AN: Okay, this chapter isn't as long as chapter two, but I felt that when I got to the bottom, it was the best place to leave off. Otherwise, I could have gone on forever and I still have a life and you guys want something to read. Again, if you guys have any ideas for where you want this story to go, just tell me and I'll try to incorporate it somehow. I have the basic outline in my head, but you know if you think of a joke of something you want Jack to make or you would like to see one of the characters do something, just let me know and I'll see what I can do. Thanks to all those who had review, though there aren't many of you. Thanks to those who have reviewed every chapter so far. The reviews really help and L E, your review made me laugh. That was great. But sorry, still have to do homework! Anyways, enjoy!

CHAPTER THREE – THE ANSWERS

   Daniel groaned, feeling as though his whole head had been shoved into a wood shedder. He ached all over and there was a sharp persistent pain in his lower back that he couldn't identify. He moved slightly only to gasp in pain. 'Okay, moving… bad idea,' he thought.

   His hands were bound making it impossible for him to sit up from his position on the floor. He was lying on his side on a hard cold concrete floor. Or was it concrete? He couldn't tell and frankly at the moment, he didn't care.

   That's when it all came back to him. He remembered seeing Jack and the others in the pyramid. He had wanted to warn them, but the serpent guard that held him had kept a hand over his mouth. He couldn't do anything but watch. He had watched that serpent guard sneak up behind Jack without Sam or Teal'c noticing but he had been able to break his mouth away long enough to shout out a warning. But it had been too late. They had been captured and right now Daniel had no way of knowing what had happened to them.

   He slowly cracked his eyes open a little to try and get his bearings. He was in some sort of cell. There were no windows and no doors. Just two concrete seats on either side of him with light pouring in through a lit panel in the wall, but there was nothing to see but a blinding white light.

   He risked moving his head up to glance at the ceiling and regretted it immediately because of the pain that shot through him, but he did see something that he would have found very fascinating under different circumstances. There was a hole, what looked like a door and people were walking past him… on the WALL!!!

   Part of his mind went haywire at seeing that. Part of him knew he had seen that before. But where? Dammit, why couldn't he remember? He felt weird about it though. Like if it was a memory, he had been… different at the time. But he had only been different when he had been an ascended, but that couldn't be it. He was told and he knew that all his memories of the time he spent as an ascended had been erased, as in, they were no longer in his head. But still…

   An image flashed before his eyes then. An image of Jack in the same sort of room he was now in except it was much brighter. Here, Daniel only had one small-lit panel and there, Jack had four. He was looking up at the opening with a puzzled look on his face. Daniel had seen this before; he knew that. He concentrated as hard as he could on the image he saw, willing something else to come to the surface. And slowly, it did…

   Jack hits one of the lit panels and sighs. There was no way through. He then gazes up at the opening in the ceiling and he seems to be staring at something, but as I look up, there is nothing there. Unless, or course, what Ba'al was doing to Jack was starting to affect his mind.

   "Hi, Jack," I say softly, waving to him as he turns to look at me.

   "Daniel…"

   "I leave and look at the mess you get yourself into."

   Jack gives me a quizzical look.

   "It's good to see you," I say softly looking him over. God was it ever good to see him. I haven't been allowed to come and see Jack since I ascended and it was driving me insane not being able to tell Jack and the others that I was all right.

   "Yeah," Jack says cautiously moving towards the bench opposite of me. "You too." He sits and sighs while leaning against the far wall. "It's a shame that you're a delusion."

   I shake my head. "No, I'm here. I'm…really here."

   "Sure you are." He answers skeptically.

   Daniel sighed in frustration, sinking back against the floor. He couldn't remember it. It was taking to much effort to try and pull that memory forward and right now he didn't have the time for it, or the will power. He was far too tired and drained.

   "Jack, where the hell are you?" He whispered slightly, wondering if he was ever going to get out of this. 'I shouldn't have left the dwelling,' Daniel thought sadly. 'I should have stayed there are at the very least told someone where I was going. Maybe I should have even brought someone with me.' He sighed. It wasn't going to do him any good thinking about what he should have done. All he could do was think about what he could do now to get himself out of this mess. Starting with getting off this cold floor.

   With a grunt of pain, Daniel pushed himself up from the floor and leaned back against the wall. His body was now shaking with the effort, but at least he was up. Now all he needed to do was find a way out.

