Wanting answers.

"What do you mean you can't find any cause for this!" General George Hammond asked Dr. Janet Fraiser, one of the SGC's resident medics, as they stood by the bedside of the comatose Major Carter.

"Exactly what I said sir." the mild mannered doctor told the General. "I've tested her blood for toxic substances that she may have come in contact with on the planet that could have caused this, I've done a C.T scan to check for an aneurysm or a tumor. General I've done every possible test I can think of to determine what has put her in this state..."

"And you've come up with nothing."

The doctor looked at the floor.

"I've ran her blood against that of the other members of SG.1, there's nothing any different in her sample than there is in theirs, nothing which could explain her state."

"Exactly what type of state is that doctor?" Colonel Jack O'Neill asked.

"As far as I can tell she's comatose sir, her pulse along with her breathing is barely detectable but she is alive."

"So what do we do now?" Daniel Jackson asked.

"I've already sent SG-3 to the planet to investigate possible causes for this. I want you meanwhile to take the doctor with you to the site where this happened, maybe then she can shed some light on this." General Hammond told the team.

"Yes sir." the Colonel answered his superior officer who then left the infirmary.

"Come on lets go get kitted up." Daniel Jackson told doctor Janet Fraiser quietly seeing that she was extremely concerned about her not being able to find an explanation for what had happened to her friend.

"Yeah." she answered quietly as he gently put a hand on the small of her back and led her out of the infirmary.

"We will find an explanation and a cure for this O'Neill." Teal'c told his friend and colleague confidently before leaving the infirmary to prepare for their mission.

"Yeah well we've gotta find something." he quietly said to himself going over to her bed and looking at her pale face. "We've got to." he repeated stroking her face before walking towards the door.

"You hold on okay." he told the unconscious woman turning around, hoping with every ounce of his heart that somehow she could hear him, and that hearing his words would give her the strength to carry on. "I don't think I could do any of this without you by my side."
