Again,SG-1 and the Stargate are NOT mine,tho sometimes I wish they were! Amanda, Tem'kra, and the story/plotlineare! I am not getting money from this so do go having a fit!
This Chapter takes place back at the SGC! Enjoy!
CHAPTER 2- "Home Sweet Home"... Right?
As SG-1 walked through the stargate, the first thing Carter and O'Neill saw was General Hammond and one other person standing beside him.
"Maybourne! Never glad to see you!" O'Neill said his normally friendly voice a little less friendly and with much sarcasm. Sam just put her arm around Amanda protectively.
"Sure Jack. Who's this?" He said, looking at Amanda with suspicion.
"This, sir, is Jolinar's sister, Tem'kra." Sam responded, squeezing her sisters arm.
Amanda just stood there, looked at Maybourne as if to size him up and noticeably turned to face General Hammond, obviously showing that Maybourne was not worth her effort or time. She gave General Hammond a slight courtesy and inclined her head, and stood straight and tall once again.
"I bring greetings from the High Priestess of Eltar, sir."
"Thank-you. And may I ask who you are?" Replied Hammond.
"Amanda Andeanna Angel McLany. I am the 'assistant' to the High Priestess."
I don't want that other guy to know! she thought to SG-1 privately.
"I am sorry about this, but I'm afraid I must ask you, along with SG-1, to report to the infirmary. It's just base regulations."
"Of course," Amanda replied politely.
"You have been one of my better patients for your age. How old are you? Sixteen, seventeen?" Dr. Fraise asked her, trying to make Amanda feel a little better about her check-up. It was obvious from her expression that she wasn't doing to well.
"Sure. Seventeen. And as long as there are no needles, I will be all the better." She replied, feeling a little sick.
"Why is that? And what do you mean by 'sure, seventeen'?"
"Eltaran and Earth ages are measured differently. So… doing the calculations, it's roughly seventeen years of age. Also, with the needles, I've had some VERY bad experience with them."
"Hey Mandy. Why don't you get Tem'kra to handle that part, because it is needed." Sam piped in from the next bed over, sounding sympathetic for her sister.
"You have a symbiot? Does General Hammond know this?" Dr. Fraiser asked.
"Yes, he does." She replied politely.
"Unfortunately, so does Colonel Maybourne now." Jack jumped in, his voice full of venom.
"I'm not too concerned about him. He doesn't look like he can do anything much. Also, unless he wants to start a war you cannot possibly win, I do not think he will try anything either." Amanda replied with a matter-of-fact tone that was all too familiar now, but still managed to remain respectful at the same time.
"We've beaten the Goa'uld before. We could win!" Daniel stated from his own bed.
"The people of the Tau'ri are very capable, Amanda. They may succeed." Teal'C said
Amanda's eyes flashed as Tem'kra came into control and Dr. Fraiser jumped back. "Oh! I am sorry Doctor. I did not mean to frighten you." Tem'kra said. "If you need to take blood or give any needles, please do it now while I have Mira knocked out so she will not see them." She smiled politely, trying to reassure Janet.
"Mira?" Jack and Sam questioned at the same time. Then Sam began to smile. "She hates that name!"
"I know." Tem'kra said, smirking.
As Janet was drawing blood, Maybourne and Hammond walked in.
"Dr. Fraiser, Jack, Major, Dr. Jackson, Teal'C. How's our little visitor?" Maybourne asked slyly.
"I'm fine. And I'm NOT LITTLE!" she said, extremely annoyed, and giving Maybourne a menacing look.
"I have orders directly from the president himself that Amanda must go with Col. Maybourne for questioning about the Goa'uld." Said Hammond, a note of sadness in his voice.
"Sir, I don't think that's a very good idea!" Jack piped in quickly.
"No, Colonel. I will go." Amanda said after raising her head up to signify that it was not Tem'kra who spoke. "If I find the treatment there not suitable for someone of my stature, I will leave." Nothing in her voice said this was a suggestion, but more of stating a fact.
"I'm sorry. You will leave when we are done. Not before." Maybourne said plainly.
"And what makes you believe you can stop me?" Amanda's voice took on a tone of a very fine and educated lady and the accent of a British. Everyone looked a little surprised as she stood up and crosses her arms over her chest. 'Oh! This is going to get interesting!' Thought O'Neill to himself. 'She's a tough one.' He smiled to himself, proud of Amanda for sticking up for herself, even though she was the shortest in the room.
"Amanda, I think he can stop you if he wants to." Sam said.
Amanda snapped her fingers and Maybourne was on the other side of the room. Another snap and he was back. "Ehem you said something about being able to stop me!" she asked, looking quite pleased with herself.
Three hours later, Amanda was back in the SGC infirmary.
"Doctor Fraiser… How do you put up with such a PRICK!" She said with such furry in her voice, no one wanted to get near her while she paced back and forth. "OH! He's SO rude! If we get a treaty with you… One of the requirements will be he MUST resign!"
While she was ranting on and pacing, SG-1, Selmac, Lantesh and General Hammond walked in. Sam ran up to Amanda and held her tight, not letting her pace so she would calm down.
"Are you okay? Did he hurt you? What happened?" She asked, quite concerned about the black eye developing on Amanda's right side.
"I'm fine. He only got on hit in." she replied, pushing her sister off her. "I don't think he'll be coming back to get me though."
"Why?" Teal'C asked. Then Jack smiled.
"What'dya do kid? You didn't hurt him did you?"
"Not much," Amanda said, trying to sound innocent. "Well… I warned him what would happen if he used violence and he did not listen! You only get to hit me once off guard and then you get a penalty!" Still trying to sound sweet and innocent.
"What did you do?" Teal'C asked again, his eyes sparkled as he smiled that Maybourne got beat up by a girl. Everyone could see that Teal'C was trying not to laugh, but only those in the SGC understood why, from the time Maybourne had taken him when he was bitten by that bug on BP6-3Q1.
"He hit me once because I wasn't expecting it. The second time, well… let's just say that he won't be using that hand for a while." Then she looked at Jack and pouted. "I told him what would happen so he knew well in advance."
"Telepathy?" Jack asked.
"Oh yeah!" then she started to laugh, which got Teal'C laughing, and then everyone started to laugh, even Martouf and Jacob, at such a funny sight.
When it was time to go home, Amanda said goodbye to her new and old friends.
"Now, promise to come and visit sometime! And bring 'him'!"
"Of course I will!" Sam replied.
"Girls, who's 'him'? Jacob asked.
"Ask Selmac. I think he knows him. Marty, don't you dare say anything! Nor you Lantesh!"
"We promise!" Then Marty and Mandy laughed. The rest of SG-1 and Hammond all stood there wondering what was going on.
"Well, time for me to hit the road. Bye everyone!"
"Don't forget the scrapbook!" Sam called out before Mandy stepped through the Gate.
"Scrapbook?" Martouf and Jacob both asked at the same time, surprised.
"Oh, Jolinar! What's going on?" Jack asked.
"Nothing, sir! Even something's need to be kept between sisters!" Sam replied cheerfully to her CO.
As they walked out of the gate room Jacob leaned in close to Sam.
"Does this mean I have another teenaged daughter?"
"I don't know dad. You'll have to ask her the next time you see her!" Sam said smiling. Jacob just groaned at the idea of going threw that again.
