When Sam woke up the next morning she undid the handcuffs and sat on the
edge of the bed she knew what needed to be done so she picked up the phone
and dialled the base.
"It's Major Carter, I need to speak to General Hammond immediately."
"I'm sorry ma'am but the General's line appears to be busy." An apologetic airman said.
"Umm, put me through to Dr Jackson." She said rubbing her eyes.
"Of course man." She waited a second while he transferred her call.
"Jackson." Daniel answered the phone.
"Daniel, its Sam."
"Hey Sam, how's Hawaii?" He asked.
"It's fine. Daniel I need you to scramble the line." She said.
"Give me a minute." There was a buzz while he set the scrambler. "Okay, what's going on Sam? You and Jack didn't have a fight did you?"
"No."
"He isn't hurt is he?" Daniel asked think why she needed the line scrambled.
"No, he's asleep at the moment." She glanced at her sleeping husband.
"So what's wrong?"
"We had a welcoming committee when we got here." She said.
"Who?"
"Mayborne, apparently he wanted to give us a heads up on something the NID is planning."
"Guess we couldn't even pull off an uninterrupted honeymoon. Sorry." He apologised.
"It's okay. I got my cocktail or two; it was in a hotel room but never mind. I was trying to call Hammond but his line is busy."
"He's on the phone with the President about something I think. What did Mayborne want?"
"Apparently the NID are planning on abducting me. They think they have more chance from here than they have at the base." She told him.
"Why do they want to abduct you? It's a little extreme to abduct Air Force Majors with no reason."
"Mayborne says they don't want me having kids with Jack. He doesn't have the right gene pool and they think that because of Jollinar something of the genetic code will pass on and they can get to experiment on them."
"That doesn't sound good. How did Jack react to that?"
"He managed to keep me from going into hysterical mode and drinking way too much alcohol. Surprisingly he didn't want to go straight and kill someone either. Which was the best thing to do because I'm more rational this morning."
"Sam, give me the number there and I'll get the General and we'll call you back in about ten minutes."
"Thanks Daniel."

"Yes Mr President." General Hammond said as Daniel burst into his office. "Excuse me a minute Mr President." He put the President on hold. "Dr Jackson, I'm on the phone with the President of the United States, this had better be important."
"It is. Sam's been trying to call you. They had a visit from Colonel Mayborne last night, the NID are planning on abducting her." Hammond took the President off hold.
"Mr President, I'm going to have to call you back later, something has come up that needs my attention.. Yes sir." He hung up. "What else did she say?"
"Not much more than that. I have her number I told her we would call her back."
"What about Jack?"
"Sam said he was being calm and rational. Either he doesn't believe it or he's not trying to scare her anymore than she already is."
