Wary, Jack observed as an oily soot-black cloud rise from Carter's body slumped on the floor, victim of his zat. All shadow and no substance it hovered and then targeted him.

He knew a moment of fear and then watched helplessly as Anubis inhabited his body – raged at the Goa'uld for the damage done, to his people, his base. He was supposed to be the man in charge, not a helpless puppet whose strings were pulled by a snake who didn't have the decency to stay dead.

Anubis merely laughed and taunted him.

Jack would win though – he had to.
