"What?" Sam asked after a moment, the words finally settling in.

"Why?" Daniel asked still confused.

"Because, the two cell members would be able to spot NID agents, even new ones. We haven't been able to completely keep rogue agents out of our files so any NID agent is compromised." Barrett answered.

"So why not black ops?" Jack asked, directing his question to Major Davis.

"Other than the fact that we would have to explain what the SGC and the Goa'uld are? Because the mission is considered top secret, just like any SG mission." Davis replied.

"But won't the rogue agents recognize SG-1 members since they have access to NID files?" Sam asked.

"No, not this cell. It would be like a scientist on the X-302 project knowing what you guys look like, they know of you but they don't know you. This cell is only research and weaponry they won't be able to spot a SG-1 member." Barrett answered.

"So how are we going to decide who's going under?" Sam asked as she watched Barrett and Jack watched her.

"Well it can't be T for obvious reasons." Jack replied and Teal'c nodded in agreement, the large man could maybe pass as human if he didn't have a large gold brand on his forehead.

"And I'm scheduled to be off world for two weeks starting next week." Daniel piped up; his details made Sam and Jack look at each other.

"It's none of your concern." Davis spoke up, gaining everyone's attention.

"The decision has already been made." Barrett mirrored.

Davis pulled two more files out of his stack and handed the first to Sam, "Obviously Sam, since you're the only female assigned to SG-1 you will be going under."

Sam nodded as she took the offered folder, flipped it open and began reading. Daniel leaned over her shoulder to see some of the information.

"And Colonel..." Davis said holding the other file out to the grayed colonel, "You were the Joint Chiefs other choice."

Jack forced himself to swallow as he looked across the table at Sam who, by some miracle, managed not to blush. They exchanged worried looks and Jack spoke up, "But that isn't right, I mean Carter is my 2IC - this would be considered fraternization."

"Generally Colonel, you'd be correct but I've got a document signed by the President of the United States in my hand that has waved you and Major Carter from all Air Force law until the cell has been apprehended." Davis retorted.

"All law?" Sam managed to ask in a halfway decent voice.

"Yes, the President and the Joint Chiefs decided that you and Colonel O'Neill will have to convince your new neighbors that you are indeed married and Air Force law wouldn't allow you to do so, so you are both temporarily waved from the Air Force rules." Major Davis explained as Daniel gave Teal'c a knowing look from across the table.

"So when does this undercover operation begin?" Daniel asked in an attempt to keep from smirking.

"Immediately." Agent Barrett answered and received a gasp from Sam and a muddled sound from Jack.

"Immediately?" They asked in unison.

"Yes." Major Davis took over, "There are two cars awaiting you topside to bring you to your homes so you can pack. You won't need to take any furniture or household essentials, they're already taken care of."

"How much do we pack? I mean how long are we going to be under?" Sam asked, searching Davis' eyes for some sign.

"It depends." Davis answered, "We need you to confirm that they have the chest and preferably the key. Once you do - we can stop our efforts searching other possible NID hideouts. If you discover that they have both, we won't be able to just barge in, we'd be risking releasing the Queen but if you only discover the chest then we can send a team in. As soon as you get the information that we're seeking, which is within your folders, then the mission is over."

"So...what? We move in, make friends, break into their place when they're not home and find what we're looking for, it's what? A few day thing?" Jack asked, shrugging off the case.

"No." Barrett replied, "The scientist might not have the chest or the key but they know where it is, it might even be dropped off in their home for further study at some point so you need to become friends with these people, gain their trust and really just sit back and observe until the time is right. I don't need to explain when the time is right to you, an ex-special operations officer, do I Colonel?"

Jack went still on the other side of the desk and Sam took her chance to lessen the sudden tension, "So that still doesn't answer the question, I mean we can't be undercover for any long period of time, we're the flag team for the SGC."

"Yes but for as long as it takes, SG-1 has been put on downtime." Major Davis said from his spot at the desk.

"So are we talking years here?" Daniel asked, suddenly very concerned.

"No." Agent Barrett spoke up. "If Major Carter and Colonel O'Neill are unable to find any evidence after two months the NID will determine that the chest and key are not at the home and they'll be pulled out and other avenues of interest will be pursued."

"Will Major Carter and O'Neill be included in the other undercover mission to follow if that should happen?" Teal'c asked, his deep voice catching everyone's attention.

"No. After this little stint both the NID and the Joint Chiefs will call Major Carter and Colonel O'Neill done with their service." Davis answered. "Anymore questions?"

SG-1 was too baffled to even think of how to spell SGC at that point so no objections were called out so Davis and Barrett stood.

"Now Major Carter, Colonel O'Neill, if you two will accompany us to the surface." Agent Barrett said as he gathered his folders and Major Davis mirrored him.

"I guess by leaving now you mean now?" Jack asked sarcastically.

Sam stood and hugged Daniel as they quickly exchanged goodbyes before moving around the table to Teal'c. Less than a minute later, Sam, Jack, Major Davis and Agent Barrett were riding an elevator to the surface. The shock still hadn't left yet as Sam and Jack stood next to each other in the elevator car, neither would dare look at the other. Two months living together without Air Force law applying to them? They had problems standing next to each other for two minutes with Air Force law intact. Silently they both hoped that they would be able to have some control over themselves - or at least have the other one crack first.


After Thoughts: I know this ends sort of abruptly but I thought it was a good note to end it on, please review! Do you still want more?
