A/N: Okay, so most of you who know me have probably already been following this, but Aislinn (my beta and cowriter, and the one who came up with this wonderful idea) and I thought we should represent in The Losers fandom as well. For you newbs, this is a crossover fic between Losers and the ATF universe of The Magnificent Seven based on the characters from the M7 show. This first chapter was supposed to be just a one-shot, but we had so many requests to continue the story that we went ahead and gave the masses what they wanted. :)

If there are any errors in the Losers side of things, you can go ahead and blame me for those. I'm writing for Clay's team and take full responsibility. Aislinn Graves wrote for the Team 7 boys, so yell at her if you don't like it! (But don't forget to praise us if you do like what we've done! That's much better than the yelling and the finger pointing and the crying that comes after that...lol)

If any of you are checking this out who are new to the M7 boys and are interested in learning more about them, please don't hesitate to ask! I can answer any questions and point you in the right directions to become more familiar with the boys. (Mag 7 remains my favorite show to this day, btw, even though it's like twelve years old!)


Ambush

By Aislinn And Alex Kade

March 2011

Vin squatted down balancing on his toes and stared off into the distance. The view was wonderful from up here and he couldn't help but admire the care it had taken to find such efficient lines of sight. That task wasn't easy in an urban setting, and while buildings offered a marvelous perch they also tended to get in the way. He glanced over and wondered if the other man had even noted his approach. He snickered softly; somehow he doubted it. They hadn't called him Soft Foot for nothing. "You wouldn't be thinking of shooting someone in my town now would ya, Cougar?"

Other than a slight twitch Cougar didn't react to the fact that Vin had gotten the drop on him. He didn't even lift his eye from his scope but Vin could see the slight smile that graced the sniper's lips. "Maybe."

Vin grinned at his friend's honesty. Soundlessly he slid down to his stomach, setting up his own rifle to match the angle of the one beside him. Looking through the scope, he adjusted his view until it landed upon the focus of his friend's unwavering eye. There in the impound yard stood a young man with blond, spiky hair, talking in a highly animated fashion to two burly fellows. The fact that they were both scowling at him and probably outweighed him by at least a hundred pounds each didn't seem to bother the man in the slightest.

"That one yours?" Vin asked, not needing to specify to which man he was referring to.

Cougar merely nodded slightly.

"Kinda cocky, ain't he?" Vin said as he watched the man laugh and place an overly friendly hand on one of the big guy's arm.

Cougar shrugged one shoulder.

Vin smirked as the blond finally noticed the glare he was receiving and promptly removed the offending hand. Whatever words came out of that fast mouth next made Cougar snort and the two large men take a step closer to the younger one. The anger on their faces had deepened two-fold.

"He gonna get himself killed?" Vin asked, shooting the quickest of glances over to his friend before returning his focus on the scene playing out before him.

"Probably," Cougar grinned.

Vin turned his attention back to the impound yard. The blond had backpedaled his hands held out in front of him. Vin could see that he continued talking and finally the two goons stopped moving forward and the anger on their faces smoothed into amusement. Whatever the kid was saying was working. Vin recognized some of the body language as the same that Ezra employed when he worked undercover. Body language that said, "You can trust me". He smiled as the man skillfully took control of the situation. After a few minutes of talk the three shook hands and the blond watched the two goons get in their car and drive away. Then he turned and stared up at the building the two snipers rested on and gave a tiny salute. He quickly made his way over to his own vehicle and left.

Cougar sat up and disassembled his rifle and stowed it in a case. He glanced over at Vin who watched him with a grin of understanding. He grinned back and nodded. "Thanks."

Vin smiled. "No problem. Have a good visit and Cougar… try not to kill anybody while yer here. I'd hate to have to take ya in."

Cougar nodded once in understanding and slipped thorough the door that led to the stairs down.

Vin set up his own sniper post and settled in to watch over his own team. He snickered as Ezra's Spider drove into the same impound lot and parked in the same spot that had just been occupied by another man. He switched on his com unit and reported in. "Falcon in place."
