Chapter 4
"To see if it really works we would need to test it on a human host and the Goa'uld" said Dr. Fraiser. "But, the good news is that it seems safe, as long as the person is not allergic to the sedative or anything in the medicine."
It had been a week since Jacob had come through the Stargate, but he couldn't stick around for the results of the tests because of his duty to the Tok'ra. These results were promising and there was a chance of it working on human hosts like Jesse O'Neill or Sarah Guarder.
"So, we need a test subject," said Daniel. "Jesse?" He said.
"Not as a test subject" said Jack, trying to find a better word for his daughter but unable to. "I don't know, but anything other than a test subject."
"But, this could be good to use not only for Cadet O'Neill but for many other hosts" said General Hammond.
"Unscheduled, off world activation." Sounded the intercom. Without a second thought they headed down to the gate room.
"No IDC but radio signal coming though." Said Sgt. Davis.
"Hello." Said a voice that was normally cheerful.
"Mr. Quinn?" asked General Hammond.
"Yes," Jonas answered. "I would come there in person but with the luck I'm having I'd be missed the second I left."
"That busy?" asked Jack.
"I just radioed to ask if there was any news on Jessica's whereabouts." Jonas said.
After the two seconds it took for everyone to remember that Jessica was Jesse's full name Jack answered, " Nothing so far but the Tok'ra have found something that might help us when we do find her again." He didn't know why he felt he needed to tell Jonas this information.
"What is it?" he asked.
"A serum of Goa'uld poison" said Sam "It's suppose to kill the Goa'uld in the host without hurting the host."
Silence
Sigh.
Silence.
"That's good." He said with a hint of something in his voice. hope maybe or maybe something else but Jack seemed to be the only one who caught it, his dad-senses on high alert.
"Something else, Jonas?" asked Jack.
"No." answered Jonas a little too quickly. Jack did a small eyebrow raise.
"I have to go.please keep me apprised." He said and the wormhole closed.

Jonas had caught his own tone after the thought of a Jesse once again free from the Goa'uld. Apparently, so had Colonel O'Neill. He had lied about having to leave but his voice was betraying his emotion too much and he didn't want to be under the careful eye of Colonel O'Neill if he ever saw Jessica again- no- he corrected himself, when he saw her again. His dreams were getting more realistic every night as if they were giving him a guide on what to do the next time he saw her.

Jack's actions and tone towards Jonas at the end had gone unnoticed by everyone but Sam. Her mom-senses, not yet attuned as much as his dad ones, had pretty much left untouched the possibly of Jonas and Jesse together.
"Sir," she said as they walked down the hall later.
"Yes, Carter." He said.
"Forgive me if I'm wrong but you seemed a little.cold towards Jonas at his radio contact. Did you see something I didn't?" she asked.
"Only attraction." He said.
"Excuse me?" she said.
"It was all over his voice Carter." He said and noticed she still looked confused. "Jonas likes Jesse, and maybe even more."
"It would explain a lot but I still find that hard to believe sir."
"Why?"
"Because-" she said and then was unable to find a good reason why.
"Exactly my point."
"Scary, Sir."
"Very."
School has been crazy and my muse has run away! So review, review, review! Thanks to Drax for betaing.
