AN: Another objection brought to my notice: short chapters. I'm an "episode writer" so my Chapter cuts occur where comercial cuts would. If you read it that way, they may not seem so short!
"Cassi, what are you doing here?" Daniel cried as he saw who it was emerging from the Stargate.
"Did General Hammond send you to aid us?" Teal'c asked.
"Ah, not exactly, Tik" Cassi answered.
"What did you do?" Daniel asked, recognizing something rebellious in her. Jack got the same look.
"Nothing" Cassi answered with a grin, "Just left them a little puzzle is all"
"Please tell me they'll be able to solve it" Daniel pleaded.
"Oh sure! Don't worry Uncle Danny!" Cassi dismissed his anxiety.
"Besides, it shouldn't take long to get Mom and Dad back now that I'm here" she continued, moving to join them, "I'll just find them and teleport them......" Her voice trailed off as a look of complete disbelief fell over her face.
"What? What is it?" Daniel asked, glancing in the direction Sam and Jack had gone.
"I can't find them!" a bit of hysteria snuck it's way into her voice.
"What do you mean," he asked, "They're not...not...."
"No" she answered slowly, "They're there, I just don't know where. They're being blocked!" she announced astoundly. Block a telepathic probe?! How was that possible unless....unless another telepath was blocking her!
"The Bar'ak'Tu! They must be telepathic!" she cried.
"So...what does that mean?" Daniel inquired.
"I have to get under their shield. If I'm close enough not even a telepathic black can shield my parents from me"
"Jack O'Niell and Major Carter went that way, toward that tower" Teal'c told her and started walking. Cassi hurried to keep up with him.
"Wait!" Daniel called. The two stopped and looked back. Daniel saw the futility of any objection in their expressions. He grimaced and joined them.
"How do I get talked into these things?" he mumbled.
"Perhaps you are too easily swayed, Daniel Jackson" Teal'c replied. Cassi's infectious laughter filled their minds. Then she suddenly stopped.
"Wait. If the Bar'ak'Tu are telepathic, they know we're coming" she told them.
"So...that means....what exactly?" Daniel asked. Cassi was stumped.
"I have no idea" she answered and resumed marching down the lane. They became quieter as they neared the white tower, which they found was surrounded by a village of low buildings and odd gardens. Daniel and Teal'c looked at Cassi but she just shook her head. She was still too far away.
I'll have to get closer. I can tell they're near, but I can't get a positive lock on them, she related to them. She crept closer, Daniel and Teal'c hanging back while she moved. Suddenly, four or five large beings erupted from behind buildings. They caught the last two members of SG-1 and Cassi by surprise. Cassi was agitated by her surprise, telling herself she should have been paying more attention.
You might as well not try she said to the struggling Teal'c, They'll just find you telepathicly.
So the three were taken to the tower with ease.
