Chapter 4
2 Months Later
"Please Janet. I know it's risky, but I'll be fully healed in twenty-four hours. I can't wait two and a half years." Janet just stood at the end of her bed, looking horrified at her friend. "Come on, I've been a good girl. I want my life back, I want my lab back, my work back and I want to go fishing. Now." She smiled at that. She'd told Janet about her and Jack but no one else. But if Janet knew, that meant that Daniel knew. And Daniel had a loose mouth so the grapevine probably knew. Ah hell the whole base probably had an inkling!
"Look Sam." Janet was wringing her hands, not knowing what to do. "I know why you want to do this, I would too. But we don't know enough about long term affects and there's withdrawal symptoms."
"That's only because O'Neill was put in it repeatively." Sam answered back firmly. She was determined and there was no stopping Major Samantha Carter once she was on that path! "Please Janet. I'm sick of living a half life." She finished in a whisper, looking down at her hands. Now she was able to move her fingers and toes. Janet sighed, Sam was right, but trying to pass it by Hammond. The thought alone was enough to make her want to sit with her head between her knees. Her heart was siding with her friend, but her doctor brain was already calculating every risk. She sighed, darn that curious side of her.
"Ok." She finally said. "But there's just one problem, we don't HAVE a sarcophagus." Sam smiled.
"One step ahead of you Janet."
