Guess what I have spent the last 16 hrs watching? If you said SG-1, you'd be wrong. JUST KIDDING! ha ha ha! Ok, it wasn't that funny. Anyway, I am running on reserve energy right now. I haven't slept in over 20 hrs. I went to this Bethlehem christmas re-enactment thing last night and when I came home Lucy and I started watching SG-1. We decided to watch all the eps. over again (except the ones we really don't like, which are very few) starting from seas 1 because we have never watched them in order. We watched say seas 3, then 4, then 1, etc. so we wanted to do this. After 1 day we are 1 ep. away from the end of seas 1.

I don't even want to do anything except talk, watch, read, eat, sleep, and dream SG-1. I am officially, that's OFFICIALLY addicted! I read or heard somewhere (I can't remember where, but it was from a real doctor) that anything can potentially be addicting. Something that has never been known to be addictive to anyone could still be addictive to someone. It doesn't have to be a drug, or something that is in the body of course. People can be addicted to gambling, shopping, eating certain foods, etc. and of course having to watch a certain show fits w/ that description. The addiction is of course mental, not physical, but if I go for too long w/ out watching SG-1 I seriously get very irritable and stressed out.

Lucy is in the br right now. I really can't wait till she gets out so we can watch more of the show.

I wrote some more of my story. Here again is what I have so far:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Daniel, Sam, Jack and Teal'c stepped through the Stargate. It had taken many years and countless casualties, but Apophis was finally dead. One year later, through the information provided to them by spy Tok'ra (who had infiltrated Goa'uld bases), the SG-1 team had discovered the whereabouts of Daniel's wife Sha're. She was of course now the host of the Goa'uld Amonet, but Daniel felt confident that he could save her if he could just find her and bring her to the Tok'ra. The latter had discovered a way to remove Goa'uld symbiotes without killing the host. So they had come to Salmaya, the place where Sha're was said to have fled when Apophis never came back to Chulak. They were to meet the Tok'ra Alana and human Genna (Alana's host) whom they had met on one of their missions and who had given them the most information on the location of Sha're.

"Hello Dr. Jackson, Major Carter, Col. O'neill, Teal'c". Genna nodded her head toward each member of SG-1 as she said their name. "It is good to see you again. I hope that all will run as smoothly as possible".

"I hope so too" said Daniel, who had the most reason to want this, so of course spoke up first. "And it is also good to see you".

"Ok, everybody's glad to see everybody, let's get to the mission shall we?" Jack's familiar sarcastic yet commanding voice drew the attention of the others and Alana/Genna motioned them to follow her into some nearby woods. Genna waited till everyone was near her then her eyes suddenly glowed a bright white and Alana came forth.

"As you know, Sha're is not alone. A small band of Goa'uld are attempting to rise in power. They do not have a leader as of yet, but their strength is not to be underestimated."

"Indeed. All Goa'uld possess great power, whether system lords or not", confirmed Teal'c.

"Thanks for the re-assurance there Teal'c" Jack said with his usual uncertain smirk. Teal'c just looked at him, eyebrow raised.

Alana began to speak again. "There is a base set up five miles from here. It is guarded by a large number of slave Jaffa who were taken by the Goa'uld when they came to this planet".

"Whoa, wait a minute" said Sam, speaking for the (uncharacteristically) first time since SG-1 had landed on Salmaya. "I don't know why I didn't think to ask this before, but why are these Goa'uld working together? Goa'uld aren't exactly trusting, and they don't usually enjoy sharing power."

"These Goa'uld", Alana began, "are apparently under the influence of some sort of device which is causing them to want to work together, although they are still arguing over who will be in command. I have not seen anything like it before, and I don't know where the device that is causing the behavior is located or why it is being used."

"I think the important thing is to just worry about how to get in there and save Sha're. I don't care how many Goa'uld I have to deal with."

"Daniel Jackson, have you not wondered still about Amonet noticing you when Apophis came for her on Abydos?"

"Yes Teal'c, of course I have. But that was a few years ago, and I don't know what to think anymore. I know she saw us, but did Sha're actually take over and prevent our capture or did Amonet show some sort of compassion? Is that even possible? If so, why didn't she attempt to get help from a Tok'ra or non Goa'uld or even try to escape to Abydos or Earth after Apophis died?"

