Teal'c awoke from his light Kel'nor'eem first the next morning to the sound of the night nurse creeping in to wake Sam and Daniel as she had done every 2 hours to ensure their concussions weren't getting worse, both mumbled their responses. Teal'c had awoken every time listening for any sounds of the bed bugs, seeing him awake she tiptoed over
"You ok?" she asked
"Indeed I am fine" Teal'c responded, climbing out of bed not wanting to remain in bed with the bugs anymore, the nurse looked like she was about to protest but with one of Teal's stern looks stopped herself
"Ok go and shower and get breakfast then I'll get the doctor to discharge you" she bargained taking Teal'c walking out as an agreement. Teal'c went to the locker room having a brief shower and grabbing a bacon sandwich he decided to research more on bed bugs and how he could avoid them. On the way to the base library he ran into Nyan Daniel Jackson research assistant,
"Nyan I need your help" Teal'c said, Nyan looked at him scared and slightly in awe
"With what?" he asked a slight tremor in his voice
"I have been recently informed of a new threat to earth one that attacks at night when one is asleep Daniel Jackson was worried about an infestation in the infirmary" Teal'c said gravely, Nyan nodded totally freaked
"They are called bed bugs and Daniel Jackson warned me last night" Teal'c told him as they arrived. Nyan logged on and soon they were reading about the horrors of the bugs.
Back in the infirmary Janet and Jake had come in; Janet went over to the nurse while Jake went and crawled into Jack's bed his arms automatically folding around him. Janet smiled at the sight deciding to let them all sleep in while she got the paperwork ready to discharge Teal'c and possible Daniel and Jack, Sam on the other hand would be in until the burns began to heal more if any signs of infection showed.
Looking around and not spying Teal'c Janet decided to order down breakfast and wake up Daniel now that it was nearing 10am and she knew several teams were out and she might need the beds
"Daniel wakey wakey" She called
"Daniel Jackson Sg1, April 08 2008, General Hammond SGC infirmary" he mumbled answering the questions the nurse had asked him throughout the night, Janet smothered a smile
"Daniel" She called again, 1 eye opened
"What" he asked
"Well I was wondering if you wanted breakfast" Janet asked, both eyes opened
"Coffee?" he asked, Janet nodded he sat up straight, accepting the cup and sipping it almost reverently
"How do you feel?" Janet asked
"Great" Daniel responded taking another sip of coffee
"Ok apart from loving the coffee how do you feel?" Janet asked wanting a more detailed answer than great,
"Well I have a slight headache and ache everywhere but feel a lot better" Daniel admitted
"Feel well enough to be discharged?" Janet asked already knowing the answer but satisfied that he was ok
"Sure"
"Good, have a shower get breakfast then come back and your prescription should be ready. Daniel nodded looking round seeing Sam, Jack and Jake
"Where's Teal'c?" he asked
"He went to get showered and get something to eat but he hasn't returned, actually I was going to look for him" Janet said the concern evident in her voice,
"Want a hand?" Daniel asked, Janet nodded
"Sure after I wake Sam and Jack they need to eat as do you" Janet ordered firmly,
"Ok I'll wake Jack" he volunteered climbing out of bed glad he was wearing white scrubs
Soon they were all awake eating breakfast round Sam's bed, Jake sat on Sam's lap realising she was injured he put his small hand up to heal her but Sam stopped him grabbing his hand not wanting him to get hurt
"No Jake its ok" Sam said "I'll heal it will just take time, but I don't want you to get hurt healing me" Jake hesitated worried about her but Jack intervened.
"She is right Jake she will be fine" Jake still looked worried but let his hand drop,
"So Sam and Jack, how are you feeling today?" Janet asked
"I'm feeling good well enough to be discharged" Jack said straight away, Janet grinned
"I know and after breakfast I will discharge you so long as you come in each day to have your dressing changed" Jack nodded knowing he'd be in anyway to check on Sam
"I'm feeling better too" Sam added hopefully
"That's because your nerves haven't begun regenerating yet" Janet said smugly, Sam glared at her knowing she was right but she would never let Jake heal her not when it tired him out so much.
"Lucky me" Sam remarked as they all finished eating, the door to the infirmary opened, Teal'c and Nyan came in wearing full biohazard gear and holding large canisters of what looked to be insecticide
"Teal'c?" Janet asked the alarm in her voice causing it to go high pitch
"I am here to eliminate the bed bugs" he said solemnly,
"Teal'c there are no bed bugs here" Janet insisted making a move to escort him out
"I have been researching that they infest home and pesticides are the most efficient way to eliminate them" Teal'c offered, Jack stood up
"Teal'c there is no bug problem here" he said
"Daniel Jackson informed me there was" Teal'c responded adamantly
"Well not here I was talking generally" Daniel told him worried
"Nevertheless it is best to be safe" Teal'c decided as he grabbed the nozzle pointing it at them…
