Seto Kaiba Vs SG-1
Side-fic to Harry Potter and the Millennium Items
Kaiba returns to Kaiba Corp to defend his holographic tech from the American Air force who are preventing his duel discs from been released in America.
Chapter 1) SG-1's briefing
"With all due respect General why us?" Doctor Daniel Jackson was painfully aware of just how close he came to sounding like Jack with that sentence, and sounding like jack was something he wanted to avoid when talking to General Jack O'Neill who was presently standing at the head of the briefing table a tell tale smirk present on his face.
"Well after the incident with the Asgard clone were not taking any chances" he explains "at least this time were dealing with just holograms"
"Actually sir just holograms doesn't cover it" Sam interjects "Kaiba Corps Holograms are so realistic you can't tell their not real and the miniaturization of the technology into a hand held unit…" she shakes her head "in less than a year after producing the original Holo-stadium projectors"
"Exactly" states O'Neill "either His Companies brilliant in which case we want to hire them or its run by aliens, the Gould or whatever in which case we shut them down"
"I am afraid I do not understand the application of this technology" Teal'c admitted speaking for the first time "the briefing notes kept referencing something called Duel Monsters"
"It's a card game" O'Neill explains "kinda like dungeons and dragons…it's a game played with different types of cards, monster cards which fight, spell cards which power up the monsters and give the player an advantage and traps to prevent your opponents moves, the holograms really make it life like, the monsters actually fight each other"
"I see" Teal'c says dryly, Daniel was looking at O'Neill mouth gaping open, Sam raises an eyebrow at her superior officer who looks back at them as if to say "what!"
"So I've watched a broadcast of Japanese duels once or twice" O'Neill defends himself "subtitles were vague at best but I picked up the general idea"
"Alright but why do I have to go?" Daniel was beginning to sound like he was whining which he supposed he was.
O'Neill sighs "carters there to talk Techno babble, Teal'c for support in case this Kaiba guys a Gould, and your there for translations"
Pause
"I'm not fluent in Japanese" Daniel states "I can speak broken Japanese, but there are several dead and alien languages that I can speak way better than I can speak Japanese"
Pause
"Stop been defeatist Daniel" O'Neill makes it an order "I have faith in you, go out there an dif you can…buy me a duel disk I've already made up a pretty good deck, maybe during my owed vacation I can try out for the Californian championships, providing the World isn't in deadly danger again" he sits down in the chair at the head of the table.
SG-1 just look at him, he looks up and notices their scrutiny he claps his hands "shake a leg, go on, shoo, shoo, I have SG-20 due in for their briefing on the wonders of P-66 777 in…" checks his watch "ten minutes"
"Actually sir that's SG-10 they visited P-77 666 and are due in about twenty minutes…" she corrects him before beating a hasty retreat, Daniel sighs once more and follows her, Teal'c smiles like only he does and walks out of the briefing room leaving O'Neill alone.
O'Neill taps the desk and picks up a remote spinning around in the chair to face the wall mounted monitor he clicks a button on the remote the blank screen turns onto a Japanese channel showing two teenagers in the middle of a duel using Duel Disks and some cool looking monsters, another click on the remote and English sub-titles are activated.
O'Neill reaches behind him and pulls a medium sized bag of popcorn out from under the table and starts munching.
