Summary: Jack and Sam end up on PX-??? instead of PX-822
Colonel O'Neill stands in the gate room waiting for the rest of his team. Today they are going to
PX-822.
In walks Teal'c. '"Good morning O'Neill where are Dr Daniel Jackson & Major Samantha Carter?"
"Teal'c when Daniel gets here I want to both to go ahead, Carter and I will catch up with you. Carter had
a phone call from NASA. They have problem and they need her help. We should be 1 hour behind you."
"Daniel I'm so glad you made it now get going!"
"Ah Jack were is Sam?"
"Daniel just leave Teal'c will explain."
Daniel walks thru the gate asking Teal'c questions.
Colonel O'Neill report to General Hammonds office.
"Colonel I need you to help Major Carter she is loading up FRED looks like you will be on PX-822 for
at least a week."
"Can you tell me why General?"
"Colonel all I know is that NASA needs something from the planet you are gating to Colonel leave you are ready.!."
"Yes sir see yaw in a week General!"
O'Neill meets up with Carter they get FRED ready and head to the gate room. They move Fred up the ramp and
follow. As they enter thru the gate the lights start flickering at the SCG. A second later the SCG in in total darkness.
A few seconds later Colonel O'Neill and Major Carter stumble out of the gate. Colonel opens his eyes and looks
around then passes out.
Back up power comes on at SCG. People are working to get everything back on line. The General
goes to the control to see what is going on. As he enters the room he notices that everyone is working had to
find out what just happened.
"Can any one tell me what just happened?"
" Sir Colonel O'Neill and Major Carter had just entered the event horizon. And the lights started to flicker
and then every just shut down."
"Do we have any ideal as to what caused this?"
"No we don't sir and right now we don't even know if the Colonel and the Major made it thru.
First we need to get the computers back on line, but in order to check the gate we need full
power."
Just then an airman enters the control room. "General Hammond sir we just received a call stating that
an airliner has crashed into the eclectic lines leading up to the mountain. They said it could be days before we
get all power back".
"See what you can do to get that gate open as soon as possible people. We need to know
if Colonel O'Neill and Major Carter got thru to PX-822."
Once again the Colonel decides to wake up. He slowly stands up looking around Carter. Not seeing her he
starts calling. "Carter you here! Come out come out were ever you are. Sam you here! Answer me." He sees
FRED lying on its side, that's when he sees the Major. Great just great the only brains here and she is taking a
nap. So he starts unloading FRED. We have tents, food for 4, for 8 days, water, first aide kit, flash lights, a
small generator, and a tool kit. Plus 4 sleeping bags. So he decides to set up 1 tent and then he lays out 2
sleeping bags for padding and zips the other 2 together. He brings the Major into the tent and makes sure
she is comfortable. Deciding to look around and find some fire wood he sets off. Not wanting to go to far
incase Carter needs him. Finding fire wood and a lake comforts him. We just might be ok. Just wishing that
he knew why the DHD wasn't working. Oh well Carter can fix it after her nap.
As darkness falls on planet PX-??? the Colonel starts a fire. Wishing his watch wasn't broken. Looking
around he wonders if Carter will be hungry when she awakes. So he makes dinner for 2. And thinking
about the things that need to be done so they could go home. He was getting lonely at least if Daniel was
here he could tell him to shut up.
"Sir what happened?"
"Carter your up, have a nice nap?"
" I am not to sure sir, I have one very big head ache. Do we have any aspirin?"
"Sure we do, and lots of food too"
"Sir why didn't you just get help?"
"It's like this Carter the DHD isn't working, I have no idea where we are and to top it off my watch is broken"
"The DHD is Broken?"
"That's what I said, has your hearing gone bad?
"No sir I am just surprised that you checked."
"Funny Carter"
"Colonel I am hungry and thirsty, my head hurts its dark so I am going to get some sleep and in the morning I
will try to fix the DHD."
So they eat dinner and decide that in the morning they would check the DHD. And if it was going to take a while to fix
they would check out the area some more incase they were going to be stuck awhile.
"Colonel I going to bed."
"Night Major"
"Night sir"
On PX-822 Daniel and Teal'c are just about finished. SG5 had found these ruins and Daniel wanted to get
more information. It looked like a big find at first but after looking around there really isn't anything useful.
"Teal'c you said Jack and Sam would only be a hour, as of now its been 4 hours"
"Perhaps Daniel Jackson, O'Neill changed his mind"
"That sounds like something Jack would do. He really did not seem to interested."
