The Vaticinators
Written by Nessessitee Part 4 (approx 14 pages long)
Jack didn't think anything could turn him on more than seeing Daniel in that leather outfit, but he soon found that he had discovered something else that could. Daniel out of that little leather outfit.
He rubbed his face all over the younger man's soft stomach while Daniel tried not to cry out too loudly in case any of the others should hear.
Squirming his body up the length of Daniel's, Jack laid over him again, their lips meeting in another heated kiss. Somehow Daniel had managed to undress Jack but he couldn't remember when - but he was sure that it was around the time he'd peeled the tight pants off Daniel.
Pushing on his shoulders gently, Daniel laid Jack on his back now as he knelt over him. His finger trailed down the older man's furry chest, down his smooth abdomen then around his navel to the trail of hair that led to Jack's pubic area. He closed his eyes slowly as his hand touched Jack's engorged penis, and Jack let out a soft moan at the touch also. Daniel smiled and looked down at him. Jack's eyes opened slowly and looked up at the face of the young lover.
"Danny, don't tease.." he sighed softly. Daniel licked his lips seductively now then smiled shyly as his hand trailed over the soft abdomen again, following the deep lines across the stomach, dancing lightly over the freckles on the skin. Jack gently bucked against Daniel's hip and the younger man laughed teasingly.
"Come here!" Jack ran his hands around Daniel's back, pulling the younger man down on top of him. Daniel let out an unexpected yelp as Jack pulled him down, but the sound was quickly swallowed by Jack's engulfing kiss.

Teal'c rolled over when he heard Daniel's cry, then he listened and, happy to not hear anything further, he settled down again. He lifted his eyes and looked over at Sam, who was looking at him. Neither said a word and Teal'c looked away as he tried to go back to sleep.
*****
Jack's hands cradled up the side of Daniel's face as they laid, Daniel on top, kissing passionately. The younger man's leg was bent slightly and wedged between Jack's thigh as he gently thrusted against the Colonel while their tongues jousted gently. Slowly, Jack's hands slid down the muscular back, down the soft curve then up over the rounded butt, where he gently squeezed the soft skin. Daniel thrusted hard against Jack now, moaning loudly as he did. He melted against the older man as he felt Jack's hands slip towards his cleft slowly, finding their way expertly. Quickly Daniel pushed back off him, kneeling up on the bed. Jack frowned and leant up on his elbows.
"Danny?" he asked huskily.
"Jack.. I'm not... very experienced.." Daniel confessed quietly. Jack reached out and pushed his hair off his face.
"Are you a virgin?" he frowned. Daniel shook his head slightly.
"No, but it's been over 15 years..." he sighed. Jack nodded. "I know you've had a lot..." he could have kicked himself now.
Jack tilted his head. "You know I've had a lot of what?"
Cursing himself silently Daniel shrugged. "A lot of male lovers.." he sighed. Jack sat all the way up now.
"Who told you?" he frowned. Daniel blinked quickly and Jack suddenly knew.
"Did the Seer tell you how often I shit and shave in a week also?" Jack got up off the bed. Daniel felt deflated.
"I didn't ask him," he pleaded earnestly. "He just told me.."
Jack was sitting on Teal'c's bed now, the blanket over his lap as he stared at Daniel.
"If you knew all this about me, why did it take me to get things started?" Jack frowned.
Daniel wet his lips quickly then tilted his head to look at Jack. God, Jack loved that look!
"I wanted you to be ready to tell me. I needed you to tell me.." he said quietly.
Jack frowned. "Why? You enjoy being chased?"
Daniel shook his head. "Normally I'm the chaser Jack, but I figured that this was different. Same sex relationships.. and all. Fraternizing with a fellow officer.. all of that stuff. I needed you to tell me it was going to be okay.." he sighed, "that it was what you wanted..."
Jack got up slowly and went back over to him.
"You were worried I'd reject you?" he cupped Daniel's face in his hands while the younger man nodded. "Oh, god Danny.... " he shook his head and brushed his lips across Daniel's again.
"Jack.." Daniel touched him with trembling hands, " I've loved you for so long and I... " he stopped when Jack pulled back suddenly.
