Pokegate

Chapter 11: Shrinking

Teal'c did the only thing he could, stand there and watch as his team mates yelled out in pain and clutched there hearts. After about a minuet of this they stopped and suddenly started to get smaller, slowly at first then it started to get faster until it suddenly stopped. What lay before Teal'c was a disconcerting sight, even to him after all the weird things SG-1 had been through over the years. He was looking at a bunch of ten year olds; all Teal'c did was poke his eyebrow up at his friends.

After a few minuets, they started to wake up. The first one to wake up was Carter, as she got up she started to notice that her close did not fit.

Carter in a curious voice asked "Teal'c what happened to my clothes." Before Teal'c could reply, Carter said, "Ah what has happened to my voice."

"You appear to be a child of ten years of age" Teal'c replied.

"What, you mean I'm ten years old."

"That is what I said, is it not?"

"Oh Yes that is what you said it's just taking a while to sink in" Carter said as she started to contemplate what had happened to them. "What could have caused this?" She murmured as she contemplated what had just happened, when it suddenly hit her, the gas tank in the lab.

At that point, O'Neil started to get up and rub his head "What happened" heasked as he continued to rub his head. His gaze drifted down to his over sized clothes. "Not again" O'Neill said in his sarcastic voice that sounded younger but almost the same.

"Sir this is not an again, it's a first time." Carter replied to O'Neill's sarcastic comment.

"It is but there was that one time…." O'Neill started when he saw carter and abruptly stopped.

Carter took this opportunity and said, "That was a clone."

"Oh, what happened to you, you look like you're a ten year old kid" O'Neill replied still transfixed on Carters Shrunken form.

"We know that, look at Daniel and yourself." Carter said as she also looked at O'Neill.

"What about Teal'c" O'Neil said.

"I appear to be immune, O'Neill," Teal'c said.

"Well that explains you being older but why" O'Neill asked quizzically.

"I believe it's the tetrironin sir" Carter replied.

"Oh" O'Neill said still confused.

"Guy's why are we ten years old," Daniel said out of nowhere, for every one thought he was still unconscious.

"Why," O'Neill echoed as rubbed his chin in thought "I want to know the answer to that question too."

"Well sir I have a theory…" Carter said as she was cut of by O'Neill Saying, "You always have a theory Carter, get to the point."

"As I was saying Ibelieve that the tank that had exploded while we were in labs contained something in it that causes this," Carter said.

"Oh come on you usually have a better theory than that."

"That's all I have to go on for now sir after I examin the hard drive I might be able to reverse it, maybe."

"Maybe!" O'Neill Said in a concerned voice "I don't want to re live My younger years again."

"Well sir you remember when that corporal said that they hadn't figured out a cure out yet" Carter replied.

"Oh ok so the first order of business lets find some close that fit" O'Neill started to say when he saw an old man in a white lab coat running for there position. "Well look what's coming" O'Neill commented to himself alerting the others of the old mans approach.

"Hello there" he yelled as he ran up to them. Out of breath, he paused for a moment before saying, "Are you guys all right."

"As matter of fact they are not all right," Teal'c said.

"What's wrong." The old man asked.

"They are suddenly a bunch of ten year olds" Teal'c

"What were they before?" The old man asked.

"They were adults" Teal'c replied.

"You're pulling my leg, right," The man said.

"Why wouldI want to pull your leg?" Teal'c replied.

"Never mind that. You're kidding right" The man replied to Teal'c's statement.

"No, I am not" Teal'c said.

The man replied, "You're serious aren't you."

"Yes that is what I have been telling you this whole time," Teal'c said.

"Ok I'll run some test to see if you are telling the truth unless you have other proof," The old man said as conceded.

"um Sir I think I have some proof" carter spoke up as she said it.

"Where Honey" The old man said in a kind and considerate voice clearly still not believing them.

"On this hard drive in my pocket it should have all the data to prove what happened."
