Daniel's Flat
Two days later…
With out Daniel around and Jack being there James had ditched school. They had just sat around the flat watching TV and slowly letting things build up around them. They answered the phone for each other. So everyone thought James had glandular fever and his adoptive cousin was keeping an eye on him.
"You know normally some one would have come to check up on us, especially with you here." James suddenly pointed out.
"Is a bit odd isn't it?" said Jack, he wasn't that familiar with this area of policy but he knew someone should be having a go at him about his family. Plus James was right it didn't make sense that they had heard nothing from base. You would have expected a call to inform them what the situation was and when they could expect people back.
"We need to get some groceries as well. I haven't got any money and Daniel wouldn't trust me with bank details. I would use a backdoor but I'm sort of trying to stay out of the way of the cops."
"What by stealing beer?" Jack scoffed.
"No by not hacking in to any international organisations." That stopped Jack in his tracks. There really was a lot to this guy. He knew more than he showed.

Daniel's Office
Jack walks in to see Daniel sitting at his desk looking at the computer screen.
"Have you found anything?"
"No, nothing knew. It's all encrypted and we still can't find a way around it."
"Report when you have news."

"You know I'm really getting worried." Said James.
"Your right, someone should have checked up on us by now. The whole thing is messed up. I mean what with me here you'd think that they'd be having us baby sat. I do know quiet a bit about the place." James thought for a minute.
"We need to go see what's going on. Something is wrong, even if it's a huge problem with you around we should have at least got a call. You know that place quiet well or at least the other Jack does"
"I have all his memories, I know the place." Jack said defensively.
"Well all the codes will have changed but I'll deal with that." James voice was full of certainty.
"You're not talking about what I think your talking about?"
"We're going to break in to the most secure facility on earth. Pack a bag."
Out side the SGC
Two hours later…
James and Jack crouched in the trees between them they had very little. A laptop, some cabling and some home made explosives. Plus James had a couple of knives he had from the six months he spent with a martial arts expert before he took some knives to school and used them to deal with two bullies that had been giving him a hard time. He wasn't any good at the hand to hand stuff but knives, he could use knives.
"So where is this entrance?"
"Over here, watch it I don't know if they've vamped up security since I was last doing this. They may not have it's as much a way out as a way in." the two of them moved on and Jack knocked some leaves off the ground to show a grey hatch. "It did have a keypad and print reader." James leaned down to look while Jack kept watch.
"Same system but they've put in a flash bang in case you get it wrong." Jack glanced back,
"Can you get past it?" Jack couldn't believe he was doing this. He had said he would put this all behind him. Be a new person.
"Yes, it's well done but I can solve it." He pulled a bit of tin foil out his bag and used it to short circuit the system. Then he managed to open up the wiring on the keypad and print reader. "I can get past the keypad but the print scanner is too complicated to do with this stuff."
"Not a problem what are the chances Jack's print isn't on there?" James grinned he hadn't thought of that. Why hadn't he thought of that? He never missed things. He was just forgetting about the clone thing. He wasn't in tune with this new stuff yet, that was all. He set to sorting out the keypad being careful not to set off the flash bang or damage the print scanner.
"Right, just need your print and we're in. That and we really need to talk to them about improving security." Jack leant down and pressed his forefinger too the pad. James held the tinfoil in place in case this went wrong. There was a click. The two teenagers grabbed the handle and pulled.
They set the hatch down carefully to stop it making too much noise. Jack climbed in first and James followed. Pulling the hatch back in place above them and plunging them in to darkness. The started to climb down James being careful not to kick Jack in the head. Jack trying to move quick enough to stop James stepping on his hands.
After a while they finally reached the bottom. There were two doors.
