Oops I forgot to do my disclaimer…tsk tsk tsk….

I do not own any of the characters, except for Lyana/Kari, Kara, Korey, and the Bellatres, everything else belongs to MGM.

(sorry for making the first chapter so short, I wanted to get it up and running first.)

"Daddy! Daddy!" Col. Jack O' Niell turned around fast enough to catch his running daughter up into his arms.

"And just what do you think you're doing missy? Aren't you supposed to be taking a nap?"

Six year old Kari O'Neill shook her head emphatically, "Mommy said that I could get up earlier cause you were coming home!"

"She did?" he asked playfully.

"Mm-hm." And then she added thoughtfully, "She also said something about you always being away so long, and something about a donkey's butt…"

Jack laughed heartily. "She did, did she? Well I'll have to talk to her about that, where's your brother?"

She rolled her eyes annoyed, "He's digging up dirt in the back yard, again, he says he wants to be an archaeologist when he grows up, but I want to be just like you daddy!

"Well let's go see him huh?" Jack suggested, not exactly happy to hear that. Kari only nodded

Ten years later

Jack's cell phone started ringing on his way home, he was late again, Kari was going to kill him, he picked it up and stated annoyingly "What?"

An unfamiliar male voice spoke back over the phone. "Is this Colonel O'Niell?"

"Yes who is this?"
"I'm Sgt. Mueller from the F.B.I. sir, I'm afraid I have some bad news."

"F.B.I.? what'd you guys want?"

There was a pause on the other end. "Well I'd rather explain this in person sir, but seeing as how you're out of the area—"

"I'm on my way home now sergeant, what is it?"

"Maybe it'd be better if you came to Denver Hospital sir."

"Denver Hospital, why?"

"It's your family sir, they've been attacked."

"WHAT?"

"Sir, you're wife, she's dead."

"No, you've got to have the wrong person. My wife is supposed to be at a concert for my kids right now."

"Sir, her this occurred in your house, her i.d. was in her purse, however you're children weren't here sir, we still haven't been able to locate them."

"Kara…" he whispered incoherently.

"Colonel?" the sergeants voice came over the phone questioningly, "Are you alright?"

"Yes, I'll be right there Sergeant." He stated resuming his military hardness.

He hung up. Kara dead. Kari, Korey what about them? They were waiting for him, that's what must've happened. Dang it! This was all his fault. If he had been there, this wouldn't have happened.

"Jack. Earth to Jack. JACK!"

Jack snapped out of his reverie only to be facing Daniel. "Jack are you ok?"

Jack looked annoyingly at Daniel. "Yes Daniel I'm fine. Of course I'm fine. After all I found out that my daughter, who I thought was dead for ten years, was actually alive and living on another planet!"

"Okay…." Daniel said backing off, "But Jack, how come you never even mentioned anything about her, or the fact that you had a wife before Sara?"

"Because I didn't ok? Let's go,we leave in ten." Jack stated flatly slamming his locker shut and headed out the door.

"Well, at least we know he's still Jack." Daniel said to no one in particular.

"Indeed." Teal'c replied.

On the Planet

After the team had gone through the gate, Daniel had discovered a whole bunch of columns with the Ancient's writing on it. And of course he was babbling on to everyone how important this could be to civilization on earth. "Alright Daniel you and Teal'c stay here. Carter you're with me." Jack ordered headed towards the forest a fifty yards in front of them.

"Yes sir." Carter said worriedly.

But before they had even made it to the forest line they were surrounded on all sides by amazon-looking women wearing leather pelts, pointing lethal-looking crossbows at them. "What do you think you are doing here Tari? Did not our Protectress warn you that if you came here again we would kill you?" One of the women stepped forward and spoke.

"As a matter of fact yes she did, but we would like to talk to your Protectress first." Jack spoke warningly, holding his automatic towards the speaker.

"I am Prianna, Commander of the Queen's army. You are invading Bellatre territory, turn back now, before we kill you."

"Let us speak with the Protectress first, we had a miscommunication."

"There are no miscommunications when it comes to the Protectress. What do you want with her?"

Jack paused before stating, "She's my daughter."

That caused a whirlwind of whispering on the twenty warriors surrounding them. "Silence!" Prianna commanded and everyone went dead silent again. "Lady Lyana does not have a father. Nor does she need one. Leave now."

"Not until I see her." Jack proclaimed adamantly.

"Over my dead body."

"Wait!" Daniel, ever the ambassador, cried. "Now there must be some sort of comprimise we can come upon. Say two of us will go back and two can go."

"No. Either you all go or you all die. Choose now."

"Prianna, one of them is a Jaffa." A younger warrior announced warily.

Prianna turned to Teal'C, "You are Teal'C the schovah who betrayed Apophis, are you not?"

"I am." Teal'c stated proudly.

"Then he cannot be harmed, unless of course he tries to harm us. Is that clear Bellates?" Prianna ordered.

"Yes, Prianna." Echoed every warrior.

"Look," began Jack, "I just want to see her. Once I talk to her we'll leave, if you still want us to leave, ok?"

Prianna eyed them questioningly. "Very well, however you must disarm youselves, no weapons are to be permitted when in conference with the Lady Protectress."

Jack eyed his team carefully, "Fine."

In the City

They had been blindfolded and led through the thick forest. After two hours they were finally taken off and the team looked on what looked to be a poverty stricken village, rather than a city. Young children playing around in the streets, stopped and looked at the strangers coming into the village. They began whispering and then ran back to their homes in excitement or fright. They were led to the largest tent, where Prianna conversed with a warrior who appeared to be guarding it. Daniel said it was the language of the Ancients. Prianna then led them to a slightly smaller tent, that when they entered appeared to be some sort of hospital. She again conversed with another woman who pointed and looked at sg-1 appraisingly.

Prianna then took them farther back where a young woman was caring for a small child, who looked quite sick and was frightened out of her mind. The woman was speaking softly to her trying to calm her while rubbing her skin with some kind of potion.

When Jack was about to say something Prianna silenced him with a death glare.

After almost five minutes the girl finally fell asleep and the woman put the concoction aside and stood facing them. Jack took a quick intake of breath. It was Kari, he was definitely sure of it now. The woman looked at SG-1 and her gaze stopped with Jack. She gave him an icy cold glare that could freeze even the hottest of fires. She then turned to Prianna, and spoke irratedly at her, in the Ancient language. Prianna then left apparently dismissed. The woman, who everyone assumed to be Kari looked back at the team. "I gave your people an explicit warning never to return. You ignored it. I will overlook it this time, however I will not be so lenient again. You are to return through the stargate immediately and never return. Is that clear?"

Jack took a step forward, "Kari? Don't you remember me?"

Kari took on the same icy glare that she had before, "Kari is dead. She has been dead for ten long years. I am what's left of her. Now you will return through the stargate immediately or be put to death."
"Kari what's the matter with you? I'm your father for peades sake."

"My father? Right. Then let me ask you this. Where was my father when my mother was being raped and killed right before my eyes? Where was my father when my brother and I were being kidnapped and taken to some distant planet that we had no idea even existed? Where was my father when I was all alone and in pain? Hmmm? Where was he? At work? On "business trips"? Please. We both know where his priorities lied."

Jack shook his head. "Kari, please I am so sorry about that, I tried to get there as fast as I could but—"

"But what? You were at work. Where you always were. Where you were when we needed you! It sickens me to think that I ever wanted to be like you." She spat, "Now I am going to give you one more chance, go back through the stargate and never return. Or you will die."