"You love me?"
Daniel nodded, suddenly afraid he'd said the wrong thing. Jack watched the younger man tremble and he lifted his hand up.
"You're trembling," he said. Daniel nodded.
"I don't know why.." he shrugged. Jack crawled into the bed with him and cuddled him tightly.
"You love me?" Jack whispered. Daniel nodded again then started trembling more. Jack pulled back.
"You feeling okay?" he touched his brow. Daniel shook his head as he laid down, Jack lying next to him.
"Danny?" his eyes were full of concern. Daniel touched his hand to Jack's face.
"Make love to me.." he whispered softly. Jack blinked quickly then reached down and kissed him gently.
"Wait here.." he said when he finally pulled back then he got up and went to his back pack. He pulled out a small black zippered notebook and opened it. Four condoms fell into his hand.
"You were a boy scout?" Daniel smiled as Jack crawled back onto the bed.
"No, well yes, I was, but I started carrying these after the Kinthia incident.." he said. Daniel nodded.
"Those little buggers ate through rubber, if you recall.." Daniel said with a smile. Jack smiled.
" I was more thinking of the unsafe sex thing, I might have impregnated her.. or worse, given her an earth disease..."
Daniel frowned. "You got any of those?"
Jack smiled and shook his head. "Not according to Doc Fraiser.. why? Have you?"
"Nope, my tests are clean," he smiled. Jack smiled then bent down and kissed him tenderly as Daniel took one of the plastic packs from Jack's hand and broke the kiss to bite the pack open and spit out the torn bit. He and Jack smiled again then Jack laid on his back while Daniel knelt next to him.
First he touched Jack with his hand, causing the older man to suck in a sharp breath, then he bent down and gently kissed up the side of the erection, making Jack thrust and groan softly, his feet digging into the straw mattress as his groin lifted into the air slightly. Daniel trailed his tongue up the side of the shaft now, enjoying the taste of Jack and feeling the ridges and veins within the shaft with his tongue. His tongue tip rounded the soft pink ridge then he ran the underside of his tongue over the tip causing Jack to reach down and gently hold his head in his hands.
Daniel looked up at Jack, his blue eyes softly squinting in bliss, his cheeks rounded in a gentle smile, his head titled slightly. He lifted one hand and brushed his own fringe off his face and Jack watched as the muscles in his arm bulged at that slight movement and he caught a peak of soft brown hairs under Daniel's arms before the younger man lowered his arm again, this time reaching and gripping Jack in his hand. The body arched and Daniel smiled again, his fingers wriggling to get a firmer hold on the large shaft. He reached down and kissed the tip softly again and Jack groaned gently. Daniel knew he shouldn't, but he couldn't resist. He engulfed Jack in his hot mouth.
"Oh... sweet Jesus..." Jack sighed as he felt the hot, moist mouth around him. Daniel moved his hand to reach down and gently tumble Jack's heavy sac and the older man's thighs immediately parted more. Daniel hoped he was satisfying Jack, it had been a while since he'd had this done on him, and even longer since he'd done it on another, that he'd almost forgotten what it felt like. But he needn't have worried, judging by the groans and thrusts by Jack he was doing it just fine.
When he pulled back his lips were moist and slightly swollen and Jack hadn't seen them ever look so gorgeous. Daniel continued to stroke Jack with his hand as he looked down into his lover's dark eyes. Jack held his hand up and Daniel leant forward to it, nudging his cheek against it slightly.
"Danny..." Jack sighed softly. Daniel looked at him, his blue eyes blinking slowly. "Oh.. god.. come here.." Jack whispered and Daniel stopped the massage and laid next to him, their eyes locked in an intense stare as Jack gently caressed his face.
