story. I am not good with knowledge of technology or some science
stuff, so I will be making it up; if it's wrong don't reprimand
me for it.
Jack was lounging in front of the TV, he had been from the minute he walked through the door. An outsider would of believed he was engrossed by the show that was on the TV. If you looked closer you could see he wasn't concentrating on the TV, but was having an internal debate with himself. He had been having this debate from the minute the General confirmed that 'The Phoenix Foundation' was one of the security companies coming to the base.
His blood ran cold when he thought Sam had guessed who he was, but that didn't compare to the coldness that ran through his veins at the General's words. He was ready to face the past, but he wanted to face his past at his own pace, fate it may seem was against him yet again.
Jack was brought out of his internal debate by a gentle knock at the door, he hoped it was Sam, he could really talk to someone about this issue.
"Coming!" He shouted at the direction of the door, letting whom ever was at the door know he was in, as the only light in his house was coming from the TV.
He approached the door and quickly opened it. At the threshold stood a girl in her late twenties going on thirty, crying her eyes out. He recognised her immediately.
"Hannah!" He uttered, Hannah was his son's girlfriend.
"Ja...c....k!" She sobbed.
He pulled her into his arms and she broke down more then before. Dread flooded through his body, as the only thing that could put Hannah in this state was if something had happen to Sam, his son. He mumbled smoothing words in her ear, as he gently rocked and walked her over to the couch, turning on the lights as he went.
Sam had just finished dinner and was getting ready to read one of her new books. She had always wanted to read after she heard MacGyver had wrote it, the book was on Greek Mythology, a subject she heard often when she was younger, was one of MacGyver's passion. As it was not Quantum Physics or other relative subjects, she didn't see the point of reading the book. She hadn't even thought about reading history books before joining the SGC, but once a month she would order one history book, so she could understand Daniel more. It had taken her five years to find this book, and she finally found it on Ebay and she had to pay over $100, which she hoped the book was worth the money.
She sat down on the couch and opened the book, she eyes flicked the photograph of MacGyver. Her eyes widen at the photograph, she was shocked the person that was staring back at her was her CO, Colonel Jack O'Neill. She tried believing that Jack was really MacGyver, but she just couldn't get her mind round the fact that Jack was totally different to MacGyver. But she couldn't denial what she saw and her logically brain that Jack was MacGyver, and had been trying to tell her since the night at the lake.
Shutting the book with a snap, she jump out of her seat and run around the apartment looking for her shoes, she had to talk to Jack. Just as she was about to go out of the door she paused to pick up the book, she knew he would know, she knew who he saw the minute she showed him the book, and that was the way she was intending to tell him she knew.
"Are you sure?" Jack asked Hannah.
"Positive, Sam said Pete was desperate for a good photographer after their last one suddenly died on them." Hannah uttered, still a little distorted.
"Died suddenly how?" He asked, he was a little suspicious about that situation.
"Pete told Sam, he was ill and the illness finally won." She answered. She saw the look of disbelieving on Jack face, and added. "Of course I wasn't sure if he had been told the truth, but you know Sam. He jumps into situation's to help people, without getting the facts first."
"I am going to kill Pete, when I see him. If one hair on Sa...." Jack stopped talking by a knock on the door.
"What now?" Jack muttered angrily. This caused Hannah to chuckled.
"I try and get rid of them, then I will get the spare room ready for you, okay." Jack asked tentatively.
"That sounds great, I could use some rest."
He walked away to the door, quickly opened it. There he saw the one person any other day he wouldn't turn away, but with Hannah here and her not knowing who he was. It would be hard for him to explain Hannah and his son, without her knowing him.
"Hi! You were the last person I expected to see this time of night." He said with a big grin, but then thought about what he had just said. "Actually your the second from last person I expected to see at my door this time of night." He quickly added.
"Oh you have company!" Sam stated quickly, assuming he corrected himself because the last person he expected to see was actually here.
"Yes, I'm sorry Sam, we can talk tomorrow at work, okay." He stated.
"Umm, actually that's going to be hard. What I wanted to talk about, you don't want to happen at the base." She said uneasy. Jack got concerned.
"You okay? What's happen? Can I help?" He asked quickly. This caused Sam to laugh.
"Oh god no Jack, I'm sorry I lead you to believe that something was wrong with me. No I wanted to talk to you about this book!" She spoke as she pulled out his book, and opened the front page. All expressions fell off Jack's face when he saw the book. With about a minute of silence Sam was about to turn round and go home, when she saw him start to smile.
"Why don't you come in? I like you to meet someone!" He pronounced, as he opened the door wider for her to walk through.
They walked through into his living room, and Hannah stood up when she saw Jack had company. Sam stopped suddenly, she was shocked to see another women in Jack's home.
