"So Daniel, you're telling us we have royalty on our hands?" Sam asked in awe. The woman looked and acted funny, but she was nice one second and mean the next. Very confusing!
"Not only that, she was well documented in her day and she actively participated in daily affairs so much she got recognized along with her husband, Amenhotep's, name as queen and king. Very significant," Daniel finished his history lesson. Jack looked more than bored.
"So this means? What?" Jack inquired sarcastically. "She's gonna smite us down or what?"
"No Jack, she was a good person Queen Tiy and very smart," he said looking 'discreetly' at Sam.
She smiled and whispered "Great for her!"
"I can't believe she's in such good shape after so long though. We all saw Apophis' demise," the man remarked. Jack furrowed his brows.
"He didn't matter. She didn't get on my bad side. I like her actually. Well… the real her…" Jack said thoughtfully. "I wish we'd thrown him off a cliff."
"Indeed O'Neill. I too wished to do harm to Apophis, but this woman is… 'alright' as you say," Teal'c said slowly trying to make his voice as deep as possible. It didn't work. The children quickly hid amused smiles as Teal'c piercing glare ran through them.
"So what do we do with a temporally misplaced Egyptian queen?" Sam asked curiously. The others looked at her. "What?" she asked annoyed.
"Oh nothing, it's just a good question!" Jack exclaimed. Daniel and Teal'c murmured their assent.
"Well, when Ammut wakes up, she will not be a pleasant person to deal with. If Tiy wakez up… well… we have a chat with her. Tell her what'z happened; ask her how she's still with us. The usual." Daniel shrugged. Yeah, that was about it. But "In the mean time, we wait for that Tok'ra ship to arrive and get us off thiz dump," the young archeologist finished irritably.
Jack smiled. "Your lisp came back."
OOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Little girl instincts had gripped Sam and dragged her over to the unconscious female enigma in the corner. What was she? How did Tiy stay alive so long? What was Ammut? What a strange little snake…
Sam poked the queen/proclaimed goddess to see what would happen. Nothing. She was disappointed. Frowning, she poked Ammut/Tiy harder. This time their head slumped to their chest. Sam whipped out her handy-dandy notebook she had brought just for this kind of thing.
She glanced at the men sitting on the decorative jut out on the wall. Sam rolled her eyes in disgust and gave a disgruntled snort before turning back to the woman.
"Boys, never do their job… sitting around talking non stop. Lazy people… why do we need boys? They are sooo disgusting and icky. And lazy. They could help here, jeez," the little blond girl muttered to herself in obvious disdain. Mini-Carter was now inspecting the limp body for anything that might have led to the discovery of the cloaking device. In doing this, Sam stopped and looked at Tiy's face.
It looked like Tiy was a beautiful person during her reign. With her smooth, flowing, black as night hair, her dark green eyes, and perfectly tanned skin Sam could see why she was so documented. The woman had the look of an intelligent person, but she had the looks of a model – in short she was beautiful. Ammut had disfigured those looks. Not in a physical way, no, her face was the same essentially. It was the person behind the face that had destroyed the beauty. Millennia of pain, cruelty, and power had ruined the sparkle in her eyes and the softness of her face. But now, sleeping, she looked as pretty as she was at least 4000 years ago except for one thing…
"Hey guys!" she called to those who were behind her. "Come here and lookie." The three men scampered over to her.
"What you find Carter?" Jack said peering over her small shoulder. Sam pointed to Tiy's face. The small wrinkles now stood out.
"She's beginning to age and die."