   He glanced around the room, seeing if there was anything he could use to cut the ropes that bound his hands. Nothing. All there was were those two built in benches in the sides of his cell. "Great," Daniel said, gazing back up at the opening. "Just great."

   He sighed, slouching down against the wall into a more comfortable position. What was he going to do? There was no way out of here, or at least, none that he could see. He appeared to be in some sort of gravity defying room, most likely controlled from somewhere out there.

   "Think, Daniel. Just think," He said closing his eyes. There must be a way out. There had too be? He frowned. Ya right. Some powerful Goa'uld controlled this place. It wouldn't be easy to escape. It was probably a lot easier to gain the whole universe.

   He shook his head. He couldn't think like that, there had to be away out of here. He just needed to find it. Of course finding it would be the hard part seeing as he could barley move and standing was so out of the question. There was nothing he could do right now but sit and wait for his body to recover enough so that he could move. In the mean time, he had to try and figure out what was going on. Who was doing this to them? Was it the same people who took Sha'uri? If so, it would mean that she was some where in this place also.

   His eyes snapped opened. What if she was here? God, the thought was pure torture. So close, yet so far away. God, why did this have to happen? Why couldn't the Goa'uld just leave them alone?

   "Okay, think through this logically," Daniel mumbled to himself, gazing around the room again. "The door's up there and this room has some sort of gravity machine in it. Ba'al used the same sort of thing on Jack, if I'm not mistaken. So… the Goa'uld that we're dealing with could be Ba'al." He paused for a moment, wondering how he had known about Ba'al. He hadn't read about him anywhere and Jack had never mentioned him. Maybe, he was the Goa'uld that had locked Jack away in that cell from his vision. But still, how did he know his name. 'Who cares how I know it?' Daniel thought angrily. 'Right now I guess want to get out of here.' He sighed, shutting his eyes for a moment to try and calm himself down. Then he resumed his train of thought.

    "But that doesn't seem to fit. Why would Ba'al attack us? Maybe he's still pissed off at Jack, but then how did he know where I'd go and what my name was? Not only that, but why would he care?"

   He sighed, rolling his head back softly 'til it hit the wall. Even that same movement was causing him pain. He sighed and closed his eyes. "No, it couldn't be Ba'al. His Jaffa where different, they weren't Serpent guards. Apophis' Jaffa were Serpents, but Apophis is dead, or so Sam and Teal'c told me." He shook his head slowly as not to cause much pain. "I'm never going to figure this out. At least," he stared back up at the opening. "Not without help."

***

   "Colonel." Jack blinked, not understanding what was going on. He ached all over and he felt like he had had one to many drinks.

   "Colonel, can you hear me?"

   Jack looked up and saw Sam leaning over him, a concerned look on her face. She seemed really pale and he could tell that she was hurt.

   "Major?"

   Sam sighed in relief. "Thank God. We were beginning to wonder if maybe the Goa'uld had done more to you then just hit you with a Zat gun."

   Jack groaned as he sat up. "Great," he said, gazing around the room. They were in a cell. One of those stupid gravity controlled ones like the one he had been stuck in when Ba'al had captured him. He saw Teal'c gazing up at the ceiling trying to find a way out.

   "Don't bother," Jack said. "There's only one way out and that's impossible until someone flicks that swicthy thing up there." He pointed upward.

   "How do you know this?" Teal'c asked turning to face the colonel.

   Jack sighed. "Because this is the same sort of room Ba'al had me locked up in and believe me, I spent enough time here to examine every aspect of it."

   He winched as he rubbed the back of his neck. God was he ever sore. He gazed around the all to familiar room, taking in everything. But something was missing. "Where's Daniel?" He asked.

   Sam lowered her gaze and Teal'c had that look he always had when he had bad news to tell. "What?" Jack asked.

   "Daniel's not here, sir," Sam said softly.

    "Nor was he ever here. I have been awake since we were put in here. Daniel Jackson was not with us," Teal'c said.

   Jack groaned and hit his head against the wall he was leaning against. Just what he needed. Not only where they locked up in one of these God-forsaken cells but also Daniel was missing and they didn't have a clue where he was. Then the last thing he had heard before blacking out came back into his mind. 'Remember this, Tau'ri. You will never again see that man that you so cherish.'

