next chapter of insanity and tiredness...
The lights and locks flickered on again. Everything was running smoothly. What a glitch! The three looked over at Daniel's sleepy, weary, and sad face. Jack cocked his head.
"What did you say?" The goa'uld, or whatever it was, wouldn't speak anymore. "Fine, don't tell me." Daniel's head tilted up and nodded at a small bump in the ceiling. A nub of sorts barely seeable. In it was a little black dot. Goa'uld surveillance, oh.
Very carefully, Sam tapped out Morse Code on the floor. Luckily, they had just recently taught Daniel and Teal'c Morse in case they got trapped in a situation were voices couldn't be used. This was one of those times. Daniel was a little rusty, but he had picked it up well enough, so Sam tapped slowly and carefully.
What did you say before?
I'm not a gould. He'd used the slur… it was easier to type.
Then what are you?
Tok'ra.
Here Jack interjected anxiously. Uh huh… since when do Tok'ra have jaffa to carry their symbiotes?
Repeat Jack.
Don't call me that! I said… since when do Tok'ra have jaffa to carry their symbiotes?
Never.
Huh?
They put me in the jaffa hoping that one of you would get me, the symbiote explained carefully. Teal'c, Sam and Jack exchanged looks. Sam came back in tapping.
It doesn't mean we trust you.
I know… Daniel's eyes had rolled.
But we might consider actually acknowledging you. That was Jack, of course. If you are Tok'ra let Daniel speak. Daniel's head drooped and came back up again. He waved, Jack waved back.
"Daniel?"
"Hi guys."
"How's life?"
"Not good… my throat hurts," Daniel whispered.
As equally quiet, Sam asked, "Can we trust you?"
"Yeah, it's a Tok'ra… or something like it."
"What! Something like it?" That was Jack… again. Teal'c turned to his comrades.
"O'Neill, Major Carter, understand that this might be a lie." Jack and Sam nodded to acknowledge him.
"We know Teal'c," Jack said. "Thanks."
Who are you anyway? Jack tapped out. Daniel looked around some before answering.
I am Djari, sister of Selmak.
WHAT!
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"Oh wow…" Sam was still trying to wrap her brain around the "sister of Selmak" thing. How could she have known who was her sister? At any rate, she was much younger than Selmak was. Not only that, but Djari was in a man's body. Interesting. Sam wondered how it was taking the child half of Daniel's brain. After all, everything was a little scrambled in there.
"Carter! A-mutt is here again…" Sam smiled briefly and bowed. Daniel/Djari stood straight and looked Ammut in the eye.
"My lady," he implored. "These Tau'ri children wish to see our lord Anubis. Shall we grant their wishes?"
She looked thoughtful then nodded slowly. "Yes, they shall see our lord Anubis. Perhaps it will give their lives meaning. Come."
The three un-snaked bodies followed her footsteps back down to the rings. "You are in luck, our lord Anubis has decided to check up here this week. You may see him." She hit the buttons on the pad and up they went. SG-1 had concealed their weapons in their jackets and the jackets had gone with them to see Anubis.
On Anubis' ship, three guards escorted four little kids to see their lord. Three big jaffa to four little kids… get that! Anyway, they all made their way down the hall and into this huge antechamber. Very ornate too.
"You may leave," Djari said in a very important Goa'uld voice. The jaffa bowed and left. "Well, that was fun," Daniel mentioned.
"Okay, that was weird, stop that," Jack also mentioned. Daniel and Jack threw each other dirty looks. Sam stepped in saying that there was a time and place for fights, but not now!
"I so own you gould!"
"Tau'ri scum!"
The two laughed at their own antics. Kids… what kooks.
