Chapter Five

Jack felt more hesitation the closer he got to the conference room. Sam suggested as they walked that she should go in first and he should wait a few minutes before entering. She was trying to support him without making it look suspicious, which it would if she entered the room with him. She wanted to appear like she didn't know anything about what he was going to say.

Jack hadn't realized they had arrived at the conference room until he heard the door close behind Sam; he slowly took big breaths as he tried to calm down his nerves and apprehensions. He looked at his watch and saw it was a few minutes to the time he had set up with the general early that morning. He couldn't arrive on time or early, as he rarely did that and he didn't want the doctor to start worrying again for no reason. With that thought he figured out that he couldn't walk through the doors of the conference room for another 6 to 7 minutes.

To speed up the time he decided he try and eavesdrop on the conversion that was going on within the room in front of him, but he knew it was nearly impossible to hear through the doors and walls as the were sound proof. He was surprised then he could hear the conversions next door crystal clear. Confused he looked towards the door and realized it was slightly open, he saw object that Sam was messing around in her lab from that morning was slightly keeping the door open. He knew Sam knew him well, but he didn't think she knew him that well. Of course he knew she would guess he'd be bored out here waiting to get into the room, but he never thought she would let him purposely eavesdrop on their conversions. He reminded himself to tell Sam how much more he loved her at this very minute, later, as friends of course. He would never jeopardize her career or his by admitting how much he loved Sam as a man, but he wished he could every day.

He leaned closer to the door to make sure what he heard was actually what they were saying and not his imagination playing with him.

"So anyone know what is meeting is about?" The small voice of Janet broke the silence that had taken the over the conference room. Jack didn't hear anyone answer her question, so he assumed that the congregation of people were either shaking their heads or nodding them.

"Sam, why are you smirking?" Janet excitedly pointed out a minute later.

"No reason." Sam responded sweetly, to Jack her voice sound to innocent and sweet, 'Janet would defiantly know Sam's hiding something now.' Jack's mind screamed to himself.

"You know what this is all about don't you?" Daniel's voice added to the conversion.

"As if!" Was the sarcastic reply from Sam, which caused someone to start to chuckle, which Jack recognized immediately, it was Hannah.

"Now I know you know, why the colonel has called this meeting?" Janet screeched.

"I don't know!" Sam answered back, with the conviction she had behind the words Jack was nearly convinced as well that she didn't know anything about what he was going to say.

"Your name's Hannah right?" Daniel asked after a uncomfortable silence fell the room.

"Yes." Came a short and sweet reply.

"So why are you doing here? I know Jack knows you, but you have only just started at the SGC...."

"This meeting has nothing to do with the SGC Dr. Jackson and I think Hannah is here for moral support." The General voice boomed out.

'What the hell! Does he know?' Jack's mind scream once again, confused as to how the General could speak words he had just said, if he didn't know what was going to be said at the meeting. Jack looked down at his watch again, he saw enough time had passed, he needed to know how the General knew about him, because he was sure that he knew.

As he went towards the room he picked up the object that Sam had placed in between the door and placed it into his pocket and reminded himself to thank Sam later for placing it there. He fully opened the door and walked in.

"Hey all, how you're doing?" He asked casually.

"Colonel just before you start, I have just come off the phone with the President so I know what you're going to say. I have to admit I had one idea, I was far-gone past angry when the President started his conversion with, "there is a security breach at the base." When he explained the situation I calmed down, of course it surprised me when I realized that the security breach was like a authorized breach. He also said that by no means are you to be dismissed from the SGC, even though you may decide to chose a different path at the SGC." Hammond spoke, you could tell he still wasn't happy about the true identity of his favorite Colonel, but he was trying hard not to blow up at him.

"Really the President told you, well I have to say sir, I am partially glad about that. I have been wondering how to break the news to you." Jack replied. His statement caused a lot of confusion, to the people who didn't know what his was talking about, around the table.

"Okay, Am I the only one that's not confused?" Daniel asked the other people in the room, he noticed that only him, Janet and Teal'c seemed to be confused.

"Yeah, sorry I forgot that some of you didn't know. Okay story time, once upon a time there was a little boy and at the age of 8 his grandmother and father were killed in a car accident. Leaving him to be raised by his grandfather and mother. He was one of the most brightest ..."

"Jack not to be rude, but can't you just get to the point of this meeting. I don't really have time of be told a story!" Daniel rattled loudly.

"Daniel this story is the reason for this meeting and once the story has come into present day, you will understand why I have chosen to tell you in story format. So can you please shut up and let me get on with this meeting."

"Okay where was I... Right, He was one of the brightest boys around, the top of his class in school, he was moved up 3 grades when he turned 10. He had an interest in nearly very topic in the world. He specially loved ancient cultures, chemistry, physics and explosives."

"At the age of 15 his mother died and he woke up one day to his grandfathers bed empty and a letter on the kitchen table, stating he had been accepted to University of California. Next to the letter was an envelope full of money and details of a flat in LA that his grandfather had organized him to use. He graduated 2 years later with an advanced Chemistry and Physics major." He paused.

"After which he joined the army in the explosive unit, where he became an explosive expert and was sent to Vietnam to blow up land mines and deactivate bombs, etc."

"When he was 19 he went back to university to study for a masters degree in physics, with languages of modern and ancient cultures as a minor. After he finished university this time he traveled the world, studied cultures. Along the way he learnt a lot about archaeology and is classed as one of the world's most famous amateur archaeologists alive, he believed he may be better then most professional archaeologists."

