1 Chapter Three
Jack and Sam stood staring at each other for a full ten minutes.
"I don't think us standing here is helping anything." Sam said finally breaking the silence. "Look all I know for sure is that I'm female and I know you." Jack looked at her and answered.
"Yeah, I've got a feeling I know you too." He said, he looked at what they where wearing, it was clear that the two of them were part of some team or another. He squinted his eyes and noticed a name patch of some kind on her.
"Carter" he said, suddenly his mind filled with vivid pictures of her, her laughing, smiling, crying, holding back screams, her trapped, her shooting a weapon, her playfully punching him in the arm and more. The sudden swell of memories nearly knocked him off his feet. Carter rushed over to him, not knowing where her sudden concern for this man had come from. When she touched him she again felt a spark, causing her to release him quickly, she suddenly remembered flashes of his face but it was gone as quickly as it began.
"Yes, we defiantly know each other," she said.

Teal'c, Daniel, Dr. Fraiser, and General Hammond sat in the briefing room. Each one lost in there own thoughts. They had brainstormed for hours but came up with little.
"Okay, Teal'c said a rock was about to hit the gate when we went through, is it possible the gate is just buried?" Daniel asked.
"That is likely Dr. Jackson," Teal'c said.
"Okay so how do we unbury it?" asked Janet.
"I don't think we can," The General said, "It could be under tons of rock there is no way through."
"So our only option is to contact the Tok'ra or the asgard or something, right?" Daniel stated.
"That would be a very logical course of action Daniel Jackson." Teal'c said.
"Okay people, lets get to it" Hammond said, Daniel was already halfway out the door.

Carter searched through her pack for rope or something to get them out of this cavern. So far the only thing they'd discovered about them selves is that she was a Major Carter and he was a Colonel O'Neill, that and the fact that they were very connected.
"Okay Carter any ideas" O'Neill said, feeling like he'd said that a few hundred times before.
"One, call for help." She replied. He sighed, actually that did seem to be there only means of escape so he and Carter yelled for help.
It arrived unexpectedly fast, cutting off the colonel in mid yell. A women looked down at them.
"Do you need help?" she asked.
"That would be appreciated." Said O'Neill straining not to use sarcasm.
She lowered a rope down and they hurried up it.
"Who are you?" she asked. They hesitated and looked at each other.
"I'm Carter and this is O'Neill" Carter said.
"Such strange names." The women replied.
"They easily could be, ya see we kinda can't, quite remember who we are." O'Neill explained. The women looked disturbed by this news at first.
"No matter," she said "I am Kayln Green, this has happened before, often explorers from the Gateway are caught in rumbles and lose there memories or much worse."
"Gateway?" questioned Carter, she looked to O'Neill for an answer but he was as confused as she was.
"Yes," Kayln said, "you may call it something else, visitors have called it chapai, silver ring, annulus, stargate…"
"Stargate, I know that" mumbled Sam
"Me too," O'Neill said.
"Please follow me to the surface, where our village is, we'll see if we can help you." Kayln suggested. Carter and O'Neill nodded in agreement and the three preceded to the surface.
While they walked Kayln told them how one of her people always looked through the caves after the rumbles for anyone who may have been exploring.
"It is a common problem, I would say nearly 1/3 of our village is made up of lost souls." Kayln commented.
"What is this gateway you said we came through?" Sam questioned
"Oh, it is a giant round ring, we believe it was built by the ones with glowing eyes" Kayln stated, "But, I believe it was buried in the last rumble."
"Glowing eyes?" Jack asked
"Yes, they are the aliens that brought us to this planet, the said we had to worship them as gods, when we refused they attempted to make us hosts, that's where they place a creature inside off us that controls us. Thankfully the process didn't work, although I don't know why. They obviously didn't either and were going to wipe us out when the asgard came to our rescue. The asgard are…"
"Aliens, the asgard are aliens, little gray ones" Jack stated.
Kayln looked at him in surprise, "Yes, your memory is coming back!"
"No, just little bits and pieces" He said
"That is better than none" Kayln said.
"The aliens with glowing eyes what are they called?" asked Sam.
"The Goa'uld" Kayln said. In both O'Neill and Carters minds it was like someone had set off a bomb, a flood of memories washed over them, remembering everything from Aphois to Osirirs, about the Goa'uld. Jack looked at Sam's face and knew she remembered the Goa'uld too.
"We know them" O'Neill said.
Jack and Sam stood staring at each other for a full ten minutes.
