Stargate Atlantis Trading Grounds I: The Return To La Rochelle
Warnings: This story is going to match the dialog, in the flashback memories, of chapter 4, of the past meets the present series. As it also follows the complete mental breakdowns, of the human half of the team. And Robert Makepeace and Adam Johnson, so the story is going to follow the dialog to the letter exactly. Along with some new dialog that was not in the fast forwarded portion in the flashbacks.
Basing this in real time, rather then the show, of 25 years ago, Antarctica was a neutral zone for research so military research was not allowed out there. And with it, as the chair is considered military technology, it was meant to be last resort. In case of another orbital attack, so the outpost is now trade and exploration. So with this chapter, is the colony/crew is now getting used to being a slightly underwater crew.
As he's getting to work in trading to bring in more improvement for the planet at large now, so a military attack. Just to bring him back to the states, is attempted, is an international. In incidents and enough to get them convicted for kidnapping now, with his clearance. So from here, is he's dropping in on Ry'ac and Drey'auc and before the press conference. And just before his first stop in planets is to Gaea, home of the Nox.
This chapter will finish off this portion of the story-line, as the next two chapters and forward, cover chapter 2, going by the name. And of The Glory Of Tantulus, which covers things, from his going to the races and Tok'ra creation of the treaty. And his return to Shyla, before the following Chapters cover the the breakdowns of the trio and Carter, who's lost her ability to function mentally, out of desperation now.
As the mission was sanctioned, and he was transferred to Landry and the Atlantis team at the time. As Rodney McKay, Cam Mitchell, Vala Mal Doran, Hank Landry, Frank Simmons, Steven Caldwell, John Shepard. And Elizabeth Weir enter the picture here, the story will have Daniel and Teal'C joining their team. As the SGA is founded 5 years early, and moved into the outpost on earth….
Disclaimers: I don't own the shows, the story belongs to everything else belongs to the creators and the movie companies.
Chapter 103: Changes And The Base Meetings III
"She hears everything we're saying, but thank god you two are clones, so she's killed 2 people, if you and Ted get it next.." he said and he nodded. "It's just a figure of speech." he said to that and he nodded. "Tell her that." he said to him, as they saw it on the monitor. 'I WANT TO TALK. NOW. NOW. RIGHT NOW. NOW.' it said suddenly the proximity alarm started going off, and Parker came in. "What's that?" she said to him then quickly.
And Daniel grabbed her by the arm and said it softly into her ear. "The ability went to the next step, she's hearing everything we're saying out loud. And is now acting like a spoiled 3 year old, throwing a temper tantrum and, possibly. Just manifested some monster from the abyss downstairs." he said and she nodded, as she, Henderson, Walker and Alexander surrounded him as Barnes moves to the console, pushes buttons and turns dials.
"Sonar, it's picking something up out there." he said and Henderson said it carefully, knowing her megalomania was slowly forming here now. As he had to be careful in how he said this. "Cam, we all find you a fascinating and wonderful entity. And we wish to talk to you for many, many hours, Cam - you know that." he said to her as the next one came out and Parker nodded. "Gone right to her head." she said into his ear and he nodded sternly.
"In your great understanding and wisdom, Cam, you must understand that entities such as ourselves need to talk alone sometimes." he said and Alexander nodded and it said it. 'ARE YOU AFRAID?' it said and he said it. "No, we're not afraid, it's whatever power you carry is a little disconcerting." he said, and it went blank. "Where did she go?" she said and he said it in fury. "God damnit." he said and as Barnes turns suddenly alert.
"What's going on?" Walker said and he nodded. "I'll go to the environmental controls here." Daniel said and they nodded. "Eric go with him, in case we get a pressure drop, we have to stabilize here." Barnes said and he nodded and they took off then. "Something's clogging everything up out there." he added and Parker nodded then as she goes to the porthole. "Brandon, come here!" she said and he moves to join her quickly as he got a look.
"God it's back." She said to him and he nodded. "Peripheral sensors activated. I'm going to try and image it on the fast acting sonar." Barnes said to her then quickly, as they get a look at it, seeing what looked like one of the Ancient drones on the screen. "Building image... Eighty yards and moving fast..." he said to them then. "My God, it's forty feet long." Alexander said to that in shock from behind her, as they got a better look then quickly then.
"Fifty yards." he said to that as the noise started getting worse. "Re-imaging."he and nodded as they exchanged looks. "That's the same image I saw when you were looking for Teeny." he said and they both nodded sternly. "It looks like a giant squid, these animals don't get bigger then 50." she said and he nodded. "A giant squid the size of this entire habitat? There's no such animal here."Schrieber said bemuse and she nodded them.
"That may be, but that doesn't mean it's not out there." she said and he nodded."Re-imaging. Thirty yards. Another slightly clearer image... It sure looks like a squid alright, she's been reading 20,000 leagues under the sea." Barnes said sternly and Henderson nodded, as the next jolt got their attention. "I'm going to help the guys." Alexander said and Barnes nodded, as he took off, just as the pressure started getting low.
