Previously on Stargate SG-1...
"Jack?" Hammond questioned. "Day 10?"
"Sir, I can summarize our last days, we ate, slept, worked... that's it"
"Details Jack Details"
He looked down "We went for a hot air balloon ride"
George stared at him. "What?"
And now the continuation...
"Yeah."
"You WHAT?" Davis asked incredulously.
"We went for a balloon ride"
"How?"
"The Asgard gave us one."
"What is God's name for?"
"I..."
"Incoming Traveler!"
"Dismissed!" Hammond called heading into the control room.
"Who is it?" he demanded.
"The Tok'ra sir"
"Open it!"
The iris opened and Jacob ran through. He dropped onto the ground and two staff blasts shot above his head and hit the concrete wall.
"Lock it up!"
The iris closed and several thuds were heard.
"Thanks George!" he called.
"Dad, are you ok?" Sam called hurrying into the gate room.
"Hey Sam" he said getting up slowly "I'm fine"
She eyed his clothing "Dad, you have blood all over you!"
"Just a scratch, Selmac will tend to it," he said distractedly. "George, why didn't you tell me my daughter was back?" he demanded.
"I left a message with the Tok'ra. They said you were on a very important mission and would return soon."
"Jack, Teal'c, glad to see you made it, no bones broken?"
"None whatsoever" Jack said cheerfully.
"How fortunate" he said dryly.
"Jacob Carter. I am glad to see you are well," Teal'c said with a slight bow.
"Yeah... Did I interrupt something?" he asked eyeing Davis curiously.
"They were just debriefing us on their last mission"
"Care to join us?" George asked.
Jack and Sam both stared at him, horror struck.
"Yeah, they're going to tell us about the hot air balloon" Daniel put in.
"HOT AIR BALLOON?"
"Indeed"
Sam whimpered. This was not good.
"All right, lead the way"
Once in the briefing room, Carter stood up "Permission to leave the room on personal business sir?"
Hammond eyed her suspiciously but knew he couldn't really refuse her. "Permission granted"
She almost dashed out of the room, Jack following her with a longing glance. "Sir, permission to..."
"Denied"
He got up and walked around the table (skirting Jacob) and sat next to Teal'c.
"What'd I miss?" Jacob asked curiously.
"Parent trap, a concussion, the Simpson's, jet skiing, bowling, skating, hailstones, Zip-a-dee-do-dah and diet soda and pictures"
"What?"
Daniel sighed, "That's what you missed"
"All I heard was diet soda and pictures"
"General Carter, I have my notes for this particular briefing if you'd like to see them..." Paul Davis offered a bit reluctantly.
"I would indeed"
He handed him a thick sheaf of papers.
"FOR ONE BRIEFING?"
"Yes sir"
Walter hurried in "Sir, the President would like you to call him at 0900 hours tomorrow and Major Carter is lingering outside the door, do you want me to-"
"Send her in"
Carter entered with a red face. "Walter's a fink," she whispered to Janet "Biggest needles"
"You kidding? I'm using the smallest I can," she whispered back.
Carter frowned and hurried to her seat. "Sorry sir"
"That's all right. Colonel?"
"General?"
"Continue"
"Me?" Jack squeaked, "I uhh think Teal'c would do this better then I would sir, I-"
"Very well. As we awakened, we decided that perhaps we should explore a little more. Major Carter had spotted some boxes near the Stargate so approximately about ten o'clock your time, we went adventuring as O'Neill said…"
------ -----
Carter looked at herself in the mirror with a sigh. Her clothes looked like something Cassie would have picked! Tight jeans, she couldn't find a warm top so she wore a thick sweatshirt with the words "O'Neill" and "Hot chick" and "Warm me up" embroidered all over it. Maybe Cassie had planned this…
"Carter, you ready?"
"Yeah!" she yelled grabbing her knapsack. Water, protein bars, a chocolate bar, a flashlight and a book in case they got stuck somewhere. Hey, a girl needs entertainment… and NOT the kind Teal'c was hoping for!
