AN: Wah, bloody A- in the RE test (and I hadn't even prepared the text we had to prep.) How's that possible? Really now, I haven't even looked at the stuff...

For that I'm gonna give ya a chapter that's hopefully a bit longer this time.

"What were you thinking?" Baal's question was demanding not allowing any cheap excuse.

Yasir looked up at his hologram, not willing to respond, but finally she had to: "I abandoned my post for various reason..."

"Such as?" obviously the Goa'uld had not much of a wish to simply accept her decision.

She took an unnerved breath, "First of all I didn't want the Tauri to know anything about who I am, secondly you know that we had to move certain goods to a safe distance because of their attack and third: there was something personal involved."

"Personal?" Baal gave her a distrustful look, "I hope for you that it was nothing to do with affection."

"No", Yasir contested though her mind was screaming something else, "you know exactly where my loyalty lies."

For a long moment Baal simply eyed her, before he stated, "You've abandoned one of my most valuable outpost and you're not completely honest with me. I don't know what I'd do with you if you were someone else", he frowned at her with a ponderous glare.

"But I'm not someone else", Yasir nearly snapped, "so if you'd please let me continue my work now?"

"Permission granted", she saw exactly how upset he was because of her, but luckily he was in absolutely no position to do something against it.

As the hologram finally dissolved Yasir let out a scornful groan. How could Baal just horn in on her like that? If he continued like that he would completely rid himself of the chance to even know about her prisoner at all.

Why were these Goa'uld all so extraordinarily stupid, even the one she had thought to be a bit more intelligent?

Daniel sat up and had a look around. Obviously he had been moved again: at the moment he was sitting in the middle of a huge four-poster, located in an even more huge bedroom. But he did not much care:

Lost in thought he brushed across his naked back with a hand, luckily the burning on his skin had ceased, but now his head was in a mere haze.

Since the last time Yasir had sent him to unconsciousness something must have happened with his mind; all of a sudden countless thoughts and memories were crowding it. He had no idea where they had come from, but they seemed oddly familiar to him and there was an immense power to be felt behind each one of them.

Was it possible that his subconscious had finally set free all the things about Yasir he had not been able to remember?

This shouldn't have happened.

As Daniel looked up his eyes met Yasir's. The moment he caught sight of the emerald fire blazing within them remembrance hit him like a lightning storm:

Yasir and him, they had had sex, more than that: their minds and energies had merged, right until the moment Daniel had realized the complete darkness of her powers and the burning evil spirit propelling every single action she took.

Now he even saw that every possible attempt to hold her back from her destructive plans would have failed, then, just as it would do right now.

Although he still hoped that he would be stronger, powerful enough to defeat her in the end.

You are not. Yasir's thoughts were full of anger.

What if I am? Daniel fired back at her, wondering how sudden and how strong this power had returned to him.

You'll never be.

He cramped together. How had she managed to intrude his mind with such an overwhelming force?

"Ow. What was that for?" Daniel gathered his remaining strength to push her out of his head.

Yasir gave him a wry smile, "You'll never get over me, Daniel Jackson."

The moment he had already begun to think that he had really forced her out, her telepathic force stroke back a hundred times stronger than before.

Slowly Daniel got the feeling that he would succumb. He fell backwards and crashed onto the mattress. His body contracted with pain, his nerves were on fire and his head was about to explode.

Even though his mind was no longer able to react properly Daniel brought out this one thing:

I have a question.

Yasir's face appeared over his and he felt her body settle on top of his.

I'm listening.

Daniel pulled himself together to quietly voice one of the questions his memories had not been able answer, "Why are you using Baal to defeat Anubis?"

Yasir grinned at him devilishly, "I'm only too lazy. That's all."

No, there's more. At once Daniel's craving for the truth gave him unexpected mental powers; he practically sucked in Yasir's entire memory, completing the puzzle within his own.

The outcome was incredible. As Daniel opened his eyes again after some seconds he even saw a flicker of fear in Yasir's eyes that almost instantaneously turned into immense rage as she realized his gaze.

How dare you doing that to me? She fumed,"This has just been your death sentence."

The vigorous force of her telepathy made Daniel black out at once, but as soon Yasir had gone away, he regained his thoughts, staying in a phase of dream in which he could finally call his friends for help, before he got to experience the full rage of a pregnant woman...

Into her dreamless sleep suddenly burst an urgent message of distress, it was Daniel calling for his friends' help and it was for sure that they did not have much time.

Sam, listen to me carefully. I'm still alive, I need your help. Yasir has abducted me to one of Baal's planets, I may not have much time before she decides to kill me.

As quickly as it had come the "dream" was gone again. Sam woke up, she turned over and slid out of bed. She had to tell the others, as fast as she could.

They could not resign now, Daniel's life was still at stake...

"Are you sure this can't be some kind of trap?" General Hammond asked worriedly. Only minutes after Sam had called Jack, SG-1 had come together to an emergency briefing.

"It could be anything", Jack pondered a little put off.

"Yes", Sam gave in, "but I'm just so absolutely sure it really was Daniel who called me."

Teal'C wrinkled his eyebrows in thought, then said, "Perhaps it is possible that the abilities he had while being ascended have involuntarily been reawakened by Yasir."

"Maybe it's that, maybe it's something else", Sam sighed leaning her head into her hand, "perhaps it is possible to request another set of intel concerning Yasir's latest troop movements."

"I agree", Jack consented, "it's best to keep an eye on her and perhaps we'll even get another chance to rescue Daniel from her grasp in time."

Hammond consented with a slow nod, "You're damn right, people. We can't leave Dr Jackson hanging on this one. Request the intel."

"Yes, sir", Jack stood up helping Sam to walk downstairs to the control room once again.

AN: This spiral staircase is a real killer. I think you all get the idea how much Sam would suffer if she had to go downstairs on her own, sigh.

More intel on whose baby Yasir is blessed with and why she is next chapter.