Slowly, Jack rolled Daniel onto his back as he slipped on top of him, his hand reaching up and grabbing another plastic pack, ripping it open and spitting the edge out. Daniel frowned. Where had his condom gone? Jack smiled, aware of what Daniel was wondering right at that moment. He knelt up and placed the rolled rubber on his tip. Daniel sat up and locked eyes with Jack, his hand coming over the top of the older man's, finally Jack surrendered the condom and Daniel eased it on carefully, ensuring it was properly in place as he stroked Jack fully. He looked up and saw that Jack's head was thrown back slightly. Realising he was finished, Jack lowered his face, their eyes meeting again then both men smiled and pulled into another soft, tender kiss as Jack carefully laid his lover down again. Pulling up out of the kiss, Jack saw the small cup on the shelf above the bed that the seer had placed there for him and, as he reached up, Daniel seized the opportunity to cover his stomach in small kisses while Jack scooped out some of the cool liquid.
Daniel rolled onto his stomach and knelt before Jack while the older man prepped him. He sighed at the soft touch, the gentle probe, the long fingers that slipped cautiously into his body, probing and stretching him carefully. Daniel pushed back against Jack's hand and the older man could resist the temptation no longer. Positioning himself behind Daniel Jack pressed his tip against the warm opening. Daniel looked over his shoulder at Jack and then felt Jack grip his hips firmly as he pushed inside.
Daniel cried out. The feeling had been forgotten over the years, as had the pain that shot through his body right now as Jack gingerly pulsed into him, sinking deeper and deeper into the hot body. Finally in fully, Jack rubbed Daniel's back lovingly as he started to carefully thrust into the raw body. Daniel's back arched, his head flinging back as he knelt up. Jack's hand slipped across his stomach and he reached around and touched Daniel's throat, listening as the younger man groaned softly. Jack nibbled the strong shoulder, biting and sucking on the warm skin as he thrusted deeper and deeper. Then his hand slipped down the body, over the firm stomach and onto the hard erection. Daniel tightened around Jack as the older man started massaging him tantalisingly slowly. Daniel fell onto his elbows as Jack released him and gripped his hips tightly as he trusted harder into him, his passion igniting and his need to fill Daniel overcame him. Daniel groaned and gripped the bedding into his fists as he mumbled and sighed softly, his own body thrusting with Jack's.
"Danny...." Jack whispered and the younger man's body flooded with goose-bumps. Jack leant over him, pressing against his lovers prostrate and causing Daniel to shiver while perspiration formed a sheen over his back. Jack's hands slipped down Daniel's thighs, then made their way back up the insides, cupping around his firm erection again. Daniel inhaled sharply as Jack covered his back in small moist kisses while he massaged the long shaft in his hand.
"Jack..." Daniel said dryly, his voice barely more than a whisper. He knelt up again, tilting his head back, Jack reached around and kissed his cheek then bit his ear softly, his tongue tracing it's contours.
"I love you too, Space Monkey..." Jack whispered. Daniel's hands reached up and around the back of Jack's head then he dropped one hand behind him, reaching around to feel Jack pressed up against his back. He gripped Jack's butt cheek tightly, leaving little red claw marks in the skin, but the sensation only served to excite Jack more, suddenly he trusted harder than he ever had before forcing Daniel forward roughly, falling onto to his elbows again, bracing himself against the bed head while Jack thrusted deeply, his legs slapping into Daniel's thighs, his groin pressing against Daniel as he rammed into his lover almost brutally, but neither men objected. Jack gripped the firm shoulders and squeezed as he started to climax, his own fingers digging into Daniel's soft skin.
"Danny!" He panted breathlessly as he felt the first strong wave of orgasm wring his body. Daniel felt the shudder from the man behind him, his hand reaching around to feel Jack's butt tighten as the older man released his warm liquid into his sheath. Daniel smiled as Jack's skin quivered as he orgasmed and then he felt Jack thrust deeply, milking the last of himself into the condom.
Daniel knelt up allowing Jack to rest against him for a moment, the sweaty bodies slippery against each other. Jack's mouth was open and his lips rested on the soft shoulder before him as he panted to catch his breath. Reaching down, he gripped the condom in his hand as he slowly pulled from Daniel, rolling onto his back as he pulled the sheath from his flaccid erection now. Daniel smiled as he watched Jack tie it off, looking for somewhere to drop the used object. Taking it from him Daniel dropped it to the floor by the bed and Jack frowned.
