"Uh Rach? Where are we?" Derrick asked looking around the cell they were in.

"I'm not sure," she answered. She was fairly certain it wasn't an Asguard ship, but was at a loss to who their captors might be.

Clanging footsteps could be heard from around the corner, and seemed to be getting closer. The sound alone was frightening enough to make all three take an involuntary step back. Four men dressed in armor and bearing odd symbols on their foreheads approached the metal bars of the cell. One punched a code into the keypad beside the entrance and two of them entered once the bars slid open.

"You will be presented to you're god" one spoke. Rachel raised an eyebrow and her friends shared a confused look over her head.

"No thanks" she said crossing her arms over her chest defiantly. The man that had spoken stepped forward and backhanded her across the face, sending her crashing into Evan and Derrick.

"Hey!" Evan lunged at the man, but was easily pushed to the ground achieving only in getting a metal boot in the gut. He coughed and sputtered before standing up, cradling his midsection.

"You will come at once" was the gruff order. All three were pushed from the cell and led down a series of winding hallways before finally reaching an ornately decorated, dimly lit, chamber. The dull lighting made the golden walls glow eerily.

"What the hell?" Evan muttered, gazing around the room curiously. The man behind him forced him to his knees and promptly tied his hands together with a thin wire. Rachel and Derrick were soon forced to follow suit.

"Why are we here?" Rachel asked glancing up at the huge man to her left. His intense gaze flickered down at her for a moment, before moving back to stare at the empty throne before them.

"Not one for small talk huh?" she asked ignoring her friends' looks of disbelief at her.

"Silence!" The man beside her boomed, grabbing a fistful of her hair. She momentarily hoped he wasn't ripping the stitches in her head from her last kidnapping. My last kidnapping, she thought sourly.

"Okay!" she yelped as he jerked her by her hair once more before letting go. She wished she had use of her hands to check if all her hair was still attached to her head.

"Where are we?" Derrick whispered beside her, drawing her from her thoughts.

"On a spaceship?" she whispered back, leaning towards him as she did so. He raised his eyebrows and she saw Evan lean forward slightly giving her a questioning look.

"A spaceship - as in a ship… up in space? Like aliens?" Derrick asked. He was far easier to convince of things than Evan ever was.

"I think so,"

"Sweet!" Derrick grinned.

"No not sweet, dummy." Evan elbowed the boy as best he could and fixed him with a glare. "We're tied up, and were in a cell… I don't think we're here cause they want to enjoy our sunny personalities".

"Oh" the guard standing behind Derrick kneed the boy in the back.

"Silence." Opting to listen to the man, Rachel and her friends stared forward waiting for the 'god' to arrive. A man dressed like the others in the room entered and stood next to the throne like chair. Rachel noticed that the symbol on his forehead was actually gold and not just a tattoo like on the others. Is he this god-guy? She wondered.

"Attention," he called to all in the room, but more specifically to the three teenagers on their knees before him. All eyes turned to him. "Bow before your god- "

"O'Neill" Jack picked up his office phone. He was sitting at his desk playing solitaire on the computer.

"Jack!"

"Daniel? What's wrong?" he frowned.

"Rachel and her friends disappeared" Daniel said trying not to mention aliens over a non-secure line.

"Where to?"

"Up" Daniel said cryptically.

"As in our gray friend kind of up?" Jack turned off his game.

"Yeah but different" Daniel sighed. He was driving as fast as he could without risking getting a ticket, but it still wasn't fast enough.

"Different…?" Jack drawled out. He was getting very confused.

Daniel thought for a moment on how to describe the flash that had taken the kids. It wasn't exactly like Asgaurd technology, but it was similar.

"Yeah uh…like Osiris in my bedroom different." Daniel stated, thinking that if anyone was listening in on the conversation, that they'd be completely lost.

"Ah. Are you coming in?"

"I'll be there in twenty minutes," Daniel said.

"Alright, I'll get everyone together in the briefing room"

"Okay" with that both men hung up.

Jack made his way out of his office to go round up Sam, Teal'c and General Hammond. Just as they all settled down at the table in the briefing room – minus Daniel – the stargate activated. Everyone hurried down to the control room and waited for some sort of identification code or message to come through. After a tense few moments, the technician at the dialing computer spoke up.

"Sir, receiving Tok'ra IDC"

"Open the iris" Hammond said, leading the way own to the control room. Just as SG1 and Hammond entered the gate room, Jacob Carter came down the metal ramp with a grim look on his face.

"Hello George" he greeted solemnly. "Sam" he nodded. "I think we should go to the briefing room," he said seriously. Hammond agreed, wishing he'd stayed in bed that morning, and they all went back up to the room.

Daniel burst into the briefing room worriedly a few minutes later, and was surprised to see Jacob there.

"Jacob…" He said slowly.

"Hello Daniel."

"What's going on?" Daniel asked sitting down beside Teal'c at the table.

"You're daughter and her friends were taken earlier?" Jacob asked, having already heard that much from O'Neill.

"Yeah, do you know who took them?" Daniel leaned forward clasping his hands nervously in front of him.

"Yes. We caught wind that a Goa'uld mother ship was making it's way to Earth a couple of days ago, and according to Sam, your sensors identified a large object entering the solar system earlier today. The Tok'ra are certain that there is a Goa'uld ship above Earth as we speak."

"Do you know which snakehead?" Jack asked form his spot beside Hammond. Jacob turned slightly in his seat, and sighed, nodding his head.

"Yes. It's - "

Rachel and her friends silently watched the man in front of them as he bowed his head.

"Bow before your god … Anubis."