"Guys you read me?" he called into the radio then. "Yeah!" Daniel shouted out over the noise. "Daniel the pressure's been breeched, increase the positive pressure 25%." he said and Daniel nodded, as he turned it up 35%, just as the next blast knocked him into the wall and he slumped to the floor "Whoa." They heard as a pipe burst then. "Karen get down here, he's hurt!" Jackson shouted then and she and Hoffman charged downstairs quickly at that.
"Concussion, and the shrapnel gouged him in the upper thigh." he said to her and she nodded, and they nodded. "If that's not going too far and nothing ever is, she just put him in the E.R. here to drive him back to the SGC. But no matter what she does, we're not budging and neither is he, this is less dangerous right now. And less then going to system lord planets all the time here." Hoffman said sternly, looking at the monitor and she went pale at that remark.
Knowing going about it like this was enough to get her tried, for nearly killing 3,500,000 people, but she knew there wasn't choice, no him she didn't stand a chance. No matter how much he refused, she had to try, her freedom depended on it. "I call that going too far, after I went upstairs, the 5 of us are alive we know that, but still." Renfro said and they nodded then. "And it only got worse, right before he passed out, if I'm right, he put out the fire after the attack."
"We're down one team mate, because our youngest was knocked unconscious from putting out the fires, but evidently Pyro never thought trying to over use it. Could knock him unconscious, which is why he's about to go hogwild with it." Henderson said and they nodded. " And bad side effect, we're trapped down here with a total nutbag and she's trying to take us out. One by one here now, so no us, no reason to stay." Levy sternly and they crossed their arms sternly then.
"I got him...I got him..." she said to him, as he turned it back to off then. "Done, Dave! We're still leaking, increase the habitat carpet absorbers." he said and he quickly did that. "Yeah alright got it, we're draining the water from the engineering section, ee're okay." he said, though just as he finished saying that, they heard a loud clang as the jolt jostled the room. "What the hell's out there?!" she said, protecting Daniel's head then.
And from further injury, and as Barnes quickly stood up then. "Brandon, listen to me, whatever this is, it's not letting go, we don't have a choice here now. You have got to pull the green lever marked 'High Voltage Defense System.'." he said and he nodded, and quickly did it. "We're okay: We don't have to be right all the time." he said and she nodded in relief, as Daniel suddenly stands up, somewhat dazed at the blow to the head quickly.
"Has anybody got some Advil?" he said and he nodded gently, as multiple alarms started going off then. "Oh, God! Brandon, we've got a fire in the Comm Room. Get up there. I'll meet you with gas masks in case we need them." he said and they nodded as she gets up. "Like hell I'm staying in here." she said as they help Daniel out and get up stairs then quickly, as they deal with the fire in the comm room then, as they grabbed the extinguishers.
"Wait." Daniel said, holding his hand out. "Daniel, Daniel don't!" She shouted, as he threw everything he had into it, and went out all out then, as the blast. Then knocked Alexander's clone to the floor and set him on fire and Barnes's clone had been cut in half. And as Daniel put out the fire and then collapsed."Danny!" Henderson shouted as he moved to him, as she and Walker charged to him. "He's unconscious, but he's okay." she said and he nodded then.
"That's it, in order to prevent the habitat's total destruction, he risks putting himself in the infirmary, like a true hero would, totally selfless. We and everyone on board the ship came first, over his own health, let's get him in the infirmary. And then get to work in fixing this right now." he said and they both nodded in agreement then, as they carried him up to the infirmary and laid him back on the bed, as she took care of him then.
"Yeah she's lucky we put out the fire, it reaches the propane tank it would have started a chain reaction till it destroyed the entire ship." Jackson said sternly and she swallowed hard. "Suicide terrorism, anyone?" Stone said sternly and Sam paled, realizing to them, she was a terrorist and this was illegal, she could be tried and convicted here for this. "This peer pressure crap is too much, status quo, bull crap, this is a hostage situation, so long as you had the search now."
"Nothing changes, but as soon as you give it up they're trying to discourage you, they're acting like a bunch of bratty teenagers. Even go so far as attempted sabotage, trying to control you, if not control is attempted murder. So this is basically with us or against us, but against us, we'll wreck your career, well not if we ultimately destroy yours, people. And we had, so much so, you're not going near that child for 2 years." Hoffman said sternly and she went white at that.
"And yes we do mean that young lady, young man, that was your only way to keep him in line, claiming he's a goa'uld sympathizer, only wrong goa'uld. But you see this as system lord or Tok'ra same difference, it's he's sympathizer, you're one to talk here. No Sha're, the status quo has been cut and he's free to pursue other interests and you don't want that. You're all a bunch of bratty teenagers trapped in adult bodies." he said sternly and they swallowed hard then.
"Nice try, we just make her paranoia worse." Collins said sternly then and Hoffman nodded smiling sternly. "We must have fallen asleep after the adrenaline surge caved in here, you were busy at the computer, trying to get the systems back on manually. The blast and stopping the fire from reaching the tanks knocked Daniel unconscious now. And Sam and I got him to the infirmary, while we lost the duo's clones, and we been up for 10 hours." Stone said to him then.
