Turbatus

The men spent the rest of the afternoon wandering around the base, not being able to settle at anything. Many personnel were annoyed at their presence but didn't have the heart to send them away. The news about Sam had filtered throughout the SGC and the whole atmosphere was subdued.

At around 1630 hours, the alarms started blaring. Jack, Daniel and Teal'c ran to the gateroom, mainly because they didn't have anything else to do.

"What have we got Sergeant?" Hammond asked, striding into the room.

"Unauthorized activity sir. No IDC."

"Close the iris."

The metal rim closed with a reassuring thud, only to shudder and strain open again.

"What's going on?"

"I…I don't know sir. It won't shut."

"Teams to the gateroom."

A dozen, fully armed soldiers appeared and pointed their weapons at the newly opened Stargate.

But nobody was prepared for what came through.

Sam, with flashing eyes and cocky smirk, entered the room. She looked every inch the Greek goddess in flowing amethyst robes and elegant jewelry.

Jack's heart jolted but he was only fooled for a second. This was no more Samantha Carter then she was a goddess.

The weapons remained trained on her as she surveyed the room. None of the soldiers knew what to do. In any other case, they would have opened fire by now but even Hammond was hesitant to give the order.

Sam's gaze was one of self satisfaction.

"I did not expect it to be this easy to break through your iris."

It was Sam's voice but with the inhuman distortion that made it so easy to identify the Goa'uld.

"It seems I underestimated my host's intelligence."

Suddenly, the sight of this parasite using his friend's body was too much for Jack. He ran to the gateroom, stopping only to take a gun off an airman in the corridor. He only wanted to shoot her in the shoulder. Immobilize her and take that damn snake out. But the decision was taken right out of his hands.

Sam raised her hand to reveal a glowing ribbon device, ready to use.

On cue, the soldiers opened fire, a hail of bullets heading for the blonde woman. There was an anguished cry from Daniel but Sam smiled wider as an orange force field made the bullets fall to the ground a meter away from her.

Then she gave a casual, almost careless wave of her hand and all of the men flew across the room, hit the floor and didn't move again.

"Thank you for aiding in my experiments. You have proved how simple it will be to conquer your world. To think, you are the famous Tau'ri everyone fears."

Somehow she managed to activate the gate and prepared to leave but Jack couldn't let her go without one more try.

"Carter?" he asked, following her up the ramp.

The light faded from her eyes and she stumbled. Jack held her up as she breathed heavily.

"You have to kill me. You don't know what she's going to do." It was Sam again, pleading with him.

Then there was a savage blow to his chest and he hit the floor.

Once more her eyes flashed, though she was less confident now.

"Kek! Kel'sha!" she hissed and vanished through the gate.

What do you think? Good? Bad? Let me know.

"Kek! Kel'sha!" is roughly translated as "Your death will be so"
