CHAPTER 126

EPISODE………………My idea, still called, Sanctuary, was suppose to be a crossover with the show Sanctuary instead turned into something different and became another Captains Bar setting!

They were looking to get away, see something new and in their own universe, plus the added fact some of the Gia'ans wanted to work in places other than on their own world, so Atlantis was the best place to go work since Earth was still off limits basically. A few families moved to work at the Alpha, Beta and Centaury sites, but most of the groups that decided to leave were going to Atlantis. Since the Gia'ans had some ships of their own, they traveled space between the three Earth off world bases along with making stops to Earth occasionally.

Two unknown types of berries were found in a rain like forest on Gia'as, but were deemed edible. Fox Ford, being unable to die since he was still Immortal, tested them and after not getting sick and Hercules saying he didn't feel the need to do anything to counteract anything, they were safe for everyone else to try. One was a coffee bean that was so damn strong, a cup of sugar would only dilute it to a very dark roast flavor. It was later tested to be seven times the strength of dark flavored coffee, but rather low on the caffeine scale surprisingly. A pot, say 12 cups of coffee, had the equivalent of one can of pop for caffeine.

Needless to say, these particular trees as they were, was harvested quickly and with Ford's help with going into the past after finding a very suitable planet within a few days time of Gia'as, there was several hundred acres of the tree there where it had been growing for over a hundred years, which was in their time just a open plains area that had weeds and grass before, so doing the time travel trip didn't do anything to effect the time line. It seemed, even at that time period and the entire time the Goa'uld were in control, they didn't have much if any care for coffee, so many figured the planet was left alone just for that reason.

Someone decided to try adding more caffeine and made the shots and other strong versions of coffee, which while tasted very great, almost killed a few people while others were so buzzed they stayed awake for three days and then crashed hard, sleeping for near two and awoke with debilitating migraines. Unfortunately, Fox Sam tried one of them as did Daniel back on Earth when he heard about the new coffee and both paid for it, rather badly. Daniel, well, he just suffered and slept it off. Fox Sam, she shot herself, once, with a zat and didn't wake up till the next day and went back to normal coffee since Jolinar would cause her some intense pain if she tried that coffee again. Both enjoyed the flavor, but the buzz was to great to handle, so they only went with the normal stuff created from it. Ford loved it, but had to pace himself because if he did end up drinking 12 cups of that coffee in one day, which he did a twice in one week because he wasn't thinking clearly about how many times he was refilling, he ended up having to go pee a few dozen times during the day. It didn't thankfully do anything else other than a slight buzz.

The other was a pinkish berry, just slightly bigger than a large grape and just like it on the inside, textured like an apple, but had small sunk in areas in many places randomly around it as though it was trying to suck in on itself. It was found to be very nutritious, rather plentiful, and tasted like nothing anyone has ever had. There was no comparison to it that anyone from Earth could come up with. The only problem that seemed to come with them, they fermented much more or better, depending on how you looked at it, and while making some very great tasting wines and other liquors, had a kick from the alcohol that made many people stop drinking ever again. One person commented on the wine as to having an upgrade for jet fuel. All the Carter's and Ford's stayed well away from any of the drinks made with alcohol. General Ford, only because many asked, tried a shot of it, and ended up passed out for a day, right after he dropped the shot glass and fell to the floor before he had really even fully swallowed it. Several people got light headed from just sniffing it.

Currently, Ford, both Fox Carter's, Android Ford and his mate slash partner Relena, and Melissa were walking down a corridor in Atlantis as General Ford was giving a tour or sorts before they were going to head to the commissary to eat and talk about the different things to happen dealing with the twenty some odd Gia'ans and the few that had families brought along, that were going to be on Atlantis from now on, not only to learn, but to help. Melissa was off duty technically to allow another Captain time to train as part of the rotation. Daniel was on Atlantis as well, doing something he wanted to do, seeing as SG-1 was not due for a off world mission for another week since Mitchell was taking a few days to spend with his girlfriend and Teal'c had to do some Jaffa thing, and Vala was helping SG-9 out on a planet she had been to before as Quetesh. The Fox Carter's children along with Sally were all with the grandparents, having family time at one of the beaches on the mainland with several other people.

"Yeah, we've been doing pretty good since that Replicator problem last week." General Ford said shrugging in a light gray pin stripe suit. "Since then, the worst thing we've had happen is a banged head from when someone slipped in the hallway on a bunch of papers they dropped."

"It's gotten better lately with us too, but we still get singed fur and static problems on and off." Melissa said.

"Yeah, I'm still trying to figure out how to fix that problem." Fox Carter said offhandedly. "Short of putting rubber everywhere, we haven't really done a lot."

"General!" a young ladies voice rang out.