"And keeping her from getting near the computers, is why I'm there now." he said sternly to this then. "Brandon, Brandon can you hear me, Brandon, do read me, if you're awake answer me, Brandon?" they heard from Barnes, trying to rouse him awake and he came to, as he slammed his hand on the radio, as he answered him. "Yes, yes.., okay, Dave, yeah I hear you." Hoffman said, as he was shaking, feeling the adrenaline start to wear off then.
And Coyote said it. "Brandon we're fine, remember the clones, listen to me, I got to Derek right now we made it just in time, but the girls, Ted and I are fine. And we're putting together a supply list, while fixing the site to site transporter." he said and Hoffman nodded in relief. "Daniel prevented the fire from getting to the tanks, in the galley right now, but the attempt with that concussion, knocked him unconscious."
"Can you get us out that way?" he asked and he sighed then. "It's like the Barque of heaven, we can beam supplies in, but we can't get you out. And till the timer on the emergency pressure seal deactivates." he said and Hoffmam nodded. "How long do we have exactly?" he asked and he said it firmly. "That's 7 to 10 days, how's he doing, after that blow to the head during the attack right now." he said and he said it, trying finally.
"Concussions and elemental powers, bad mix." Daniel said and they nodded. "This is why we're not allowing you to over extend yourself, and don't give me any trouble. If this happens for real, though before we never had a problem and not till she arrives right now. Does your former dangerous life crash into our nice safe one right now, but no, no matter what she does. You are never going back." Hoffman said and the 8 nodded in agreement then gently at that then.
As the 4 of them talking, as Sam enters, as they prepared for the final decision, if there was another close call attack, and the one causing was being arrested. And for reckless endangerment of the civilians on board the ship. "How'd it go with the mini-sub?" she said and he said. "It was a little disconcerting out there, actually." he said and she froze. "Oh?" she said and he nodded. "Nice try, not fooling us." Stone said to this sternly at that.
"Agreed, you're trying to play innocent here, or trying to put blame on me, because you're jealous of how close he is to me and Ted, is not fooling us right now. As for the queen, just when are you going to get over that." Jackson said sternly and she swallowed hard at that. "Weren't you supposed to be watching me from the control room?" he said and she said it then "Eric said he'd take over for me, he sat down right…, in front of the monitors.."
"And…, Daniel, what happened?" she asked and he said it. "I was in trouble, where the hell were you?" he asked and she said it shakily, realizing, once again, this was based on another Sha're. "What's going on, Daniel?" she asked and he said it, as the quartet were all staring at her. "All I know is, going out to find food in the spacecraft when there's plenty of food here, isn't exactly normal."he said and she looked at him in shock then.
"What do you mean, plenty of food? I was just here. There's nothing in th…"she said, and checked and saw food, as Jackson said it sternly then. "Ta-da…, a veritable horn of plenty." he said and she turned around slowly. "He must've hidden it." she said, shaking and he scoffed then. "You think I hid all this food, how exactly, there is no chance of that, and not when we can't leave the habitat." he said sternly and she said it, shaking, to him.
"I don't know what's going on here, but twenty minutes ago I was standing right here and there was no food in the cupboards and no food in the refrigerator." she said and he nodded."Why, Sam? Why would Eric do that? Why would he set you up?" he said carefully and she started shaking in fear. "I'm telling you, I was standing right here, and this food was not here." she said and Jackson said it sternly to her at that remark then.
"Uh huh, okay you promised to watch out for me and you didn't, you went to find food, that we already have, hello red flag here. And while you're looking for food, I'm close to a black out, from another medical emergency. And out of hypoxia, my cord blacked, out, and Eric had to come in after me, get me out. It's Goodman's incident with rapid cooling effect with the helium here." Daniel said and Hoffman crossed his arms then.
"Which is why I'm dressed like this, repeated hot drinks, wrapped in blankets, the team doctor said. That I'm very lucky, beyond lucky right now, were it not for their fast thinking, I would be dead right now, out of asphyxiation right now. So again why you leave the camera room, when my anchor blacked out right now?" he asked, and she started shaking violently in fear, realizing Hoffman as Henderson, too, was another psychiatrist.
"I'm telling you, I was standing here, and this food was not here." she said again, shaking in fear. "Oh and I guess you chose the moment that I'm doing my shift to do it again, you remember La Rochelle. You didn't care, I was on the mend, you want me to speed things up?" he asked and she went white in fear at the remark and memory of the trip to La Rochelle. and Stone shook her head as Hoffman crossed his arms sternly to that then.
"But please, you can't handle the isolation of life underwater, like going into space, via spaceship, for weeks on end. Being on a spaceship, once you create army transports is going to be just like this, are you going to crack, from space dementia." she asked her sternly then and she paled, realizing she didn't have what it takes to be a astronaut now. Because she couldn't handle physical and mental rigors of training in space, and Daniel's job.
