AN: Ahem...just in case. Sydney and Vaughn don't know Cass used telekinetic powers to save Syd. They think she just .....did it.

The next morning proved that their mission had been a success so far. They spent the day tracking Kolsaki everywhere he went; the pool, the hotel restaurant, a toy store, back to his room. They were all mystified by the toy store, but ignored it as simple strange behavior. Kolsaki was known to be a family man, maybe he was picking upa souvenier.
He had a private flight schedualed to leave the Madrid airport at 6:30pm, for where they didn't know as he hadn't logged a destination yet. The plan was to stowaway on the air plane then use the tracker to follow him to wherever he was going.
They had a little trouble finding somewhere to effectivly "stowaway" as there was no real cargo space on the jet, but they found an appropriate room near the landing gear that they could hunker down in. They didn't speak because really it would have been too loud to hear anything anyway.
They still had no idea where they were going when, after only an hour, they began to land. Sydeny and Vaughn wanted to get off right away, but Cassi told them to wait. They were on the ground only a couple of minutes before they took off again.
Just enough time to bring on some more cargo? Cass said silently to Teal'c. He inclined his head slightly to show his agreement.
They'd been back in the air for about 20 minutes when a feeling made Cass perk up. It was unlike anything she'd felt before, being like a shadow of a mixture of two things she knew well. She had tuned herself out completely to the other humans on the plane, but she wasn't sure this was human. Or at least, not all human. She opened herself up a bit more and realized there were now more men aboard the plane. A contingen in fact. She crawled over to Bristo and brought her mouth right up to the woman's ear.
"I think something's up!" she said over the noise. Sydeny gave her a look. Cassi didn't know how to explain so she just shrugged. She used two fingers to point at her eyes, then the door, suggesting they do a little surevelance. The CIA agent looked hesitant. She crawled to Vaughn and spoke with him. Cass waited. The man stood and she saw him nod. She looked back at Teal'c.
Something's wrong. We're going to have a look around she told him. He immediately stood, the hand gun he'd been given ready in his hand. They moved to the door and out in stealth mode. They were still at the back of the plane where there were no guards so they moved quickly for a few moments. Then they reached a door. There was no where else to go but back, which Bristo promptly suggested they do. Then they heard the rapid succesion of gun shots. Cass didn't wait for approval, already knowing they would find corpses on the other side, she kicked the door in and entered. The next minute or two was a blur. They had caught the killers by surprise for a second, but they soon rushed the intruders. Firearms being useless in such close quarters, and Cassi restricted by orders, they fell to hand to hand combat. The action was intense. It was 8 to 4 in the bad guys' favor. Sydney sucker punched one assailant, then spun to deliver a kick to another's jaw. She was grappled from behind and used a small coffee table to give him a blow to the head with her feet.
Cass hopped into the air, flipped and landed behind her assailant where she deftly knocked him out with a blow to the right spot in his back. She dropped to the floor and tripped her next assailant, giving him a quick hit at the nape of his neck.
Vaughn and Teal'c had disposed adequately of the rest of the killers, but they were only in time for the door to open. A blue eyed blonde man stepped through the thresh hold and Cass got the urge to run from him.
"Sark" Sydney said. The man inclined his head politely.
"Sydney. How nice to see you" and then he fired at her. She ducked, Vaughn dove, and Cassi made sure the bullet missed. Both CIA agents beat a hasty retreat the way they had come, their attaches on their heels and Sark just behind them, letting a shot off now and again. Finally they reached their hide away room, a dead end, and got the door closed.
"That won't last long!" Cass shouted. Sydney looked around almost frantically as the sounds of Sark trying to break down the door reached their ears. She found what she was looking for hanging near the hatch. She grabbed 4 bags and handed them out. Cassi stared at it.
"Are you crazy!" she shouted, "It's dark! You won't be able to see the ground!" Sydney did notice her use of "you" but saved the question for later. She didn't respond, but rather pulled a pair of nigh vision goggles out of her ever useful pack. Vaughn was doing the smae. So, Cassi grinned and nodded and as she and Teal'c put thier packs on, Sydney blew the hatch. And just in time too, because then Sark made it through the door. The CIA agents seemed to be waiting, Teal'c wasn't ready yet, but Cassi yelled,
"Go, go, go!" So they went. Sark fired at them but missed.
Don't worry about it Tik! Cassi told her companion, I'll carry you! He nodded and together they hopped out the door into the dark, cool, barely breathable air.
