(If I missed you, sorry and thank you!)
General Hammond gave a sigh of relief as the children left the room and looked up.
"Dr. Jackson, I'm assigning you to help Dr. Marie Peters translate the text that SG-13 brought back"
"Really sir?"
"Yes"
"Thank you!"
General Hammond nodded, "Dismissed"
"No you idiot, this way!"
'Dr.' Samantha Carter, PhD Astrophysics, blurted out this complimentary statement.
"This is the way" she said demonstrating.
Shame, Shame, Shame.
I don't want to go to Mexico no more, more, more.
There's a big fat policemen at the door, door, door.
He'll grab you by the collar, make you pay a dollar...
I don't want to go to Mexico no more, more, more.
She paused and took a deep breath.
Mushka, Mushka, I know karate...
Mushka, Mushka, I can move my body...
Mushka, Mushka, oops I'm sorry...
She paused again and whacked Jack on the head.
"What'd you do that for?" he asked outraged.
"Stop being a baby" she said
"Mushka, Mushka FREEZE!"
The two froze.
"Samantha, you moved, O'Neill has won"
Jack cheered as Carter pouted.
"What is that?" Janet asked.
"It's a childish clapping game I learned at school" Sam said loftily.
Janet struggled to maintain her composure.
"Dr. Peters?"
Marie looked up, "Dr. Jackson?" she asked curiously laying down some papers, "Do you need something?"
"Genera Hammond assigned me to help you with the translation"
"Don't you mean I help you?" she asked slightly bitterly.
"No, I help you. Where are you at?"
She hesitated then handing him something. "The text is written both in Goa'uld, Mayan and an unidentified language. I'm no expert in Goa'uld so..."
Daniel accepted the papers, "Yeah... how many pages are there?" he asked curiously.
She grinned, "302"
"JANET!"
"Colonel O'Neill, go sit down!"
"No!"
She took a deep breath, "Go. Sit. Down"
"No!"
"Mom, what's going on?"
Janet looked up to see her daughter in the doorway, "Cassie!"
"Hey!" she said looking at the kids curiously, "Who are they?"
"Sam? Can you come here for a bit?" Janet requested.
She skipped over, "Yeah?"
"Do you remember her?"
Sam tilted her head, "DUH! Hi Cassie!"
"SAM?"
She crossed her arms, "That's my name, don't wear it out!" she said cheerfully. "Can we go somewhere and PLAY?"
Cassie eyed the little girl, "Mom, what is she wearing?"
"A t-shirt"
"Why don't I take the kids... shopping..." she suggested. Jack and Sam were both attired in large, black t-shirts.
"Umm... I don't know... I mean, we don't know what happened to them... COLONEL, GET OFF OF THAT"
Cassie laughed, "Ok Mom, let me talk to Uncle George..."
------
"Thank you!"
"No, thank you!" General Hammond insisted leaning back in his chair.
Cassie looked surprised but didn't comment.
"Do you want a SF to accompany you?"
"I think I can handle three kids sir" she said with a smile.
"Of course. Have a good time Cassandra"
She gave him another smile then bounded out of the room. Oh, how confidant are the young... he thought turning back to his work.
------
Janet let the kids go but reluctantly. Cassie was trying not to crack up over seeing five-year-old Teal'c marching out to the car...
"Mom, what happened?" she asked as the kids strapped themselves in.
"We don't know, all I know that it's them"
"Could they be clones?"
"No, I've been over everything. They ARE SG-1"
She sighed, "Where's Daniel?"
"He wasn't... changed"
Cassie stared at her, "Why not?"
"We don't know why"
She laughed, "He must be having fun. Playing father to the kids"
"A blast" Janet said dryly.
"Does he want to come with..." she began when Janet broke in, shaking her head violently.
"Umm, he's busy right now"
Cassandra shrugged, "Ok, I'm off. Anything in par-tic-ular that you need?"
"The kids need booster seats. They aren't over the age limit"
"Oh... Teal'c going to hate that Mom" Cassie began.
"Cass, it's the law"
"Ok... this will be fun"
Janet watched her daughter drive off. There goes a brave woman... she muttered.
"What ma'am?" a guard near her asked.
"Nothing"
"Pink and blue!"
"Red and blue!"
"You Teal'c?"
The Jaffa considered this. "I would like smaller versions of the clothing I normally wear"
Cassie winked at him. "Ok"
"Oooohhh Cassie, I want that!" Sam squealed pointing to a lace pink dress.
Cassie eyed her. She had always thought Sam would have gone out for more... masculine clothing but...
"PLEASE?" Sam begged.
"Why not?"
3 hours later...
Cassie collapsed in the food court. "No we are NOT going to the mall!"
"But we only went to dumb Wal-Mart and that Army store" Jack pouted.
"Jack, sit up and eat your burger," she ordered. "Teal'c, French fries and Sam, you finish your cartoon of milk"
"THEN can we go to Baskin Robbins"
"Yes, then we can go to Baskin Robbins"
"I will not sit in one of the restraining devices" Teal'c said quietly yet firmly.
"You will or you can walk home" she said absently.
"I will walk"
Cassie looked up, "Teal'c, you're riding with me. Ok, what else do we need?"
"Something to DO on base" Sam insisted.
"But Jack HAS a stash of stuff. Game boys, remote controlled cars, yoyos, cards, play station..." Cassie began.
"1. I can't reach the cabinet" Jack began
"And 2. Those are BORING!" Sam interjected.
"What games do you want?" she asked warily.
They grinned...
"This doesn't make any sense" Daniel remarked looking up.
"What Dr. Jackson?"
"It's Daniel"
She grinned, "Daniel, what doesn't make any sense?"
"Well, I'm only 4 pages into, I mean this is... deep but, it appears this was a temple of a sort a long time ago"
"We gathered that from the Mayan text"
"What worries me that this is in Goa'uld. I mean, is this... a... Goa'uld experiment gone wrong?"
"I've gotten a little farther in the Mayan. From what I can gather, this was a sacred rite."
"Really?"
She passed him the paper.
He scrutinized it, "I think in this case, the word is journey"
"But that doesn't make any sense" she said slowly, taking her paper back.
"This is going to take a while..."
Cassie managed to get Teal'c into his 'restraining device' by promising him a triple scoop of the ice cream of his choice. She grinned. SG-1 were going to have a hefty bill to pay when they 'grew' up...
"Are we there yet?"
"Not yet Sam, 'bout five more minutes"
"Ok" she said agreeably. Silence filled the car.
"What are you guys doing?" she asked a second later.
"We're arm wrestling" Jack called.
"How?" she asked risking a look over her shoulder. She gasped and pulled over.
"JONATHAN AND SAMANTHA O'NEILL" she raged. "Buckle yourselves up!"
"My last name is Carter," the little girl said sweetly. 'But SOME DAY it will be O'Neill"
Cassie froze. "What?"
"Jack's going to marry me when we get big" she said with an engaging smile.
"When was this discussed?" Cassie demanded.
"Last night…"
Hope you liked it! Please review…
