Worker72: That bothered you? What? Haven't you ever met anyone and made a mistaken assumption on how old they were? There's nothing more to it than that.
Chapter 4 Getting nowhereA week had passed since SG-1 had discovered the downed fighter and run into Jaya. Carter had been toiling day and night to figure out what everything about Jaya's fighter. So far she had very little progress to show for it. This frustrated her and Jack had stopped bugging her after she 'accidentally' spilt her coffee on him after he had nearly managed to destroy an entire day's work. Jack was afraid that her frustration and his needling would cause her to do a something in response that would lead to her court-martial. So he'd gone off to bug Daniel as he was a civilian and couldn't be court-martialled, if he did something.
Daniel also was not having any luck deciphering the script that had been found on the fighter, though he believed it to a derivative of the Ancient's language since some similarities in the script could be seen. This had set Daniel off as he had then started to speculate wildly that Jaya's people were direct descendants of the Ancients who still used aspects of their technology, but the lack of any reaction from what systems were still active on the fighter to Jack O'Neill had cast doubt on this hypothesis.
Dr Mackenzie had arrived as scheduled and over the course of the week he'd talked to Jaya on many occasions and had tried to see what she remembered but so far he had come up short. This had in no way made Jaya unhappy, she didn't mind at all that she didn't remember anything of her life but it had lead Dr Mackenzie to hypothesis that there was something horrendous in her memory that she was trying to repress. It was the report of one of the Airmen that were responsible for guarding her door at night that led to the discovery of the fact that she seemed to be experiencing daily nightmares. This led Dr Mackenzie to add Post-traumatic stress syndrome to his diagnosis of self-induced amnesia.
In short, even though she appeared to be a vibrant happy young woman she was in fact, to quote Colonel Jack O'Neill, 'one really, really messed up girl'.
This had in no way diminished his affection for her, for in the week that she was at the SGC, a bond had grown between them built upon the dry sarcastic sense of humor they both shared. Together they had become a menace to the SGC, no one was safe from their dry comments and humorous remarks. It was like having the smart sarcastic Jack O'Neill in a petite female body, one who had a pout that was deadlier than a Goa'uld hand device. No male was safe once she unleashed her pout upon him, amazingly, many a time had she even managed to force Jack to give up his last cup of blue jello.
Even Teal'c had been unable to resist her charms and the large intimidating Jaffa warrior had been smitten by her good-natured charms, and he discovered to his delight that she was one of the few people who could put up with watching Wormhole Extreme with him. That had cemented their good-natured relationship for all time.
It was on the first day of the second week that Dr Mackenzie suggested something to could help bring back Jaya's memories.
"Hypnosis, doctor?" asked General Hammond as his brow furrowed quizzically, "How will that help?"
Doctors Mackenzie and Fraiser had come to General Hammond in his office and they were now explaining to him why they wanted to do this.
"Sir, I've tried everything else and so far I've failed to jog her memories. I usually keep hypnosis as a last resort, this is why I was hesitant to suggest this course of action before," Dr Fraiser nodded adding her support to his pronunciation of the only course they had left open to them.
"Does this produce hold any risks for Jaya?" General Hammond said thinking their suggestion over.
Dr Fraiser answered for Mackenzie, "No sir, there are no reported complications associated with this process, though this has a very low success rate," she pointed out.
"And if it fails?" the General asked, wanting to know what other options they had in front of them.
"Nothing sir. After this we can only wait to see if she regains her memory on her own, that could happen any time between two minutes form now to twenty years from now or more…she might never regain her memories at all," answered Doctor Mackenzie grimly.
General Hammond thought about it for a moment, he didn't have to think long, there wasn't much choice in the matter, he nodded smartly and ordered, "Fine, see to it doctors…though tell me before you start, I'd like to watch. Jaya has become a mystery that I'd like to see solved…the sooner the better!"
"Yes sir," the doctors intoned before leaving his office to prepare for the procedure.
