Chaos Theory: Chapter Four
Jade
slipped out of the crawlspace she and Daniel had traveled through, and she
heard a resounding "fwump" as her boots hit dust-coated concrete.
Daniel exiting behind her, Jade looked around the room they had just entered
and she stared in awe as lights dimly began to flicker on and off above them.
"Woah..." Jade whispered, looking up and down the room, realizing
that they seemed to be in a huge hall.
"Catacombs..." Daniel murmured, looking over to the walls.
"Roman catacombs..."
"Is it just me..." Jade began as she walked down the hall a few

No sooner than Daniel had turned to look at her, a manacle-like arm shot out,
grabbing Jade by the wrist and yanking her to the far wall. "JADE!!"
She cried out, feeling braces lock her to the wall, and Jade felt her other
wrist be pinned to it as well.
"Dr. Jackson!" She yelped, her eyes wide with fear as Daniel tried to

she wasn't sure what had happened, and she still tried to talk. But, it seemed
that she'd gone numb, and her bright blue eyes slowly started to fade as her
entire body began to relax. She could slowly feel her eyelids falling, but she
could still see Daniel shouting her name, shooting his gun at the braces and
watching the bullets ricochet...

said as he rejoined Jack and the fallen Sam at the mouth of the cave. "I
do not believe that there is another exit. We are trapped."
"No..." Jack sighed, shaking his head and standing. "No, we'll
get out. We can blast the cave."
"But, not without alerting the J'affa."
"J'affa we can take." Jack said simply, standing and taking his P-90
off, dropping it to the ground. "We just have to wait..."
