Teal'c had been gone for three hours. He claimed he was 'going to get bait'. Jack shook his head; he should've gone with him. Where could the big Jaffa be, anyways?
Riding into town, he looked around the buildings that lined the bare streets. Stopping at one of the places he liked to get bait, Jack stepped out of his truck and walked over to the dark doors. Pushing them open, he breathed a sigh of relief as he found Teal'c standing there looking at something in his hands.
"Hey buddy, need some help?" Jack asked, approaching.
Teal'c looked up, "I do not know which one to buy, O'Neill."
"We can get some next time. We should get back to the mountain. I told Hammond we'd be back soon", Jack smiled.
Nodding, Teal'c laid the packages down on the table and the two friends headed back towards the base.
On their way there, a red light streaked across their path. Jack slammed on the breaks and glanced at Teal'c, who picked up a zat gun from under the seat.
He walked down the street, and Jack followed, equally armed. That was no ordinary streak of light, that was a staff weapon, and they both knew it.
***
A funny looking Jaffa darted into the trees. Teal'c ran after him gracefully and Jack slowly checked the other side of the road.
Diving into the forest and shooting his weapon at the moving target, he finally made a hit and brought him down to his knees. The captive dropped his staff and looked down. He was a Settesh guard.
Grabbing the staff weapon, Teal'c called to his Colonel, "O'Neill, come quickly."
Soon, Jack O'Neill was jogging up beside his friend and he looked at the ground where the bigger man was pointing.
Looking down, he appeared confused, "Am I seeing what I think I'm seeing?"
Teal'c nodded, "It is indeed a Settesh guard."
"Let's take him to the base..." O'Neill commented offhandedly.
They loaded the well-armored prisoner into the back and drove quickly to the base.

George Hammond was just finishing a report when he was called to the entrance level of the mountain. Getting back up, he walked up there via elevator.
Once there, he saw Jack and Teal'c and they were supporting a currently unconscious Jaffa. Janet wasn't too far behind with a med team who immediately checked him over. Once he was cleared, he was rolled down to a solitary room.
General Hammond had Jack and Teal'c sit down with him in his office. He told them about their guests and about what had happened. They had to now form a plan to make sure that these Jaffa didn't hurt anyone else.

The doctor had been called away again and Tony's friends sat beside him. He slowly opened his eyes and looked around.
"Where am I?" He asked, confused.
Katie smiled, "Don't ask questions, Tony. Just know that your shoulder will be good as new and then we can leave."
"Hospital?" He guessed, noticing the sterile surroundings and the I.V. in his arm.
"Something like that", she smiled through her uncomfortable feelings.
He nodded slowly and sighed softly. He didn't seem too happy about being here. He was shot, didn't know where he was, and worst yet, his friends wouldn't tell him.
