Stranded
Chapter 1: Darkness
"From the ruins we can deduct that this was a planet previously inhabited by the Gou'ld. It has traces of naquida, miniscule. My guess is that when the supply ran out, the Gou'ld left." Daniel Jackson's voice broke through the drone in O'Neal's head. And ordinary mission, no fighting, no strange devices, in other words boring.
"What about the locals? Were they friendly?" General Hammond asked.
"Yes, for the most part the were quite happy to welcome us. I would however like to go back."
O'Neal was shocked. Go back? What mre could they want to do? "Daniel?" General Hammond said. He sounded just as shocked.
"Sir, there was a temple there with some strange inscriptions on it. We didn't have time to finish decifering them. It may lead us to one of the naquida mines on other planets. We could put a serious dent in their resources." It was Carter who spoke this time. O'Neal gave her a look.
Although she couldn' hear him, she knew what it meant. Hoow coul you betray me like that? We only just got back from that place!
"Alright, go to the infirmary and get checked out. If all's clear you can leave tomorrow. Dissmissed." Jack stayed behind to talk with the General.
"You can't be serious sir. We have to go bac to look at some rocks?"
"If it reveals the location of another Naquida mine it could be of some use."
"But sir..."
"Enough. Go to the infirmary. We'll disscuss it later."
The Next Day...
"You're going to pay for this one monkey-man." Jack said through gritted teeth.
"Jack, do you even know the extent of what we caould do if we find what we're looking for?"
"They're rocks Daniel."
"Sir, if we find this Naquida it could lead us to some of the prime planets inhabited by the Gou'ld."
"I concur with Major Carter." Teal'c said without emotion.
"Me entire team's against me."
It wasn't long before they reached the town. The Chief Councillor, Kaemon Sha'vloc greeted them openly.
"Greetings, Tauri of Earth. We did not expect you t visit us so soon."
"Neither did I Kaemon." Jack said, his voice dripping sarcasm.
"Colonel!" Hissed Sam. "Pleasure to see you again Chief Councillor Sha'vloc."
"Come, come. We shall hold a feast in you honour."
"That really isn't necessary..." Daneil started.
"No please, we wish to honour our guests." He led them to the centre of the village. "Wait here, my men will bring you food and drink. Rest for now."
The Chief Councillor left quickly. Jack walked a few laps around the group in frustration.
"Stop, sir." He looked at Carter. "You're making me dizzy."
"I don't like this. We came to look at rocks -"
"- artifacts -"
"not feasts! The sooner we leave the better."
"We're not exactly in any danger, sir. It wont hurt to stay here for a while."
"Something's not right. I'm going to ake a walk." With that, he stalked off.
"Jack he told us to wait!"
"I'll go after him." Sam sighed andwalked after her CO, muttering something about impatient males.
"Only a small amount. We don't want to kill them."
"Are you sure about this?"
"Anubis will be greatly releaved to have them. He will honour us."
"Should we not just kill them? It would be simpler."
"No! They need to be alive for interrogation."
"Very well. Bring them their drinks."
"Sir, you really shouldn't have..."
"Sh!" Jack cut her off. He listened for a bit longer but the unknown voices had stopped speaking.He picked up his radio and called Daniel. "Danny-boy, head out to the Stargate. Don't wait up, go straight through."
"Jack, whats going on?"
"They're about to poison you. We'll join you in a second." He flicked off his radio and looked at his 2IC. "I told you something was wrong about this. Let's head out."
They moved as quickly and quietly as they could towards the 'gate. Sam was tense, no way would they be letting them leave this easily if the were about to jump the gun and poison them. How did Jack know what was going on?
They had nearly reahed the 'gate. She could see Daniel and Teal'c dialing up, ready to go. What were the locals planning? As if reading her thoughts, Sam heard shots coming from behind. She ducked instinctivly and began firing her Zat at the shooters.
"Get to the 'gate!" Jack yelled. He had used the same technique of duck and fire as Sam.
"No, I'm not leaving you on your own." Looking she saw Daniel and Teal'c firing as they jumped into a pool of blue.
"Go, that's an order. If you don't leave now you might not have time."
"I'll take that risk." They continued firing as the pool of blue dissapeared. Both began making their way towards the stargate, crouched low to avoid fire. There was a rustle behind them.
"Carter!" Sam heard her CO yell before the men grabbed her.
