CH2: WHEN are you from?
"I'm what?!" Daniel exclaimed. He crossed his arms waiting for the answer.
Nat could barely get any words out, and Carter could tell it was from confusion.
"Lieutenant Manslow, what year is it?" carter asked. Nat looked at her funny.
"What year is it? It's 2031." Nat replied. Jack waved his hands in the air.
"Will someone PLEASE tell me what is going on! Carter!" Jack looked at Sam. Sam thought about it for a second then scratched her head. "Well sir, the only thin I can think of at the moment is that if lieutenant is really from 2031 then there must have been a solar flare on the surface of the sun as she stepped through the gate, which caused her to travel back to 2002." Carter replied.
Jack looked at her funny. "So what you're saying is she's from the future?" He asked. Sam nodded. Jack smiled. "So kiddo! Tell me. Are we gonna be famous in the future?" Nat was about to speak, when Teal'c butt in.
"Colonel O'Neill. When we were sent to your 1969, you said that we should refrain from divulging any information regarding the future, our present time, so that we would not change the course of the future," Teal'c commented. Jack huffed.
"So how are we meant to go about this then, Major?" Hammond asked carter. Nat felt non-existent.
"Sirs. Technically I'm not even born yet, and I've already been on missions more than 100 times. So is there any way I could stay here on the base? Put me under Professor Jackson's care. He already knows me.. Will know me.. Sir," Nat spoke up. General Hammond sighed.
"Well Frankly I don't know what to do with you lieutenant. We have no idea how to predict solar flares so as you may know, it may be impossible to even consider sending you back to your timeline. I can't let you off this base as you obviously know a lot about this stargate program. I'll have to keep you confined on the base until we can figure out what to do with you. Dr Jackson, Teal'c. Would you please escort the lieutenant to the VIP room for the time being. Colonel, Major, I would like to talk to you two in my office now." Hammond ordered. Daniel led Nat out of the gateroom, followed by Teal'c.
"So you're really Professor Jackson?" Nat asked as they walked down the grey halls. Daniel nodded. "It's just Doctor Jackson. But since you said we're already friends, or will be, just call me Daniel," Daniel smiled. "Nat, if you don't mind me asking, I noticed that you weren't surprised to see Teal'c here. I gotta say most new recruits are fascinated slash scares of him," Dan commented. Teal'c was interested to hear her answer.
"Well considering Teal'c said that I shouldn't really be divulging anything from the future, all I can probably say is I met him many times at Jack's.. I mean Colonel O'Neill's barbeques." Nat replied. Daniel and Teal'c both looked at each other with confused expressions on their faces.
"Yes, well I really must talk to Sam and Jack about letting you tell us more about the future. Even if it's just about what the four of us are doing in 2031!" Dan smiled. He began to get more curious about how well this unexpected visitor knew about himself and the rest of Sg1. He'd be writing about her in his diary tonight.
The trio reached the VIP room and Daniel opened the door, gesturing for Nat to go in. "Here we are. There's going to be a guard at your door, so just holler if you need anything okay?" Daniel asked. Nat nodded and Daniel closed the door, leaving Nat alone in the room.
Nat walked to the bed and threw her brown leather bag onto it. The bag opened on impact and two large journals flew out of the bag. Nat sat on the bed and looked at the two books. Professor Jackson had handed her the bag as he had gone to the gate room to dial the alpha site. Technically the stuff in the journal was written by the FUTURE professor Jackson. It wouldn't matter if she read them. After all. they were about things that probably haven't happened yet! Nat opened the Journal to a random page:
June 28th 2002 We traveled to the Tok'ra base on P3-x473. Sam tried to convince Martouf that the Tok'ra would probably have a better chance at survival if they had numerous bases on different planets. Martouf said he'd talk to the council about Sam's idea, but he thinks that they probably wont because the Tok'ra want to be as secretive as possible, and will have a higher chance of being found if they have numerous bases. Teal'c (being an ex-first prime) thinks that numerous bases would be wise because the Tok'ra do have a habit of their one and only base being found and destroyed.
(Yet again) Martouf asked Sam to go for a walk with him on the surface while we stayed inside the caves. Jack kept voicing out how much he distrusts the Gould Tok'ra. Personally I think Jack's a bit jealous that Sam and Martouf might actually be a good couple. Well, as good as two people millions of light years apart can be. Teal'c agrees with me.
Nat yawned as flicked the crusty pages of the large journal. Professor Jackson had told her all about the 'escapades of Sam and Jack.' She met Professor Jackson in her senior years of SG high school. The high school was created specifically for the training of the next generation of troops for the Stargate program. Nat was a top student in the general sciences. In SG college, she trained as a soldier while majoring in psychology and human resources. Being only 25, she was extremely young to be put into an exploration team in the SGC program, let alone being put into SG-1; the no.1 team in the SGC. Every troop learned of the stories and triumphs of the original SG-1. But it was professor Jackson, with whom she remained friends with, who told her all the best stories. The two of them would spend hours watching ancient Egyptian shows that were showing old ancient mythology and how it was adopted and influenced by the Gould. (now that the world knew about the Stargate.)
Nat lay on the double bed and read random pages in Daniel's journal.
[Hammond's office]
"So Sir, any ideas on what we should do with this lieutenant?" Jack asked. Hammond shook his bald head as he sat at his desk. Carter stepped in.
"Sir, I hate to point out the obvious, we cant send her back and if we do keep her around in the SGC program, it is going to be nearly impossible to prevent changing future that she came from. Eventually she'll purposely or accidentally tell us what future events will be and if she does, we have to keep reminding ourselves that the events she'd experienced might never happen because we'll have inadvertedly changed the future." Carter explained. Jack looked at her funny.
"You really gotta lay off the sugar Major," Jack commented. Hammond huffed. Carter did have a point. Carter looked at Jack in a you're-not-taking-me- seriously-enough look.
"Sirs, the lieutenant talked about SGC schools, journals that the future Daniel gave her and the gould attacking. Not to mention the technological advances she may know about. AND other alien races we could be allied with! Sir, her mere presence here is going to change the course of the future," Carter added.
Jack pulled his hand out of his pocket and held it up in a 'stop' maneuver. "Carter. Stop. We get you." Jack turned to Hammond. "So sir, what do *you* think?
"Well I'll call the president and see what he thinks. I'm going to give him my recommendation that she should remain on the base for the time being because she is a security risk."
Just as Jack and Sam were exiting the room, Daniel and Teal'c entered. "Er guys, she knows a lot more about us than you know. She mentioned having spoken to the future Teal'c at one of Jack's future barbeques," Daniel explained.
"Oh Crud!" Jack exclaimed. "So she knows more about us than we know about her. I hate when that happens!"
"I'm what?!" Daniel exclaimed. He crossed his arms waiting for the answer.