The group looked up to see a woman running towards them from down the hallway. She had the same grayish outfits most of everyone on Atlantis had, though it had to be one size too small because it hugged her tightly, and it was very obvious to see she was very different from everyone else. Besides the fact she was extremely beautiful, 5'11, a hundred and twenty pounds at most, and just over a noticeable C-cup, had really bright red hair, very thick too, and was four feet long. None of it was in her face even though it wasn't tied back or tied at all. It just seemed to flow with her as she moved, or ran up in this case. She stopped while bending over with her hands on her knees as she panted, making it impossible to see her face as all that hair came forward. When she stood back up, most of it went back behind her as some of it parted going over either shoulder and down her chest to her waistline where she flipped some behind her ear.

"Shelly. You never cease to amaze me." General Ford said with a happy sigh. "Actually, you do that to a lot of people. Anyway, hi. How's it going?"

"Ah, I'm nothing amazing." Shelly said shyly as she stood and rubbed the back of her head with a nervous laugh. Opening her eyes, she was surprised at what she saw and backed up a step. "Oh, I didn't know you were busy…"

"I'm not really. These are friends here to see the place, along with helping those people from Gia'as move in here. I did tell you and everyone else about it the other day." General Ford said as he introduced them.

"Oh yeah." Shelly said touching her chin with one finger as she remembered and then waved one of her hands. "Hi!"

"So, what's up?" General Ford asked as they waved or said hi back.

"Um…" Shelly said nervously while touching her index fingers together as she talked. "I'm suppose to be helping Doctor Keller with some test before lunch."

"And you've forgotten where the infirmary is, again?" General Ford asked with a raised eyebrow as he sighed lightly.

Her nervous laugh as she looked away embarrassed was all the answer he and the others needed.

"Well, as I've said before, even I get lost in this place sometimes." General Ford said offhandedly. "We still haven't even explored all of the city either even with the years we've all been here."

"Everything looks so much the same." Shelly muttered. "It's so hard to keep track General. Despite the time everyone has been here as they've said, no easy to read and use map has been made. At least nothing to carry around really."

"I need to get on those people who said they could do it with a IPOD by hooking into the cities systems, which was over a month ago. Take this hallway and turn at the second section, three doors later on the…" Ford said thinking a moment. "Left, should be the teleporter."

"Ah….teleporter?" Shelly asked.

Ford's face fell as his shoulders drooped visibly and he looked at the floor with his eyes closed.

"How long have you been running around?" General Ford asked calmly without looking up.

"Um…an hour, maybe. I'm sorry General! I don't…." Shelly started very apologetically and hysterically.

"It's been a month Shelly." General Ford said calming her down. "Look, we can deal with your memory later. I'll have K-9 look into it. It's not really important, in a life threatening matter anyway. Just tell Jennifer you got lost and if she has any trouble, talk to me. And I am not mad at you."

"Thanks General!" Shelly said shaking his hand a bit harder than he expected before running off, leaving the General rubbing his hand and rolling his shoulder.

"I have to ask, what the hell?" Android Ford asked while pointing at the retreating girl.

"She's not from this universe is she?" Fox Ford asked.

"How could you tell?" General Ford asked rhetorically. "She's been here a month, but she has almost no sense of direction. She got lost in one of the large storage rooms we have in the city. I admit, I got turned around in there a couple of times, but she couldn't find the door out."

"Who is she?" Fox Carter asked.

"You want the long or short version?" General Ford asked rolling his eyes. "Wait, there is no short version. And before you ask, we still haven't figured out what universe we ended up in."

"Sounds interesting so far." Melissa said as she crossed her arms. "I've never seen someone with so much hair before."

"Neither have I. All I was trying to do is move the T.A.R.D.I.S. from the command center down to our room for the night. Sam and I ended up on another Earth, slightly more technologically advanced and yet not considering what we do. Seeing as we were really tired and wanting to go to bed, we decided to just go to sleep and wait to see if the T.A.R.D.I.S. found home by morning. Took less than two minutes, and since it was daylight out, I figured I'd find out where we were, so when we went to sleep, we would avoid trouble." General Ford said.

"Trouble? Oh, wait, you mean checking to see if the T.A.R.D.I.S. was in a public place or something like that." Android Ford said.

"Yes. We were in some ally in a suburb, not sure where specifically, but thankfully not like that time we ended up in a street. So, I started to go back in when, Shelly, ran into me and into the T.A.R.D.I.S. The size of the T.A.R.D.I.S. being bigger in than out didn't do anything to her mind, in fact, she didn't seem to care. And still doesn't to this day. Anyway, she was being chased down by some guys in dark suits, and at first, I thought for the wrong reasons. That wasn't the case." General Ford said.

"She witnessed something she shouldn't have didn't she?" Fox Carter asked.