   "Dammit," Jack swore. "Does anyone know if Daniel was still alive? The last thing I remember was seeing him lying face down on the sand in the temple, but I wasn't sure if he was alive or not."

   "The last I saw of him, sir, he was alive. They pulled him off the ground before they knocked me out and I watched him take in a shallow breath." Sam answered, trying not to think to hard about what those Serpent guards had done to Daniel.

   "Okay," Jack said, nodding his head. "So we'll assume he's still alive, then." Inwardly, he breathed a sigh of relief. He had wished Carter to say something like that. He didn't think he could deal with it if they had told him that Daniel was dead… again.

   Sam nodded, then glanced up at the opening. "We won't be able to help him though if we can't figure out a way to get out of here."

   Jack pushed himself to his feet and gazed around the cell. He had stared at these walls so much before that he was sick of them already. The difference was that Carter and Teal'c were here with him now and Daniel was not.

   He sighed. "Any idea who's behind this, Major?"

   Sam shook her head. "None, sir. The guards that captured us are Serpent guards, but both Apophis and Hathor are dead."

   Jack scratched his head. "Could it be Ba'al? He had these types of cells. The only Goa'uld that does, or so Daniel had told me."

   Sam frowned. "When did he tell you that?"

   Jack gazed at her in puzzlement for a moment before slapping his head in his stupidity. He had never told her about Daniel's little visits when he had been captured by Ba'al. He guess now was as good a time as any. "He told me that when Ba'al had me looked up in one of these," he said, gesturing around the room.

   Sam's frown deepened. "He came to you when he was an ascended."

   "Don't take it personally, Major," Jack said, seeing the look that was forming on her face. "Daniel told me that he wasn't about to just stand by and let Ba'al torture me. From reading between the lines, I figured that he had sort of pushed you, Teal'c and Jonas in the right direction to find me without you realizing it."

   Sam nodded slowly, feeling a little hurt that Daniel had visited both Teal'c and Jack, but not her. Maybe he hadn't wanted too. Maybe he had felt that she hadn't needed him too, though now, after hearing this from Jack, she wished he had come to visit her. It would have been nice to see him and he could have helped her. How, she didn't know, but it would have been nice to at least know he was out there somewhere, watching over them.

   "We should return to the matter at hand," Teal'c's deep voice cut Sam out of her thoughts. "We are still no closer then to solving this puzzle then we were a few moments again."

   "Right," Sam answered, gazing around the room again. Her eyes landed on a symbol inside of an engraved sphere. "Colonel, what's this?"

   Jack followed her gaze and shrugged. "I'm not sure. I think it turns when they activate that switch on the outside."

   Sam, taking in what the Colonel had said, walked closer to the symbol, examining it closely. She ran a hand over it gently taking n every curve and line. "Sir," She stared, "maybe we can somehow force it to turn so the gravity with turn back to normal."

   "And how do we plan on doing that?" Jack asked, his hands behind his head as he walked closer to Sam.

   Sam let her eyes wonder over the symbol. "I'm not sure."

   Jack threw his hands into the air. "Well that's a great help."

   Sam ignored him and continued to try and figure out how to turn the symbol. "When you said it turned, sir, which way did it turn?"

   Jack looked at it then looked at the opening. "Left." He said.

   Sam nodded then turned to Teal'c, Teal'c you think you could give me a hand."

   He nodded and stepped forward.

   "Okay, said Sam, "now what we want to do is try to force it to turn left. We're going to have to try and put as much force into it as possible."

   Teal'c nodded and placed his hands on the right side of the symbol, as did Sam. Sam gave Jack a look and with a sighed and a flail of his arms, he too grabbed hold of the thing.

   "Now, on the count of three," Sam said. "One… Two… THREE!!!" the three of then pushed as hard as they could against the symbol, but it wouldn't budge. Even with Teal'c extra strength, the symbol remained stubbornly in pace. After a few moments they gave up.

   Jack flopped down on the bench beside him and sighed. "Yes, that really worked."

   "You will not free yourselves like that."

   All three of them immediately shot their heads up ward and staggered back at who they saw sanding up there.

   "It is impossible to escape," The girl said, her brown eyes glaring at them.

***

   Daniel's eyes shot opened when he heard movement above him. He had been resting, trying to at least gain some of his strength back. He looked up to see two Serpent guards surrounding the opening. Suddenly, he could feel the gravity in the room shifting and he slide down to the other side of the room. He groaned at the movement, but at least it wasn't as bad now as it had been before.

