Friends.
"Hey Doc!" Jack said walking into Janet Fraiser's office.
"Colonel. Brianna asleep?" She asked putting down the file she was reading.
"Yeah, just drifted off. Um...I think she's colour-blind."
"What makes you say that?"
Jack handed her a sheet of paper, Janet looked at it and smiled.
"She's good, seen as it's her first ever picture, apart from the green sun."
"That's what I thought."
"You're right, she is colour-blind. The question is does she see green or red?" The doctor stood up and grabbed the file on her desk. "We have a meeting with General Hammond in about five minutes, you coming?"
"Sure, after you ma'am." He tipped his invisible hat and bowed.
"Why thank you kind Sir." She smirked and complied taking Brianna's pictures with her.
--------------------------------
"Well Sir, she is an incredibly strong girl. She broke Captain Redmond's knuckles in five places and she is still feeling the effects of the wounds covering her body. She is afraid of my male nurses and Dr Warner isn't allowed in the same room as her, she got very anxious and distressed when he tried to examine her."
"She freaked Sir," Colonel O'Neill stated. "She ran and hid under Janet's desk."
"Sir, I suggest we move her to a private room where she won't meet anyone she hasn't already met."
"Agreed. She can move into a VIP room when she wakes up next. Anything else?"
"Yes Sir, she's colour-blind." She handed out the drawing's the girl had made.
"I do not understand. She can see colours?"
"Yes Teal'c, in Brianna's case she can't see green." Ceri appeared in one of the vacant chairs.
"Will you stop doing that?" Yelled Jack.
She disappeared and reappeared standing behind him. "What, that?"
"You trying to give me a heart attack?"
Ceri laughed. "So what if I am?"
"Ceri I presume?" Asked Hammond.
"The one and only, George I presume?"
"Don't push it."
"There's nothing you can do about it. Anyway," She sat next to Daniel. "As I was saying, Bri can't see green, it looks red to her."
"Thank you Ceri."
"No probs!"
"So, why are you here?" Daniel inquired.
"Just thought you'd like to know, Bri is no longer in the infirmary."
"What, why?" Janet jumped up.
"Chill, she's outside the door. She escaped and ended up here."
Sure enough, the door opened and Brianna pocked her head round.
"Hey Bri, how they treating you?" The girl's face lit up when she saw her sister. "Coming in or not?"
Brianna slowly stepped into the room and slid along the wall until she ended up in the corner.
Ceri bounded up to her and started jabbering on to her in Welsh.
"Anyway, scans show that she has higher levels of brain activity than normal humans. One part of her brain that shouldn't be in use if she were from Earth is being used, I don't know what exactly it does but it may result in her increases in strength."
"Thank you Doctor."
Ceri had finished talking to Brianna and Bri was now making her way over to where Daniel was sitting. She climbed into the chair next to him and stared across the table at Sam.
Figuring that Sam was no threat and had actually been on her planet to rescue her, she turned her attention to the table where her pictures were. Reaching out slowly, she pulled one to her and held it to her chest.
"Mine." She whispered so quietly that only Daniel heard her.
"Yes it is." He smiled at her and pushed the rest of her drawings towards her.
She looked at them, then at Daniel, then back at the pictures. No one had ever given her anything other than food and bruises. People just took things away from her, her sister, the little mouse she had found once, but these people weren't like that. She could trust them, something she had hardly ever thought about, she could trust Ceri; she thought she could trust Daniel but he went away. He's back now and she can actually touch him, his friends helped her escape and now she felt safe.
She looked at the picture on top of the pile; a forest, the one place she had felt free. She pushed it towards Daniel.
"For me?"
She nodded her head. "Friend."
"Hey Doc!" Jack said walking into Janet Fraiser's office.
