A/N:Sorry I've been away so long but I've finally got the third chapter up and I hope you like it.
Rebecca sat on the sofa, watching a hockey game while she waited for her parents to call. She'd just put the twins to bed an hour ago and was hoping her parents would have called by now. Considering the fact that they'd been gone for almost four days and hadn't phoned once. It wasn't that she didn't know how to handle the twins but it wasn't like her parents to be gone this long and not call at all.
Worrying herself sick, Rebecca picked up the phone and dialed her mom's cell which rang for a total of three times and she finally heard it ringing upstairs in her parent's bed room. Rebecca hung up the phone and the dialed her cell number and was surprised at who picked it up.
"General Hammond?"
"Something I can do for you Rebecca?"
"Actually Sir, my mother took the wrong cell and I was just trying to get in tough with her. Why did you answer instead of her, if I may ask sir?"
"She left it in my office on accident and I was planning on giving it back to her when she got back."
"Got back from where, sir?"
" When she gets back from her meeting about launching a new satellite into space." The General's voice was tense and high and it gave Rebecca the impression that he was lying to her.
"Okay could you tell her to call me when she gets out of her meeting?"
"I'll have her do that. You take care now."
"I will General." Rebecca said as she hung up the phone and took a deep breath.
"Something's not right." She said to herself as she went to check on Ryan and Sara, who thankfully were still asleep. Rebecca dialed her best friend, Jake Jackson and his sister Cassie next. Cassie answered the phone.
"Hello?"
"Cassie, I need you and Jake to come over to my house right away."
"Why, what's wrong?"
"I don't know but I think my parents are in trouble."
THIRTY MINUTES LATER:
"Rebecca what has gotten into you?" Cassie asked as she and Jake followed Rebecca,from the entry wayand into the study room, where there was a desk, with a computer, a computer chair and two folding chairs. As Cassie and Jake sat down Rebecca began to explain.
"My dad tell Ry and Sara stories about a warrior, a princess, and two of their friends." Just before Rebecca was going to explain further Jake said, "Becca those are just stories. There's got to be a logical explination for all of this."
"Jake is you're dad home?" Rebecca asked bluntly getting tired of Jake all ready. He always wanted to find the logical explination for things even when he knew there wasn't one and this was one of those times.
"No actually he's on a dig in Egypt or something like that at least that's what mom said when he 'called' last night but I'm getting the feeling that she's……"
"Hiding something?"
"Yeah actually but it can't be related to the stories because my dad would tell me stories too when I was little. I remember one about a guy who thought he was god and he…"
"Ended up being the prince that the princess was suppose to marry and he died in the end." Rebecca said finishing the story for Jake which creeped him out. As far as he knew his father's stories were different from Colonel O'Neill's stories, or at least that's what he had thought.
"How'd you know that?" Jake asked looking at Cassie, who knew the stories as well as where they came from but she wasn't going to say anything. She swore to Sam that she wouldn't tell and that was a promise that she was going to keep
"There's more to the stories than what they appear to be." Rebecca said as she got out a pen and paper and wrote out the names of the characters in the stories and began to think.
"Okay, let's say that my dad is the warrior," Rebecca said thinking out loud, "Mom's the princess and Dr. Jackson is Carlion."
"Why's Sam the princess?" Cassie asked, "Why can't the princess be Janet?"
"Because Cassie, the warrior retires to marry the princess. In real life, my dad did that from my mom. It's got to be her. Okay, so if that's true then since the character's fight they must be in the military or something."
"Wait, doesn't the main guy fly planes?" Jake asked trying to remember.
Just then Sara came into the room rubbing her sleepy eyes and yawing as she asked,
"What's going on?"
"Sara, in daddy's stories does Jonah fly planes?"
"No but Carlin and Tor do. Cassie, Jake what are you doing here?" The little blonde girl asked still trying to rub the sleep from her eyes. She'd heard her sister talking and had gotten up to see what was going on.
"We're helping Rebecca watch you and Ryan." Cassie said coming up with a cover up for what they were really doing. Cassie looked at Rebecca and said, "You know, I think I'll put her to bed, Becca." Cassie walked over to the little girl, scooped her up in her arms and carried her to bed.
The study was silent for a few moments until Jake said, "The Air Force."
"The Air Force? How in the world did you come up with that?"
"Well, Sara said that Carlin and Tor flew planes. What if your mom and dad know people who fly the planesI meantheir in the air force right?"
"Yeah, you're right, Jake. Jack retired but now he's been called back to active duty but why? Why now after five years of being retired?"
"Something must have happened." Jake said mentioning the obvious.
"Wait a second!" Rebecca said as she turned to the computer next to her and began typing.
"What are you doing?" Jake asked leaning over his friends shoulder.
"My dad put a tracking device in my cell phone so that he can keep track of me."
"So? What does that have to deal with where our parents are?" Jake asked confused as he saw Rebecca bring upa cell phone website. Rebecca tended to do things with out explaining them , which would leave everyone in the dark until she was done.
"You know how mom and I have the same phones right?" Rebecca asked looking at Jake, who had the most beautiful brown eyes she'd ever seen. He nodded his head and Rebecca reluctantly turned back to the computer screen.
"Well it turns out that mom took the wrong cell. If we're lucky, I'll be able to find it and eventually find her." Rebecca continued to type on the computer and finally a map came up with a red dot that wasn't moving came on to the screen.
"Got it!"
"Where is she?"
Rebecca looked at the bottom of the map and when she saw the address she said, "Cheyenne Mountain? What in the world would she be doing at Cheyenne Mountain?"
"Maybe that's where she works on the satellites and space telemetry." Jake suggested, which to Rebecca it didn't sound like a bad idea but something about it seemed all wrong.
"Maybe but all the same we've got to go." Rebecca said asshe went to her room and changed into her hiking boots, blue jeans and black tank top and then met Jake and Cassie in the living room.
"Jake you're coming with me and Cassie you take care of Ry and Sara. If they wake up before nine, just let them watch pokemon or something. There's cereal in the pantry and pizza in the fridge if you get hungery. Come on Jake, lets roll." Rebecca said grabbing the keys to her pick up as well as her leather jacket as they walked out the door.
