Author's Note: I'm sorry for the delay. I've had a really busy week. I haven't really had the time to type this up. But,I've finally gotten the chance to and heres is the update. I hope you enjoy it.
Disclaimer: I do not own SG-1. I do own Alex, Kira and the Ken'rai.
"Carter!" Jack yelled getting the Ken'rai's attention. Reading his gun, he aimed at it.
"Colonel! Please don't!" Sam yelled back hearing the gun click. "Trust me. I have an idea."
People began to walk away from the gate, when Sam was walking towards the bowl of green paint.
Ken'rai turned to see the green, and ran over to it. Sticking its nose into the bowl, the green color faded into a grey color, a lot like the trees were.
The Ken'rai turned to Sam when it took its nose out of the bowl.
Teal'c began to walk towards her, when the creature bowed its head a little and clicked its tongue approvingly and allowed her to pet its head.
Alex and Kira were the first two villagers to come up to Sam and the Ken'rai.
"See everyone. It isn't meaning to hurt the trees. It needs the color to survive." Sam said to everyone in the general area. "It attacked me because; it wanted the green of my uniform. All you need to do is make more of the paint that we made earlier and you'll be fine."
More and more people began to walk up to the green lizard-like creature to see that it was harmless now.
"Carter? How did you know that would work?" Jack asked as Teal'c, Kira and Alex came out of the group.
Smiling a little she said, "To tell you the truth. I didn't know it would work."
"So you just guessed?" Alex asked her.
"Yep. It turned out pretty well if I do say so myself."
"It did indeed turn out well Major Crater." Teal'c agreed.
"Hey T. You've got a little something growing right here." Jack told him, pointing to his chin.
Raising his eyebrow, he felt his chin with his finger.
"You should leave it. It'll grow into a goatee." Sam told him.
"Very well. I shall leave it."
"Man I am tired." Alex told the group. "I know it's early but I'm going to get some sleep."
"You know that sounds like a good idea." Jack said. "We should keep our promise about staying at your house."
"Oh. It's alright. I don't mind really. I just wanted to talk." He replied. "It's no big deal. You can stay whom ever you'd like to."
"Thanks Alex. We appreciate it." Sam said.
"Carter. You go to Kira's house and lay down. Teal'c and I will be there in a few minutes." Jack told her, pointing in the opposite direction.
"Are you going to check the gate?" She asked.
"Yeah. I highly doubt it's up though." He answered. "Get some rest ok?"
"Yes, sir."
"Oh, for crying out loud!" Jack sighed while walking back to the city. "Still not up yet. How many more day should it take, Carter?"
"Hopefully about one more, sir." She replied.
Her uniform looked more like it did before the Ken'rai scratched it. IT was still was faded green but the scratched were sewed up by a type of thread that Kira had at her house.
"Good. Because it seems like I haven't taken a shower in ages!" He complained. "Your head seems to be feeling better too."
"Yeah, I guess I didn't need the bandages." She said embarrassed. "Teal'c your …uh…goatee is definitely noticeable now."
"It is indeed. He said bowing his head. "We should go back to the city to check on the villagers."
"Good idea T. They've been getting really good at making the different greens." Jack replied. "The trees are back to normal too."
"Yeah, that's true, sir." She agreed.
The surrounding trees were now back to the normal greens. Red, yellow and orange leaves changed back to the evergreen green they were in the summer season.
"O'Neill!" A perky voice said ahead of them. "The mixture you created is great! Our trees are back to normal and the Ken'rai is nicer than we thought. I'll hope to see you again."
Running up to Jack he threw his around him.
"Alex. You do realize that we're not leaving yet right?" Jack asked him pulling away from him.
"Oh. Oops. Uh…well…ummm… We should get some lunch now." He replied embarrassed. Stretching his hands out in front of him, bright green paint could be seen on his palms.
"Alex…Are your hands dry?" Jack asked him?
"No. They're still wet." He replied. "Why?"
"Alex!" Jack yelled softly. "Please tell me that you did not just get green hand prints all over my white t-shirt."
Walking behind him a small "Uh, oh" could be heard behind them.
"Alex! You did didn't you?" Jack yelled annoyed.
"Sir. Please don't hurt him." Sam said to him, trying to calm him down.
Running out from behind them, Alex bowed quickly. "I…uh… have to go." He said quickly before running off.
"Alex! Get back here!" Jack screamed after him, and started chasing after him.
"Colonel, please." Sam said running after jack. "I don't think he meant to."
Slowly following them, Teal'c raised an eyebrow. He put his hands behind him and continued forward.
Author's Note: I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I've wanted to put that last last scene up for so long. Just so that everyone who reads this knows. The next chapter will be the last one. I was planning on making this story longer, but I ended up finishing it faster than I thought.
Please review.
