A/N: Hi! Now, I would have posted this sooner... if my dearest older sister who still lives in the house had the time to edit it when I was finished. (Breathes in deeply) Okay, anyways, thank you so much for the reviews!

(Beta: So tired… my apologies for all the mistakes… I tried to get most of them.)

Aww... poor Morgann, now I feel really bad...

SG-Fan edited this! (I forgot to put that in the last couple of chapters... oh well)

Ch 6: Interrogation

The door burst open, and Calvin along with two other men, entered the room. Calvin stared at Sam with pity in his eyes. He then looked at Jack; he reached out his hand and pointed at him. "Him." He told the other two men. They nodded and walked over to Jack, they grabbed his arms.

"Hey! What's going on here?" Daniel demanded. "What are you doing to him?"

They ignored him; they began to drag Jack towards the door. Jack didn't even put up a fight; he just let them take him.

"Sir?" Sam's soft voice called to him.

Jack looked back at Sam before he was dragged out of the room. "Take care of her," he told his team.

Calvin swallowed; he turned and left the room.

Felipe shook his head. "This is not good… this is not good at all."

----

The two men pushed, shoved and pulled Jack down the hall as quickly as possible. They arrived at a two-door entrance. Calvin then walked up to the doors and placed his hand on it. A minute later the doors opened and revealed somewhat large room with that was painted in red and gold. A large chandelier hung from the ceiling. The room was empty except for a chair and desk that was in the middle.

"Nice place," Jack muttered as they pushed him towards the desk. "Could use a little more furniture before I could call it home."

"Silence." A man from behind the desk ordered. He stared coldly at Jack then looked up at Calvin. "And this is…?"

"This one is called O'Neill." Calvin answered. "He is the leader of the ones who tried to escape."

The man looked down at Jack once again. "O'Neill…"

"Actually, it's Jack… Jack O'Neill.."

The man seemed annoyed at Jack's outburst. "I am called Keegan, you will refer to me as only Keegan, is that understood?"

Jack nodded. "Only Keegan? … Just making sure I got that right."

Keegan stood up. "So… what are you doing here?" he picked up a piece of paper. "You are not from this planet."

"No, not exactly, from a little planet, far, far away." Jack said. "It's way out there, I don't think you've heard of it."

"That may be, but what is it called?"

"Well… people call it different things… it can be, home to one or… hell to the other."

Keegan slammed his fist on the desk. "I want a true answer!"

"Why?" Jack snapped. "Why does it matter where we're from?"

Keegan straightened. "You are not like us. You are more advanced. We would like to become allies."

"Allies?" Jack asked unbelieving. "Are you serious? You want to be allies with us? Why? Why would you want to-"

"Because, you are more advanced with us, together," the man's eyes glowed with fervor, "we could be strong."

"More like… together we would conquer other worlds… is that what you mean?"

Keegan looked down. "I wish to speak to the leader of your world."

"Not happening." Jack said instantly.

Keegan cocked his head. "And why is that?"

"For one thing, we wouldn't want to be allies with someone who starts a war with its own people." Jack said. "And for another we-"

"We did not start a war between them! And they are not our people!" Keegan shouted.

"What are you going to do with us?" Jack asked.

"I will find out the information I need." Keegan said simply. "We do not want to harm our people, or their people. We simply want to run this world, is that so much to ask? All we tried to do was show them who was in control."

"By killing hundreds of people…" Jack shook his head with disbelief. "Right, I think they get the picture now. Now that they're all gone."

"That is why we need you." Keegan answered. "You know where they have gone."

"No, I don't know. But I do know that if you don't let me and my people go, people from our world are going to come and rescue us. In that process, many of your people could die. So, why don't you just let us go?"

"I cannot do that."

"Why not?" Jack asked.

"I do not make the decisions." Keegan said. "And even if I did, I wouldn't let you go, you are too valuable."

"Okay, I'll make a deal with you. Let the others that were with me go, and I'll do whatever you want me to do. Okay?"

Keegan shook his head. "I can make you tell me anything I want you to."

"No you can't. I've been under the worst pain imaginable, and yet I didn't tell a thing." Jack said, thinking back to all the times he had been tortured. "You won't get me to talk."

"You want me to let three of your people to go… that is not a fair trade." Keegan said.

Jack hesitated. "Okay… let Carter go, just Carter…"

"The sick one?" Keegan asked.

"Yes."

"Why would I do that? She is more valuable then all of you combined. And you have feelings for her."

"I care about what happens to her, yes, but I care what happens to anyone of my people!"

"But she is different. You have deeper feelings for her."

Jack didn't say anything. "What I feel doesn't matter right now. If it was Daniel who was sick, I'd do the exact same thing."

"Would you? You wouldn't try and get her home too?"

"Of course I would!" Jack shouted. "Please! Just… just let her go."

Keegan thought for a moment. "Bring the sick one here." He ordered the two men standing behind Jack. "Only the sick one."

"What are you doing?" Jack asked, instantly getting worried. "What are you doing?" he shouted.

Keegan turned to him with a smug look on his face. "You say you don't give into torture. Let's see if you do when we torture your friend."

Calvin looked up at up at that, anger flicking across his face before he masked it. Snapping his fingers, he turned and left the room with the two men.

"No!" Jack shouted. "What do you want to know?"

"Where have the others fled?"

"I don't know! I never did!"

