Chapter 1: Another Planet To Explore

07.00 Chayenne Mountain

Sg-1 was all geared up and ready to go to some "interesting, worth exploring" planet who would bore Colonel O'Neill out of his wits, make Major Carter dig around the dirt, fascinate Dr. Jackson and make Teal'c raise an eyebrow. They just had to wait for Siler to call "Chevron 7 locked " and an "Sg-1 you have a go " from General Hammond. Once that was said they stepped into the event horizon and were welcomed by . . . well not much. Trees and rocks or course but nothing special.

No matter where they were Colonel O'Neill is still the leader and they had a job to do, so he began giving everybody their orders. "Carter, you look for soil samples and other . . . stuff",

"Daniel you go find some rock you can study",

"and Teal'c you stand guard and watch for any potential treats, while I . . . euh . . . look around!!".

We meet here in say 4 hours TOPS, Daniel, that's 4 not 5, 6, 7 or 12 hours understood?"

Teal'c just nodded his head . "Understood sir" said Carter while checking her science stuff. " Ok, ok, man what's he nagging about?... late? I'm never late!!" said Daniel.

"I believe you are mistaken Daniel Jackson, there was more then one occasion in which you arrived late" said Teal'c while looking for potential threats. "Not true name one!" said Daniel with his hands on his hips.

" Very well, Daniel Jackson, I will attempt to find one, . . . I believe you were one hour late on P3X-475, and on P5Y-2X8 you were so late that Colonel O'Neill was so worried that you were a prisoner of the Goa'uld that he asked Hammond for a rescue team, and on . . . "

" Ok, ok, I got the point, jeez I only asked one!" Teal'c just raised his eyebrow. Carter watched the hole display and laughed to herself while gathering soil samples, she turned to ask Jack something but mainly to watch him while he wasn't looking, god she loved looking at him, his face, his eyes, his lips, oh those lips, what's she wouldn't give to just . . . snap out of it Carter, you wouldn't get near those lips even if your life depended on it, now what was I going to do? . . . right ask him something, she looked around but he was already gone,

" Now were the hell did he get to so quickly?"

Jack was walking a little further, just out of sight, he just couldn't stand watching her the whole time, it made his heart ache, because he wished that they could become so much more, but they were not allowed to due to their military ranks, working relationship and the fact that they could be court-martialled. Even if HE didn't care about his career, he couldn't do that to Sam, destroying her career would kill her. So he made a walk like he always did on such " interesting " planets.

He was so deep in thought that he almost lost track of the time , checking his watch it read 10.45 , time to go back. While turning to head back he heard a faint noise, at first he dismissed it as hearing things but when he heard it a second time he went to investigate.

Meanwhile Daniel, Sam and Teal'c were al ready to go, "For once that I'm on time, he's not here to see it" moaned Daniel

" Major Carter what is the time?" asked Teal'c,

" 11.30" said Sam while checking her watch.

"Is Colonel O'Neill not always on time?"

" Yes, and that kind of worries me, did he say in which direction he was going?". "Not that I know of, no" said Daniel while looking around.

"I don't think he said were he was going Major Carter" said Teal'c "Maybe we should contact him?" .

"Yeah, I'll give him another 30 minutes and if he's not back by then I'll try to contact him " said Sam while checking her watch again.
