There is a scene where Daniel references, Jack jumping Andi. The bruises on her arms explained here. I may later have a prequil explaining Daniel, Martouf, and Kawalsky's introductions to Andrea before returning to the SGC.

Chapter 22

SG-1 appears on the bridge of the Prometheus. Colonel Ronson looks up at Colonel O'Neill in shock. "Colonel O'Neill, what are you and your team doing here?"

"We come baring large gifts." O'Neill says, looking at Colonel Ronson who doesn't seem to happy.

"Gifts, how did you get an Asgard ship?" Ronson asks back.

Daniel grins from behind Jack and steps out. "My wife is close to the Asgard." Daniel says.

Ronson's mouth drops open. "Dr. Jackson? I thought he was dead."

Sam can't help but smile. "A lot has happened in the past few months." Major Carter says to the Colonel.

Ronson shakes his head. "What gifts?"

"We brought you a Stargate." Jack says with his classic smug grin.

Ronson looks at Colonel O'Neill thoroughly confused. "You brought me a Stargate, where did it come from."

"The Yucatan, Peninsula." Teal'c says.

O'Neill shakes his head and looks at Ronson. "Dr. Andrea Jackson arranged for the Asgard to let us bring it here. If it weren't for her the gate would be in a warehouse some where on Area 51."

"Right, so where is the gate?" Ronson says.

Jack can't help but feel smug. "On the Asgard ship. Along with your very own DHD."

Ronson looks at O'Neill, scowling. "We'll we should make room for it. Has an Iris been installed?"

"Yes, very quickly too." Carter answers.

Ronson says grateful that he can send them back quickly. "Great, so when do we get it."

"AJ's working on that as we speak." O'Neill says calling Andrea by her pet name.

"Colonel," A young woman says, "There is a report that some things are being moved in the storage bay."

"Asgard technology got to love it." Daniel grins at Ronson.

Ronson turns to the Major at the control. "Has the Stargate appeared yet?"

"Yes, sir along with a DHD." The woman confirms.

Ronson turns back to O'Neill. "So when do I get to meet the other doctor Jackson?"

Daniel takes the opportunity to answer. "She'll be along when the Asgard come to pickup their ship."

Sam looks at Colonel Ronson ready to get down to business. "If you don't mind, I'd like to check the gate out and see if it's ok. I should also brief someone on how to run the iris and hook it up to your computer systems."

"Go ahead Major." Ronson says to Sam.

"Thank you, Teal'c I could use your help." Sam turns to Teal'c.

Sam is inspecting the gate with Teal'c, two hours later when Andrea, appears two feet behind Teal'c. "Did you intend to scare me Andrea Jackson?"

Andrea smiles at Teal'c when he turns around. "Never, I was just testing your senses."

"And did they pass?" Teal'c asks.

Andrea beams a smile at him. "With flying colors."

Sam looks up at Andrea. "It's almost set up."

"Good, have you told them how to dial yet and give us the gate addresses so we can reach them?" Andrea says looking around.

Sam grabs something and walks to the DHD. "Not yet, I want to get it hooked up first."

"It looks good." Andrea says.

Sam does something stops and looks at Andrea. "Thanks, I think we're almost finished. Colonel Ronson wants to meet you."

"I'm sure he does. He can wait, I want to help you at them moment." Andrea replies in a tone much like O'Neill, moving forward to help Carter with survey of the DHD.

"Can you hand me that?" Carter asks pointing to a tool.

"Sure." Andrea says picking up the tool.

Ronson looks at O'Neill. "So this gate will work?"

Daniel nods. "There is no indication that it shouldn't. Major Carter checked everything with Andrea's help twice on the trip here."

Ronson after hearing a short brief on what has happened looks at O'Neill. "Right and you really trust this woman you've known for four months."

O'Neill answers. "She proved herself from the beginning, and she was a candidate for the program the pentagon wanted years ago anyway. Daniel knew her from before, and they had been living with the Tok'ra for a month before they return to the SGC."

"It all Sounds too good to be true." Ronson says not believing everything he's heard.

"Colonel O'Neill didn't like her at first." Daniel says giving his input, even though it was not wanted. The two Colonels stare at him. "You jumped her Jack, or did you forget that."

"You attacked her?" Ronson asks.

O'Neill defends himself; remembering that Kawalsky told him that when Andrea took Daniel to the Tok'ra Charlie had tried to stop her. "I didn't attack her! Good grief it was Kawalsky who gave her those darn bruises in the first place. I wanted her to explain her lunacy, and tell what she was hiding."

Daniel grins. "He flew across the table at her."

Ronson eyes get really big. "Really, I can't wait to meet this wonder of a woman."

