Chapter 14
Colonel O'Neill walks into briefing room. Andrea is there but no one else. "Good morning. You're up early again."
"No more than you." Andrea types, not looking up.
Jack walks over "So are you sure about this?"
Andrea nods. "I'm positive."
"So where are you going?" Jack looks at her.
"I can't say." Andrea closes her laptop.
"Sure you can!" Jack smiles.
Andrea sighs and looks up at the stubborn man. "I don't have a choice Colonel. I can't tell you."
"Sure you can." Jack grins, knowing he's frustrating her.
"I wish, if I could tell you about it I would, but as you know..." Andrea refers to what she told him before about the Asgard having secrets she has to keep.
"Don't ask, don't tell. I hate that." Jack frowns.
Andrea looks at the gate and smiles. "Look at it this way; I'll be out of trouble."
"Some how I don't believe that." Jack smiles.
"Good morning." Major Carter enters the room.
"Come to see me off." Andrea says turning to look at Sam.
"Yes, thanks for the information yesterday." Sam says walking toward them.
"You're welcome. Good-bye." Andrea and her stuff disappear in a blue light.
"She knew!" O'Neill disappears in another flash of blue light. Sam is left alone in the briefing room.
"O'Neill" Thor says.
Jack turns around to look at Thor. "Hello, Thor. I take it you are leaving with Dr. Milton now."
"Yes, we will return when we are finished." Thor answers.
"Are you sure I you cannot tell me what you're doing."
"If you were told and then captured, the information would leak and it would be a disaster Jack." Andrea enters the chamber. "Thanks Thor I'm all set."
Thor nods his head. "Good, O'Neill your communications with us should now be working."
"Bye, Jack I'll send you a message." Andrea grins.
"Great." O'Neill disappears.
"Why are you here?" Yu's first prime demands.
"Yu is gone, I took him." Andrea stands wearing purple robes.
"How dare you?" Yu's First Prime demands.
"Oh posh, he's dying and he attacked an Asgard protected planet." Andrea says.
"You cannot." The Jaffa says.
"I can and I have. You now have a choice to join Ba'al or fight him. I personally would join him. Although Kek is looking for more Jaffa as well, all Yu's territory is now Ba'al's. Good bye." Andrea turns off the screen and leaves orbit.
"Are you sure Major Kawalsky, assigning another member to the team would allow you to go on other missions." General Hammond sits at his desk.
"She's only been gone three weeks." Kawalsky says sitting across from the General. "I'm sure, but we have mission you could go on while she's gone." Hammond says holding a file in his hand.
A voice booms over the speakers, from the control room, "General Hammond and Major Carter to the Control Room."
"What is it Sergeant?" The General asks walking into the control room.
"We're receiving a message from our Asgard communication device." Sgt. Davis says turning around to look at General Hammond. Sam walks into the room and the Sergeant stands up.
Major Carter sits down where the sergeant was sitting. "It should work."
Andrea's voice comes out over the speaker. "Stargate Command this is Dr. Milton. Come in."
"Dr. Milton this is Major Carter. How is it going?" Sam smiles and looks up at the General.
"Well. It's talking a little longer than I hoped. I'll be back by the end of the week hopefully." Andrea explains.
"That's good to hear Dr. Milton." Hammond says.
"Hi, General sorry it took so long to call, I've been busy." Andrea voice says relaxed. "Tomorrow is Mos. The sarcophagus will be ready for pick up. I can't go and Colonel O'Neill wouldn't let me if I could."
"What needs to be done?" Hammond asks.
"Just show up, Kal'vek will be there." Andrea says, knowing Sam will understand what Kal'vek being there means.
"Are you sure?" Sam asks.
"I'm almost positive. He will expect me to be there, I doubt any of you will be in danger. Go and pick up and then leave, that would be the best." Andrea speaks, believing that SG-1 will be safe.
"Your house looks nice." Sam says.
"Great! Can you make sure the sarcophagus is at the SGC in the med lab?" Andrea asks.
"May I ask why Dr. Milton?" Hammond wonders why since they don't know anyone other than the goa'uld that uses the Sarcophagus.
"General I'll be bringing a gou'ald with me." Andrea informs him.
"Is that wise Doctor?" Hammond at Major Carter exchange looks.
"I'll make contact before bringing it, but it's very weak." Andrea voice sounds hurried.
"I'll speak with Dr. Fraiser, and let her know about it." Hammond says.
"Okay, I have to go. Dr. Milton out." The connection dies.
SG-1 sits in the conference room with General Hammond. Colonel O'Neill looks extremely annoyed. "Obviously she's bringing a goa'uld." Sam says looking at the General.
Jack drops his pen. "She's really lost it this time."
"Jack!" Daniel says in Andrea's defense.
Sam looks at the Colonel. "Sir, she did say he was weak."
"Meaning?" Jack rubs his face.
Teal'c looks at O'Neill. "Perhaps, she and Thor have captured one of the System Lords, and are unable to heal him."
