Okay *sigh* I'm sorry I haven't written for, forever. And, I guess Thera
didn't go to solitary confinement, but I got my vengeance on Raven. Talon.
Okay, DO NOT CROSS HER! I'm seriously considering not letting her write anymore, if she wasn't better than me. Raven
*Simultaneously* No, we do not own Stargate. *sigh*

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~
Teal'c and Jonas had to work hard to suppress a smile. They failed.
"I guess he crossed the line again." Jonas chuckled. Thera stared.
"He smiles?" she asked in awe, staring at Teal'c.
"Indeed I do." The Jaffa stated.
"Okay, cool. Now, I have a question." Thera said. "IS EVERYBODY HERE NUTS!?"
All three turned to the girl, eyebrows raised.
"HELLO! I saw his picture in the obituaries for crying out loud! Do you not get it? I saw a dead guy!"
"Do you wish for us to believe that you have gone insane, Thera?'' Teal'c asked.
"NO!" Thera drawled. "I just thought I was surrounded by normal people."
Teal'c glanced at Jonas.
"Okay, well, I admit, you talk funny. And I know you're an alien."
Once again, all three stared at Thera.
"Daniel?" Frasier asked. Thera nodded.
"So, you don't think I'm crazy?" Thera asked.
"Well, we won't know for sure until we get the cat scan results." Nobody caught the doctor's joke.
"So, back to the lab results..." Doctor Frasier said, glad to change the topic. "Thera, when you were in a coma, by all means you should have died. And yet, here you are, in perfect health. Also, half the time, you woke up, babbling in ancient Egyptian with a goa'uld accent. It doesn't make any sense."
"Well, I think the first step would be to find out who exactly her goa'uld was." Jonas stated, eyeing something hanging around Thera's neck.
"Can I borrow that necklace?" he asked the teenager.
"Well," she responded "it's actually more of a neck brace than a necklace. Oh, that." She said, seeing the amber tablet-like stone that hung from her neck. "How did that get there.
"Probably the same way I got my bellybutton pierced." She thought wistfully, handing Jonas (Who she still thought was hot) the necklace.
"I'm going to go do some research on this." The archaeologist informed them. "Usually its things like this that hold a vital clue."
Jonas left.
"Well, Thera." Doctor Frasier said. "I think it's safe to say, you're in perfect health. Also, I've been told that it's safe to have you explore the base, as long as you change into something more appropriate, and take off that weapon." Thera blushed.
"Why didn't you take it off while I was sleeping?"
"Well." Frasier replied. "We were kind of afraid to."
Thera smiled, as Teal'c began to lead Thera out of the infirmary.
"And Thera." The doctor called. "It was nice to see Daniel again."
Thera gawked.
"You have security cameras n my room?! What if I was changing?"
"You have a bathroom."
Thera rolled her eyes and walked out the door.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So." Thera said to Teal'c in the hallway. "You're an alien."
"Indeed, I am a Jaffa."
Thera stopped and stared at him.
"Okay." she snorted. "Your English is way off. It's 'yeah. Jaffa.' not 'Indeed I am a Jaffa.' That's weird."
"Very well then"
"No." the girl corrected. "Its 'sure, whatever.'"
Teal'c kept his mouth shut this time.
As they neared Thera's room, a red-headed woman shot her a look.
"Take a picture, it'll last longer!" Thera shot. She could feel her eyes growing strangely hot.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~] Jonas set the light to the proper setting, set the tablet necklace under the bulb, and smiled as inscriptions appeared.
"I knew it." he murmured. The alien decided he'd better go and find the girl. She might be able to help some. He decided to check the library first, as that was the most likely place for a girl like Thera to stay. He entered the library, and the librarian glanced up from a romance novel she was quite absorbed in. "Jonas." she teased. "Haven't you already read everything in here 5 times over?"
"Very funny, but I'm here to find Thera."
The librarian's cheerful expression turned slightly colder.
"She's over there, in that corner. She got bored with everything else in here, until she finally found a good story. She's been taking notes for 45 minutes now. A little weird, that one. She'd be sweet, except for..." the woman's voice trailed off. Nobody liked the idea of having a goa'uld in their presence. Jonas nodded and headed off for that corner.
