Chapter 10 Court Martials


Jack found Sam reading in her room. He knocked and went in.

"Hey Sir, I thought you had work to do?"

"Nah that crap can wait."

She laughed.

"Cater?"

"Yes, Sir?"

"Who was that really? In here?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Because she wasn't on file"

Sam got nervous. What was she going to say? That the lieutenant in question was actually not one, but the crystal that Crystal has giving her? Damn, how was she gunna get out of this one?

"Did I hear you say it right? Did you say Lieutenant Thrift?" He persisted.

"I-uh" She started.

Knock, Knock, Knock. Sam was relieved of the distraction at the door. It was Sapphire. Just what you guys needed. The person in question.

"Uh, Hi Lieutenant what can I do for you?"

"The general would like to speak with you and Colonel O'Neill right now" You said noticing the look Sam was giving you.

"Ok tell him we'll be there in a minute"

Once the coast was clear you turned invisible and followed Jack and Sam to the Briefing room.

"Sit Down" The general ordered once you got in there. Everyone sat down while you sat right smack dab in the middle of the table.

"Now I'll get straight to the point. Somewhere on this base is a person who is acting as a USAF Lieutenant. Reports say that she goes by the name 'Sapphire Thrift'. We do not know her reasons for being her. I want Sg-1 to find her and bring her to me."

A chorus of "Yes Sir"'s went around the table.

"Have any of you heard of this?"

Sam tried to fake a "No this is a surprise to me" look, knowing full well Jack would tell.

"No Sir" He finally said. Sam stared then snapped back to the dismissed room. They had gotten out of the room Sam stopped Jack.

"Why didn't you say anything to Hammond?"

"Because... because we've worked together for how many years now? about 7? And I've learned that you would have to have a very good reason to lie about something or even keep a secret about who someone is not. I know you know where and who this Lieutenant Thrift is. Just lemme ask this one thing, Do you have a good reason to lie?"

Sam thought about it.

"I do" She said.

"That's all I need to know" Jack said as he stalked off. You appeared as the same lieutenant as before.

"Wow that was deep and understanding even for him" You said, both of you staring at the last spot you saw him.

Sam was soon talking to Janet and 'looking' for you. You were thinking a lot about this maybe you should tell the General about you before he locks down the base because of you. the Sirens blared. Someone had saw and reported you. Shoot. You turned into a different Lieutenant and Knocked on the General's office. Surprisingly he was there.

"Come In"

You did.

"General" You said doing a good imitation of a lieutenant officer.

"At ease, and please sit down."

You did so.

"Now what did you come here for?"

You hesitated. You then decided to walk out and you should have never come in. apparently, Hammond noticed the look on your face.

"Why did you come to see me? From the way your acting it must be important"

'you have no idea ' you thought. you took a deep breath.

"Call of the lock down"

He looked surprised, not what he thought you were going to say.

"Why Lieutenant?"

"Stop calling me Lieutenant, cause I'm not one"

A look came over his face as he reached for the phone on his desk.

"Don't" You said and you reached for your hand but he got there first and got security in there. Soon you where being pulled to a holding cell, sure you could have escaped but you weren't going to, not when Jack or Daniel could then get Sam in trouble or even Janet for that matter. Oh you also saw her too, you banged your head on the bed so much, and you got a concussion. After trying to sleep for a bit Hammond, along with Sg-1 entered your cell.

"Who are you?" Hammond asked. You didn't say. You didn't want to show yourself but you didn't want them to know either

"Answer him!" Jack barked. You still said nothing, you weren't going to tell them anything since Hammond didn't even let you explain in his office. Clearly you wouldn't the one telling them, you looked at Sam, so did everyone else.

"Major do you know who this is." Hammond barked along with Jack. She glanced at you. You gave a slight nod.

"Yes" She said meekly.

"Is this true?" Hammond said to nearly anyone. You stood up still in your lieutenant form.

"Yes she knew! I was the one who saved her from death! I was the one who saved you from that system lord attack about 2 years ago. It was me! I asked her and Janet-"

"Doc?" Jack asked.

"What!" Hammond was red now. Redder then Red.

"Yes She found out along with Sam who I was! I made them promise to not tell anyone who I was! And when you ordered this lockdown I even Came to you General, I Came to your office and I was going to explain myself, who I was, but screw that! I should have NEVER came here or followed SG-1 around. OR even save Sam! I'm outta here" You said anger building. You also felt your energy levels rise. You could knockout every single person in this room and all of them in the base if you wanted to.

"And where do you think you going?" Hammond asked.

"Off this crap planet I don't know why I stayed." You said as you turned invisible, and sent a small energy barrier through the group to make it look like you left. Despite how much you now hated humans, Sam and Janet were your friends you weren't about to leave them, you touched Sam's arm to let her know you were there still and she nodded also acting like you had left, but with a glint of happiness that her new/old friend was still here.

"Sam you really did know about the girl didn't you" Daniel asked. She nodded her head.

It was two days since Sapphire's 'Get-Away'. Hammond was asking Sam and Janet about her but both wouldn't tell them anything. You made them promise not to say anything.

Although at the end of the Second day and the Court Marshal getting nearer, the only thing to get them both out of it was you let yourself get captured again, things were not looking good. Although Jack, Daniel and Teal'c decided to back you guys. Hammond was also turning to your side.

Finally you had enough of the looks for Sam and Janet when they walked the halls. You told Sam and Janet that you would be in the Gate room in one hour, and you were going to activate the Stargate and make it look like you had come back to possible save them from the Courts.
