Alexis opened her eyes to a world that was much too bright.  She looked down at her body, feeling almost cold. She pulled her shirt away from her body, "Army?"  She looked down at her legs.  There she was, laying in an unknown bed, in only an Army shirt and her plaid boxers. "What the?" she started.  The hospital curtain opened, causing more light to flood in.  She could make out a figure.  "Are you an alien? Did you probe me? Did I like it? Do you know what happened to my pants?" she slurred out.<br/><br/>"Oh, you have been briefed." Janet said taking a step forward.<br/><br/>"What?" Alexis asked.  Janet looked down at her.  "Nevermind."  She pulled out her pen light and shone it into Alexis' eye.<br/><br/>"What the hell is that?" Alexis shouted pulling back and covering her eyes.  "It's just a pen light.  Tell me Lt. Col. Long, what is the last thing you remember."<br/><br/>"I'm retired. And the last thing I remember is getting drunk.  Where am I?"<br/><br/>Janet looked at Alexis, both a twinkle and a bit of sadness were in them.  She hated being the one that had to tell her this. "I'm sorry Lt. Col. Long, you've been stop lossed."<br/><br/>Alexis sat up. "Shit. Not again."<br/><br/>Janet was surprised that this was the second time she had been stopped from getting out.  She handed her stand issue SG uniform.  "General O'Neill would like a word with you, and if I were you, I would be all yes sir, no sir.  You were still drunk when he first saw you."<br/><br/>Alexis nodded and watched as Janet left.  Well, she was cute.  She got dressed quickly and made her way to O'Neill's office.  She tapped on the door and waited for his reply to enter. "Lt. Col. Long reporting as ordered sir!" She snapped to attention and gave a salute.<br/><br/>"Lose the salute Col.  We are a relaxed bunch here.  As you know, there is a program related to physics.  I read your file. You were told you could come far here, and for the past 8 years the SGC had been trying to get you here. Sorry that you had to be stop lossed, but we could use you." He began to explain to him what the Stargate program was all about.<br/><br/>At the end of his speech she simply nodded.  He looked at her. "Welcome to the SGC."<br/><br/>"Sir, I will only be a SG team leader if it's SG:13."  She simply stated.<br/><br/>"This is the military, you don't get a choice."  He handed her a patch. "Your first meeting is 1 hour. Be prepared." O'Neill dismissed her.<br/><br/>She wondered around for a while, finally going back to the briefing room.  There she saw her old time friend Stone.  He gave her a smile. "Stone, how the hell have you been?" She asked.  A young, fresh out of basic soldier walked through the door.  She looked at him, and in her usual greeting asked, "Are you an alien?"  He looked at her confused but then sat down.<br/><br/>"I asked you a question soldier." She glared at him. If there was anything she hated, it was being blatantly ignored. He muttered a "No, ma'am, I'm not an alien."<br/><br/>Stone looked at her. "You didn't ask me."  She grinned.<br/><br/>"I know you aren't an alien."  A few moments later Major Samantha Carter walked through the briefing room doors. She explained to the newly formed SG:25 that they would be helping the Tokra move.  She laughed saying that it was a petty job. "I understand you are expecting something with a little more action Lt. Col. but I'm afraid that this is it.  We want you to get used to some gate travel before we send you somewhere dangerous."
