Chapter 6
Cassie entered Jesse's room in the SGC. She saw the young Cadet looking at pictures on her bed.
"Hi," said Cassie.
Jesse smiled when she saw her and then turned away. "You look like her," she said.
"Who?" asked Cassie.
"My best friend, Cassie,"
"Well, I am Cassie,"
"I can see that,"
"I could be your friend, too,"
"I know," After moments of silence Jesse said, " Come sit and hear me rant about the people in these pictures," Cassie smiled and came and sat. "This is Bryan, my boyfriend, who is now gone," she said pointing at a picture of a young, handsome man in a marine's uniform in the formal picture.
'He looks 22' Cassie thought.
"He is or was," Jesse said aloud.
"I didn't say that aloud,"
"What, didn't you say aloud?"
"That I thought he was 22,"
"Oh. Oh uh I didn't really tell them something I should've,"
"What?"
"I was captured by a traitor in the SGC when I was three. They took me to a lab and started performing experiments on me. They were going to kill me but SG-1 showed up and saved me,"
"But, not before they had done something to you that couldn't be reversed," Cassie added.
"Right, they couldn't detect that something had happened,"
"Then how they find out,"
"I started levitating a little over a foot off the ground one day,"
"Oh,"
"These are my brothers," she pointed to three pictures of three Air Force Officers.
"They're cute,"
"I don't know what some girls see in them," For the next two hours Cassie and Jesse stayed together looking at photos of her family and friends. They were gone but not forgotten.