   He now lay in a pile on what used to be the wall but was now the floor. The two Serpent guards came into the cell, grabbed his arms and pulled him to his feet. He winched slightly, but found that he was able to stand, abet a little painfully.

   The guards pushed him forward and made him walk out of the cell. His legs protested with the movements, but there wasn't much he could do to stop it. They lead him down the long corridor that was outside his cell. They turned right, then left, then right again. Daniel's mind was still too clouded with the pain of his movements to keep track of the many corridors that they passed or turned into. 

   After a few minutes, they came to a set of large metal doors. One of the Serpent guards kept a tight hold on Daniel's arms, making him winch in pain, as the other ran his hand over a switch. The metal doors slide opened and Daniel was pushed into the room ahead of the guards.

   The first thing Daniel noticed upon entering the room was the Stargate. It stood at the side of the room on a raised platform, the DHD just a few steps away from it. He frowned. Why had they brought him to a room with a Stargate in it?

   The rest of the room reminded Daniel of the temple back on Shamda's homework. It was all dark brown colours and he could see a small alter at the far end of the room. There where large windows to Daniel's right that had purplish drapes over them though Daniel couldn't see anything out of them; it was really too dark. 'God, I must have been here awhile,' Daniel thought.

   At that moment, the guards smacked him in the back of the knees, forcing him down to the ground. He winch and almost scream with the pain, but bit it back. He wasn't going to let them now that he was in pain. It wouldn't do any good.

   "Hello, Daniel Jackson," said a voice from somewhere in the shadows. Daniel looked around but he didn't see anyone.

   "Who are you?" Daniel asked, keeping the pain out of his voice as best he could.

   There was a pause, then. "You do not remember me?"

   Daniel frowned. "No, acutely."

   The voice laughed. "No, I thought you would not. I heard all about your memory loss, Daniel. Though that's not all I heard about."

   Daniel tried to find where the voice was coming from, but couldn't. "Really," he said, trying to buy some time. "What else have you heard?"

   There was another laugh. "I have heard many things, Daniel. One of them being that you were forced to descend."

   Daniel grimaced. 'Great, do all the Goa'ulds know that then?' He thought. Daniel sighed. "You know a lot about me, but you never answered my question."

   There was a pause and Daniel saw movement from his left behind one of the pillars next to the Stargate. "You know me, Daniel. Though you may not remember me." A man stepped out from behind the pillar and stepped into the light. Daniel had seen him before. Down in that cave. He had been the man with his back turned to him.

   The man smiled, seeing the confused looked on Daniel's face. "I am Apophis!' He said

   Daniel's eyes widened. Apophis. But that was… impossible. He was dead, wasn't he? "You're dead." Daniel said.

   Apophis laughed. "Yes. I was. But now I am not."

   Daniel shook his head. "No, you died. I know it. Sokar had tortured you."

   Apophis laughed. "You have heard all this from you friends. You do not remember the actual event, do you?"

   Daniel shook his head. "No, I don't. But my friends have no reason to lie to me."

   Apophis smiled and started to circle Daniel. "Your friends did not lie, Daniel. They merrily did not tell you everything. Do you know what they did with me after I had died?"

   Daniel closed his eyes for a moment, not understanding what the hell was going on. "No,' he said after a moment. "I don't"

   Apophis laughed. "They sent me through the gate right back into Sokar's awaiting hands to save themselves." He said. "Sokar revived me and tortured me again and again. It was only after he had gotten sick of me that he disposed of me on his little planet of hell and left me to die."

   There was a pause and Apophis didn't continue.

   "Then what did you do?" Daniel asked.

   Apophis smiled. "My Jaffa found me and healed me with a sarcophagus."

   "Ah," Daniel lowered his head, to look at the floor. So Apophis was back. It all made sense now. But… "What have you done with my wife?" Daniel asked, looking back up at Apophis. He didn't particularly like looking up at Apophis, but he couldn't really change that at the moment.

   "Right to the point," Apophis said. He turned around and snapped his fingers. A Jaffa appeared from somewhere behind the wall. "Tuca re mera Ammo'net!"

   The Jaffa disappeared. Daniel had a bad feeling about this. Apophis had just asked the Jaffa to go get Ammo'net. Did that mean that when they had revived Sha'uri they had also revived Ammo'net? God, he hoped not. He didn't want to have to live through that again.