"I'm afraid I cannot answer these questions", remarked Alana. "Her actions may be an effect of the device I mentioned earlier or it may be something else, I do not know. I do, however, know that when you see her you will most likely find out."

"Ok, so let's go." Daniel said, a bit eagerly. "What's the plan?"

Genna spoke again. "As Alana said, there are many Jaffa guarding the base, however, although there is no back entrance there are only two Jaffa guarding the front so getting in at least should not be difficult. It would be wise to split up and enter the complex two or three at a time..."

She was about to continue when a twig was heard snapping in the distance. Genna fell silent and looked toward the noise, along with Jack who had also heard.

"Everyone stay here" Jack said and proceeded to walk towards the noise which seemed to be coming from behind some trees a few feet away. He crept slowly so whoever (or whatever) it was would not hear. He spotted what looked like a human and walked about 10 ft to the side of this person (still staying on the opposite side of the trees) so he could surprise them. He spread a few branches apart, carefully took out and turned on his Zat gun, and jumped towards the person. "Don't move!" He said. He saw a girl, around 20, dark hair and eyes, leap in the air.

"Please d..d..don't hurt me! I'm not an enemy."

"Well I really don't know that do I? I'll have to find out a little more about you to be the judge of that. I think you should come to this little party we're having." With that, Jack took the girl's hand and brought her over to the group a few feet away. They (the group) had heard everything so far.

Once in the company of the others, Jack spoke again. "I'm Col. Jack O'neill and these are my fellow travelers; Major Samantha Carter, Dr. Daniel Jackson and Teal'c." The girl looked at Teal'c curiously; she recognized the symbol on his head, but unlike most people she didn't say anything, knowing that if he was with them he obviously didn't support the Goa'uld.

"And I am Alana of the Tok'ra. My host is Genna." Jack was glad Alana spoke up. He wasn't sure if she wanted her identity revealed to this girl so he didn't want to introduce Alana/Genna himself.

"Ok" said Jack, "If you would please explain yourself."

"My name is Alonway", she began. "I am a priestess of the Rayshi. My people, like you, are working to defeat the Goa'uld. We have created a device which we feel may lead to the loss of control, and eventual breakdown of the Goa'uld empire. We call this device Taoshen'i which, in my tongue, means forgiver. We are a peaceful people. We tried to think of a way to bring down the Goa'uld without destroying them, so that the hosts may be spared. Taoshen'i works with the sarcophagus. When a Goa'uld uses the sarcophagus it (the Taoshen'i) sends a signal which interrupts the sarcophagi's normal function. It will still prolong their life, but instead of making them more and more evil, it slowly makes them less evil and that Goa'uld will start to want to work with and help other Goa'ulds, and not simply for their own gain."

"Ok, maybe I'm missing something", remarked Jack, "but isn't a bunch of Goa'uld working together a bad thing?"

"Under normal circumstances, yes. But we had hoped that the Taoshen'i would make all Goa'uld good, much like the Tok'ra, and therefore all of them working together would eventually not be a problem."

"Why do you say 'had hoped'?" asked Daniel.

"Unfortunately we have found that although the Taoshen'i will ultimately reverse the affects of the sarcophagi, it can not turn a Goa'uld good. If they were evil to begin with, they will remain evil. We have also discovered that it does not seem to work with system lords. They are apparently either too powerful, or have spent so much time in the sarcophagi that the affects can not be reversed. The only good thing about Goa'uld working together at this point, is that we are able to control exactly which Goa'uld we want to affect so that we know which ones will work together. This way, we can find out more easily where their operations are taking place and we have a better idea of how many Goa'uld are present within a facility. Strangely, they also seem to be drawn to the device, which may explain why a fair number of Goa'uld have ultimately ended up on this planet. Although we wanted to prevent using weapons, it may be inevitable and this allows us to gather Goa'ulds together and easily wipe them out. Without the empowering affects of the sarcophagi, they are not as hard to defeat."

"If you heard any of our conversation, you know there is one who we don't want to defeat" stated Sam. "We want to save her."

"Yes I know. I heard most of your conversation and I will help you to find her and bring her back."

Genna spoke again. "What of the Tok'ra who have infiltrated the base as spies and are posing as Goa'uld?"

"They are not in danger. We are aware of the Tok'ra, and we know which Goa'uld use a sarcophagus. Although we did not know for sure whether the Tok'ra were Goa'uld who had not used a sarcophagus, I assure you, we would have discovered who was a spy before we destroyed the base."

