Previously on Stargate SG-1
"So we are stuck here" he said quietly looking around the barren land around them
And now the continuation
"We are not alone Daniel Jackson"
"What?"
"On the ship, I overheard someone say that there was a small village near our descent. I believe us to be about three days from the village"
"Nice"
"We should leave now" Lena said firmly
"Why is that?" Daniel asked
"So we won't get hit by that" she said pointing to some debris fallingheaded rightfor them.
They ran
"She could have escaped!"
"She promised not too!"
"What is the promise of a woman" he scoffed
She glared at him "I have never proken my word Ten'ak. You can not say the same thing!"
He flushed "You're right, I'm sorry Sari"
"I wouldn't have let her go" she said earnestly
He nodded
Jack sighed. The Tok'ra had just called. Their snake head was around 4 or so days from the planet, once there, they would first re-scan the planet, which would take about two or three days then search for the 'mythical' technology. They hadn't heard a word from Daniel or Teal'c and that Tok'ra person. He muttered something nasty about the Tok'ra and headed back to his office.
"Come on, we have a long way to go" Lena said picking up Daniel's backpack and tossing it to him.
Daniel stared "We almost got brained by a sarcohagus"
She rolled her eyes
"I agree with Lena, we must go and attempt to find that village" Teal'c said placing his 'pack on his back
"Samantha?"
Sam looked up from her backpack "Ten'ak" she acknowledged
"What are you doing?"
"None of your buisness" she said emptying all the pockets of her backpack on to her bed
"Why aren't you wearing the gowns we provided"
Sam didn't look up "I don't like them" she said "They are over there"
"You are wearing men's clothes, That is not acceptable"
Sam looked up "Tough"
Ten'ak bit his lap "Do you require anything?"
"My freedom?"
"That is not an option!"
She shrugged "I guess not" she said looking at the assorted items. "More stuff here then I thought" she muttered
"Samantha, look at me"he ordered
She didn't "Hey, I even have a water soaked chocolate bar! gross!" she said tossing it on the table
"Samantha!"
She laughed, a humorless laugh "Go away Ten'ak, I'm busy"
The man stared at her, his face filled with fury then obeyed.
As the door shut, she held up a small pocket knife and screwdriver "Let's see if I can do anything with this" she muttered
Hours later...
"Sam?" Sari asked. Her friend was just sitting on the bed staring at the ground.
Sam looked up "Hey Sari"
"What's the matter?" she asked sitting next to her
"Me"
Sari stared at her
"I'm not acting like me" she explained "I cry, I uh.. I'm just not acting like myself" she said "Normally, I'd be pitching a fit, trying to find a way out and instead, I lie on my bed and whine"
"Is there a possiblity you are with child?"
Sam looked startled "No, no, I haven't uh, no"
Sari shrugged "You told me when we were in the Maga, that the sarcohagus took away something of yourself. Would that have somethin to do with it?"
Sam considered that "I doubt it" she said slowly "I mean I guess it's possible"
"Well, it appears you are getting 'you' back"
"Why do you say that?" Sam asked with a little smile
"Ten'ak says you are being gochi"
"Gochi?"
"I think you would say... free spirited?"
'Independent?"
"Yes"
Sam hid a grin
"I have to go, Ten'ak said I couldn't say long" Sari said sounding disappointed
Sam nodded "Ok, see you later?"
Sari nodded
The next day and a half passed slowly. Lena and Daniel were extremely fatigued but Teal'c kept pushing them forward, saying he felt uneasy about something. Daniel had come to 'respect' his instincts so plodded on. Sam spent it carving a hole under her bed. That night, she was going to escape...
It was a dark and cloudy night. Sam pushed the big dirt clod out. It landed on the soft grass with a soft thud. She peeked her head out. No one was coming. She crept out
"Daniel Jackson, do you see that?"
"Yeah, looks like smoke"
"I believe we are getting near the village"
'Does that mean we can stop for a bit?" Daniel asked darting a quick glance at Lena. The girl hadn't complained but she was obviously tired.
Teal'c nodded
Lena sighed with relief "Sit, I'll prepare dinner"
"What are we having?"
Lena squinted at the package she held "It came from your backpack, it says 'Macaroni and Cheese'"
Sam hadn't gotten far when she heard shouts. Knowing they had discovered she'd gone, she began to run
Lena spat out her first bite of her Mac'N'Cheese "This is most unappetizing" she said frowning at it
"Well, it's that or nothing"
The girl glared at him but picked the packet back up and forced another bite into her mouth
"It's your fault Sari, you helped her!"
"No, I didn't, I swear Ten'ak!"
A second later, a girl screamed
Sam paused and peeked around the tree. Ten'ak was obviously very angry and taking it out on his sister
"You helped her you little traina!"
Sam had no idea what that meant but by the way Sari reacted it, it wasn't very good.
Ten'ak was about to strike her when Sam sprang forward
"Leave her alone!" she cried
Ten'ak spun around "Samantha" he said surprised
"Sari didn't help me, if you want some one to beat up, fine, pick me, but leave her alone"
"I would never hurt you" he whispered coming closer
Sari gave Sam a look full of gratitude as she stood up "Ten'ak, should we not call off the-"
"Silence!"
Sari fell silent
"Bring her to your hut Sari" he ordered
Sari, trembling, began to obey
"Wait" he said quietly
Both women turned to him
"If you try to escape again Samantha, I will have Sari killed"
"Ten'ak!" Sari screamed
"That is what I decree! Take her away"
Sari released her hold on Sam "Run!" she screamed
With a swift move, Ten'ak shot them both with a zat'nik'itel
Kayan stared. What appeared to be part of a mother ship drifted around his ship. He picke dup his long distance communicator "Garwin?"
"Sir, recieving Tok'ra audio transmission"
"Play it" Jack ordered
"This is the Tok'ra"
"O'Neill speaking"
"We have a message from Kayan. He believe that Anubis's mothershiphas been destroyed"
"And why is that?"
"He is very near Niyana, about an earth day, he discovered much debris floating around. Closer examination revealed it was from a Goa'uld mother ship"
"What wasAnubis doing near that planet?" Jack demanded
"We don't know"
"Anything on Teal'c and Daniel?"
"I'm afraid not"
Jack sighed "Thank you"
The gate deactivated.
"Sam?"
"Call me Carter, I'm starting to hate the name Sam" she mumbled sitting up. "Whoa, it's dark" she commented "Where are we?"
"This is Ten'ak's house. We are in his private quarters" Sari said
"Wow, it's big"
"Yeah" Sari paused "Sa-Carter, I'm so sorry, I thought Ten'ak could make you happy but now, he- I"
Sam shushed her "Come on" she said getting up and offering a Sari hand
"What?"
"We have to find a way out!"
Is Sam more in character? Anyways, hope you liked it.. nervous grin>