   A few moments later, the Jaffa reappeared followed by a woman. Daniel's breath caught in his throat when he saw her. "Sha'uri,' he whispered. She looked just like he remembered her, but there was a gazed look in her eyes that he had never seen before. It was as though she wasn't really there.

   "You called, my lord," she said, but she didn't speak with the sound of a Goa'uld voice. It was her own. It was Sha'uri's voice that she had spoken with. But it was what she had said that man Daniel cringe. My lord. Sha'uri had called Apophis her lord.

   "Yes," Apophis said, gazing down at Daniel. "Do you know him, my love?"

   Sha'uri gazed down at him and Daniel could have sworn that he had seen something spark in her eyes, but it was gone just as quickly as it had come. "No, my lord." She answered.

   Daniel's heart fell. She didn't recognize him. He had hopped that when they found her she would be herself and that he could just take her back to Earth and keep her there so she would be safe and he wouldn't have to worry about losing her again, but that wasn't going to be the case. His hope had been shattered again.

   Apophis smiled. "His name is Daniel Jackson. He is a Tau'ri from Earth." He explained. Again, Daniel saw something flicker in her eyes. "We found him on Abydos, my love.' He leaned closer to her. "In your secret cave."

   The flicker was brighter this time, but still it vanished. Unfortunately, Daniel hadn't been the only one to see it this time. "You do know him, don't you love?" Apophis said, smiling.

   Sha'uri shook her head. "No, my lord. I do not." He voice faltered a bit at the end and Daniel wondered what the hell was going on with her. 'Come on, Sha'uri,' Daniel thought. 'Break through.'

   Apophis gripped her by the arms and shook her softly, forcing her to look him in the eye. Daniel tried to get up and help her, but the guards behind him held him in place. "You do know him! I see it in your eyes! Stop hiding it from me!" He yelled, though Daniel noticed that he still wasn't angry. He was smiling, but yelling at her at the same time. He didn't understand it.

   Sha'uri's eyes again flickered. She looked away from Apophis. "I…I…"

   Apophis smiled. "Just what I thought." Daniel gazed at him confused. "You know him and yet… you don't."

   She shook her head, tears in her eyes. She gazed down at Daniel and a sob escaped her mouth before she looked away again, but the look she had given him was enough to let Daniel know that that was his Sha'uri.

   "What the hell have you done to her!?" Daniel yelled angrily, wanting to know what was happening. The look in Sha'uri's eyes tore at his heart and he needed to understand what was wrong with her.

   Apophis glared down at him and smiled his little evil smile. "You have stolen Ammo'net from me, Daniel. And now… I have stolen your wife."

   Daniel frowned. "I never stole Ammo'net!"

   "Yes, you did," Apophis yelled, his temper rising. "You stole her from me the moment that shol'va shot her and murdered her. I went back to your wife's home planet and found her grave. I brought her back hoping to have my love back with me only to find that she was gone, dissolved into your wife's body. As punishment for what you have done to my love, I have taken yours."

   Daniel glared at him, again trying to rise, but the guards held him back. It didn't help that he was still hurting all over from what had happened to him and also his hands were still tied behind his back. He couldn't do anything. "Sha'uri would never willingly give herself to you," Daniel spat out. "What have you done?"

   Apophis smiled, his grip on Sha'uri tightening. She sobbed from the pain and again looked at Daniel. He felt like he was going to explode if he didn't get to her. All Daniel wanted to do was just hold her in his arms and comfort her, but he couldn't. God, he couldn't.

   "I have done nothing life threatening, Daniel," Apophis answered. "I have heard that you know that the Goa'uld posses ways of controlling a persons mind without turning them into hosts."

   Daniel grimaced. Oh ya, he had heard about that. Or more accurately, he had read about it. Apophis had once controlled Teal'c's son, forcing the young boy to believe that his father and mother were traitors. Now, Apophis was using that some method again, only this time he was using it on his wife. His Sha'uri.

   Apophis smiled. "Well, unfortunately, your wife has far to much sprit for me to control her for very long." He looked back at Sha'uri and she tried to release herself from his grip, but he held her fast. "She tries to hid it, but I know better. Especially when I heard her talking to herself about you and how she knew that you would somehow find a way to get her."

