Chapter 43
The silence in the room was impressive.
"Excuse me?" Daniel asked perplexed.
"As I said, Sam, Jack and their kids are the Ancients representatives that will be staying on Earth," Abeni said.
This was a topic that they had discused before coming. Jack and Sam had been concerned about the future their children would have on Earth. Even if the Trust had lost almost all their power, their kids would be most certainly not safe. Their DNA would be very special. After all they would be the first Ancients born in MANY years. That meant that they would be in a lot of danger.
Jack was the one that realized how they could guarantee their protection. the Ancients and perhaps the Asgard could give them the security they needed. Jack knew he had to contact Thor as soon as he came back to Earth. The Asgard would be very happy with the news they have. He was very happy, and he couldn't hide it.
"Why?" Ford asked.
Sam was the one to answer that. "Sir, we know that the President will give us his word that nothing will happen to any member of our family, but that sometimes isn't enough."
"And this way, not only the States are responsible for our security, but all the world, not that we can't take care of ourselves" Jack said, "but it's necessary."
"I see," Jumper said, "I will tell the President"
"Thank you, sir."
"Well, people," Hammond said, "why don't we rest for a little and then continue?"
"Good idea, George," Jacob said. "Jack, may I have a word with you?"
Jack looked at him, "Me?" he asked.
"Yes, Jack. Please why don't we go to Sam's lab, of course, if you are not using it, Sammie," he said to his daughter.
"No, dad, go ahead. Use it."
"Thank you, sweetie," he said and kissed her cheek.
"We will be in the commissary," Sam said and left the room.
"Dad?" Jack asked concerned.
"Come on, Jack," was Jacob's only answer, and he left the room.
Jack looked at Abeni. She was still in the room, "Go, Jack. Everything is going to be all right. I will be with Sam when you finish."
"Okay, see you," he said and left.
Sam was trying to decide what she wanted to eat. She was hungry, but she didn't want anything that the Commisary had.
"Sam?" Daniel asked. He was waiting for her to decide.
"I don't know, Daniel, nothing here is what I want."
"What do you want, Sam?" Jonas asked.
"I don't know, Jonas. I'll know what I want when I see it."
Daniel looked around. There was no more food in the commissary. He looked at Jonas next and realized that the young man was noticing the same.
"Colonel Carter," Teal'c said, "don't you want your blue jello?"
Sam thought about it, "I think I will take that piece of cake," Sam said pointing to the chocolate cake that the commissary had always, as it was Jack's favourite, "with vanilla ice cream and my blue jello on it."
"Excuse me?" Daniel said. He was surprised by Sam's selection.
"What?" Sam said, "I'm a pregnant woman. I can eat whatever and whenever I want, and this normal stuff," Sam said taking what the cook gave her.
"Okay, Sam, if you say so."
"Jack," Jacob said, "you know what I want to say?"
"I think I know Jacob," Jack said seriously. It wasn't the time to call him "dad", "but why don't you tell me?"
"If you hurt her, there will be no place in the entire Galaxy for you to hide. Understood?"
"Yes, Jacob. I know, and believe me, I will never hurt her on purpose. I can't give you my word that we will never have a fight, because you know that having some fights is good. It makes the couple stronger, but I will never hurt her if I can help it."
"I know, Jack. I know you love my daughter and that her happiness is more important to you than whatever happens to you, but it's something I have to say. She is my only daughter, my little girl."
"I know, Jacob," Jack said hoping the conversation was over so he could return to his family.
"You will know what I feel when you have a daughter."
Jack grinned like a fool. He really wanted a little girl that look just like his Carter.
"You won't like any of the men that put their eyes on her," Jacob continued, not seeing how Jack's expression was changing, "They won't be good enough for her."
"Well, of course they won't," Jack said suddenly, and Jacob looked at him surprise, "I will kill any man that approaches her. I know what men have on their minds. They have only one thing, Jacob, and I won't let THAT happen," Jack finished and left the room. He was going to have a very serious conversation with Sam's belly.
"Jack!" Jacob called and then started laughing. The young man was very funny.
- You did that on purpose.
- Selmak, don't start.
- Jack is a good man.
- He is, but she is my only daughter.
- He is good for her, you know that. He is the best man she could have chosen.
- I know, but as I say, she is my only daughter and --
- Why did you tell him all that?
- For him to know what to expect when his daughter grows up.
- You don't know if they would have a daughter.
- I'm sure they will have at least a boy and a girl, Selmak.
- Why?
- The Ancients need them. You always need a male and a female.
- That's right. We will have at least two new grandchildren
- Oh no, Selmak, I believe that they will have a lot of kids. Jack loves children.
