Chapter 7

The Adamas were staring at Jackson. "You're a Q?" Bill asked, skeptical.

"Yes," Daniel confirmed, "I can prove it if you'd like."

"How?" Kara demanded.

"How what? How can I prove it, or how am I a Q?"

"How are you a Q, I suppose," she answered.

"Well, several years ago, a friend of mine accidently turned me into a Q when my life was in danger." He saw the skepticism in their eyes, and said, "Look, the bottom line is this: You are humans. They are humans. They want to help. The only question is, will you accept their help?"

"Madam President," Riley said, "As I said before, knowing who you people are, changes things considerably."

"How?" Laura asked.

Merlin spoke up. "My understanding is that your history teaches that I was the one who took your people to Kobol."

"Yes," Bill said.

"And does it relate where I took you from?"

"A place of war, death, and destruction," Bill answered.

"It was definitely that," Fargo said, nodding his head sagely.

"So the myths are true?" Kara asked. "You actually did take us to Kobol?"

"Your father and I did, yes."

"My father?" She looked at Jackson and asked, "How could he have had anything to do with it?"

"Time means little to the Q," Nefreyu explained. "For example, Moros was born only sixty years ago."

"However," Guinan added, "I'm approximately eighty thousand years old."

Laura smiled as she realized the implications. "Do the Q often engage in time travel?"

"Enough to where I am well over fifty million years old," Moros informed them.

"And you were only born sixty years ago?" Lee asked. He shook his head as he thought of the information McKay had given them about the twists and turns in time.

"As Nefreyu said, time means little to us," Kirk supplied. "Are you aware of how much time has actually passed since Moros took you to Kobol?"

"Roughly five thousand years," Bill answered.

"It's been a bit more than that," one of the Olympians said. He spoke with a gruff voice, in a caprican accent, and his hair was braided into rough dreadlocks. He saw the Adamas staring at him, waiting. Finally, he said, "Oh... yeah... I'm Ronan, er… Hermes."

"How much time has it been, Hermes?" Laura asked.

"Around three hundred thousand years."

"Andy said that he had spoken English for over three hundred thousand years," Laura remembered.

"Andy was one of the men who helped make sure the stasis chambers were correctly set up before Daniel and I moved them to Kobol," Moros explained.

"I still have a hard time thinking that it was over three hundred thousand years ago, and you were there, Moros," Lee commented.

"People tend to think of time as sort of a straight line," Doctor Smith told him, "but in reality, it's sort of a wibbly, wobbly ball of timey wimey stuff."