   He turned back to Daniel, the smiling disappearing. "And she was right. We went back to Abydos and waited. Sure enough, you came and discovered that your wife had been taken. We hid in that cave, knowing that you would somehow find your way there."

   Apophis motioned towards the Jaffa that had brought Sha'uri in and he stepped forward and took a hold of Sha'uri. Apophis stepped closer to Daniel and leaned forward so his was mere inches from his face.

   "You see, Daniel, I know something about you and your wife that neither of you have a clue of." He said.

   Daniel kept his eyes cold, trying to ignore the sobs her heard coming from Sha'uri. He needed to be strong for them to get through this. "And what would that be?"

   Apophis's eyes glowed. "You and your wife share something very unique, Daniel. A bond that allows you to locate her and feel what she is feeling. It works both ways. You wife knew where you were, so I used that to my advantages. I also played on the hope that you would unknowingly follow that link to that cave where she was and I guessed right. You showed up, Daniel. And now, thanks to you, your friends will suffer for what you have done to my love."

   Daniel cringed inwardly. 'Great,' He thought. "Why would you torture my friends for something I did?" Daniel asked.

   Apophis merrily smiled and stepped back a bit. "As I said before, your wife does not stay under my control for very long because she is able to fight it off. But I realize now that the reason she fought it off was because of the hope she has that you would come and take her away from here. Some of course, if I torture you to death right before her eyes, he sprit will be defeated and she will be mine!"

   Another sob broke free from Sha'uri and both Daniel and Apophis turned to her. Apophis was smiling like a madman while Daniel could so nothing but looked at his wife helplessly. What could he do? If he died not only would he lose Sha'uri again, but she will also lose herself and Apophis will win. But if he didn't die, Sha'uri would still be trapped. He didn't know what he could do?

   "Sha'uri," Daniel called to her. "Don't let Apophis get to you! No matter what happens to me, you need to fight!" Daniel told her, hoping that his words would somehow get through to her and she'd listen.

   Apophis laughed. "Pretty words, Daniel, But they won't do you or her any good." He then turned to the Jaffa holding Sha'uri. "Jaffa, tuc nomatic! Crue!"

   The Jaffa stepped forward with Sha'uri and Apophis griped her again. She sobbed, but could do nothing. Apophis raised a hand to her and Daniel saw what he was going to do a moment before he did it. "Sha'uri!" He screamed, just as Apophis activated the device and Sha'uri's screams filled the room.

  She suddenly went limp in Apophis's arms and Daniel's eyes tear. "No!" He screamed, knowing full well what Apophis had done, or will do.

   Apophis ignored him and handed Sha'uri back to the Jaffa who bent down and lifted her into his arms. "Tu'ca melatish so're!" Apophis said. The Jaffa bowed and left the room taking Sha'uri with him. Daniel watched them leave, feeling like he had failed Sha'uri again. She was right there and he hadn't been able to help her.

   Apophis turned back to Daniel. "I have lifted the control on her mind. When she wakes, she will be herself."

   Daniel felt like his emotions were truing to choke him. He felt so lost as to what to do and he had no idea what was going on. He was drowning, but part of his mind was still thinking clearly and was able to answer to what Apophis had just said. "Why did you do that?" He said softy, looking back up at Daniel.

   Apophis smiled. "It is much easier to control someone if you control them when they have nothing left to fight for. By watching you died slowly without me controlling her, she will give in to me very easily."

   Daniel struggled against the guards to just get up and strangle Apophis. That fucking asshole. Daniel wished for nothing more then to kill him with his own bare hands.

   Apophis laughed. "Maybe if you are good, Daniel. I'll let her give you a good-bye kiss." He laughed as the Serpent guards dragged Daniel to his feet and pushed him out of the room. Apophis's laughter echoed throughout the entire fortress and rocked Daniel to his very soul.

   No, he couldn't kill Apophis, but Daniel swore, as the guards pushed him down the halls, that he would get Sha'uri back and make Apophis pay for what he had done to her. 'I'll come for you, Sha'uri,' Daniel thought to himself, as he was lead into another dark room. 'Even if I have to tare down the very gates of hell to do it.'

   The huge metal doors closed around Daniel and he was surrounded by darkness. 

AN: I think that was a great place to leave off. Sorry that it wasn't longer, I'll try to make the next one longer, but don't count on it. It all depends on what I feel like. Anyways, please review! I love hearing from you and ideas are welcome. Thanks!!!
