Here's my first Stagate fanfiction. It is Daniel/Vala so hope you enjoy. Here's the summary.

Just as Vala begins to make a place for herself on Earth someone from Qetesh's past appears, throwing Vala's world into turmoil. Post Unending

Chapter one -Qetesh’s memories

If there was one thing that Vala Mal Doran was good at it was masking her emotions. Slowly over the last months she had lowered her emotional walls but make no mistake Vala made sure that she wasn’t an open book.

Daniel was the one who could read her the best but even he didn’t completely understand what she had been through, some memories that had been brought to prominence after her encounter with Athena a few months ago. Lately it hadn’t been unusual for Vala to wake up with sweat dripping from her body, and not in a good way. Her brief though no less horrifying time as Qetesh was flooding back and it was getting harder every day to hide it from her team mates. Already both Sam and Daniel had inquired after her, which Vala brushed off with a grin and a laugh.

She was twisting and turning in her sleep, unable to fight the onslaught of memories. Hundreds of humans and Jaffa alike bowed down to her in fear. Finally a man whose eyes glowed who truly frightened Vala but whom Qetesh welcomed with a lover’s passion.

His hands were all over her body as Qetesh moaned in pleasure. Vala screamed in terror but she couldn’t control her voice, she couldn’t control anything. Qetesh reached her climax as Vala tried to block out what was happening to her. Before she blacked out she saw a six glowing symbols, a gate address.

Vala jerked awake, her body and sheets dripping with sweat. She was breathing harshly as she tried to calm herself down. She grabbed a notebook and jotted down the six symbols that had been imprinting themselves on her dreams, no her nightmares.

Getting ready for her 0900 briefing took longer than Vala thought as she took a long, hot shower trying to scrub her skin clean. Making sure that she had thrown off the remnants of her nightmare she put a smile on her face as she took a seat at the briefing table next to Daniel.

Sam glanced up at the dark haired alien and gave her a reassuring smile. Vala gave a smile back as she quickly skimmed over the briefing report. To her surprise the planet where they were traveling - P5X 732 - had the same gate symbols that had been imprinting themselves through her sleep.

She frowned but quickly wiped the expression on her face. Daniel glanced up at Vala and smiled at her. Vala smiled back a familiar feeling running through her body. She knew that Daniel believed she could never be serious about a relationship with him but she was ‘biding her time’ as Sam had put it when Vala explained her situation. Vala was grateful for a friend like Sam who had helped her in her transition both on Earth and as a part of SG-1.

Cameron Mitchell surreptitiously glanced between Jackson and Vala, glancing quickly at Teal’c who inwardly was smiling at the two. He could see the sparks flying between the two and though he had no intention of telling them what had happened on Odyssey it hadn’t stopped him entering the betting pool as to when the two would ‘hook up.’

General Landry entering the briefing room and after listening to the report given by both Dr Jackson and Lt Col Carter based on the quick survey of the planet done by SG-6 gave SG-1 the go ahead.

It didn’t take the team long to gear up and prepare to disembark. General Landry and Dr Lam were both there to see the team off as Sam, Cam and Teal’c stepped though the gate, Vala and Daniel following behind them.

The landscape was your typical earth-like landscape, the Stargate situated within an ancient tomb. Hieroglyphics adorned the walls, which Daniel quickly approached Vala following behind him. Cam, Sam and Teal’c all split up to search the doorway in front of and behind the Stargate.

After ten minutes Mitchell finally lost his patience, “What have you got Jackson?”

“It looks to be an ancient Semit text. It describes the history of the Goa’uld who ruled over this planet,” Daniel answered.

“What goa’uld?” Sam asked.

“I’m still working on that,” Daniel answered.

Teal’c however was distracted by how pale Vala had turned. Before he could question her on her sudden change in attitude a noise from one of the doors distracted the team. Sam, Teal’c and Cameron pulled up their P-90s at the intruder while Daniel and Vala kept a hand on theirs. They lit their torches and saw a man standing their, try to block out the shine of the bright torches.

They lowered their guns cautiously at the un-armed man, who looked as though he had accidentally stumbled across the travelers. Daniel approached him and held oit his hand, which the man promptly shook.

“You came through the Chappa-ai?” the man asked with curiosity.

“Yes we did. My name is Daniel Jackson and….” Daniel was cut off when the man was zatted and fell unconscious to the ground.

Daniel, Sam, Teal’c and Cameron turned to look at Vala who was holding the zat in her hand.

“What the hell did you do that for?” Daniel asked, too angry to notice how pale Vala was.

“He was going to hurt us,” Vala said croakily as Sam approached her and pushed down Vala outstretched arm.

“What made you think that?” Sam asked quietly.

“He’s a goa’uld that I knew him from my time as Qetesh. I had heard from a reliable source that he that he escaped being killed during the downfall of the System Lords. From what I understand he has been accepted into the service of Ba’al,” Vala answered calmly though Sam could hear the slight tremor in her voice.

“Alright fair enough so what should we d with him?” Cameron asked.

“Take him to Stargate command. If he works for Ba’al he may have valuable intel on him,” Sam reason while keeping a careful eye on Vala.

Cameron agreed as both he and Teal’c dragged the man back to the Stargate where Daniel had dialed Earth and briefly explained the situation to General Landry. Once they were given clearance to come through they arrived back at Stargate Command, Sam and Vala bringing up the rear.

The man - goa’uld - was taken into custody where Dr Lam quickly confirmed what Vala had told them. SG-1 along with Dr Lam were in the briefing room where they were quickly joined by General Landry.

“Someone want to explain why I have a goa’uld locked up on my base?” Landry asked.

“According to Vala this goa’uld is high up in Ba’al’s service and we believed tat we could extract information from him,” Sam quickly explained.

“How did Miss Mal Doran come across this information?” Landry asked as they all focused their attention on Vala.

“I think we would all like to know that General,” Daniel said as Vala particularly avoided his gaze.

“He was well known to Qetesh,” Vala stated.

“I thought that you didn’t remember anything about your time as host,” Cameron said with a confused look in his eyes.

“I didn’t until my little encounter with Athena,” Vala answered evasively.

“It is possible that the trauma to your mind has caused the block between your memories and you memories as Qetesh’s host to break,” Dr Lam summarised.

“What is the goa’uld’s name?” Sam asked cautiously.

“Resheph,” Vala answered.

Daniel’s eyes widened in shock, though only himself, Teal’c and of course Vala recognized it.

Never heard of him,” Cameron looked confused.

“He is the Semitic god of war and plague, said to be the husband of Qetesh,” Daniel answered quietly, his eyes never leaving Vala’s pale face.

Please review and let me know if you want some Cam/Lam as secondary couple.