She hurried out and promptly froze. "What happened?" she demanded.
"Roof leak"
Melted water had leaked through then promptly refroze, making the halls very slippery. Carter inched her way across the icy hall and into the relative safety of the living room. "Ready to go?"
"Yeah, T!"
Teal'c appeared dressed in sweats "These are the only remaining clothing that fit me that are warm enough"
"They're… great T!"
They were bright, bright red.
Teal'c, not a self-conscious man, calmly pulled the matching bright, bright red beanie over his head. "I am ready"
"Carter" Jack called as she headed for the door "You need a hat!"
"I left mine on the Beliskinor sir"
Jack hurried out of the room. He came sliding back in (the ice you know) "Here"
It was his SG hat.
"Sir, this is yours, I can't wear-"
"Yeesh Carter, it's not like you can have it or anything"
She smiled "Thank you sir"
"Anytime"
As they began the long hike to the 'gate, Jack began humming the familiar tune "Jingle Bells"
"Sir…"
"What?"
"It's June sir"
"So?"
She shrugged.
"Oh what fun it is to ride in a one..."
By the time they reached the gate, Jack was on the third rendition of Silver Bells.Teal'c and Sam lost no time in opening the first box.
"No way" Carter mumbled as the crate crashed down. "That's..."
-------
"As you are aware of, it was a balloon that can carry humans. We promptly sat it up and tried to get it to work. We succeeded."
"I see" Jacob said "And why did you do that?"
"What else were we to do?"
"Good point"
"We flew for about an hour around the hut but then our basket began to crumble..."
----------
"Jack!"
The man called looked over only to see one very big problem. The bottom of the basket was breaking, fast.
"Teal'c, take her down!"
Teal'c tried to but didn't succeed. With a scream, Carter disappeared followed by her two teammates.
-------------
"Fortunately for us, we landed in a snow bank"
-----------
"Owe!"
Jack landed three feet away from her. "I always wanted to make a snow angel"
"What is a snow angel O'Neill?"
Carter gaped at them. They almost died and they were joking about snow angels? Typical guys.
"You ok Carter?"
She rolled over "Peachy" she muttered sarcastically.
Jack commenced digging in the snow frantically "I don't believe it" he whispered reverently.
"What?" she wheezed.
"HOCKEY STICKS!"
-----------
"O'Neill forced me to play hockey with him."
"Oh?" Jacob asked curiously. "Did you like it?"
"No"
--------
"And O'Neill swoops past the large Jaffa and he SCORES!"
Teal'c looked sulky as Jack flew past him. He wasn't use to skating and he would have never agreed to but O'Neill had threatened to destroy the Star Wars trilogy.
"14-2" Carter yelled looking up from her coffee. She was still moaning the loss of her book. She sighed, "Let's go now Jack!" she yelled.
"Why?"
"You said at seven"
Teal'c hurried to the side and pulled off his skates and stuck his shoes on. Jack followed suit more reluctantly.
They returned home. Jack produced half charred hamburgers, they ate and then retired, Teal'c and Sam as quickly as possible as Jack was hinting about some more hockey…
-----------
"We retired after we had consumed O'Neill's charred meat"
"It was perfect!"
"Indeed. For you perhaps!"
Jack scowled at him.
Jacob had been reading the notes when he paused.
"Suspects that SG-1 has pictures to prove this"
he read aloud.
They froze.
"George?"
"SG-1, did you take pictures?"
Jack squirmed.
"Colonel O'Neill?"
Jack tossed two pictures across the table. Hammond examined them closely.
"Colonel, I thought you said it was snowing"
"It was sir"
He held p the picture for everyone to see. It had been taken by Jack and showed Carter in a bikini and Teal'c in swim trucks.
"Jack!" Jacob hissed.
George held up the second picture then burst into loud laughter.
Well... hope you liked it... didn't have time to do day 11...
primax: Jacob for you!
Again, hope you liked it and please review!
