Cassi stopped screaming when the burst through on the other side. She simply shivered in her father's arms. Dr. Fraiser was there already and she came up the ramp to meet Jack. Cassi's eyes slid to look at her, but it seemed as if she wasn't seeing anything.
"She's in major shock" Janet announced. She led the way to the infirmary.
"What happened?" she asked.
"We don't know" Sam answered, "She was in another building and we heard her just...shrieking."
"When we found her she was holding her head and running around the room" Teal'c added. No one could really tell, but he was very worried about the girl. She reminded him of Rya'c.
"Yes, she was running into the walls, almost as if she couldn't see them" Daniel said.
"Well there's nothing wrong with her physically," Janet announced, "Let's run an MRI" Jack silently picked up his daughter again and carried her to the MRI bed. Her eyes stared up, unseeing and the only sound she made was to occasionally whimper.
"It's going to be alright, Cass" he told her as he layed her down and he hoped he wasn't lying. She opened her mouth and a strange sound came out, as if she'd forgotten how to speak. A tear came to Jack's eye, but he wouldn't let it fall. The bed rolled into the darkness.
"That's odd" Janet proclaimed when she'd completed the procedure. Jack was gathering Cassi back up.
"What?" Sam asked as they all clustered around the screen. Janet pointed to the frontal cortex.
"This is the part of the brain Cassi uses for her cognitive powers. Usually there's a lot of activity there so it's red" she explained.
"It is green now" Teal'c observed.
"That's right" Janet confirmed, "That means there is little or no activity in that part of the brain."
"What does that mean?" Sam asked. Jack joined them behind the table. Cassi was getting heavy in his arms but he refused to put her down.
"Anyone notice the lack of her fear in our heads?" he asked.
"Are you suggesting she's lost her telepathic powers?" Daniel asked.
"That may not be all" Janet suggested, "All of her psychic abilities are housed there"
"Even if she's just lost her psychic powers, she should be able to talk" Sam objected.
"I don't know" Janet shook her head, "I have to do some more research. Meanwhile, I want to keep her here so I can keep an eye on her" Jack made sure she was settled in, but then didn't leave. Eventually both Teal'c and Daniel took breaks from the vigil to eat and sleep. When they came back niether of the girl's parents had moved.
"Sam, Jack, you guys should get some sleep" Daniel suggested gently.
"We have to be here when she wakes up" Sam replied.
"It has been many hours," Teal'c said, "Yet Dr. Fraiser says she will not wake soon. You can not help her if you allow your bodies to weaken." Still neither one moved.
"Sam...."Daniel prodded. Carter nodded and stood, though she was unable to pull her eyes away from her ailling daughter.
"I will stay" Teal'c added. The mother finnaly started for the door.
"Colonel?"
"I'm not leaving her" O'Neill said quietly.
"Jack..."
"I'm not leaving her!" he shouted this time, "I'm not leaving" he repeated in a whisper. Sam simply shook her head and left.
