CHAPTER NINE: The Wankel Banquet!

BANG

The cell door slammed.

"Wankel! We're in real trouble! Listen, you've gotta help me get us out of here."

Wankel remained in the dark corner of the cell.

"Wankel?!"

There was no reply. Sam walked over to Wankel and shook him gently.

"Oh no! I can't believe it, he's dead and I'm trapped in here while Sir is out there being poisoned and going crazy!"

"Psst!" There was someone at the door. Sam walked over to the door and looked through the small window. On the other side was a tall, dark haired woman. She didn't appear to have the keys to the cell, so she spoke through the glass.

"My name is Regina. I despise Ra and came to tell you that he plans to kill you if you do not cooperate like O'Neill is."

"Well what am I supposed to do then?"

Regina looked around nervously, "Just play along, pretend."

Sam understood and nodded.

"I must go, good luck!"

Regina left and 10 minutes later two of Ra's guards came to take Sam back to O'Neill and Ra.

Once back at the table, Sam pretended to be "poisoned" like Jack.

"AHH, I SEE YOU HAVE COME TO YOUR SENSES. THAT IS GOOD. VERY GOOD."

Sam continued to pretend to enjoy her situation, until a big plate was brought out and placed on the banquet table. Jack dug into it (he was looking kinda crapulous too!). Sam picked at it, but made sure she looked pleased, but it was hard when she found something sticking in the meat.

"What the...." Sam breathed. She pulled something from the meat. It looked like plastic; turning it over in her hand, she could make out some words: "Dr Felix Wankel- Reason of death: Poisoning."

Sam stood up all of a sudden, her face was green.

Jack was eating Dr Wankel!!!

"Dr Wankel?! Jack, GROSS!" Sam dove in Jack's direction and pushed away what was left of the meat. "I can't pretend any longer! You are an evil, evil being and I want to know what you want with Colonel O'Neill and I."

"VERY WELL, BUT IT MEANS I WILL HAVE TO KILL YOU!"

"I know very well that you weren't just going to let us free!"

"OH YES, YOU'RE A SMART ONE. WELL, I HAD HALF ANTICIPATED THAT WANKEL WOULD DIE OF STRESS, THAT IS WHY I BROUGHT YOU AND O'NEILL TO DO THE WORK."

"What about Teal'c and the others?"

"THEY CAN NEVER AGAIN FOIL MY PLANS.... HA HA HA, NO ONE CAN SAVE YOU NOW!"
