Chapter Four

"JONATHAN, JACOB AND DANIEL, GET OUT OF THAT TREE NOW AND LEAVE THAT POOR CAT ALONE" Sam yelled up at her sons, who at the moment were sitting in a old oak tree in their uncle's backyard holding the next door neighbor's cat upside down over thin air.

"Oh no, she used our full names, she must be really mad" moaned Danny as he started down the tree. His brothers followed him in silence, with JJ carrying the cat.

Once JJ's feet were firmly on the ground the cat took off, seeking safety.

"What do you think you were doing?" Sam demanded of her triplets.

"We just wanted to see if it was true about cats' always landing on their feet," replied Jake as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

The boys were saved from a scolding as the phone rang. Thinking that her brother was out, her niece and nephew were both at school and Mark's wife Lindy was at work, Sam raced in to grab the phone. But as she got there Mark appeared.

"Got it Sis" he said, picking up the hand piece.

Shrugging her shoulders Sam headed back to her boys.

"Hello Mark Carter speaking".

"Hello Mark, this is your father." Jacob answered after a slight pause.

"George said you had called" Jacob continued.

"Um. Yeah… Dad I don't know if I should be telling you this… but Sam turned up late last night with the triplets" Mark said hesitantly

"Mark… What is so worrying about that?" asked a now confused Jacob.

There was silence at the other end of the line.

"Mark?" questioned Jacob

"Dad, Sam is here because Pete tried to hurt her"

"WHAT?" roared Jacob, startling the passing airmen.

"Look Dad I know, but that isn't all, he has been cheating on her as well" Mark continued intent on telling the whole story now that he had started.

"That son of a b#" Jacob muttered, the anger radiating from him.

"Dad the reason I called is because I don't think Pete is just going to let this slide, if he comes around looking for Sam, he may be able to talk her into going back… I mean they do have kids together"

Once again silence fell but this time it was coming from Jacob's end.

"I'll be there tomorrow, don't let that son of a b# near her" and with that Jacob hang up.

"Walter, I want both Dr. Jacksons, Teal'c and General Hammond in the briefing room now," order Jacob, heading past the shocked sergeant and up the stairs.

Five minutes later the requested people had appeared, bringing with them the one and only Jack O'Neill. It was the ex general 's turn to be shocked.

"George?"

"Oh Jacob, I didn't get a chance to tell you before. As you can see, Jack is back. SG-7 found him a few days ago. He is staying with the Jackson's until he is back on his feet." Hammond quickly explained.

Smiling Jacob stuck out his hand. "It has been a long eight years Jack. Good to have you back".

Confusion quickly crossed Jack's face but over the last couple of days he had gotten better at masking it. After grabbing the offered hand he replied, "Nice to meet you".

"George, did you forget something?" Jacob asked confusion running over his face again.

"Um. Jacob, it seems that Jack has lost his memory and he has no memory of anyone or his time at the SGC" Hammond said.

"We'll explain it all later, but now why don't you tell us why you called us here?" Hammond continued.

Everybody took his or her seats and Jacob begun.

"I just got off the phone with Mark. It seems Sam is at his place at the moment with the triplets. He said Pete has been beating her up"

"Oh my god" Janet whispered her hand going to her mouth

"That Jerk" growled Daniel

"I can't believe it" Hammond said

Teal'c just sat there, but the glare on his face made everyone tremble.

"Yeah, well Mark believes Pete will be around any day. He thinks she may go back to him. I'm thinking if she as enough friends and family around she may be able to remain strong." Jacob finished looking around the group of five.

"Count me in" Janet jumped in right away

"Me too" added Daniel, asking the General for permission to go.

"Indeed, I will accompany you as well," intoned Teal'c

Everyone turned to O'Neill.

"Sounds like fun" was his response.

"Sorry Jacob but I can't go. I've got to look after the SGC, but let me know if there is anything I can do from this end." Hammond said a sad look on his face.

No one noticed the sergeant, who had been listening at the door. He had been at the SGC when the Major had been there and he couldn't believe what he had heard. He had to tell someone.

Soon everyone in the SGC knew, and many began planning what they were going to do if they ever laid their hands and the jerk that had hurt their favorite SG member. The science departments' favorite idea at the moment was giving him to Felger to use as a guinea pig. While the military part of the SGC were more inclined to send him to one of the many enemies they had made over the years. In general, everyone just wanted to get hold of the jerk and cause him the pain he had caused their Major.

Meanwhile somewhere else on base, Jacob, Daniel, Jack, Janet and the Jackson children were getting ready to leave and go help their friend in need. Admittedly, they hadn't seen Sam for a while, but life was moving quickly and it made it hard to get together. Within twenty minutes they were leaving the SGC to go home and pack. They had just reached the first sign out post when Colonel Dixon raced up to them and handed Jacob a list.

"Sir, we know you probably have a lot of ideas for hurting the jerk responsible for hurting your daughter, but just in case you run out of ideas we have made a list." And with a quick salute he was gone again.

Jacob looked at the paper in his hands. Written across the top in big, black, bold letters was. ' THE MANY TORTURES OF PETE aka THE JERK'

Giving a chuckle, he then headed back to the rest of the group as they made their way out of the SGC.

It only took a few minutes for the Jackson's to pack what was required and for Jack to gather his few belongings, but just as they were leaving a tearful Cassie appeared.

"I just had a huge fight with Shane" she cried as she hugged her mother, her swollen stomach making it difficult to reach.

"Oh sweetie, I'm so sorry" Janet said. "Why don't you come with us? Sam is having a bit of a problem and a few days apart for you and Shane to cool off will be good for the both of you" she continued.

"But Mom, I have nothing to wear" Cassie protested even as she let herself be loaded into the car.

Suddenly what her mom said earlier sank in.

"What kind of trouble is Sam in?"

It was Jack who answered.

"Some guy named Pete is hurting her"

"Oh my God" Cassie whispered, looking a lot like she was earlier.

But Jack was already away in his own thoughts.

Why did it made him feel so angry to hear that this Pete guy was hurting someone called Sam? He didn't even know those people. But maybe this trip would help him find the blonde haired woman he seemed to remember. He had a feeling that if he found her things would fall into place.

An: Hope everyone enjoyed. Please R&R. And let me know what you think.
