Chapter 2
Daniel walks around the VIP room sorting through his things. Hearing a knock, he answers it.
"Hey, did you sleep Okay?" Andrea asks entering the room looking bright and cheery.
"Yeah, no more extremely vivid dreams." Daniel smiles at Andrea.
"Good, but eventually I'll try to help you with memory recall again. The device Jacob gave me is amazing. I had a vision with one on and it was much stronger than normal. Thank goodness no one was in pain." Andrea says walking into the room.
"You're not the girl I used to know." Daniel says leaving the door open.
"No I suppose the Goa'uld changed us both. I like the person I've become Daniel. I'm still learning about the new you, but Daniel I wish my past was as sinless as yours." Andrea says trying to confess a little.
"What do you mean?" Daniel wonders what she thinks she has done that is so bad.
"I've done some things I am not very proud of." Andrea looks away from Daniel, while she sits down on the bed.
"What happened?" Daniel asks sitting down next to her.
"It's too hard to talk about. Things that happened four years ago are difficult to remember. When I am ready I will tell you everything Daniel. It wasn't pretty." Andrea says looking upset.
"I understand Andrea, but if it becomes important you have to tell me." Daniel says wanting her to confine in him but tries not to push.
"I will Daniel. I will." Andrea blinked away tears.
Sam raps on the door then enters the room. "Hey Daniel how are you doing?"
"Good, thanks Sam." He answers back.
"Dr. Milton, they told me I could find you here." Major Carter says addressing Andrea who looks up a little upset.
"Please Major call me Andi." Andrea smiles, while trying to hide her tears.
"Ok, Andi." Sam accepts her request. "Your things are here. Also, I am ready to work."
"That's great." Andrea says standing up.
"I would like to meet with Jonas and find out what he has done with the tablets." Daniel moves towards the door.
"Okay then, I'll go with Sam and see you later." The women follow Daniel out of the room.
"Here is my lab, "Sam opens the door and walks in.
"Nice." Andre walks in behind her and looks around. "Very high tech."
"It isn't." Sam pulls out paper, smiling at Andrea's comment.
"We don't need that" Andrea pulls out a pouch she had hidden in her shirt "I have this." Andrea pulls out a small device from the pouch and handed it to Sam.
"That's Tok'ra." Sam turns on the device, which then shows a 3-D hologram of a large Ha'tak.
"Yes, this is Anubis's ship. The hologram doesn't have all the details though. I did not receive it until just before we left the Tok'ra Council." Andrea says handing the device to the Major.
"This is great, and we can fix it so it has the air shaft and the interface with my computer." Sam opens her laptop and turns it on. "Wonderful. If I can have the device for a moment." Andrea takes the device, presses some small crystals and then turns the device off and then on again revealing a new improved hologram.
"Wow that was fast." Sam looks amazed from Andrea to the hologram.
"Yeah, sorry about that I meant to show what I was doing. I have used those devices so many times its second nature." Andrea holds out the device
Sam takes the device and hooks it up to her computer. "You can show me later."
"I will," Andrea watches the Major work. "Major Carter, can I ask you something?"
"Yeah sure, what is it?" Sam stops working and looks at Andrea.
"Do you ever have horrific memories of Jolinar's memories that stick out?" Andrea looks nervous.
"Sometimes why?" Sam questions, wondering how Andrea must feel among strangers, she notice how Andrea clung to her father and Daniel.
"I just thought since you weren't blended for very long you wouldn't have all her memories." Andrea didn't know much about blending, other than what Keket's memories were of previous blends and what little Kek told her.
"I do but I can't just call them up." Sam says speaking of a Tok'ra memory device.
"Do you wish you could get rid of some of them?" Andrea asks more confident in herself and the answers she would like to know, feeling strange.
"Some, but others of hers are good and sweet, she's a part of me now." Sam says recalling the memories of Jolinar and Lantash.
"Do you ever regret anything you've done in your military career?" Andrea asks know that her line of questions may peak the Major's interest but feeling it may help her settle in better.