Daniel was still unsure of things. "If your people wanted to destroy the base, why are they not here? And why were you spying on us?"

"I apologize for not doing a better job of explaining things. We planned an attack and were going to invade the base tomorrow night. I was going to check on the base to assess the level of security when I heard voices coming from the trees. I went to investigate, but I stayed hidden, not knowing if you were friend or foe and that is when you found me."

"If you want to help us, we appreciate it" stated Jack. "but if you are trying to trick us or fool us in any way, we will find out and we will get angry and you won't like us when we're angry." Sam grinned slightly at the Hulk reference.

"I understand. It may not mean much until I prove myself, but I assure you my intentions are to help you find who you came for and to defeat the remaining Goa'uld."

"I believe that this discussion is no longer necessary and we should proceed with the task at hand." remarked Teal'c.

"Yes." Alana said. "All of you know my people so please look before you kill."

"Check", noted Jack. "Carter, Teal'c, you're with me. Alonway and Daniel, you're with Alana/Genna. Ok here's the plan: My group will go first. We will take out the guards and enter the base, watching out for any Jaffa or Goa'uld close to the entrance. five minutes after we enter, Alana's group will go. My group will search rooms towards the front of the base and Alana's group will search rooms toward the back (Daniel was relieved to hear this. He thought Sha're would probably be in a back room, but he didn't want to have to argue with Jack if Jack said Alana's group was to check the front rooms.), all the while both groups will keep a distance from each other so we are less likely to get caught. Does everyone understand the plan?"

Everyone nodded their heads and Alonway said "toway", which Jack decided was a yes.

While Alana/Genna, Daniel and Alonway stayed behind under the protection of the trees, Jack, Teal'c and Sam walked quietly towards the right side of the base, weapons drawn. Jack pointed silently for Teal'c and Sam to sneak up together, Sam behind Teal'c. They got the message. Teal'c moved up towards the entrance. Hiding behind the wall of the base, he reached over and shot the nearest Jaffa guard with his staff weapon. Sam, just behind Teal'c, quickly shot the guard on the opposite side.

"I have a feeling that was another 'too easy moment'." whispered Sam.

Jack went in front of Sam and slowly opened the nearest of the two doors leading to the inside of the base, again with he and his group ready to fire their weapons when needed. It didn't take long. Before Jack could even open the door all the way, a zat was fired toward them. Jack closed the door and pointed for Teal'c and Sam to hide behind the other door. Jack opened the door again, but as he did he hid most of his body behind the door he had opened and quickly fired two shots towards where he estimated the Jaffa to be. Luckily, he was right and he saw the Jaffa fall. After shooting one more guard and Teal'c shooting two, they were able to get into the base. They looked around to get their bearings. The base, despite outward appearances, was quite large. There were a great number of single doors running along the side of the base, and another set of double doors at the end of a long, twisty hallway. The look was similar to that of a Goa'uld mothership, which didn't surprise anyone in the least. Jack signaled Teal'c and Sam to start searching rooms, then looked at his watch. It was time for Alana's group to get under way.

As Jack's group had taken out the entrance guards, it was easy for Alana's group to simply walk right through the door. Alana stopped at the door and told Alonway to stay behind and keep watch. Alonway went to protest, but realized this was best; five people in the base should be more than enough, especially with the head start of the other group, and a look out could stop any Jaffa or Goa'uld who had been away from coming back to the base and executing a surprise attack. As Daniel and Alonway/Genna entered, the sounds of numerous fights all around them became apparent. With her distinctly good hearing, Alana could tell that Teal'c and Sam were in these rooms, but Jack was in another hall. She told Daniel to go through the double doors at the end of the hallway and check along the corridors.

"Take care of any Jaffa you may find and if you see Jack, make sure he's ok. I will continue and search the remaining rooms." Daniel nodded in understanding.

Teal'c and Sam sounded like they were handling things, so Alana/Genna continued through the hall behind Daniel; he had already run into one Jaffa and one Goa'uld (curiously the first one encountered) who had come out of one of the unexplored rooms. Alana/Genna and Daniel met up and continued down the hall.

"Do you want me to go ahead and search the far rooms?" asked Daniel, desperate to find Sha're himself, alone. He knew it was what he had to do.