"No, mostly because that was one of the reasons I thought. Shelly, is a very sophisticated android. In some ways, less technologically developed and less sophisticated as you and the rest of Harlan and them. However, she is also higher in both areas as well." Ford said with easy to read amazement.

"I'm confused." Android Ford said after a moment of thinking.

"How can she be both?" Fox Carter asked.

"I really haven't looked into it, as to her functions and such, beyond a glance really. Sam and Janet did all the, more thorough checks, being a female, since I didn't want to delve that far for more than personal reasons. She's an A.I., capable of everything we do, including the ability to have children. She'll never change in looks though, as to aging, but everything else on her grows as it should. May not look like it, but she had a hair cut last week. She tends to keep it over three feet long normally." General Ford said.

"Seriously?" Fox Carter asked as Melissa's eyes rose really high along with Relena's.

"Yeah. I don't know why her hair.." General Ford began with a shrug and then held up a hand as Fox Carter began to speak. "I know what you meant Sam. Couldn't help making a joke of it. I don't know though. You'd have to ask Janet or my Sam."

"Sam's , the android one, is going to want to see her, you know that?" Android Ford stated. "She and Jack are really envious…"

"I know." General Ford said shaking his head. "That's one of the reasons Jennifer wants to see her, is to figure out what makes Shelly so, what she is. From what we gather, she was a maid for some elderly man who was part of some cyber doll company who spent a lot of his life building androids and she was his best creation. Little over six months later, he died of old age and these guys from the company were after her because she was a prototype of sorts. We didn't do a lot of searching in their files like we should have, but enough to know they wanted to disassemble her. We left, after grabbing a few things she said she really needed, came back here and, now she is part of the Atlantis crew."

"Did she get damaged or something? You mentioned memory trouble." Fox Ford asked.

"No, she actually has trouble remembering locations unless it is downloaded into her by a USB port that comes from a cable near her lower back above her butt." General Ford said while ignoring the looks he got. "Don't ask, it boggles my mind as well since it is the only way for her to gain data or send it, other than by senses we all normally use."

"That has to be the strangest thing I have ever heard." Fox Carter said rubbing her head.

"Anyway, if you want to learn anything else, just talk to her. Certain aspects of her life she won't talk about, like most women, while others she will." General Ford said with a shrug before turning to walk down the hallway again. "I do know she tells Jennifer everything pretty much."

"Anyone else here that is new?" Fox Ford asked. "From another universe I mean?"

"There is another girl, also an android, but incapable of having children that came from that universe as well, and from what we can tell, wasn't built or programmed to have children, though she can…um, well, be intimate. Anyway, you'll see her later since she works in the kitchen and seems to love doing that even though she was programmed to work on clothes, either by laundry, creations, you name it, she's suppose to do it. Think, a do it all tailor. Anyway we brought her with since they tried to use, Destiny as her name just happens to be, as leverage to get Shelly to come with them. Has the pinkest hair I have ever seen, or I mean the pinkest pink I have ever seen. If you thought Shelly was someone to look at, Destiny is like a sun while Shelly is a nightlight." General Ford said.

"Good thing Sam isn't here…" Melissa said as she crossed her arms and gave him a look.

"I think you're exceptionally beautiful, but that doesn't mean I'm going to cheat on Sam." General Ford said as she smiled at him sweetly knowing he knew she was teasing him. "Anyway, Destiny is the Martha Stewart of cooking. She makes me look bad."

"Really?" the group asked surprised.

"Yeah. For what she is, I'm surprised that she is able to cook and bake so much better than I can, and even eats. Not much of a chocolate lover, but really into mint flavored stuff. As for the baking, only I have mastered the art of getting my special brownies just right, though the person who taught me did make better. I'm just glad I was able to get Destiny to keep the secret of the recipe to herself." General Ford said.

"God I miss those things." Android Ford said with a sigh as he dropped his head. "I miss chocolate more than anything."

"Well, if Jennifer finds out what makes Shelly so unique, we'll send the results to you guys." General Ford said as they moved on. "The only thing is, if you get the, um, upgrades as it will be technically, you'll be a lot like Robin Williams was in Bicentennial Man when he did those upgrades at the end."

"That is one of the few things I was glad to give up." Android Ford said with a groan. "More often than not, nature usually called me when I was really busy."

"Yeah, I hate that too." Fox Ford and General Ford muttered.

Half and hour later, they came around a corner on one of the piers to look out over the water through a window. There was stairs nearby that lead further down to allow them to see underwater which was their next destination.

"Does anyone else see that, or is it my eyes need repair?" Android Ford asked as he pointed behind them at the wall.

"What the hell is that doing here?" General Ford asked walking over slowly. "This must be someone's idea of a joke."

"Why?" Relena asked as she remembered the Ford she was with telling her about this particular door and words above it. "I did read those Star Trek books, now that I have caught up to that series, and from what I got, it can show up anywhere."