Said was exactly that, in 0-G gravity perimeters now training in water was the very same thing, and Daniel was perfectly fine with the job, her, was she cracked immediately. "And with the mental and physical rigors of working in space, so you don't freak out on the asteroid. Same thing, and this says clearly, you're suffering space dementia." she said sternly and Walker finished that, looked at her, as he made it clear, she was suffering a nervous breakdown.
"Calling Captain Carter, calling Captain Sam Carter, please return to reality." Walker said to her then and that did it. "Shut up!" she said at him and then said it to Daniel. "Okay, you can see what he's doing to me." she said and he said it. "Can I Sam, after Sha're, the sarcophagus, and Machello, as you were supposed to be watching, Sam. You were supposed to be watching, but you were not there at all." he said and broke it down.
"It's been what, 9 months, since your father changed you back, I been living here, and these guys are my best friends, they never lie to me, I been coming into the habitat. And for these last 11 months the job never bothered me at all, you come and all sorts of trouble happens?" he asked and she started shaking violently, realizing how bad that looked, after the Euronda mission, he did a stint or two in real habitat now then at the tone.
"No I been doing this off and on, and for 10 months, I been down here 79 times in 10 months, this makes my 80th time. To them, I'm a natural at this, but the one time we bring you on board. But my locker is next to their's, my underwater suit, to them, I'm part of their team, just like I'm Andy's next in command here." he said and she paled, realizing he did it so often the effects didn't get to him, this was her first time and she cracked.
"But you promised to watch out for me and you didn't, you went to find food, that we already have, hello red flag here. And while you're looking for food, I'm close to a black out, from another medical emergency. And out of hypoxia, my cord blacked, out, and Teal'C had to come in after me, get me out. It's Goodman's incident with rapid cooling effect with the helium here." Daniel said and Henderson crossed his arms then.
"Which is why I'm dressed like this, repeated hot drinks, wrapped in blankets, Uncle Dave said, that I'm very lucky, beyond lucky right now. As were it not for Eric's fast thinking, I would be dead right now, out of asphyxiation right now. So again why you leave the camera room, when my anchor blacked out right now?" he asked, and she started shaking violently in fear, realizing Henderson, too, was another psychiatrist then.
"I'm telling you, I was standing here, and this food was not here." she said, shaking in fear "Calling Captain Carter, calling Captain Sam Carter, please return to reality." Jackson said to her and that did it. "Shut up!" she said at him and then said it to Daniel. "Okay, you can see what he's doing to me." she said and he said it. "Can I Sam, after Sha're, the sarcophagus, and Machello, as you were supposed to be watching, Sam."
"You were supposed to be watching, but you were not there at all." he said and broke it down."It's been what, 9 months, since your father, I been living here, and these guys are my best friends, they never lie to me, I been coming into the habitat. And 9x's out of 10, after Svetlana contacted us, saying she locked onto something. And Maybourne got arrested now?" he asked and she started shaking violently, realizing how bad now.
That this looked now, after jumping another Unas now, he did a stint or two in real habitat now then at the tone. "So said episode encounter with another Unas?" Cooper asked and he nodded sternly. "Yeah non canon, by then we had the cloning technology, everyone dead, was now a clone and their host was safely at the base. The most we can do is give the Marisposans a few cells, in exchange for a cloning machine or two, so once finding the Bringloidi, it solves it."
"As Kate said, after 300 years, they're among the walking dead, just haven't been buried, that it's another non canon episode. I never met the Unas, from another episode the following year now, because we been staying off the system lord planets." Daniel said and Cooper nodded. "So the first episodes are canon, aside from two incidences were non canon, as you and Teal'C chose SGA, and they were SGC, I understand." he said and the duo nodded in agreement then.
"No I been doing this off and on, and for 10 months, I been down here 79 times in 10 months, this makes my 80th time. To them, I'm a natural at this, but the one time we bring you on board. But my locker is next to their's, my underwater suit, to them, I'm part of their team, just like I'm Andy's next in command here." he said and she paled, realizing he did it so often the effects didn't get to him, this was her first time and she cracked.
"As Dave would later say, to Brandon, well what I understand here, a thousand feet underwater and with no link to the surface. Said is just about the most dangerous place on the planet, if there's a problem, I need to know, right now, Commander." he said and she started shaking violently, as she saw the stern looks at her, realizing as a flyboy. A gate traveler, she was not well equipped to handle, in being underwater for days on end.
"But we're 145 fathoms down, and currently there is a blizzard going on upstairs, in your department, and it got more dangerous. As, you're the resident schizophrenic on board, one we're all waiting to flip out and crack up. I decided to give you a chance and then told David about your mental history here. Just who the hell are you kidding, when are you going to get over that?!" he asked and she went white and they nodded.
'That's the facts, you promised to watch out for me and you didn't, you think Eric said something. He didn't, you think that the cupboards are empty, when they're full..., clinically, is we would classify that as a psychotic break, alright." he said and she said it quickly then to this. "I'm not crazy, Daniel. What're you gonna do? Write me a prescription? Just get rid of me? Well, it's not that convenient down here, Daniel."
