Jack walked with his head held high, daring anyone to mess with him. Teal'c had just embarrassed him, but he wasn't gonna let it get to him. Nope. Definitely not.
Okay, he wanted revenge. He wanted it bad. But he knew that if he tried anything on Teal'c, he would just get it back twice as bad. A thought crossed his mind, and he smiled evilly. Reynolds. Of course. He had thought it before, but had forgotten it once he realised Teal'c wasn't going to kill him. If Reynolds hadn't ratted him out, then none of this would have happened. Oh yeah, he was gonna get Reynolds, he thought as he entered his office. The calendar caught his eye, making him smile again. Tomorrow was April Fool's. The perfect day to extract revenge. He laughed to himself. Oh yes, Colonel David Reynolds was gonna get it.
Jacks plan of revenge wasn't as evil as he had hoped. He was intending to do something to embarrass him till the end of time, but, Jack being Jack, had started to watch the big game, and had forgotten to plan for it. He had ended up grabbing a bucket, intending to do the old 'bucket on top of the door' gag. It wasn't that embarrassing, but it was the best he could come up with. Now, if he had asked Daniel, he probably could have found out some old prank that the Babylonians used to do, but he was avoiding talking to his friends at all cost. They had laughed at his embarrassment, and Jack thought that deserved some sulking time.
The sound of the gate spinning brought his attention back to reality. He was sitting in the control room, contemplating his revenge, and avoiding most people at all costs. Walter had given him a few funny looks but had said nothing.
"What have we got Walter?" Jack asked, jumping up and walking towards the Sergeant as the event horizon burst out.
"I don't know sir…wait! It's the Kelownans!" he exclaimed. Jack scowled. Great. He really didn't like that planet. First, they get Daniel killed, then they bicker like school children instead of listening.
"Open the iris," Jack said, albeit somewhat grudgingly. Walter nodded, and opened the iris. Jack glared at the Stargate, waiting for the obnoxious people to waltz through. Thankfully, Jonas Quinn walked through instead. And he was alone. Jack grinned, and quickly made his way to greet the alien.
"Jonas!" he exclaimed as he entered the gate room. Jonas grinned at the sight of his former commander.
"Colonel O'Neill! Long time no see!" he said, taking in the sight of the SGC.
"Mr Quinn! Welcome back!" General Hammond greeted Jonas as he walked into the gate room.
"Thankyou sir, its good to be back," Jonas bit his lip thoughtfully for a second. "General, I'm here to request asylum. My people…I'm sick of them, they are going to kill themselves and I don't want to be there when it happens!" Hammond nodded.
"Of course Jonas. Come on, lets go make ourselves a bit more comfortable."
"So, Jonas, we can't really give you your old job, now that Daniel is back and all," Jack informed the alien as they sat down in the Briefing Room. Sam had followed them in and nodded in agreement.
"Oh, I'm aware of that Colonel. I don't want the job anyway. In fact, I don't even want to work here!" Jonas informed them. Hammond frowned.
"I'm sorry, I don't follow you Mr Quinn," he said slowly.
"I want to work at Burger King!" Jonas exclaimed, smiling at the three faces in front of him. They stared back at him with dumbfounded looks on their faces.
"I'm sorry, I had a bit of crazy in my ear, I thought you said you wanted to work at Burger King!" Jack said after a moment.
"I did!" Jonas confirmed.
"But...your job is to study civilisations and stuff!" Jack exclaimed.
"What sort of civilisation would you study there?" Sam wondered out loud. The three men stared at her in shock.
"My god, Carter just said something blond!" Jack hissed.
"Did I say that out loud!" Sam said in horror.
"Jonas, why on Earth would you want to work in a fast food restaurant?" Hammond quizzed.
"It looks like fun! And you get free food!" Jonas said happily.
"I know what this is! You know the date! You know it's April Fools, don't you!" Jack said suddenly, a suspicious look crossing his face. Jonas frowned, and shook his head.
"No Colonel, I really want to do this!" he insisted. Hammond shook his head.
"I'm going to have to consult the president about this," he muttered, standing up. "I have to prepare for a briefing with SG2. Dismissed." A grin crossed Jack's face at the mention of SG2. This was his chance to extract revenge. He stood up slowly; making sure his pants weren't stuck to the chair, then went to get his plan in motion.
