They pointed their weapons towards the noise, barely breathing as a figure appeared through the trees.

Jack sighed in relief, lowering his weapon. "Jarvis! Where have you been?"

He almost collapsed onto the ground, shaking his head. "As soon as I saw the Jaffa I ran Sir, I'm sorry...I followed them to the castle, couldn't see any way of getting inside so I waited. I heard the alarms when you escaped, I've been searching for you since, and trying to avoid the Jaffa."

Jack looked up at Sam, who was still aiming her gun at Jarvis, a look of distrust on her face. "Carter?"

"Colonel?"

"You can put your gun down now, we're safe."

She shook her head. "Something's not right." She glanced at Jack. "Ignoring the fact I don't remember him," she turned her eyes back to him, "I can sense naquada and that means that there is a symbiote nearby, probably inside him."

Jack quickly zatted Jarvis. "That gives us time to get him back to base for checking out by Janet. What is the last thing you remember?"

"Teal'c was injured, General Hammond was trying to find a new recruit for us to take on a mission, and something about a beach."

Jack looked at her, worried, before moving to Jarvis. "He still has all his gear, we should be able to contact General Hammond."

She nodded, blinking slightly, before looking round in confusion. "Where are we?"

"Carter?"

"Colonel? What's going on? Where are Teal'c and Daniel?"

He looked at her in shock, scared at what was happening to her, concerned about how to get Jarvis' dead weight home, knowing that a Major with no memory would complicate things further.

Sam stepped back, holding her gun close to her. "What am I doing here? Who are you? Why can't I remember anything?"

She pointed her gun at him, moving her finger to shoot it as a familiar light surrounded them.

Jack jumped back as soon as they appeared on Thor's ship, relaxing slightly when he found Sam's gun had been removed.

She moved back quickly, hitting the wall and looking around, terrified, yet her posture told him she would fight if he tried anything.

He turned towards Thor, who was stood Next to Jarvis' still unconscious body.

"General Hammond called me when you did not return, he gave me the co-ordinates for this planet so I came as soon as possible."

"What happened to Cater?"

"I am unsure, her memory appears to have been blocked, for what reason or how I do not know."

Jack put his hands up slowly, moving towards her. "Carter? Do you recognise me?"

She shook her head, her eyes filling with tears. "No, I don't remember anything."

"Your name is Samantha Carter, Major Samantha Carter."

"I know, I know things, I just don't remember how, or who any of the names I remember are."

"I'm Jack."

She looked at him, thinking hard, "Jack...Jack O'Neill?" He nodded. "You're Colonel Jack O'Neill."

He nodded again, moving to pull her into a hug, relieved as she went willingly, relaxing into him.