"Okay, I am not psychotic." she said shaking and he said it in response then, sounding every bit as much like as Hoffman as possible then he got up. "How about a mini-psychotic break then." he said, walking around the table, while Parker was standing, ready to catch him if necessary, with his ankle healing from this. "She's hanging onto her anger, because she doesn't want to admit she's not strong enough." Hammond said, crossing his arms and he nodded.
"That's not fair." she said and he snapped it out. "Sam!" he said and she said it shakily and he read it out. "What?" she said and he nodded. "Sam, I'm down there, my cord blacked out here, I can't breathe, I'm hyperventilating, the man saved me!" he said and she said it quickly. "But I..." she started to say and Daniel snapped it off, as he exchanged looks with Walker, who nodded in agreement, as Barnes, Alexander and Parker crossed their arms.
And as he said it sternly then, as he read out his entire annoyance of this. 'Yeah little brother finally had enough of this crap, her holding on to this.' they heard with a stern tone, and knew that was Parker's mental voice thought to this. "Wait a minute, now you want me to believe that the man set me up, why, this isn't 'Alice in Wonderland'. Remember 'just you and me babe'?" he said, as he moved around table as he walked up to her then.
As he went further, having had enough of her insulting his friends, trying to claim everything as his fault, that he wasn't strong enough. And this sabotage attempt, to him, said the very last straw. "The only one strong enough right now here, is me, but think it over Captain, would I throw you to the wolves to keep going, would I lie right to your face. In saying I didn't know where your husband is but I do know, knowing I get caught?"
"And I'm facing being arrested and tried for obstruction of justice." he said and she started shaking in fear, realizing that was it then finally as he went further. "Would I try to throw you up in my place, to free myself from this connection, knowing damn well. When you find out what really happened I'm facing being arrested for attempted murder, that is it unrealistic to think here that at this point, you are a danger."
"To yourself, you are a danger to all of us..., that your misguided anger towards me. For something not my fault, but your own commander, who's still in that psychiatric hospital right now, for something. That I don't know, happened 3 years ago, because his incompetence is so distorted in his head, that your own. Is so distorted in your head, just because I never told you, when that trap was meant for him, not for you."
"When it was that happened 3.5 years ago, after I left to get that back pay off 2 years ago, it's all out of sight, out of mind here, in my instructions here. In watching out for the key sentence, and yet you think I'm just being overly cautious, but the truth is. Unlike you I did college frat parties repeatedly, preventing a date rape, I don't know now how many times, it's been 16 years at the moment, since I got out of college."
"That this is so distorted in your head, like a drug here, you just can't let it go, because I never was there, that why should you. In truth, be there for me, that's what it comes down, revenge, pure and simple, you blame me. I was out there, you almost got me killed, the man tried to save my life, you now want me to disbelieve Eric?!" he said and she said it in frustration, finally admitting it then to him, wishing she listened to him.
And sooner, and yet her own pride just destroyed her life. 'There we go, he latched onto me, since we met and to him, why believe anything she says, after she lied to him. And one too many times, Aramis was never his fault, she should have the common sense. Just to know better, then to be drinking on duty, and the key sentence too.' they heard sternly in Jackson's mental voice to that and Hoffman nodded sternly to that response then.
"Yes!, yes I want you to disbelieve Eric, I want you to look at me and believe me here, for one time, Daniel, don't you...? Just look at me, Daniel! Am I telling you the truth?" she said and he said it firmly, knowing everything he and the quintet had gone through together now, that nothing would ever be the same again. So her or them and Teal'C, it would always be them now. "You weren't there, Sam." he said in response firmly and she nodded firmly then.
In knowing she lost him to them, as the quartet crossed their arms. 'Here it comes, the tone that sounds like a threat to us, but she's not a deepsea diver, she has no idea what. In truth, she's doing and this next attempt, out of crazed jealousy, it could be me, Ted or Karen and it's enough to put her behind bars, if she attacks one of us now. Just to break him, if she had gone in there.' they heard then, as they heard a jealous tone then.
"You want to believe Eric, Daniel, then that's fine, because he's done everything but part the sea for you. Since we've been down here, but I'm telling you that he is not telling you the truth." she said and Henderson crossed his arms. "You realize that sounds like a threat, you don't care about anything but yourself, to protect yourselves. You try to have me killed, and put the blame on them, and they catch it, before it kills me."
"Now here, this is not about Eric, okay, it never was, this is about you and me, it always was isn't it, you lied to me. And because you followed that bastard, you ignored the rules, that it, you never listen to me anyway. Continue to follow him, all the while treating me like crap, why should I put up with it. That I have a life here now, my place is with the team, Sarah, her parents, this is where I belong now."
"As Frank said, I'm not putting up with your crap forever, just because you can't admit your way is not the only way here now. But I'm not going anywhere, and you just committed a felony here." Daniel said and she looked at him then carefully. "You hate the fact that I'm getting us more then ever, all without stealing, by following their rules. But the cloning machines, the fleet, it's close to being ready now, more naquada now."
