Daniel gazed up at the ceiling. It was white stucco and not as nice as the one in his other room. Nartach had said that the change of room would be better because it was harder for outsiders to breech security.
Baldesh had just grunted and ordered the guards to search the air ducts for intruders, but that MAN.
The grey-haired man in the dream... the grey-haired man in the air vent...
Daniel was positively sure now that he was supposed to be somwhere else.
"Somewhere with a... what did the man call it? Starhate... Starbate... Oh! Yes. Stargate," Daniel thought, "A stargate with a big blue puddle that you step through and I do this regularly with a grey-haired man who calls me a Spacemonkey." Daniel paused and then said it outloud, then paused again.
"I'm going insane!" he cried out. It certainly sounded looney, but being the curious person that he is, he decided to see for himself. And to see for himself he had to go talk to the man. What his name again...? Started with a J... Jeremy... Josh...

Teal'c and Sam shuffled through the air vent, searching for wherever they put Jack. Both their minds were on Daniel and his display of fear and shock as they had watched him from above.
Teal'c stopped moving suddenly and raised a hand to stop Sam.
"What is it?" Sam whispered.
"Somebody is coming."
The shuffling got closer as Teal'c raised his staff weapon.

Daniel stopped in his airvent travels and listened. Somebody was there. He shuffled around and took the other exit as fast as he could. So fast, in fact, that he fell down through a grating and crashed into a random room.

Teal'c listened some more. Nothing.
"We are safe to move now MajorCarter," he said in a hushed voice, "The noises have subsided."
Sam nodded and they continued on until they came to a grate.
"Looks like some kind of lab..." Sam said, "Fascinating..."
"Should we not go down and explore the area?" Teal'c asked.
Sam grinned widely, eyes lighting up, "Why Teal'c. You read my mind."

A load grunt came from beneath him and Daniel rolled to his feet and trained the zat --that he had stolen from Baldesh's room minutes ago-- onto the other person.
It was the grey-haired man.
"Daniel!" the man said, "Geez, Daniel, you had me scared there for a second. Uhh... why are you... Oh. Darn."
"Okay Jim..."
"Jack."
"Whatever. Jack. Why did you come here?" Daniel asked, choosing his words carefully.
"To rescue you."
"Why?"
"Uh gee, because I'm masochistic. I can't live without my geek," Jack replied, sarcastically, "Because your my friend and I'm your CO and I'm here to save your ass."
"From what?" Daniel glared.
"...Them I guess." Jack was losing some of his bravado. "They took you from us."
Daniel hesitated for a second and then lowered the zat. "Okay, Jack. Fine. You're here to save me. Why did they take me then?"
"Cause you are like a magnet to this stuff," Jack muttered, "You are trouble just waiting to happen. Other than that, I dunno. What have you been doing all this
time?"
Daniel shrugged. "Building stuff."
"Stuff?" Jack asked, pulling a Teal'c with his eyebrows, "What kinda stuff?"
"I dunno," Daniel shrugged again, avoiding the question, "They just gave me the plans and told me to build it."
"Oh."
"The plans are in my lab."
"You have a lab?"
"Of course."
"Oh."
Daniel shook his head slightly.
"Well," Jack grinned let's go see 'em. Heck, maybe we'll even run into Carter and Teal'c while we're at it."
"Carter and who?"
"...I'll tell ya on the way."

Sam scanned her eyes over the pages of a notebook. Notes and decifered symbols covered it throughout.
"Teal'c," Sam said, "this looks like Daniel's writing."
"Indeed it does," Teal'c said stoically, giving a small nodd.
The shuffling started up again.
"Teal'c..." Sam muttered, setting down the notebook, "Do you...?"
"Indeed."
"It's coming from the..." Sam motioned her hand to the ceiling, particularily the air vents.
"Indeed."
A/N: Aha! No cliff hanger --not reeeally-- this time. Now you guys can be horridly mad and flame me for updating so late ^_^
