Chapter 34

He picked up a stone, stepped forward and waved the stone in front of Sam's stomach a few times. Then he went back to the controls and put the stone back on the console. He moved some other stones and looked at the hologram and he enlarged it until he and Sam could see what was happening to the egg. They watched as it split in two right before their eyes.

"Twins, I'm carrying twins?"

"Indeed."

"Thor, would you beam me back and next time you want to check on me and the kids, make sure I'm awake. By that time I would have spoken to Janet."

"Yes, I will do that."

"Thanks" then she was beamed back to where she was before.

"Sam, was it Thor?" Jack asked.

"Yes."

"And?"

"I'm pregnant with twins." they were all stunned.

"Twins?" Jack, said

"Yes twins; it seems that the latest monthly jabs aren't working."

"What are you going to do?"

"Well I need to talk to Janet about something first. In the mean time things are going to be very busy here than at the base."

"I'll say" then the others congratulated them.

The next day, when Jacob returned to the Tok'ra, he told them the good news about the twins. Sam did go and see Janet and told her about the twins. She was surprised but happy for them.

Sam talked to Janet about having her tubes tied after the twins were born and she agreed. Everyone on the base found out about the twins and bets started being placed.

Thor contacted both the Tollan and the Nox about the news of the twins and they were happy with the news. SG1 still went on missions while Sam returned back to the SGC labs. The children were being looked after by everyone on the base and Cassie. Sam contacted Mark to let him know about the new pregnancy. He told her that they sure didn't waste any time, which made her laugh. After she told him that it was the failure of the birth control, he understood and told her that he would pass the news on to the rest of the family.

Thor returned two months later to check on Sam and the twins. He found that everything was fine and told Jack and Sam that they were having boys. They decided to keep it a secret because of the bets.

The next six months were very busy for both Jack and Sam. There were two kidnapping attempts on Sam and the children by the NID. But the attempts were stopped by the Ancients.

Mark and his family spent Thanksgiving and Christmas with his in laws but promised to be there when the time came for the birth of the twins.

On the sextuples first birthday, there were two big parties for them; one at the SGC, where their allies could attend and the other was at their home, with family and friends. Sam was eight months pregnant at the time.

She was sitting down in the lazy boy chair that Jack got her when she was three months pregnant with the sextuplets and he was making sure she and the kids were all happy.

A month later, on the eighth of March, Sam gave birth to twin boys. Jack was with her all the way and even cut the cords. They named them Brian and Paul. A few people won the bets but a lot lost. The next day Sam had her tubes tied. She and the twins were in the infirmary for five days before they were able to go home.

The next three years were busy for the O'Neill household. The older kids were growing up and going to the play centre, making new friends. They were given free run around the SGC and the personnel had gotten used to them over the years.

Daniel was teaching them languages while the other personnel were teaching them to read, write, spell, mathematics, and history. They were all amazed at how bright they were. Even Thor, the Tok'ra, the Nox and even the Tollan tested their abilities and were all surprised at the results.

When the twins turned three, Jack and Sam decided they wanted more children, so Janet untied Sam tubes and Jack contacted Thor to let him know that they were going to try again.

By the time Sam found out that she was pregnant they had received word about Anubis. Jack had gotten his head sucked into an Ancient depository again and was waiting for Thor to come. When Thor arrived, Jack was already speaking the Ancient language. Then Anubis showed up and started firing on Thor's ship.

Jack ran over to where the stones were and moved them around and then he was beamed down to the Ancient outpost. He sat in the chair and all the lights came on and then fireballs came out of the ground and made a hole in the ice and headed for Anubis' ships, destroying them before they blew up Thor's ship and the Prometheus.

Then it was all over. Everyone was shocked at the battle and wondered where the defences came from. Then Thor beamed Jack back up to his ship and put him into a stasis pod since he had lost consciences. Thor was able to remove the Ancient knowledge from him and returned him to the SGC and told them what Jack had done. Sam rewarded him with a passionate kiss and the good news about her pregnancy. He was happy about the news and so was everyone at the SGC and their allies when they received the news.

The news about what had happened to Anubis and who was responsible for defeating him and his super soldiers. They soon realized that the Tau'ri and SG1 were more powerful than the Goa'uld. They also understood that Teal'c believed in the freedom for all Jaffa, so they killed all of the Goa'uld and then there was peace at long last in the galaxy.

A week later Hammond, Jack and Sam were all promoted and General Hammond was transferred to Washington and Jack took command of the SGC. Jack promoted Major Ashford to Lieutenant Colonel and Captain Elliott was made his second in command.

Seven months later Sam gave birth to twin boys and everyone was happy for the family.

Six months later Hammond retired and Jack was promoted and took over his job as Head of Home World Security. It was hard for the first six months, when Jack could only make it home every second weekend. After a year in Washington, Jack told the President he wanted to retire so he could spend more time with his family.

The President offered a compromise that he knew Jack couldn't refuse and knew the pay check would come in handy with a large family to worry about. Jack was shocked at first, but he did talk to Sam about it that weekend. She didn't care so long as he was at home and so he told the President he would take the job offer.

He moved back to Colorado two weeks later. He had two weeks off before starting his new job so he had Janet, Cassie, Daniel and Teal'c look after the kids, while he and Sam went up to the cabin for the two weeks.

When they returned they were grinning and gave everyone the good news that Sam was pregnant with quads. Everyone was happy for them. Jack started his new job as civilian leader of the SGC and eight months later Sam gave birth to two boys and two girls. After they were born, Sam had her tubes tied.

A year later Sam was promoted to full colonel and a year after that she retired from the Air Force but still worked at the SGC part time. Both Jack and Sam retired completely when the quads were five years old. They would go up to the cabin twice a year, leaving their family and friends to look after their children. They all lived happily ever after. 