"Sam, what you are doing at the door's threshold, get over here." Jack uttered teasingly. She complied, and walked further into the room.
"Now let's get the introductions on the way, Hannah I like you to meet Major Samantha Carter the best 2IC I have ever had, Sam I like you to meet Hannah Walters hopefully my future daughter in law." Jack spoke formally, Sam he noticed blushed when he called her the best 2IC in command he had ever had, and surprised when he introduce Hannah as his future daughter in law.
Hannah smiled, as she was finally meeting the famous Samantha Carter that Jack talked non-stop about when ever he phone her Sam. She approached Sam and stuck out his hand.
"This nice to meet you Major Carter."
"You too Hannah, but sorry if I seem surprised on meeting you. I didn't know Jack had a living son. Oh and call me Sam."
"Jack doesn't have a living son, MacGyver does." Hannah uttered, she had heard their conversation they had at the door, and saw the book Sam handled to Jack. So she assumed Sam knew about Jack being MacGyver.
"Really? Wow, I didn't even know MacGyver had a son. Actually I'm still trying to get it round my head that the dumb loveable Colonel we all know is the famous MacGyver whom was once one of my idols when I was younger."
"I was!" Jack answered in surprise, he never heard Sam call him one of her idols when she was younger before.
"Yes sir, so any ideas at how you are going to trick the SGC?" She asked Jack, fully ready to part take in the teasing Jack had suggested the night before, now that she knew who he was.
"Actually there a problem there, The Phoenix Foundation are one of the companies been selected to talk about security systems. I know Pete, and he knows I'm in the area of Colorado Springs, once he knows the base is in Colorado Springs. He won't tell someone to come in his stead, he will come himself and probably with Steven. I won't be able to keep who I am for everyone once they have entered the base. I will have to tell the General, Daniel, and Teal'c tomorrow."
"Thank god, because I wasn't sure how I could keep from Daniel that you were MacGyver!" Sam uttered in relief.
"Yeah, can you also image how mad his going to be as well!" Jack answered dully.
"Ah, I see your hesitation of telling him." She answered, which caused Jack the laugh.
"Yeah, do you know I didn't even realise I was related to Daniel until early today, when he called my grandfather, great uncle Harry. God I thought I saw going to have a heart attack right in front of you all. God, tomorrow is going to be a long day. With Daniel not talking to me after we tell them, General Hammond lecturing about security, about how I got into a high position within the military without going though basic training and the junior ranks." Jack sighed, feeling every bit his age.
"Actually how did you become into a high position within the military?" Sam answered, quite curious as to how the alias Jack O'Neill had went into the military straight from College, when he actually only joined 15 years ago, after he decided to stop being MacGyver. The background check that he made for Jack O'Neill, was tight and all checked out.
"I know a lot of people in high places, and the most powerful person I know is the person who said, 'how about hiding out in the military?' and his name back even was Senator Haines, who now we all love to call, Mr President. I did my own background cover, and most of all the references in my record are people I have saved or helped, so they agreed to keep my cover." Jack spoke with slight laughter in his voice. "But it's getting to hard to keep up, after all I am getting on in age, nearly mid fifties."
"Mid fifties, I thought you were in your late forties?" Sam said surprised.
"All part of my cover, I'm actually 54 years old. Sometimes I do feel it as well."
"Who are you hiding from?" Sam question again.
"Mardoc, his an emery of mine. I was getting sick and tried of staying clear of him. Last time I went against him, he said he will hurt Sam. That was the last screw, so I disappeared." He answered.
"Sam?" Sam asked
"My son, his name actually Sean, but he likes to be called Sam. It's his initials, Sean A Malloy."
"What's the A stand for?"
"That information is top secret, and believe me you will never find out!" Jack answered, he confused Sam more.
"Sean Middle name is the same as MacGyver's first name, that's why it's top secret. He hates his name!" Hannah stated laughing at the way Jack was glaring at her. Sam joined in the laughter, and Jack pouted like a three year old.
The room fell silent for a while, Jack looked at the clock. He took a big sigh and stood.
"Sam, I have ask you to leave now, as it's getting late. Hannah's had a long day, and requires to rest." Jack uttered, tiredness laced his voice.
"I understand, so I see you tomorrow. Also I like to get home, and read a bit of your book." She spoke.
"You do that I liked to know what you think about the book! Oh by the way your book, good so far. You make astrophysics easy to understand."
"Thank you, Jack ... um MacGyver" Sam answered, blushing slightly from the compliment.
"Jack please Sam, I changed my name legally to Jack O'Neill, officially MacGyver no longer exists."
"Okay, see you tomorrow." She said, as she walked to the door, with Jack not far behind.
