Chapter 6
The first thing Andrea does when Janet frees her form her medical Prison, is to search out General Hammond. Dressed in a smaller size fatigues because her old ones don't fit she walks up to the General's door and knocks. When allowed to enter she sees her husband sitting in front of the General's desk, turning to see who was at the door. Both the General and Daniel stand when she smiles and enters the room. "Hello Sir, Daniel." Turning and smiling at her husband. "As you can see Dr. Fraiser has said I can go home."
The general and Daniel both smile at her, but Daniel's smile is just a bit brighter. "That's great!"
"I want you to take as much time off as you need before coming back to do paper work." Hammond says sitting down.
Andrea walks farther into the room and stands next to Daniel. "Thank you sir, I may take you up on that offer."
Hammond leans back in his chair. "Is there something else I can help you with or were you looking for Dr. Jackson."
Looking at Daniel who is still standing, Andrea smiles. "Yes sir, I would like to speak with you about having Rya'c remain on earth for a while and I think Daniel can help me plead my case."
Daniel looks at her interested. "Have you spoken to Teal'c about this?"
Andrea shakes her head. "I haven't, but my reasoning is good, and I didn't want to get his hopes up just yet."
General Hammond too looks at her wondering what she has to say about allow Teal'c son to remain on earth. "Okay Doctor I'm listening. Why don't you have a seat?"
"Thank you sir I will." Andrea walks around to the other side of Daniel and sits in the second chair in front of the General's desk. "Sir, with the way the program is expanding eventual Rya'c will be a link between the SGC and the rebels. Keeping that in mind I believe that it would be prudent to at least give him an American education."
General Hammond looks at her surprised he hasn't already heard this from Teal'c. Daniel also looks at her, wondering how long she has been pondering having Rya'c on earth for training. "Actual sir, it's not such a bad idea. He understands Jaffa culture, learning ours could greatly improve communications with the rebels."
Andrea remains quiet for a moment as they look at her. "It's more than that. Rya'c deserves the chance to be a kid. He's been through a lot, since Teal'c joined the SGC."
Hammond shakes his head. "I agree. I will see what I can do. I can't make any promises. It might be wise for both you and Daniel to speak with Randall Fletcher about having Rya'c remain on Earth."
Andrea smiles and looks at Daniel. "Thank you sir, it means a lot to me that you agree." Andrea stands up.
The General and Daniel both stand up as well. "I expect your report by the end of the week. I want your to give me as much detail as possible, the pentagon wants to know what technology Anubis has."
Andréa walks backward to the door. "I will sir." Andrea leaves the room.
Andrea sits in her room on the bed alone, reading files when the phone rings. Picking up the phone she answers it. "Dr. Andrea Jackson."
Cassandra voice spoke from the other end. "Hi, Andi mom said you were home."
Andrea closes the file in front of her and lays it on the bed next to her. "Yes, I'm home and I'd love some company if you want to come over."
"I can. That's great I'll be right over." Andrea hears Cassie say before the phone clicks on the other end.
Andrea is licking chocolate pudding off a spoon when Cassie knocks on the back door. Tossing the spoon in the sink she walks around the breakfast bar and opening the back door to let Cassie in. "Come in."
Cassie opens the screen door and steps into the house and hugs Andrea tightly. "I was so afraid that you were dead. I'm so glad your back."
Andrea smiles as Cassie pulls away. "I'm glad I'm back too. Why don't you have a seat?" Andrea pulls out a bar stool.
"Mom said that you were pregnant. Daniel must so happy." Cassie smiles, sitting down next to Andrea.
Andrea sits down next to Cassie. "We both are. The reason I wanted you to come over is I have a job for you."
Cassandra looks at her interested. "What kind of job and do I get paid?"
"Yes you get paid." Andrea smiles standing up. "I need you to right a research paper on the atomic bombs we dropped on Japan."
Cassandra looks at her in shock. "A research paper, what kind of Job is that?"
Andrea says standing in front of the fridge. "An important one, that pays well."
"How much money are we talking here?" Cassie watches Andi pull the pudding out of the fridge.
"How about Five hundred dollars plus a hundred for expenses what you don't use you can keep." Andrea puts pudding in two bowls and hands one to Cassie.
"I'll do it!" Cassie says not wasting the opportunity.
