Thank you dpdp for your loyal reviews and the rest of you, it always makes my day! I've got a lot more time on my hands now so expect faster updates! Enjoy :)

The next morning Hammond is walking through the briefing room and sees a very anxious looking Captain Rogers who works on both SG3 and SG6. Hammond confused comes to a halt before him.

Hammond: Good morning Captain, how may I help you?

Rogers: (nervously) Sir, I (pauses to think) have something to talk to you about.

Hammond: Well come on in. (They both sit down in his office) Now, whats bothering you?

Rogers: It has come to my attention that Major Carter is currently being held for being the member of the base that has been communicating with the Goa'uld? (Hammond nods) Well, it wasn't her.

Hammond: (taken back) Well, we are working on that. Do you have any idea of who it may be?

Rogers: Yes sir I do.

Hammond: And?

Rogers: (nervously) Me.

Hammond: What?! Son do you know what you're saying? Evidence was found in Major Carter's locker-

Rogers: (unsure) Yes, I put it there.

Hammond: This does not make any sense.

Rogers: But sir, I've confessed.

Hammond: (confused) That you have. (sighs and calls for guards, to guards) I want Major Carter released immediately and tell her to go home and take the day off to rest- something she hasn't been doing. I want Captain Rogers placed into holding cell Delta 2 and nobody is to see him until I come down is that understood?

Guards: Yes sir. (Take away Rogers)

Guards arrive at level 16 and place Rogers into a cell. They then release Major Carter and she's completely confused.

Carter: What's going on?

SF 1: You're being released ma'am.

Carter: (surprised) what?! Why?-How?

SF 1: Somebody has come forward and taken full responsibility, General Hammond is currently clearing all charges from your name, you're free to go home.

SF 2: The general orders that you take the day off to rest.

Carter: This doesn't make sense? I've been locked up for a week and then someone takes the blame and I'm ordered to go straight home?

SF 1: Ma'am we're just following orders.

Carter: Yeah I get that. (confused) Thank you.

Carter makes her way to her car, she drives home and then gets out of her car and opens her front door, all the sudden she is jumped. Her bag slides across the floor and she fights back but her attacker holds her down firmly hitting her into the floor, she gives in for a few seconds taking the beating to regain energy then kicks up at her attacker and he falls to the ground. For about five minutes they're physically fighting, Carter runs and slaps the light switch on so she can see who's attacking her as she's at the wall he pins her against it and turns her to face him gripping her face tightly, she's being held in a position that she cannot escape. She looks up at the man and is shocked, hurt and totally confused.

Carter: Oh my Go- It is you.

Wade: You weren't supposed to put up such a fight Major.

Carter: What did you expect of me? What do you want from me?

Wade: A young captain has come forward and taken the blame for you.

Carter: For me? I haven't done anything. Who came forward?

Wade: Captain Rogers.

Carter: Who?

Wade: (laughs) Ha, you don't even know the boy poor who's done this for you.

Carter: I didn't- I don't understand?

Wade: Captain Rogers? You know, he is newly married, he has got twins that are 1 years old and his wife is pregnant again. Actually he has no support network because they're both only childs and both parents are deceased.

Carter: What's your point Wade?

Wade: Well a young man with everything to lose is taking the bullet for you.

Carter: Why? (wade doesn't answer) Why?! (Wade continues to stare at her ambiguously) You son of a bitch, you made him didn't you?

Wade: I may have persuaded him yes.

Carter: More like threatened. What do you think General Hammond is going to say about all this?

Wade: Your word against mine Major.

Carter: Why are you doing this? This set up, you got Captain Rogers to put himself on the line for me, why?

Wade: Because I know you, there's not a chance you'd let that boy lose everything so you'd be set free- especially as he's innocent.

Carter: (looks down and swallows knowing he's right) Why are you so adamant that I'm the person who's feeding the Goa'uld information?

Wade: (Smiles) Oh Sam, (winces at him using her first name) I know you didn't do it.

Carter: (Shocked) What?! Then why the hell have you implicated me in all of this? (He doesn't answer) Wade answer me. (He continues to just stare at her)

Wade: Just drop it.

Carter: (thinks for a moment) It's you isn't it. You're the one who's feeing the Goa'uld information, that's why you've been the one who's been there all the way in this. Using Captain Rogers against me will force me to accept the blame and then you'll be left alone.

Wade: Your word against mine.

Carter: I think they'll believe me.

Wade: What with all the evidence piled up against you? whether they believe it or not the proof says otherwise. Captain Rogers' family is suffering while we speak, I suggest you get yourself down there and confess your sins Major.

Carter: But it was you.

Wade: Rogers will be locked away, they're moving him in two hours. You can't say a word about my visit.

Carter: What do you think will happen Wade, it's gonna show up on me, and probably you.

Wade: Say you had an accident. (she looks away refusing) 198 Chestnut drive, is where Rogers lives, top left bedroom belongs to his children, the one opposite to him and his wife. I can just easily pay them a visit as I did you.

Carter: You wouldn't dare.

Wade: (raises an eyebrow) You want to test that?

Carter: (her jaw clenches, she's very angry) Fine I'll go. (he lets go of her and she shoves him to the ground) Get the hell out of my house! (He gets up and leaves slamming the door behind him)

She picks her stuff up and gets in her car to drive to the mountain.

Scene change- Carter has arrived at the General's office, she's tried to clean herself up but she has ripped open stitches, bruises and red marks scattered around her. She's in her green BDU's, she knocks and enters. Hammond stands up defensively.

Hammond: Major, what the hell has happened?

Carter: I went on a little walk and fell down some concrete stairs, I'm fine sir. But I need to talk to you about something.

Hammond: Take a seat.

Carter: Thank you. (reluctantly) Captain Rogers is innocent, I am the one giving the Goa'uld information.

Hammond: You don't seem to believe that.

Carter: No, no it's true sir, let him go and take me.

Hammond: I don't understand? You can't have done this Sam.

Carter: (tears inner eyes) I did it sir.

Hammond: What is going on? What's with all these confessions today?

Carter: I'm confessing to the crime that I have committed.

Hammond: Has this got anything to do with your newly found injuries?

Carter: No sir.

Hammond: Major Carter, me and you both know you did not do this there's no need to implicate yourself back into it.

Carter: Sir, I'm sorry. I'm taking full responsibility.

Hammond: You do realise what this means?

Carter: Yes.

Hammond: There is no escaping this now Major, you have made your final decision. (she is staring at the ground nervously and swallows, Hammond doesn't believe her but forces himself to follow protocol) Guards! (they enter) I want you to escort Major Carter back to her holding cell and I want Captain Rogers released. (Hammond and Carter maintain eye contact as she's leaves the room she seems sorrowful and Hammond is confused and hurt, he calls Walter and tells him to dial the gate up)

Scene change- SG1 rush through the gate confused.

O'Neill: (glad but confused) What's so urgent General that we were able to leave SG4 in charge of finishing negotiations?

Hammond: (seriously) Briefing in 15, be quick.
