"Wow, look at the size of them"
"Carter I think you need a bigger bags" the grapes were size of basketball.
"Marcus can we take some of these huge grapes back with us to study"
"How many would you like?"
"Four of these will do thanks," Sam said as she put her hand on one of them.
"Ok"
"Why don't we send them back home now and then we could come back and have a look around?" Jack said.
"Ok"
Then Marcus got them the four grapes and then they headed to the Stargate with them. When they got there, Sam put one of them on the malp, and then she dialled earth.
"So Marcus, do all of your fruits here grow this big like your grapes, or is it just the grapes?"
"All of our fruit are like this"
"Wow"
Once the gate was active, Jack look in to the camera. After Sam send the code though.
"Colonel O'Neill is every thing alright?"
"Yes sir, we are send a sample of the grapes back through the gate sir, you better give the tok'ra a call about this one"
"Why is that colonel?"
"Well it's just that there is some thing in the fruit that makes the human body reject any snakes"
"How do you know this colonel?"
"Daniel told us sir, it was on the wall in the temple and it was in ancient writings also"
"I see, ok send them though"
"Ok sir but you will need four people for this one sir"
"Why is that colonel?
Jack stood up holding one grape in his arms and stood back.
"This is why sir, one grape or four, cause that is what we are send though," He said with a big grin on his face,
Every one in the control room was shock when they saw the size of the grape.
"Colonel I understand, they are the biggest grapes I have every seen"
"Yeah, well it seams that all of here fruit are like this sir, but it is the grapes sir, if we get a chance we will send some other fruits back to earth tomorrow"
"Ok" then he flicked couple of switches
"I want four airmen up to the gate col O'Neill is sends grapes though, what ever you do, don't drop them" then he flick the switches again.
"Ok colonel send them though now one at a time"
"Ok, Carter is sending the first one though now"
Every one waited, then it showed up, the airmen was shock when he saw the size of it and almost drop it, the others look at the size of it and was shock also, then he pass it to one of the other airmen.
"Here comes number two"
Few seconds later the second once showed up. Then Jack passes the last two to Sam.
"Ok, here is number three sir" Sam puts it though the gate, few seconds later it arrived.
"Ok, here comes the last one sir" Then few seconds later it arrived.
"Ok, thanks for that colonel, they are big, we will contact the tok'ra strait away"
"Ok sir, we better go our selves, there is a big party on to night, we will tell you all about it tomorrow, O'Neill out" then the gate shut down.
"Sergeant contact the Tok'ra, and let them know we have some thing for them to study"
"Yes sir" Then he went to have a look for him self.
"Sir what are these?"
"Colonel O'Neill said that is a grape"
"A grape, it's a size of a basket ball sir"
"It is, ok you two take it to the lab for testing, if there is any seeds in them, hold them, ok"
"Yes sir" then the first two walk to the lab with them in their hands
"You two stay here, hopefully we will hear from the tok'ra soon, what ever you do, don't drop it"
"Yes, sir"
Hammond just shook his head before heading back to his office
Jack, Sam and Marcus walk back to the village, on there way there, he show them apple trees, there were red, and green apples size of basketball and there was pears trees where they were over twenty centimetres long and fifteen centimetres wide. Then he shows them peach trees, apricot trees, orange trees, there was even a banana tress and coconut tree. The bananas were over forty centimetres long and ten centimetres wide.
"Wow, this is incredible, I have never seen fruit this big before"
"Are you please you have seen it now?"
"Yes, thank you; do all just eat fruit and nothing else?"
"We do eat these also,"
He pointed to the chickens and other strange looking animal that was around they was keeping the grass down.
"What about vegetables, do you eat them also?"
"What are vegetables?
"They are bit like fruit but not grown on trees and you can cook them, if you like we could talk to our people in sending some here and we could show you and the people here, if you like them. Then we could talk to your leader in to a treaty," Sam said.
"Yes, our leader would like that, come we better go and see what your friends are doing"
They headed back to the village and into the temple, where Daniel was videoing the walls, and writing things down.
"Daniel how's it coming?"
"Hi your back, it's going great Jack, this place is amazing, they got here where they talk more about younger healthier life"
"What, like fountain of youth" Sam ask
"Yeah, some things like that"
"Wow"
"It also talks about the soil being fertile and makes things grow bigger"
"That explains the fruit we have just seen" Jack said. Daniel stops what he was doing and turned to look at Jack
"What fruit?"