Jack watched her walked down to her car, and slowing reversed back, he waved as she was about to drive away, she returned the gesture then she was gone. Sighing Jack closed the door, and went back to the living room.
"You're in love with her!" Hannah stated.
"How the hell does everyone know that, do I have it stamped on my forehead, 'Hey everyone look at me I'm totally and absolutely in love with my 2IC'" He answered.
"Yeah near enough! Plus you don't ever stop talking about her when you phone Sam." Hannah spoke laughingly to his response. She Assumed others have realised he loved Samantha Carter from the way he reacted to her statement.
"Come one you, To bed!" He pouted. This caused Hannah to laugh more.
Jack was at the base earlier in the morning, he was trying to get Hannah full level clearance. He knew Hannah would be a great asset to the base once she started working there, but he had to convince the General. He wasn't sure the General would give it to her, because of recent events. He had to get the clearance before he told the rest of Sg-1, the General, and Janet, about who he really was. He assumed after he told them he wouldn't be able to, as him, himself was a security breech within the Air Force.
He walked towards the General's office, knowing that the General liked to be in early to catch up on the previous evening events since he left the night before. He knocked sternly on the General office door, once the General allowed access, he walked through the door.
"Jack? What a pleasant surprise to see you in at this time in the morning!" General Hammond uttered surprised.
"Well sir, I have favour to ask, and I wish to set up a meeting later today that will include SG-1, the good doctor, and yourself." Hammond hand gestured for jack to continue.
"Sir first the favour, I have a friend that is in need of a job, and she's a genius, she would make a great asset to the base. Would you concern hiring her?" Jack asked.
"What's her speciality?" Hammond asked. As the SGC did have a few scientific position open on the base, and was finding it very hard to get the position filled.
"Many fields sir, she a whiz on the computer, her PhD is Microbiology, with a minor in Advanced physics, she speaks 10 languages, and has been known to take an interest in archaeology digs." Jack answered, and thought 'uh, sounds a little bit like me, weird.'
"Can you vouch for her?"
"Yes sir, if you want to give a quick interview, she can be there in 30 minutes. She really needs a job sir!" Jack answered. General Hammond studied Jack, to him it was obvious Jack trusted this friend, and Jack never suggested someone for a job, especially a scientific one.
"Okay Colonel, if she can be here in 30 minutes, I talk to her and consider employing her."
"Thank you General, now to the meeting a like to set up, are you free around 2pm?" Jack asked.
"Yes, I believe so, what's this meeting about?"
"Um, hard to explain, it would be better to wait until the meeting sir!"
"Okay Colonel I trust you."
"Thank you for saying that General!" Jack said as he stood up.
"Colonel before you leave, what's your friends name?"
"Oh sorry, totally slipped my mind, her name is Hannah Walters, sir."
"Okay Colonel Dismissed."
"Thank you General."
Jack stood by the front gates of the mountains complex waiting for Hannah's taxi to drop her off, and for him to sign her in. He held a letter for the gate guard from General Hammond explaining to him that Hannah was coming for an interview, and she would need an Access all Areas pass. He glanced down at his watch, it was the fifth time he had looked at it in the pass ten minutes. The taxi driver in his opinion was pushing the limit, Hannah had phoned 10 minutes after he phones for her to get at the base in 30 minutes for the interview. She stressed that the taxi hadn't yet arrived. Soon it would approach the 30 minutes deadline to get Hannah on the base, so she could meet General Hammond.
Mire seconds after looking at his watch a taxi squealed around the corner at a very fast speed. Jack saw Hannah throw a few notes across the driver and quickly got out of the taxi, then slummed the door shut.
"God damn Taxi, you know next time I am driving down to see you. Never again am I using Taxi's in Colorado Springs." She angrily uttered to Jack, whom had started to sign her into the base. The guard indicated where she had to sign, and then was let into the base.
"Hannah you have to calm down okay! If you are still this mad when meeting the General it will look bad for me!" Jack calmly stated. Hannah let out a huge sigh and looked at Jack.
"Sorry, but I hate being late, and that taxi driver nearly made me late. I be okay in a few minutes."
"Okay!"
After the long elevator ride down to the lower levels of the mountain where the General office was Hannah had finally managed to calm down, and was laughing along with Jack. The elevator doors down, and Sam was standing in front of them with a surprise look on her face.
"Hannah? What you doing there?" Sam asked surprised and confused at the same time.
"Jack had manage to get me an interview with the General." Hannah answered, her nerves was starting to show in her voice, and both Jack and Sam heard it.
"Don't worry about the General his a big pussy cat, I'm sure you will do fine." Sam reassured Hannah.
"Jack, Daniel and Teal'c are waiting in the commissary for morning breakfast, shall I tell them you will be late?" Sam asked.