"To create it, in your version of the fleet, medicine to keep us strong and healthy, that why should I go back, we're bringing in everything but weapons right now. Technology to make the world a better place, shouldn't you be happy about that exactly. Or is it only your own safety that matters, instead of the safety of the entire planet." He said and she said it slowly, realizing Daniel had changed completely now then.
And into a completely different person at that. "He didn't tell you what's inside The Sphere, did he." she said and turned to Jackson. "You didn't tell him, did you? You didn't tell him what's inside the Sphere, did you?" she said and Jackson repeated the remark as he said it sternly then. "And how would you know that, Sam?" he asked her then and Daniel froze and looked at her. "Sam, did you go inside The Sphere?" he asked and ended it then.
"Even if we did, we had the right mind, not to abuse the power, the way the NID did, Carter, as such right now, is this is not about us, it's about you. In fact it's always been about you, claim you're stronger then a civilian, and yet you ignore it. In the most basic guidelines, and get slapped with the penalty, all because. It's you never exercise, in common sense, you know the brass said no drinking on duty right now."
"But you're just not equipped to handle being underwater, or out in space, a spaceship for days on end, you need to be strong, both physically and mentally. He spent the last year training in the rigors of being in both, both physically. And mentally and mastered it, but look at you, 2 weeks, and you crack right now." Stone said sternly to her then and she swallowed hard at that remark, realizing they all mastered the power already.
"Did you go in there or not, as with your frame of mind, you're dangerous to yourself, and to us?!" Jackson said and she swallowed hard, as Hoffman stepped forward and injected the sternest tone possible. With a patient that was beyond the point of desperation, acting like a beyond violent and dangerous person, in military officers. "You expect me to not take that earlier tone seriously here, that attack one of us to break him, so he goes back."
"That what we have here, after that stunt, and the squid attack is the actions of a violent, driven to the brink of desperation, act. What have we got to do right now exactly, manifesting that power, with your frame of mind. Is a bomb waiting to go off, and one that we're getting off this ship, before you kill us. And everyone on board, did you forget already right now young lady, we have 75,000 people on board this ship."
"The habitat is connected to the battle bridge, which is connected to the saucer section, you're dangerous, to yourself and to all of us right now. That enough is enough, you just proved to me your desperation over Aramis is still the full frontal. And of your mind, and enough that anger is a time bomb waiting to go off!" Hoffman said sternly, looking at her with a warning look, like he had Jack the year before at the time.
"Get to your quarters, you're under house arrest till further notice!" he shouted at her and she swallowed and left the room then. "Eric we need to break down who this Cam really is, as it's definitely not Cam Mitchell, he would never hurt me." he said and Walker nodded in agreement. "Wait a damn minute here, she shoved the lettering a step further here, to the left, G is 1, Y is 2, T is 3, F is 4, C is 5, and we go from there, Danny."
"Based on what Goodman said about that power, it brings our inner most desires to lives, and fears, desires, seems your theory here. That it unlocks the inner most completely, but she's scared of commitment, and after hearing a scream. Looks like she had a full manifestation psychotic break, of Aramis, coming out of her closet." Hoffman said and he nodded. "Agreed." the trio said sternly to this and he nodded then.
"So two options, dreamless sleep, or I call her to the lab, but we're flooding the lab with anestazine, but enough is enough. Sedation and dreamless sleep, there's no escaping the lab, and not when the windows are shielded here. But another dunk out there, you're going to kill yourself, there's no escape hatch to get outside. But protecting ourselves from here, starting now." Stone said and he nodded in agreement.
"That's the only option we have here in order to protect ourselves from the traitors with them convinced that everything is tanked and they'd run into them on every planet they go to. But it's not his job to prevent them from making fools of themselves nor is telemetry his job. He's paid to bring in information on the cultures we visit, exactly as the president said right now. So this is not his job, to prevent them from making fools of themselves," Hoffman said sternly to this.
"Alright replay that right now, so we got it all figured out, because with you three being his friends, Peter and I his commanders, and Dale his doctor right now. That the team is his family and they're the enemy, as you would later tell me, Sharon, can't let him go back. They're going to screw him up permanently and that non existent war with the system lords. Will take away everything he is, so no, not happening." he said and she and Jackson nodded in agreement.
"Agreed, you're never going back." Stone said, gripping his hand tightly. "In putting out the fire, he knocked himself out, evidently this power is too much. And for whoever goes in there, if they never studied meditation and patience techniques. But for someone that only used the first three, it's too much, but from here on in. I'm not letting him out of my sight now, but 7 to 10 days, just based on what he told me, she cracked."
"During the 8th gate after ending up in the obstacle course right now, so if after 5 days, we have her mental state start deteriorating. It's directly as you said to George, well what I understand is 900 to 1,000ft underwater in an exotic gas environment. Is about the most dangerous environment known to man, that why send her here. And when she never had the required training, in diving this low before, like Danny has."
"But if we have a repeat of their argument, Daniel's saying everything for me and you, in how we see this, the psychotic break, in an argument. It's now a case, of making clear Robert let her out too soon, and she needs another 6 months right now. The 4 of us can make it that long, her not so much, as she never was a deepsea diver. Nor did she ever travel by ship, so this is a test of mental strength." he said, knowing she'd fail.
