"Your team seems nice, is Colonel O'Neill seeing anyone?" Alex hadn't missed the looks he'd shot her through the briefing and knew it was a way of gaining revenge over her sister,
"Nope" Sam replied glumly catching the hint, and knew what it meant Alex would strike again
"Not married?" Alex questioned further
"He was, he is now divorced"
"Oh what happened?"
"It's not for me to say" Sam replied thinking of Charlie
"Why?"
"Not my story,"
"So what am I going to do here?" Alex asked
"Well you'll join an SGC team, although you a civilian you have battlefield experience, otherwise control room computer labs trying to work out what we brought back does"
"Right, so where are the computers?" Alex asked wanting to get straight down to business
"This way"
Sam showed her down to the control room, luckily there was only Walter and another technician Becky there,
"Hey this is my Sister, yes we are twins, and we'll be over here understood" She said sharply pointing at a dark corner with a computer
"Yes mam" they replied simultaneously looking at them curiously
Sam sat at the computer, Alex stood behind her watching
"Ok normally Gates have a DHD, dial home device ours was found without so we had to compensate, this is the dialling program" Alex to sit next to sit next to her taking over
Alex's fingers flew over the keyboards finding the in's and out's of the program
"This has so many flaws did you design it" Alex asked
"Yes" Sam said tightly keeping her voice in check
"I can tell" Alex said again provoking her sister
Sam stood biting her tongue remembering where she was,
"Hum, right, just rewriting that and done, see little sis that's what a proper program looks like"
Sam sat down, she had to admit it was good better than hers, but her expertises wasn't really with computers she only knew as much as she did from protecting her computer files from her sister when the got one as they were first released.
"We'll run some simulations, see if it passes the tests"
"You could never admit my work was better than yours could you" there was a note of bitterness in Alex's voice
"Its standard procedure with any new software" Sam protested
"Sure it is" she sounded very bitter practically spitting each word out
"So how is Jonas last I heard he was working here?" Alex asked
"He died" the remorse was still in Sam's voice
"What a shame. He was good" She grinned, an evil smile seeing it upset her sister
"How did he die?"
"On a mission, he pretended to be a God, the locals rebelled and chucked him into the Gate he hit earth's iris" Sam shuddered slightly at the memories
"Iris"
"It's a protective covering controlled by this device it tops enemies from invading"
"So when did he die?" Alex asked presuming it was recent
"3 years ago"
"And you didn't think to tell me?" Alex's voice rose a hitch
"You said it was a one night stand" Sam said back
"It just wasn't the one you knew that"
"You bitch you always did that"
"Yeah so what he wasn't as innocent as he told you he knew it was me, not you it made it more enjoyable, the first time I tricked him but the second and third he came to me, we had a good laugh at your expense though" Alex smiled in the memories
"You're lying"
"And why would I do that?"
"I don't know, I don't know why you kissed Johnny in 4th grade even though he was dating me, or why you stole my science project, or why you told Mrs Dean I cheated in that test, or why you stole my fiancé, in fact I don't know why you make it your goal to screw up my life but you do" her voice had risen she noticed at some point Walter and Katie had left and made a note to thank them later
"Oh Sammie cut the dramatics please it not like you were totally innocent" Alex rolled her eyes
"Don't call me Sammie" Sam growled