Teal'c and Andrea stand out of the way, as Major Carter explains the Prometheus Gate's controls to a group of people who were selected to run it. Carter explains for the tenth time that it is import, that they know where they are and what symbols qualify as points when dialing the gate. "Now you must always know your reference point..."

Andrea shakes her head at the group. "I wonder if they are ever going to get it."

"Do believe they don't understand what Major Carter is saying?" Teal'c asks Andrea.

"They understand it's the responsibility they don't get. It should be hooked to the ships computer location system. By not doing that, they have to manually input all the factors into the computer. If a mistake is made they may not know it." Andrea says to Teal'c watching the men and women's faces.

Teal'c nods. Colonel O'Neill, Daniel, and a Man in a flight suit walk into the room and stop to talk to Carter who has finished her speech.

"Does it work Major Carter?" The man asks looking at the new contents abroad his ship.

Sam nods to the man. "It should, if it does I don't know why."

"Then we should test it." Ronson says wanting to see it work for himself.

"Not yet, there are a few more things left to do regarding the Iris." Carter says head toward the gate with her tools again.

"Colonel Ronson, I'd like you to meet my wife, Dr. Andrea Jackson." Daniel says watching Andrea and Teal'c watch them back. Daniel leads the colonel over to the two while, O'Neill and Carter have a short discussion.

"Andrea this is Colonel Ronson." Daniel says while Ronson and Andi give each other apposing looks.

Andrea puts her hand out for a shake. "Nice to meet you Colonel."

"Like wise, I'm told it was you who made it possible to get the gate here." Ronson takes her hand and grimaces when his hard grip is met with a crushing shake.

"It wasn't difficult; you'll need the gate later anyway." Andrea lets go of his hand, and grins at O'Neill who is watching them from across the room.

"It will be a big help with supplies right now." Ronson says pulling his hand away and rubbing it behind his back. Across the room Jack breaks out laughing at the sight of Ronson rubbing his hand.

"Carter you have to see this?" Jack whispers.

"What?" Turning to look and not seeing what O'Neill sees. "What are you laughing at?" Sam says in a light tone of voice.

"Ronson, he's rubbing the hand Andrea shook." Jack whispers back.

Sam laughs. "She's trying to impress him, and prove she won't let him push her around. Just like you!" Sam leaves O'Neill and joins the other group. "We should finish hooking the Iris up."

"She's right Colonel, you as well as I want to see if the gate works." Andrea says smiling.

"Don't let me stop you." Ronson says as O'Neill walks up to them.

"She wouldn't trust me." O'Neill grins and turns to Carter. "Need any help."

"No, Andrea and I can do it together faster with out anyone else in the way." The two women turn and being their work on the gate.

O'Neill, Daniel, Teal'c and Ronson stand in security room. "You're kidding me. Right, you're telling me that. You have this thing that if you get two more stones twice the size, the Prometheus will even out rival Anubis?"

"According to the texts we found yes." Daniel replies to the Colonel's question.

Ronson looks at Daniel. "So what's the problem?"

O'Neill looks Ronson. "They don't know if it will actually work. They got teams of people working on it back Home."

"You don't know if it will work?" Ronson looks exasperated.

"It will work." Andrea and Carter say entering the room.

Ronson turns to look at the women. "The gate or this weapon you're talking about?"

"Both." they women reply together.

"The Tok'ra is almost certain now." Daniel says answering the Colonel's question.

Ronson looks relieved at Daniel's statement. "I have to say you've done a lot since we last met O'Neill"

Colonel looks at Ronson. "We have. Should we tell him about the course changes that need to be made?"

"Yes, I'll need to see the maps you have aboard Colonel?" Andrea says turning to Ronson her business face on.

"What kind of Course changes?" the Ronson asks looking at O'Neill scowling.

"Anubis has gain power in a one of the systems you'll travel through to get home." Andrea explains as they walk to the bridge.

Ronson looks at O'Neill. "When did this happen?"

"A week ago, if I had not listened to the transmissions the Asgard give out we would have been in deep." Cutting her self off and Andrea shuts up.

"Thanks for the warning, we're a tough ship but I don't think we could stand to up against him yet." Ronson leads them down the hall.

"We'd hate for that to happen." O'Neill says.

"The structure is wonderful, I'd seen pictures and diagrams but it's amazing." Daniel says to Ronson as they walk on to the bridge.

"Here's the map we're using." Ronson says pointing to the Map on the wall.

"Great. Sorry." Andrea says when she hits Sam with her arm when she pulls a small device out of her vest.

"Its ok thanks." Sam says looking at her. "What's that?"

"My personal star charts." Holding the device in her hand slowly turning it, it flashes in a yellow beam appears holding stars in their galactic order. Amazed everyone stares at the device and its projection.