"We'll get it later," Daniel crawled over Jack, his still firm erection rubbed the older man's stomach playfully as he reached down and kissed Jack softly.
"In the morning.." Jack nodded and bit the full soft lip before him.
"With the others..." Daniel smirked.
"Oh? Others...?" Jack smiled now at that tantalizing promise.
"Well... mine at least.." Daniel bit Jack's lip tenderly then he kissed up his jaw line. Jack gripped his lover's butt, encouraging him to move closer so Daniel obeyed. Jack scooted down the bed to position himself under the kneeling man, his tongue coming out to gently caress the heavy balls. Daniel inhaled deeply as Jack took the heavy sac into his mouth carefully and sucked on it gently while his tongue played with it.
*****
Sam had heard the muffled cries from the nearby hut and her frustration reached boiling point. She tossed back the bedding and headed out of the hut and over to the hot spring that they'd bathed in earlier. She waited on the edge of the water, watching as the light of the three moons glimmered on the surface intermittently as they peeked through the canopy overhead. She sat on the edge of the spring now, her hand idly passing through the warm water then she sighed then looked around, checking that she was alone. Quickly she stripped her outfit off, and dived into the water, resurfacing in the centre of the still pool. She sighed softly, enjoying the feeling of the water lapping at her body, the gentle caress a stark contrast to the tight constraints of the leather outfit she was forced to wear. She dived under the water again, unaware of the eyes on her from the near distant trees. She frolicked in the water, her long legs breaking through the surface as she dived under again, then she would throw herself up out of the water to waist height as she resurfaces, the water streaming off her body in shiny little rivers.
The breathing from the shadows deepened as it watched her in the water.
Sam thought she heard a noise and turned around, suddenly nervous. She listened intently for a few moments then shrugged and continued with her enjoyment of the water.
The figure in the bushes released it's breath, thankful that Sam had not come out to investigate the twig snapping under it's foot as it moved to get a clearer view of her.
Sam swum over to the waterfall, pulling herself up out of the water with her strong arms. She stood under the stream of the water, washing her hair back off her face as she enjoyed the cold water caressing over her warm skin. Her nipples were hard at the sensation of the icy water on her skin, small gooseflesh filled her skin now as she tossed her face under the water.
The figure craned it's neck to look around the tree it was hiding behind when suddenly it felt a hand grip it's shoulder. It turned to look at the dark face of the newcomer, Teal'c. The dark look on the alien's face terrified the young villager who ran off back to his hut. Teal'c looked out over the water and saw Sam in the waterfall. He stepped out of the trees and up to the edge of the water, watching her body shimmer in the moonlight.
"Samantha.." he called softly, trying not to startle her. But Sam jumped at the sound of the voice, lost her footing and fell into the water. Without thinking, Teal'c dived in, fully dressed and with Goa'uld intact, and dragged her back to the surface.
"I am sorry, I did not mean to frighten you," he said, holding her by her tiny waist under the water's surface.
She rubbed the spot on her head that hit the bottom of the pool as she fell in, then looked at him. "What were you doing creeping around here?"
"I was not creeping, I merely wondered where you had gotten to when you did not return to our hut," he said, unaware his fingers were tightening their hold on her waist.
"I couldn't sleep, what with those two at it... " she shrugged, finally finding the small egg shaped bump on her tender scalp. Teal'c nodded.
"I had the same problem," he said. She stopped rubbing her head and smiled at him.
"At least they're having fun, I guess..."
Teal'c blinked slowly. "They were not the only ones. When I came here I discovered a young Native watching your from over there," he pointed over to where he'd discovered the youth. Sam looked over there then back at Teal'c.
"So you weren't in the bushes then?" she frowned. The Jaffa frowned deeply.
"Why would I be in the bushes?"
She gave a slight laugh then nodded, "why indeed.."
Suddenly they both became away of his touch and she put her hands on his soggy wet vest and pushed back. Teal'c then felt the Goa'uld protesting to being under water for so long. He let go of her and left the pool. Sam frowned as she watched him on the shore, carefully pulling the Goa'uld from it's pouch. She watched as he bent over the lifeless white snake-like creature and without thinking, she headed out of the water and knelt next to him as he looked down at the soggy Alien.
