abyssinia4077 wanted Jonas and Vala - "Wanna go for a ride?"

Come Ride a Train, Choo-Choo Train

He watched the woman with long black hair arguing with the bar tender. She was loud, abrasive, and doing it seemingly on purpose. He felt the corners of his mouth twitch up as the bartender was overwhelmed by her frontal assault. Her companion, a warrior hidden beneath a cloak, yanked on her arm and pulled her towards the door. The smile left his face as he caught sight of the clip holding her hair in place. He recognized the smiling little cartoon cat - Hello Kitty if his memory was right. They were from Earth.

Jonas counted to ten before slipping out the door to follow them. Col. O’Neill would be pleased out how silent he’d become. He was liquid that flowed behind them - unobtrusive and just outside the senses. It was a skill forced upon him when the Ori had come - and no one else. He and a few others had done what they could before the Ori accomplished Jonas’s dream of uniting his planet. The others had held off the army, allowing for Jonas and a companion to escape through the Stargate and then they promised to dial Earth to tell them what happened.

His companion had died from her wounds not long afterwards and Jonas was alone again.

He round a corner to see the two were no longer there and he stepped into the shadow of a wall to figure out where they could’ve gone and how to track them. Teal’c had taught him that. Before he finished scanning the road, he felt something hard and small press into his back. “Hello, handsome,” a female voice purred in his ear. “Any particular reason you felt like trailing my friend and I?”

“Don’t know what you’re talking about. Just out for a walk and taking some shade,” replied Jonas.

“Hmm. I really don’t think so, but just in case - I’m going to keep you with me for a bit,” she replied. Jonas heard the sound of something snapping then the smelled the faint waft of peppermint. She was chewing gum - definitely from Earth. His heart was starting to race a little faster and he was sure this woman could tell. After all this time of being alone and on the run, maybe someone from the SGC had gotten his message and had come looking for him. Reynold’s team maybe, or some other one as he didn’t know these two people.

He pushed back the tiny thought that she didn’t seem to know him either and instead threw out a line she’d recognized, “Are you doubling your pleasure with Double Mint?”

The pressure of the gun at his back lessened for a brief moment before it was shoved even harder into his spine. “Oh yes, I do believe I’m keeping you. Mitchell will be back with Muscles soon and we can figure out just who you are and why we should shoot you.”

“Oh I can tell you who I am - I’m Jonas Quinn.” He knew it was rash to announce it in case it was an elaborate set up, but he was desperate for the peace and solitude of the Mountain, or death at this rate. He knew he’d guessed correctly when the gun was removed from his back and she pulled him around to look at her. The woman looked him up and down and then just stared at him with an unreadable look.

“You are from Earth right”? He asked, feeling a little stupid, but he was desperate.

“No.” Jonas felt his heart hit his feet and closed his eyes to prepare himself for what was coming next.

“Not originally, anyways. My god, Muscles and the rest are going to be thrilled,” she continued as she looked over his shoulder towards people who were coming up behind him. “And you all said I couldn’t find anything pretty here, but look! I found another member of that band you keep talking about, Col. Mitchell. I think this means us aliens are now equal to you Earth people on the team.” As she spoke to them, she looped an arm around Jonas’s neck and pulled him down for a weird half hug he’d seen large men on TV on Earth do often.

Jonas looked up for the awkward position to see Teal’c standing there next to the woman’s companion. Behind the Jaffa, he could see two other figures running up - Dr. Jackson and Sam. With one deep breath, he let go of the tension he’d been carrying for months. They surrounded him as they hugged, tugged, and asked questions he really couldn’t answer right then. As a group, they started to move to a clearing where the man known as Mitchell touched his com link to tell the Odyssey that SG-1 was ready for pick-up and they were bringing along a friend.

The woman, Vala, turned to him just before they were picked up and asked, “Wanna go for a ride, Jonas?”

“Been waiting for this one for awhile now.”
