Please don't hurt me. At least not yet.

Thai and Torna were passing the infirmary with General Hammond when they heard the commotion coming from inside. They looked at each other for a moment before running inside.
They saw Daniel and heard the flatline of the machine.
"Lay him back down. I've got something that will delay the effects of this," Thai told the, hurrying up to them.
The medical team looked at each other before they did so and Thai pulled out a vile of light blue liquid. She grabbed a needle from a nearby table and quickly put the liquid in it. She injected it into one the IV tubes.
Everyone in the room grew tense as the blue liquid went into Daniel's arm.
After a few tense moments, the monitors showed signs of life. Daniel coughed and slightly lifted his head before lowering it back down to the pillow. Everybody gave a sigh of relief at this.
"How did you do that?" asked a very surprised Hammond.
"It's something to calm the effects from the wounds. It can even bring people from the brink of death. It can give them several hours, maybe even a few days. It's the only thing we have to counteract the poison from the fangs. Most die from it but some people do live through the ordeal," Thai explained, putting a hand on her forehead.
She swayed a bit. She would've fell on the floor if it weren't for Jacob.
"Are you alright?" he asked, sounding concerned.
She nodded.
"No, you aren't. Why do I bother asking anymore? It's the baby, isn't it?" Selmak asked.
"Yes, it is but don't worry Selmak. I'll be fine," Thai replied.
The Tok'ra just stood there as she walked out of the room.
"She always been like that. Stubborn when it comes to helping other people but neglects herself when she needs to take it easy," Jacob said with a sigh.
"Do you think someone should stay with her for the night? In case she needs any help?" wondered Carter.
"I definitely think so. See if you can get her to come here for the night. I don't want to see her go into labour without anyone else around. Besides, Doctor Fraiser could use her expertise to help Doctor Jackson throughout the night," Hammond said.
Carter soon followed her to her room , where she heard gasping coming from inside.
"Thai? What's wrong?" she called.
When there came no answer, Carter opened the door and hurried inside to see an unconscious Thai on the floor. She hurried to the com.
"Medical emergency, Thai's room," Carter quickly said.
The Light was soon in the infirmary in a bed, her eyes closed. Torna stayed by her side, holding her hand. Jacob stood nearby with the Fraiser.
"She probably shouldn't have made the trip here. She's so close to having that child, it's not even funny," Fraiser said with a sigh.
"I really didn't think she would come because of the fact she's so close to having it either, but I know her," Jacob said. "Like I said, she's very stubborn."
"I beleive she'll be awake in time for the trip back to their planet and hopefully they'll find out something else to help Daniel," she said.
"They won't. They've tried everything. All we can do now is wait and see what happens," Jacob replied before he left.
Fraiser stood there for a moment more before heading to do some paperwork.

The next day, Teal'c, O'Neill, Carter, Jacob and Hammond were waiting in the Gate Room. The dialing sequence was already in progress.
Soon, Fraiser walked in with Thai and Torna. Thai appeared to be slightly dizzy from the previous night.
"How's Doctor Jackson doing?" asked the general.
"He's still in a coma, but still alive as of yet," the doctor told him.
"Good. Thai, is there any way we can keep him alive longer?" Hammond asked her.
"There is one way sir, except we can't do it," she replied.
Everyone there was shocked.
"Why not?" asked an angry colonel.
"Because it's a procedure that needs his consent first. It would save him just because of his race but it's too dangerous and never done before besides that," she replied.
The five could hardly believe it.
"SG1, your mission is to bring back the supplies needed to help Doctor Jackson and make sure the lieutenant is safe the entire way," Hammond
"If I don't hear about it and he dies, I'd love to shoot you where you stand just for not telling us," O'Neill warned her as he leaned in closer to her as he walked by her towards the Stargate.
Torna watched him leave before he turned to her.
"What shall I do with him?" he asked in the alien language.
"Nothing as of yet. We will wait and see how his attitude towards me later," she replied in the same language.
He walked through the gate as Jacob grabbed her arm.
"Why didn't you tell me about this sooner?" he quietly wondered.
"It's because of the symbiotes you carry. There's no way your people would've handled it that easily," she quietly replied.
They walked through the gate and the wormhole disappeared, leaving Hammond and Fraiser in a worried state.
"Do you think she'll do this procedure anyway?" asked the doctor.
"I don't know. I truly don't know," he replied.
The six stepped onto Amarala only to find destruction. Torna led the group into the city to find few people there.
Two peeked out of a door before carefully running out to them. They spoke to Torna and Thai. The looks on their faces were of sheer terror.
"They received a message from a Goa'uld. One of the System Lords is on their way here! They must have a spy among us otherwise they wouldn't know where to find us," Thai replied, starting to hurry at towards the city.
"Lyna, as much as you want to catch this guy, we have to get these people out of here," Selmak told her, as Jacob let the symbiote take control.
"As much as I want to do that Selmak, someone has to find this spy before we leave for our new homeworld or even yours or theirs. They would take out worlds by force," Lyna replied, also taking control.
"Is that good for the baby?" Selmak asked curiously.
"It isn't if I stay in control too long. Usually, an hour at the most every day. There could be permanant damage to the baby if I stay in control too long," Lyna explained as they continued to walk.
"That can happen in human babies if the mother does something that's not good for herself," Carter said.
"That's if the guy hasn't left already," protested O'Neill.
"We would've heard from the Tok'ra by now Colonel," Lyna said to him.
"Not necessarily," Selmak said, shaking his head.
The six walked into the main building. They walked in to find two members of the High Council dead and three were tied up. The last one was talking to a strange woman.
"Who is this?" demanded Torna in the language of the Lights.
The two looked at each other before looking back at them with huge smiles. Looks of recognition flashed across Carter's and O'Neill's faces as they looked at each other.
It was Osiris.
"Lyna, how nice to see you. It's so sad that you nor Selmak saw this coming before now. So terribly sad," the High Coucilman said. "My name is Chalnace if you must know."
O'Neill, Carter and Teal'c all aimed their weapons at the oncoming guards.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you," the Goa'uld threatened. "Or I will kill the remaining members of the High Council."
He aimed his staff weapon at them.
"Do as they ask Colonel. Please," pleaded Thai.
The members of SG1 lowered their weapons and surrendered.
"I hate the Goa'uld and these Lights so much," O'Neill whispered to himself.
