Chapter 2 Meeting The Healer

Sg-1 sat in an anteroom waiting for admission into the Council Chambers of the Triad.

Jack was worried, the city they were in was underground and there were a lot of high tech doohickeys laying around the city. Whoever these people were, they knew how to build things.

Lots of things that Earth could use.

And not all of it looked Gou'ld in nature.

Before they reached the city, Barakis had lead them to a small clearing and a set of transport rings had delivered them into some type of underground railway station.

It had been quite busy with a mix of both Jaffa and Natives of all ages. They seemed to mix freely among one another. But what really shocked Jack was that most of them appeared free.

If not for the different clothes then Jack could have sworn he was in grand central station. It all looked so normal.

He had seen these people getting on to moving walkways. Not like the ones he had seen at airports but ones that seemed to move at incredible speeds that quickly took the pedestrians to where ever they wanted to go.

Teal'c had raised an eyebrow at what they had seen but Daniel and Carter had looked around like two kids in a candy store.

The people had looked in alarm at Teal'c when they noticed his tattoo but the presence of Barakis seemed to have a calming effect on them. The rest of Sg-1 were merely a minor curiosity next to Teal'c.

Barakis had avoided the walkways, instead he had lead them to some sort of mechanized rail car that rapidly sped them on their way at well…Jack could have sworn he heard a sonic boom during the first phase of acceleration.

The car had had no widows so Sg-1 had spent a silent half-hour waiting to get to their destination. Daniel had tried to talk to Barakis but he had politely rebuffed him.

When they had reached their destination, wherever it was Jack had sourly thought, they found themselves in a large foyer with what looked like a security desk at one side. Barakis had lead them to the desk and kindly requested that they at least hand over their heavy rifles and Teal'c's staff weapon. They may keep their sidearms only for they could not expect to meet his world's leaders while heavily armed.

So far everything had gone peacefully so Jack had reluctantly agreed.

So now they were waiting in the small antechamber past the security desk armed only with their pistols and zats.

The anteroom was not gold colored as Gou'ld rooms but it was gray white with a sheen, that lent dignity to the small room with a door opposite the one they had entered by.

Jack O'Neill was getting bored and that wasn't a good thing, "Carter how long have we been waiting here?"

She checked her watch and said, "Only a half hour sir."

Jack turned to Barakis, "Any idea how long we're going to be here? I do have other places to be you know," he commented dryly.

A sharp tone sounded before Barakis could respond and the door to the Council Chambers opened.

Barakis smiled smugly with humor in his iridescent eyes, at Jack and said, "I believe they will see you now," he gestured for them to enter ahead of him.

"Come on campers," said Jack to his team, "It looks like you're up Daniel," he said knowing it best to let Daniel do the talking in these situations. Even if Jack had ordered him not to talk he still would not have been able to keep quiet.

They filed silently into the Council Chambers.

Inside they found they found the room to be spacious but not overly so. The lights were dimmer in this producing a stilling effect. It had the same coloring as the anteroom and off to one side was a raised dais. On the dais stood three elegant long-backed chairs that sat close together and the middle one was slightly raised above the rest.

Jack noticed all these details secondary to the people that occupied the three chairs.

In the one on the left sat a massive male Jaffa warrior, he wore the traditional armor of the Jaffa but the forehead tattoo had been seared off and he looked to be older than Bra'tac.

In the one on the right sat a slight wrinkled old woman in a native garb. Her body appeared frail but her brown eyes with shrewd intelligence.

In the middle chair sat a regal aged woman in an elegant midnight blue cloak that covered her head but not her face.

A golden skinned female with the same iridescent blue eyes as Barakis but with two rows of small blue stars tattooed across her face and running over the bridge of her nose, under her eyes.

The family resemblance was uncanny.

She gestured for Sg-1 to come closer.

Daniel stepped forward and began his usual monologue, he gave a small bow before he began, "I am Dr Daniel Jackson, this is Colonel Jack O'Neill, Major Samantha Carter and Teal'c," he gestured to each one with each introduction. "We are peaceful explorers from the planet Earth, though most people know us as the Tau'ri, we came here to explore the ruins aboveground. We did not know about your society here but we would be honored if you would tell us of your society here."

The Native woman angrily spoke up, "Why should we tell you of our society here? So you may then return to your Gou'ld masters and tell them of our peaceful existence here?" she demanded of Daniel.

"No of course not," said Daniel quickly, "We are enemies of the Gou'ld just as you are, we have been fighting them for the past four years."

"Just four years?" asked the Jaffa warrior gruffly.

"Yeah well we only just reopened our gate," said Jack dryly.

The Jaffa warrior turned to stare at Jack. Jack stared back.

"Peace Amel'ak, Soreen," commanded the golden woman, "Please excuse their manners. We do not often have guest here on Miraan," she gazed at her two companions. She turned back to Sg-1, "Please allow me to introduce myself and my companions." She gestured to the Jaffa warrior, "This is Amel'ak, he represents the Jaffa of Miralan" she then gestured to the old woman, "And this is Soreen, she represents the Miran of Miraan." She paused and gazed at each of the members of Sg-1, "And I am The Healer, you may call me Barriss Offee. We are the ruling Triad of Miraan"
