Chapter 9: Truth

"What do you mean by your sister? Vala only gave birth to you!" Mitchell exclaimed as be stood in front of Claire trying to protect her.

The Ori soldiers lowered their weapons and pointed them at the floor, as they too were puzzled by what Adria had meant by 'sister.'

"As you know Mitchell I'm not biologically Vala's daughter but a creation of the Ori. When a say 'sister' I mean it loosely." Adria sighed as she turned to the villagers and then pointed to Claire. "She was also made by the Ori, in fact she was 'born' first, to bring down the unbelievers back in our home galaxy. But-" Adria paused trying to lure the villagers into submission by lies, if not force would do the trick.

"But what!" Claire shouted at her. "What happened to me!?" Claire was getting a dangerous mix of emotions. Sadness, humiliation, anger, madness they were all slowly beginning to intertwine and become one.

"You betrayed us and began to rise a rebellion. You tried to take control for yourself and mass murdered many villages, just like this one." Adria said completely calmly. She had them right where she wanted them.

The villagers all gasped and started talking among themselves, whispering about the truth of Adria had spoken about. The remaining soldiers too began to question the intentions of Claire.

"You're lying! Claire would never do that!" Cameron shouted in angered rage.

"How dare you say that the one that was sent by the Ori to save you is lying!" Many of the Ori soldiers shouted in retaliation.

"It's ok, I forgive him. Now stay quiet!" Adria barked at them. She hated it when these lowly mortals got in her way. "The priors gathered together under orders from the Ori. They knew that they couldn't kill you, as you were too powerful, so they sealed you away. For all eternity." Adria lowered her arm and turned to face Cameron and Claire. "But shortly after Daniel Jackson and my mother visited us through the communication device, we detected a powerful energy surge from the planet where you were sealed. I never expected this."

Valmont had managed to crawl out of the rubble from when Claire had thrown him into the house wall. He was heavily banged up, unfortunately he was still alive and able to cause much damage if handed a weapon.

"You're lying!" Claire charged out from behind Cameron and ran towards Adria. Claire raised her clenched fist and swung at Adria who caught Claire's hand in hers and threw Claire up and into a different house that crumbled under the pressure. The on-looking villagers ran away from the village square in search of safety, the Ori soldiers did the same along with Valmont but in the other direction.

The only ones left in the village square were Adria, Claire and Cameron. Claire lifted up a piece of the wall that had collapsed on top of her. The dress she was wearing had been completely torn off, luckily Claire had worn a red vest top and black shorts underneath, along with her two trademark knives that were neatly tied around her waist.

Claire casually walked back to where Cameron was stood and smiled mockingly at Adria.

"You call that a counterattack?" Claire asked has she clicked her knuckles.

"You call that a attack?" Adria answered back, as she smiled back in the same manner as Claire.

"I'm just warming up!" Claire said as she ran towards Adria again. Cameron was about to chase after her, but he felt a mysterious force holding him back, obviously Claire had done it to prevent him form getting hurt or in the way.

Adria too ran towards Claire and they collided exchanging blows with one another. In physical abilities Claire had the upper hand but with the super natural powers Adria had the upper hand. They were basically equally matched.

Punch after punch, kick after kick, Adria and Claire kept trying to knock the other off balance so that they could gain the advantage.

Adria suddenly managed to punch Claire in the stomach and knocked the air out her lungs. Claire was then thrown backwards towards Mitchell but she landed on her feet and regained her ground. Unfortunately Adria had leapt towards Claire, forming an energy ball in her right hand and fired it at Claire.

Claire placed her hands out in front of her and braced herself for impact. The fireball travelled at a tremendous speed and hit Claire at pinpoint accuracy. Smoke surround Claire and nothing was visible, the smoke continued to engulf the entire village square.

"Claire! Claire please be alright!" Cameron called out trying to break free of the force holding him back.

It was impossible to see through the thick smoke.

"It's over." Adria said as she put her head down and the smoke engulfed her.

Cameron called out again.

"CLAIRE!"
