"Its SG-1 Sir!"

"Oh good, I wasn't expecting them back for another half hour. Open the Iris Sergeant. And tell Colonel O'Neill to report to my office."

General Hammond was now at the head of the stairs leading from the Control Room up to the Briefing Room and his offices and the floors above.

"Sergeant we'd like to take a look at the last hours diagnostics readings if you have a copy."

The Iris bloomed, there a shinning, fresh, pretty blue horizon.

"Bringing a copy up Sir."

Colonel O'Neill* was still chilled out and looking handsome in his suited out exquisite attire when he and Major Carter entered the Beta Site's inner compound.

The first thing Colonel O'Neill* noticed was the shape of Teal'c* rocketing towards the StarGate.

"Err T for Tango, what the hell are you doing? Teal'c* come in buddy, are you reading me?"

"We are no longer maintaining radio silence O'Neill*?"

"Oddish.. ..I'd have to say no choice about that one. À la dérobée Teal'c*, what ya doin'?"

"A moment O'Neill*."

Teal'c* and now Colonel O'Neill* were watching Daniel step into a dynamic new horizon and disappear.

"Daniel Jackson*! Daniel Jackson*!! Are you receiving my hail?"

Daniel* was plastered back against the Control Room wall in the Gate Room, trying to remain cloaked with his arms full of books. He was directly opposite to the StarGate, looking forward to a straight run and exit.

"Sounds fussy Teal'c* but I can hear you. I'm in the Gate Room ready to leave, I'll be back in a.."

"At this very instance Doctor Daniel Jackson of The SGC has stepped into the event Horizon and will now be in a demolecularised state traversing a subspace wormhole connected to Earth at his intrinsic mass's maximum velocity. He will be in The SGC momentarily."

"Oh G.. ..thats what that is, the Gate its.. ..Teal'c* what? Thanks. Hide!!"

Sergeant Davies stood up and brushed together all the files in front of him and began to make his way up the stairs to the General's office.

"Detecting a second incoming signal Sir, very weak. Not a recognised frequency, lost it. Its gone. Must have been a spike. Sergeant Davies Sir, shall I inform the General?"

"No need to disturb him. It's the biannuals and they've been in conference since the General got back from the Beta Site. Diagnostics will have recorded its amplitude. You say the signal was not in the usual frequency range, abrupt and weak, Its probably a radio frequency transmission anomaly, possibly a reflection, but it will still be analysed just the same. Don't worry about it Sergeant."

Teal'c* slowed down to a stop and caught his 'breath'. Major Carter and Colonel O'Neill* joined Teal'c*.

"Teal'c* I never knew you could run that fast."

"Indeed Major Carter. It is a requirement of all Jaffa warriors to endure extensive strength, speed and stamina training so that they may at all times be in readiness for battle."

"Pretty much like our guys hey Teal'c*?"

"I believe not O'Neill*. Warriors of Earth do not have to perform under pain of death if certain time measurements are not achieved for the exercises in which they partake."

"You're damn right."

"Ope. What was you running for Teal'c*?"

"I was endeavouring to speak to Daniel Jackson before he passed into the event horizon. I did not reach him in time."

"Oh I think you did T*."

"Indeed."

"Well we're probably going back soon aren't we Colonel*, Sir we'll be returning to The SGC soon won't we?"

"Yeah that's right. Oh yeah. Yes Carter. Yep."

"Sir?"

"Major Carter are you injured?" Teal'c* was pointing at Major Carter's badly torn khakis.

"Thanks for asking. No Teal'c* its just a scratch."

"I have seen stocks of clothing. They are in the warehouse here waiting to be moved to the stores in the west sector. Just one moment."

Teal'c* took off and went in search of a replacement pair of khakis. He returned holding a pair of working blues.

"These should fit you Major Carter."

"Thanks Teal'c* I won't be long. Oh by the way do you know who's just taken off in the Tel'Tac?"

"I observed the ship taking off but I do not know who is inside."

Major Carter went inside the warehouse and found a place to change. When she returned she spoke to Colonel O'Neill*.

"Sir do you mind if I check in at HQ, see if they've got those samples I asked for?"

"Samples?"

"Yes Sir, I told you. They found.. ..I think when they we're out they found err meteor fragments and we just want to get a look at them, aged them etc. Err maybe trace the source."

"Yeah those damn meteorites can be a pain."

"They can Sir, especially when they're not looking where they're going."

"Sure Carter go ahead."

"Thank you Sir."

He followed her a few paces. "Hey.. ..are we okay?"

"We're fine Sir."

"Just remember what I told you. I'll always appreciate you."

"I'm saying the same to you Jack*, Sir."

"Major."

"Colonel*."

Colonel O'Neill* and Teal'c* escorted Major Carter over to the HQ building. They both remained outside leaving Major Carter to enter the complex alone.