"Man, can I get one of those."

"I can make several, its using it that is the problem." Holding the device Andrea moves her hand almost cupping it and then relaxes, and the chart changes. "This is where we are." Andrea points with her left pinky into the chart. "This is the system Anubis now controls." The grid changes again, when she slowly tips her fingers up.

"Can I see that?" Carter says looking at the device.

"Hold your hand still." Andrea carefully places the device in the Major's hand, then slides her hand under hers to help her control it.

"How do you change the images?" Sam asks eyes wide.

"To go the next page move you thumb in." Andrea instructs her, Sam follows and the grid changes again.

"This is the way you should go home Colonel." Sam looks at the grid and points to the map on the wall.

"Whose technology is that Dr. AJ?" Teal'c asks inspecting the device in Carter's hand.

Andrea looks at Teal'c. "It's a hologram device that I made. Works well I think."

"Indeed." Teal'c confirms.

"Another piece of new technology?" Ronson asks.

"From your point of view yes, this however is based on a very old device." Andrea says showing Sam how to move to different charts.

"I really want one of those." O'Neill says still looking at the device with amazement.

"I didn't know you had one of those." Daniel says looking at Andrea.

"You don't remember it do you? I used it when I found you." Andrea says looking at Daniel.

"You want to tell me why we can't go this way its much faster." Ronson turn around after consulting with one of his crew about the new course changes.

"The Asgard don't want us to go there. For some reason it's not safe." O'Neill says replying to Ronson.

"That maybe a good enough answer for you O'Neill but it isn't acceptable for me." Ronson says looking at him.

Turning from Sam, Andrea looks at Ronson. "How's this a race higher than us, has said not to go somewhere even when I'm in their ship!" Daniel looks at her then gives Jack the she's getting angry look. "Now, Ronson did you listen to your parents when you were young."

"What does that have to do with anything?" Ronson says challenging her.

"Everything, the Asgard take care of me, and protect me. It's for your own good to listen to them. They are like our parents." Andrea turns to O'Neill. "They won't be able to help if he gets into trouble. And I will not recommend a rescue mission if he does."

"What the hell are you talking about, recommending a rescue mission? What does her recommendation have anything to do with saving my butt?" Ronson looks at O'Neill angered at Dr. AJ's anger.

"She has lots of political support. To some her word is gold." O'Neill says to Ronson.

"Really, have you all lost your minds?" Ronson says to the group.

"No, I knew her before the program even existed." Daniel says grinning at his wife.

"It doesn't really matter. If you aren't going to listen to me, fine." Andrea says to Ronson. "I would like to go home; I say we dial earth first."

"Everything should work sir." Carter says.

"You're ready to go, you don't want to stay?" Daniel asks her.

"If you don't mind." Turning to Colonel O'Neill and then Daniel. "I have things to do at home Daniel."

"We should go try the gate then?" Ronson says pleased that Dr. Andrea Jackson would be leaving his ship.

"Let's go see they're handy work then." O'Neill agrees.

Daniel pulls Andrea aside, while Carter explains the systems again. "Are you ok?"

Andrea looking slightly tired smiles at her husband. "I'm fine, Just extremely tired."

"Why, is something wrong?" Daniel asks concerned.

"I had a vision last night, when I was on watch. I took something for a headache this afternoon, its working just making me a little sleepy." Andrea says touching his arms casually.

Daniel nods. "The vision is why you want to go back isn't it?"

"Yes, it never finished. I have a feeling it will come back with a vengeance. And I'm really not needed here. Colonel O'Neill can handle Ronson better than I."

"Indeed." Teal'c says listening to the two of them talk.

Andrea looks at Teal'c "Thank you for your input."

"I guess I'll see you when I get back." Daniel says.

"Yeah, I doubt were going anywhere." Andrea hugs Daniel and then turns to the other group.

"Here are some reports for General Hammond. I also included a supply list." Ronson says turning to Andrea.

"Okay, I'm sure they will send what you need right away." Andrea says to him over her anger. "Major Carter your welcome to keep the device, you can show Colonel O'Neill how it works."

"Give Hammond my best. We'll see you in a few days I hope." O'Neill says as Carter opens the new gate.

"You will. Stay out of trouble alright." Andrea punches in the iris code and leaves thought the gate. Daniel frowns as his wife leaves.

"Don't worry Daniel. She's at home; she should be worrying about you." Jack pats his shoulder.

"So Major Carter are you going to check the repairs to Hyperdrive?" Ronson asks looking at Sam.

"Of course she will. We'd like to hear some about what you've come into contact lately." O'Neill says to Ronson.

"Sure, how about over dinner." Ronson says to the group.
