Outside the SGC

Some time later…

James had woken up half way back up to the surface on Rya'c's back. After a few seconds of confusion they got sorted out and managed to get off site before they got caught.

"Wait," James said stopping Jack as he headed off away from the hatch. "We can't go back to Daniel's flat."

"What do you mean?" Jack said turning back.

"Look two kids turn up knowing exactly how to get in. What would you do?" James said bluntly.

"Damn it your right they'll check all staff housing." Jack muttered. Rya'c looked worried.

"Where do we go then?" The alien queried.

"I don't know. The only people I know in the area work here." James thought, where else was there.

"We need to get arrested." Jack and Rya'c both stared at James like he was insane.

"Have you gone loopy? I've been in the cells already this month. Plus they'll have a field day with Rya'c."

"You two would have to give fake names, I need to talk to some people and it's the only way." James looked straight at Jack, "It's all I can think of and it's a long shot, but you never know."

"What's this all about?" Jack asked with out moving.

"Walter told you I've been shipped around between relatives. Mainly because I get in to trouble. Well yeah I got in to trouble but I also found out a hell of a lot and if I can talk to the right people, we can work our way up talk to someone who might listen."

"When you say arrested, how arrested do we need to be? Underage drinking arrested, or armed robbery arested?"

"There is a difference?" asked Rya'c.

"A small one, underage drinking gets you a slap on the wrist and your parents get a call, armed robbery, they stick you in the cells for a bit, then have a talk with you before you get to make a call."

"The second one, I need to dial the number."

"So, you just need to use the phone? I've got change we'll use a pay phone."

"No it has to be a police line that they can trace."

"Who are you calling exactly?"

"The British." James turned and smiled at Jack, "Tally hoe."

AN: Sorry this one is short, but this seems the right place to stop. I right the next chapter once I get a review on this one, so review.