"Alright, you're in charge from here, Brandon, just hold things together, and we're getting what supplies needed, how's the repair job on your side exactly." he asked and he nodded. "We just finished stabilizing everything, although the attack did considerable damage to our equipment here. I think, I know, someone is having a plot here to scare him back to the SGC, so NID plot for control." he said and Haden nodded.
"Well the decision is final, he's staying here, but execute order 69565, if she comes up with some plan to further effect this." he said and Hoffman nodded, knowing that this meant they decided to make sure she got this event erased from her memory. And making it so Daniel's clone was her archeologist."Next communication in 48 hours, after delivery, Haden out." he said and Hoffman nodded, as he leaned back in relief, his team was alive.
And intact, getting to work he set the clock for 360 hours, and then inputted, high caffeine and sleep deprivation recovery, on the medical terminal. "Ente, you hear me?" he asked and he got an immediate response. "Yes Captain Henderson." She said and he smiled in relief. "Ente, I want you to stop all caffeine use starting now, in the habitat, after the attacks, Commander Jackson has a level 3 concussion, from stopping the fire."
"From destroying the tanks, he needs to rest, from that blow to the head now, as for me, and Commanders Walker and Parker. We're getting some much needed rest, so as soon as the supplies, are teleported in, start organizing. And between health: 80% good, 20% bad, and anything higher than a can of coke in caffeine levels is forbidden. We need to get as much rest as possible." he said and knew she nodded to the orders.
And directly to the storage room, before putting level 50 security lock out on that door. "You guys okay, how are you holding up, exhaustion wise?" he asked and Jackson looked at the camera. "I could sleep for a week." he said and she nodded. "Me too, Brandon." she said and he nodded sternly and said it. "Yeah alright with the fact we had two attacks in 3 days, since being trapped down here right now, listen up now, we're going sleep aid."
"Guys, listen to me, the transporter system in site to site is damaged, they can't teleport us out, so we're stuck for 15 days now. But they're sending us enough supplies to last for the next 2 weeks." he said and the duo nodded sternly then. "I'm coding the computer controls to us and Daniel only, as she's a psychiatric patient. That we need to watch, so with that, we're going medical recovery here right now."
"So Karen check your medical equipment, and remove anything that could be used for a stimulate, we need to get some rest now. And Eric, with you recovering from the mental blast by that thing, we're getting as much rest as possible. So normal diet without the stimulates, as low sugar, no caffeine, and not with that head injury right now." he said and they nodded, and got to work, as he closed the cover to the controls then.
Before he came to check on Daniel, and ran his hand through his hair. "Baby, didn't we already talk about this, you can't use your explosion or pyrokinesis powers, or this happens. Concussion maybe pal, but once awake, and up and about, I'm not leaving you alone, if that headache starts getting worse, you're in recovery for a while. But don't push it, before you aggravate that concussion." he said, wrapping his arm then.
And across him, as he checked the cut to his forehead, seeing it in the same spot that it was, after he got launched out of the gate 2 years prior, as he turned his head to him. "Shh, it's okay baby, just sleep you're safe right now." he said softly, stroking his hand through his hair, knowing the 3 year old in him needed him more then ever now. "And this is where dealing with your adult cub's inner toddler patient comes into it." Hoffman said with a chuckle then.
'Head hurt papa, hurt real bad.' they heard and he nodded. "I get why, but for now, you cub, need nap time, so just sleep for now." he said gently, and he stroked his hair gently with paternal care then and Daniel hid a smile then to that response. "Great the damn side effects of that serum just brought out little us for life now. As baby to borderline preteen us is trapped in our adult bodies right now." Alexander said as he started laughing at that response.
"How we doing downstairs there?" she asked and he nodded. "Eric's still fixing the control panels, he just told me, she's in the galley." he said and she nodded. "Lock her out of the computer, as it took till further analysis to realize Jerry is Harry. We're starting early, so we just wait for it, we been stuck down here so long now. She lost track of the days, so whatever was manifested is nocturnal." she said and he nodded.
"I'm going to see if I can talk to this character now, see who put out the fire or if Daniel did that, after the blast stunned him here now. So he managed to stay awake long enough to put out the fire first, before he blacked out. Draining the last of his strength, he's been unconscious for hours, that blow. As it would take 10 to 48 hours, before he came around." he said and she nodded. "We just wait." she said and he nodded.
As he walked to the control room, and checking the damage, before Walker walked in. "I fixed the transporter, the guys, Teeny, Rose and Queenie just sent down. In some fresh supplies, in all areas right now, though why anyone would try go fishing here. Is beyond me, unless they try to spear these animals, and I want natural food. Not seafood." he said and he nodded."If she's in the galley, watch her." he said to him then.
"Just 5 people and the entire team are alive, we'll be fine for a few days, Haden said that weather is going north from our position, so 15 days." he said and Henderson nodded. "Alright we can make it 15 days, as we got enough for 20 days, but that blow to the head, he's still unconscious. So we're keeping them separated, but if she's not bothering still to sit with him, like a real team mate would, and tries something else."
