Chapter 11: Bra'tac, Tarithna's and Prophecies

Bra'tac walked swiftly around the corner into the small gym, set up just for SG-Scooby's use and stopped. He blinked, taking a rapid step backwards, forcing Teal'c to move quickly out of his way. Then Bra'tac and the grinning SG-1 team members dived out of the way as a punching bag went flying over their heads, smashing into the corridor behind them.

"Opps, sorry guys" Bufy said sheepishly.

Bra'tac looked at the small, unthreatening blonde, then at the hefty, obviously reinforced punching bag, and its broken, heavy duty chain. Bra'tac wasn't stupid.

"You are the Tarithna, are you not?"

"That lot been telling stories out of school again?" Buffy commented wryly, as she grabbed the heavy punching bag, slinging it over her shoulder to carry back into the gym.

"Indeed" Bra'tac replied, "I do not believe they have mastered the concept of secret identities, when it applies to other people"

Buffy glanced at the aging Jaffa appraisingly, "No, they have not, though they complain swiftly enough at any thing that compromises their identities"

O'Neill and Carter traded winches, the comments were starting to get very pointed.

"What prophecy brings you here?" Bra'tac asked, causing SG-1 to look up startled.

"They told you about that did they?" Buffy replied, starting to feel a little upset with SG-1.

"No, they did not, however from what tales I have heard of the Tarithna it seemed a safe assumption" Bra'tac replied.

"Well, Giles or Daniel can give you the details, but there is an open prophecy running at the moment, and it was a prophetic dream that brought me here in the first place, a very 'subtle' prophetic dream at that" she finished wryly.

"It must be hard having a prophecy about you; I mean it must make you wonder if everything you do is fated, if you have any real control over what you do" Daniel commented.

"The first prophecy about me made me wonder, nowadays I try not to think about it too much, and just get on with the life I have" Buffy replied, leading the group from the gym, towards the small room the Scooby's had requisitioned as a meeting room.

" SG-1, SG-Scooby report to the briefing room" They exchanged glances, then raced to the briefing room, Bra'tac following swiftly behind.

"Intel picked up some interesting information from the computers on Del Shakka Mel, Anubis has captured a Queen Goa'uld, and is using her offspring for experimentation purposes, mainly for the purpose of creating a stronger, longer lasting supersoldier" Hammond paused to let that sink in, "at the moment, the facility is relatively unguarded as most of it's defenders were diverted to Anubis's fleet, this research facility must be destroyed, and it cannot be by gate as the planet is question has an iris on it's gate"

"So we will be taking the mothership then…" Willow trailed off at the negative look on Hammonds face.

"No, Anubis still has it's fleet, we've weakened it, but it was still building up according to Intel from the Del Shakka Mels computers, Anubis was supposed to be arriving with a fourth mothership at roughly 0230 last night"

Hammond nodded as the two teams collectively winched.

"Indeed, so we need to keep Prometheus and Del Shakka Mel in system to help defend Earth if Anubis decides to attack anyway"

"Our Ha'tak will stay and assist, if you are willing to help with repairs" Bra'tac added.

"I was hoping you would say that, we would consider it an honour Master Bra'tac" Hammond replied, a slight smile on his face, "as far as transportation goes, SG-1 will pilot an Al-kesh , cloaked variant, from the mothership, as far as we are aware there are no ships likely to be in orbit when you arrive, but little is known of ther planet or any peculiarities of the base layout, you will need to think on your feet, any questions?"

"Then you go at 2200, dismissed"

Thanks to all who have reviewed so far.

Special notes:
Alex: Didn't know that but I plan on working around it somehow.
Reikson: Shalkra class? Is that the official designation for the motherships?
Fantasychick: Read, loved. Awaiting the sequal that was promised...
