different Point of view Chapter three
Jack looked at the man opposite him. He was his exact double. Right down to the brown-grey hair and scar above the left eye.
"Okay...This looks...weird?" Jack stated.
Sam, Daniel and Teal'c move to stand beside him, and at the exact same time, their counterparts stepped forward.
"Right...Who exactly are you?" said Jack's doppelganger.
"You first." Said Jack, raising an eyebrow from the alternate Carter. "No really, I insist."
"Okay...I'm Richard Dean Anderson. This is Amanda Tapping, Michael Shanks and Teryl Rothery. Now...Who are you people?"
"Uh,...I'm Colonel Johnathan 'Jack' O'Neill, two ll's from the US Air Force. This is Major Samantha Carter US Air Force, Dr Daniel Jackson - Archaeologist geek extraordinaire and Murray...yeah...Murray."
"No. Really...Who are you?" Richard Enquired.
"I just told you!" Jack whined.
"Look. I play Jack O'Neill on TV. Amanda Plays Sam Carter, Michael plays Daniel and Teryl played Doc Frasier. These are 'fictional' characters!"
"Hey hey! Look...uh...Richard...I'm real okay. Real!"
Richard paced the carpet of the prop room. He looked briefly at his co- stars and briefly at the shell-shocked fans, before setting his eyes on Jack. He then started to pace again.
"Right...Okay...First I'm going to call security, then I'm calling our Air Force technical advisor to see if you are actually Air Force."
Richard stopped pacing and once again turned to face Jack.
"Another thing, its Rick."
"Rick...uh...what?"
"Rick...not Richard."
"Oh right."
Rick, Amanda, Michael, Daniel, Sam, Murray and Jack turned and walked out of the room. Jack held back and stared quizzically at Teryl.
"Uh...you're supposed to be dead."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rick glared at Jack. He was confused.
How can they be real people? He thought. How can that mirror be real? It's made of polystyrene!
"So...you're really Jack O'Neill?"
"Yeah."
"How d'you get here?"
"Carter." He said, indicating Sam. "Care to explain."
Sam stood up, readying herself to give a speech on SG1's current predicament, when it dawned on her they couldn't say a thing.
"Sir...We can't tell them anything. They're civilians."
"Sweet."
"You can tell us. We can keep our mouths shut!" said Amanda. When she realised that no one was going to oblige her, she added, "Aw come on. I have to know or it'll bug me all day!"
"Sorry Amanda. No can do." Replied Daniel.
"Damn!"
There was a knock at the door, and it opened, revealing Teryl.
"I spoke to the Air Force consultant and he's put me through to an Admiral Lloyd."
"Admiral? This can't be good! I knew there'd be complications."
"What's wrong with 'Admiral'." said Daniel.
"General - Air Force, Admiral - Navy."
"Oh!"
Jack turned to Teryl and held out his hand. As she gave him the phone, he mouthed "Thank you" to her.
"Admiral. This is Colonel Jack O'Neill of the SGC. What do you mean 'what's the SGC'...It's Stargate Command...A Stargate? Its' a big old round thing that makes wormholes...to other planets? Yes to other planets."
Jack's face reddened when he realised that he'd just revealed the world's biggest secret to four actors.
"Oh...Yours is called the Star Portal...based at the SPC? Okay...we've to come to your base...the actors as well...and the mirror? You'll send an escort? Okay...Thank you sir."
Pressing the end call button, he handed the phone back to Teryl and began pacing the small room they were in.
"Okay campers. Here's the deal. We are all going to be escorted the Cheyenne Mountain, to the SPC - Star Portal Command - for a briefing and debriefing."
"Sir. Our counterparts aren't military." Sam pointed out.
"Yeah...uh...the briefing's for them...We need to find out more about this reality and then go back home."
"I'll need some help there sir. We need Naquadah and Naquadria reactors to get the Var'tesh working again." Said Sam, indicating the device in her hands,
"We'll be working their main team - SP1 - Code name - X-Treme team."
"Wait, wait, wait a minute!" shouted Rick.
Jack, Sam, Daniel, Teal'c, Amanda, Michael and Teryl turned to face him.
"The Stargate's real?"
"Yes...Anderson...The Stargate is real."
The four actors gaped open-jawed at Teal'c.
"You're an alien then?" Gasped Amanda.
"I am a Jaffa."
"Wow. Do you guys know a little grey dude called Thor?"
"Yeah sure." Sighed Rick.
"I knew Roswell was a cover up!" Shouted Amanda triumphantly
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Robert's head was spinning. His favourite TV characters had burst out a polystyrene mirror at the convention, thereby rewriting the laws of space and time as he knew them. To make his day complete, his favourite actors (who happen to portray his favourite characters) arrived on the scene.
Boy...This is so gonna make a good fanfiction
The whole scenario wouldn't be good for the convention however. Teryl had informed him that the cast had to go to Colorado, and subsequently a lot of the fans had left, no longer guaranteed an autograph. The were waiting for Chris Judge to appear, before heading off to a military base
Hey...Maybe the Stargate's real! No... that's just crazy. Ah...if only. I'd better tell my boss anyway...just to be on the safe side
Robert was shaken from his chain of thoughts by the sight of Jack, Sam, Daniel, Teal'c, Rick, Amanda, Michael and Teryl being led out of a small room by four armed marines.
"Hey!" Shouted Rick. "Guys...Marines! By all means lead our counterparts out at gunpoint. I mean they could be a security risk, but what have we done wrong?"
"Mr Anderson. I'm just doing my job." Exclaimed one of the marines.
"Yeah...And he's just saying..."
Jack's sentence was interrupted by the sight of 'Teal'c' coming through the door. He was wearing an 'O'Neill' brand hat and no make-up.
"Chris! It's about time. Were taking a little trip to Colorado! Care to join us?" Shouted Rick.
Chris gaped at the sight of his alien counterpart. He then regained his composure, but began blushing, much to everyone's surprise. Even more surprisingly, Jack was the first to catch on to one fact.
"Hey..." he said indicating Chris.
"Uh...The name's Chris."
"Chris...right. How can Teal'c here have a human counterpart on Earth?"
The other twelve people in the room, namely the four marines, the other four actors, the other three the SG1 teammembers and Robert the Steward caught on to Jack's chain of thoughts. The all turned to stare accusingly at Chris.
"I can explain...honest."
With that, one of the marines stepped up to the now positively terrified Chris, who then uttered the immortal words.
"Oh for crying out loud!"