"Actions I've taken no, messing with the gate yes." Sam looks at Andrea. "Is something bothering you?"
"Yes, being a host wasn't easy. Kek's original mate didn't honor his rules, she took over me one too many against my will. Two years of hell before it was over. If Kek had not killed her, I don't think I could have lived with myself." Andrea looks at Sam then away
"I understand...." Sam says wonder what had happened to Andrea.
"General?" Major Carter and Dr. Milton say at the open door of General Hammond's office.
"Major, Dr. Milton I was just about to come see how you were progressing. The General speaks while standing. "Please come in."
"We are finished sir." Major Carter walks in and Dr. Milton follows her.
"It was quite easy." Dr. Milton speaks confidently.
"Good, why don't you both take a seat?" The General sits down again.
"Sir, I'd just like you to know that I was host and some of the things I've done were horrible things." Andrea says letting him know that she wasn't exactly like a Tok'ra and she had a past.
"Sir, she wants to make sure we understand that she wasn't exactly perfect." Sam says knowing that there is some kind of trauma Andrea is hiding. "I understand Dr. Milton." The General says understand that Dr. Milton wants to be accepted at the SGC.
"I just need time to adjust to everyone before I explain everything." Andrea says explaining herself.
"Thank you won't..." Andrea says before being cut off. "Major if you can give us some time." The General says wanting to speak with Andrea alone. Sam leaves.
"Sir before you begin I made promise Dr Fraiser. I have two injuries one on each arm from being restrained." Andrea says prepared to show him her arms.
"By whom?" The General says looking interested in what had happened to Dr. Milton before she arrived and why Thor was concerned that they might not have arrived safely.
"A very scared individual" Andrea says smiling.
"Did this person mean to hurt you?" The General ask inquiring if her injuries where intended or not.
"No he apologized after. I'd rather that no one knows." Andrea says looking a little embarrassed.
"That can be done as well." The General wonders why but sees no harm in what she asks so intends to keep the secret.
"Thank you sir." Andrea says grateful that her secret will be kept.
"Dr. Milton I received some interesting information on you." Hammond pulls out a manila file.
"Really." Andrea says wondering what kind of information he would have.
"Yes, let's see." The General looks at a file in front of him. "You have a PhD in anthropology, archaeology, sociology, and political science. You have a Masters in art history as well as papers out in the combined subjects. Your father is a prominent lawyer, and your uncle is a US Congressman.'
"Scary, isn't it?" Andrea grins at the General
"Frankly, I'm surprised your name never came across my desk before now." Hammond was so shock when he read the file he almost spit out his coffee.
"It probably didn't because I was sick and then I disappeared." Andrea says referring to her cancer and joining a goa'uld.
"You're right. Also we need to deal with the issue of your disappearance." The General agrees with her reasoning.
"If you don't mind sir, I believe that on my own time I will go to my parents and tell them that I went to a small remote village in South America. They'll believe it." Andrea's parents knew her to leave on sabbaticals with out notice all the time, and have no contact for weeks or months at a time.
"Our investigations have probably tipped off the private investigator your father hired to find you." The General had also received several police reports along with her FBI file on her disappearance.
"You're welcome to notify my uncle that I was found by a satellite team and that I'm helping translate for your team." Andrea says knowing her uncle would be more receptive to her return than her parents.
"You're good. I believe I will contact him personally." Hammond wanted to hear the sound of the Congressman's voice when he heard his niece was alive.
"Don't worry sir. I plan on helping the SGC the best I can." Andrea couldn't wait to start working. The rumors she had heard amazed her and now she could be a part of the progress of Earth.
Hearing a knock on the door, the General answers, "Come in."
Colonel O'Neill pokes his head, "We're ready Sir."
"We're coming." The General stands up.
After the Colonel closes the door Andrea speaks, "General one more thing. Daniel may not seem his self yet. He doesn't remember everything yet. I am trying to help him, just give him some time."
"I can do that." Hammond noticed that Daniel wasn't quite himself yet and that it would take time for him to be at home again.