"Good, I want everything. Medical reports, damage estimates, pictures everything." Andrea says before putting a spoonful of pudding in her mouth.
Daniel walks into the house followed by Jonas to see Cassie and Andrea laughing. "Hey, Cassie." Daniel walks over to Andrea and kisses her. "Everyone is coming over, and Jack said don't worry about anything he would take care of it."
"Ooooh, cake." Cassie says looking at Jonas.
"How are you doing Cassandra?" Jonas asks.
"Good, just took a job in fact." Cassie says.
"Really what kind of job?" Daniel asks.
Andrea turns to Daniel before Cassandra can speak. "Cassie's going to do some research for me."
Cassandra looks at Andrea wondering what Andi didn't want them to know. "Yeah she's paying me Six hundred dollars."
"That's a lot of money Andrea." Jonas says looking at her.
"Jonas is right." Daniel says pulling a bottle of water out of the fridge.
Andrea turns and looks at Daniel. "I know but I'm asking her to write a research paper with the information, and since it's not a school project I figured I would pay her top dollar for it. I'm asking for a lot of information."
The phone rings and Jonas picks it up. "Hello Jonas Quinn speaking." He listens for a minute. "Yes of course. It's General Hammond he wants to speak with you Andrea."
Taking the phone from Jonas, Andi speaks. "General?"
Daniel walks over to her. "What is it?"
Andrea looks at him, while listening to the General on the other end. "Yes sir. That's great! I'm glad. Yes thank you for letting me know. Yes you can tell them. Good bye sir."
Jonas and Cassie watch as Andrea smiles hanging up the phone. "Well!" They say in Unison.
Daniel smiles too. "He's allowed to stay!"
"Yes, Rya'c is allowed to stay. He's going to be really happy too." Andrea says grinning at everyone.
An hour later O'Neill walks into the house with Kawalsky. "Food is here!"
Daniel stands at the bottom of the stairs. "Bring it down here Jack."
Kawalsky follows O'Neill down the stairs to the Television room. "I hope there is plenty of beer!"
"Did Teal'c stay at the SGC?" Jonas asks from his seat on the couch.
"Yeah, he wanted to spend time with Rya'c since he and Bra'tac are leaving on Monday." Kawalsky says setting the pizza's on the coffee table.
"Actually Charlie that isn't true." Andi says sniffing the pizza.
Jack turns to her. "What does that mean?"
"Jack, Rya'c is going to be staying." Daniel says sitting next to Andrea.
Jack smiles. "You arranged for him to stay. What are you up to now?"
Janet and Sam come down the stairs carrying grocery bags. "Who's staying?" Sam asks.
"Rya'c, seems like Andrea was busy while she was under your care Doc." Jack says opening a beer.
Janet grins. "She was Colonel but at least she didn't push herself like you do."
"Sam what movie did you get?" Andi asks.
"Alien Invasion 3." Sam says walking to the VCR.
"Carter what is with these movies? Why not Godzilla or something?" O'Neill says wrinkling his forehead.
"Because we like them!" Andi says grinning.
Two hours later Andrea goes to the kitchen for the ice cream that Janet had put in the fridge. Standing in front of the skink warming the scooper, she looks out the window into the backyard. Seeing to shadows she looks away figuring it was the movie. Moving toward the fridge she hears the window crack and shatter. Andrea feels something hit her arm. In shock she grabs her arm and hits the floor.
Everyone could hear the shot and glass shattering from upstairs. "That was a window! Andi!" Daniel calls. Everyone runs to the stairs, but Jonas who ventures toward his room.
Jack is the first one into the kitchen, walking toward Andi when more shots are fired. "Hit the deck!" He drops low, and moves toward Andrea.
"Janet, Andrea is bleeding." Sam says moving toward the door.
Kawalsky knells next to Carter. "Someone really wants you dead!"
Janet and Daniel move quickly to Andi. "Are you alright?" Daniel asks.
"Flesh wound." Andrea says looking Daniel. "There is a gun in the left nightstand upstairs." Janet grabs the towel off the oven handle and applies it to Andi arm.
"All get it!" Kawalsky says going up the stairs.
"Be careful Charlie!" O'Neill says. "Is she going to be alright Doc?"
"She's right. It's just a flesh wound." Janet takes the cloths Daniel pulls out of a draw behind him.
