Chapter 4

( Sam's POV)

Pain. That was the first thing that assulted Colonel Carter's senses when she opened her eyes to a thatched roof and log walls. Apparently she was still with Bastet.

"Damn." Her radio and all her gear was gone, but that was to be expected. The Goa'uld were far from fools, and had learned about the Tau'ri's weaponry long ago. Carter surveyed her surroundings, and got to her feet to test the structural integrity of her prison.

She couldn't reach the ceiling, and there were no windows she could get out of. The only door was made of solid wood, and she knew for a fact that there would be guards posted outside.

Soon enough, the door opened and a jaffa guard came in and pulled her to her feet. "Bastet wishes for you to join her for her evening meal." He said, grabbing her arm and yanking her with him to the door.

"She wishes, does she?" Sam muttered darkly, as they entered the Goa'uld's tent. Bastet looked the picture of a goddess in loose golden pants and a low cut golden tunic embroidered with cats.

The guard left, and Sam stood with her arms crossed. "What do you want?" She asked. "I want the codes to open your iris. If you igce it to me, your death will be quick and painless. If you do not, it will be long and excruciatingly painful. It is your choice."

"What a choice. How about you just let me go? My friends will come for me and kill you." Sam replied, smirking.

"I think not. Remember, you do this to yourself, Tau'ri." She reached out with her ribbon device and resumed her torure.

Jack's POV

Jack followed Daniel and Teal'c to the infirmiry, and managed to wait until they were deemed healthy before bombarding them with questions.

"What do you mean, 'We do not know'? How could you not know?" he asked, working to keep the emotion out of his voice. He was terrified, thoughts of what could be happening to her running circles around his mind.

"The goa'uld-" Daniel started, but Jack interrupted. "Goa'uld? WHAT goa'uld?" he snapped, face going red.

"Bastet." Teal'c said, taking the thermometer out of his mouth and throwing it into the trash can when the nurse wasn't looking. "She took Colonel Carter and put Daniel Jackson and I into a cell. We did not see Colonel Carter again. An explosion hit the camp, and Daniel Jackson and I seized the opportunity to escape. We did not see Colonel Carter. I am sorry, O'Neill. I will return to the planet with SG-3 in search of Colonel Carter."

Daniel sat up." Me, too." Jack smiled greatfully at his friends. "Thanks, but you won't be under Makepeace. You'll be with me. NO way I'm trusting those jarheads with my fiance's life." He checked his watch.

"Nurse! Are you done with them?" She nodded. "Can they go offworld again?" She nodded again. "Good. Let's go." The General and the remainder of SG-1 went to suit up.

Daniel's POV

Poor Jack. Even though he would never admit it, he was terrified for Sam. Hell,Daniel wasn't even marrying her and he was terrified for her.

Bastet, who happens to be the cat goddess, captured SG-1 three years ago, and had developed a serious hate for Sam. Jakc could never could figure out why, but Daniel had an idea.

Bastet had a crush on Jack, and when she had realized how jack felt about Sam, had formed a vendetta against the Major.

Flashback

Three years ago...

SG-1 was on a naquada retrieving mission to P3X 979, a known Goa'uld occupied world. Tok'ra intel had said that there was going to be a load of the precious metal being sent through the gate at 13:00 Zulu, and General Hammond had seen it as an opportuinity that couldn't be missed.

"Excited that you're going to get some batteries for your toys, Carter?" O'Neill had teased, and Carter just laughed. The team stepped through the gate, zats at the ready.

They came out on the other side, expecting a small guard. They were confronted with a battallion of Jaffa warriors, armed to the teeth, with staff weapons pointed.

"Never trust a snake." jack muttered. "Hi, we must have the wrong address. We'll just dial home, and be on our- or we could go with you." They were marched to Bastet's tent.

"Tau'ri. How do you like my new planet?" She had asked, eyeing Jack with an aproving glint. Jack had ignored it. "I'd like it alot better from my side of the gate, ma'am. How about you let me and my team go?"

She had just shook her head. "I think not. Jaffa, take these two away." The guards had pulled Daniel and Teal'c from the tent, leaving Jack and Sam with the goa'uld.

"You, you are the leader, are you not?" jack nodded. "You want to get your team off of this planet?" Jack nodded, guardedly. She reached out her hand, offering him a zat. "If you shoot this one, I will let the Shol'va and the one with glass circles covering his eyes go."

"Are you insane? There's no way in hell I'd shoot Carter." He sneered, and the goa'uld's eyes glowed.

"You doom yourself." She pulled out her ribbon device, putting it over Sam.

Present time

Jack's POV

SG-1 filed into the gate room, ready to embark and see what had happened to the camp. Jack closed his eyes, saying a silent prayer to whoever might be listening to keep his love safe.

"MALP telemetry is go, sir." Walter said. Jack nodded to him. "Let's go." He said briskly, all Air Force general once again. He shut down his feelings, because he knew that if he kept them shoved down, they wouldn't sqrew up his ability to do his job.

If he let himself feel, he just might get someone killed.
