A few frantic minutes later they were all back in the car. Jonas was lying in the back seat head on Sam's lap. She whispered comforting words and cursed as Jack took a sharp turn.

"Damn it, hang on!" Jack said as he drove like a mad man back to the base. Sam watched as blood trickled out of Jonas' mouth and she once again checked his pulse, it was slow but there. Blood was every were and it made Sam feel sick to her stomach. Suddenly Jonas opened his mouth as if to talk "Sam" he maneged.

"Easy Jonas don't talk." She said her voice quivering."Were almost home just hang in there."

The car came to a screeching halt and Jack and Teal'c jumped out. "Come on lets get him out."Jack said as Sam carefully lifted Jonas' head off her lap and Jack and Teal'c took careful hold of him. Teal'c practically took him in his arms as they all rushed inside.

"Everyone out of the way, move!" Jack called to the people walking towards them they instantly got out of the way looking shocked.

"Janet!" Jack cried as they entered the infirmary.

"Jack what is it...oh my, get him on a bed, I'm gonna need some help in here!" She cried and nurses began to pile into the room.

"Is any one else hurt?" Janet asked seeing the blood on the other team members.

"No its not ours." Jack muttered, there was so much blood.

"I'm sorry but you need to leave now." Said one nurse in particular and began to escort them out, Jack took one last look at his friend before he left. Hang in there Jonas...I cant lose another friend.


Jack sat with at least his fifth cup of coffee in his hands, he was tired and cranky. News of Jonas had yet to reach them. Sam looked near tears since they'd gotten here and Teal'c well looked like Teal'c but he could still see the concern that showed in is eyes. Suddenly Janet appeared looking exhausted. She smiled at them and Jack braced himself for bad news that he hoped wouldn't come. She sighed, then smiled. " Hes going to be fine." Everyone nearly passed out with relief.

" He lost a lot of blood and he had to have surgery to repair the damage..but he should heal up nicely."

Thank god Jack thought and could only guess that's what the others were thinking.

"Now can anyone explain to me what happened?" She asked looking at each team member in turn.

"I would like to know the same thing doctor." Hammond said stepping into the room.

"We had a little trouble at the restaurant sir I'm not sure exactly what happened...you'll have to ask Jonas." Jack said getting up from his seat he winced as the movement jarred his wrist. Janet didn't fail to notice.

"Something wrong Jack?" She asked.

Jack hesitated before he said. "I just twisted my wrist, its nothing."

Janet smirked."I'll be the judge of that come on."

"I want a full report when your ready colonel." Hammond said not sounding to pleased.


"Congratulations colonel you have a sprained wrist." Janet said but Jack wasn't really listening. Jonas was in a nearby bed. He was out, the heart monitor the only thing that proved he was alive.

"Quit beating yourself up about this Jack." Janet said while wrapping Jacks wrist in a ace bandage.

Jack looked at her, how did she know ?

"You had the same look in your eyes after what happened to Daniel." Jack remained silent.

"The difference is Jonas didn't die...and hes not going to."

The words stuck like a knife, but they were true. He couldn't have known that Jonas was walking possible to his death.

"Hey." Janet's voice broke through his thoughts."He's going to be fine, I'll tell you when he wakes."

"Get some rest I don't want you passing out from exhaustion and ending up next to him, same for the others." All Jack did was nod. Janet looked at him worriedly as he left the infirmary.


Jonas woke to the sound of steady beeping. It was kinda annoying and yet through it he could hear people speaking softly.

He's been out for a while you sure he's all right?

Its perfectly normal Jack quit worrying he'll be fine.

I believe Jonas Quinn is awake.

Jonas opened his eyes slowly, and his team mates face's came into view.

" Welcome back to the land of the living." Jack said smiling.

"What happened?" Jonas asked.

"Lets just say dinner didn't go so well." Jack said.

"You had us worried there for a while." Janet said. "A slight infection but nothing to worry about now." Janet checked his vitals and deciding that he was fine, left.

"She's right you had us worried." Sam said. Lying a hand on his shoulder. They were worried about him ?

"Good thing Janet's around to patch you up." Jack said the relief all to noticeable in his voice.

"Indeed." Teal'c said, a slight smile evident on his face.

"We're all glad your OK." Sam said speaking for them all.

No not his team his friends.
