Stargate SG1: A New Beginning Chapter3: The Test
The team looked anxiously at General Hammond for instruction.
"Come with me," he ordered. They all got up and proceeded to the infirmary with General Hammond and the nurse. When they reached the door of the infirmary, Dr. Fraiser looked up from her work and walked over to them.
She sighed, "Well, this is Aisling. She tells us that she is from the future." She raised her eyebrows to the team and the General.
The five nodded and Dr. Fraiser walked with them over to where the woman was laying.
"Hello Aisling," General Hammond said, cautiously.
A smile formed on the young woman's face when she saw the general and Sg1. "General Hammond?!" she exclaimed joyously, "it worked.I must have come to the correct time," she mused quietly.
"So. where, or rather, when, exactly are you from?" questioned Dr. Jackson, raising an eyebrow in a fashion characteristic to Teal'c.
"As you know, my name is Aisling," she responded. "I'm from here- Colorado.United States. Earth. and well, I'm from the future- 2024."
"How did you get here?" asked Colonel O'Neill bluntly.
"I calculated the time of a sun-flare-like you guys did when you went back to 1968 (except I did it on purpose), and I used your identification code to penetrate the iris." She explained.
"Why did you come?" asked Major Carter.
"Well it's a long story, but I've come because." she paused, "I-In the future, we're in a war- against the Goa'uld. I need somewhere to stay. for protection."
They exchanged yet another look before General Hammond said, "Why here- now?"
A sad look came over Aisling's face, "My husband, siblings, and.my parents were all killed in the most recent battle. I want to find a way to defeat them; I know all of you, and I know you can help me."
"Ok hold on one second there," ordered Colonel O'Neill. "We don't know you."
"Yes. You don't know me.yet. Give it two or three years." She said with a smile of sincerity. "I swear I'm not a spy or anything! Give me a Zatarc test; I'll do anything!"
General Hammond nodded, "okay."
The Tok'ra were there about two hours later, much to Jack's delight, and Aisling was set up to the machine.
"Direct your vision here," instructed Anise, the Tok'ra who had come to help.
Aisling stared into the red light as Anise asked her first question.
"What is your name?"
"My name is Aisling."
"Could you be a bit more specific please?"
"My name is Captain Aisling O'Neill Foley."
Colonel O'Neill's jaw almost became part of the floor when he heard her name- her maiden name.
I'm going to. another child. a new beginning? He thought.
The questions that followed were all answered with ease: when/where are you from? How old are you? How exactly did you get here? Why did you come here? Are you an ally of the Goa'uld? Etc..
When the questions were asked and answered, and the Tok'ra gone, they were all much happier and much more at ease (especially Colonel O'Neill). So Major Carter showed Aisling to her quarters.
"Wow! It's so.cool- to be here- now," Aisling told "To know you all when you're young and.different from the people I know."
" 'Different' in a good way?" asked Major Carter, the usual smile on her face.
"Well- yes and no. You're just different people, and it's interesting to know them," slowly the smile disappeared from Aisling's face. "But. to know that when I go back. you all wont be there, and it'll be hard- very hard."
Sam smiled reassuringly, "well you're here now. We'll worry about the future later."
Aisling mirrored her smile, "that sounds like something you'd say."
They hugged each other comfortingly.
"Thanks for everything M-ajor.Carter, goodnight!"
Sam either didn't seem to notice or chose to ignore Aisling's almost calling her 'Mom' and then almost calling her Major O'Neill, because she just smiled again and said, "goodnight, Aisling."
Major Carter walked out of the room and then to the commissary to get some warm milk. She knew it was going to be hard to get to sleep. She knew she'd be tossing and turning- she didn't know how she felt- about Aisling being Colonel O'Neill's daughter. She turned around to head to her quarters and think, but there he was.
"Hello, sir," she greeted him. "I thought you'd be asleep by now.considering it's..." she looked at her watch. "Wow- One thirty!"
"Well, I can't sleep. All this daughter- this 'daughter-from-the-future' stuff is." he raised his eyebrows, "weird!"
Major Carter laughed a little and glared down at the floor for a second.
"I would imagine so." she said.
*Awkward moment of silence*
"Oh, sorry" he said as her noticed her yawn, "I don't mean to keep you awake."
"No, really," she answered, "I wasn't going to get much sleep tonight anyway." She smiled.
They sat down at a table.
"I was just wondering," started Colonel O'Neill, "I know you were talking to Aisling earlier, and I was.erm.wondering if maybe you could tell me a little of what she said.?"
Sam smiled, "Of course! Let's see. She said that it's 'interesting' knowing. the young versions of the people that she knows; well that she knew. She said it was going to be hard for her to go back because she doesn't really have anyone or anywhere, really, to go home to."
"Oh," said Jack. He was looking for.simpler information- like who her husband was for starters.
He smiled warmly, and put his hand on her shoulder as he got up, "G'nite, major."
She winced slightly, and once he was out of earshot said, "Goodnight. sir."