Jonas comes half way up the stairs that lead to the Kitchen and lays two rifles and two boxes of bullets. "I think these will help."
Sam and Jack both take a rifle and begin loading them with bullets. Jack turns to Andrea. "Yours I assume." Jack says wrinkling his brow again.
"Sam can you open that cabinet behind you and pull out the first aid kit." Daniel leans forward to receive the kit.
Carter opens the cabinet and pulls out a large tackle box. "Is this it?"
"Yes." Daniel takes the box from her.
Kawalsky comes down the stairs holding a berretta. "I got it. Jack I took a look out the window upstairs. There are at least three of them."
Jack moves around to walk through the living room. "Jonas grab my coat and get my cell phone out. Toss it to Fraiser, Here!" Jack tosses him the rifle. "Kawalsky you go out the garage and use the dog door to angle your gun. Carter you and Jonas stay here." Kawalsky moves around through the living room and out to the garage.
Sam watches where O'Neill goes. "Colonel?"
"I'm going around the house, and out to my truck to grab my gun." Jack walks into the living room and out the front door staying low.
"Jonas hit the lights." Sam say know that the sink light would still be on so Janet could work with Andrea's wound.
Jonas turns off the lights. "Janet why don't you trade with me." Daniel says looking at his wife who is too quiet to his liking.
"Good Idea." Janet says trading the phone for the First Aide kit.
Daniel takes the phone and checks the Jack's phonebook. "Who do I call?"
Sam who had taken a position at the back door speaks. "General Hammond."
Janet who had opened up the first aide kit and works on Andrea's arm pealing of the dish cloths and pull out the alcohol from the kit. "This is going to burn." Janet pours the alcohol down Andrea's arm.
Andrea winces. "OUCH! Daniel call Alex after Hammond."
"Sorry, I had to do it. At least you don't need stitches." Janet says wrapping a bandage around Andrea's arm.
Daniel finds Hammond's number on the list and presses the send button. "General, it's Daniel; we seem to be under attack." Just as Daniel finishes his sentence Hammond here's several gun shots over the phone.
Jack walks slowly around to the back of the house. He had a full house and this idiot had to ruin everything by taking a shot at a pregnant woman. The whole thing has him on his toes. He walks to the bush at the edge of the house and crouches low. He can see the figure in the far right corner. He isn't sure who started it but more shots start. He takes the guy out in the leg. "Charlie!"
"I'm okay Jack. That S.O.B. must have seen me." Kawalsky says stepping out of the Garage. The back porch lights come on.
Sam opens the back door and comes out brandishing the rifle. "Is that everyone?"
Jonas steps out behind Carter. "General Hammond and some Sergeants will be here soon."
Sirens sound in the background. "Damn it the neighbors must have called the police."
"Mrs. White, She'll show up soon." Jonas groans.
"White?" Jack asks looking at Jonas.
"Oh yeah that's right you haven't met her yet have you Jack." Charlie says grinning.
"No why?" O'Neill asks walking toward one of the men and picking him up.
Sam grabbing another man looks at the Colonel. "She's like Mrs. Cravats from Bewitched."
Daniel comes out the back door as Carter, O'Neill, and Kawalsky drag the three men who tried to kill his wife toward the house. "Janet and Andi went upstairs. Alex is on his way. He said he would take care of the cops."
Jack ignores the man sneering at him. "I'm sure he will. Do you have anything to tie them up with?"
"Yes out in the garage." Daniel turns and walks to the garage. Stepping out again he holds up some rope. "Will this do Jack?"
"Yes." Jack says catching the rope. Taking on end he ties each guy up and then to the post of the over head roof. "Charlie why don't you and Jonas stay and watch our friends here. Daniel you and Carter come with me!" Jack says handing Kawalsky the rifle.
Jack stands next to Daniel in the VIP room looking at an indignant Andrea lying in the bed. O'Neill back from Daniel's house with his prisoners looks at his friends wife whose eyes show her anger. "The CSPD have the house secured for the evening. Tomorrow a security team and Alex Fletcher will be installing a state of the art system according to Fletcher."
Andrea stares holes into O'Neill's head. "You're letting him invade my home! I would have been fine staying there tonight."
Daniel looking from Jack to his wife shakes his head. "Jack's right."
