Cassi suddenly looked up from the book she was reading and glanced around for a clock. Of course, Daniel wouldn't have a clock anywhere easily dicernable.
What time is it? she asked the guard posted outside Daniel's front door. The man had been there all day while Cassi sat inside and went through the innumerable treasures in her uncle's apartment. She had only planned on staying until Fray got out of school, but she found herself engrossed in Daniel's journals.
Just think it Cassi coached the guard as he tried to figure out how she had spoken to him. The day had passed to night outside, but she was still surprised to learn it was nearly midnight. She was immediately concerned.
Fray! she called across the city, Call me at Uncle Danny's! A few seconds later the phone rang. It drifted through the air to Cassi's hand.
"Has your mom come home yet?" she asked.
"No" Fray answered from the other end of the line, "She called and said she'd be late. But there's a guard outside my door"
"Something's wrong" Cassi replied, "Mom and Dad aren't back yet" She had felt them leave the planet early yesterday morning, but had not felt them return yet. They should have only been gone 24 hours.
"I'm going to the mountain. If I don't call you in say, 12 hours, get yourself there" Cassi hung up the phone and yanked the front door open, quite surprising the guard.
"We're going to the Mountain" she said and before he could object he found himself in the truck below, the engine running. Before long they were at the Guard Gate trying to get into the Mountain.
"Sorry ma'am, but your pass has been revoked and there's an emergency situation in the Mountain"
"Oh, forget this!" Cassi said and disappeared. She reappeared in the control room. It surprised everyone, but no one was alarmed when they recognized her.
"Dr. O'Neill!" the General barked from behind her, "What are you doing here?"
"What's going on?" Cassi demanded right back. Hammond knew he was dealing with a determined Cassi.
"We don't know exactly" he answered more composed, "They went to P2-4F-7925 yesterday morning on a recon mission and they haven't returned. Their gate code has been locked out. I was about to order SG's 2 and 4 through to check on the situation." But Cassi felt him holding back.
"What else?" Hammond almost didn't answer, but he felt her pressing.
"They went to make a positive confirmation that Nerati was there" Cassi suddenly understood everything. Either Cassie would be a terrible weapon in Nerati's hands.
"I'm going" she told him. He would have objected, but he knew there was no point. The girl joined the two teams in the Gate room while the wormhole was established. No one said anything as they marched through, Cassi first.
"Take cover!"
"Colonel, the Gate's opening!"
"Dad, it's me!" Jack didn't have to look up to know it really was his daughter. He kept firing at the Jaffa who were still advancing. They had surrounded the Gate and SG-1, pressing in on the square closer and closer. None of the humans could leave cover to get to the DHD to dial home, and Cassi's wormhole had just closed behind her. SG-2 and 4 jumped from the platform to the ground to help with their defense. Cassi took a survey of the situation and realized right away what she had to do. She said nothing to anyone, she simply teleported herself to the DHD.
"Cassi, no!" Sam yelled but it was too late. Cassi had dialed home.
"No! You will no escape us!" a voice boomed from overhead. Hathor was watching from the top of a building. Cassi was already starting to teleport herself when the beam from Hathor's hand weapon hit her. SG-2 and 4 were through the Gate. Cassi rematerialized in front of the DHD, lacking the strength to complete her teleport. Jack and the rest of SG-1 immediately started toward her, but the Jaffa already had her.
"Cassi!" Jack cried. His eyes met hers through her Jaffa guard.
Go! Her touch was so light, for a moment Jack thought he had imagined it. All of the sudden, an intense feeling of emptiness filled him, and he watched Cassi's eyes roll back in her head and her body go limp in the Jaffa's hands. He could feel a pair of strong hands pulling him backwards toward the Gate. He wanted to struggle but he was too numb.
All he could manage before he passesd through the event horizen of the Star Gate's wormhole was
"Cassi......."
