Chapter 10- I Hate Being Right.
"You know the one thing about my life that I hate the most other than the
fact I make a living out of living one big secret. Is the fact I'm always
right. I just wish for once I could be wrong, BUT NOOOOOOO I have to be
right just about every time. It's quite annoying and frustrating, yes
greatly frustrating. Okay well I'm not right every single time I say
something, but there are time. Once on the other side of the gate we had
about a minute to realize that we were in some deep shit. We had time to
get our bearings then take cover as the bombardment came right at where we
were standing. The blasts from staffs came at us from a one-eighty degree
angle so it was easily to take cover. We didn't return fire immediately,
because the Colonel deiced he wanted to get a better idea of their forces
first."
"Lt go left and find an end to their barrage." Chris nodded and took off not wasting time in answering or giving away her position, "Major go to the right" Freddie nodded and took off as well.
"Alright Mike, Teal'c we are going to create a distraction." Colonel Grayson said. The two nodded and step up and let loose a barraged of cover fire. After a few minutes there was a flash of light of some kind and the attackers stopped firing Teal'c, Mike, and Grayson looked slightly confused. They had not heard firing from either Chris or Freddie this worried them. There was a sudden movement in the bushes and Freddie emerged.
"Colonel you might want to see this." Freddie said. Slowly and with caution Grayson, Teal'c and Mike stepped forward. As the came to the other side of the bushes they saw Chris standing over a small group of bodies. She held her weapon at the ready and slowly made her way towards her comrades.
"What the hell did you do?" Grayson asked.
"I'm not sure what happened sir but I just saw a flash of light and they all fell down." Freddie said he looked at Chris who just didn't say anything. Chris actually looked a bit confused and slightly glassy eyed.
"Chris are you alright?" Grayson asked
"I'll be fine sir" Chris said as she stood near her CO her balance wavered slightly.
"They are dead." Teal'c said. Chris turned and looked at the bodies she seemed distant.
"Alright well they are no longer going to be trouble." Grayson said as he started looking around "Now where did they come from?"
"This way sir" Chris said. She led them slowly away from the gate remembering every detail as they walked.