"I told a few people here the story last week." General Ford said grabbing the door handle. "It would be too much of a coincidence…"

He trailed off as the door opened and he saw the bar was there, with lots of people, mostly aliens from the Star Trek universe, and the bartender of the Captain's bar behind it rubbing a large mug clean.

"If you're coming in, then come in." Cap said with a friendly wave.

"This is actually here." General Ford said amazed. "Let's not waste this opportunity."

"Works for me." Android Ford said going in as the rest did.

The door closed and several of the patrons waved while the others just looked at them with little to no interest. Cap waved at the bar where many of the stools were open, and they all took the seats. Ford took one with Melissa on his right, followed by Fox Ford, Fox Carter, Android Ford and Relena.

Melissa turned to look down from their right and a bit to the left seeing the right side of the bar from where they were, sitting three furred people like her. Two girls and one guy, with the guy being in the middle. The guy was a fox like her, with eye's the color of blue that were somewhat hard to not look at. White body fur with blue tipped tails and blue tipped fur, obvious only for the fact they just came in and sat down. It surprised Melissa since the thought of double tails was never thought of, and the fact the man had blue fur like Fox Ford did and his children. He wore white shoes, no strings, non tight shorts to the knees of his 5'11 frame, and a sleeveless white shirt that clung to his strong but not overly buff body.

The woman on his left was a fox, but different from the fox next to her. She had light red fur with yellow tipped ears and tail. Where the normal white color would be on a fox, there was silver fur and her eye color was light red as well. The woman on the other side was also a fox, but like nothing Melissa had ever seen, especially since the other fox only had three fingers on each hand. Both women wore tight black sports bra's and black tight shorts, plus blue shoes, no strings either.

"Is that Renamon?" the three Ford's asked bewildered.

"Yeah, but her name is Silver. Mother to the lady on the guys left who happens to be her husband." Cap said as the group looked at the bartender. "They come here time to time. I think they just came from swimming. Risa probably."

"Renamon?" the Ford's asked. "Family?"

"Yeah, good people. So, what brings this interesting group here today?" Cap asked as he leaned on the bar with one elbow.

"Who are those people?" Melissa asked.

"Sorry ma'am. Can't elaborate on that." Cap said with a friendly smile and then looked at the door. "Ah, now things will get much more interesting."

They turned wondering what the guy meant as another group entered, a lot like theirs. The two groups looked at each, rather shocked.

"Ford?" three ladies asked.

"Chevy?" three guys asked.

"Wow." the two Fox Sam's said seeing each other, getting a low growl from their mates. "Sorry."

"Dad?" Melissa asked confused.

"Mom?" Draco asked confused.

The Ford's and Chevy's all groaned at the same time and shook their heads as they lowered them.

"These are our counterparts." General Ford and Chevy said together as they waved at each other, thankfully much to the understanding of the others.

"Okay, I can understand and even name off all…" General Ford began.

"All of them with me here like I can with yours?" General Chevy said nodding and then pointed. "Her name is Relena, isn't it?"

Ford did blink, but did little else as he pointed.

"Milardo?" General Ford asked as the man nodded. "That is totally bizarre."

"Yeah. Taking the name Peacecraft made it even more stranger." General Chevy said.

"Small universe, huh?" General Ford said with a chuckle.

"Very small." General Chevy said the same way as Ford waved next to him.

Chevy and her group sat next to Ford, sitting the same way Ford and his group did, with Chevy's on his left going down.

"So many people, and yet almost all the same people, in a way. Not the first time, but certain the first like this." Cap said smiling at their confusion. "Besides the fact you all are here making things just interesting by your presence, the stories will hear can easily make up for whatever you ask for, no matter how much you ask for."

"We can't eat or drink." Android Ford and Chevy said as their mates nodded.

Cap nodded with a small laugh as he reached under the bar and brought out four small glasses, giving them only to the androids, as they stared in confusion.

"You two, I'll rephrase, the Ford's and Chevy's.." Cap's said much to the amusement of the others who chuckled or snickered at their names use. "Already know who I am and what this place is. You androids run on energy, and thanks to a friends help, seeing as you aren't the first robotic life in here, you can drink this particular, 'juice', I have."

The group was confused and a bit curious as Cap poured a glowing blue liquid, about an inch deep, into the four glasses. It seemed to have a sparkle to it as well that was fascinating to look at.

"That is a pretty blue." General Ford and Chevy said together.

"I only ask you please don't drop it. It is kinda volatile." Cap said putting the bottle back under the counter.

"You want me to drink something explosive?" Android Ford and Chevy asked.

"Only if dropped. Well, thrown is a better word, or shot with a energy weapon. Trust me, I don't kill my patrons. More than likely, you'll ask for seconds." Cap said in a very friendly tone. "Or be so buzzed you might not."