"Is it alright?" she frowned as Teal'c's large hand massaged down the length of the slimy white body.
"It dislikes being immersed in water, it cannot breath," he said, then glanced at her kneeling next to him. She looked at him and he slowly lifted his eyes to meet hers.
"I'm sorry," she said. He blinked and clenched his jaw nervously.
"For what?"
"For falling in and making you come in and save me," she shrugged then pointed to the Goa'uld. "It's going to be alright though?"
Teal'c looked at the small creature as he nodded. "I will leave him out for a short while, allow him to dry."
"But you need him, wont you get sick?"
Teal'c shook his head. "I am able to remove him for short periods of time, for such things as bathing..."
Sam looked at the still creature then back at Teal'c. His large hand came up and cradled the side of her face gently as she nudged against it. His fingers gently dug into the back of her head as he pulled her closer to him, their lips meeting only briefly, before he pulled back and looked at her.
"You are incredibly beautiful, Samantha," he sighed softly. She smiled then closed her eyes as he came closer again for another kiss. They parted amidst breathless sighs as they stared into each others eyes.
"Think you can be without him long enough to join me in the water?" she asked softly. Teal'c looked at the Goa'uld then at her, a smile filled his face.
"I am certain of it," he stood and held his hand down to her. She got up and they headed into the water together.
*****
Sam threw herself up out of the water and Teal'c grabbed her around the thighs, burying his face against her soft stomach. She gave a delighted moan as she put her hands on his shoulders, helping to keep herself up out of the water. Teal'c's mouth moved down the stomach to the mound of wet hair then his nose gently nudged at her. Sam let go a soft squeal and flung herself backwards, landing on the surface of the water as Teal'c plunged his tongue deeply inside her. She instinctively wrapped her legs around his shoulders, drawing him closer and deeper with her strong legs.
The water lapped at her body, pooling over her flattened stomach, separating her breast until they looked like two small individual islands surrounded by water. Teal'c's eyes opened to see the sight of her floating before him as he continued to pleasure her with his tongue.
"Holy Hannah, Teal'c.." she whispered softly as she felt herself racing towards the edge of her orgasm. Swiftly he had gripped her waist and pulled her down through the water and impaled her on his long, hard shaft before she even knew what was happening.
Her eyes went wide as she felt him fully impale her, fitting her perfectly, filling her and stretching her more than any previous lover had ever done. She groan lustfully as he started to rock her carefully, aware that he might damage her if he pushed too hard into her. Her wet arms wrapped around his neck, their bodies shimmered in the moonlight. She laughed gutterally and Teal'c smiled.
"What makes you laugh?" he asked.
"You, me, this... all of it... and the moons," she flung her hand above her head, throwing her head back to look at the moons through the heavy canopy over head. Teal'c took the opportunity to kiss and suck on her tender neck. She moaned deeply and lowered her face then they pulled back as she started to tremble with the building orgasm again.
"I've only ever done this sort of thing once before, and it was a full moon that night too," she smiled at the handsome man encircled within her arms.
Teal'c gave a soft sigh as he started to tremble too. Sam smoothed her hand over his head, kissing his cheek, eyes, nose then chin then pulling back. She sucked in a deep breath as he pushed too deeply into her, and he apoligised immediately. She smiled and kissed his full lips gently, enjoying the feeling of his hands gripping her soft thighs tightly, leaving dimples and red marks over her skin. She felt his hand slip between them now and sighed as his thumb gently brushed against her, arousing her more than she thought was possible.
"Holy.. Teal'c.. " she gulped air now as she felt her body start to ripple with the sensation of the orgasm.
"Samantha.. I .. am. sorry..." he said as he thrusted deeply within her, causing her both pleasure and pain then she immediately felt the pressure as he ejaculated deeply within her, filling her completely with his large warm load. Sam gasped then she immediately followed him with her own orgasm, gripping him tightly around the neck as she shuddered from the sensation, enjoying the feeling of his still erect shaft gently pulling in and out of her, milking himself totally of his hot, sticky load. It all added to her sensations and she went screaming over the edge, her whole body shuddering as she gasped for air. Teal'c held her around the waist as she sunk back slowly into the water, sighing and moaning softly as she twitched internally with the afterglow of the orgasm. She floated momentarily in the warm water, safely in his grip on her waist still, before he broke the serenity.
