Daniel was walking next to Anise as they hurried to gether some Tok'ra troops.

"So you say the Lights need our help on Amarala? How can you possibly know this when you were obviously injured and hadn't gone with the rest of your team?" she wondered.

"Intuition. Sometimes it can help in situations like these," he replied as they hurried down the tunnels.

They came across a large room with several people in it.

"We have to help Selmak and the others. Apparently, they have been captured by a Goa'uld on Amarala. We must go free them before vital information gets into the wrong hands," Anise told them.

They all nodded and they started to leave the room for the Stargate immediately.

"Doctor Jackson, will anybody from Earth try and follow you here?" Anise wondered on the way.

"I'm sure they'll send a team. I'm also sure they can also help us," he replied.

"Are you certain? Risking more of your people?" Anise said, alarmed.

"I'm just here to warn you about all this. The messenger basically. Whether or not you need more help to do this rescue mission is up to you," Daniel told her.

Anise thought about that statement as the Stargate came into view.

SG-12 landed on the planet's surface and looked around. They soon saw people heading towards them and the gate.

"Ready yourselves," the major said, lifting his weapon.

The Tok'ra approached them and were curious as to why they were there.

"What is it that you want?" asked one.

"We came for Doctor Jackson. He came here not too long ago," replied a member of the team.

"I'm sorry, he is not here. He must have gone to another planet and you thought he came here," another replied.

One walked up to the DHD and started to dial out as more came up behind them.

Major Brown looked over the people arriving at the gate. In the midst of everybody, he saw Daniel walking among them, bandages around his arms and all. His eyes narrowed in confusion.

'The one just said that Daniel wasn't here. Why would she say that when he right was here among them all along?' he wondered to himself.

He faced Anise, who had just walked up to him.

"What do you want?" she asked him.

"Listen, can we help with whatever you're doing?" asked the major.

Anise thought for a moment before nodding.

"Yes, you can. Come, for we don't have much time to spare," she replied as the wormhole established.

The Tok'ra and SG-12 walked through the gate along with the 'injured' Daniel Jackson.

Hammond sat in his chair as Fraiser stood on the other side.

"General, there's really nothing we can do. SG-12 should have been back by now with Daniel. After what happened last night with what Lieutenant Skylar did, I was keeping an eye on the levels of the poison and Daniel's regular vitals. The poison was steady where it was for a while after last night but it was slowly rising again before he left," she explained to him.

"How low had it been?" asked Hammond.

"Lower than what it had been before the blue 'medication' as I call it was injected into his body. It was actually low enough for him to regain consciousness that one time when you were there," she replied.

Hammond stared at the telephone. He sighed before shaking his head.

"All we can do now is wait for their return. Whether or not he shows up dead is another thing," Hammond finally told her.

Fraiser nodded and she headed out of the room.

Osiris walked up to the six captives.

"I never expected to see everyone here at once. Selmak of the Tok'ra. Major Carter and Colonel O'Neill from Earth. Teal'c, the sholva (AN-Is that it?). Also Koran and Lyna of the Lights. It will be a pleasure getting information from all of you," the Goa'uld mused.

"You won't get away with this Osiris. More will come here once we don't return home. They'll assume something's wrong and come looking for us," Carter told her.

"I doubt that they will survive the trip either. Our troops will kill them all," Osiris replied as she walked up to the major.

Chalnace watched the Goa'uld from afar. He gave a snicker from his position of guarding the High Council.

"Please don't start the 'I'm a god' crap. I get tired of that really easily from one of you that I meet," O'Neill piped up.

The Goa'uld turned its attention to the colonel.

"I won't though we all know I am," she replied.

She looked at Thai in Torna's arms.

"What's with her besides the fact she's pregnant?" Osiris wondered, pointing at her.

"Nothing serious. She just fainted from all the excitement," snarled Jacob.

"I sincerely hope so for your sake. If she's doing anything against me, even more lives be will lost today, starting with the baby," the Goa'uld replied.

Jacob inwardly gasped at the statement.

The Tok'ra landed on Amarala to find destruction of the field and nearby village. Daniel soon walked through the gate and walked to the front of the group with SG-12 soon following him. They stopped at the front of the group.

"Remember that this place is no longer peaceful or safe. Beware of the charsts, they're dangerous. I should know and now there's at least one Goa'uld running around the place and probably several Jaffa are as well," Daniel told them.

"How does he know that Major?" another member asked curiously.

"I have no idea," he quietly replied.

Daniel turned around and led the way to the town.

"What I want to know is how the heck is he even able to walk and talk after all that's he suffered," whispered Major Brown.

"Some things we'll never know Major," came another member's voice.

Both shrugged their shoulders in agreement.

Osiris walked back and forth between the six prisoners.

"What shall I do with you all? So hard to choose which one to start with before I kill you all," she sighed.

"Nothing will happen today while I'm around to stop it as far as I can help it," came a familiar voice.

Nine pairs of eyes looked towards the door to see several armed people. SG- 1, Jacob and Torna were all surprised to see who was leading group.

"It can not be!" gasped Teal'c. "Daniel Jackson."

"Shouldn't he be back on Earth?" O'Neill wondered.

"Yes, he should. He should also be in a coma and near death. What happened to him?" Carter answered him.

TBC...

Author's Note-I didn't know whether to refer to Osiris as male (the name of the symbiote) or female (Sarah, the host). So I went with the host.
