********************

It was a peaceful day on P7C-992. Daniel was neck deep in the archeological find of the century when he heard it.

Sam yelling. Sam didn't yell unless something was really wrong. Something was definitely wrong.

"I cannot believe you just said that."

"ME?! When did anything I say actually mean anything?"

"Usually it doesn't! But I still can't believe you just said that."

"You're bordering on insubordination there MAJOR!"

"I don't give a damn COLONEL!"

"O'Neill, Major Carter, you will stop this at once."

"Fine. Daniel, dial us up."

Daniel was able to do no such thing however. Sam was already by the DHD punching in Earth.

This was not gonna be pretty.

"Unscheduled off-world activation!"

General George Hammond raced down to the 'gate room, knowing that something had to be wrong. SG-1 was the only team currently off world, and they were never early. Especially two hours early.

"Who is it?"

"We're getting SG-1's iris code."

"Open it."

He headed down to the 'gate room, not knowing what to expect. There had been no emergency, no reason whatsoever for them to be coming home.

The world they had been on was completely uninhabited. It was a peaceful planet, obviously the perfect place for a certain archeologist.

Sam stormed through the 'gate, her face red, and anger written in her eyes. Jack soon followed, yelling for her to stop. Daniel and Teal'c came through last, not wanting to interfere in the confrontation between the two military personnel.

"STOP RIGHT THERE MAJOR!!!"

"THERE'S NO WAY IN HELL!!"

"That's insubordination Major!"

"Bite me!"

What was said next was so rude, that no one in the room could believe it.

"Why don't you just act like any other sensible woman and go cook something?"

Sam just stood there for a second, disbelief written on her face, hurt and anger in her eyes.

"This isn't gonna be pretty." Daniel muttered to himself and Teal'c.

"Indeed."

Daniel saw it, but was going to stop it. Sam's hand had suddenly made itself into a fist.

The next thing anyone knew, Jack was sprawled across the 'gate room floor, holding his jaw.

Sam just stood there shaking; she looked as though she was about to break down into tears.

"General, I'll have my resignation papers on your desk by the end of the day."

With that, she stormed out of the room, obviously heading for the infirmary.

Janet could tell just by the way that Sam entered the infirmary that she wasn't happy.

She just kind of sunk down onto the bed, not really knowing what to do with herself.

"What happened?"

"I don't really wanna talk about it right now. Do you mind?"

"No, wanna have a girl's night in tonight?"

"Sure, what time?"

"Seven sound good?"

"Yeah. Thanks."

"Don't mention it. Now, let's get this physical of yours over with. I'm sure you'd love to get out of here."

"Yeah."

Janet was soon done, and Sam had been pronounced physically fit.

"Well, from what I can tell there's nothing wrong. I'll let you know if anything turns up in your blood work."

"I'm leaving."

"What?!"

"You heard me. I'm gonna give my resignation to Hammond here in a little while. I've just got to get my lab packed up and then I'm out of here."

"I guess you'll tell me tonight."

"Yeah."

Just at that very moment, the rest of SG-1 sauntered in. Janet immediately noticed the bruise that was growing on Jack's cheek, not to mention the way that Sam suddenly sat up straighter. He was obviously the source of her anxiety.

"I'll talk to you later Janet."

"Take it easy Sam. I mean it."

Jack and Teal'c had already claimed beds by this time, whereas Daniel seemed to be waiting for Sam.

Janet watched closely as Daniel whispered something into Sam's ear. She nodded at this before continuing out of the infirmary.

What had he done this time?

~fin~

HA! I've decided to write more cliffhangers! Since I'm now famous for them as Lynn so lovingly pointed out.

So, want to know what happens next? The next chapter will be longer, I promise!