"I am sorry, but I must get my.." he sounded weak and she looked at him.
"Teal'c?"
He pointed to the shore and she swam ahead of him to grab the Goa'uld. He pulled himself weakly from the water and laid on his back as she held the Goa'uld at the edge of the pouch. The alien slipped inside and nestled itself into the warm, moist enclosure once more. Sam looked down the length of the body, sprawled on the shore before her. His dark body glistened in the moonlight as the water slowly evaporated off him in the warm breeze. Her hand looked so pale and small as she glided it up over the warm skin, then she titled her face to look at him. His eyes were closed and she figured he was meditating with the Goa'uld. She got up silently and dressed while he meditated. After a half an hour, she decided to head back to the hut, so she grabbed his blanket from the hut, covered him in it, then headed back to her bed. She was worn out, but hoping to be wrapped within his large arms as she drifted off to sleep. It wasn't the way she'd envisaged their first time ending up, but she also had to be realistic. This might all be nothing more than the atmosphere of this world making them all do and say strange things. She pondered Jack and Daniel and hoped that it wasn't just one of those things that happened on a world only to be forgotten when they got back home.
As she drifted off to sleep she realised that the hut next door was quiet. Perhaps Jack and Daniel had finally finished and were now asleep.
*****
Jack rolled onto his back as the light streamed through the rooftop, hitting him directly in the eye as he tried to sleep. He groaned and covered his face, then he felt something heavy against his arm. He looked down and saw the matted brown hair over his chest. He frowned and looked around himself, the hut was unfamiliar and he sat up with a start. Daniel groaned and flopped onto the hard mattress as Jack sat up.
"Danny..." Jack looked around then back at the man next to him. He frowned. Daniel was naked. He slowly lifted the blanket and realised that he was naked too. A cold shock filled the Colonel.
"Jack.." Daniel pushed up slowly then frowned as he realised he was naked.
"I'm naked?" he looked at Jack. "Why's that?"
Jack's mouth flapped open but no worlds came out as he shook his head. Daniel sat up properly then looked at the man next to him.
"You're naked too.." he said. Jack nodded then shrugged. He could hardly deny it. Daniel moved then winced.
Jack cringed too, as if understanding that feeling perfectly. "You sore.. too?"
Daniel looked up at Jack then screwed his nose up and nodded. Both men groaned deeply as they pushed their hands through their hair.
"What the hell happened..?" Jack frowned while Daniel bit his bottom lip.
*****
Sam groaned as she rolled onto her stomach, her arm falling over a body next to her. She pushed up and looked at the sleeping form of Teal'c. Startled, she pushed up and away from him and he slowly woke up. Looking down at the front of herslef than at him she realised they were both naked.
"Holy Hannah.." she sighed. Teal'c's dark eyes opened slowly.
"Good morning, Samantha.." he smiled gently. She blinked quickly.
"Teal'c, what the hell happened?"
He pushed up then realised they were naked then frowned. "I went to sleep fully dressed, did I not?" he frowned. Sam nodded. She'd taken a dip in the pool then dressed and headed back to the hut.... Hazy images filled her head now.
"You came to the pool last night.." she said, reaching around to grab her clothing and she hurried to put them on. Teal'c diverted his eyes, despite it being obvious what had occurred between them the night before.
"We swam.." he frowned as if trying to dredge up a long forgotten memory.
Sam nodded. "We swam and then your Goa'uld got distressed and you headed out of the water... and then.. "he eyes widened as she looked over at him. He quickly looked at her.
"Capt'n Carter, did we...?"
Sam shook her had as she covered her face with her hands. "Oh.. my...." She sighed before running out of the hut.
Jack and Daniel were already outside, trying to get answers from the Villagers. Their voices were raised and they were clearly agitated.