"That is not the truth," Keegan said. "But I soon will know it…"

Sam lay on the cold ground that felt somewhat good against her sweaty back. Her eyes felt dry, but they were filled with tears. Where had they taken Jack? What was going on? These questions ran through her burning head over and over. What would they do with him? She swallowed, trying to get something down her dry throat. She looked over at Daniel and Teal'c, who were both leaning against the wall. Daniel seemed as if he was asleep. Teal'c seemed ready to jump up at any minute if necessary.

The door opened, shining a bright light into the room. Sam squeezed her eyes shut to block out the brightness. In walked the two men as before, along with Calvin. They headed straight for Sam, but Teal'c quickly stood up and blocked their way. "You are not taking Major Carter." He said firmly.

Daniel looked up at the men; he slowly made his way onto his feet and stood next to Teal'c.

Sam opened her eyes at the mention of her name. She slowly looked up at the men who looked ready to kill someone. "Teal'c…" she said weakly, "don't do something… stupid."

Teal'c looked down at Sam then back at the men. "Take me instead."

"He does not want you. Move out of their way or they will be forced to harm you." Calvin said, crossing her arms.

Teal'c still did not move. He wasn't about to let someone take Sam without a fight.

Daniel looked carefully at the men. "Leave her alone."

Calvin snapped his figures and nodded to the men. They looked up at Teal'c and quickly drew some kind of weapons out of their pockets. "Move now, or they will be forced into killing you."

Teal'c hesitated for a moment, then sighed deeply and moved to the side.

Daniel swallowed; he slowly took a couple of steps back. "I'm sorry, Sam,"

The two men quickly grabbed Sam's arms, causing her to cry out in pain. Since Sam couldn't hold her own weight, they began to, very painfully, drag her out of the room...

----

Jack sat on the floor, staring at his interrogator. He was sweating like he'd never sweated before. "I don't know where they went." Jack said, suddenly speaking after much silence. "I don't even really know their people! How should I?"

Keegan looked up from a piece of paper on his desk. "Felipe must have told you. Your friends were leaving through the Stargate. Felipe was not with them though. He must have given you an address."

Jack shook his head. "No. We were going to my home planet." He said. "Felipe never told us anything about their planet, only that they were going to it. If you want to know where they have gone so bad, why don't you ask Felipe?"

"All in good time," Keegan said. He heard the doors open; he looked up and smiled slightly.

Jack turned around to see the two men dragging Carter into the room. "Be careful with her!" Jack ordered. "Can't you tell she's sick?"

"You are under no condition to be telling us what to do," Keegan said sharply. "Bring her here."

The two men dragged her up to the desks and let her fall to the ground. Jack quickly scooted over to her, he pushed back some of her hair and felt her forehead. She was burning up.

"Sir?" came a faint voice.

"Carter," Jack answered, almost wishing she were unconscious again.

"Now…" Keegan began, gesturing for several men to pull Jack away from Sam. "Let's get back to business… tell me the planet's symbols or I will hurt her."

Jack looked up at him. "I don't know!"

"Sir… don't tell them… anything." Sam whispered.

"There's nothing to tell!" Jack shouted. "I have no idea what they are! You're wasting your time with me!"

"Perhaps, but I do not think so," Keegan assured him. "I think you will have much to tell me."

"Why do you want the symbols anyways?" Jack tried, hoping to keep his attention away from Carter. "You going to go to the planet and force them to come back here? So you can rule over them? No offense, but that seems a bit-"

While Jack was talking, Keegan nodded to the two men. They withdrew some odd looking weapons and pointed them at Sam. "If you do not tell me in five seconds, I will be forced into harming her."

"Hey! I don't know!" Jack shouted as loud as he could.

"Five… four… three…"

"No!"

"Two… one…" Keegan looked at Jack disappointedly. He snapped his fingers.

One of the men nodded. He fired the some-what looking weapon at Sam, causing her to scream out in pain.

Jack quickly tried to make his way towards her, but one of the men held him back by his shoulders. He struggled to get out of the man's strong grip, but failed miserably. "Let her go!" he shouted angrily. "Please! Let all of them go!" he didn't realize that a few tears spilled from his eyes. "She's not going to be any use to you. Especially not if you kill her."

Sam's eyes slowly opened. "Sir, we're not… leaving you behind." She muttered softly.

"Carter, you're still under my command. I am ordering you, if you guys get the chance to go… go."

Sam shook her head slightly, causing her to feel dizzy. "No, sir," She said firmly. "If you were in… my place and… me in yours, you wouldn't… leave me behind. Even if you were sick." She tried to sound as if she was stronger then she really was.

Jack knew she was right, but he wasn't about it admit it.

"This is all very touching, but it is leading us nowhere." Keegan interrupted. "Now, I will ask you again, where did they go? What planet are they on?"

Jack sighed in frustration. "You might as well kill me now, 'cause I have no idea. Ask Felipe!"

Keegan nodded slowly. "We will… in time. But he will most likely not betray his people."

"Smart guy," Jack muttered.

Keegan folded his hands. "I am losing the very little patience that I have with you, O'Neill."

Jack sat there in silence, staring at Sam. Her eyes were closed, probably because of the light in the room. Her leg was bleeding from, probably from when they shot her.

"O'Neill?"

Jack slowly focused his eyes on Keegan. "You… is it hot in here?"

Keegan nodded to the man holding back Jack's arms.

"No, seriously!" Jack said. "It's getting hotter, isn't it?"

The man behind him grabbed his weapon with one hand, and smashed it down onto Jack's head. Jack groaned and fell to the ground.

"Bring me the next one."
