The flight to Egypt was one of the more boring flights he'd been on, Jack decided. He missed the in flight movies and was busying himself with attempting to recall what the natives called each planet. And writing the symbols- he was bored.
Finally stepping off the plane in Cairo he looked about for Daniel. He heard a familiar sneeze and made his way towards it.
"Allergys?" Daniel spun around at the sound of the familiar voice.
"Jack!" Jack shook his head at seeing Daniel so little.
"It's me Danny boy."
"I am so relieved to see you-they treat me like a kid!"
"You look like a kid Danny." They were interrupted by Daniel's Father. "Ah Dr. Jackson it's a pleasure to meet you. I've heard so much about your work." They made their way to the car, Jack talking up Dr. Jackson.
"My wife isn't to thrilled with letting Danny go off to America and all, so tred lightly,"
"Understood Dr. Jackson." The man laughed
"and call me James, with two Dr. Jackson's in the tent it gets a bit confusing."
"Yes sir. Danny, looking forward to going to America?" They continued conversing as they drove to the dig. Danny and his father pointing out the landmarks, particularly the Great Pyramid. Jack shuddered when he saw it reminded of another pyramid on another world. "Abydos." He muttered, Daniel caught his eye and nodded, he to had difficult memories with such a pyramid. The two were left alone in the tent while the male Dr. Jackson went to fetch his wife.
"You know we're idiots for what we're doing, right?" Daniel nodded.
"Yeah. Who knows if I'll even get to know Sha're.
"Or Scara."
"Yeah." A crunch of gravel alerted them that the Jackson's were returning. Jack sighed and put on a jovial face.
Later that night, when the others were asleep Jack and Daniel crept out of the tent and took the wood, hammers and nails that Daniel had gathered and carried them to the great pyramid, hiding them in the secret chamber.
Over the next few days while the elder Jackson's worked, Jack and Daniel built crates around the Sarcophagus and DHD. The last night before they left they loaded them into a truck with an additional crate of gold that had been peeled from the walls. Jack took the crates to the airport and checked them onto a separate cargo flight to Denver. He and Daniel would fly into DC and drive to South Dakota while George drove down to Denver to pick up the DHD and Sarcophagus with the flat bed truck.
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Sam looked up from the computer she was modifying, the equipment would work only because Daniel had found the DHD, otherwise they would be stuck manually dialing for some time. The ones she was working on were to control the Iris that George had commissioned. It was odd thinking of him as George, or rather Uncle George, as she was wont to do now. She assumed it had something to do with that is the way this body was used to thinking of him. Seeing him her brain saw Uncle George, not the balding General Hammond that commanded her respect and obedience. She looked up as Catherine entered the room, they still hadn't explained much to her except that the stargate went to other worlds. Sam sure didn't' know what to say.
"How are you coming?" Sam sighed at the simple question. George had let to pick up the DHD and sarcophagus that Daniel and Jack had sent from Egypt.
"It's slow. I've got the interface almost written. I've had to figure out how to rewrite a number of programs that I used. Or more like write them, they don't exhist yet."
"Yet?" Sam shrugged not looking up and hit one last button before restarting the machine.
"Yet, they exhist now. Maybe I should paten them or something. Here, watch this for a second, I'm gonna test the circuit, let me know if the screen changes." Catherine sat down and stared at the dark screen. Suddenly white writing appeared.
"It's writing." She called.
"Good, what does it say?" sam's voice echoed up the hall.
"Initializing. . . running system start. . . video . . . up . . . sound . . .up . . . iris . . up . . . A1 . . . up . . . A2 . . . up . . . " Catherine continued to read as A1-D9 came 'up'. " . . . SGC operational . .The screen went blank!"
"That's fine." Sam appeared at her elbow, "See?" she said and nodded to the screen which now had a partitioned screen. "This is the control interface, all systems in the entire complex can be controlled from this computer, or rather network." She gave a ruful grin, "I had to hotwire a supercomputer from three computers, but it's done. Now to work on the back up computer and set up the cameras."
"Is there anything I can do?" Sam looked at the older woman, she definitely looked like she needed something to focus on.
"Sure. These need to go . . ." after Sam showed Catherine where to put the cameras and speakers she began the backup computer and hoped she could find someone to build her a faster computer soon.
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Daniel waved to his parents, appearing every bit the excited child he supposedly was. As soon as they were out of sight he dropped the act.
"Jack," he began.
"No Danny. You did the right thing."
"But-" seeing the other passengers looking at them Jack decided that English was not the language to be using.
No but's Danny. Jack spoke softly in Asgardian. You could not have convinced them that you were older than you appear, even with my help. I've already invited them to an 'end of summer camp' in August. If you want, we'll tell them then. Hey if they're at all like you they'll be dying to join us. Daniel nodded dejectedly, he felt bad about fooling his parents like this, but Jack was right, without proof they wouldn't believe him.
You're right, doesn't make me feel any better though. Hey, why don't we write down all the places we've been? Jack pulled out a notebook.
"Already started, see what you can add." Daniel took the book and raised an eyebrow. It was organized by number, address, and name with a description following each one. He looked up at Jack enquiringly. "I was bored on the way here."
"Ah, that's why you have 300 addresses written?" The older man shrugged and Daniel shook his head in amusement before writing in even more addresses. They continued to list planets, Jack giving inane comments on them in Asgardian, so no one would know what he was saying. By the time they touched down in DC, they had almost 800 worlds written down. Some were missing a symbol or a letter in their designations but Sam should be able to figure it out. They picked up their luggage and were walking towards the entrance when they bumped into someone.
"Hey, sorry there-" Jack was staring at the man, and Daniel knew he looked very familiar. The man was giving Jack the same look.
"No problem Man, hey do I know you?"
"We're back from the future Michael." Jack glared at Daniel realizing where they knew the man from.
"Eh, how'd you know my name?" Jack sighed.
"Don't remember us aliens, eh Michael?" Jack asked with mock sorrow, the man's eyes widened.
"But didn't you like, leave?"
"We're back. We told you we were in trouble with the System Lords. We're back and we're young ."
Jack, he's got some idea what we are, he shouldn't object to the truth and we need more people. Michael's eyes got wide as the odd language. Jack shrugged.
Fine by me. "Michael, we are going to our friends. If you wish you may join us. We owe you a great deal for your help, we will teach you what we know." Michael blinked as he realized that they were inviting him to learn about aliens and other worlds. He simply nodded and Jack led the way to the car.
zafaran: Glad you're enjoying it. I write on it when I can so updates won't be very regular, but they will come.
cinderella2122: lol, I'm glad you like it. I didn't mean no Janet at all, thye need more peopl, ones whose charecter thye know so yes to that. I just ment no Janet that know them, she doesn't have any of her own memories of the alternative future past.
krahmogh: There is no future earth to go back to, it was destroyed. This is an Alternate dimension created by the sun's explosion distorting space time by sending their spirits to their young bodies. Think of it like they assended(became imaterial) then were forced into their younger selves bodies. the older minds rule over the younger, though the physical mind does not have all of the same paths as the old ones did, they must be rewritten. Basically they are there to stay and will be using a significantly larger portion of their brain than the average human.
Cocoa Girl2: Wow, lots of great questions there, most of them are going to be answered. As for the parents and George's wife, that'll be fun!