General Hammond nods. "We should prepare for who ever she brings. Major, what about your trip to retrieve the technology?"
Sam nods. "As you know Andrea made the deal with Kek. According to what she said earlier this morning. Tomorrow is Mos."
Everyone looks at Daniel nods. "Mos is a holiday. I don't know the specifics but, the Jaffa will be busy patrolling the city."
O'Neill looks at Daniel. "She made this deal and we're supposed to go get this stuff. It smells like a trap."
Teal'c looks at the General and O'Neill. "I do not believe that Dr. Milton would send us into a trap."
Hammond turns to Major Carter. "Before you leave, send a UAV to check the are."
Sam nods. "Yes sir."
Sg-1 steps through the gate. "Welcome back!" Tonner steps forth offering a greeting.
Colonel O'Neill walks toward the sarcophagus, "Holy shit, she was right!"
"Indeed O'Neill, Kek has honored his deal with Dr. Milton." Teal'c answers.
"Jack." Daniel notices a Jaffa watching them.
Kek's First Prime walks up to them. "I'm Kal'vek, Lord Kek sends his greetings. May I ask where Lady Andrea is?"
"She was unable to come." Daniel watches Kal'vek.
"Why not, His lordship honored the deal?" Kal'vek looks at them, his arrogance showing through his exterior.
"She had other duties to attend to." Sam answers.
Kal'vek laughs, "That is what she leads you to believe."
"Colonel we should go," Sam says while inspecting the crates.
"Okay folks grab stuff and get it out of here." O'Neill dials the gate.
"What do I tell his Lordship?" Kal'vek looks angry.
"I don't know, be creative." O'Neill is that last of the team through the gate.
Thor's ship hovers above Kelowna. "Thor, I should be in and out."
"Be careful Andrea, these people are not ready for the universe." Thor says standing up.
"I will Thor. I just want to peek around, grab the crystal and get out of there." Andrea stares at the beautiful planet.
Thor transports Andrea to the planet. Grabbing a Kelonians newspaper on her way to the warehouse where the government stored gou'ald artifacts. In the warehouse Andrea finds the crystal and returns to Thor's ship.
"You are finished?" Thor asks.
"Not yet I need to get the information, and then return the crystal. They're idiots Thor all of them." Andrea downloads the information from the crystal.
"They are very young." Thor says looking at Andrea.
"I don't think that has anything to do with them building a bomb and using it Thor." Andrea returns the crystal to the spot where she found it.
Jacob steps out of the gate and walks down the ramp.
"Hey Dad." Sam says walking into the Gate room.
"Hey Sam, Jack, Teal'c. You look well Daniel." Jacob looks at the four.
"What's with the visit, Jacob?" Colonel O'Neill asks.
"Yu is gone." Selmac answers.
"Yu, Yu is gone?" Jack asks looking at Jacob.
"An operative reported that he was not in his sarcophagus when the Jaffa went to awaken him." Jacob looks up and answers.
Teal'c raises his eyebrow. "Was he not guarded?"
"He was it is as if he just disappeared." Selmac answers.
"Can he do that?" Jack's forehead wrinkles with confusion.
"Did he ascend?" Sam turns to her father then looks at Daniel.
"Nothing was found in the sarcophagus, and the gou'ald do not just disappear." Selmac answers.
"Could Anubis have taken him?" Daniel asks.
"That is not likely?" Jacob answers.
"Major Carter we're receiving a transmission from the Asgard." A voice says over the intercom. All leave the gate room.
Jacob, Sam, Jack, Daniel and Teal'c enter the control room. "Stargate Command this is Dr. Milton." Andrea voice says in greeting.
Sam leans over and speaks into the microphone. "This is Major Carter. Colonel O'Neill and my dad are with me as well as Teal'c and Daniel."
"Hello all, my visitor and I will meet you in the med lab you may want to make sure it's safe." Andrea says her grin, visible in her voice.
"It's been set up." Sam says.
"Milton out." Andrea finishes.
"Visitor?" Selmac asks.
"I don't know who." Jack says looking at Jacob.
"Yu!" Jacob says.
Janet Fraiser stands in the medical Lab waiting. "Hello Dr. Milton." Dr. Fraiser says when Andrea appears in front of her.
"Dr. Fraiser, it is good to see you again." Andrea looks at the Sarcophagus.
"Cassandra said thank you for the advice." Janet says walking around to look at the Sarcophagus.
"It wasn't a problem. What Nirti did to her was an experience, but she's special and has a place in the future I want her to know that." Andrea explains.
The door opens and O'Neill walks in. "You're back, and Thor didn't want to see me?"
"He had to go." Andrea answers, looking at O'Neill.
"Oh, who is in the box?" Jack points to the sarcophagus.
"Yu." Andrea answers.
"Me?" Jack looks confused.
"No, Yu." Jacob says walking into the room.
"I guess the Tok'ra know." Andrea look up at Jacob and smiles brightly.
