Fifth

The room was dark and the sound of clicking could be heard. Sam's body ached as she tiredly opened her eyes and looked around to see dark metallic walls.
'This isn't right?' She thought. 'An afterlife shouldn't look like this' Then it hit her, hard and fast. She wasn't dead. Sam inhaled sharply as tears came to her eyes. That bullet was her last resort and her freedom from the pain and agony she had been victim to. Sam wanted to sit up but didn't want to make it evident that she was awake, she wasn't ready for Fifth to come back and put her through torture again. Sam's broken arm throbbed painfully, she wished now she had painkillers to make the aching go away. Maybe if she laid there long enough she would die and Fifth wouldn't know any different.
"You're awake I see" A voice spoke from behind her. Sam swallowed hard she hadn't wanted to confront him yet, hadn't want to deal with the pain yet, but he knew she was awake, somehow he knew.
"I wish I wasn't" she whispered, her mouth dry. She didn't bother to get up, she was tired of fighting. Fifth look down at her with narrow eyes.
"You're weak" he stated, Sam would laugh if she wasn't so tired.
"I haven't eaten for days, of course I'm weak" She didn't want to argue, she just wanted to end her suffering. She was sure Jack and the others were on their way but she couldn't wait for them.
"I suggest you make up your mind, Samantha Carter. For freedom is no longer an option." Sam felt the tears come again. She didn't care if she showed weakness anymore. She hated him, she hated being trapped like an experimental rodent always being watched. Just then Fifth grabbed her by her good arm and pulled her up. She gritted her teeth under the pain as she shakily stood. Fifth looked over her pale face as he raised his hand towards her forehead. "Now shall we begin again?"
"No, please I beg you.... Please stop" Sam cried, breaking down under the thought of another torture session. "Please..." She collapsed under the stress and pain and fell to the floor in a heap, crying uncontrollably. Fifth saw her tears and looked at her curiously.
"You're crying" But Sam didn't reply. She didn't have the energy to. Just then he grabbed her by the hair. "Stop crying, you are weak if you cry, Samantha Carter"
"Kill me then!" She spat at him. "Kill me, show me how weak I am! I have no other options!" She glared at him. Suddenly he let her go with a shove and stood.
"I'll give you other option Samantha Carter" Sam watched as he waved his hand and the wall before them pealed back to reveal a cage. Sam gasped when she saw who was inside.
"Sam are you ok?" the familiar voice came.
"Sir, what are you doing here?" Sam breathed.
"Oh, we've just come to rescue you" Jack replied looking over at Daniel and Teal'C. "It's not working out too well I might add." Sam turned to Fifth.
"Please, I beg you let them go" She pleaded. Fifth looked down at her.
"I told you, Samantha Carter, I'd give you another option. Become my queen or I will kill your friends." Fifth started to move towards the cage. Sam watched as he waved his hand again and suddenly the walls transformed and turned into large sharp spikes.
"Hey watch it!" Jack yelled at Fifth. Suddenly the walls started to move and inch together, closing in on SG-1. "Oh this isn't good." Jack said as Daniel, Teal'C and himself huddled together in the middle of the cage.
"Indeed" Teal'C agreed. Sam tried to stand but her legs gave out.
"Stop it!" She yelled at him. It was then Fifth turned to her.
"I'm running out of patience, Samantha Carter." Fifth knelt down in front of her, staring at her coldly. "Now choose"
"Don't do it Sam!" Jack yelled at her. Sam swallowed hard, her mind raced as the spikes decreased in space. Time seemed to tick away slowly when suddenly.
"Alright" She said looking at Fifth. "You win, I'll be your queen, just let them go." She finished. Fifth smiled at her.
"I'm glad we have finally came to an agreement, Samantha Carter." He said standing. Sam watched as he waved his hand and the spikes stopped moving then faded back into the wall. Sam let out a breath with relief, she looked at Jack and saw concern in his eyes. She nodded back at him, telling him silently she was alright... for now. Fifth glanced over his shoulder and noticed this too, this attraction his Samantha Carter had for this man. He felt a new sensation, something he had never felt before... Jealousy. With a quick wave of his hand a thin spear shot out from the wall a speared Jack in chest.
"JACK!!" It was all in slow motion for Sam, she saw Jack fall back as Teal'C and Daniel raced for him, then with a quick movement Fifth moved his hand causing a wall to form between them and the cage, cutting her off from her friends. She turned on him.
"You said you wouldn't hurt them! You killed him!" Sam was trying desparetly from loosing consciousness as anger flooded her. Fifth approached her and knelt down again.
"He's not dead yet." Fifth grabbed a hold of her arm. "Now it's time to become my queen." Sam struggled under his grip.
"I won't become your queen, you'll have to kill me first" Sam spat at him. Fifth smiled down at her as he started to drag her from the room.
"I'm afraid Samantha Carter, you have run out of options"
