Sorry, computer crashed! I couldn't go on! All right now lets get back to business.
Strength
"Jack what was that all about?" Daniel asked the older man.
"Daniel, he thinks he's about to lose the last thing on earth that really means something to him. He didn't want to hurt anyone though." With that he left. There were things that he needed to think over.
"Jonas what's going to happen to me?" San's hoarse voice came out of her pale body. She was getting worst, and quickly.
"I don't know San." Jonas looked away.
"J! Look at me. Tell me what I want to know!" she tried to sound angry, but she couldn't.
"San I don't know! I wouldn't lie to you. Not about this."
Then Dr. Frasier's head poked out from the curtain, "Jonas. Can you come here?" He nodded his head, and followed her.
The doctor had lined up the most recent scans of San's brain on her desk. "What is it?" Jonas asked her.
She pointed her finger at spot on the scans, " See this? I think it's what's making your sister sick. It's right on the brain, and seems to be getting bigger."
"Why didn't you tell me this before? You had just said that it was unknown!" Jonas was getting angry.
She put on a sympathetic look, "Jonas five minutes ago when I said that, I hadn't had these scans, and now that I'm looking at them I think this is why she's sick."
"Oh. I'm sorry."
"I'm going to tell Major Carter, and then I'll take another scan. You can tell her if you want." She motioned to the curtain.
He nodded, and went to tell the only person left in this world, who could understand his pain, that she was about to die.
Daniel and Sam were walking to the commissary to eat, something they really needed to do. "Could we try using a hand device to heal her?"
"No Daniel. I still don't have control of it, but…. Wait!" She turned around and ran off in the other direction!
"What?" Daniel yelled after her, "Some secret you're not telling me about?" Then he went to follow her.
General Hammond was poring over some mission reports that Sg-9 had just handed to him. A knock came at his door, "Enter!"
Major Carter entered the room, a little flustered, "Sir."
"Carter, sit down, breath." He smiled at her. "Major. What is it, that has you so… out of breath?"
Sam sat down, took a deep breath and was about to start explanation when Daniel's voice yelled out, "Jesus Sam! What the hell was that all about?" Right at that moment he realized that he was in the presence of General Hammond, " Oh, General hi. Sam!"
Sam gave him one of her big smiles, "I was just getting to that Daniel, sit down and I'll tell you the story." She then turned and looked at the General, "Well Sir, Daniel gave me the idea actually. He asked why we didn't use a hand device on San, well unless someone else in this facility can use one, then no body on Earth is going to help her."
"Major Carter, what are you getting at?" General Hammond knew that the major could take long explanations with almost everything, no matter what it was. He did not have all day.
She smiled back at him, "The Tok'ra."
"Sam you're a genius."
Hammond looked at Daniel, then back at his best friend's daughter, "We might as well try."
Jonas didn't cry, dad never cried, why should he cry? He wouldn't cry, he couldn't, his sister meant the world to him, and he had to be strong… for her. He wouldn't cry, he'd be strong… or not, he wasn't the rest of his family.
"San." Don't cry, be strong, "You're getting worst, you're going to keep getting worst, until…" He wasn't the rest of his family, he cried.
She looked up at him, and gave him a watery smile, "I know Jonas, I wanted you to tell me though." She started to cry, "But promise me one thing."
"What?"
"Never, ever, break news to me again. You're not very good at." She gave him a big smile.
He started to laugh through his tears, "God San, I love you."
"I love you too." At the moment her eyes rolled into the back of her head, she let out a scream. "Muuumm! Mum wake up! Oh my god, Mum! Mum don't… Mum!"
Jonas knew exactly what was happening, she was reliving the day their mother died. "Dr.Frasier!" The small doctor came running in, she looked at him, "Help her." With that he turned and left the infirmary. Like the man who left before him, he had some thinking to do.
Back in the infirmary, San had calmed down, and was now asleep. Dr. Frasier didn't know how much longer she was going to last.
