Life of a warrior epilogue
...
Seven months later...
"You okay?" Sam asked her friend as her eyes slowly opened to the world around her.
"Yes thanks Sam. I'm good. Can you send in Daniel and the kids?" Janet asked her best friend.
"Sure thing Janet." Sam left the isolation room.
"Is she okay?" Daniel asked.
"Just a little sore. She's fine Daniel. She just wants to see her family." Sam said.
Daniel, holding his four month old Son, Andrew went into the infirmary, his younger children trailing behind. Cassie was on her way to the SGC from a week long trip with her senior high school class. She was leaving three days early.
SG13 had recently gone to a mission on P3X 666 which ended in near disaster. Luckily no one was killed but it came awfully close for Janet and Jack.
Janet had just finished stabilizing Senior Airmen Simon Wells when a rogue staff blast hit Janet in the chest. Her vest protected a lot of the damage but not all.
Janet had been in surgery three times in the last two days but she was out of the woods now.
Wells named his newborn daughter after her.
Janet was honoured.
Sam went straight to her husbands bedside in the main infirmary. He was getting up and putting on his shirt.
"Jack, what are you doing out of bed?" Sam asked.
"I'm fine Sam. A bit sore but otherwise fine. The vest protected me pretty good. Lot of good it did Doc." Jack said looking solemn.
"Jack, Janet's okay. She pulled out of the last surgery just fine. Daniel and their kids are with her now." Sam said.
"Oh thank god." Jack whispered to the ceiling. He saw his wife close to tears.
"Come here." Jack said quietly as he brought Sam into his arms trying not to hurt himself in the process. Sam let loose a few tears. Something she rarely did while at work or even at home.
These past few weeks had been strenuous.
Mark and Annie had a daughter seven months ago almost four days after the wedding. They had been back in San Francisco for two days.
Amy René Carter was born at 3lbs 12oz. She had the early signs of complete blindness and some breathing problems. Amy was in the hospital for three days on a respirator but thankfully the young infant was fine now.
"Jack I'm pregnant." Sam said suddenly.
"What?" Jack drew back painfully.
"About two months. Aren't you happy Jack?" Sam asked with a worried expression
"Of course Sam. Just a bit of a surprise. I take it was conceived while you were injured?"
"Yeah." Sam smiled fondly at the memory.
"Where are the girls?" Jack asked.
"Outside. Do you want to see them?" Sam asked.
"Of course." Jack smiled.
Sam went to the doors and Walter brought in the children.
"Thank you Uncle Walter." AJ hugged Walter before he left.
"No problem Kiddo. Good to see you up and about sir."
Jack nodded.
"Hows the new wife Walter?" Jack asked.
"Fine sir. Thank you." Walter said as he left.
"Daddy!" AJ and Grace squealed excitingly. The hugged him and gently as they could.
"I told you girls that he would be fine." Sam said holding an awake Hannah. Jack sat on his gurney.
"Can I hold her Sam?" Jack asked.
"Sure Jack just be careful for your ribs." Sam said as she gently passed Hannah to her father.
"She's gotten so big."Jack smiled down at his youngest daughter.
"Do you feel up to seeing the rest of the team?"
"Not quite yet. I want to enjoy this moment.
Six and a half months later...
Sam screamed for the seventh time in the last thirty minutes. Jack wiped her sweaty brow.
"Okay Sam. One more push." A recently recovered Janet told her.
Sam nodded as she panted. This was the last time she decided to have triplets.
"It'll be okay." Jack said. He kissed her on the forehead. Sam turned her head to glare at him.
Jack was just glad that she wasn't throwing curses at him like Sara had been when she was in labour with Charlie.
Sam began to have another contraction. She began to push.
"Okay I can see the head." Janet informed the parents to be. "One more time."
Sam began to push again.
Suddenly a cry erupted into the small isolation room.
"Congratulations, it's a boy." Janet said with a smile. Jack cut the cord.
"Jake Jonathon O'Neill. JJ" Sam said her smile lighting up the whole room.
"Only two more to go." Janet said.
Four minutes later another cry entered the room.
"It's a girl." Janet said. Jack cut the cord a second time.
"Jessica Jolinar O'Neill. Jesse." Jack said.
The last baby took a few more minutes to enter the world but nine minutes later another cry was heard.
"It's another boy." Janet cut the cord this time.
"George Daniel O'Neill. GD" Sam said.
"Daniel will be honoured." Janet said. The babies were sent off to be cleaned.
"Congratulations Sam. Three more children." Janet said as she snapped her gloves off.
"And don't forgot the boys!" Jack said excitingly. Sam smacked his arms slightly.
Twenty minutes later the triplets were back with Sam and Jack.
Grace, AJ and a now walking 17 month old Hannah came in the room to see their new brothers and sister.
"Their pretty." Grace said.
"Just as pretty as you three." Jack said. AJ blushed while Grace smiled.
"The others want to come in." Janet peeked into the room through the door.
"Bring them in." Sam said with a nod.
They were soon joined by Daniel, Teal'c, Jennifer, Walter, Siler, Dixon, Reynolds, Cassie and all the Jackson children.
Sam smiled at all the people around her calling dibs on godparents and what toy they would get them for the triplets first birthday.
This family was expanding and would continue to in the years to com.

So what do you think? Hopefully this is a better ending then the last chapter. I do plan a sequel but It may be a while thanks to not being sick all the time. Anyway be on the look out and as always review review review.
