Chapter 12

An hour later the auction was over and as Kaleth had predicted Andreas had bought both Sam and Janet. Melody had been bought by an unattractive looking guy who was standing close to them. The women were all walked off stage and Jack watched as Andreas was led out of the room.

"We may be able to get to the special client rooms but it will not be easy" Kaleth said as he too watched Andreas leave the room.

"Nothing ever is"

The four of them made their way towards one of the doors and were able to slip through undetected.

"The rooms are upstairs I believe"

"You believe?"

"I haven't been in here before"

Janet and Sam were both dragged through the corridors; the man who had bought them, Andreas was right behind them. Janet was thrown into a room with Sam and Andreas right behind her. There was a large bed in the room and Janet knew exactly what they had been brought here for. Sam walked up to her but one of the guards who had stayed in the room grabbed her and pulled her back.

Andreas grabbed Janet roughly by the arm and threw her on the bed. He climbed on top of her and grabbed her wrists as she attempted to hit him. He held her wrists down on the bed above her head as he leant down toward her. Janet tried desperately to struggle free but couldn't move under his weight. She could here Sam screaming for him to leave her alone but her cries fell on deaf ears. Andreas was so close she feel his breath on her skin and even worse she could smell it.

The door suddenly crashed open and Janet felt relief fill her body as she realised it was Jack, Daniel and Teal'c. The three men walked into the room and Jack immediately took on the guard that had hold of Sam. Whilst Daniel knocked out the guard near the door. Teal'c walked over to the bed and grabbed Andreas pulling him off Janet and throwing him on the floor.

Daniel knocked the guard out and turned to see Teal'c throw Andreas on the floor. As much as he wanted to kill Andreas at that moment he had other concerns, he knew Teal'c would take care of him. He walked over to Janet who had jumped off the bed the second Teal'c had pulled Andreas of her. He put his hand on her arm gently and she jumped at the contact before realising it was him and settling down. He pulled her into his arms and held her tightly, she was shaking and after a moment her knees seemed to buckle underneath her. Daniel held her weight as she collapsed against him.

"It's okay, you're safe" he said quietly in an effort to reassure her.

Jack, Sam and Kaleth came over and Daniel spared a quick look over to Teal'c in time to see the Jaffa kick the now crawling Andreas in the face knocking him unconscious.

Jack and Teal'c picked up the weapons from the two guards and the six of them made their way out of the room. Daniel was still supporting all of Janet's weight.

They were about to turn in the direction of the auction hall when Sam turned a different way.

"Wait, this way"

Sam led them down a corridor and into a room where all the women from the auction were all chained up waiting for their buyer to come and get them. A man came running into the room with a gun pointed at them.

"What are you doing in here?" Daniel recognised him as the man from the stage who had slapped Sam and grabbed Janet' after he saw Sam and Janet he aimed his weapon at Daniel. Jack took that as an opportunity to raise his own weapon and shoot the guy in the head.

"That was for slapping Sam, grabbing Janet and whatever else you did that I don't know about yet" Jack told the dead body.

Sam walked over to the body and reached down and grabbed his keys, she smirked at the dead man before standing back up and starting to unchain the other women.

"Sam we don't have time to free them all" Jack said.

"I'm not leaving them here, you saw the type of people who are about to take these women away where no one can help them"

"Teal'c watch the door" Jack said as he helped Sam. It took them over five minutes to free all the women, including Melody who led them to a back door.

They walked back into the apartment and Daniel walked straight over to the Sofa's and lowered himself and Janet onto it. She had a tight grip on his shirt and was still shaking. He kept one arm tightly around her whilst the other one stroked her hair lightly.

"We cannot stay here, they will be looking for us and they will find us" Kaleth said

"Let's just get some things together and we'll go, I'm sorry for all the trouble we've caused you" Jack said.

"Jack maybe we can bring him with us" Sam suggested.

"You mean through the circle of… the stargate?" Kaleth asked a little surprised.

"Only if you want to" Jack said

"I have nowhere else to go"

"I have to go and find my daughter" Melody said heading for the door.

"

Wait" Jack said "We'll get her on the way out; you can both come with us too"

The woman looked shocked and afraid "It is better than the life we live here; they have told me of their world. You're daughter will be happier and safer there" Kaleth told her and she nodded reluctantly.

"Let's get some supplies" Sam said and Jack turned and walked over to the sofa.

"How's she doing?"

Daniel just shook his head and Jack went to help the others gather supplies. Daniel looked down at Janet who was staring blankly ahead and seemed completely incoherent.

"Janet sweetheart" he said quietly but she just continued to stare ahead whilst shaking.

Ten minutes later and Jack, Sam, Teal'c, Melody and Kaleth had gathered all the supplies they could carry. Daniel moved to stand up but Janet grabbed his shirt tighter so he had to pull her up with him.

"Okay let's go find that stargate" Jack said and they all left the apartment.
