General Hammond stood staring at the spot where Jack and Smartie once stood, when he heard a little yap, he turned his head to see Smartie stood in the doorframe of his office, the little white dog wagged his tail and waited for George to come towards him. George walked over to the dog and picked up his leash and was about to go looking for Jack when he felt the tug of a leash. He looked down at the dog that was looking in the corner at Jack, Jack was a nervous wreck. George had no idea what it was like to live with a man like that but it explained why the older Jack took a long time to trust anyone. George walked over to Jack and sat down beside him
"I'm not going back" Jack whispered not taking his head out of his knees
"I know, I won't let them take you" he replied, he would try everything in his power to make sure that would never happen
"He'll find me one day, did the older me get revenge?" Jack asked lifting his head from his knees
"Revenge for what?" George asked, jack bowed his head
"For my mother" he said simply
"What did he do?" George gasped, something was not right here
"he killed her" Jack said tearing up again,
"General Hammond" said someone from behind him
"Teal'c" George said simply
"I heard Colonel Simmons was here, is there anything you require"
"Yes Teal'c" he frowned
"Where's Dr Jackson?" Teal smiled
"He is with JacobCarter"
"Ok, Teal'c can you take Jack there aswell, make sure he stays with Jacob" Teal'c bowed and complied and waited for Jack to get up while Smartie once again jumped up at Teal'c
"Come O'Neill, you must help me" Teal'c said rather undramatically. Jack smiled and got up. Smartie immediately went to Jack and started to jump up and Jack caught him. It seemed to Jack that Smartie knew how to help. So Jack gave the dog a cuddle and walked out, Teal'c followed close behind.
The walked back to the VIP room where Jacob was sat with Sam on his knee and Danny sat in the corner on his own reading a book Jacob looked up while Sam was still immersed in the cartoon,
"Jack? Are you ok?" he asked
"Yeah I'm fine" he said shrugging it off and walking over to the corner with Danny
"Hey" Jack said to Danny
"Hey" Danny said looking up slightly from his book
"What you reading?" Jack asked
"A book on Norse mythology" Danny stated
"What like Thor?" Jack asked Danny looked up surprised
"How do you know about Thor?"
"I read a book on him" Jack said shrugging
"Cool, you wanna read a book on all the Norse Gods" Danny said, he finally had someone to talk to
"Yeah go on then" Jack said and Danny handed him the book, which Jack opened and started to Read. During the hour Teal'c joined Sam and Jacob watching bugs bunny while Jack and Danny continued to read a book. It seemed like hours later but Jacob finally got up and announced they should go get some dinner. Jack looked at hs watch it was 1600, 2 hours after the visit from his father. He put his book down and jumped out of his seat as Danny did the same except fell out his seat. Jack laughed and offered Danny a hand and they ran out of the room towards the commissary when they stopped having no idea where the commissary was, but Jack grabbed Danny's arm knowing exactly where it was. They reached the commissary and the kids immediately grabbed a bowl of jelo each as the cook smiled, Jacob was not in the mood to fight with 3 seven year olds over what they should be eating so he just let them get on with it. There was a little bark from outside the commissary doors
and Jack ran to open them, he opened the door to see Smartie wagging his tail at Jack and ran inside to wreak havoc over everyone trying to eat. And he went immediately for Teal'c jumping up and down as the Jaffa tried to eat his piece of pie. Jack started laughing and reached into his pocket to find the dog treats but stopped as he couldn't find anything except a pack of Smarties, So Jack walked over to the lady and asked for some chicken which they happily gave him, after he had said his thank yous he walked back over to the table and started tearing up bits of meat for Smartie to eat, making sure there wasn't any pieces of bones for him to choke on. During the hour they were greeted many times by people wishing to comment on how cute the mini SG1 looked and how adorable Smartie was. They were currently talking to one of the scientists Sam worked with when a hush fell over the commissary. Jack turned around and nearly fell off his chair in shock; he was horrified at who was at the entrance of the commissary. His father. Also there was Colonel Simmons with an envelope in his hand but Jack was too busy shitting himself with fear as his father noticed him and strode towards him, Jack stood up
