As the medics worked on O'Neill, his grip on her arm went slack. At first she thought her heart had stopped as well. She looked at the nearest nurse.
"Is he…"

"No ma'am, just unconscious. We just need to stabilize his leg for the trip. You might want to step out for a moment while we work here."

Sam walked over to Daniel and Teal'c noticing a bunch of rags on the floor. It seemed so incongruous in these sterile surroundings. Then she realized that these blood pieces of cloth had been cut off Jack and cast aside while they struggled to help him.

"Colonel Carter, I have brought the Goa'uld healing device. I do not think O'Neill would be pleased to lose his leg."

"Teal'c, I don't know if I can."

"O'Neill has always had great confidence in you, why do you doubt yourself?"

At this moment her cell phone rang. Thinking it had something to do with the crisis at hand she answered it.

"Hey Babe it's me. I was thinking bout this weekend."

"Not now Pete. There's a situation here."

"Are you okay Sam, I know I shouldn't call you at work but I got these tickets."

"For Christ sake, not now." And she rang off.

Sam centered her attention on Teal'c.

"If we ask everyone but SG – 1 and Dr. Warner to leave, I could try."

"And O'Neill could be transported to the SGC. No one here will know of his recovery and he will be safer there."

"What if it doesn't work; what if I can't do it?"

"You will heal O'Neill, of this, I am sure."

The room was cleared but for SG – 1 and Dr. Warner. Teal'c opened the case and Sam took the alien device in hand.
