The New Jedi Knights

Chapter 6: Preparing to Talk about the Goa'uld

Weeks turned into months as everyone at the mansion rallied behind Jacob/Selmak, Ben, Emily, and the Tok'ra trainees. Brandon's parents, Chip and Christi, went above and beyond simply observing. They volunteered to serve as hosts for the trainees, offering a tangible way to contribute to their training experience. Similarly, Chip and Christi provided unwavering support to their own children, Ben and Emily.

Sofith spearheaded the anti-Goa'uld initiative. Recognizing the morale boost and the need for collective action, she proposed a global effort involving every Earth citizen. The President, understanding the gravity of the situation, planned to engage his cabinet, congress, and even foreign leaders to unify the planet against the Goa'uld threat. Earth, she emphasized, couldn't rely on external help. Additionally, she mentioned Enki, a Sith Lord, but the details surrounding that figure remain unclear.

"I'll have all law enforcement keep an eye out. I'll get the word out to the entire world that we have these dangerous people among us. Hopefully, everyone, even the Mafia and gangs worldwide will keep away from this character."

"You need to convince everyone they can't do anything with this individual. Thor told us he could kill either Samantha or Brandon. Since we know he is here on Earth, he'll do everything to cause problems for everyone on Earth, especially for every Jedi."

President Obama stated, "If you need to talk with everyone again, let me know."

She thought about the idea for a few seconds. She said, "It looks like I have no other choice. I'll get the old SG-1 team to look after Earth's first two Jedi Knights while they talk to everyone. Since they all know more about these enemies better than any of us, I'll get this team to make their contributions. I think they should start here in Atlanta, Georgia. I'll have a schedule for you to get to other populated areas not only in the United States but the rest of the world."

"You're the only one that can do the job. Once I get this information from you, I'll take it from there. Please keep me posted on what is going on."

"I will, Mr. President." After finishing talking with him, Sofith hung up the phone. She looked at her husband and said, "having Enki show up makes everything harder."

"At least he declared he was here on Earth. Jack has told me these Goa'uld aren't intelligent. It would be simpler for Enki not to show himself. We know they are here on Earth. He can't be the only one here, nor could he be the only one that could have demolished the Bowers' home."

"What I'm concerned about is the safety of Samantha and Brandon."

"Before anything happens to them while they're on Earth, the Asgards will deal with it. You know we all have vowed to protect her from what she has been through."

Jack came to where they were. He heard them talking. "We have been dealing with the Goa'uld for years. They might attack those two, but they'll stay together. They'll defeat them every time. As I told you, they are ruthless, but they aren't that rational. What was Stinky Enki thinking when he took an entire school hostage just to get the attention of those two? That has to be the nonsensical thing I have seen any of them do."

Kavreesh replied, "I have to agree with you, pal. Gremp and I have been pondering that same thing the other day. Still, we can't take this evil person for granted. Thor said he is a powerful Sith Lord. I have read, before the 'Rule of the Two,' there were a fair many Sith Lords at one time, and they were arrogant as a rancor."

The Rule of Two was a radical restructuring of the Sith Order, introduced by Darth Bane to ensure the survival and strength of the Sith through secrecy, discipline, and a strict master-apprentice hierarchy. Before its inception, the Sith operated as a vast and fractured organization, plagued by infighting, betrayal, and power struggles. These internal conflicts left them vulnerable to external enemies, particularly the Jedi Order. Darth Bane, a visionary Sith Lord who emerged after the devastating Battle of Ruusan, recognized this fatal flaw. He concluded that the Sith's greatest weakness was their inability to unite under a single vision and sought to address it by implementing a new doctrine.
