The lab Sam and Daniel found was just as clean as the rest of the facility. And just like the main room, it was practically empty of all furniture, technology, and basically all sign of life.

Sam ran her finger along the top of the long metal table in the centre of the room. "It's like someone just cleaned in here," she commented quietly. "I wish my house stayed the clean when I'm off-world."

Daniel chuckled as he started to look over the room. "You're house wouldn't get so dusty if you'd go home every so often." She rolled her eyes without saying anything and walked around the table to start looking over the other side of the lab. "It's like the stripped the whole place of anything remotely useful," he muttered.

"Daniel," Sam called, looking at a shelf holding a row of books. "What do these say?"

Daniel held up his flashlight to see the writing on the spines. "The Sixth, The Seventh," he muttered, translating out-loud. He pulled the last in the rows off of the shelf and opened in up. "It looks like a complete, detailed medical history... daily activities, things she's said..." He looked up at Sam. "They must have kept records like for Andie and all of her siblings. She lived down her for her own protection, apparently."

Sam nodded slowly. "Protection from what?"

"From Apophis," he said slowly translating some of the lines. "It seems he attacked the planet eighty years ago and then Anubis came back a few months ago looking for something."

"Looking for what?" Sam asked, pulling the books off of the shelf and storing them in her bag. "An empty, underground lair?"

"It was only emptied a few months ago," Daniel pointed out, flipping through the pages. "There are some strange references in here. The Sky People, the Ones Away..."

The symbol on the front of one of the books caught her attention. "Funny. This is the same symbol as the necklace Andie always wears."

Daniel seemed to ignore what she'd said. "Listen to this, 'I believe we've finally figured out how to combine the two minds without causing permanent damage or insanity. For now, The Ninth lives as normally within the Compound, but she will soon be fully replaced with Andromache.'"

Sam looked at him curiously. "I don't like the sound of that. Does it explain what they mean?"

Daniel shrugged. "I'm not quite sure... there's a break in the writing and then it begins with this–'Anubis, the ancient enemy of Bastet, has returned the City and it's only a matter of time before he finds the Compound. We placed the ancient knowledge in the safest place possible– in The Ninth's mind. It was decided she would be left on an unspecified planet to be kept out of the Gou'ald's hands. To be sure she isn't used as a tool of the Enemy, I took it upon myself to push the contents of her memory out of her reach. In the process I fear I may have damaged her eyes, though not permanently... may she recover and return our Ancient knowledge to us. As it is, we will begin the creation process once again, in a place we won't be found this time.'" He snorted and let the book drop down in his hands as he realised his mistake. "It didn't say of... it said at."

Sam looked over his shoulder. "What do you mean, at?"

"Andie isn't the daughter of this religious figure... she's the replacement. The genetic replacement."

"Like a clone?"

"No, not quite.... she'd fabricated. Sort of like Charlie, but not for near as noble a cause. They created her DNA to match Andromache's and they were going to put her consciousness in Andie's body."

"Oh my god." Sam suddenly looked off down the corridor. "Do you hear singing?"

Daniel looked up towards his left. He reached over and smacked Sam's arm to get her attention. "Um, Sam?"

Walked towards them was a young woman in a dress similar to the one Andie'd been wearing when the Nox left her on Earth. Aside from her bobbed hair, she looked identical to Andie.