"Thank you." Andrea says grateful.
"Standing in front of a projection screen with a picture of Anubis's ship, Major Carter waits for the General and Andrea to join the table where Jack, Teal'c, Daniel and Jonas sit. "As you can see Anubis's has built a larger than normal ship."
"Damn, that is one big ass ship." O'Neill states satirically. Andrea rolls her eyes.
"Now if we blow up Anubis's new weapons, he will have auxiliary weapons." Sam says pointing to the power source of more weapons.
"The Major is correct. In order to completely take out the weapons, we must destroy the ship." Andrea informs the group.
"Dr. Milton and Major Carter are correct. It would not take much for Anubis to repair his weapons." Teal'c speaks in his deep voice.
Andrea rubs her temples and then speaks. "That's where Ba'al comes in."
"What does that snake head have to do with this?" O'Neill says looking at Major Carter who has taken a seat for an answer.
Andrea takes a deep breath, looks at the General and then speaks. "Yu is dying and can no longer be trusted. If I promise Ba'al that he can have all that is Yu's when he is dead, Ba'al will not refuse the offer to take out Anubis's ship."
"Are you NUTS?" O'Neill yells while jumping up out of his seat.
"Colonel O'Neill Sit Down!!" General Hammond orders.
"Andrea you do realize you'll be giving Ba'al more power." Daniel finally says looking at Andrea.
"He's right." Jonas confirms.
"Yes, but he will most likely leave us alone for alone for a while after. Anubis will want revenge, for the destruction of his ship. Ba'al will have to fend him off." Andrea says confidently.
"Sir, she's lost her mind." O'Neill stares at her.
Looking at Jonas, Andrea says in a soft tone, "You wouldn't like the alternative."
"What is the alternative?" O'Neill asks
"I cannot say." Andrea replies.
"Tell me." O'Neill says sternly.
"No!" Andrea shouts.
Colonel O'Neill jumps up, flies across the table at Andrea, yells, "Tell me now!" grabbing her arms and holding them down with a death grip.
"Jack, no!" Daniel yells as Teal'c tries to pull O'Neill back, but O'Neill's grip is so tight that he pulls Dr. Milton with him across the table.
Andrea, who hasn't flinched, replies to O'Neill. "I do not have to tell you anything and I will not tell you." O'Neill's grip tightens. Daniel looks at Andrea, distressed that she is goading his friend but concerned she might be hurt.
"Colonel O'Neill you will let go of Dr. Milton and restrain yourself." The General orders while standing up.
The Colonel lets go, but Teal'c holds him awhile before letting go. Daniel walks around the table and checks Andrea to see if she is alright. "Are you okay, Andrea?" Daniel asks pushing up her sleeves.
Pushing him away, Andrea rubbed her arms.
"Dr. Milton?" The General asks.
"I'm fine. I have faced worse than Colonel O'Neill's wimpy grip." Andrea smiles at Sam as Sam smiles back. O'Neill glares at Major Carter.
"Sir, I believe I know how to lure Anubis into our trap." Jonas says changing the subject.
"Jonas, why don't you and Dr. Jackson work on it, while Major Carter and Teal'c escort Dr. Milton to the infirmary?" The General turns to Jack. "Colonel, in my office now!"
Andrea imitates in a low voice, "Woof, woof."
O'Neill replies, "I heard that."
The General slams the door to his office open and storms in. "Colonel I cannot believe you. She was goading you and you fell for it." Picking up a file, he throws it at the Colonel.
"What is this?" Catching the file and opening it.
"This is Dr. Andrea Milton's file that was faxed to from the Pentagon this morning." The General says trying to calm himself.
"Holy shit. She's a genius!" Jack looks at the file in surprise.
"Not only that, she's Congressman Archibald Milton's niece." The General sits in his chair and sighs. "If he ever found out, he would come here himself to see you. I don't know what he would do."
"I'm sorry General; I don't know what got into me. What do you mean 'what he would do?'"
