sam covered her eyes with shaking hands trying to stop the tears from falling, Ally looked to the door and shook her head as Trax stood in the doorway smiling cruelly. She watched as he disappeared and she hurried to find him.
Daniel and the others gathered around Jack as Janet went to find the General, Daniel asked," What did he mean by the pain and get it out?"
Sam shook her head lost for words but Teal'c replied," I believe that the Colonel was remembering the time when Hathor implanted him with a goau'ld."
Daniel nodded and recalled," Yeah he was shouting get it out at that time too but why now all of a sudden is he remembering?"
Sam was once again lost for words as she looked at the clenched hands of Jack so she placed her hands over his hand and gasped as he was freezing. She muttered," He's so cold, almost as cold as he was in..."
" Antartica!" Daniel finished the sentence and you could tell he was slowly working it out and Sam was beginning to understand.
" Have you noticed that Jack was fine until Ally and Trax came through the gate?"
Sam nodded and said," Trax did say they were psychic."
Teal'c asked," You believe this to be the doing of Trax and Ally?"
Daniel shook his head and replied," I don't think Ally is doing this, she can sense people's feelings but she couldn't read mind but Trax can do."
" If he can read minds then he can know a person's worst memories and worst fears and being psychic he could use them to hurt anyone but why?"
Daniel was stumped on that one too but Ally answered it," It's because of you Samantha."
Sam swung round and gasped," Me?"
Ally replied," Trax wants you for his mate and our laws allow a pursuer to do all in his power to harm a potential rival and I am afraid Trax does not understand that our laws do not apply here."
Sam blushed slightly and muttered," But Jack is my commanding officer and my friend, there's no way he could ever be a rival to anything."
Ally shook her head and replied," Deep in your heart you know this to be untrue, ever since I first arrived I have sensed a great love in both your and Jack's heart for the other."
Sam smiled nervously before looking to Daniel and saw him smirking and even Teal'c looked amused so she just covered her eyes and wished she could disappear.
Ally then said seriously," We must stop Trax or Jack will die!"
