Tag #12 – S.O.S.
"Look, I can't…I can't tell you what I don't know!"
The sea alien whirled around, snarling. "You will, or you will die!"
Daniel stared in horror as the alien turned around again and left. He shook slightly in fear and exasperation, listening to the noises fading into the soft noises of bubbles rising. Once he was sure the alien was gone, he slowly moved over to sit on the damp steps to think.
"God, I can't believe this is happening…" he muttered, slapping a hand over his eyes. He wracked his brain for any memory of Omoroca, but couldn't quite pin it down. All he knew was that he'd heard her name a long time ago, but nothing in great detail. Nothing memorable.
Slumping in defeat, his thoughts turned to his friends. They were still around somewhere…on the surface? Or did the alien have them captive as well? Neither one sounded quite right, but he couldn't think of where else they might be. "Guys, where are you?" he wondered in despair, unable to shake the feeling of abandonment. Closing his eyes, he pictured them all in his mind, safe and unharmed. Come on guys, he thought to them sadly. Help me. Please, help me.

Jack managed to catch her before she fell over. "What? What is it?" he demanded in concern. "Are you all right?"
"Uh," Sam stammered, "I just had this...image in my mind, it's the second time."
Jack's eyes widened. "What was it?"
"Water," she began. "Under…"
"Bubbles rising?"
Sam nodded in surprise that he knew. "That is correct," Teal'c concurred, "I have experienced it as well."
Jack turned a little in anger. "I'm telling you, something's wrong."
"Yeah," Sam agreed, also getting a little angry. "What's wrong here is that Daniel is dead."
Jack looked back at her. "Is he?"