"Who's that?" Sam whispered to Jacob who was busy watching Jack who was already beginning to shake, Jack's breathing was beginning to get faster each time his father took a step closer
"Jonathon" his father said simply
"Father" Jack replied, Teal'c did not look impressed as he stood and placed him self in front of Jack
"T" Jack began but his father sent him a glare
"So you think to protect my son from his father?" Alan questioned
"Indeed I do, you are a disgrace to man" Jacob set Sammy down on the chair next to him and went to stand beside Teal'c; he had no proof but had an idea what was going on here. Jack continued to look frightened as Danny and Sammy looked on confused
"You will leave now" Jacob said
"I don't think so General Carter" Simmons said finally stepping forward
"I have an order given by the vice president that Jack should be released into his father's care and Daniel Jackson will go with him" Danny looked confused even more Jack spoke
"Um No" Jack said
"What did you say?" His father asked trying to step forward but found Teal'c in his way
"I'll go with you but Danny stays in the care of Jacob Carter"
"The order from Vice-president States you and Daniel are to come with me. Now"
"Someone call general Hammond and security NOW" Jacob shouted as an SF got onto the phone immediately
They stood sneering at each other for several Minutes when General Hammond and Security arrived
"What's going on here?" he asked when Simmons handed him the note, he read it twice and looked at Jack his eyes were full of sympathy
"No" Jack whispered he knew that look, he looked for an escape route but found one, he let go of Smartie for and grabbed Danny
"JACK" Danny shouted but was pulled along by Jack who was now running away from the commissary, suddenly Jack stopped and opened a store room closet, and he pulled Danny into a dark corner and sat down
"Jack, what the hell is going on, why can't we go with your dad?" Danny asked
"He's a bad guy, Danny, he doesn't like kids he hits them" Jack said
"He hit you?" Danny said disbelievingly the door suddenly opened and Jack tried to hide Danny but they were both yanked hard by the arms and thrown out into the hall. He went for Danny but Jack stood in front f him. Something his brother had tried to do.
"Move Jack. It's time he learnt how to behave" Alan sneered pushing Jack away, but jack had a firm on Danny and pulled him with him. Jack looked around for Jacob, Teal'c, Hammond, and Smartie. Anyone! But no one was around
"Fine we'll deal with this at home" He said grabbing Jack and Danny and pulling them along. The guard on the surface was slumped unconscious when they reached there. Alan stormed into the car park and yanked open the car door throwing Jack and Danny in and getting in the drivers seat
They reached the house in roughly 15 minutes as Alan got inside he slammed the front door and punched Jack straight in the nose
"That's for disobeying me" he punched him again
"That's for answering back" He punched his again
"That's for running away" Jack was now clutching his nose trying to stop it from bleeding while his eye watered from the punch. Jack's dad pushed Jack aside easily and went for Danny. Jack stepped in his way earning him another punch
"That's for getting in my way" he sneered, Jack's left eye was beginning to bruise and his nose continued to bleed and his other eye which was the target of the last punch was still red
"Get out of my site both of you, your bleeding on my floor" he sneered and Jack grabbed Danny again before running up the stairs and locking themselves in the bathroom. Jack leant over the sink as Danny stood there quivering slightly
" There should be in the cabinet over there" he said not looking up but pointing over to the left wall, while Danny searched for whatever he could to help Jack, Jack tried to compose himself
"I will not cry. I will not cry" he repeated over and over inside his head
"There's nothing in there Jack" Danny breathed as Jack started to run some water. When the sink was full Jack dipped his head in the water
"MY GOD THAT STINGS" he screamed inside his head, as the blood began to wash off. He lifted his head out and dried his head before looking in the mirror. He was a mess; he had 2 black eyes and what looked to him as a broken nose.
