"Sam Anubis wants you" Daniel told her not waiting for her reaction
"But Jack and Hammond are sorting it out but they think it's better if you weren't there," Sam nodded numbly,
"Come on lets go and see Jake" Daniel suggested leading her down there worried about how quiet she was and the shaking he could feel. As they got there Janet came out to greet them instantly worried by the shade of white on Sam's face. She went over and was surprised when Sam pushed passed her going over to Jake picking him up and cradling him,
"What happened?" She asked Daniel, carefully watching Sam
"The activation it's a hologram of Anubis here to bargain for Sam's life, he is offering advanced technology, in exchange for her" He whispered, Janet gasped
"There not considering it are they?" She asked in horror,
"No but he won't leave, if it carries on he could really tie up the gate" Daniel explained
"What about the alliance aren't they meant to be helping?" Janet hissed trying to hide her anger but failing
"Yeh Oma popped by to say Anubis wouldn't give is the tech and it would be foolish" Daniel said rolling his eyes to show what he thought of the advice.
"But Kinsey heard and phoned Hammond to say we should consider it, I think the alliance are now in the gate room sorting it out" Daniel whispered, Janet nodded keeping a close eye on Sam and Jacob.
"That bstrd" Janet said referring to Kinsey, the thought he would want to even consider Anubis's offer made her feel sick
"I know, Hammond's having a hard time not putting the phone down or keeping Jack or Teal'c from flying to Washington and killing him" Daniel told her seriously having no doubt they would quite easily,
"He would actually trade Sam for technology" Janet checked still not believing it, Daniel nodded
"And the promise he wouldn't attack earth"
"Like you can believe that" Janet said disbelievingly from inside the infirmary they heard a small sob from Sam who they realised was listening in, Janet rushed over to comfort her Daniel close behind
"Sssh its okay Sam he won't get you again" Janet said soothingly sitting on the bed next to her rubbing her back in a rhythmic manner,
"Jack won't let him near you, let alone Teal'c, General Hammond, all the marines, the alliance, Janet and I" Daniel promised, Sam nodded trying to hold back her emotions and put the solider mask back into place. She hadn't meant to sob but had been unable to stop herself with the thought Anubis was back for her and Kinsey was considering it. With Anubis offering the safety of earth she knew a lot of people might consider it, 1 for the life of 6 billion would be an easy decision. As if reading her thought Daniel spoke
"The alliance are more important than Anubis's offers, if needs be we'll go off world, to the Nox or Chimmera or anywhere" He promised, Sam nodded knowing they would she began to feel stupid for getting so upset
"I'm sorry it's just I can't and won't go back to that," Sam swore her voice surprisingly steady and firm, her eyes no longer teary but ready to fight.
"No and we won't let you" Daniel promised, Sam smiled gratefully. Jake woke up at this point deciding it was dinner time as he started screaming, Sam and Janet looked to Daniel expectantly who got the hint this time.
"I'm gonna check how things are going?" He said walking away quickly; Janet drew the curtain round as Sam began breastfeeding Janet taking a seat next to her. Oma appeared in the corner from a white light into her human form
"Samantha, I am here to inform you Anubis has left and will not be returning, if he does the consequences will be severe" Oma said her voice taking a unnatural chill that made both Sam and Janet glad it was not directed at them.
"Thank you" Sam responded feeling some sort of response was required,
"It is what we vowed to ensure your safety and that of Jacob" Oma said "Your friends are waiting outside" she told them as she disappeared. Jake finished she re-dressed and burped him. As Janet opened the curtain, the guys were indeed outside having waited patiently for her to finish. Jack went over and hugged them both needing to reassure himself they were both ok.
"Were ok Jack" Sam said to reassure him, Jack nodded
"I know" he muttered, then lifting Jake up and taking her hand
"Let's go home" he told her and everyone else, Sam nodded wanting to get off base away from the gate to get some space.
"I think that is a good idea, we will pop by tomorrow" Janet said hinting to the others not to go round tonight knowing they would want some time by themselves. Daniel looked slightly annoyed and Janet knew he'd been planning on going round but Jack nodded silently thanking her wanting to get Sam and Jake settled at his.
"Come on Sam" he said pushing her gently in the right direction,
"Tell Hammond we took his offer and went home" Jack yelled to them carefully carrying Jake out.
Again thanks to all the kind reviewers, more twists on the way, Anubis won't give up that easy…………
