"I don't think I want to do this," Ellie whined as she walked with Jonas up to the star gate. Jonas had been given permanent Ellie duty, seeing as how he managed to keep one eye on her at all time.

"Don't worry you'll be fine," Jonas attempted to reassure her.

"I'm not even sure whether it exists yet. I really don't want to go through it." Ellie whimpered.

"Where's the sense of adventure that got you into the SGC?" he asked.

"I was getting a quarter of a million for that, which makes the situation very different."

"If you say so," Jonas said pushing her into the simmering water like substance.

Ellie clamped her eyes shut for a split second, then opened them slowly to admire her surroundings. It was like going through a tunnel. Pushed out the other side of the star gate, Ellie lost her balance, falling straight on her face getting a mouth full of sand. She was pulled up back to her feet by Teal'c, to find herself in a very large dessert.

"This way," Anise/Freya indicated for them to follow her.

They followed her, a while till she stopped next to a younger man who seemed to serve as some sort of landmark. Everyone else seemed to know what was going on. Gathering in close, five or so giant metal like rings came up around her. She didn't have time to count she was to busy suppressing an 'eek' of surprise.

A second later the rings retracted, and she was in some sort of tunnel system, where the walls were made of some sort of crystal. Everyone was dressed like ether Anise/Freya or Jacob/Selmak. Though more like Jacob/Selmak (This is probably really annoying, the both names thing, but I use it to illustrate how confusing this all is to Ellie, cause it hasn't been explained to her yet. As soon as it's explained I'll use Jacob when he's talking and Selmak when he's talking, same with Anise/Freya and any other Tok'ra I might or will make up)

Ellie followed Anise/Freya and Jacob/Selmak (have you noticed that a lot of Tok'ra and Jaffa's names end in 'c or 'k) through the tunnels taking a large amount of turns, she knew she would never be able to find her way around this place by herself. They finally arrived at their destination, removed the shield surrounding the door and waiting for Ellie to go first. Ellie walked forward in her more normal confidence.

"Ellie!!!" Ryan yelled wrapping his arms around his close friend (friend, not girl friend, Ellie likes Adam and everyone but Adam knows this) embracing her in a tight hug.

"Hey Ryan," Ellie giggled prying her body from his superior grip.

"They get ya too?" Ryan asked as the other walked in.

"Not quite, the guys in the Air Force base caught me. That one to be exact," Ellie explained pointing to Jonas. Ryan saluted Jonas for catching Ellie in the act which was next to impossible.

"So the nomad (nomadic herder) look a likes work for the Air Force,"

"No, I think it's more like an alliance," Ellie suggested.

"Ya sure?" Ryan asked Ellie.

"Yeah, I'm sure,"

"What am I doing here (how did I get here)?"

"I don't know,"

"I was with Adam and the others at the meeting, then you didn't show and we gave up waiting so we left. Adam stayed after to talk to that guy. I waited for him, after he didn't come out, I left and I started to walk home when I saw Adam pulled into a black van got eye contact with the dude, and then I woke up in here."

"Black van?" Jack asked.

"Yeah,"

"NID sir," Carter suggested.

"Most likely," Jonas added.

"NID?" Ellie asked. "Another secret that you don't have time to explain."

"The NID are a very powerful government agency that are above the law, they don't think that StarGate program is doing everything it can to protect Earth." Carter explained.

"St..ar...ga..te..? Is that what it sounds like?" Ryan asked, then pleaded. "Please tell me I'm in some kind of cult's prison place."

"We aren't a cult," Selmak/Jacob (the one that goes first is the one that is talking, for on anyway) informed Ryan.

"Will you stop with the freaky voice," Ellie snapped, really annoyed with it. "I think we should explain to whole gou'ld and StarGate story to them now," Jonas recommended.

"I agree," Ellie responded full heartedly.