"He's not right. Both of you are being extremely over protective. Janet said I was fine." Andrea says swinging her legs over the edge of the bed.
"Andrea, what are you doing?" Daniel asks, stepping forward.
"I'm going to go home. I'll sleep better there." Andrea begins to stand.
Daniel standing on Andrea's left side, Jack on the right gentle push Andrea back to a seating position on the bed. "You're staying here tonight. Tomorrow you can go home. That is an order by the way." Jack says looking at Andrea with a very serious and worried face.
"I'm going to go with Jack and watch him interrogate the prisoners. You should get some sleep. I'll be back later." Daniel says then turns to leave, O'Neill with him.
Andrea sitting on the edge looks at both of them. "Wait!"
Daniel and Jack both turn around. "What is it Andrea!"
Andrea looks up at both of them. "It was Senator Kinsey. He fears me and my alliance with the Asgard. He also knows he can't win the election if I'm alive, I don't understand why he's after me but he knows he can't win."
Jack looks at Andrea. "Alright I'll bite. How do you know all this? What is the catch?"
"Jack, she should rest." Daniel says looking at his wife who seems to have tired suddenly.
"It's alright Daniel." Andrea says smiling at her husband, hiding her sudden change in energy. "I know because I know politics, as for the catch let Randall Fletcher take care of Kinsey."
"So what do we do with the prisoners?" Jack asks noticing that Andrea looks tired.
"Interrogate them then give the information to Alex. I want Randall to get the public turn on Kinsey. Colonel you'll find that my way is much sweeter!" Andrea fights a yawn. "I'll explain more tomorrow."
"Sure, get some rest." Jack turns and walks out of the room and waits for Daniel.
Daniel walks over to the bed and helps Andrea get comfortable. "Did you have a vision?"
"Yes."
"What was it?" Daniel asks watching as Andrea closes her eyes.
"Jumbled images, a few short burst of conversations, nothing definitive but I understood what it meant."
"Are you okay?"
Andrea takes a deep breath. "I'll be okay, go please."
"Alright, I love Andrea." Daniel kisses Andrea's forehead. Andrea already asleep doesn't answer as Daniel leaves the room.
Andrea is reading a book while lying on the bed in the VIP room. Janet Fraiser enters the room smiling. "I see you're up early." Janet says walking toward Andrea.
Andrea looks up, puts her bookmark between the open pages and sets the book down on the bed. "Yes, I slept well last night."
"Are you busy now?" Janet asks standing next to Andrea.
Andrea looks at Janet. "No, I'm not unless they let me see our prisoners. And I doubt that." Andrea's tone turns to something of annoyance.
"I'd like to check your arm, and there is someone I'd like you to meet." Janet looks at Andrea still in a great mood.
"Meet Someone? Janet have you met a man?" Andrea says teasingly as she stands up off the bed.
Janet laughs. "Not recently."
Andrea smiles and walks with Janet out of the room. "That's a shame. Your so beautiful, Sam too. If I could tell you what I've seen and what was supposed to happen that didn't, you would understand why my marriage to Daniel is more than special."
Janet smiles brightly. "I can tell you two really love each other. Last night he was extremely angry after talking with the man that shot you."
"I noticed, he didn't sleep well last night. I told him, that I was alright and so was the baby. Kinsey can keep trying to kill me, but I have no intention of dying." Andrea says walking into the infirmary with Janet.
"Dr. Biggs, I'd like you to meet someone." Janet calls out to a man on the other side of the room.
The tall black man standing across the room turns and faces Janet smiling. "Of course Dr. Fraiser, I was just acquainting myself with the infirmary."
"Dr. Jon Biggs, I'd like you to meet Dr. Andrea Jackson. Andrea this is Dr. Biggs." Janet says smiling.
"Nice to meet you, Dr. Jackson." Dr Biggs puts his out to shake Andrea's hand.
"Nice to meet you as well, Call me Andrea, it's too confusing with two Dr. Jackson's." Andrea shakes his hand.
"I can see how that would be a problem." Dr. Biggs smiles at Andrea.
"Jon I brought Andrea here to look at her arm. I think you will be interested in what you see." Janet says escorting Andrea to a bed.
"He doesn't know does he?" Andrea whispers to Janet.