"The Congressman is known for his Old South Politics." Hammond remembered an incident several years ago when the Congressman was harassed for decking a reporter
"Hmm. I screwed up, didn't I?" Jack looks at General upset.
"Yes you did Colonel. Now I'm going to call her uncle now. I want to tell him she is in good hands." The General leans forward and clasps his hands together. "Can I do that?"
"Yes and I will apologize to her." O'Neill says giving up.
"Good, now get out!" Hammond orders still upset at O'Neill's actions.
"Dr. Milton, do you think it was wise to provoke Colonel O'Neill like that." Teal'c asks.
"Teal'c, Major Carter, there is something you must understand. I have spent the last six years with a Goa'uld. Four of those years running a secret operation behind his back, and avoiding his Jaffa. Colonel O'Neill is peanuts." Andrea smiles at Teal'c.
"Thor said you were in danger, what happened?" Sam asks as they turn the corner.
"Kek's first prime." Andrea laughs.
"Andi, what's so funny?" Sam asks.
"His name." Andrea breaks out in a giggle.
"What warrior's name would make you laugh?" Teal'c gives Andrea confused look.
"Kal'vek," Andrea says snickering, "It referrers to his way with the ladies."
"White warrior?" Teal'c asks.
"Some name for a Jaffa, don't you think, Sam?" Andrea looks at Sam who is interested in the name.
"I'd say so." Sam says finding the name funny as well.
"After every battle he would have new slaves for me and for him" Andrea shivers. "When I let them go they were very grateful."
The three of them walk into the infirmary and Dr. Fraiser greets them. "Sam, Teal'c, Dr. Milton, I did not expect to see you again."
"She had a little run in with Colonel O'Neill!" Sam smiles.
"Well let's see what we have." Janet walks over to Andrea who is taking off her jacket.
Andrea takes off her coat. "Hmm, maybe not peanuts." Her arms still purple.
"Indeed, Dr. Milton, Colonel O'Neill exerts great strength." Teal'c says looking at Andrea's arms
"It looks as if Jack left his fingerprints as well." Dr. Fraiser pokes the purple hand marks. "What did you do?"
"She provoked him Janet." Sam looks at the marks as well.
"I do not believe it was wise!" Teal'c says looking again at the marks.
"I'm fine," wincing as the Doctor pokes some more, "I would like some aspirin."
"Are you sure Dr. Milton?" Dr Frasier says handing Andrea some pills.
"Yes," Andrea stands up and walks around "If you don't mind I'd like to go back to my room for a while. Perhaps Teal'c could escort me."
"Sounds like a good idea." Dr. Fraiser says not saying that she thought something was bothering Andrea.
"Sure, I want to talk to Janet anyway." Sam says standing next to Dr. Fraiser.
Teal'c and Andrea walk down the hall in silence. When they reach her door, she turns to him, "Thank you, if I may touch your hands. Something about you has been nagging me since I saw you walk in the gate room."
"You may." Teal'c says looking interested in what she wants with his hands.
Andrea takes his hands and flinches in pain. Letting go she grips her head in pain. "Teal'c on your next mission, be careful. Someone will try to kill you."
"Are you positive Dr. Milton?" Teal'c looks at her with great interest.
"Yes please be careful." Andrea shakes her head positively.
"Indeed I will." Teal'c says taking her warning to heart.
"Teal'c if you could see that I am not bothered, not for any reason if it is important have them continue without me." Andrea looks tired and gives Teal'c a small smile.
"As you wish." Teal'c left, nodding to the sergeant outside her door.
Daniel walks around the VIP room sorting through his things. Hearing a knock, he answers it.
"Hey, did you sleep Okay?" Andrea asks entering the room looking bright and cheery.
"Yeah, no more extremely vivid dreams." Daniel smiles at Andrea.
"Good, but eventually I'll try to help you with memory recall again. The device Jacob gave me is amazing. I had a vision with one on and it was much stronger than normal. Thank goodness no one was in pain." Andrea says walking into the room.
"You're not the girl I used to know." Daniel says leaving the door open.