"One day he saved this man called Peter Thornton from Murdoc, he is the most cold blooded killer ever known. Mr. Thornton was a DSX agent and for saving his live he had a lifelong friend, whom now and again asked him to help him with concern to a DSX project that he gladly helped with. After some time he became an unofficial DSX agent, but when Peter Thornton left the agency to open up his own company, he went with Mr. Thornton. The company Peter Thornton set up was a company called the Phoenix Foundation."

"See where I'm going with this Daniel?"

"Yeah." Daniel spoke. He knew he was talking about MacGyver and it seemed that Jack knew more about MacGyver then most people did, so he eagerly listen to what Jack was saying.

"Okay well after working years happily for Mr. Thornton at the Phoenix Foundation, this young guy about 20 years ago saved me from getting a lot of holes in me by crashing though a window on his motorbike. After he dropped me off at a friend's house, I invited him in for a drink. Next thing I can, opps sorry, this person could remember was the guy on the bike talking about his mother and how she gave him a locket that contained a picture of his father, to his surprise the guy on the bike was his Son."

"After helping Sam, that's the name of this person's son, they both ride out into the sunset. Him not renewing his contract with the Phoenix Foundation."

"I think that's as far as anyone knows about this person, right Daniel?"

"Yeah I think so, but you said the next thing..." Jack, who knew that Daniel was about to say I, interrupted Daniel. He had hoped no one had noticed the slip near the end of his story, obviously he was out of luck.

"Now this is what happens after they drove off into the sunset, one day just strolling to the local supermarket in the town they found themselves in. He was approached by one of his worst enemy's, named Murdoc; Murdoc had been trying to kill him since the time he had saved Mr. Thornton's life. Murdoc had threatened to hurt Sam as a smoke screen to hide his attempt to kill him again."

"He decided he could no longer play the game him and Murdoc had been playing for years, he discussed the situation with his son, whom suggested he contact one of the old friends that had a lot of connections. He phoned one of the senators he knew and pulled in a favor that the good old senator kept reminding he owned."

"The senator suggested to become the person most opposite to him, to someone who people would never guess him to become and near enough disappear from all existence, so he changed his name, changed career with the help from the senator. Now Daniel any ideas what profession he went into?" Jack asked, with a slight mock.

"Whom are you talking about?" Janet asked confused as to why Jack kept asking the questions to Daniel. Whom she could tell by the look on his face that he had figured what Jack was talking about and he wasn't too happy about it either, as Janet had noticed Daniel started to glare at Jack just before finishing the his last sentence.

"MacGyver." Daniel mumbled through clutched teeth. "Whom by the way happens to be Jack." His voice got louder towards the end of the sentence.

"WHAT?" Janet said, and surprisingly enough, so did Teal'c. Both were now looking at Jack with different expressions, Janet looked like Jack had just killed her puppy, deep hurt radiated from her. Jack guessed this was because she believed he couldn't trust her about his true self. Teal'c was looking at him with a blank expression like always, but Jack could see that Teal'c eyes were slightly mischievous. It reminded Jack of someone who had already known the facts, but never let on that he did and was glad that these facts were out in the open.

"Look guys I am really sorry about keeping from you who I really was, but it was to protect myself and my son. Now I've found out his gotten himself in trouble and my boss is looking for me, whom happens to be coming to the base later this week. His company is one of the companies chosen to come here and talk about security, so I had to come clean now before he came. His only coming himself because he knows I live in the area of Colorado Springs. Daniel please don't be mad, I know we're family, but I didn't know that until yesterday when you said my grandfather was your great uncle. I didn't mean to abuse your trust, you are still my best friend if you're willing to let me?" Jack spoke, he was desperate for Daniel to forgive him and he hoped Daniel would eventually, but he knew Daniel would be feeling he couldn't trust him and that this may be the thing that ruined their friendship.

"Just give me time Jack? Or is it MacGyver now?" Daniel asked weakly.

"My name's been changed legally to Jack O'Neill Daniel." He answered, he felt drained. His story had been an emotional roller coaster and all he wanted to do now was lay down.

"Look Jack I understand really why you kept your past a history, but I have to get use it the idea. I believe then I say that I am still your friend and you mine, but getting use to you being a gensuis is going to take some time, I had only just got use to you being one the dumbest person I know."

"Hey!" Jack shouted back at Daniel, which caused Daniel to laugh hard.

"Glad I cause you amusement Danny." He tried to scowl at Daniel, but it wasn't working he couldn't help the smile that started to spread towards his face. Realising that Daniel had accept who he was quite easily, he believe to easily but he took what was given to him.

"Right people now, I believe we have jobs to continue with." The general dismissed the room and walked back into his office.

"You and I have to have a chat later about how you made me think there was something wrong with you." Janet said as she the room.

"Looking forward to it doctor." Jack shouted to her retreating back.

"Glad you are finally let the rest of the tauri whom you really are O'Neill." Teal'c spoke monotonously.

"How did I know that I wasn't really convincing you that I was Dumber then I look?"

"As I have told you before that I believe you hind your true talents, I believe I was right."

"Well I have to go down the lab I have an experiment to finish." Sam spoke, really wanting the start the experiment she hadn't yet started, because her mind all day had been swimming with thoughts of Jack.

"Oh you mean this thing." Jack said as he pulled out the object she kept the door open with. "Thanks for leaning it to me." He finished, making her understand he was really grateful for placing it down on the floor, so he could hear what they were talking about.

"Thank you sir, can I have it back now?"

"Sure you can." He said as he passed it over to her and then skipped out of the room.

"You sure his okay, I haven't known Jack to skip before?" He heard Daniel say, causing him to laugh, now he knew their friendship would be okay and that the team had become unstable by him revealing whom he really was, which was one of his fears if they ever found out.
