Hello! I'm not confident in my writing skills, but thought i would give it a go. Please review thank you.
It was just an ordinary day, bright sun and a light wind rustling through the leaves of the trees. It was pleasant as SG1 stepped through the wormhole of the stargate. The only thing to break the peace was the voice of the commander of SG1 Colonel jack O'Neill
"oh trees trees and more trees what a wonderful green galaxy we live in" he sing-songed as the rest of the team came through.
"Sir, The UAV showed sighs of a village about 3 hours walk east from the gate" Said Major Sam carter
"Ok, campers lets get moving, we got people to meet" he said as everyone started walking
1 hour 20 minutes into the walk towards the village the trees started to thin out to reveal what once would have been a well worn track. The sun that had been steady making its way across the sky had rose to its zenith. The heat was causing everyone except Teal'c to sweat from there movements as the heat came down on them.
Daniel and Sam had been talking as they walked trying to ignore the heat coming down on them in the now treeless landscape which was occasionally dotted with boulders.
"ok, everyone rest stop" said O'Neill as he stopped and propped himself by a large boulder and took a drink.
Daniel dropped himself to the floor with a sigh of relief and took out his canteen to take a large swallow, Sam slowly sat on the ground propped up by a by a big boulder and took some water. Teal'c leaned on his staff weapon looking down the track towards the distance whilst taking a sip from his own canteen.
After a few minutes there set off once again towards the village, the trip was uneventful and the track took them to a small bluff over looking an oasis where a small village was built around. Teal'c saw a track leading from the bluff the team was now standing on that looked like it would take them to the village.
As they followed the path towards the village there were not surprised to see the head man walking down the path before they reached the village proper.
"Hail! You must stop where you are" the headman said
"Hail! My name is Daniel Jackson this is jack, Sam and Teal'c we are peaceful travelers from earth we mean you no harm" Daniel said with his hands out in front of him and palms open.
The chief regarded this man with much curiosity.
"I am kunmin, leader of this village, you say your peaceful explorers yet you come with weapons" he said in a slightly accusatory tone.
"well, you never know what ya going to find on the other side of the gate" jack replied a little sarcastically, Daniel gives jack a warning look hoping he will keep shut so that he can explain.
With a sigh born of long suffering patience and a need to get a move on with things jack motions with his hand for Daniel to explain.
"We are peaceful explorers, and mean you and your people no harm" Daniel pauses to see what effect his reassurances have on the chief, "we carry weapons yes, but only to defend ourselves as there is no way of knowing how people will react to seeing strangers in there village".
Kunmin looked at each of them assessing the truth of that statement seeing only truth in there eyes he said "we the people of Candahar welcome the travelers of earth" with that he motions everyone to follow him the rest of the way to the village.
