AN: Thank you JodyMarie and EmJay! Without your awesome feedback this second chapter would have went straight to the recycle bin! Emjay; I'm sorry I couldn't respond to you directly but in answer to your question I will be trying to do four more chapters; each from the point of view of a different member of SG-1. You guys are awesome, thank you so much for your reviews!
Cameron Mitchell was more than relieved when Landry finally left him alone in the observation room. He hated having to lie about Arkad's death and Teal'c's actions, or maybe not the lying so much as lying to General Landry; not that he really wanted to admit that Teal'c had single-handedly knocked him out with very little effort.
He looked down at the infirmary; watching Teal'c and Bratak. When he had come to lead SG-1 he had believed the team to be something akin to a family; maybe he had been wrong, maybe Teal'c had found his family and it was not SG-1.
Bratak rose stiffly and limped out of the room and Cam decided now was as good a time as any to talk to Teal'c. He was surprised by how stiff his own muscles had become and the wave of dizziness assaulted him when he stood. However, he was not surprised when Dr. Lam intercepted him at the door to Teal'c's room.
"Colonel, maybe you'd like to explain why you didn't come to me for your post-mission checkup?" She crossed her arms and gave him her best glare.
"Yeah, sorry doc, you looked kinda busy, one of your nurses gave me the all clear." Somehow, Cam doubted Dr. Lam would be fooled, but he wasn't really in the mood to be confined to an infirmary bed, so he had to try. When her expression didn't change he added, slightly desperately, "Look, doc, I really need to talk to Teal'c."
Her frown softened slightly but she didn't back down. "You can talk to Teal'c; after I give you your check-up. Judging from that bruise on your head you have a concussion and who knows what else you haven't told me about."
"Ah, look, doc, my head can wait. I have to talk to Teal'c!" He made to push past her but stumbled as another wave of dizziness crashed over him and his vision blurred.
"Colonel! Alright, that's it, your off duty until I say otherwise, and you'll be spending the night in the infirmary."
Cam opened his mouth to protest, but thought better of it when he couldn't decide which of the three Dr. Lams he should be focusing on. "That migh'be a good idea doc." So he let her guide him to a bed, tolerate her annoyance at discovering he also had bruised ribs, three dislocated fingers, and five fractured bones in his hand, and mutinously determined that as soon as Dr. Lam left he would slip away and warn Teal'c that he had changed the report before the Jaffa said something to Landry that would jeopardize his position on the team.
Regardless of Teal'c's actions he was a member of SG-1, and Cameron wasn't about to let him go down without a fight.
Hope you enjoyed. Please let me know what you think by leaving you review! :)