"Daniel imagine an apple size of a basketball"
"You're joking that big?"
"Nope we have seen it for ourselves; they have got all sorts of fruit here including bananas and coconuts as well"
"Wow, I have to have a look at it my self"
"You will in time, so what else have they got here"
"More about the Goa'uld and have the healing power that will heal the sick and wounded, but it seams that the couple haven't been found yet and I found some other symbols as well"
"What are they Daniel" Daniel turned from the wall and look at jack and Sam
"Jack it's the four races, look at these symbols" Jack walk over to where they were.
"Well we better give Thor a call about this, and see if he knows any thing about this stuff"
"Ok, Marcus, how much time do we have till the wedding ceremony begins?"
"Not long, the sun is starting to set"
"Ok Carter and I well give Hammond a call and get him to send a message to Thor about this place, we will be back soon"
"Ok, Jack"
Then Jack and Sam left to head to the stargate, when they arrived there, they call the SGC, Jack told Hammond about what Daniel said and asked him to send a message to Thor. Which he said he will do, once done, they headed back to the temple, just before they arrived back, Jack notice that Sam was smiling.
"Carter what are you smiling about?"
"Well sir, I just had a crazy idea, but I don't think you would go for it"
"And what would that be?"
Sam stops where she was Jack notice that she stops, so he stops as well, then he look at her.
"Well Carter, what is that brain of your thinking about this time?"
"Well sir I know this sounds a bit crazy and all, why don't we try it" Sam was blushing by then
"Excuse me major" Jack was bit shock with what Sam was suggesting
"Well I did say it was bit crazy"
"Come on, the sun is setting, I wouldn't mind seeing the white rock glow"
"Well it was just an idea sir"
"I know, why Carter?"
"Well would you like to know if we are meant to be together?"
"Well yeah, but an alien device"
"Why not, after all we have been though a lot over the last four years, and we have been affected by different alien virus, so why not this sir?"
"I don't know Cater"
"Think about a treaty here sir"
"Well, we will see"
Sam was smiling, knowing that she just got Jack thinking about the idea, they arrived at the temple as couples gather out side, waiting for there leader to show up. They notice that there were other couples with different clothing as well, so they though they must of come from many of the other villages, that Sam remember seeing from the UAV, they even brought food to help with the celebrations.
Marcus waved them over, when they arrived to where he was, they followed him in the temple, then they went over to were Daniel and Teal'c were standing. Then the leader Julius showed up, he stood where the white stone is, then he wave the couple to walk into the temple, once they were all in there and the torches were lit they all could see one another.
"Greeting to all of you who are here to see if you have chosen you true mate for life, we have guests here who came though the stone ring. I would like for you all to welcome our new guests to our village" As he pointed to were SG1 was standing.
"Come who shell be the first one to see if they are mate for life"
Then one couple moved forward, they both placed their hands on to the device, and Daniel was recording it, just in case it did glow. When they put there hands on to the device, it glowed, SG1 was shock to see it glow, Sam got her instrument out again to see if she could get any readings, and she did, Jack was next to her and he saw the needle move.
Then there was a women wearing a gold dress with a gold head band like Julius, she pick up the goblet and out it under where the red wine came out of the hole, once it stop. She walk over to then and gave it to the young women, she drank half of it and then pass it to her mate. Which he finishes it off, then pass it backs to the women, then the couple step ford and kiss. then they turn to Julius and they bow before him, before they both left, they all notice that the women cleaned the goblet and dried it before the next couple showed up.
Two and half-hours later one hundred and nine couple was mate for life; twenty-three weren't since the stone didn't glow for them. Once finished, all the couple that was mated for life returned.
"Congratulation to you all who have got a mate for life, you are welcome to the celebrations tonight" then he turn to look at SG1 and then he walk over to them
"Would you like to find out if you two meant to be together for life?"
He was looking at Jack and Sam; they just turn to look at one another.
"Go on you two, I know that you do want to know if it meant to be" Daniel said, still recording and smiling.
They remember the talk they hade earlier and they both would like to have a treaty with these people.
"It's up to you sir, you know how I feel about it" Sam said, as she was looking into Jack brown eyes.
"Ok, why not, what are the chances for that thing to glow for us any way" Sam smiles knowing that Jack agreed to do it.