Janet shakes her head in confirmation. "Last night Andrea was shot in the arm." Janet assists Andrea in removing her jacket. "She's also approximately seven weeks pregnant."
"Congratulations, sorry to hear that you were shot though." Dr. Biggs says watching Janet unwrap the bandage from around Andrea's arm. Janet pulls off the bandage to show Andrea's arm has almost completely healed. "She was shot last Night?" Biggs questions Janet, looking at the wound.
"Since coming in contact with an object found here on Earth, Andrea has had some advanced healing ability. It looks fine now. I'd say she heals five days faster now."
"That's amazing does everyone here do that?" Dr. Biggs' asks.
Andrea laughs. "No, just me so far it would be nice if Jack did. Teal'c did when he was still carrying a larva."
"It wouldn't hurt." Janet says lightly.
"Thor, will be here today I assume. Can I go away for a few days? I'm not talking about anything stressful. Just spending a few days on an Asgard ship." Andrea says watching Janet mark her chart.
"Leaving us again so soon!" Janet says.
"The Asgard?" Dr. Biggs looks interested.
"Yes, tiny little grey men, quite nice, very advanced race actually." Andrea says honestly.
"Alright, this is what a light mission then?" Janet asks in her commanding tone.
"Yes, no guns, no hostiles, no stress, just me and the ship. The worse that could happen won't." Andrea beams.
"You know Dr. Fraiser I think she's hiding something." Dr. Biggs says watching Andrea flush.
"It's Asgard business. Of course I'm hiding something. I'll be fine. It's a Three day trip." Andrea laughs.
"It's alright. I'm just concerned that you'll get into a combat situation and injury yourself or the baby." Janet's voice sounding concerned.
"Good. No combat this time. You should know me by now. I never go into combat without someone to watch my back." Andrea looks at Janet's face.
"I need to go." Dr. Biggs says looking at both Janet and Andrea.
"Alright, nice to meet you." Andrea smiles.
"Alright Jon, I'll see you later." Janet smiles brightly at Dr. Biggs.
"Good-Bye!" Dr. Biggs leaves the Infirmary.
"That's good to hear. You can go. Cassandra is working hard on this project you have her on." Janet says helping Andrea off the gurney.
"That's good. What she is doing is really important. If I'm right she'll make some big changes for some SGC diplomatic relations." Andrea says stepping away from the bed.
"Ah, So what do you think of Dr. Biggs?" Janet asks still smiling.
"I like him and he's good for you!" Andrea says insinuating a relationship between Janet and Dr. Biggs.
"Oh that's not what I meant." Janet blushes.
"I know but it's what I see." Andrea looks serious.
"Really?"
"Yes." Andrea smiles at Jack and Daniel walking into the Infirmary.
"So Doc, is she okay?" Jack asks first.
"Perfect health." Janet says answering O'Neill's question.
"That's good to hear. Can I take her to dinner tonight then?" Daniel hugging Andrea.
"Yes! Sounds perfect. You know she's leaving right?" Janet says.
"What!" Jack says looking a little shocked.
"Oh I forgot to tell you Jack." Daniel says causally.
"Yeah, So where are you going?" Jack looks a little annoyed.
Andrea grins. "Asgard business. Sorry can't divulge what."
"Oh Damn!" Jack says frustrated.
"I'm hoping when I come back you'll be so happy you'll forget ever being mad at me!" Andrea says hugging Daniel tight.
"I see, you're bringing back technology then." Jack asks her looking more interested.
"Possibly."
"That was vague Andi." Daniel says putting in his two cents.
"I know but we're talking about Thor." Andrea looks at Daniel grinning.
"Exactly, why must he be so vague? I mean come on, they are an advanced race, he could at least be a little more like Carter." Jack says relaxing.
Janet Laughs. "If the Asgard were like Sam, you would need the knowledge of the Ancients back!"
Daniel laughs too. "She's right; Thor makes things pretty simple for you."
"Well I'm going home." Janet says still laughing.
"I wish I could, there are things that I could do at home that I can't here." Andrea says leering at Jack.
"Sorry, not until the house is secure." O'Neill crosses his arms.
"Alright I'll see you later!" Janet says turning away and walking to the back of the infirmary.
"Bye Doc." Jack says
"Bye Janet" Andrea and Daniel say together.
