"Carter, what's the bad news?"

She sighed. "It's Daniel, Sir." And wasn't Jack tired of hearing that phrase? He took a deep breath as she continued. "It turns out that the political situation on P5X-329 was even less stable than we had been told."
A soft chirrup from his computer notified Jack of Landry's incoming email.

"There was an attack by the rebel faction while we were there. The section of the building that Daniel was in was hit hard. It took us a while to get him out. He's in the infirmary now."

Jack was scanning the email as Carter spoke, each version filling in gaps from the other. Chemical weapons, Mitchell pulling Daniel out and getting him home, both men suffering varying levels of effects from the toxic gas -- breathing problems, skin lesions...

"He can't see, Sir." Carter's voice broke, and she paused to take a shuddering breath.
