Jack was antsy. He was pissed that Anubis not only wanted to kill Sam, but it wasn't Sam he wanted dead, it was Elizabeth, Grace, George and Janet. He had yet to meet Grace's twin and knew that in their time Janet had yet to be born, but he was pissed that Anubis was such a coward that he was trying to kill them before they would be able to defend themselves. Well before they should be able to defend themselves.
Jack walked into the gym where he found Torin beating the living daylights out of one of the punching bags.
"You look like you could use a sparring partner." Jack said. Torin turned to look at him.
"Yes sir." Torin answered finally "But not you sir."
"You don't think you can take me?" Jack asked.
"No sir." Torin replied "But you cannot take me sir."
"Cocky, aren't you?" Jack said "As you say I zated you almost daily."
"Yes" Torin said "And Teal'c has punched me in the face twice a week sir."
"Because you're in love with Elizabeth?" Jack asked
"But you cannot take me hand to hand. Sir." Torin replied, neither confirming nor denying if he loved Elizabeth.
"Why do you say that?" Jack asked.
"I am part wraith sir." Torin answered "I am stronger than the average human sir."
"Prove it." Jack commanded stepping onto the mat.
Torin looked at him "No Sir." He turned away. Jack tackled the boy. Torin flipped him easily back onto the mat. "I will not fight you." He snapped at Jack.
"I could use a sparring match" Elizabeth said from the door.
"I will not fight you either." Torin answered her.
"I'll have to spar Teal'c then" Elizabeth shrugged as Teal'c walked through the door. Teal'c cocked an eyebrow.
"I do not believe you will provide a challenge for me." Teal'c said.
'Don't be so sure father." Rya'c entered.
Teal'c nodded and stepped onto the mat. Elizabeth stepped onto the mat.
"No using your powers" Rya'c told Elizabeth "This should be physical strength alone." Elizabeth nodded and looked at Teal'c. They bowed. Then they came together punching and kicking.
Within seconds Teal'c was flat on his back Elizabeth sitting on his legs, holing his hands together. She bent forward over his chest and kissed him on the cheek while Rya'c giggled at his father, Jack looked stunned and Torin stood leaning against the wall his arms crossed over his chest watching.
Elizabeth let Teal'c up.
"At least you didn't give him a concussion this time." Torin commented.
"Well if you'd sparred me, I wouldn't have to humiliate Teal'c." Elizabeth answered.
"Fine." Torin stood off the wall.
Teal'c jumped off the mat and everyone stood back to watch as Torin and Elizabeth sparred. It was over half an hour before Torin finally had Elizabeth on her back. He sat on her legs holding her hands either side of her head.
"Impressive" Jack commented, remembering how easily Elizabeth took down Teal'c.
"Not really" Puffed Torin climbing off Elizabeth "She's going easy." He glared at her. She shrugged, sweat covered both of them from head to toe.
"I want blue Jello, and I should check on Mum anyway." Elizabeth puffed as she left the room.
Torin watched after her.
"You are in love with her, aren't you?" Jack asked. Torin said nothing "Why don't you tell her? Or are you both military?"
"I'm not from earth." Torin replied. With a faint pop Grace appeared with a small boy about the same age as Grace, with honey blonde hair, and gold eyes just like Jacks.
"Tor" said the boy.
"Yes George?" Torin asked.
"Can I play with your computer?" George asked.
"Sure, go for your life." Torin answered.
"Where's Ellie?" Asked Grace.
"She just went to get some jello, then she's going to check on ya mum. From this time that is." Torin answered.
"Rya'c let's get some pie." Grace said.
"Okay." Rya'c replied taking the girls hand and leaving, Teal'c following behind him.
Sirens wailed through the base "Unscheduled off world activation" sergeant Harriman's voice sounded through the com system, Jack and Torin looked at each other and both headed for the control room together.
...
I may fiddle with this one again latter.
