All that you left behind to save the world.

They moved off the traveled path into the dark line of trees toward the castle like building they saw in the fly by. In waiting for the guards to change they sat and watched Jaffa troops come in and out of the main gate. When the guards changed over they slipped in and toward the holding cells. Most of the prisoners where asleep, as they looked around. Jason could feel the desperation in Liz’s breathing the she began to tremble; they looked around for anyone that looked out of place.

-They’re not here.- She said in a strangled sob.

-There are other pins. We’ll keep looking.-

Liz took one last look around before Jason’s hand on her back started her moving toward the door. Something caught her eye, blond hair short. Liz knelt down in front of the bars, and sighed Jason knelt beside her.

-Sam?-

The head moved and Liz saw weary blue yes. She sighed and grabbed the bars.

-Sam?-

-Liz?-

-Yes.-

Sam crawled toward the bars and looked at her carefully.

-How did you?-

-It's what I do.- It didn’t sound they she wanted.

-I’m glad to see you.-

-How’s Teal’c, Daniel and my dad.-

-They’re in other cells near by. Your dad?- Sam frowned.

-Yeah he was with you.- Liz said hopefully.

-No he wasn’t he’s missing?-

-Yes oh god.- they said in unison.

Jason put his hand on both women hands.

-Calm down we’ll find him.-

-Who are you? Who is he?- Sam said to Jason then Liz.

-A friend.-

-A Jaffa?-

-It’s a long story. Okay if Pop isn’t here then that means he was looking for you guys and got into something else.-

-Knowing the Gen.- Sam said.

-Yeah, so first things first get you out then find my dad.-

-Sounds like a good plan to me.- Sam smiled.

-Elizabeth we have to go.- Jason said softly.

Sam looked at the man concern in his eyes. She got the sense he himself didn’t want to leave her in the cage but knew better of it. The way he called Liz’s name she got the sense that this was either Lucky the first love of Liz’s life or Jason the greatest love of her life. Sam was lost, thinking about the love her life, no one knew where he was and that made her heart ache. If Jack was alive, she was sure that this time she’d have to do something about it, and save him.

-Okay, be safe I’ll find you.-

-You always do.-

Jason led a trembling Liz out of the holding chambers and back onto the main road they managed to get to there small home before Liz broke down. Jason held her; she didn’t cry she just trembled as he quietly rocked her back and forth.

-For a long time he was all that I had. Losing him would hurt too many people.-

-You to.-

-Yes maybe me most of all. He cared about me when no one else did. He was so careful, like he didn’t want to hurt me, scared I’d reject him.-

-You didn’t.-

-I couldn’t I had a father that loved me for once. I did everything I could to make him proud I needed his approval as much as he needed mine. Then we let that go and just loved each other.-

-We’ll find him.-

-We have a lot of work to do. I need to make you a passable Jaffa fighter.-

-Later, you need rest they won’t need me tomorrow, I think we should get to know this place.-

-Okay.-

He helped Liz up and the entered the bed chamber. He slid of his tunic and boots and climbed into bed. Then she removes her own tunic, skirt and boots and slid a dull gray shirt over her body. She lay down next to him and he looked over at her in the moons light. Liz turned over and looked at him.

-I’m sorry.-

-About?-

-I wanted to tell you I was alive but the more I thought about Courtney and you, the more bitter and angrier I got. I never thought it would hurt you so much.-

-It did.- He said coldly.

-She blamed me?- Liz asked.

-She’s bitter, she couldn’t live with it Elizabeth.-

-Carly actually told me once if I couldn’t live with your life walk away. I wonder why she didn’t tell Courtney that?-

-She liked Courtney more then you.-

-Yeah and she saw something in you two being together.-

Jason sighed shaking his head.

-What because she wasn’t happy, her happiness is was the size of an inch.-

Liz snorted Jason looked at her.

-Sorry, just wondering how long my happiness was.-

-A good yard at least.- He smiled.

-Hmmm. So much unneeded bullshit in the galaxy how does one live?-

-Carefully.-

He looked over at her she was asleep. He finally closed his eyes. The first sun put a soft yellow light into the windows. He felt her cheek and arm across his chest. The second sun turned the light white in the sky, he felt her watching him. He sighed when he felt her lips on his bare shoulder.

-Good morning.-

-I woke up and saw you I thought I was dreaming.-

-Oh?-

-First real fantasy.-

-Fantasy?-

-Yes, was when you where in my studio. I didn’t think after the rape I could get the graphic.-

Jason groaned.

-Down boy you’ve got a workout this morning.-

-And a lot of recon it’s not going to be easy getting them out.-

-Suddenly feel confident.-

-Don’t get cocky Webber.-

-Now it’s Webber?-

-You don’t like it.-

Liz looked at him.

-When did you stop seeing me as innocent little Elizabeth?-
