Nine Years Later The Congo
They were coming. The SG teams where on their way. Daniel knew they would come. He looked at the sky. The first wave of helicopters had just cleared the ridge. He walked back to where Ant stood waiting. Off ion the distance he saw Agent's Ford and Dodge watching. Five choppers landed. People pored out of them and began pulling equipment off them. A man rushed forward.
"Dr. Jackson?" A young Captain yelled above the whirl of the blades.
"Yes, this way." Daniel said leading him down the hill, away from the noise.
"I'm Captain John Eagle. I'm head of Archeology at the SGC."
"Nice to meet you. This way…."
Someone grabbed Daniel's arm and spun him around. A general stood before him holding his arm. Daniel was about to protest when …
"Space Monkey." The man said.
"Jack." Daniel said staring at him.
"Um, Daniel, I think we should show them to their tent." Ant broke in.
"Yes. This way gentleman." Daniel said leading the way. Daniel drew in a deep breath as he led them into the camp. Around them work had come to a complete stop as everyone looked at the new arrivals. Daniel had known Jack would so up at some point, he had just hoped it would be later.
Daniel sat in his tent, later that night, working on a translation when someone 'knocked'.
"Come in" he said not looking up.
"So..dya miss me?" A familiar voice said jokingly.
Daniel's head shot up and looked at her. Smiling he got up and hugged her." Sam"
"Hey stranger." She said hugging him back.
Daniel stepped back and looked at her. She looked different, but the same." Sam, you look great."
"Not bad for an old married woman with three kids, huh." She said laughing."
"Married? Kids?" Daniel said staring at her.
"Yes, didn't you get any of my letters?"
"Yes, but I…"
"It's okay, Daniel, I understand." She said sitting down beside him.
"Who did you marry?" Daniel asked.
"This grouchy old man." She said laughing.
"I am not old!" Jack said entering the tent.
"Jack." Daniel said not looking at him.
"Daniel, we need to talk." Jack said.
"O'Neill, these writings are strange."
Daniels head snapped up. "Teal'c?"
"DanielJackson, it is good to see you again." Teal'c said giving him a half bow.
"It sure is son." General Hammond stated walking in.
"General Hammond? Janet?" Daniel stared at the woman who followed the General in.
"Hello, Daniel." Janet said as she hugged him.
The tent flap flew open as Ant rushed in. "Um, Daniel, we have a small problem, well more of a big problem."
"What is it Ant?" Daneil asked, guessing what was wrong.
"Well, there are a ton of soldiers wondering around. And, well, this is the e Congo. The workers are kinda freaking out." Ant said.
"I'll talk to them." Daniel said as he left the tent.
"So…you guys know Dr.J?" Ant said looking a little afraid of Teal'c.
"Yes." Teal'c answered looking down at him.
"How'd he get those scars on his back? Ant asked.
"You must ask DanielJackson." Teal'c replied lifting an eyebrow.
"Oh,um, okay. But, look, could you guys go easy on Dr. J. He's been really down since he called you guys." Ant asked.
BOOM
"What the hell?" Jack said pulling out his gun.
Everyone raced outside. A ball of black smoke rolled into the air.
"SHIT!" Ant yelled as he pushed past Teal'c.
"What happened?" Janet asked.
"The main generator just blew. Dr. J is going to be pissed. This means there will be no lights in the tomb. Or anywhere for that matter. No power what so ever." Ant yelled over his shoulder as he went to deal with the frightened workers and blown generator.
Three hours later, everyone in the camp was asleep. Well, not everyone. Daniel sat on the top of the tomb looking out into the jungle.
"Thought I'd find you up here."
"Daniel turned to look at the speaker." Go away, Jack."
"No, Daniel. We need to talk." Jack said sitting down.
"What's there to talk about?' Daniel looked back at the jungle.
"Oh, let see. The weather. You taking off. The Kings. You never writing or calling. The Cubs. Did I mention you never writing or calling?" Jack said sarcastically," the only way we knew if you were alive was from Catharine."
"So?"
"Daniel, you TOOK OFF! We were worried sick. We didn't know where you where or what you were doing. Shit, Daniel, Sam spent four months hacking into files trying to track you down for our wedding. Janet spent six looking for you for Cassie's graduation. But you don't care do you?" Jack said throwing a rock at a tree in anger.
"Shut the hell up, Jack. Just LEAVE ME ALONE!"
Daniel watched Jack storm away. Sam walked up and sat down next to him.
"It really hurt him when you left." She said softly.
"Hum?"
"He took it bad. Said it was his fault. That he was slow. He kept saying you would come back, you always come back. Then you didn't come back. We all thought he was going to have a break down.
"He got over it." Daniel said looking straight ahead.
"Eventually. But, Daniel, it hasn't been the same with out you."
"What?"
"Missions, Downtime, everything. We all miss you. Cassie most of all."
"Yeah, I bet she does. I only ruined her life." Daniel said bitterly.
"What? Daniel, are you telling me you really don't know?"
"Know what?"
"You didn't ruin Cassie's life. She started walking again about six months after you left. She said it was her fault you left and she was going to walk so when we found you she could kick your dumb ass."
Daniel looked at Sam with tears in his eyes." She…she can walk?"
"Yes! Daniel, come home, please?"
Daniel nodded and fell into Sam's arms crying. Sam smiled as tears ran down her face. SG1 was going to be together again. Just in time.
