Remember Me

'I saw you laying there
Beyond that rose
In the distant starry sky
You never saw me
Through the tears you cried
And maybe it was better to say goodbye…'
"CARTER!!" Jack tried to break free from the grip that held him back. The man with the bone saw was nearly to her now. "NO! STOP!!"
'…Cause every tear you shed
I died a little more inside
I couldn't bring myself to see
That there you laid
Right in front of me
Breathe… just breathe…please…'
Sam's eyes were blinded by the white light. Suddenly her body was free from pain, she looked up as her mother took her hand off her face and held it out
"Come Samantha, you are free now" Without realising it Carter reached up and took her hand. Standing up she looked in her mothers eyes and saw warmth. She turned and held onto Sam's hand as she walked her towards the source of the light.
"CARTER!!" Sam turned back quickly her hand still in her mothers
"Who was that?" She asked her head started to ache but her mothers grip tightened
"It was no-one, come now my child, your freedom awaits you"
'…You were so young
And so beautiful
How could you just fade away like this?
I never told you
How much you really meant
And now there's no second chance…'
"NO, PLEASE STOP!!" Jack's heart was broken, tears were running down his face as he tried to break free "CARTER!" The man with the bone saw stopped in front of her and bent down.
'..Come back to me...
Come back to me...'
"Start with the left, then we'll put the remains in the bag." one man said while the other one readied the tarp and the bag. The man placed a hand on her leg and felt for the knee.
'…Cause every tear you shed
I died a little more inside
I couldn't bring myself to see
That there you laid
Right in front of me
Breathe… just breathe…please…'
Sam looked back as the voice kept calling to her
"CARTER!" She felt her mothers pull on her arm
"Samantha, leave it, you have a new life now" But Sam couldn't help but feel uneasy.
"Mum, I think I should go back…" She started then her mother turned on her
"Samantha, this is your only way. You are free now, there's no need to go back. Don't you feel at peace?" Sam looked at her
"CARTER, COME BACK!"
"Yes but…"
"Shh, come" She said soothingly but Sam pulled her hand from her mothers. She stared at her
"Samantha what are you doing?" Sam stepped back away from the light
"I don't belong here mum, not now, there's someone waiting for me" Her mother tried to grab her hand but missed
"Samantha" Sam stepped back
"Mum, I can't I…" Suddenly a sharp pain erupted from her leg "ARGH!!" She screamed as she fell to the floor.
'...Come back to me
Come back to me...'
"NO STOP!" But it was too late the man pushed forward once cutting a gash in her leg. "Carter!" Jack stopped fighting as her death finally sunk in. He fell to his knees and just stared at her limp form "Why did you have to take her?" he whispered. "Why did you have to take her?!" A single tear ran from his eyes as the breeze dried his stained face. He turned and stared at the stars. He felt like he had run out of tears and for the first time in his life he felt helpless, then he dropped his head down tiredly. The man was about to cut again when suddenly Sam moved. The man buckled back in shock pulling the saw from her leg.
"She moved!" He shouted. Jack lifted his face slowly and looked at her. He thought he was dreaming, thought that he had willed himself to believe she was alive but then he saw her move. Jack scrambled across the dirt until he was next to her. He reached out and touched her dead cold face.
"Carter?" He wiped the dried blood gently, desperately hoping, then her eyes moved. "Carter?" Her eyes didn't open. Jack felt for a pulse and his eyes went wide. "She's alive…she's alive! Quick help me!" Jack and the others all worked on trying to get the metal off her legs. It started to move "Come on!" Jacks limbs were burning under the strain but he didn't care, he just had to get her out, had to get her home and hold her. Suddenly the metal gave and slid off of her. Jack turned back and saw the wound from the bone saw was bleeding.
"Get an Ambulance!" One rescue man yelled. Jack slid down beside her and took her hand.
'…It hurts so much, too much
Painstaking, Heartbreaking
I can't take it
I never got to know you
The way I would have liked to
How can I get over it?
When I can't get over you…'
"Major, it's O'Neill" he said kissing the palm of her hand. "We're going to get you out and take you to the hospital, you're safe now" Jack kissed her cold hand once more as the paramedics arrived and gently but quickly lifted her onto a stretcher and pushed her into the back of the ambulance covering her leg wound. Jack watched her go. He just stood there, smiling with relief. He looked up at the stars
"Thank you" he whispered "So much" Jack closed his eyes as the wind picked up. Opening them he turned and made his way to his car and followed the Ambulance to the hospital praying she'll hold on…
'...I couldn't bring myself to see
That there you laid
Right in front of me
Breathe… just breathe…please…'
