CHAPTER 9

Harry arrived back at the SGC, more precisely General Hammond's office. General Hammond was doing paperwork when Harry appeared before his desk. General Hammond sensed his presence almost immediately and didn't acknowledge him. Just before Harry went to say something, Hammond spoke first "Well you are either going to hex me and then listen or you can listen first, so what will it be?"

Harry sat in a chair and crossed his arms to let Hammond know he was not happy with him. Hammond leaned back in his chair. "Two weeks ago when you rescued SG1 I realized what you represented an extra margin of safety and security for this planet. Then during debriefing when you were able to speak both goauld and this new language ancient I was even more thrilled. The last and final straw was you can interact with ancient technology. For me, Jack, and Dr. Jackson we needed no further prompting to realize we needed you on the team.

The President was still reluctant as you were not a US citizen and he had a little thorn in his side he wanted out of the way. The President told me to tell you that he did manipulate you and me to get the threat of NID out of the way. He promised that it will be the first and last time he does that to you but he said to remind you that these men were a danger to all of us and the result he wanted justified the manipulation."

Harry looked at him "I can see where he was coming from. If I hadn't seen their memories I would not have continued but they doomed themselves by their own actions. I can live with that." Harry smirked "So what happens now?" Hammond realized that he didn't like the look on Harry's face as it usually meant something was up.

Hammond leaned on his desk "Well we have to give you some training on combat tactics, stealth, and let you work with SG1 on some combat simulations to get all of you use to a new team member." Hammond watched Harry take all this in and noticed his expression did not change. Hammond continued "You are all on stand down for the next three weeks unless something major happens."

Harry looked at him and stood up "That's it?"

Hammond seemed unsure "Well, yes Colonel O'Neill will probably have some other things for you once you report in tomorrow morning at 0700."

Harry smiled "So I have about 13 hours to make it up to my wife, who by the way, I am going to steal for the rest of the day and whatever you are going to pay me has to be $1 over what Dr. Jackson makes."

Hammond looked surprised "How am I going to justify that?"

"We both read and write Gaould but he hasn't fully learned Alterran, so I know more than he does, albeit I should get paid more and it will drive him nuts!" Harry chuckled

Harry then pulled the door open "It also serves a dual purpose of having him drive you crazy about a pay raise and why the newby makes more than him and payment for you assisting in manipulating me."

Harry smiled and waved goodbye to him and closed the door. He started whistling down the hall before he started to chuckle as he heard Hammond swear about having another Jack to deal with.

He found Colonel O'Neil and Samantha in her lab talking something over. He walked in and Samantha smiled at him and gave him a hug. "Ok, so how did it go?" she asked him.

Harry looked at her full of innocence "How did what go?"

Sam placed her hands on her hips "Potter don't play dumb with me. How did your meetings go?"

Harry held his bottom lip out in a childish fashion of a petulant child and stated "I can't remember because my arm still hurts where somebody slugged me. The bruise goes deep inside."

Sam rolled her eyes at him as Jack asked Sam "Is he always like this?"

Sam turned to Jack "Like what? You know you are speaking about my husband who I love dearly." Sam said with a smile as she placed her arm around Harry's shoulder.

Harry turned to her "You love me?" Sam looked at him in surprise until he winked at her. Harry turned back to Jack "Sam is taking the rest of the day off, General Hammond's orders." Before Jack had time to reply Harry hugged Sam and apparated away.

"Can somebody please tell me when I get to be in charge?" Jack yelled out as he raised his arms.

Sam arrived laying down with her arms and legs stretched out and a very naked Harry on top of her. She looked down and realized that she was naked too. She smiled up at Harry "Did you miss me much?"

Harry smiled up at her as he kissed her belly button which made her squirm from being tickled. "Sam I could hardly sleep for the whole time." Harry told her sincerely. He then raised himself up so that he was looking into her eyes. "I decided that I should see how many times I could get you to say my name." Harry leaned down and kissed her and Sam was already starting to heat up when he stopped.

Sam smiled as she licked her lips "You can torture me or do whatever you want but I won't give in Potter. I am stronger, smarter, and tougher than you." Sam had a distinct twinkle in her eye as she said this.

Harry kept his eyes on her as he trailed kisses down her collar bone and her breathing got heavier. "You Samantha Potter stand no chance." Harry lightly trailed his fingers down her sides which he knew were extremely sensitive on her. "You might as well admit defeat as I will have my way with you and there is nothing you can do about it."

Many hours later –

Harry woke up and found Sam slightly crying on his chest. He became awake instantly and rubbed her back and lifted her head to look at him. "Hey what's wrong? Did I hurt you?"

Sam through the tears shook her head no and then she grasped on to him tighter and continued to cry. Harry decided that this was a woman thing and that she would let him know what he needed when she could. For now he wrapped one arm around her waist and then ran his hand through her hair.

It took Sam thirty minutes to calm down enough that she looked at him and then began to speak "I kept laying here and thinking about you and me, about how happy you make me. She looked at him "Do you know my body is still quivering inside from what you did to me." She laid her head down on his chest "I loved every minute of it."

Sam crawled on top of him "I still need you Harry but I need something more too." Sam looked into his eyes as she reached her hand down and put him inside her. Sam had to close her eyes from the sensations "God, I feel so alive!"

Sam gave him a look "I need to share myself with you. Read my mind Harry and be with me. I need this."

Harry looked at her for many minutes in thought before he could reach a decision "Don't break eye contact." He told her. Sam gasped as she felt him in her mind. Absently she began to move slowly and almost immediately she felt the sensations from him and her both and it overwhelmed her senses she shuddered through a constant barrage of sensations.

Harry heard in his mind a constant mantra "I belong with you. I am you. I am one with you." He realized it was Sam chanting in his head and then he suddenly fell into the abyss of this chant and he began to chant it in synch with Sam.