"Yeah, but I won't be that late. I'll take Hannah to the general office, after I have dropped her off I'll be along. Oh I've set up a meeting for SG-1, the doctor, and the General at 2pm."
"Well see you soon, Hannah. You should get one of the SF personnel to show you to the commissary after the interview and join us." Sam said cheerfully.
"I like that! I can't wait to meet Daniel and Teal'c. Jack talks nothing about the rest of SG-1 when he phones."
"Well good luck again, and I see you soon sir." Sam smiled kindly and walked towards the commissary. Jack and Hannah walked her walked until she was out of sight.
"I really like her, she good for you. Did I ever say, I didn't really like Sara?"
"No you didn't, because you knew I won't hear anything bad said about her, and that still applies now even though we are divorced."
"I know, sorry."
"Don't worry about it!"
Silence fell over their conversation, Hannah got more anxious the nearly they got to the General's door. Jack saw her nervousness, and smiled.
"Hannah, don't worry about it. We have a lot of scientific positions to fill, we have been having a hard time filling them. As I have recommended you, you have a very high chance of getting a position." Jack reassured her. Jack stopped suddenly and Hannah saw they were standing outside the general's office.
"Well I leave you here, luck you and see you after." Jack expressed, then quickly knocked on the door. He was gone before the general said come in. Hannah swallowed the lump that had formed it self in her throat and slowly opened the door.
"You must be Hannah Walters, I'm George Hammond, please take a seat." The general spoke kindly, noticing her uneasiness. Hannah smiled in response, which calmed her down more.
"Jack!" Daniel shouted across the commissary when he saw Jack walk through the door. Jack jumped slightly a little startled by Daniel shouting as loud as he did.
"You do know I have no trouble seeing where you are sitting right Daniel. Oh and I am not deaf, I don't think the people in Europe heard you clearly enough, maybe you should shout again!" Jack replied sarcastically, as he walked over the table the rest of SG-1. Laughter filled the air from Sam and Janet, who was also sitting at the table.
"Sorry!" He mucky said, "But I heard you have organised a meeting later with us, Janet and the general. I was wondering what it's about?"
Jack head shot towards Sam.
"You told them!" He wined.
"Yes, but I didn't give them any details!"
"But I wanted to tell them." He pouted.
"Sorry sir!" Sam apologised, while trying not to laugh at him, acting like a child.
"No Danny, you can't know any details or hints to that matter, only two people know what it's about and they are sworn to secretly." He dramatically spoke.
"Jack! Hannah!" Sam said, before Daniel could speak. Jack looked behind him to where Sam was gesturing to.
"God that was quick I've just left her." Jack muttered to Sam. He stood up so Hannah could see where they were sitting.
Hannah noticed jack stand up confusion written on his features, she couldn't help but let out a laugh. She walked over smiling.
"That didn't take that long, have you already put yourself into the general bad graces."
"God no, after your talk this morning he was convinced about hiring me, so then I got there all he wanted to know is, which departments would I rather work in."
"So you got the job without an interview?" Sam asked, as Hannah started to sit down next to her. "Do you know which department you're be working in?"
"Yes, and I'm not sure, I said put me anywhere that needs me the most, after I am trai....."
"Excuse me, but an introduced would be nice." Daniel interrupted.
"sorry Danny, Hannah meet Daniel Jackson, Janet Fraser and Teal'c. Danny and Teal'c are part of my team, Janet is the vampire of the group, oh sorry Janet mistaken you for someone else then, Janet the chief Medical Officer. Guys meet Hannah Walters a friend of the families future daughter in law." Daniel and Sam were laughing at Jacks description of Janet.
"Sorry, but did you just say Hannah Walters?" Janet spoke dumbfounded.
"Yes!" Hannah quickly answered.
"As in the best Biochemist in the world!"
"Yes!" Hannah hesitantly spoke.
"But you're so young!" Janet blunted.
"I'm nearly thirty, Dr Fraser."
"Really!" Everybody around table said at the same time astounded, except for Jack. She looked more like she had just finished university.
"So, when do you start?" Jack asked, then put some Jell-O in his mouth.
Jack marched into Sam lab just before the meeting he had organised earlier would start, Sam turned to looked at him.
"I can't do this, I can't just explained. Then sit and watch Daniel and Teal'c hate me and never trusting me again."
"Jack, ma and Hannah will be for support. Like you said last night, you have to tell them, before they found out when that person from The Phoenix Foundation, comes and tours the base. You have nothing to worry about, and they won't hate you, I found out who you really are do I hate you?" Sam asked.
"No!" Jack Muttered.
"Come on then they'll be waiting." Sam said. She stood, grabbed him by the elbow and dragged him out of her lab. She made sure she locked the door before escorting him to the conference room.