"Will he hurt you again?" Danny asked fiddling with his hands
"Yes, he'll try and go for you, but I wont let that happen" Jack promised turning to look at him. There was a loud bang on the door
"OI, THERES DINNER OUTSIDE THE DOOR" shouted a voice outside; they waited until they heard heavy footsteps and then the loud noise of a TV being turned on before opening the door. There outside were 2 slices of cold pizza and a carton of juice. Jack grabbed the Pizza box and Juice before running to a bedroom that WASN'T his fathers; he shut the door and put a chair against the door before sitting on the 1 bed and handing Danny a slice of pizza, they each took a bite and made a face before each taking a small sip of juice
"What are we going to do?" Danny asked scared
"We need to contact the General, we'll go for the phone at midnight" Jack said getting of the bed
"Go to bed Danny" Jack said, Danny climbed up and looked up at him
"Where are you going to sleep?"
"I'm not, I'm going to make sure dad doesn't try anything" Jack said Danny shuffled over
"I'm going to help" Danny said and Jack jumped up.
The hours trickled by and Jack heard the footsteps come and go by as his dad went to the toilet then finally to bed; he looked to his side to see Danny curled up asleep beside him. Jack waited another hour (well by his time it was) before waking Danny up but the time came and he gently shook him awake
"Jack, wha" Danny said sitting up and rubbing his eyes
"It's time" he whispered and got up slowly and silently moving the chair that was blocking the door before opening the door and walking downstairs. He walked over to the table which was littered with beer cans, Chinese food boxes and Pizza boxes and picked up the phone,
"Hello Phone directory how can I help you?" Came a voice at the other end
"Um I can I have the number for Cheyenne Mountain base complex" he said
"Is this a wind up?" The women asked
"No ma'am, I need to speak to my Uncle George. He works there" Jack said, the women on the other end paused. She couldn't hear any laughing
"Ok patching you through
Jack pulled the phone away from his ear to stare at Danny who was standing in the middle of the room for everyone to see
"Go find somewhere to hide" Jack ordered in a whisper. Danny nodded and hid behind the couch
"Cheyenne base complex" The new voice said
"I need to speak to Major General George Hammond immediately" Jack whispered in another order
"Who is this?"
"I don't have time for this, airman. Put me though now" Jack said the last part louder and whimpered as he heard noises upstairs
"Hammond" came another voice; he'd been patched through w hen he hadn't noticed
"George?" Jack asked
"Jack?" George asked
"General you gotta help us" Jack pleaded
"Where are you?" he asked Jack whimpered again
"We don't know" Jack said voice shaking
"Hold on son, we'll get a trace. Just stay on the line" Jack nodded even though he couldn't see him
"Jack" Danny whispered from behind
"What?" Jack asked and Danny pointed to a shadow creeping down the stairs
"Oh shit! General Help" Jack pleaded down the phone
"Hang on Jack were coming" George said, but Jack wasn't listening he was already in action, he ran towards Danny but was stopped by his father in front of him
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING OUT" he shouted Jack winced he had the mother of all headaches, Jack didn't answer except he bent down and slid the phone through his legs towards Danny, who grabbed it
"DANNY TAKE THE PHONE TO THE BATHROOM AND LOCK THE DOOR, DON'T OPEN IT TO ANYONE EXCEPT ME OR TEAL'C DON'T HANG UP" Jack shouted as he ran at his father. And Danny ran faster than he ever had towards the bathroom before slamming it and locking it firmly
"General?" Danny asked down the phone
"Danny? Is that you?" Danny whimpered as he heard cries and thuds downstairs although he couldn't tell who's they were
"Yes," He quivered
"Where's Jack?" George asked
"I don't know what's happening, he told me to run and hide so I did and I think there fighting" Danny said as fast as he could
"It's ok Danny we know where you are, were coming" George said