"Yes, that is fine" said Alana. "I will continue to search these closer rooms. As Alana/Genna and Daniel went their separate ways, a noise was heard coming from the third room on the left, closest to Alana/Genna. It sounded like Jack and he seemed to be in trouble.

Daniel said "We have to go in there!"

"No, you go ahead. I will help Jack. We can't risk letting any Goa'uld escape." With that, Genna burst open the door to discover Jack in a brutal fight with a Jaffa. Somehow, both their weapons had been disarmed, and the Jaffa had Jack pinned against the wall closest to the door, his arm against Jack's throat.

"Ahhgod, help!" yelled Jack as he spotted Genna. She quickly fired her zat at the Jaffa and with a jerk he let go of Jack and fell against the floor.

"Thanks, great timing" remarked Jack.

"You are welcome" said Genna. Are you alright?"

"Oh fine."

"Good, but we still have a lot to do."

"Yes, I never had a doubt. Well, so much for keeping a distance from eachother."

With that, the new duo of Jack and Alana/Genna now started working there way towards the end of the base. Daniel was far ahead of them, and was only three doors away from the last room on the base.

Meanwhile, Teal'c and Sam had cleared the rooms near the front and met up in the hall.

"Teal'c, have you noticed something?"

"We have not yet encountered any Goa'uld"

"Yes, it seems rather strange considering this base is supposed to hold a fairly large group of them. where are they?"

"I believe it would be wise to keep our guard up major Carter."

"I always do."

They continued through to the second hall, about five minutes behind Jack and Alana/Genna.

Outside, it was soon becoming apparent why no one, besides Daniel, had encountered any Goa'uld. Alonway looked up at the hill that overlooked the base and a chill went down her spine. A group of about 25 Goa'uld was coming towards her. They didn't appear to have seen her so she quickly ducked inside the base, desperate to warn the others. She ran through the first hall and saw Teal'c and Sam walking down the next hall. As they started to round the first corridor, she simply yelled "Hey!" and Teal'c and Sam quickly turned around to see what was going on.

"What is it?" started Sam.

"Goa'uld are coming this way... twenty or twenty five of them, coming to the base!"

"We must warn the others" said Teal�c.

With that, they all headed down the hallway, looking for the rest of their group.

Meanwhile, Daniel had come to the final door. He looked behind him, no one in sight. He thought it strange, no sounds of voices even, as if he were the only one in the base. He walked up to the door and slowly opened it...

chapter 2

Teal'c stayed to watch the door as Alonway and Sam went to find Alana/Genna, Jack and Daniel. They knew they had to hurry, even Teal'c was not a match for that many Goa'uld. They caught up with Jack and Alana/Genna shortly.

"Alonway says there are about twenty five Goa'uld coming over the hill toward the base. Teal'c is watching the door, but if they are that close, I don�t know what we can do."

Jack thought for a moment. "Ok, trying to fight them straight on would just be stupid. We'll have to hide and try to ambush them. Carter, you go get Teal'c and tell him the plan. We'll all hide in separate rooms. When we hear the Goa'uld coming, we'll try to pick as many off as we can, then we can all come out and attack the smaller number. Now let's move!" He paused a moment once again. "Wait a minute, where�s Daniel?"

Sam had already gone to get Teal'c, leaving Jack, Alana/Genna and Alonway to simply look at each other, none of them sure of where the missing member of their group could be.

Daniel opened the door and stepped in to the room. There was nothing there, no Amonet, no devices of any kind, just four gray walls and a hard white floor. 'Well, that was a little anti-climatic' thought Daniel, as he crossed towards the far wall, just to see if there was anything of significance written there. No sooner had he thought this when, as he was standing in the center of the room, a ring transport suddenly came down and swooped him up, transporting him to some unknown location.

Sam came back with Teal'c. They all hid in rooms throughout the base, except Jack. He was going to find Daniel. He would hide if necessary, but when the coast was clear, he'd start his search again. approximately five minutes after every one was hidden, the Goa'uld started coming through the door. they paused at the entrance, noticing the Jaffa on the ground. Two, who seemed to have taken on leadership rolls, shouted something in Goa'uld to several of the others and they quickly left, obviously having been told to search the area.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ok, that's it. I'm really liking how it's going. I love writing fan fics, even though it always takes me a while to finish stories. Oh well.

I'm tired so I guess that's all for now. Bye!
