The girl slammed a kick into the Jaffa's stomach causing him to release the boy who then ran to the other side of the ramp. "See I told ya, Carter," Jack started, as the girl punched the Jaffa again. "She has it covered." She then imbedded her knife into his stomach killing him. "Okay,
that's impressive"
"If you say so, Sir." The girl got the Jaffa to the floor and turned her attention back to the other Jaffa to see that one was pointing his staff weapon at the boy. "Or not"
"Ethan!" the girl yelled, as she threw herself between the boy and the Jaffa, taking the full force of the staff weapon to her chest. She fell to the ramp with a thud at the boy's feet. "Ouch, that hurt"
"Ouch, that hurt?" Jack mouthed to Carter as they started forward to help the children out. "Who says that"
"Apparently, she does, Sir." Carter's eyes searched the girl's chest for injuries and found none. "She doesn't even appear all that much hurt"
"Jesse," he cried out, as he dropped down to her side. "Don't you dare leave me"
"I won't leave you, Eth," she whispered, as she sat up. "That wasn't very nice of you." The Jaffa just smirked and took aim at them again. "I wouldn't do that if I was you"
"Why not?" the Jaffa asked her, as he armed his weapon. "It will be an honor to kill you both"
"Because you'll be dead before you take that shot"
"I don't think so." A smirk than crossed Jesse's face along with Ethan's.
"You're so wrong." Jesse sprang to her feet and was at her side before the Jaffa blinked. "Now it's time for you to say good night"
"What?" the Jaffa asked, before Jesse slammed him the ground, knocking him out. She grabbed onto his staff weapon and shot the other Jaffa before he could move to attack them.
"Night." She then shot a glance over at the boy. "Eth, you okay"
"I'm fine, Jesse," he said as he got to his feet and looked around. "What is this place"
"I don't recognize it," Jesse said, as she turned to face the gate only to have the iris shut. "But I have a good idea where"
"We're home?" Ethan went up to touch the iris only to get a shock from it. "This doesn't look like home"
"Well not exactly home"
"What do you mean?" Ethan turned to face her with a curious look in her eyes. "I don't follow you"
"Look over there." Ethan looked over to see Jack and Sam standing by the door. "Do you remember who those people are"
"Mom and Dad?" He turned to face Jesse. "I thought they were dead"
"If they are alive, they're not dead. That means we're not in our time"
"How did that happen?" He ran his hand through his short brown hair. "Why did this happen"
"I have no idea"
"How do we get home? We have to warn them about the attack"
"I know." Jesse ran a hand across her face rubbing at the scar on her right cheek. "Do you think we'll ever get home?" Ethan looked up at her with extreme fear in his eyes.
"I don't know, Ethan. We'll come to that bridge when we get to it"
"Okay, Carter, let's go introduce ourselves," Jack said, as they started up the ramp, only to have the girl quickly turn to face them. "Hi, how are ya"
"We're fine," Jesse said, as she rested using the staff weapon for balance. "What year is this"
"2000," Carter said, as she came up to look at them. "Do we know you? You look so familiar"
"Yes, you should know us," Ethan began, as he stepped towards Carter. "You can't even recognize your own children"
"Our what?" Both Carter and O'Neill asked, as Ethan took a step back into Jesse, who put an arm around his shoulder. "You want to fill us in"
"We're your children from the future. We were sent back through time by some fluke. In our time, we were running for our lives from Apophis. Those were some of his Jaffa that came through with us. We thought we would be lucky enough that they would be killed by the force field once we came through the gate. Unfortunately for us, we aren't in our own time, so there was no force field, so they were able to follow us"
"Right," Jack said, as he turned to face Carter. "This make any sense to you at all, Carter"
"A little, Sir." She then shot a glance over at them. "We should have Janet check them out just to be sure"
"Okay." The doors then opened as five armed guards came through. "Take care of the Jaffa, we got the kids. Come on, we're going to take you to see the doctor. She's a really nice lady"
"You're going to take us to see Cassie's mom?" Ethan asked, as they followed them out into the corridor. "Wow, we get to meet Cassie's mom, Jesse. Isn't that great"
"Yeah, Ethan. It's great. I just wish that Cassie could have been with us. I'm sure she would have loved to meet her mom"
"What do you mean by that?" Carter asked, as they got into the elevator.
"I can't say anything more"
"Fine. Now who were you running from again"
"Apophis"
"What"
"Yeah, he's a really bad guy," Ethan said, as they got off the elevator and headed for the infirmary. "Him and the others"
"What others?" Jack asked, as they walked into the infirmary.
"Ethan, don't say anymore," Jesse snapped at him, as she turned to come face to face with Janet. "Oh, dear Lord." She then collapsed to the floor along with Ethan. "This can't be happening." Then their worlds went black as they slipped into unconsciousness.
