Jack sat beside his wife's bed, waiting for the test results. Janet walked in. "Sorry, General, I ran all the tests several times, and they were all inconclusive."
"What? You mean nothing's wrong?" He asked, confused.
"Well, not with her, necessarily. It could be the fetus."
"Unscheduled Off-World Activation!" Came over the intercom and Jack sighed.
"Take care of her 'til I get back."
She nodded. "Of course, sir."
He ran into the control room. "Receiving a transmission?" He asked.
"Yes, sir. It's SG-1."
Daniel and Reynolds appeared and the Stargate deactivated. Jack met them in the Gate Room. "Where are Teal'c and Charlie?"
"Sir, we ran into a little snag." Reynolds reported.
"What kind of snag?" Jack asked, his tone threatening.
"Look, Jack, we need Sam to come through the Gate." Daniel replied, urgently.
"You know she's restricted from Gate travel. I'll send Lee…" Jack said, turning.
"No, Jack. We showed up at the planet with the repository of Ancient knowledge."
He stopped mid-stride. "You mean the one we blew up?"
"No…the other one."
Jack turned around, swiftly. "The entry-less room?"
"Yeah, pretty much."
"So, where are Teal'c and Charlie?"
"Well, Charlie got…stuck. We found something…interesting."
"I'm listening," He told the archaeologist.
"Some writing showed up on the floor surrounding the ring of text we translated last time. It says 'Our legacy: For the child of three who will unify the universe.'" Daniel quoted.
"And?"
"And then Charlie got trapped between these beams of energy and this hologram…Jack, she was an Ancient."
"So…" Jack prompted.
"She said that the child of three was the Ancients' only key to survival."
"What the hell is this child of three?" Jack asked, raising his voice.
Reynolds looked down at the ground and Daniel looked away before looking back at Jack. "I, uh, well, we…Charlie and I…I think it's the infant that you and Sam are expecting."
"Come again?" Jack asked.
"That's why we need Sam. The hologram said that we need to bring the mother of the child of three to the…temple, for lack of a better term, or the child will die…"
Jack paled and ran to the infirmary. Daniel followed him. "What's going on?"
They arrived to find Janet and Thor assessing the situation. "She's preparing to miscarry, General."
Jack turned to Daniel. "Okay, tell me everything you know about this!"
"I did…other than the fact that we think the child of three is an indication of genetic makeup other than anything."
Jack looked back at his wife, who had still not awakened from her faint.
"Thor, can you transport her to this…room with the Ancient repository?"
"Indeed, O'Neill."
"Do it."