Thera's eyes seemed to be a pale, steady, glazed yellow. She didn't seem to see the paper covered in ancient hieroglyphs beneath her hands. "What are you writing?" Jonas asked suddenly. Thera gasped, crying several
Egyptian words that Jonas wished he didn't know, the yellow fading from her eyes. "JONAS!" she shrieked. "Well, I should be the one yelling at you, you just cursed me out in Egyptian!" Jonas chuckled. "DID NOT!" "Yes you did, and that's the end of it. Listen, I wanted to know if you wanted to come to my office to help me with some translations." "I guess." Thera sighed. "But I bet I won't do any good." The teenager followed him out of the library, clutching the sheet of hieroglyphics closely, and peppering Jonas with questions. "So, is it true Teal'c has a goa'uld in him?" "Yes, it maintains his immune system." "Does he, like, not have one?" "It was crushed after the symbiotic was implanted. Now he depends on it-" "Sounds like a quick version of AIDS to me. Think he'll let me see it?" "there was an incident, and his goa'uld had to be replaced by a drug that does basically the same thing. Thera was silent (for like, two seconds Talon) then... "So, does colonel O'Neill usually aim loaded guns at teenage girls?" "No, it wasn't like it was loaded or anything, he just thought you were a goa'uld and he wanted to scare you." They stopped in front of Jonas' office then entered. Jonas showed Thera the tablet's translations. "Here's what I have so far." N'kiri had become too powerful, so she was tortured, and, something, to the Ta'ri home world where her, something, something, something and never again could she, something, technology." Thera examined it. "N'kiri had become too powerful, so she was tortured and exiled to the Ta'ri home world, where her host would regain control, and never again could she manipulate technology." Thera's voice had sounded like that of a goa'uld, yet she hadn't seemed to realize it. "No, idea what the 'somethings' would be." Thera said, forgetting what she'd just said, shrugging. "Whatever it was, she's probably dead now......WHAT!?" Jonas, who had been staring quite blankly at the girl, regained composure, reminding himself of these strange occurrences. "Can you identify the picture on the back?" he asked. Thera turned the necklace over. "Yeah. I draw it all the time always thought it looked kinda like me." she
handed the tablet back to Jonas. "Well." he stated. "I think it's safe to say that N'kiri was your goa'uld,
she became too powerful. She was killed, then sent here. I guess you carry some of her abilities. That must be why you keep zoning out." Thera gave him a quizzical look. "How you figured that out, and what that last sentence meant, I'm not sure I want to know. And please, don't mention the fact that I probably came from
another planet. That freaks me out." "Okay." Jonas said. Thera gave him one more weird look, then walked out of the room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jack nibbled at the pancakes the next morning. Chef usually didn't cook them this way. Chef didn't usually cook this good. "Well, I'm up for seconds, anyone else?" Jonas stood, and Sam sat, shaking her head, smiling and muttering something about clogged arteries. Jack shrugged and he and Jonas walked to where the chef usually cooked. "Hey chef, what's with the..........breakfast......change?" Thera turned around from a hot griddle. "The chef was sick, I was bored, I can cook, you basically get the rest." Jack couldn't help but feel a bit edgy about this girl. "Hey, uh, sorry about the gun and all." "Don't worry." she replied. "I'm sure that you either mistake young women for deadly aliens often, or in your own little world, it's a compliment." Jack threw her a lopsided smile. She wasn't half bad. "Uh, Jonas." she said softly to the (COMPLETELY IGNORED! Raven) alien standing next to him. "I don't think N'kiri's dead." Jonas and Jack exchanged glances. "What do you mean?" Jonas inquired. "Doctor Frasier must have run eighteen full tests on you. There's no way N'kiri could still be alive." "But you're not positive." "No, not really." Jack stated. "I think N'kiri's still alive." Thera said. Jack rolled his eyes. Forget what he said sbout her being all right. She reminded him of the skeptical side of Daniel way too much. Maybe she should be sent to a soft, padded room... (Yay! Jack thinks like me! Talon) "Honestly, I don't think she's dead!" Thera said again, more firmly this time, beginning to clutch her head. "Is something wrong?" Jonas asked. Jack shot him a 'duh-what-do-you-think-she's-been-saying-you-nerd!' look. 'Just a head ache." Thera said softly, steadying herself on the counter. "It must just be the heat from the griddle, that's all." "Uh, you really don't look all right." Jack pushed. Thera's eyes flashed, just as she dropped to the floor aand began convulsing.
Whaddaya think? Okay, I know I've been getting a little boring, but you just have to stick through hard times. So read and review, or I'll call hmmm *checks list* Seth, no, wait, he's dead, uh, Anubis' #1 henchman. What's jis name again? Ah, who cares. Just review. Talon.
"I'm too scared to threaten you these days. *edges away from Talon* Raven
Okay, DO NOT CROSS HER! I'm seriously considering not letting her write anymore, if she wasn't better than me. Raven
