Sam's Thoughts

Elvish translations – also if a sentence in elvish is too long I'll just put it in Bold meaning to is in elvish not common.

Last chapter

"How is she?" Jack asked.

The three friends turned to them as they approached.

"She's fine as far as we know." Aragorn told them.

"Why weren't we told she had gone into labor."

"I apologise, everything happened so fast and we didn't think of telling you."

"How long has she been in there?" Daniel asked.

"About 6 hours but we were told it shouldn't be long now." The king said.

As if to prove his point there was a high pitched cry from the other room.

Legolas was the first to reach the door but he still had to wait till the people inside the room opened the door for him.

"What are they doing in there?" he complained when the door didn't open for him.

"They're probably making them more presentable." Jennifer suggested.

"I don't care what they look like I just…"

He was cut off when another cry was heard from the room.

"Did Sam say she was having twins?" Aragorn asked his friend.

"No! She refused to let the midwives do their tests after the last time."

"You can come in now." One of the healers said from the doorway.

Legolas rushed passed, straight to Sam, who was lying in the bed holding one of the new born babies.

"Are you alright."

"Yes I'm fine. Look, it's your son." Sam said pulling back to blanket so he could see his face.

"He's beautiful, just like his mother."

"And here is his sister." Eowyn said as she came up next to them and handed to little girl to her father.

"Congratulations!" Jack said from the door.

"Thank you, Jack. But are you going to stand in the door or are you going to say hello?"

SG-1 entered to room and each looked at the children before stepping back for someone else to see.

After awhile Sam was caught yawning and they were sent out of the room leaving her to sleep and Legolas to watch over his wife and kids.

"I'd like a word with you if possible." Jack said to Aragorn as they left the room.

"Alright let's go to my study."

"What do you want to talk to me about?" Aragorn asked as they sat down in the kings study.

"As far as my superiors are concerned my team has been missing for over 2 weeks and the other teams a few days. Now if we don't go back in the next few days there is no telling what could happen."

"Alright so we will provide you with an escort and some horses to get you back to the Stargate and you can go home."

"But that isn't the only problem. Sam is still a citizen of Earth and because of that she will need to come with us."

"She has just given birth she couldn't possibly travel now."

"I know that and I'm not suggesting that she come now but she knows the rules and she may insist on coming so I would like to know when she could safely travel?"

"Well if she had too she could go the day after tomorrow providing there are no complications."

"Alright I'll talk to Sam later when she wakes up and we can go from there."

"How are you feeling?"

"Tired."

"Wow, Samantha Carter admitting she is tired. Someone get the video camera." Jack said.

"You forget. They haven't been invented here yet." Sam replied as she shifted herself into an upright position in the bed.

"Well I'm sure that Daniel has one somewhere."

"Most likely used all the film on the architecture."

"You're probably right. Oh well." Jack said with a huge fake sigh.

"Alright what do you want?"

"Do I have to a reason to visit my favourite Major?"

"Usually, and I'm not a major anymore."

"Alright, my favourite Princess!"

"Call me that again and I will hit you over the head other a baseball bat."

"What baseball bat? Is there such thing here?"

"No but I can make one for the purpose of hitting you with it."

(A/N. Can someone tell me what the difference, between baseball and softball is? I don't see the point in any sport; it's just a bunch of people, usually guys, throwing a ball at each other, as far as I'm concerned.)

"Alright, fine. As you know Hammond gets rather shitty with people if they don't check in."

"And I'm guessing that you haven't for awhile."

"No we haven't."

"So what has this got to do with me?"

"Well we need to leave and when we get back we will have to tell Hammond about you."

"And Hammond will have to drag me back there."

"Yes."

"So you go now and I will follow later."

"That would work if the rules hadn't changed. We now have to bring you back the minute we find you. So…"

"You've already broken the rules as it is."

"Yeah…"

"Alright, pack your bags and we'll go in the morning." Sam said.

"You've just given birth to two kids that would be a rather stupid thing to do done you think?"

"Jack. I have been through a lot in the last 5 years. I think that I can handle a short horse ride."

"Fine. But what will you tell Legolas?"

"I'll tell him to take Lúthien home to her crabby old Grandfather and I'll be back in a few weeks."

"I can't believe I let you talk me into this." Sam complained. "If the NID caught wind of you on Earth they would have your guts for garters."

"You aren't going any where without me and the twins are too young to leave you." Legolas reasoned.

"I could have taken them to Earth. No one would have known different. They are also underage so they couldn't be harmed."

They were on there way to Mordor, where the Stargate was. It had been decided that Legolas, Lúthien and the twins, Túrelio and Amarië, would come to Earth to meet Sam's father, Jacob.

They were travelling by horse, guided by a group of Gondor's soldiers who were coming also to return the horses to the city.

Sam and Legolas were carrying one of the twins each in slings that Sam had made for Lúthien when she was a baby and they had to go to Lóthlórien to see Galadriel or Gondor to see Aragorn, and the girl had been too small to ride a horse.

Sam was carrying the girl, Amarië while Legolas had Túrelio. Lúthien however had insisted that she ride with Daniel who was having trouble with the horses without a 4 year old distracting him.

They travelled for an hour before the children started to complain. The oldest, because she was bored, and the younger two, because they were hunger. They stopped for awhile before continuing on only to find that the children would complain every two hours or so and they were getting no where.

"If we keep going at this pace we are going to get no where."

"Sam you only gave birth 2 days ago we can't go any faster without risking injury for you or the children."

"As much as that is true I am not going to break if we go into a simple trot, we don't have to walk. We would get there faster on foot at this rate."

"Sam we are getting no where by talking about it."

"Fine then lets do it." Before they could stop her she jumped onto her horse and took off.

"Sam! Come back here." Jack called after her. "How do you put up with her?" he asked Legolas.

"Sometimes you just have to do as she says." The elf said as he followed his wife further into Mordor.

Thanks to skittlz-n-combos for the name Amarië which I am using for the female twin.

Thanks to Lily Tween for the name Túrelio which I am using for the male twin.

Sorry it's a pretty bad chapter.