"You did a good job of making it a mystery Dr. Milton." Selmac says to her.
"How were you able to get him?" Daniel says walking into the room with Sam and Teal'c.
"Thor did it; he's so out of it. It was quiet easy." Andrea says pull off her pack.
"We did not know how he disappeared." Jacob says look at Andrea.
"What? That sneaky little worm." Andrea sounds upset.
"Who?" Sam asks looking at Andrea.
"Yu's First Prime. Sam this is for you." Andrea hands her two disks.
"What are these?" Sam looks at the disks.
"It's Information on early Naquidra research." Andrea answers.
"How did you get it?" Daniel asks, confused.
"I found another planet where Naquidra was used." Andrea lies, looking away from Daniel. "Daniel you look much better."
"Thanks, I feel much better." Daniel smiles when he answers.
"Shall we awaken Yu, for all the good it will do." Andrea asks looking at Jacob.
Janet nods looking at Jacob as well. "I'm ready."
Jacob opens the sarcophagus. Everyone stands back. Teal'c prepares his zat to fire. Yu lies still in the open chamber; his hair flaked with gray strands opening his eyes. "You, why am I here?"
"Would you rather be in the hands of Anubis?" Andrea asks him.
"Anubis is dead you fool." Yu says looking at Andrea.
"He really is out of it." Daniel says looking at Sam.
"Is it possible to remove the symbiote, and free the host?" Andrea asks feeling as if the question came from someone else.
"Yes Andrea, may I ask why you ask?" Jacob and Sam look at Andrea with questions on their faces. Andrea shrugs.
"Where are my Jaffa?" Yu grabs Dr. Fraiser and stands up. Andrea seeing him act jumps grabs him and pulls him away.
"Whoa!" Jack pulls out his berretta and points it at Yu.
"Not too weak." Dr. Fraiser looks at Sam.
O'Neill looks at Andrea. "Yeah well for the record I don't think having him here is a good idea.
"He's too far gone for anything Colonel." Andrea says smiling.
Andrea looks over at Daniel. "Daniel, can you get my blue note book please?"
"Where is it?" Daniel asks.
"It's in your lab." Andrea turns to Jacob. Daniel runs out of the room. "Thor said that he only had a few more days anyway." Andrea releases Yu, she and Sam strap him to a gurney.
"Selmac is it possible..." Andrea pauses, closing her eyes she waits.
Jacob looks at Andrea. "We can remove it here, right now. Are you ok?"
"What is it Andrea?" Janet looks at Andrea, assessing that Andrea isn't ill.
Andrea opens her eyes and looks around. "I feel like someone's standing over me whispering in my ear."
"No one's there I can see." Jack says.
"Very funny Colonel!" Andrea says looking at the Colonel. Dr. Fraiser laughs.
"I try." Jack beams.
Daniel, Teal'c, Andrea, and Colonel O'Neill stand in the view room. Andrea watches as Jacob removes the symbiote from the body of the man that housed it. "It's ok now, you can let go."
Sam puts the symbiote in a tank, while Dr. Fraiser monitors the power voltage and the health of the symbiote. "He's not too happy Dad." The Symbiote squirms in the tank.
"That's because he will never be able to have a host again. And knows he's just left his last host."
"Ba'al must be now very powerful now." Daniel says from the view room above.
"Perhaps, or maybe not." Andrea says vaguely.
"He is Andrea, you know that. What did you do?" Selmac asks, Jacob look at Andrea suspicious.
"Nothing Selmac I swear!" Andrea says in defense.
"I find that hard to believe." Jacob says.
"I made a slight suggestion that they could join someone else. And they always have the option to rebel." Andrea grins.
"T says they may do that." O'Neill says into the microphone.
"I hope your right Teal'c." Andrea looks at the host body. "He's still alive; that's strange."
"What's up?" Jack asks walking up behind Andrea.
Andrea turns around. "Thor says thank you."
"For what?" O'Neill looks at her confused.
"Colonel, you really helped them out a lot. The replicators are no where near the numbers they were before." Andrea says walking toward the Elevator.
"You seem more confident than when you left. So answer my question?" Jack looks at her curious.
Andrea shakes her head. "No." Andrea changes the subject. "Stay the hell away from Felger."
"What's he done now?" Jack says almost whining.
"It's more like what he's going to do." Andrea smiles, and then frowns.
"Why do I get the feeling I'm not going to like it." Jack looks at her, a very serious expression on his face.
"Because you're not, I'm going to talk about at the briefing; also there are some things I know that will help us out." Andrea says trying to lighten the mood.
Jack looks at her knowing the subject is closed until the briefing. "So I hope you like your place. Kawalsky tried to run off with your car."
"That little worm." Andrea clinches her hand.
"Don't worry it's still where you left it." O'Neill grins.
"Good. Look I need to get some things done before the briefing." Andrea says looking down at her watch.
"Okay see you later." Jack turns around and heads the other direction.
