Changes 5--A New Future
Soldiers and nurses of the SGC ran past the infirmary, yelling orders as they headed towards the quarantine room.
Gun shots were heard and Jack's confusion left him, many years of being a comander in the Air force made him react when he heard gun shots ring.
He stood and walked swiftly to the door, following the sounds of screams and shouts on his way.
The SGC was going crazy, everything seemed concentrated on the quarantine. JAck smelled the air, the acrid smell of blood filling his senses. His pace sped up and soon he stopped, staring in horror at the display infront of him.
The door to the quarantine room was open, MAjor Penk lay on the floor, legs and arms spilled carelessly across the floor in a broken postion. Green eyes wide and glassy, mouth open as blood trickled from the corner of full lips now blue. Dead. Major Penk was dead.
Jack glanced around him and noticed the soldiers standing around him, shaking, afraid to enter the quarantine room. He sighed and stepped into the room slowly, staring at his surroundings as he pulled his gun from his holster.
He had taken only a few steps into the room and heard a low hissing sound from the corner. Turning slowly he stared in disbelief at the creature before him.
A human body, the body of a child.The creatures skin was covered with light grey fur and he had the head of a cat.
The being was covered in blood and in his hand was a heart, Penk's heart, still beating slightly as the cat-human took a bite out of it, his fangs glowing in the light. Blood dripped down its chin and it began to purr before moving over to Penk's body and ripping his arm out, biting into the flesh there.
'What is it?' , Jack's thought echoed in his mind silently but was answered.
//It is beautiful, it is our future//, the being inside of his mind answered
Jack cringed at the thought, 'What are you?'
//I am Pat'sk , servant to my godess, Bastet//
JAck gasped slightly and closed his eyes, 'Why are you here? Why me?'
//Whay you// , he chuckled cruelly, //Because you were there, tau'ri! Why am I here? I am here to make an army for my Godess, a new race, and you are going to help me with my mission//
'Like hell'
//So certain? Within a few days I shall have full control over your body. Within a few hours my first son will be born and I will use his body as a host until I can find a new one.//
'Aww...you'd actually like to leave my body'
The creature released another evil laugh with sent shivers down Jack's spine, //Yes, you see after you give birth my child need to eat....You'll do just fine...//, the evil cackle filled his mind and he cringed in fear.
Jack took a step back out of the room, his mouth dry in fear 'This is what's going to happen to me?' he thought. 'No, I wont let it..' He was angry now, his jaw set and he gave the comand, "Shoot the fucker!"
The men around him nodded and lifted their weapons, aiming and then firing. The beast gave out a shrll cry and then fell, convulsing forcefully before falling still.
Everyone was silent for a moment, not a sound was heard, people were afraid to breathe. Jack sighed and then bucked over as a sharp pain hit him. Like a bomb going off in his chest. He screamed and Janet ran to his side.
His eyes glowed yellow momentarily and then it was gone. He pushed Fraizer out of the way and ran down the hall, clutching at his chest in pain.
He ran down the coridoors and then ran into his office, shuting and locking the door behind him.
The pain hit him again and he collasped, his legs giving out and he fell to the floor.
His face hit the floor hard and he rolled over onto his back, curling his legs into his and screaming in pain as frantic knocking was heard on the other side of the door.
Jack's body was covered in a sheen of sweat and he turned onto his side, breathing heavy. His throat contracted and he gagged, coughing onto the floor. He gulped air and then he gagged again. Suddenly his throat began to expand and his mouth opened wide. So wide that his chapped lips split at the sides and blood dripped forth.
He teeth moved and suddenly he was gagging again, and then he was throwing up. He was vomiting but it was different, it was painful all over and it was big. Suddenly his mouth opened further and something wet and fur coated began to descend from his mouth. He gagged once more and the object fell from his lips with a wet smack onto the floor.
Jack's eyes opened through the pain and he looked down at the baby infront of him. It was shifting and making small whimping, mewing sounds. The creature was changing slowly, every second it was visibly growing bigger and stronger and suddenly the light covering over it's eyes disapeared and it peered up at Jack.
Jack gasped. //Beautiful, isnt he? My son. My child. Bastet's army.//
Jack shook his head as the being on the floor cocked its head at him, licking its lips. 'No...'
//Yes. It is time to face your destiny, O'Neill//
'No!', he grabbed his envelope opener from the table and thrust it down, hard into the chest of the creature he had just given birth to, the result of the alien taking his body, the aaffect of Daniel's rape. He placed all of his anger into thethrust and smiled maniacally as the sharp object plunged through the flesh of the new born, the new born that was now the size of a three year old human.
The child screamed and then fell still and in the back of his mind he heard a howl of agony from Pat'sk, the alien that had taken his body as a host.
He looked down at the now dead alien and stood, fixing his clothes and dusting imaginary lint from his shoulder.His eyes were now cold as he shut back all feelings.
He walked to the door and opened it slowly, stunned soldiers stood at the door with guns armed and ready, they put them down as he steped out of his room.
