"Sir the Goaul'd......"

"Carter, the Stargate!"

"But Sir!"

"But Carter!!"

"AH CRAP!!"

"Well Sir we've got two choices."

"Yeah and both of them are?"

"Uh, Sir?"

"Carter?"

"Look up!"

The Goa'uld was gnawing its way through the elevator cable. Jack and Sam looked at each other.

"Can he chew through that thing?"

"Well Sir I...."

*GROAN* The elevator swayed slightly.

"...Would say yes!"

"Geez! Quick Carter, get back down that hatch and off this elevator before we become human jam on ground zero!"

Carter turned to the hatch and gave it a tug.

"Um Sir, it won't open!"

"What!"

"I'm probably just not strong enough, a little help Sir?"

Jack took hold of the hatch as well and on his count they pulled with all their might.

"God Damn It! Why isn't it working?!"

"I don't know Sir."

Sam let go of the hatch's handle and pressed her hands to the top of the elevator.

"Yeoooouch!"

"What?!"

"It's hot! Someone's welded it from the inside!"

*GROAN* *SWAY*

"OH CRAP!!"

Jack got to his feet and started to jump up and down on the hatch.

"Carter get over here and help!"

"No! Sir that's not a good idea!"

*GROAN* *SWAY*

"Colonel! You're going to make it worse!"

Jack stopped and looked at Carter.

"There are two cables on an elevator Carter. If one breaks, he has another one to go through before we are gonna die!"

"I know that Sir, but if that one breaks..."


*GROAN!*

"...Then the elevator's going to tilt, and we're going to slide off!"

Jack finally clicked.

"Then what do you propose we do?"

"I really don't know Sir."

"Just then, the Goa'uld succeeded in his little plan- the cable broke and the elevator tilted dangerously to one side, causing Carter and O'Neill to slide. They managed, however, to grab hold of the trap door's handle, and hung there, frantically thinking up a plan.

"Sir he's already started on...."

"The next cable! I know! I know!"

They looked around themselves.

"Great! We're gonna die!"

"Not today my friends!!" Came a muffled reply.