"No I suppose the Goa'uld changed us both. I like the person I've become Daniel. I'm still learning about the new you, but Daniel I wish my past was as sinless as yours." Andrea says trying to confess a little.
"What do you mean?" Daniel wonders what she thinks she has done that is so bad.
"I've done some things I am not very proud of." Andrea looks away from Daniel, while she sits down on the bed.
"What happened?" Daniel asks sitting down next to her.

"I understand Andrea, but if it becomes important you have to tell me." Daniel says wanting her to confine in him but tries not to push.
"I will Daniel. I will." Andrea blinked away tears.
Sam raps on the door then enters the room. "Hey Daniel how are you doing?"
"Good, thanks Sam." He answers back.
"Dr. Milton, they told me I could find you here." Major Carter says addressing Andrea who looks up a little upset.
"Please Major call me Andi." Andrea smiles, while trying to hide her tears.
"Ok, Andi." Sam accepts her request. "Your things are here. Also, I am ready to work."
"That's great." Andrea says standing up.
"I would like to meet with Jonas and find out what he has done with the tablets." Daniel moves towards the door.
"Okay then, I'll go with Sam and see you later." The women follow Daniel out of the room.
"Here is my lab, "Sam opens the door and walks in.
"Nice." Andre walks in behind her and looks around. "Very high tech."
"It isn't." Sam pulls out paper, smiling at Andrea's comment.
"We don't need that" Andrea pulls out a pouch she had hidden in her shirt "I have this." Andrea pulls out a small device from the pouch and handed it to Sam.
"That's Tok'ra." Sam turns on the device, which then shows a 3-D hologram of a large Ha'tak.
"Yes, this is Anubis's ship. The hologram doesn't have all the details though. I did not receive it until just before we left the Tok'ra Council." Andrea says handing the device to the Major.
"This is great, and we can fix it so it has the air shaft and the interface with my computer." Sam opens her laptop and turns it on. "Wonderful. If I can have the device for a moment." Andrea takes the device, presses some small crystals and then turns the device off and then on again revealing a new improved hologram.
"Wow that was fast." Sam looks amazed from Andrea to the hologram.
"Yeah, sorry about that I meant to show what I was doing. I have used those devices so many times its second nature." Andrea holds out the device
Sam takes the device and hooks it up to her computer. "You can show me later."
"I will," Andrea watches the Major work. "Major Carter, can I ask you something?"

"Indeed, Dr. Milton, Colonel O'Neill exerts great strength." Teal'c says looking at Andrea's arms
"It looks as if Jack left his fingerprints as well." Dr. Fraiser pokes the purple hand marks. "What did you do?"
"She provoked him Janet." Sam looks at the marks as well.
"I do not believe it was wise!" Teal'c says looking again at the marks.
"I'm fine," wincing as the Doctor pokes some more, "I would like some aspirin."
"Are you sure Dr. Milton?" Dr Frasier says handing Andrea some pills.
"Yes," Andrea stands up and walks around "If you don't mind I'd like to go back to my room for a while. Perhaps Teal'c could escort me."
"Sounds like a good idea." Dr. Fraiser says not saying that she thought something was bothering Andrea.
"Sure, I want to talk to Janet anyway." Sam says standing next to Dr. Fraiser.
Teal'c and Andrea walk down the hall in silence. When they reach her door, she turns to him, "Thank you, if I may touch your hands. Something about you has been nagging me since I saw you walk in the gate room."
"You may." Teal'c says looking interested in what she wants with his hands.
Andrea takes his hands and flinches in pain. Letting go she grips her head in pain. "Teal'c on your next mission, be careful. Someone will try to kill you."
"Are you positive Dr. Milton?" Teal'c looks at her with great interest.
"Yes please be careful." Andrea shakes her head positively.
"Indeed I will." Teal'c says taking her warning to heart.
"Teal'c if you could see that I am not bothered, not for any reason if it is important have them continue without me." Andrea looks tired and gives Teal'c a small smile.
"As you wish." Teal'c left, nodding to the sergeant outside her door.