"Oh well, you only live once." Android Ford and Chevy said taking a drink.

Much to many people's surprise, except for Cap, their eyes glowed, then their bodies shivered a moment followed by coughing that almost knocked them out off their stools.

"Are they alright?" the two groups asked.

"What the hell was this stuff?" the two androids asked with rough voices. "Energon?"

"Yes." Cap said ignoring the shocked looks. "Not the highest grade…."

"The Transformers come in here?!" the Ford's and Chevy's asked with extreme interest.

"Something like that." Cap said avoiding the question for the most part. "So, what would the rest of you like, or wait till the story's are over?"

They chatted about different things before going into stories that had some peoples attention. Particularly about the symbiotic life that though somewhat like Trill's, was very different as the Fox Carter's eyes glowed. For Chevy's universe Fox Carter's, that Chevy also had a Hercules in her that was male technically just like the one Fox Ford had.

"God saving Igeria was easier." General Chevy said as she rubbed her face.

"Yeah, all we had to do was clone a copy and transfer a copy of memories over seeing as that lady was going to die anyway. Bring Igeria to the future after that was easy." General Ford said.

"I can't recall the name of the Tok'ra who gave up their life to save Igeria, even though Igeria didn't live long in that body." Chevy said. "And that symbiont was even easier to deal with."

"Though I still have trouble understanding what you did, I am and always will be grateful for saving me." Jolinar said from Fox Samantha Carter's body.

"I agree with gratitude I cannot express." Jolinar in Fox Samuel Carter's body said.

"I had no trouble being alone technically, but having someone to talk to of my own kind is a refreshing change." Hercules in Fox Chevy's body said.

"More so since I am not only accepted, but also that I am part of the family, in more ways than one." Hercules said in Fox Ford's body.

"That's right, your sleep patterns differ sometimes." General Ford said.

"They do get together sometimes, if you catch my drift, while their partners AKA host are still asleep." General Chevy said with a sly smile as General Ford groaned.

"I must admit, you both are technically the same person, though different genders and from alternate universes, but your personalities are also polar opposites in certain areas." Cap said shaking his head with a small and friendly laugh.

"Yeah, usually the guy is the one that boast his sexual exploits, even if it is one woman." Melissa said with a typical female tone about the subject. "All the Ford's are tight lipped even when other guys ask."

"Us women talking about it is practically normal because it stays between us women." Fox Carter said.

"Sam only brags at the fact he has the best woman in the universe." General Chevy said with a knowing and bright smile. "Which I can't deny."

"It is the truth." Fox Samuel said. "It doesn't bother me much when you and your counterparts talk rather bluntly sometimes about it."

"I don't know why, but it must be because it gives me some pleasure to talk about it." General Chevy said and then smiled as Ford grumbled at her next words. "No, I take that back, I do get pleasure talking about it."

"That is my only problem with you." General Ford said looking at General Chevy.

"That didn't stop you from saying if we didn't know who each other was, we'd probably had gotten together." General Chevy said with a sly smile as General Ford look disgusted for a moment.

"Sam and I both took medical checks to first see if we were even compatible." General Ford said.

"So did I and my Sam." General Chevy said.

"We would have taken the same test. And after seeing the results…" General Ford said rolling his hand.

"You're right, that would have been like incest." General Chevy said with disgust on her face before shaking her head as she rubbed her forehead with one hand. "Geez, its only been three days. I've been able to hold out for a week…"

"Okay." General Ford said as he started to get looks considering it had to mean he hadn't been with his Sam in three days either. "I'm wondering, how did it go with a Doctor Helen Magnus for you? I'm really curious what name the guy had since I haven't been able to figure out a opposite for Helen other than possibly Henry."

General Chevy smiled in a way that General Ford didn't like.

"It was a Doctor Helen Magnus, who looked just like your Sam, but with long black hair. Correction, really gorgeous and well maintain slightly curly long black hair. I'd be envious if it weren't for the fact I have hair like that, but without the curls." General Chevy said as General Ford closed his eyes and groaned while rubbing his forehead. "Things went bad for you didn't they?"

"I couldn't help it. We landed in some large room where we could see different animals, some mythical, others extinct and others unknown and corridors going the four compass points. Sam, Teal'c and Daniel went one direction, Mitchell and Vala went another way and I went my own. Sam and Daniel came across some guy with glasses while the other two came into contact with a nervous guy, who we ended up learning was the brains behind the electronics and such for the Sanctuary, and apparently a werewolf. I ended up running into Helen Magnus and for a moment, thought it was Sam, so much so I checked her out and made a couple comments that, though not vulgar or sexist, did make her blush until her daughter came up and tried to kill me for hitting on her mother." General Ford said.

The others chuckled or laughed since it was the first time Ford had ever hit on someone and had that sort of thing happen.

