Why This Must Be Read: Whether it's playing pool, blowing things up with C4, or figuring out alien technology, Sam Carter is awesome... and Jack knows he can trust her to do it right.
Toss in some teamy goodness and a lot of shooting (in both meanings of the word), and this story becomes a wonderful Sam fic that will leave you cheering!
The colonel slapped another clip in his P90. "I figure we have about five minutes before it becomes very crowded in here. What did you find, Major?"
"A way out. If I'm reading this right, there's a ring room not too far from here."
"Rings? Are you sure?"
"I'm pretty sure." Actually, the symbols were a little odd. The controls only looked vaguely like those for a ring device. But she couldn't figure out what else it could be. "They're almost three floors directly below us."
"Below?" Daniel asked. "We're already under ground, aren't we?"
"Indeed, Daniel Jackson. We are several hundred feet below the planet's surface."
The colonel carefully peered around the corner. "You sure about this, Major?"
"Yes, sir. However, the closest stairs are back through the Jaffa."
There was a moment of silence as they all waited for the colonel make a decision. "Think you can move, Daniel?"
"Well, I'm not going to stay here if that's what you mean. Where do we plan on going?"
"Hey, Carter says down, so we go down."
