"O'Neill! Colonel O'Neill! Daniel Jackson has been injured!" The huge
Jaffa ran from the trees, practically slamming into Jack straight away.
"T? What are you talking about?"
"Daniel Jackson Colonel! It is apparent that he has been bitten by a reptile of some sort."
"He's at the ruins still?"
Teal'c nodded.
"OK. You go and tell Carter to get a radio signal through to base and let them know that we'll need a medical team as soon as we get back. Then come back and help me with Daniel. Tell Carter to watch her back, and to be ready to open the wormhole. Let's move!"
Teal'c jogged towards camp while O'Neill threw himself into the dense vegetation.
After running flat out for about 5 minutes O'Neill found himself emerging from the trees onto a large open grassland, with giant rocks and slabs towards the centre. Without hesitation he headed for the ruins, calling out Daniel's name.
"Nnnh", was his response.
"Daniel!" said the Colonel as he caught sight of his friend, clutching at his side, "You OK?"
"Jack... Do I LOOK OK???"
"Well, no..."
"You got help?"
"Yeah." O'Neill pulled out the medical kit and bound the wound. It was horrible, all purple and oozing pus. A trickle of blood came out every now and then too.
"Teal'c comin' to help take you back."
"Nnh."
O'Neill sat down beside his friend and kept the pressure on the wound. Then he got out his canteen flask and held it to Daniel's mouth. Jackson let the water pour over his mouth before even trying to swallow, and when he did he nearly choked.
"It's OK Danny. We're gonna get you back. Look, here's Teal'c now", he turned to the Jaffa who was now entering the ruins, "We gotta get him outta here NOW T."
"Yes O'Neill, he seems to have become a lot worse since I got you."
Without another word the pair lifted Daniel as if he were a toy and walked quickly back through the forest.
As they saw daylight again Colonel O'Neill yelled to Carter, who he knew would have stayed within earshot, "Carter! Dial it up NOW!"
They started jogging over to the Stargate where they placed the doctor on a stretcher.
"My God, he looks awful", said Sam, looking over the pale orange face of Daniel.
"Yeah. He lost conciousness five minutes ago."
Just then, the great blue watery substance that the Stargate was made of whooshed from the ring, but quickly settled back in. Teal'c once again picked up one end of the stretcher and O'Neill took the other. Sam stayed at the side, keeping a hand on his wrist pulse. They jogged up the ramp and through the event-horizon.