"Sam and the others came along, Helen's daughter was surprised at the resemblance of Sam and her mother and after hearing who we were and what we were doing, that little lady turned around and made sure Sam was told every word I told her mother along with checking her out." General Ford said as most of both groups were now laughing as were a few other people including Cap. "All three women looked at me with a look that actually made me cringe."

"You must have gotten a major ass kicking or worse." General Chevy said after she stopped laughing. "Was it a tongue lashing instead, if front of everyone?"

"Not really. I had to sleep in the General out on the pier for the night. It was only after a day or so that Sam had to admit that Helen did look great and forgave me for checking her out and such, saying she wasn't really surprised. I won't deny it, Helen was extremely hot looking. She was even an inch taller than Sam, but her height has never been an issue. It was mostly that hair that got my attention and that British accent. Only after Sam put on a wig that was the same style and such to see my reaction, did I say no because it wasn't Sam." General Ford said. "I like her better as blonde, though the British accent Sam managed to get right was cool and sexy."

"I like both, but then that's just me saying from one woman to another that she looked good like that." General Chevy stated. "Did you notice the surprise she had at seeing Danielle, or in this case for you, Daniel, and her reaction?"

"Yeah, she thought he was a guy named James something. Jamie for you." General Ford said as Chevy nodded. "It took him lifting his shirt, for a reason we never really learned, to show he wasn't the person she thought he was."

"Danielle didn't really want to do that, but did it anyway." General Chevy said.

"Wait, if you encountered the same sort of Helen Magnus I did, as strange as that sounds, what was different for you?" General Ford asked.

"Her somewhat recent addition, who was a former profiler cop or something along those lines, was a guy with black hair a bit longer than Samuels, and looked exactly like Samuel, but with glasses. Samuel was rather angry when I couldn't help but check out that guy. I ended up sleeping in the General out on the pier as well." General Chevy said with a sigh. "The only good thing that came out of it is I think he looks sexy when he wears glasses similar to the ones that guy had."

"Yeah, my Sam has to wear glasses now as well. But only for near sighted things that are small sometimes." General Ford said. "Gives her that real hot librarian look."

"Yeah, like that." General Chevy said with a smile. "Though I have seen very few guys who can pull that look off."

"Must be because I'm now a fox that my eyes aren't affected." Fox Samuel said.

"Same here." Fox Sam Carter said.

"More than likely it is because of your symbionts." Fox Ford and Chevy said.

"Oh, right." both Fox Sam's said.

"That cabal or whatever that is against Helen, what she does and her beliefs were really big pains in the ass." General Ford said with a sigh. "They tried to kill everyone to just capture me and my ship. Teal'c managed to easily escape capture, taking out three idiots in the process."

"Did you get shot in the ass with a dart?" General Chevy asked with a look of anger in her eyes at the thought.

"Yes. Whatever it was suppose to do never did anything." General Ford said.

"Made me beat the hell out of the guy and his friends. I about killed their leader when they tried to steal the T.A.R.D.I.S." General Chevy said with a growl at the memory. "They sure as hell can't enter her, but they were taking her away."

"I broke bones and did other serious damage to them, but I didn't kill anyone." General Ford said. "I can't deny I wanted to."

"I know I made sure that leader was never going to have kids and would sing soprano for the rest of his worthless life." General Chevy said with a grumble. "He made more than a pass at me, he groped my chest."

"That must have been when he grabbed a fistful of my shirt and tried to intimidate me face to face, plus made threats against Sam." General Ford said. "I head butted him hard enough it not only provided a great distraction, but also knocked the man out for near a day."

"Did the same with me, but in my case, he figured I'd be afraid if he sexual harassed and abused me. He's only lucky because the last guy who ended up reaching lower didn't live long." General Chevy muttered.

"I'm not even going to ask when that happened." General Ford said holding up his hands. "Wait, what was with the look of rage when you mentioned the dart thing?"

"I pulled the damned thing out wrong and ripped more than my pants." General Chevy said with a grumbled of annoyance as she took a drink.

"I did the same, but didn't really care. It bothered me the needle was over an inch long and hurt like hell, but…." General Ford said with a small frown.

"Guys don't care about their underwear like women do." General Chevy said as the Fords shook their heads and rubbed their eyes, as the other women were laughing. "I just bought those the day before. While I have no trouble with money and buying expensive things, silk lingerie has always been a personal favorite…"

"Please, you keep going and I'm going to start visualizing." General Ford muttered as Chevy chuckled. "Oh, you didn't learn about a particular conversation then…..no wait, you were probably part and the most talking one."

"Not following, though I am sure you are talking about the topic being sex." General Chevy said.