"Ask to speak to that seer thing.." Jack said impatiently, waving his finger at Daniel now as he squinted behind his dark glasses, trying to block out the bright sunlight. Daniel sighed once more as he pushed his glasses back up his nose again, a fruitless effort as the heat of the moment and the warm sun coated his nose in perspiration and the frames kept slipping, adding to the young man's frustrations.
"Danny, ask if.. "
"I KNOW JACK!" Daniel finally snapped then gave him a quick look before turning to see Sam running towards them.
"Colonel!" she started yelling the minute she saw Jack. Daniel stopped talking to the Villagers as he watched his frazzled friend run over to them.
Jack put his hands out and gripped her by the shoulders. "Calm down, Captain, what's wrong?"
Sam gulped at the air then pointed back to her hut, both men turning to see Teal'c leaving the hut, pulling his vest on, then he headed away towards the water. Both turned back to Sam.
"Sam? What are you telling me?" Jack frowned, considering the state he and Daniel had woken in. She gave him a look that left him with no two qualms about what she was trying to tell him.
"You and Teal'c?" he screwed his nose up. Daniel blinked quickly as he looked over at Jack.
"Well, it's a little more believable than.." he waved his hand between himself and Jack now. The colonel shot him a sharp look then turned back to Sam.
"Did he hurt you?' he asked. She shook her head then shrugged.
"I don't.. I don't remember.." she sighed, her hand coming up to the side of her face. Suddenly a flash of him touching her cheek filled her mind. She jumped at the memory.
"Sam?" Daniel frowned. She blinked and looked at him.
Jack sighed then looked around. "Okay, obviously something happened here last night. We were all either drunk or intoxicated by something..."
Daniel vaguely remembered Jack mentioning a truth serum, but before he could say anything Jack had elbowed him.
"Okay?" The colonel asked. Daniel frowned.
"What?"
"What happened here.. last night. It *stays* here. We don't discuss it and it doesn't go on our reports, do I make myself clear?"
"I think we need to discuss it Jack.." Daniel protested but the steely look in Jack's eyes made him well aware that Jack wasn't going to discuss this with him. What had happened was obviously a big mistake, in the colonel's eyes, and he wasn't about to make things more awkward by recalling the actual event. Finally Daniel gave a feeble nod.
"Good!! Now for Christ's sake, find me someone who knows something about what happened here last night.." Jack snapped at Daniel. The younger man felt suddenly hurt by the raised voice, but he wasn't sure why. Regardlessly, he nodded numbly and headed into the nearby hut, hoping to find the seer.
Teal'c reentered the village and looked around. He saw Sam and Jack talking, the colonel had his hands gripping her upper arms while she stood, nodding at his words. He walked straight up to them and looked down at Sam.
"I wish to speak with you," he demanded.
"Now's not a good time Teal'c," Jack stepped between his officer and the alien. Teal'c tilted his head as he looked at his friend.
"I mean her no harm," he said. Jack shrugged.
"Probably not, but it would seem that we're all acting against our usual manner... I think it's best that you and Captain Carter wait a while before discussing this, perhaps even until we get back home.." he turned to look at Sam, "things might look a little clearer then."
Sam looked at Teal'c and could see in his eyes that he wouldn't hurt her, but she agreed with Jack. She needed to get home and see Janet anyway, because now was not the best time for her to be having unsafe sex. She was already getting flashes of their love making and it filled her with a strange sensation so she knew she needed to get a few things sorted out before confronting the Jaffa with her true feelings.
Daniel had some success in locating the seer, or rather the seer's son, who was also gifted.
"Can you tell me what happened?" Daniel asked. The young man, roughly Daniel's own age, looked at the blue eyed stranger.
"You were all given some fruit, do you recall that?"
Daniel nodded then they both looked up as Jack entered the hut. Daniel patted the earth next to him and Jack sat down.
"We're discussing the fruit.." Daniel filled him in. Jack frowned as he started to recall something about fruit....
"The fruit has differing levels of what you would call truth serum," the green eyed seer explained. Daniel quickly glanced at Jack from the corner of his eye then looked at the seer again.