"Bring Teal'c and hurry" with that the phone went dead and Danny waited
Jack was hitting Alan as hard as she could and anywhere his arms could reach, but Alan started laughing at Jack which made him even madder but Alan had the upper hand and kicked Jack in the abdomen launching him across the room, into a wall making him cry out in pain, he picked himself up and ran towards him but Alan grabbed him by the throat and pulled him close
"After you're dead, I'm going after your little friend" Jack froze,
"He's going to kill me!" Jack thought but then remembered the second part
"He's going after Danny" Jack didn't look happy but head butted him. Alan dropped Jack and grabbed his nose as Jack rubbed his head, Jack as the first to recover and ran towards him again and kicked him, he kicked him as hard as he could in the shins. Alan however didn't seem effected by this and grabbed Jack's arm twisting it round and using that grip to pin him against the wall, Jack cried out as he heard a snap, his arm was broken. Again. It wasn't the first time it had been broken and Jack had the feeling it wont be his last. Alan out his hands around Jack's neck and squeezed. Jack panicked his Dad was actually going to kill him, he'd always used Jack as a punch bag, he knew his dad was capable of murder but he hoped he wouldn't be his next victim. For some reason Alan let go and Jack fell down, Alan however picked him up again and whispered
"I'm going to make your friend watch" Jack looked at him wide eyed but was hauled upstairs by the front of his t-shirt; he was thrown against the bathroom door. Causing Danny to jump from inside the bathroom.
"OPEN THE DOOR KID" Alan roared while keeping hold of Jack
"DON'T DO IT DANNY" Jack shouted and was thrown against the wall landing on his broken arm causing him to scream
"OPEN THE DOOR OR I'LL KILL HIM" Alan shouted, Danny started to fight an internal battle, while Alan grabbed jack round the neck again and slowly started to squeeze
"DON.T" Jack managed to gasp out but was unsure if Danny heard him, Alan got annoyed even further and rammed Jack's head against the bathroom door
"OPEN THE DOOR" He shouted Jack this time couldn't shout at Danny, he just hoped Danny would stay in there, Danny didn't open the door which earnt Jack another head butt against the door
"LAST CHANCE OPEN THE DOOR" Alan shouted
"FREEZE" shouted a voice from behind them, Alan spun round to face a cop with a gun, Jack's eyes widened at the gun and winced as his father pulled him in front to use as a human shield
"We had reports from next door of shouts and bangs and I CAN see clearly what's going on here" he said still holding a firm grip on the gun as he looked at the bloodied child, who had 2 swollen eyes and a possible broken nose
"Drop the kid" he said
"FINE" Alan shouted and threw Jack into the Cop who both fell down the stairs.
"Kid? Kid?" The cop asked rolling the child's body of him. The kid was a mess. His face was swollen and his head was cut and bleeding. Before he had a chance to check for internal damage he was thrown against the wall with a hand against his throat
"What have you done to O'Neill?" The deep voice boomed
"Murray! He a cop!" Another voice said and giant released him
"I apologize" the man said
"Detective, my name is General Hammond was there anyone else here?" the General asked
"There was a man but he ran off after throwing the kid at me"
"We have him, don't worry he jumped out the window and Murray here knocked him out" he said looking at Murray who had a giant smile on his face
"Oh yeah, He was shouting through the door" The detective added as Teal'c rushed up the stairs, while Hammond saw Jack was ready to be taken back to Cheyenne
"Danny Jackson?" Teal'c boomed through the door
"T?" came a quiet voice through the door
"It is I, Will you come out?" he asked, slowly but surly the door knob slowly turned and Danny opened the door, to Teal'c Daniel looked unhurt but he was pale, shaking and his face was stained with Tears he also had blood on his clothing making Teal'c's eyebrows raise higher than usual
"I'm not hurt" Danny said immediately
"It's all Jack's"