"Magnus and her daughter thought that I was more than the typical male, a bit later after her daughter told Sam about me checking out Magnus. Sam didn't elaborate on what the three talked about and I have never asked or want to know what Sam tells other girls, but Magnus came and dragged me away from helping that computer guy while trying to help him do some upgrades to their system, and started asking me all sorts of questions. Very few were dating ones and about my relationship, on the trust side, with Sam, while the others were about me biologically. Though I did give her a blood sample or two…" General Ford said shaking his head. "Hell, at five I stopped her since she wanted a lot to do research and experiment on since I can't die. Anyway, she had that look Sam does when she discovers something that makes her speechless, and I actually lost track of all she started talking about. I have no idea what the Source Blood is and didn't stay long enough to find out. Especially after that vampire guy came along and was insulted I didn't find him scary and was even more insulted when I told him I saw worse vampires."

"I punched him in the face, hard enough he cracked the wall I knocked him into. I know I dazed him, but he gave me a look that said he was either going to rip into me or back off because he wasn't sure if he could win. Magnus stepped in, also pulling five and going on a diatribe I got lost in as well, and kept him from trying anything more." General Chevy said. "I'm betting he backed away quickly while hissing after smelling our blood."

"Yeah, for some reason, he didn't like it and seemed afraid of it." General Ford said. "Magnus was upset that he broke one of the vials, but otherwise didn't do anything since she was just as surprised at him backing away."

"I did talk with Helen and her daughter, but sex barely came into the conversation. I know Samuel talked to those two guys working with her and I think also helped upgrade their systems, but what they talked about, I never learned. I just usually ask him if he talked about me, which he says yes and by the tone of his voice, I can tell how." General Chevy said. "Hey, did you notice how that guy who can teleport everywhere and is the father of Helen's daughter looks a lot like Harlan?"

"Yeah, just bald. He quickly looked away when he learned I was with Sam and though it is apparent that Helen has some sort of trouble with the guy, she did seem jealous that he looked at Sam with more than interest in mind." General Ford said.

"I'm going to guess that your Igeria did the same thing ours did." General Ford asked a bit later during a conversation change.

"Yeah, the rest of the Tok'ra were extremely grateful, so much so they were willing to give us anything we asked for, so the SGC is working with them to learn a few new things and such." Fox Samuel said.

"So many of the Tok'ra were willing to give their lives so she could live in a host that she ended up picking one of the Gia'ans, not only to avoid the unnecessary death of any of the Tok'ra, but also to see what it would be like to be in a different humanoid seeing as the Tok'ra did want to expand their ranks in hopes that the Gia'ans would join." Jolinar in Fox Samuel said.

"Hercules and I think that she picked that muscular, um…wolf for intimidation." Fox Ford said. "What was she, a Timber wolf?"

"No, she's apparently a thylacine, AKA, a Tasmanian wolf." Fox Carter said. "A very rare wolf on Gia'as since Nirriti was experimenting on those breeds a lot, and extinct on Earth."

"Reese Igeria as she is known now, is 6'2, fur so black it is almost blue, just like your hair General's, and so bulky she could easily get a job with that Gladiator show on TV." Fox Samuel said.

"The only reason she ended up as Igerias partner is because Reese broke her back after falling off a building during construction of a house. Seeing as there was no way to fix her back even with Vala helping, she wanted to die." Fox Chevy said sad at the memory of choice that Reese took. "Igeria gave her the choice and she said she would have jumped at it if she could have moved."

"So far the two enjoy life a lot including being mothers in more ways than one now." Fox Carter said.

"Oh man, having a child is one thing, but birthing another Tok'ra at the most of three times a month has got to be hectic." Fox Ford said.

"I remember Reese now. Nice lady despite her appearance. Knocked me out in one punch in the beginning of a sparring match we had, before we saved Igeria." General Ford said.

"Oh yeah! That was funny. So many bets were blown that day. The fight didn't even last three minutes." Fox Ford said with a laugh. "I've only done better because I've been around her longer."

"I still feel humiliated." General Chevy grumbled as she rubbed her jaw. "I saw that punch coming and even though I, for the most part, blocked it, she still gave me a good right hook that knocked me out cold. My teeth ache every time I think of that."

"I didn't feel humiliated." General Ford said. "I actually respected her for it."

"That's because your Sam has kicked your ass more than once and even knocked you out too." General Chevy stated.

"Wait, if my Sam kicked me in the nuts and then gave me a uppercut so hard I was knocked out, what did Samuel do?" General Ford asked. "My Sam almost got in trouble, but I let it go. No offense, but you're a girl and he being a guy…"

"I almost got in trouble, not only because I attacked a fellow officer per say, but also because, well, I more than punched a girl." Fox Samuel said as General Chevy said nothing.

"What did you do?" Fox Carter asked.

"After begin goated, I kicked her in the shin, gave two quick shots to her gut that knocked the wind out of her followed by a right hook and then a uppercut." Fox Samuel said.

