A/N: Hey thanks for the reviews,
Once in the briefing room, Cyclops began to debrief SG-1 in more detail. "A few months ago, this school was attacked by a group of sentinels. Now, sentinels are machines that have a chip in their hard drive that makes them identify mutants and then their orders are to kill or capture the mutants."
Fox sat to the left of Major Carter and Jack was on the Major's right. He leaned back in his chair, and tapped Fox on the shoulder. She turned around and he asked, "Big, giant robots that hunt mutants right?" Fox smiled and nodded her head then turned to Cyclops and said, "Continue." He nodded and did just that.
"Anyway, when the sentinels came they took some mutants with them." Cyclops stood up, grabbed a remote and pointed at the wall behind him; hit a button and a picture of a woman came up. She was a red head and it was long and gorgeous. She had green eyes and wore a black form fitting out fit. "This is Phoenix. She is telepathic as well as telekinetic. She was the first one to be captured. My guess is they wanted all of the telepaths down before we could warn anyone." Cyclops hit another button and a picture of a man with six metal claws in front of his face came up. "This is Wolverine," Fox said as she stood and walked over to Cyclops. "He has a healing factor which makes him virtually unkillable."
"So this healing factor regenerates tissue extremely fast. So if he had a broken bone it would be healed with in a matter of hours. Correct?"
Daniel was about to tell Sam something about Wolverine that she needed to know but Fox got to it before he did.
"Yes, but he can't break any of his bones. His skeleton is laced with a very unique metal called adimantium. It is a metal that once it is cooled it can not be broken or shaped into any form. So if you put his claws, made of the same metal that his bones are laced with, with his fierce attitude, he's one mean mutant. He was the very last one to be captured. How he managed to get captured instead of me, I have no clue."
"Why do you say that?" Daniel asked.
"Are you not a great warrior?" Teal'c asked. "I am a 'warrior' if you will but Wolverine is much better than I and I say that because Wolverine is my father. The others that have been captured are Havok; he has a power similar to Cyclops's only it is in his hands. This is Polaris, Havok's girlfriend. She is the Mistress of magnetism. Nightcrawler is a teleporter. Shadowcat, able to move threw sold objects and Colossus. He is able to revert to a metal form that is indestructible."
Cyclops pointed the remote at the wall and the picture of Colossus was gone. He took his seat across from Fox's seat, whom moved as well to sit down. "So why tell us all of this?" Jack asked as he leaned back into his chair once again. "We believe, Colonel, that the sentinels are being controlled by the government to get rid of mutants or so we believe. If this is true then the sentinels may have taken our friends to a government facility to be studied and such. It would only be the three of us going in to the facility if you do not help and we are afraid that we will not triumph this time." Storm said as she leaned forward and placed both hands on the table.
"Fox what about your daughters," Sam asked, "Could they be of any help to you?" "Probably, yes but I am still trying to figure out if I want them to go up against the sentinels just yet. They are a deadly foe and my girls, one day, will have to face the sentinels, yes, for they are mutants but I don't know if I'm ready for that day to be today." Sam nodded her head. Then another question popped into her head. "Would they be willing to fight?" Fox thought for a moment and then replied, "I believe so, yes and they are defiantly able but enough about them for now." She turned to Cyclops and Storm who nodded their heads. Fox let out a big sigh and asked, "Will you help us?"
O'Neill looked from Carter, to Daniel to Teal'c and wasn't sure what to do. "I thought you said you didn't trust us?" Jack recalled to Fox. "Desperate times call for desperate measures." "If we were to help, and I'm not saying we will," O'Neill began sitting up in his chair. "Then what exactly would we do?"
Fox looked at Cyclops as if she were at a loss for words. "We aren't really sure yet." Cyclops said. "We generally don't figure out everyone's jobs until we are on the blackbird and ready to go. I haven't had time to think about it yet."
"Would you kind folks excuse us for a second? I need to have a word with my team." Teal'c, Daniel and Major Carter stood up and walked out of the room. "Don't do any of that telepathwatsmadosit. We'd like to talk in privet." Jack said as he turned to join his team out in the hall.
"Well kids," O'Neill said starting the conversation. "They seem to really want our help sir." Carter said glancing at Daniel. "You do realize Major that they don't even have a plan yet. We could be signing our death write for all we know!" O'Neill said in a low whisper. "Jack, these people need our help." Daniel replied in his sensitive tone that he always has.
"Yeah but weren't you listening?" Jack asked. "They fight mutant hunting robots that are as tall as God knows what and in case you haven't noticed we don't have any weapons! I might add that we can't call Hammond for more since there is no stargate."
"Colonel, with all due respect, I don't think we have much choice. I mean they did save us from Magneto earlier. I feel that we owe them. Who knows maybe they can help us get back home."
Jack nodded his head to Carter and then walked in front of Teal'c. "Teal'c, what do you think? Should we help these X-men people or should we leave them hanging?" Teal'c looked at Jack with a puzzled look. "I do not believe I understand your question O'Neill. What do you mean by 'leaving them hanging'?"
"It means to not help them. Should we help them or not Teal'c?" Jack asked becoming a little irritated with his friend. "I believe we should help them, O'Neill. Would they not do the same if our positions were switched?"
Everyone looked at Daniel. "What?" He asked. "Would the X-men help us if we were in there shoes and they in ours?" Sam asked. "Yeah I think so. I mean there's no guarantee but I'm pretty sure." "Fine!" Jack said as he led his team back into the briefing room. Jack stood at the end of the long table Sam stood on his right and Teal'c on his left and Daniel stood next to Sam. On the other end, Fox stood facing Jack with Cyclops on her right and Storm on her left.
"Have you come to a decision?" She asked in a very professional voice.
"We have." Colonel O'Neill said in the same tone as Fox.
"What is the verdict? Will you help us or not?" Storm asked.
"We will help you. Just tell us what to do."
