Spacegates and Starships
by Slayersgrl
A Stargate SG-1/Doctor Who Crossover

Summary: A chance encounter on a random planet leads a pair of intergalactic wanderers straight into the heart of Stargate Command. Events quickly become complicated in a hurry. And there's something not quite right about Lab 32…
Disclaimer: Both shows absolutely in no way belong to me. I just decided to squish the two together for my own amusement.

Chapter 3

One hour later found the fully assembled SG-1 impatiently waiting for their guests in front of the Stargate. "Where are they?" Jack grumbled. He had finally trained Daniel to show up on time for missions and now here he was waiting yet again. He was contemplating a "search and destroy" operation when the pair leisurely wandered into the gateroom.

"I still don't understand why you never have to change your clothes," Rose mumbled as she examined the unflattering military uniform she had been coerced into wearing. But her comment was completely ignored as the Doctor enthusiastically inspected his newly repaired coat. He knew he had put that function on his sonic screwdriver for a reason.

"Took ya long enough…" Jack said as he cast an irritated glare in their direction. Rose smiled apologetically in return while the Doctor continued to be oblivious to the people around him. Thankfully, the Stargate sprang to life and soon the room was illuminated by the sparkling light of the event horizon.

Teal'c and Sam went through first followed immediately by Jack. This left Daniel with the unspoken task of babysitter. He silently indicated that the two should go ahead before him.

Rose calmly walked up the ramp and stopped before entering the wormhole. Daniel watched in amusement as she glanced over at the Doctor to see a huge grin of excitement plastered on his face. Rose's smile grew to equal his and together they eagerly stepped through the rippling surface.

Daniel sighed and quickly followed. With an entrance like that, he knew those two were going to be trouble. As he emerged on the other side of the galaxy, he immediately noticed that the rest of his team had already secured the area and were attentively scouring their surroundings for danger.

Then he noticed that Jack wasn't really staring at the surroundings, more like staring at a certain someone. Who was staring back. Daniel sighed in annoyance. It was like watching two alpha males declare their dominance. A moment later they appeared to have reached an agreement. Jack immediately began issuing orders.

"Carter and I will take point. Daniel and Teal'c, you watch our six," Jack paused to emphasize his next statement. "As for you two, stick close and try not to get lost." He realized that they apparently had experience with interplanetary travel, but this was his mission and he was going to try his hardest to make sure it went smoothly, for once. And if that meant keeping a tight leash on the Doctor and his companion, then that was what he was going to do.

"Aye aye Colonel!" Rose replied with a lopsided grin and a sloppy salute, a response which went completely ignored by its recipient.

Jack had already started leading the group toward the nearby tree line. Then he paused and with great reluctance turned back. The Doctor calmly pointed in a direction off to the left. "Right, I knew that," Jack calmly stated as he shifted directions.

The next half an hour was spent in relative silence. The group quietly made their way through the forest surrounding the village and its temple. There were a few close calls with some patrols, both human and Jaffa. It didn't appear that the locals were actively looking for them. They probably considered their former prisoners to be long gone through the Stargate. But the group unanimously decided to hide in the bushes until the patrols passed to avoid any messy confrontations.

"So what exactly are we looking for?" Daniel asked, finally breaking the silence.

"You wouldn't believe me if I told you," Rose replied.

"I've seen quite a few spaceships. I think I have some idea as to what they look like."

"Trust me," the Doctor interrupted. "You've never seen anything like the TARDIS." A brief moment later Daniel couldn't help but agree with him.

SG-1 couldn't help but stare. "You are joking, right?" Jack finally asked. He wasn't really sure what he had been expecting, but it sure as hell wasn't a blue police box sitting in the middle of a small clearing. He had expected the Doctor's spaceship to look more… shiplike.

"What is a police public call box?" Teal'c asked. He had never seen a ship such as this one. It didn't exactly look capable of flight let alone traveling through space.

