Chapter 3

"For the record, state your full name with rank and assignment," asked the man who was questioning her.

"What am I on trail?" asked Jesse.

"Please, answer," he said.

"Cadet Jessica Samantha Carter-O'Neill, USAF, SGA, "she said.

"Please state was USAF and SGA stand for,"

"For crying out loud, you know,"

"For the record,"

"Untied States Air Force and Stargate Association,"

"Thank you,"

"How did you get here?"

"Well, one day my parents thought it would be a good idea to."

"I mean to Stargate Command,"

"Oh, so you want me to skip forward,"

"That would be nice,"

"Ok, wait did you say Stargate Command?"

"Yes and please answer my question,"

" I came from another universe where the bad alien people, whose name I can't pronounce, it starts with a G, were attacking us. We tried to come from mirror to here,"

"We?"

Jesse swallowed and pushed back tears. "Bryan Maybourne, Ben O'Neill and myself,"

"Which one's body is laying in the infirmary at this moment?"

"I haven't seen the body,"

"Come with me," Jesse followed him to the back of the infirmary where a single body lay; a blanket lay over his face. The blanket was lifted and Jesse saw the lifeless yet handsome features of her once live boyfriend. She felt the tear go down her cheek.

"Bryan," she said in barely a whisper. She didn't wan to break down in front of the man who was questioning her. The camera that was recording the kept filming; she didn't want the rest of the people on base to know that she cried.

They walked back to the room in silence.

"Almost done," he said.

"Good," Jesse said the earlier sarcasm less but still there.

"Who are your parents?"

"This is a personal question or mandatory,"

"Both,"

"My mother is Dr. Samantha Carter-O'Neill formally of the USAF and my father is Maj. Gen. Jonathan O'Neill commander of the SGA," The man sat wordlessly and looked almost in shock. "Let me take a wild, farfetched educated guess. In this place both are still in the Air Force. Dad is not a general or commander and mom is still a scientist,"

"That amazing, how did you know?"

" Thank you, I pride myself on my deduction skills,"
