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
"Alright Legolas your going as Leo alright?" Sam asked him.
"Yes that's fine."
"Alright Lúthien, while we're here we don't want anyone to know you're a princess or an elf so we're going to call you Cassy OK?"
"Why?"
"Because, Ada (Dad) and Nana (Mum) want to have a day with the family rather them people annoying us all the time. Is that OK?"
"OK Nana."
"Good girl. Lastly the twins, Amarië can be just Marie and Túrelio can be, Thomas."
"Fine with me." Jack said.
"No one asked you, Jack."
"Nana, are we there yet."
"No Cassy but we shouldn't be too long now, why don't you go to sleep and we'll wake you up when we get there."
"Ok Nana." The little girl said before lying back in her seat and going still.
"I have never known a child to sit so still."
"She's asleep what do you expect."
"No, she's not her eyes are open." Jack complained.
"Oh I forgot about that. If anyone sees any of the kids asleep, close their eyes for them." Sam said as she reached over Amarië to close her daughter's eyes.
"OK, so elves sleep with their eyes open."
"Don't worry, it freaked me out the first time I saw it too."
"Yes, I woke up to you sticking your fingers into my neck." Legolas commented.
"I was trying to take your pulse."
"Well you could have tried to wake me first."
"I thought you had fallen out of the tree. You could have broken you back I shaking you would have made it worse."
"Elves do not fall out of trees!"
"Of course not," She replied rolling her eyes.
"So are you ready for the test on Monday?" John asked the group.
"Yeah I shouldn't be too hard." Cassandra replied to her friend.
"I agree with Cass. We know all the calculations so we'll be fine." Bec said confidently.
"Ooo, you guys look at the hottie over there!" Sarah said.
"Where?" Bec asked.
"The guy with the long, blonde hair. He's crouching next to the double pram talking to the little girl."
"Guys he is obviously a Dad so leave him be." John said.
"He's too young to be a dad he can't be older then 19." Sarah retorted.
"Hey look Cass, he's standing with that guy you know. What's his name? John? Jake?"
"Jack."
Cassandra looked around for Jack and spotted him talking to the blonde guy that Sarah had spotted.
"Go and say hi, see if he can introduce us to cutie over there." Bec said pushing her friend to try and get her to stand up.
"No need I think they're coming over here." Sarah said.
Cass stood up as Jack got closer.
"Hey long time no see."
"Yeah you know how busy I can get."
"Yeah sitting on your arse doing nothing all day must be so tiring. Who're your friends?"
"Oh you know Daniel, this is Leo, his kids and you also know Sam."
"Sam?"
"Hey, Cassy, I missed you." Walking over to the shocked girl and hugging her.
"Where have you been?" Cass asked, returning the hug.
"You know I can't tell you that Cassy. What's this about you fighting with your mum?"
"I don't want to talk about it." Cassandra said then turned away to collected her books from the grass where she had been sitting with her friends.
"You know your mum loves you and I don't want you fighting because of me."
"You disappeared and they stopped looking for you!"
"Um Guys, can we go some where quiet to discuss this before you say something your going to regret later." Jack suggested.
"Fine, my flat is a block away we can walk." Cassy said. "I'll see you tomorrow guys."
"Yeah, cya tomorrow Cass,"
"Cya"
"Bye."
They introduced Legolas and the kids to the idea of take out that night at Cassy's house. Legolas hadn't finished his meal, opting instead to wait till breakfast the next morning saying that the meal was disgusting, while Lúthien had love the idea.
Sam had explained as much as she was able to about what had happened to her and had managed to convince Cassandra to contact her mother now that Sam was back.
Finally at 11pm they had said there goodbyes with a promise from Sam that she would visit again before she returned to Middle Earth.
"General Hammond,"
"Selmac, thank you for coming so quickly,"
"How might I be of service?" Selmac asked he the Stargate deactivated behind him.
"SG-1, 3 and 12 when on a mining mission at a planet with a recently erupted volcano, all the teams went missing a week after arriving and 3 days ago they returned. With then they had Major Samantha Carter." Hammond explained.
"She requested that she be able to see her father before she returned to the planet, so we called you."
"Are you sure it is her?"
"Yes we are positive; we were hoping that maybe Sam would be able to pull Jacob out of his shell."
"I hope you are right."
The pair walked through the SGC towards the room where Sam and her family were staying. As they got closer to the room they could hear singing coming from inside, they opened the door to find Sam rocking the twins to sleep in a cradle that they had borrowed for the twins.
May it be an evening star
Shines down upon you
May it be when darkness falls
Your heart will be true
You walk a lonely road
Oh! How far you are from home
Mornie utúlië (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantië (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now
May it be the shadows call
Will fly away
May it be you journey on
To light the day
When the night is overcome
You may rise to find the sun
Mornie utúlië (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantië (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now
A promise lives within you now
Sam continued to rock the twins unaware of the company she had with her. Hammond left the room, leaving it up to Selmac to get Father and daughter back together.
"You have a lovely singing voice Major Carter." He said, drawing her attention away from the children.
"Selmac, how have you been I've missed you," Sam said, standing from her place next to the children to hug the Tok'ra.
"That as you may, I think you missed your father more," he said, smiling down at his host's daughter. "I take it that General Hammond explained your father's reaction to your disappearance?"
"Yeah, he did, though I didn't really believe it, though I suppose as I am talking to you and not him then it is true."
"We are all hoping that your return will prompt him to talk again, this is our final option and the Tok'ra council have been asking me to take a new host, if you can't get him to speak again, I am afraid that I will have to leave him, and that is something I would rather not do."
"I don't think he would want that either," Sam assured him, "let's hope it doesn't come to that."
He smiled at her again then sat down on the bed, motioning for her to join him.
"I am going to force Jacob out and you will need to talk to him, tell him where you've been, and reassure him, anything that might bring him out. I will give you two hours and if he doesn't show any sign of recognition then I will take control again." After making sure that Sam understood, Selmac bowed his head and when it came back up again she was met with a blank stare with no awareness of the world around him.
"Dad? Dad, it's me Sam…please talk to me…I was so worried when Jack told me that you weren't talking to anyone, and everyone else is worried about you too." She got no reaction from the man so she tried again.
"Please dad, I'm sorry that I disappear, I tried to come back but each time I tried something stopped me."
She continued to talk to him for an hour and a half. She told him about what had happened in Middle Earth, what she had done in the past six years and about Legolas and her children. When talking didn't help she decided to bring one of the children over to him to see if that got a reaction.
She retrieved Amarië, who had just woken up and brought her over to her Grandfather.
"Look Dad, this is your granddaughter, Amarië. I want my children to have a proper Grandfather, Thranduil is always busy and they rarely see him, but you can give them at least some time when you're not on missions. Please dad, just one word, anything even if its 'piss off' well that's two words but you know what I mean."
She sat behind him and placed the baby in his lap before wrapping her arms around both of them.
Sam lent her head into his back and closed her eyes, hoping for a miracle. But as she was behind him she didn't see his eyes return to focus and his eyes turn to the child on his lap.
"I never saw you as the type to have kids."
He felt Sam's head shoot up from its place on his back at thee sound of his voice.
"Dad?" she moved around so that she was looking into his eyes. Then she burst out crying.