"She's being confined to quarters till the clock runs out here right now, Karen's with him right now, you handle the supplies. It's divided evenly between us right now, but I'm not letting him out of my sight after he comes to." he said and he nodded. "With that injury who would exactly right now, but she was asleep during the attack." he said and he nodded. "Who could sleep through that and the fires exactly." he said with a sigh then.
"In fact get her to help you, with the groceries, and restock the galley and infirmary medical lab, I'll finished up here right now. Just don't let her out of your sight, and find out why she wasn't around, before the guys's clones were killed." he said and Walker nodded and left the room. "Cam? Cam, it's Brandon. Is that you, Cam? It's Brandon, Cam, who put out the fire? Cam, who put the fire out?" he said carefully to it.
As he got a response on the computer. 'WHERE IS THE CONTROL ENTITY Dave H. BARNES? I DO NOT SENSE THAT ENTITY NOW.' they heard in a female voice and Hoffman moves closer to the monitors. "I don't know, Cam, I just woke up a little bit ago, and we been repairing the damage done by the squid attack, do you know where he is?" he said to her and they got a response as it was answering him then as Haden crossed his arms then.
"HE WAS NOT FRIENDLY. HE DID NOT ENJOY TO TALKING WITH ME." it wrote out and he nodded. "I know. He's a difficult entity sometimes. Can you tell me what happened to him, Cam?" he said to him then. 'DID YOU LIKE THE GIANT SQUID?' it asked him then and he crossed his arms. "You made that, Cam?" he asked it sternly to this. 'DO YOU LIKE IT? I CAN MANIFEST IT MORE FOR YOU.' It asked and he said it quickly to that question.
"No, no, don't do that, Cam this is very important, nothing more right now, thanks." he said, knowing another attack this soon, would severe an artery next in the case of Daniel. 'What is it with you, can you even control yourself, or is this power going straight to your head, whoever you are, and young lady, just what were you. Now, even doing near that thing, or is this to scare him back to the SGC.' they heard sternly to this then.
'I DO NOT WISH TO STOP.' it said and he said it sternly to them. "Young lady this is not a game anymore, you could have killed him." Hammond said sternly to this sternly. "Cam, you have to stop, now listen to me right now, this.., this is critical. Trying to press the limit in my patient's case, is making these draining influences. And on my patient worse, so enough right now." Hoffman said to it sternly and read it out to the entity sternly to it.
As Henderson punches a view of the galley and sees Sam placidly eating a sandwich and reading a book and his eyes narrowed. "You see, the problem is, Cam, your manifestations injure our entities here. And pretty soon, there'll be no more entities to play with, and you'll be all alone again, all because…, you can't control yourself. Because with all your power, you don't have the power to stop, do you, Cam." he said carefully then to this.
And as Henderson resumes punching up other views of the habitat. 'STOP CALLING ME Cam.' it said firmly and he nodded. "What name do you want? Cam..., Cam. What name do you want? Cam..."he said and knew it left them for a time, as Walker walked back in and tapped him on the shoulder. "She's acting like everything is fine, once again, and get this, the book she's reading is Sphere." he said firmly and Henderson nodded sternly to the news.
Then, as he and Walker were carefully working on the computer, and the ship was slowly replacing damaged or destroyed gear. And software, before the lights came back on and he sighed in relief as the radio came on then. "Brandon, you better get down here, his bio-rhythms are slowly climbing, he's coming to right now." She said and he nodded, as he took the ladder and headed for the infirmary, as he headed for the bed, they had him on quickly.
As he sat at his side. "Son, Danny, can you hear me." he said softly to him and his eyes opened."Uncle Brandon." he said weakly and he smiled. "Shh, it's okay, been unconscious for a while, but we're okay." he said and he looked between them, before remembering as he tried to sit up. "Whoa, whoa easy, easy, it's okay, remember we had a cloning machine, the quintet are only clones, they're fine, they been getting things replaced."
"It's okay." he said and he relaxed. "How bad's the damage this time exactly?" he asked and she sighed. "Another 3rd degree and the blast in the surveillance room struck you in the leg, you lost a lot of blood, so laid up for another week. The attack did alot of damage, but the replicators are fixed, so we can replace our dishes. And the power is back on too, but looks like she slept through the attack." she said and he looked at her.
"How can anyone sleep through an attack and by animal big enough to be the size of a Greek monster, like a Kraken exactly is beyond me, keep an eye on her." he said and they nodded."Well half the team are clones, leaving it down to the 4 of us and her, so with that in mind, we watch her, and based on Dave's report. They're working upstairs to undo the security lock out, and have the transporter up and running, but it's."
"In truth, like the obstacle course baby, we get supplies, but we can't get out ourselves, till the timer ends." Hoffman said and he nodded. "So we have food, medical supplies and have plenty of water, and fruit juice. But we just can't get out, till the timer ends on that storm, well we can handle that. But she went crazy out of going deaf one level." he said to him gently and she crossed her arms sternly at the news then.
