13?

A/N xdaigonstarx – I wasn't going to write another chapter tonight as watching LOST kinda drains me, I get too excited (same reason I can't write after a new episode of Stargate). But, because you made me laugh with your review, this chapter is dedicated to you.

While reading a book to J.D., Daniel watched Sam from the corner of his eye. She was dancing and singing to Jonathan. Neither were speaking yet, but Jonathan was already bottle broken. He threw the bottle down once and never wanted it back. Sam shrugged, figuring it would be easier to break J.D. She was wrong. He wanted his bottle even more now.

Sam exaggerated her plopping on the couch to elicit a giggle from Jonathan. He complied with a smile. She grinned and looked over at Daniel. "Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall." Daniel read. J.D. kept pointing to the pictures and Daniel would give him a big nod and a smile. "Egg." He said.

Sam laughed. Nothing was cuter then watching the bookworm teach a baby how to "read". "What?" Daniel asked, giving her a defensive look. "He'll say it one day, and then you'll feel like the doofus."

"Doofus?" Sam asked, raising her eyebrow.

Daniel gave her a sheepish grin. "Kelsey calls me that."

"Awww!" Sam said, realization dawning on her. They'd been dating for three months and Daniel seemed to really like her. She didn't quite get the situation at the O'Neill house, but she seemed to deal with it well. At least she treated Daniel well. And she was good with the twins, though she favored J.D. over Jonathan. Just about everyone did, as he was more of a people person. Jonathan wanted to be around people he knew and new people scared him.

Jonathan screamed, wanting his mother's attention. Sam gave it to him. She'd read the books that said she was teaching him bad habits, but she wanted her kids to know that anytime they needed or wanted her, she was going to be there.

J.D. hit his hand on Daniel's chest and said, "Da."

Daniel looked at J.D. and then at Sam. "Did he…was that…his first word?"

Sam shrugged. "See if you can get him to say it again."

"J.D.," the baby looked at Daniel. "Who am I?" He pointed to his own chest.

"Da." J.D. said, hitting Daniel's chest again.

Sam and Daniel broke out into grins and Sam, holding Jonathan, rushed to the chair and hugged the baby. Daniel took his turn and then they asked him who Sam was. J.D. just stared at them as if they were crazy. He pointed to Daniel again and said, "Da."

Too thrilled to be upset about his first word not being "mama", Sam tried to get Jonathan to speak. Jonathan became engrossed in the book Daniel had and looked at the bright colors.

"Doesn't look like his first word is gonna be today." Daniel frowned.

Sam handed Jonathan to Daniel. "I have to go write this in J.D.'s baby book." She explained.

Jack had regained his memory shortly after being lost in the woods. He realized that whatever they injected him with was supposed to erase his memory for longer then it had. He took the pieces of what he remembered Fyger saying and determined that they were doing experiments on humans. Putting them in different situations and seeing how they react.

He was stuck in the forest for a total of five days before Ralk walked up to him. The woods disappeared and Jack found himself in a white room covered in grids. "Holographic chamber." Ralk said, answering Jack's unvoiced question.

"What do you want?" Jack asked, disgusted that he'd trusted this man.

"Oh, don't hate me Jack. I'm your ally in this." Seeing Jack's disbelief Ralk went on to explain that Fyger wanted to do more experiments on Jack, but that Ralk had refused. "You've been through enough."

"Where are my team members?" Jack asked. He'd searched for Daniel and Teal'c in the forest, but there was no sign of them. Of course he knew why now.

"They escaped Jack." Ralk said. "We wanted to keep the Jaffa, but we underestimated him."

"And Daniel?"

Ralk grinned. "We let him go. He was too weak for us. No sense in killing him just because we couldn't use him."

Jack glared at Ralk. "Let me repeat my first question. 'What do you want?'."

"We're going to let you go Jack."

"Great. Point me to the exit." Sarcasm dripped from his voice.

"It's not as easy as that."

"I didn't think it would be."
