"UNSCEDUALED OFF-WORLD ACTIVATION!" Walter yelled into the intercom.

Daniel and Teal'c, each holding a twin, came running into the control room. "Do we have an IDC?" The archeologist asked as he put a squirming Johnny down on the floor.

"Not yet, Dr. Jackson," the technician replied. A few seconds later, "We're getting the Tok'ra IDC, sir."

"Open the iris!"

The titanium cover for the Stargate slid open, moments before two women, man and child stepped through the event horizon. A cold sweat covered Daniel's face as he looked at the woman – it was Athena.

The military group that was in the embarkation room all had their weapons pointed at the woman, and her companions. She held up her hands to show that no device was placed on them, and waited patiently as Teal'c and Daniel entered the room with Thora and Johnny close behind.

Thora squealed with delight and ran to her honorary aunt, jumping into her arms. Johnny just walked up slowly and started tugging on Sophia/Athena's robe.

"Aunty, Aunty!" The twins cried. "Mommy's gonna have another baby!"

Sophia smiled warmly, "She is, is she? And how do you know this?"

Johnny grinned, very satisfied with himself, "We could sense it!"

Sophia's eyes glowed, showing that Athena was now in control of the body. "We did not do that to them," she told a worried Daniel as she set Thora down next to her brother.

"What do you mean you didn't do that to them? And why the hell are you here?"

Athena continued calmly, "The only manipulation our machines caused was the telekinesis. Tests will have to be conducted to determine where this other development came from." She looked calmly between the archeologist and the Jaffa, not intimidated at all by the room full of armed men, all pointing their weapons at her. "Daniel Jackson, we are here to seek your help. It appears that our sisters are in an alliance with Ba'al. They apparently agreed to give him Johnny and the rest of SG-1 in exchange for being allowed to keep Thora. Please believe me when I tell you I knew nothing of this."

The woman's eyes beseeched Teal'c and Daniel for help. The Jaffa turned to Thora, "Thora O'Neill, can you also sense emotions?"

The young girl nodded her head vigorously.

"And what emotion is your Aunt Sophia emitting?"

Thora concentrated for a moment before responding. "Aunty is sad and frightened, but she is also confident that you will do the right thing. Uncle Paul is also frightened."

The big man nodded his head slightly, "Thank you." He turned to the group of men, "Stand down."

Sophia sighed in relief, "Thank you so much," she whispered. She looked around again, worry creasing her brow. "But where are Samantha and Jack O'Neill? I would have thought that they would be here."

It was Daniel who answered, "They should be arriving back in about two hours."

"Where did they go?"

"Paris, on a belated honeymoon."

Sophia smiled, "I'm glad they were finally able to do that."

The group started walking to the debriefing room, "Now, would you care to tell us everything you can about the new threat to Earth? And who the hell is that?" Daniel's last question was directed at the other woman in the group, who looked surprisingly like a picture he had seen of Sam when she was seventeen.

The couple in question was currently enjoying the last few hours of "alone-time" before seeing their wonderful children and friends again. Little did they know the surprises waiting for them back home.

"So, Flyboy, what are we going to name this little one?" Sam asked her husband in a semi-serious tone.

Jack kissed her neck before responding. "Well, I think if it's a boy, we should name him 'Daniel Walter Teal'c,' you know, see what people say to that!"

Sam giggled, knowing exactly that he was referring to the betting pool that had grown around their family. The most current bet was on the sex of the child and what they were going to name it.

"And if it's a girl, Jack?"

"Then we name her Jolinar Grace Sha're, Daniel will have a field day if our new little one is a girl and he finds out her name."

Sam giggled and nodded. Jack looked at her in a playful glare, "What did I say about giggling, Doctor?"

Sam grinned, "Not to. But maybe I just need a lesson to teach me why it's a bad idea."

Jack grinned at that prospect and spent the next hour of their flight 'teaching' his wife why it's never appropriate to giggle.

"And that's when we came to find you, and warn you about our sisters' deceit," Athena concluded. They were in the debriefing room, having spent the last half an hour listening to what Athena and Sophia collectively had to tell them. Paul, a human not host to a symbiote, stayed silent throughout the entire meeting – most of his attention was on his son who had just woken up.

Teal'c nodded solemnly, "Now, Athena, would you care to explain why you have a woman with you who so greatly resembles Dr. Samantha O'Neill?"

Athena sighed; they were not going to like what she had to tell them. "A year ago, when the four of you first came to Tri, before you two returned with General O'Neill Aphrodite procured some of Samantha's DNA, I think you call it."

Daniel nodded - he thought he saw where she was going with this.

"We were doing a favor for Thor in giving him the DNA, it was he who made a younger copy of Samantha's body. This is her clone."

The young woman in question smiled briefly, "Hi guys."
