Asgard Agendas... a Campers! story

Author's Note: If you haven't read Aspirin, Ice Cream and Asgards, you absolutely have to before reading this, or you're going to be 'what?' 'what was that?' 'where did he learn that?' 'who let out the secret?' and stuff like that. We can't have that, so go read the other one first. If you HAVE read the other one – and hopefully Good Morning Campers! - then I hope you like this one and you should probably just keep reading.

Disclaimer: I don't own any of SG-1 or SGC people, places or items; I'm just borrowing them. I do, however, own Shawn and his folks

Special Note: Thank you sk023 for the brilliant idea of using something from Washington to be Shawn's last name.

The Gate activated.

"It's SG-1's code, Sir!"

"Open the iris!"

The metal shield that protected the SGC from unwanted intruders opened, and almost immediately four figures came tumbling through. Three lay still for a moment, catching their collected breath. The fourth rose immediately and began checking the others.

"I'm all right, Teal'c," Jack said as the Jaffa reached down. The Colonel rolled over onto his back with a muffled curse, and then sat up, looking over at the rest of his team. Carter and Daniel were also beginning to sit up, and neither showed sign of serious injury.

"What happened, Colonel?" Hammond asked, walking up to the edge of the ramp and looking down at the team.

"Oh, the usual, Sir. Bad Goa'uld, lots of shooting, running and dodging."

"The planet is apparently a Goa'uld controlled one, General Hammond."

"Ya think?" Jack asked, reaching a hand up so Teal'c would help him to his feet. "They were thicker than bugs in a biker's teeth, Sir. I suggest we don't go back to ole PKA-098 again."

"I second that," Daniel said, pushing himself to his feet as well. "I'm not sure how we got out of that one, but it was close."

"We'll debrief in an hour," Hammond said. "Get to the infirmary, then get cleaned up."

"Yes, Sir."

Teal'c reached down and pulled Carter to her feet as well, before Jack could, and the four of them walked out of the Gate room. A little bruised. A little battered. But very much alive. Again.

"It would be easier if we did not have to hide." The voice was almost pouting.

"It is necessary."

"Commander Thor is resting a lot of faith in one small human." This time the voice was a little uncertain.

"He is. But I have met the boy. He could very well be our salvation as well."

"Then we should be working with him. Not protecting the-"

"It is the bargain that was made. The Asgard will keep their end of it." The voice was final, and the discussion ended.

The two Asgard ships, still very much hidden from the eyes of the Goa'uld on the ground, rose out of the planet's atmosphere and headed back to their Destroyer. They would probably not end up on this planet again. If the Humans were foolish enough to return – which they undoubtedly were not – then they'd escape without the help of the Asgard.

It was well past his bedtime, but Shawn wasn't anywhere near ready to go to bed. He was sitting in his room, at his desk, playing on his computer. It was a gift from his parents for his tenth birthday, which had been only a week before. Shawn smiled, remembering how excited he'd been when he'd seen it there, all set up and ready when he'd woken up.

"Greetings, Shawn."

The boy flinched in surprise at the voice that suddenly came out of the new computer's speakers, but didn't scream as he had the first time Thor had decided to use his computer in his own way.

"I wish you wouldn't do that," he complained, trying to get his heart out of his throat. "Why don't you give me some warning or something?"

The small gray alien with the large eyes suddenly appeared on his computer's monitor. The Asgard had been more pleased to see the new computer than Shawn had been, since it gave them a very convenient means of communication with the boy. A means that they didn't have to worry about having discovered by the boy's mother on the few times she came into his room to clean or to get his laundry.

"What would you like me to do?" Thor asked, curiously.

"I don't know... a beep or something to let me know you're going to say something. Anything to warn me."

"I will keep that in mind." Thor promised. "SG-1 has returned, safely. Just so you know."

"It was a Goa'uld planet, then?"

"As we knew it was."

"You got them out okay?"

"Yes."

"Good." He wondered if that meant they were going to have some down time. And if that meant he'd have a chance to spend some time with Jack.

"Are you ready for your lesson?"

"Yeah."
