"So, you gonna tell me about it, or am i to guess?"
"Well you have a good imagination."
Jack left it there. The lift came to a stop, Jack got out knowing that Daniel would ask him again about it later, Daniel got out knowing that his best friends had finally sorted things out at last, bringing a smile to his face.
"So Daniel...Lara.. er?"
"Croft!"
The two started walking down the corridor in the direction of Lara's holding cell.
"Yes Lara Croft, "
Jack said with a sigh.
"So you know her or something?"
"Not personally, but she's brilliant, wouldn't surpirse me if she had broken out off her cell by now."
Daniel said, jack glared at Daniel as the attending Air man opened the cell door for them, but sure enough, there she was sitting on the military issue bed that had been provided, with her hands cuft behind her back. She didn't stand up to great them, which Jack thought was a little ignorant of her especaily as she wanted their help.
"Ma'am."
Jack spoke first.
"I'm Colonel Jack O'Neill, and this is Doctor Daniel Jackson."
"Yes, yes i know who he is."
She indicated to Daniel. Jack was going to ask 'how?' but his unasked question was answered by Daniel.
"Well of course you probably would"
He turned to Jack.
"She's a world famous Archeologyst,a well studied one, and my track record is well know to the curious."
Daniel smiled at Lara,
"Oh."
Was all that Jack could be bothered to say, he was stuck in a room with two people who studied rocks for a living, then there was the fact that Daniel had sounded like he had a criminal record with the board of archeology.
"Joy."
Daniel frowned at him, knowing what he was thinking.
"Actually i'm an adventurer, archeology is just a hobby of mine."
Jack closed his eyes, she concidered Archeology as a hobby, what was happening to people these days, had the world gone crazy while he had been of world?
"Right, well as exciting as all this is...."
"Excuse me did u say your name was Jack O'Neill?"
"Why yes i did?"
Lara's eyes had wided.
"You probably don't remember me?"
Jack stared at her blankly, he blinked.
"It was about 20 years ago."
"You'll have to help me here... My memories not what it used to be."
Jack said hurriedly.
"And not to be rude or anything but my life span isn't getting any longer so if you could get to the point."
"Well."
That was a little rude thought Lara. Jack just wanted to be able to go and talk to Sam again before their debriefing.
"It was South Germany back in 81?"
Jack still looked at her blankly.
"You were on a misson, of course you were a Captian back then and you and some of your what i assumed were team mates of yours were running away from gun fire. I at the time was on a trip with my mentour."
"Doctor Von Croy."
Daniel aided. Jack was remembering that misson, it had been a complete failure, having his CO die in his own arms, leaving him to take charge of the team, he also remembered that a few years ago he and Teal'c had to relive that memory over again.
"Yes Doctor, he was teaching me the... trade."
She said with a smile, as thought it had been a joke, Jack rolled his eyes as he saw Daniel grin..Jeez this was gonna be a long day.
"And i had gotten my self in a bit of trouble, as i offen do,"
There was that grin from Daniel again, 'oh get a room' Jack thought.
"And i was wandering around well, i was being followed depends on how u put it when i ran into you, litterally."
Thats when Jack twigged, he knew what she was talking about.
"Ah."
"Do you remember?"
Lara asked.
"Um..yeah."
Said with a sigh again.
"you guys aren't going to finish the story for me?"
Daniel was interested he wanted to know how Jack had met one of the world's best female explorers.
"You go, i'm not too proud of this tale."
Lara grinned, she could have reconised his humor a mile off, she also knew why he wasn't proud, this made her laugh slightly.
"Well Doctor, i wouldn't be standing here today if it wasn't for your Colonel here."
"You mean Jack saved your life?"
Daniel looked to Jack who simply raised his eyebrows to him.
"No, but what he taught me, has saved my behind quite afew times."
Daniel narrowed his eyes at Jack.
"What exactly did he teach you?"
Jack looked to the floor knowing what was coming next.
"Well Jack here."
Lara stood by Jack.
"He taught me how to hot wire a car."
"Oh? Thats all?"
Daniel didn't seem to think it was that big'a deal.
"Well i'm not particulary proud of myself cause, i taught a minor how to hot wire a car, and then proceaded to ask her to drive it to the nearest hospital so that me and my team could be seen to."
"Oh i see."
Lara smiled.
"I took it back after we were done."
She said inocently, Jack blinked thinking of how he explained that one to the camps commander.
"Yes, yes you did."
Lara laughed.
"Well you have a good imagination."
Jack left it there. The lift came to a stop, Jack got out knowing that Daniel would ask him again about it later, Daniel got out knowing that his best friends had finally sorted things out at last, bringing a smile to his face.
