2. Making Out
Slowly Jack approached the settlement. He tried to stay out of the Jaffa's sight, since he knew exactly what would happen in case they caught him here.
Quietly he sneaked around the buildings finally crouching behind one of the cottages.
Now he had to figure out how to find Sam in this place. For awhile he just sat there pondering what to do; but in the end he did not even need a plan...
He heard the familiar sound of Sam's laughter echoing from somewhere not far away. He glanced around the house's corner and there she stood, in the middle of the sandy square and she was not alone: somebody Jack knew a little too well from their battles was with her holding her hand.
An uneasy feeling completely grasped him. What was going on here? How was Sam involved into it and why?
Anger began to simmer deep inside of him making his emotion erupt:
Damn,Jack cursed under his breath, why him? Why Her'ak?
He tried to convince himself that this was not true and that Sam was not doing it willingly.
As two Jaffa crossed the cottage Jack quickly slid behind it again. He felt completely miserable having seen Sam, his Sam, holding hands with the enemy. The mere thought of it nauseated him.
No.
It was clear to him that he had to end this by getting Sam away from Anubis's first prime. But how should he even get close to her unseen? He had to think of a solution quickly.
Finally Jack came to the conclusion that it would be easiest to get to her at night when it was dark. So he tried his best to make himself comfortable in his hiding-out while waiting for dusk.
In the evening hours Jack left the hiding quietly walking toward the back of the place he had earlier spotted to be Sam's shelter.
Quickly he entered through one of the windows. He had a glance around and finally he found her alone in the small bedroom.
"Sam", he whispered into the semi-darkness.
After a moment she drew aside the thin curtain separating the bed from the rest of the room.
"Jack?" she asked timidly.
"Yeah", he neared her slowly.
"What are you doing here?"
"I could ask you the same question", he returned. "Hammond has told me that I would find you here."
A tear ran down Sam's cheek. "I should have told you that myself. But I didn't have the courage."
"It's okay", Jack approached further trying to embrace her, but she drew away. "What's going on here and what are you doing with..."
"Her'ak?" he spun around seeing the Jaffa standing by the door. He came toward them quickly dashing right for Jack. Jack felt his blood froze and he felt immobile unable to get away.
"No!" Sam called and indeed he managed to stop him by it.
He built up by her side inquiring, "Samantha are you all right?" to Jack's great surprise he seemed to be really concerned about her, "Or has that bastard caused you any harm?"
Her'ak's eyes pierced him and Jack's heart sank. He knew that he was in immediate danger to be caught, now and he know what would be the consequences for him. But even though his legs were not able to make a single move. He could not just leave Sam alone with Her'ak.
Shivering inwardly he anticipated the things that would happen next...
Whoops, was that too fast again? I hope it wasn't.
Though I've planned the first chapters to be a bit quicker, because there'll follow a lot of really slow stuff after it.
This means from next post on. CU soon,
