I felt like updating… If some parts of the story don't add up, it's more than likely because I don't remember a whole lot of it.
The ensemble went as fast as they could into the car, and before the doors were all closed, San had taken off. The rushing snow could be heard; like a wave about to crash, and looked like a white wave coming from behind them. Sam sped up, and was going well of 160km/h.
Sam had to rapidly decelerate to avoid going off the cliff that had appeared out of nowhere. As they drove on, they saw the avalanche go off the cliff that had almost claimed them. They sighed with relief at their close call.
Sam continued driving, at a more moderate speed. She subtly looked at the passengers. Jacob seemed to be having an 'internal argument'; Jack was an unhealthy shade of white and clutching his arm that had most likely struck the side of the car when going around the last sharp turn; Daniel looked to be concerned, and Teal'c looked as unfazed as ever.
The rest of the drive was continued in silence. After Sam pulled into the lodges' parking lot, she parked with a relieved sigh. Nothing like a uneventful afternoon drive, after all.
No one mentioned anything as they entered the lodge, Jack noticed. Kids were in their own little cliques, playing with assorted games, and the adults who weren't on lunch duty were seated on the couches near the fire, catching up.
When people finally noticed the new arrivals, everyone flocked towards the entrance. The kids swarmed, hugging their Grampa Jacob. Hands were shaken, and people were introduced to each other. Teal'c's bandanna received several strange looks, but once the commotion died down, the kids returned to their games, and SG-1 and the Carter family mingled.
Jack noticed as he was talking to Michelle, that Michael seemed enthralled by his coffee mug, looking concerned, if anything. Bucking up his courage, Jack excused himself from his conversation with Michelle, and made his way over to Michael, which was out of earshot from everyone else.
"Michael, can I have a word?" asked Jack in a tone that left no room for argument.
"Sure," Michael replied, sounding cautious.
"Outside, if you so please." Jack motioned with his head towards the door.
Michael breathed in, then exhaled and nodded.
When Teal'c saw them heading towards the exit, he made a move to follow, but was stopped by Jack's shake of the head.
The doors to the lodge closed with a thunk.
Jack went straight to the point.
"Who are you, and who are you working for?"
