Happy Easter!!!!!! Cyber Choccie eggs all round.
The great and powerful...
It was three weeks after the Gould incident; Daniel and Brianna were up and about again taking things slowly, Sam was still in a coma she had been moved to a private room but was still hooked to the monitors. Jacob was given a VIP room on the base because he wouldn't leave. Janet had to order Teal'c to drag both Sam's father and CO away from her so they could eat and sleep.
Brianna was sitting in a chair reading a book allowed to Sam, Jack and Jacob were sleeping.
"'I am the great and pow...powerful Oz'." She read slowly. "Maybe he's a Gould, the witches probably are... Hello Ceri." She said without looking up.
"Hey Bri, how's she doing?" The ghost asked.
"I don't know, I don't understand what's wrong but I know she can hear me." The girl frowned.
"How do you know that?"
"I just do. There's something not quite right about it, she looks asleep but I know she's awake."
"Very weird, maybe you should tell Janet."
"Tell Janet what?" The doctor asked walking in.
"Sam's awake, she just looks asleep." Brianna said.
"How can you know that?"
"I can sense it. She hears everything we say, she just can't respond. Or she doesn't want to."
"I don't understand."
"She's not actually awake, but she's dreaming as well as listening to what we say."
Janet frowned and continued to check Sam's vitals.
"Bri, maybe you can do that thing." Ceri said.
"No! It's too dangerous, you..."
"If you were able to do it, it would prove that Sam is still awake. You could help her."
"Or kill her." The girl whispered.
"What are you on about?" Janet asked.
"When Bri was very little she found out she could get into people's heads if they were asleep, unconscious or in a coma, but they had to be dreaming." Ceri explained.
"She can get into people's dreams?"
"Yes."
"It's too dangerous!" Brianna warned.
"It could work."
"Like it did on you?" She glared at her sister.
"That was different. I was already dieing, you know that."
"I won't do it, I won't kill her!" She screamed.
Janet pulled the girl into a hug. "Sh, I won't make you do anything you don't want to."
"Look Bri, I have to go, for good." Ceri said. "I'm moving on, you have people who care about you now so the powers that be are pulling me out. Just think about it okay, Sam is stronger than I was."
"Don't leave me." She begged.
"Sorry, I'll see you in the after life."
"Bye." She sobbed into Janet's shoulder as Ceri disappeared.
Jack and Daniel walked into the room half an hour later, Brianna was reading again and Janet was sitting on the edge of Sam's chair.
"Hey guys." Jack smiled.
"Hi." Janet said.
Brianna carried on reading. "The Scarecrow was Dorothy's favourite you know." She added.
"How long has she been in here?" Daniel asked.
"Quite a while, she hasn't stopped reading since Ceri left."
"Yeah, Ceri paid us a little visit in the commissary causing a little mayhem." Jack grinned.
"She told us everything."
"Hey Bri, want to go get some food?" Jack asked.
"There's no place like home, there's no place like home." She read.
"Look Bri," He said taking the book off her. "You need a break, I'm sure Sam won't mind."
"She will, I have to finish the book." She tried to grab the book back.
"She's seen the film, she knows what happens."
"I want to read it to her." She sank back into the chair. "I won't do it."
"We weren't asking you to do it." Daniel reassured her.
"It's too dangerous..."
"Ceri told us the risks, Teal'c is talking to Jacob and Hammond. It's up to you if they agree."
"We don't think it would harm Sam in any way." Janet added.
"I'll think about it." She said before walking out of the room.
"She could be Sam's last chance." Janet said.
"I know." Jack said grimly.
