Sam nodded slowly. "Yeah… there are, aren't there?" Hammond now looked vaguely amused at his officer's expression. Teal'c pulled a major eyebrow which caused Jack and Jack to start laughing outright. MacGyver was so out of the picture, it wasn't even funny. He rejoined his brethren… whom he didn't even know…
"So… what's so great?" he asked. Jack O'Neill stood up and introduced their team.
"This is the wayward Dr. Daniel Jackson, as you well know."
"Hello again Daniel," Mac greeted warmly. One friendly face he "knew."
"This is the stoic Teal'c, Teal'c, this is MacGyver."
"Greetings MacGyver of Earth." Mac was unsure how to answer the formal greeting and a bow.
"Hello!" he answered back.
"And this is the lovely Major Samantha Carter. Carter, this is MacGyver."
"OH! I know you! You work at the Phoenix Foundation under Peter Thorton out in California, right?" she asked. At this, Hammond looked surprised.
"Thorton? Pete Thorton! That old dog… how is he?" Hammond asked happily. MacGyver looked surprised. A minute ago, that man was about to blow their heads off.
"He's good… but he's developed glaucoma," Mac explained sadly. There was a small reverent silence for this Pete Thorton with glaucoma. They all well knew that glaucoma could very likely lead to blindness.
"I hope he's okay," Hammond expressed.
"Yeah, for now."
There was another awkward moment for the seven of them and Jack Hawke broke the silence. "So, about MacGyver…" The man named looked suspicious. It was one thing to be captured and thrown into a prison in the course of a day, but t was another to be thrown in a prison with your twins and be brought deep underground into a secret facility. Yeah, that was noticeably different…
"What about MacGyver?" he asked warily.
"Where did you come from!" everyone in the room managed to ask at the same time, except for Teal'c. He merely looked amused. Mac was taken aback. That was weird… then again, it was a secret underground base with aliens…
OOOOOOOOOOOO
They all grinned as Mac told his story. The only thing that differed between him and the two Jacks was that MacGyver would not fire a weapon, but they already knew that much.
"So how did I get stuck with you two?" Mac asked after he finished. They two shrugged.
"Well see, we were checking out this site for a bomb threat," Daniel started to explain, "and the colonels here and I went to check the perimeter. I thought I'd seen something and went to check it out. When I turned around again, they were gone!" The archeologist shrugged. MacGyver nodded, this was pretty strange to him. He was still wondering about the younger version of O'Neill… Not only that, he hadn't quite figured out what the military was hiding in this mountain either. It was probably some new ultra-destructive weapon. Figures…
O'Neill seemed to recognize MacGyver's curiosity about the situation, either that or that's what the man would have done. "Sir, can we tell him what's in the base he's standing in?" Hammond sighed. He sounded exasperated; the general didn't relish telling yet another civilian about the Stargate program. The three remaining team members, Daniel, Teal'c and Sam, looked eager to know if their commanding officer would let this look-alike in on "the secret." They looked at each anxiously. The two humans looked interested and Teal'c (what an odd name) was impassive. Mac felt that they accepted him, somewhat.
"Yes, I would like to speak to you about that colonel… colonel. In my office. Now." Hammond walked off in the given direction; the two colonels made a face and followed like unwilling puppies. The door slammed shut and Mac was left with the major, the archeologist, and the dark skinned man with a funny tattoo.
Well, this was awkward. There was Mac, another Jack twin, standing in a deep underground base, standing next to people that were best friends with his doppelganger. The major, Sam Carter, kept stealing glances at him. He deduced that there was something going on between O'Neill and her. Mac also knew that this was highly illegal, that is fraternization in the military. Poor woman had to be extremely confused, emotionally, and a bit freaked out.
Although, being the woman she was, she'd never admit it.
