Don't own Stargate never will... I am now sad...you can make up when this story takes place, but I imagine somewhere near the middle of season 7...

"It's so, so, so..." stammered Jonas in awe.

"Bright?" suggested Jack putting a hand on Jonas's shoulder.

"Indeed," said Teal'c nodding slightly.

"It's so nice that you could take some time off and come and visit," said Sam smiling

"Well I need it," mumbled Jonas

"I'm guessing negotiations aren't going too smoothly?" Daniel asked sympathetically.

"No," bluntly replied Jonas, pulling Jack's black coat tighter around him. Jack and Daniel had lent Jonas some clothes for the trip. "I'm amazed Langra isn't just a pile of rubble."

"Well, it had sounded like things were getting better when we last talked to you," said Daniel, taking off his glasses and wiping them on his shirt "what happened?"

"No more talk about work," said Jack, "we have 2 weeks stand down and we decided we'd come to Las Vegas for a while. The last thing I want to hear about is politics...no offence Jonas."

Jonas sighed in relief "None taken sir".

"Stop calling me sir! We're on vacation. Call me Jack!" said Jack spreading his arms wide.

"Yes sir...oops", said Jonas, a sheepish grin appearing on his face. "I mean Jack".

Sam smiled. This vacation was perfect, they were away from work, and all of the members who'd ever lasted more than a week on SG-1 were reunited and having a good time. Well... you can never tell if Teal'c is having a good time but you can assume he is.

"What are our evening activities going to consist of?" Teal'c asked.

"How about a magic show?" Sam asked holding up 5 tickets.

"Sam, 5 of those things cost a fortune!" said Daniel taking a ticket from her.

"My cousin Mary-Ann works at the theater and she gets a discount" said Sam. "Come on, let's go. I love watching magic shows."

The rest of them gave her a strange look.

"What?" she asked in a perfect impression of Jack.

"We were not aware of your interests in magic," Teal'c stated after a moment of silence.

"We're going to be late if we don't hurry," Daniel said checking his watch

"Let's go!" said Jack, as everybody jogged towards the theatre. Jack then stopped, turned around and grabbed Jonas by the collar of his shirt and dragged him away from the lights he'd been looking at.

A few minutes later Sam, Teal'c, Daniel, Jonas, and Jack all arrived at the theatre only five minutes before the show started. They quickly found their seats and sat down just as the lights dimmed. A tall magician came onto the stage in a puff of smoke, he sported a pointed beard and long jet black hair pulled into a pony tail and the nape of his neck. He was dressed in traditional magician clothing.

"Hello, lovely audience! I am Cory the Majestic and this is my magic show" he said in a voice that echoed with a thick accent that Jack couldn't place. "I hope you have a good time tonight. We have food," he said waving his arm and a cake appeared on the table in front of him. "Drinks," he waved again and water fell onto the audience, soaking some, lightly spraying others. Unfortunately, Teal'c got drenched while the rest of SG-1 was just sprayed. Teal'c, of course, didn't move a muscle while Jack tried to contain his laughter.

After an hour of the 2 hour show there was an intermission.

"That guy is amazing," said Sam holding a bouquet of flowers that the Magician had given to her after helping him with one of the tricks

"Yeah, yeah, great," said Jack mumbling and folding his arms .

"The part with the eyes was really scary," said Jonas, "how was I supposed to know he wasn't goa'uld?"

"Well, on the bright side, it gave everybody in the theatre a good laugh," said Daniel, all of them had freaked out when the magician made his eyes glow. Jack had tried to get out of his seat and attack him. Jonas had let out a yelp. Sam tried to follow Jack. Daniel had sunk lower into his seat and Teal'c had narrowed his eyes and had also tried to get the people sitting beside him to move.

"I'm going to the washroom," said Jack as he spun on his heal and headed towards the men's as a few younger children started laughing and pointing at him, recognizing him as the guy who tried to kill the magician.

"Wait," said Jonas.

"What is it?" Jack asked.

"Washroom is that way," called Daniel pointing in the opposite direction.

"I knew that," Jack mumbled.

"He's a little out of it today," Sam mumbled.

"Well we all had quite the scare," Daniel said he then paused and added "I've decide I'm going to go for a walk. Anyone want to join me?"

"I'll go," said Jonas "my foot's asleep."

"I will remain here," said Teal'c

"Same and you only have 10 minutes left," said Sam, "just make sure you're back on time."

Daniel nodded and left with Jonas following behind him.

"So this is Las Vegas," sighed Jonas, "I've never been anywhere else on Earth except Colorado."

"Well you have been lots of places even if they're not on Earth, but didn't Sam say you went to Stevenson?" Daniel asked curiously.

"Oh yeah," said Jonas running his fingers through his hair that was styled somewhat like a 'Beatle' cut, but not quite as long. "Somehow I'd forgotten about that..."

"Be happy that's all you forgot," said Daniel.

"I meant to ask about that is all your memory back yet?" Jonas asked as he shoved he hands into his coats pockets.

"Yeah, I mean a few hazy things once and a while... but otherwise it's all here," said Daniel, tapping his head just as a loud noise came from a few meters behind them.

"What the hell was that?" Jonas asked whipping his head around. Daniel decide that Jonas had spent too much time around Jack

"I don't know," said Daniel slowly as they both bolted towards the noise. Jonas arrived first and stared in shock at what he saw in the alley behind the theatre.

"Oh my God!" Jonas said as the color drained from his face. Daniel stopped beside him in equal horror.

"Where are Jonas and Daniel?" Jack demanded impatiently.

"Maybe they just lost track of time," suggested Sam.

"Should we go look for them?" Teal'c asked.

"Let's wait a few more minutes," said Jack "then we can worry."

An hour later...

"Where'd the magician go?" Jack asked coming out of the theatre.

"Maybe he proceeded to make Jonas Quinn and Daniel Jackson disappear," Teal'c said, a shadow of a smile playing on his lips. However it quickly disappeared, "now may be the time to search for them O'Neill."

"Jonas probably ran off some where," said Sam, "this is a whole new place to him."

"Let's go see. Hopefully we'll find the magician too. That replacement act wasn't very good" sighed Jack.

"I agree..." said Sam and then froze when she exited the theatre. The cool night air didn't bother her as much as the sight she saw.

Police cars...everywhere. Crime scene tape covered the entrance to a back alley behind the theatre.

"Shit!" said Jack and he bolted forward. Teal'c followed, but Sam was too shocked to move.

"Jack!" Daniel called and waved him over to where he and Jonas were standing.

"Daniel, Jonas, what the hell did you do!?" yelled Jack as Teal'c came up behind him. Sam had finally found her feet and was now only a few feet behind them.

"We didn't do anything!" defended Jonas, a little offended that Colonel O'Neill would think him and Daniel would do something to attract this many police.

"Sorry to break this up," said a tall man with graying hair, "which one of you found the body?"

"Body?!" Sam, Teal'c, and Jack echoed in disbelief.

"That would be us," said Daniel gesturing to Jonas and himself awkwardly.

The man held out a badge "I'm Agent Gil Grissom from the Las Vegas Crime Lab. I have a few questions for you."
