"No, oh no." She can't step in. More images flood her mind, chief among them the experience of being heavily pregnant, then suddenly not-pregnant and in Daniel's body. It makes no sense, none at all. "Where's our baby? How could I forget the baby? They took her, didn't they? They're keeping her from me." She won't get in that elevator, won't let them take her down into the depths of the mountain without her daughter.
She tries to run, but Teal'c catches her. So many faces hover over her: alarmed, upset faces. She knows them, knows they won't hurt her, but she can't trust what she's remembering, and punches Cam in his wounded arm, jabs Sam in the belly, kicks Daniel in the ribs, bruises Teal'c's shins, because—
"I'm not Qetesh! I was only her unwilling host. Let me go—"
But they don't; someone holds her arms to her side in a massive bear hug, and her legs are held tight together with a firm grip; two hands hold her head still, making her look into eyes brimming with tears behind glasses sitting askance.
"Listen Vala, please. You're safe. You're home. We're not gonna let anyone hurt you. Remember."
"I didn't mean to hurt you, or anyone." She goes limp, relenting to fatigue. "I just want to be myself again." - omg just....this whole passage, watching it play out in my head, so brutal and angsty! love love love it!
