22?
Sam was told to meet Gen. Hammond in the medical bay by the marine who checked her in. Worried that something had happened to Teal'c while he was on a mission with SG-10, Sam rushed to the elevator.
As she opened the doors she saw a sleeping red headed woman that she'd never met before. A nurse was quietly taking her blood pressure while Gen. Hammond, Janet, and Teal'c were gathered around another bed. When they heard her walk in they moved out of the way, no longer blocking her view of the patient on the other bed.
Sam dropped her keys and they landed on the ground with a loud "clank." She stood there silently for a few moments, not daring to believe what she saw. When her legs started working again, Sam rushed to the patient and grabbed him into a fierce hug.
"Jack." She whispered through streaming tears.
Jack held her tight, fighting back tears of his own. "Sam." He sighed against her neck.
It was five minutes before Sam would let him go, and even then she held tightly onto his hand. Even while Gen. Hammond was speaking, Sam never took her eyes off of Jack. She could not believe he was home. Jack. God she missed him.
Sam was convinced, after a calming talk from Janet, to let go of Jack's hand long enough for Janet to do a complete physical on him. She noted that his left thumb was missing and that he was covered in bruises and blood. "Who's the girl Jack?" Janet asked, nodding her head in the direction of her newest patient.
"Myrin." Jack said quietly. He could tell that Janet was about to ask him more questions about her so he shook his head. "I don't really know much else about her. She may be pregnant though."
Janet frowned, but decided to drop the subject for the moment. "How'd lose your thumb?"
Sam sat up straight at the question, looking over at Jack's hands. She hadn't noticed it missing before. "Oh God Jack." Sam paled. She couldn't imagine the horrors he'd gone through.
Jack looked at her, wishing Janet would hurry with the physical so he could hold Sam again. "I'm not sure." He said honestly. He never remembered having lost it when his memories came back. Maybe he'd blocked it out or something. He shrugged. "I guess somewhere between the time I was tortured by some 'natives' to when I woke up in a 'hospital'." At Janet and Sam's confused looks Jack elaborated. "I was in a holographic chamber. We all were. The whole time I was gone, all I saw, everything, was fake. The natives, the hospital, forest, prison, everything was fake. Like some Star Trek episode gone crazy."
"How did Thor find you?" Gen. Hammond asked.
Jack sighed. He wasn't really in the story telling mood, but he knew he'd have to tell it sooner or later. "I was destroying the control panel when Simone, I mean Myrin, came up behind me and handed me my gun. I thought she was dead, but then I realized that Ralk had told me that, so I wasn't too surprised that he'd lied to me."
"Who's Ralk?" Janet asked, monitoring Jack's blood pressure.
"The bastard who did this to us." Jack answered. He reached his right hand out to Sam, who took it willingly. Janet opted to leave them alone, knowing that it was more important for Jack tell them what happened then for him to not be touching anyone. Besides, with Sam near him Janet knew he'd co-operate better.
Jack continued his story, "Just as the chamber failed and we became surrounded by one huge grid, I was beamed up onto Thor's ship. I told him to get Myrin and he beamed her up too. She was more frightened by Thor then I think she was of Ralk, so she fainted." Jack looked over at Sam. "I hugged the little grey guy." He admitted.
Sam smiled slightly. "I think I will too, next time I see him."
Hammond frowned. "So those men are still alive?"
Jack shook his head. "Thor took care of them."
"They are a peaceful species." Teal'c said.
"Yeah, well, Thor was pissed off. As much as he could get pissed off."
"It's good to have you back Jack." Hammond said, clapping Jack on the back. "If you'll excuse me, I have to inform the President that you have returned, and that you've brought a guest."
Hammond gave Jack a warm smile, then left the medical bay. Janet left Jack's bed to check on Myrin. Teal'c, catching the hint, gave Jack and Sam a nod, then left to guard the door to the medical bay.
Sam looked up at Jack, still unbelieving that he was back. "I love you Jack."
"I love you too Sam." He gathered her in a hug. "Thinking about you was the only thing that kept me going Sam." He kissed her gently. "Well, you and the baby."
Sam grinned. "Babies Jack."
"What?" Jack asked, grinning.
"We had twins. Twin boys." Jack brought her into another hug, his attempt of hiding the tears that forced their way down his cheek. Sam saw them, of course, but she said nothing as she held her husband.
"Jack?"
They both turned to look at Daniel, who had just walked into the room.
A/N Jack's back! Happy now? LOL! How will this affect Daniel? What will happen to his and Sam's relationship? How will the twins react when they finally get to meet their father? How did Thor finally find Jack? How will Myrin react when she wakes up on yet another strange planet? And can Dee get Abby to behave long enough finish this fic, or will she strike again before it's over?
