Janet watched the sleeping O'Neill children while SG-1 went upstairs to the briefing.
"Colonel, according to our logs, you left Stargate Command ten days ago." General Hammond began.
Jack and Sam looked at each other and then at Daniel and Teal'c.
"What happened on that planet?" He continued.
Flashback:
SG-1 walked through the Stargate, their uncertainties fluctuating like the energy emitted by the unstable wormhole that allowed them access to these many worlds.
Colonel Jack O'Neill, Teal'c and Dr. Daniel Jackson followed Major Dr. Samantha Carter through the Stargate. She had been especially enthralled by this journey because they had finally been able to travel outside that region of the universe that had been primarily explored thus far. Though Jack had already used an eighth symbol for Gate travel, it had taken them this long to generate enough energy to power the Stargate to do it again.
"Carter, where are we?"
"You are on the small planet Aeaea."
Daniel turned around quickly, but there was no one there. There was something about that name that was triggereing something in his memory of his studies of Greece. What was it? He asked himself.
"Daniel, do you want to tell me what's going on?" Jack demanded.
"Jack, I would if I knew."
"There is a village at the bottom of the hill where you are welcome to stay." The voice continued.
"Daniel, dial us home."
He turned around only to find that the Stargate and the DHD had disappeared. "Uh, Jack, we have a problem."
"Fear not, the Chappa'ai will return."
"Who are you?" Daniel asked, looking around for some sign of the mysterious voice.
"A friend. You and your companions may rest and nourish yourselves in the village".
"We're explorers from Earth. We're not Goa'uld." Daniel called.
"If you are not Goa'uld, then why do you travel with a Jaffa?"
"He's a friend. We fight against the Goa'uld."
"There will be no fighting here."
Instantly, the weapons that SG-1 had been holding disappeared.
"Hey! What was that for?" Jack called.
"Jack, you heard her. No fighting."
"Hey, can we at least get a name or something?"
"Go to the village." Replied the voice. "There are rooms being prepared for you as we speak."
"Thank you." Daniel said, walking down the trail to the village.
"Whoa! Danny…we set up camp here." Jack said, forcing the anthropologist to turn around.
"Jack, who knows how long we're going to be here? We should make friends with the locals."
"What do you think, T?"
"Daniel Jackson is correct to be uncertain about the length of our stay here, O'Neill."
"Carter?"
She joined them. "Sir, I agree. Besides, if these people end up being hostile, we'll really need the intelligence on them."
"Carter, our guns just disappeared! How do you think we're going to defend ourselves against hostile villagers?"
"Jack, come on! You were the one with the Black Ops!" Daniel said.
"Oh, for crying out loud! All right, we go to this village and take a look. Then, we decide. Okay?"
"And then, we got to the village…after that first night, things started getting a little weird." Daniel replied.
"And that's the technical term." Jack added.