The alarm clock woke both of them up with a start. Sam was still on top and they began to move before they both froze as the sensations began to come over them. Both moaned in unison "Don't move!"

Harry and Sam looked at each other and smiled. Sam took her hand and played with Harry's hair as she looked at him differently than before "You have the sexiest bedhead I have ever seen. Your hair just begs to be played with."

Harry chuckled and the movement made both of them moan. Sam laughed "Please say you know some kind of numbing spell or we will definitely be late for work." Sam then mimicked calling into work sick and tried to explain their predicament. They both started laughing until they found themselves kissing and then…

Harry and Sam ran to meet Jack, Daniel, and Teal'c at the training facility. They made it with barely a minute to spare. Jack placed his hands behind his back and gave them a sly smirk "Well, now that the rest of the crew has shown up we can begin our training."

After outfitting Harry with the standard uniform, boots and equipment, they handed Harry a P90 assault rifle. He looked at the weapon and then for some reason he looked down range. He looked over to Sam and then he took the weapon apart with practiced ease before he reassembled it, correcting the misplaced part.

The rest watched with their mouths held open in awe. Harry then looked at a magazine and slapped it in before cocking and aiming the weapon. He did controlled bursts until the magazine was empty.

Jack took the binoculars and then took them away in shock. He looked at Harry and then back to the binoculars before a smile came on his face. He handed them to Sam who placed them up and started to laugh. She saw a smiley face with the words Sam below.

Jack took his sidearm and threw it to Harry. Harry caught it and broke it down before putting it back together. He slipped the magazine in and then unloaded all the rounds into the black circle.

When he finished Jack brought out a machine gun and Harry completed the same routine and then fired about a hundred rounds down range. Jack then brought out and M2 Sniper rifle and then had Sam pick out a target about ½ mile out.

Harry finished checking the weapon and then followed Sam's directions to the target. He sighted it in and then fired one round. Sam called out "Hit, dead center."

Jack pulled his hat off and rubbed his head. He went back to the shack and brought out a short stubby weapon with a rather big muzzle. Harry looked at the weapon and then looked up. "I can't figure this one out."

Jack gave a small sigh "Well, I was starting to worry. I was looking forward to being outdoors today. If you knew this one then we were going to have to go to the indoor range. Lieutenant Potter you need to learn this one too."

Sam and Harry spent the next hour becoming proficient with the grenade launcher. When they were done they knew exactly how to clean and fire the weapon. They all helped to put the weapons back into storage.

Harry leaned over to Sam "It's funny how the only weapon I didn't know was the one you didn't know about either." Harry looked around "Until today I have never fired a weapon before nor have I ever held one."

Sam looked at him with surprise and then asked "How?"

Harry shrugged his shoulders "The information just popped into my head."

They ran about four miles back to the main gate of the mountain and then went to quarters they had assigned. Sam and Harry shared a room as a married couple. They cleaned up and met in the mess hall for lunch.

After lunch they moved to the indoor range where Teal'c began to train Harry in the use of the Zat and the staff weapon most Jaffa used. Harry again showed them advanced knowledge in dismantling and re-assembling both weapons. He fired them without any problems and Teal'c stood in shock.

Jack went over "That is exactly how I felt when he did it to me." Jack turned and walked off the range in a huff. Harry and Sam heard him state in a loud voice that was the training for the rest of the week." Sam and Harry chuckled.

Teal'c walked out of the room and Daniel hung back and looked like he had many questions for both Sam and Harry "Harry how in the world did you know all that? It took me a month to learn the P90."

Harry smiled at him and then looked at Sam. Sam looked at him "You know how you did it?" she asked him and then stated "If you know it's ok to tell Daniel."

Harry just smiled at her and then looked at Daniel "Believe it or not it was Sam that gave me the information."

Daniel looked confused "She didn't say a word this morning or give you any instruction. So she did it some other time."

Harry looked at both of them enigmatically "No, she gave it to me this morning. In fact the only weapon I could not work was the one she didn't know."

Sam eyes got very wide "You mean the sharing from last night did this?"

Daniel looked at both of them "Sharing? What sharing?"

Sam put her hand over her face "Oh my god this is so embarrassing." She stated as a blush fell over her face."Oh my god Potter I am going to kill you when we get home."

Sam looked at him and his smug smile and hit his arm. Harry rubbed his arm "Ow! What did we decide about hitting honey." He said with a smile. "I assume we are going to have another long discussion on this."

Sam looked at him and then stomped and turned away "Mr. Potter I will be at home when you get done having your fun." Sam was mumbling "God, how can you love them one minute and then want to kill them the next…men!"

Daniel watched her leave and Harry was chuckling "I didn't mean to cause you problems Harry."

Harry smiled "It is not really you Daniel she is just very… frustrated with me right now and very embarrassed."

Daniel looked at him "About this sharing thing?"

"Yes," Harry answered "Imagine if you will having sexual relations where you enter that other person's mind and they yours. Every sensation, every touch is felt in duplicate. It can be very intense. A side effect is the sharing doesn't really stop and it includes knowledge the other knows."

Daniel thought about it and then his eyes got wide "Is this a magical thing?"

Harry shook his head "If it is, it is nothing I have ever heard about from other magicals, I am not sure where it is from actually but I suspect it has to do with the ancients."

Daniel pointed towards Sam "So that…oh…oh … I didn't mean to get so…personal." Daniel blushed "uh, please tell Sam I am sorry…"

Harry laughed "It's all right Daniel I know your curiosity got the better of you." Harry looked down the hall "I think I shall go find Sam and make it up to her."

Daniel looked very contrite "Well I guess I will go study some books, maybe a language or two." He turned and left.
