Alright I know the last chapter was short, but I thought that scene really needed to stand alone. A lot of these stories see to be knocking Pete, and while I agree he and Sam shouldn't be together I don't think the character deserved the knock he's been getting and I refuse to add to it. So…

….

Sam woke. It was early morning and Sam couldn't figure out what had woken her, until she realized she couldn't breathe. She tried to move by her arms flailed around her without any control and she started to panic. She was going to die, she knew it, and Elizabeth wouldn't hear her silent death, she wouldn't be born. Neither would Grace or George, their beautiful faces swam in her mind and she started to cry, silently.

Then Elizabeth was there. A bright white light erupted from her hand before they were thrown into complete darkness, Sam's breathing returned and she gulped large ice cold gasps of fresh air, the scent of petunia's told Sam the window was open and she tried to sit up only to find that her limbs were too heavy to move. Sam suddenly felt a hand grasp her arm and felt a sensation like she was being pulled into a very tight tube. The room around her disappeared and a second later Sam found herself in the SGC infirmary.

"What happened?" Janet's words sounded fast and crisp.

"Anubis." Elizabeth answered. "I need two beds close together, I haven't got much time, and when he gets here don't let Torin in."

Two beds were rolled together and Sam felt herself rise into the air, without any support before the darkness of unconsciousness claimed her.

…

Janet watched in awe as Elizabeth lay her hands next to her mother palm up and rose her hands into the air, keeping her hands level with Sam's rising body. Elizabeth waved a hand and Sam hovered slowly over to one of the beds that had been pushed close together and lay gently onto the left one. Elizabeth then climbed onto the bed next to her mother and placed a hand on Sam's forehead and one on her heart. Without a word the girl drew a deep calm breath closing her eyes as she did, before collapsing onto the bed next to her mother.

It was ten minutes before Sam sat bolt upright. Elizabeth slipping off onto the bed beside her. "What?" Sam asked before realization struck her "No?" she whispered.

"Sam?" Janet asked "What's wrong?"

Sam flung her hand up to Elizabeth's throat, trying desperately to find a pulse. Almost crying with relief when she found it was steady and strong. "I thought."

"What happened Sam?" Janet asked as General Hammond walked in. his eyes widening in surprise to see her.

"I… I don't know. I woke up and I couldn't breathe. Then Elizabeth was there and… I think she threw a fire ball at someone and grabbed me and then…. Then I woke up here. I thought she had sacrificed herself for me. Torin said that if she isn't careful, he thinks she could kill herself when healing someone who is close to death." Sam answered.

"The rest of SG1 and SGT are on their way." General Hammond told her. "Elizabeth sent a… a message, before she brought you here. Torin called two minutes ago, he is coming to take care of Elizabeth."

"Actually sir." Janet said "Elizabeth asked me not to let him in when he gets here."

"Did she say why?" General Hammond asked.

"No." Janet said "But I think we should listen to her sir. She has the right to refuse to let someone see her."

"Very well." General Hammond answered "I'll trust you to keep him out shall I"

"You can let him in" Elizabeth's voice grumbled. "I just didn't want to argue with him about healing Mum. He really is a mother hen when he wants to be." Elizabeth turned over onto her back. "Now he can make me coffee. Or get me a beer."

"I'm not getting you a beer." Torin laughed from the door "You are under age."

"By two weeks" Elizabeth complained "Dad would get me a beer."

"No I wouldn't." Jack replied walking in behind Torin. "By the way I don't like traveling with that time sifter thingy."

"Time shifter" Torin smiled nodding "It does take some getting used to, but travelling with Elizabeth is worse."

"Are you two okay?" Jack asked ignoring Torin.

Elizabeth and Sam both nodded. "Mum may have some emotional damage though."

"What? What damage?" Sam asked. Jack looked from Sam to Elizabeth and back again, confused.

"Remember? You broke up with Pete." Elizabeth said.

"Yeah, but that was going to happen sooner or later. I'm just glad it happened now, ya know, before he could propose or something." Sam said quietly. Elizabeth nodded. Jack tried desperately not to look like all his Christmases had come at once, but the idea that Sam was no longer with Pete made his heart soar. And he silently thanked God that Pete had realised that Grace and George were Jacks, which he knew the moment he saw them.