"I don't remember the uppercut and remember just enough of the right hook to say I know it happened." General Chevy said. "But I did forgive him. Really, considering the jab I made at his manhood, I deserved it."

"I think I made some sort of comment that she hit worse than a girl." General Ford said.

"No, it was a comment about Daniel being better than I am." Fox Carter said.

"I thought it was that Daniel was better and he hit like a girl. Or something along those lines." Fox Ford said.

"Whatever it was I said, she kicked, then punched and lights out." General Ford said.

As they continued to talk, comparing stories, Cap brought them different drinks that weren't alcoholic till somewhat later when the Ford's and Chevy's, besides the Androids, who had a taste for Saki, had some with the rest of the group while the Androids had a bit more Energon.

They stumbled out, leaning on each other as it was hard to stay standing without help in their drunken state. Fox Sam was the most coherent and thinking of them, even though she was in a half state of dress seeing as her shirt was rather open, but clothed enough to cover just enough of the blue bra, and hanging off a half awake Fox Ford whose shirt was open along with his suit coat and vest. General Ford himself was leaning on Melissa as she was on him, who was giggling to laughing with him. The two androids were holding each other up, looking buzzed and ready to fall asleep as it were as their eyes glowed lightly.

Carter came around the corner with John and his team, along with a few others, seeing them in the state they were, since Atlantis had been trying to find them for the last ten minutes, when they suddenly showed up on the scanners again. Carter thought at first they were in the T.A.R.D.I.S., but it was still in the command center.

"What the hell…?" Carter began in shock, more so at the appearance of her Fox counterpart who gave a small two fingers salute that seemed more like a shaky peace sign wave.

The drunken group stopped, tried to stand with a small wave, or trying to salute, only to all fall down and pass out, the two androids being the last as they sank to the floor with their backs to each other. General Ford was down on his face, drooling on the floor while Melissa was draped across his back looking like she was in a very content sleep.

"How in the hell did they get drunk?" Sheppard asked after a moment of realizing their state of being and the smell of alcohol. "And why the hell why? There is no alcohol near this section and we know they weren't carrying any when they went for the tour."

"I….." Carter said, not sure to be pissed or not, as her brain couldn't figure out what happened. Especially after she picked up on something else rather quick when they all fell. "Unless things have significantly changed, the android versions of us and the others, can't get drunk, much less drink or eat."

"What do we do General?" Radek asked.

"Get them to the infirmary where we can hopefully find out what the hell they did." Carter said. "Especially to the robots."

"Yeah, especially to the robots." Sheppard said as Rodney started to go into the differences between the two beings. "I thought your husband wasn't a drinker or did little if at all."

"He doesn't unless we want to…." Carter said trailing off. "They better have a really good reason for this."

"The T.A.R.D.I.S. never left the command center, so how did they hide from the sensors?" Radek wondered aloud.

"They'll be answering that question as well when they wake up." Carter said still trying to come up with some reason that could explain what they found. "I'll get my counterpart."

"Yes ma'am." they all said knowing the tone of voice Sam had, especially after everyone had seen the slightly undressed state of the poor fox woman.

"We ended up in the Captain's Bar Sam." Ford said, still sitting in one of the infirmary beds where everyone else still was, though their states were still in hangover status, even the Fox Carter's somewhat.

"If it wasn't for everything we've been through, and the fact I ended up there once a few months back, I almost would think you were making it up." Carter said with a sigh. "Ford, what the hell did the androids have? They still aren't awake and K-9 says their bodies have too much energy in them."

"As unbelievable as it sounds, they drank Energon. Cap said they'd be fine in a few hours or so, nothing to worry about." Ford said rubbing his head. "Wanted to bring some Energon back, but couldn't. And it is too diluted, as it were, after having gone through their systems so…"

"Why in the hell did any of you drink alcohol anyway? You're still on duty and you have a terrible tolerance." Carter said.

"We lost track of time and quite literally forgot where we were, as unbelievable as it sounds and had fun." Ford said as he rubbed his eyes in pain.

"Head still hurt General?" Keller asked as she walked up seeing his touching his head.

"Yes. I'm going to live with it until it passes." Ford said wincing. "Call it personal punishment for being stupid."

"Even with what you are, and can return from the dead on your own, your body takes its time to remove alcohol." Keller said shaking her head with amazement as she put info into a pad. "But all drinking is stupid even when you drink when you shouldn't."

"I guess it is a consequence or side effect." Carter said. "He's never been able to process alcohol very well. Okay Ford, while the others are recovering, let's get back to work."

"Seriously?" Ford asked rubbing his head again.

"I've worked slightly drunk and hung over before, so you have to as well." Carter said pulling him from the bed, ignoring his groans of pain. "Keep me informed on the others please."