"Truth serum...?" he mumbled, again vaguely recalling Jack mentioning something about truth serum last night, right before they...
Jack clicked his fingers just as Daniel was about to recall a memory, "you're giving us some.." the colonel nodded, suddenly recalling it. The seer nodded.
"You are correct. That is where my father is at the moment, off overseeing the removal of some fruit for you to take back with you when you leave."
Daniel looked at Jack but as soon as the colonel looked at him the shy man looked away, fully recalling a piece of what went on between them the night before.
"So we were given truth serum, so why do we feel like we've been hit over the head with a heavy mallet?" Jack asked, rubbing the back of his head as he spoke. The seer shrugged.
"Perhaps it is a side effect of the serum," he said. Jack rolled his eyes.
"Maybe the serum doesn't work on us?" Daniel frowned.
The young seer looked between the two men, sensing a huge amount of confusion and regret from both of them. Then he quickly scanned both minds and sensed a deep need from them both for him to tell them that the serum didn't work.
"Perhaps you are correct," he nodded.
Jack looked at him. "Yeah, perhaps it drugged us, so that we didn't know what we were doing? What do you think about that?" he snorted angrily, trying to find some logical explanation that might have been acceptable to Daniel.
The younger man bit his lips together worried by Jack's anger and concerned that he was about to do something rash. The Seer turned as if Daniel had said something aloud and Jack frowned.
"You reading our minds now?" he asked. The Seer shook his head.
"No, we were asked to refrain from it around the visitors, I am sensing a lot of confusion and.. regret.. however.." he said.
"Regret? Oh, ya think?" Jack snapped as he headed off. Daniel frowned as he watched him go then he looked at the young seer again.
"Regret, huh?"
The seer nodded. Daniel pondered that thought as he wandered away, and the seer was saddened that they were inhibited and unable to express their true feelings, despite the obvious truth. He turned to see his father return with some fruit and tree samples and hurried over to him.
After explaining about the confusion, the older Seer had gathered the visitors together.
"We are happy to give you our fruit, however, I am concerned about the reactions you have had. For our people the serum is short lived, wearing off after a brief time, and there are no further effects felt from it. It would seem that the fruit has affected you differently."
Jack scoffed and nodded. "Seems like it," he sighed. Daniel looked over at Sam who was studying the dirt by her feet.
"I am not of their world, why would I be affected in the same way?" Teal'c asked. Sam looked up then met Daniel's gaze.
The seer shrugged. "I am unable to tell you that. Perhaps we survive on the fruit merely because it suits us perfectly.."
"One man's pleasure is another man's poison?" Jack asked.
"Err that's one man's pleasure is another man's pain, Jack," Daniel said.
"I thought it was one man's trash is another man's treasure," Sam suggested.
The colonel stared at them then shrugged. "Whatever," he said. Daniel nodded.
"May we take a few samples with us anyway?" Sam tilted her face to look at the Chief. The older man nodded.
Jack nodded then got to his feet. "Okay troupe, I think it's time we were getting home..."
Daniel went to protest, but knew it was feeble. There might have been other things they could discover, but he realised Jack needed to get his team home, so that they could all try to get over what had happened on this world. They all got to their feet and started gathering their packs up.
"Where are our clothes?" Jack asked.
The Seer shook his head. "The Chief had me destroy them..."
"They are the property of the US Military.."
"Jack," Daniel sighed then patted his arm. "I don't think they care.."
Jack shot his companion a quick look then shrugged. "I needed a new one anyway.." Sam bent her head as she concentrated on packing her pack up again. She looked up when she felt someone staring at her. It was Teal'c. She swallowed then gave him a small smile before looking back down at her work.
They were a sullen party as they headed back to the stargate. Teal'c at the rear, Jack leading with Daniel and Sam in the centre talking quietly together.
Jack stood on the dais and watched as Sam and Teal'c went through. Daniel stepped up to the gate then looked back over his shoulder at the world where his fantasy did come true, if only he could remember it. Then he looked at Jack and the colonel squared his chin before nodding his head towards the gate. Daniel nodded and stepped through.