Unfortunately, he never received an answer due to the arrival of some uninvited guests. One of the village patrols had spotted their location. They could already hear the inexperienced search party crashing through the foliage to reach them. It wouldn't be long before a much more dangerous Jaffa patrol showed up.

The Doctor and Rose immediately sprinted for the TARDIS. The Doctor had just slipped his key in the lock when he heard shots being fired behind them. They had run out of time. The pair turned back to find their military escort desperately trying to hold off several angry villagers and several more Jaffa. SG-1 had to avoid an array of weapons fire from both staff weapons and zats. Their enemy apparently didn't care whether they were captured dead or alive.

Seeing an opening, Sam dashed across the short clearing to the small blue box. "You sure you can get this thing off the ground?" she asked, obviously doubting the capabilities of such a strange looking ship.

"We can be on our way as soon as you get the rest of your team over here," the Doctor replied as he slipped inside followed quickly by Rose.

"You sure there's enough room for all of us?" Sam asked. But her eyes had already supplied the rather shocking answer. "Sir," she quickly relayed to Jack over her radio, "I think I found our escape plan."

Jack glanced across the clearing to see Sam motioning for them to join her. She had clearly lost her mind if she thought all six of them were going to fit in that tiny box. But she hadn't been wrong in the past, so who was he to argue. Besides, it was shaping up to be the best plan they had anyway.

Jack and Teal'c continued to provide cover fire while Daniel made the first attempt towards the TARDIS. He was quickly followed by his teammates. Unfortunately, luck didn't seem to be with him that day. He only made it halfway when he was hit with a zat. Teal'c, seeing his friend fall to the ground unconscious, immediately sped up to pick him up into a fireman's carry.

"Hurry!" Sam called out as she held the door open for them. The Jaffa had already entered the clearing and were chasing after their retreating prey.

Suddenly a shot from a well aimed staff weapon flew through the open doorway. The blast hit the console only inches from where the Doctor had been standing. Sparks went flying and the lights flickered for a brief moment before returning to full strength.

"What are you doing?" the Doctor yelled, his attention immediately focused on the damaged section of his ship. "Close the door!" The sparks were currently hindering his investigation. He could only hope it hadn't damaged anything vital.

Sam was more than happy to comply with his demand a moment later when all three members of her team barreled through the doorway. She pulled the door shut and took a step back as she heard another blast smash against the side wall.

"Hurry up and get us out of here!" Jack yelled in frustration. He wasn't exactly sure how long the Doctor's crazy ship would hold up under the attack. Although, a ship that was considerably larger on the inside than the outside should have a certain level of defense capability…

"I'm trying!" was the harrowed response. The Doctor now realized something important must have been damaged by the blast. Or the TARDIS was being her usual self and was simply refusing to do as he asked. Several button pushes and a few well placed kicks later, he finally managed to get their coordinates programmed into the now smoking display screen.

"Here we go," he said as he pressed one last button. The TARDIS shook violently as the blue box disappeared from one end of the galaxy and rematerialized under a mountain in Colorado, much to the surprise of the gateroom staff.

"What just happened?" Sam asked once the vibrations had stopped. She immediately noticed the sounds of attack had stopped.

Rose was about to provide some sort of explanation until she took one look at the Doctor. He had a look that somehow combined shock, anger, horror, and amusement all in one. He was silently staring at the smoldering console, obviously trying to formulate a plan for repairing his beloved ship. "Perhaps we should continue this conversation somewhere else. I think the Doctor is going to be a little preoccupied for a while," Rose replied instead. "Besides, I think we should get Daniel to the infirmary." She was pleased to see him starting to come around, but he was still somewhat disoriented from the effects of the zat.

She then walked over to the doors, intending to go locate a medical team. Thinking there were Jaffa on the other side, the conscious members of SG-1 yelled at her to stop. However, the only sight to greet her was the business end of several automatic weapons.
