Authors notes: Thank you to everyone who has reviewed! It means so much to me! As per requests, I am adding a new chapter! *YAY!* Trust me though, I propably won't be able to post much, seems the age of research papers and finals are upon me once again... I fear the coming month more than coming face to face with Yu. Not that that's not terrifying though... hmmm... I may have just gotten an inspiration...
AND: I figured out how to make it so my story doesn't appear so wierd on the site! YAY!
Oh yeah! Heres the chapter! Enjoy!
PS: Instead of all of the notes on his thoughts...I decided to make this chapter entirely as a first person narrative! Yay.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hmmm...what to do next...well, seems teaching Teal'c the internet seems the least painful. So, might as well get that done first. You would think that with all the money poured into this project that the SGC could get a decent assistant for me. I mean, I know laziness isnt permitted in the Air Force, but this is simply repulsive. He doesnt do any work. And I know that if I get rid of him, the higher up's will think I'm just picky and will propably either send Bailey back or just leave me without any help. I guess I'll just have to talk to the General...Im sick of...
The sergeant's thoughts were interrupted as he heard his name called from behind him, then again. Obviously someone wanted his attention.
"Sergeant! Sergeant! Wait! Glad I found you here!"
Well, it was now no suprise why she wanted to find me. In her right hand was a laptop...stress the word was. The thing looked like it'd been through hell and back! Wires were sticking out from everywhere and a piece...no...that can't be what I think it is...oh boy...yep. It's the hard drive...in three pieces...being held to the former piece of technology by duct tape.
"Um...wow...what happened to that thing?"
"I know you said it was waterproof, which helps on a lot of missions, but it didnt help on the one to P3D 910. Here, let me explain. We were sitting around and talking for a while, and I decided to get some research done on the Ion drive we got, trying to see what potential it had for increasing the subspace field of a glider or even the F-302's. So, I had my laptop out and was working when Daniel came and told me it was his turn for watch. I left my laptop where it was, thinking it would be safe, but it wasn't...as you can see."
"Yep...I think you are definately right about that Ma'am."
"So you can be sure that I was suprised when I awoke. I went out to type up a theory I came up with, and found my computer like this, only a little more attached. So, I put it in my bag and we geared up to head back to give the General our report, and somehow, while we were in our meeting, the person I gave my bag to when we arrived in the gate room had returned my bag to my room...only when I took the computer out of my bag, the computer was in a lot more pieces than when I left the planet."
"Let me make a wild guess...you need a new one. Well, I'll order one for you, but go ahead and take one from the computer storage room. We stocked up for a while on laptops for off-base activities...but they never got used."
Major Carter handed me the laptop and the only thing I could do is wonder exactly what happened to this poor pitiful piece of technology.
"Thanks...next time I'll try and keep the Colonel AWAY from my laptop off-world."
"You mean that he..."
"Stepped on it...yes, that's what I mean..."
"Oh man...that's unbelievable..." I could barely hold back a laugh!
"Right. Thanks Sergeant."
"Youre welcome Major."
Well...can't say that I was expecting that...but it sure is unexpected! Hmmm...why did she duct tape this together? Might as well go to my lab now and put the order in with the financial department for a new laptop. Hmmm...I also have to put in an order for the Colonel's computer as well. What am I going to put in that report...theres no computer to prove that the colonel's was damaged...This could make for an interesting report. A Colonel who zatted his computer and a Major who had hers stepped on...and I can't write any of it down...well, at least not in an official report.