"Indeed it dose! Daniel Jackson"
"The only thing that bothers me is that Sam has gone along with him. Well I should be finished in a half hour and
we can head back"
"And I will continual to keep watch till such time as to when you are ready to depart"
At the SCG. 5 hours after all power had gone out. 4 generators had been hooked up to the gate, to add to the
back up power they had. At least now they would be able to close the iris. Now all they had to do was wait for
all off world teams to come home. The electric company had told them it would be 4 days before all power was
restored to the mountain. General Hammond entered the control room to check and see if the steps that they had
deemed the best course of action to keep the base secure was working. Just as he entered the control room the
alarm stated announcing off work activation. ready to close the iris, a signal came thru.
"Do we know who it is?" Asked the General.
"Sir its SG1" The General leaves the control room and heads towards the gate room, hoping that all 4 members of SG1
are coming thru the gate. Teal'c and Daniel come thru the gate, both looking for Jack and Sam. The General waits to
see if anyone else comes thru the gate. Not seeing anyone he turns to Teal'c and Daniel and asks " Where is Colonel
O'Neill and Major Carter?" Teal'c and Daniel look at each other. Daniel looking a little sheepish replies. " We thought
they decided not to come" Teal'c looks up to the control room and notices how nervous everyone looks.
"General Hammond did something happen ?" Teal'c asked after seeing extra equipment on the floor and the lack of
the bright lights he had become accustomed to. The General looks up to the control room shakes his head no.
At this point he announces that everyone to meet in the conference room in 1 hour.
O'Neill was making breakfast as Carter was checking the DHD. O'Neill looked in Carters direction when he
heard her talking to herself. Deciding that wasn't a good sign he had better call Carter for breakfast. And after they
ate they would take a look around and clean up in the lake he found.
"Carter come and eat and have some coffee!"
"Not now sir I need to find out why this doesn't work"
"Carter eat now!"
"But sir"
"Now Carter"
They ate their breakfast then headed towards the lake. Looking for more fire wood and they freshen up in the lake.
Looking in a cave they saw while gathering fire wood, they decided they could use it if they needed to. Heading
back to camp both were lost in thought. Carter hoping they would get off this planet by tomorrow. Colonel was
thinking I could fish all day and do nothing. Plus I have Carter with me so that's a super plus. Getting back at camp
both realized that they were hungry so they had lunch. After lunch Carter started working on the DHD. The Colonel
got bored so he took a nap.
"Colonel wake up! its getting late, a I am getting hungry"
"Okay I am up"
"Sir I should get the DHD put back to gather tomorrow and with any luck we should be sleeping in our own
beds tomorrow night."
"Great Carter for that I will make your dinner and you can even have my dessert."
After dinner they sit and watch the fire. They are spending their second night here and they have no idea on
where here is. The air is still and there are no night sounds like you find on Earth. Carter gets up and stretches.
"Sir I'm going to head to bed I have a lot to do tomorrow if we want to get home."
"Night Carter. I am just going to sit here a while and watch the stars."
"Night sir" Carter gets into the sleeping bag and quickly fall asleep. She starts dreaming of steaks and fries, and
a nice long hot bath. O'Neill sits watching the stars wondering if Daniel and Teal'c made it back all right.
And wonders if the SCG is looking for them. He puts out the fire and heads into the tent, thinking tomorrow
is another day.
" Okay people its been 12 hours sense Colonel O'Neill and Major Carter went thru the gate. I will give them
12 more hours, but after that I have to lock out their codes." Everyone was shocked that they were going to give
up so soon.
"General you can't do that to Jack and Sam"
"Doctor Jackson I can and will. There is nothing I can do about that son"
"The General is correct Daniel Jackson. He must do what is correct to keep the SCG safe from its enemies."
"Teal'c were talking Jack and Sam here!"
"I am aware Daniel Jackson"
For the next 12 hours everyone was going to wait and hope that the rest of SG1 would make it home before the
gate was closed to them for ever.
It was just getting to be day light as Carter crawled out of the tent. She had a lot to do if they were going to get
home today. She stared putting the DHD back together. The Colonel got up and made breakfast. Calling Carter
to eat. During breakfast it was decided that if they got the DHD working and dialed out they would just leave
everything. Without FRED that had no way of packing everything up. It took Carter another 2 hours, and they were
ready to give it a try.
"Carter is a go"
"Yes sir!" She dialed out it worked, they gave the signal they looked around then stepped thru the gate.
"Off world activation sir! its SG1" everyone held their breath. Colonel O'Neill and Major Carter stepped
out at the same time. Happily the control room emptied out to the gate room.
"Colonel O'Neill where have you both been for the past 16 hours?"
"Well you see General! we came ,we saw it was just another world."
