Chapter 2: The Assault

To say the two teams were not exactly enthusiastic about the plan Xander, Buffy and O'Neill had cooked up was to call the Hellmouth a minor demonic hotspot. They felt that the plan had about as much chance of succeeding as Colonel Simmons had of successful impersonating a nice guy, instead of an evil NID agent.

But it was the only real plan they had, and so they would attempt to carry it out, though it was only likely to take two of the 17 ships Anubis had available to him out of the equation, the ship they blew and the ship they evaced in.

Team 1, consisting of Buffy as the heavy hitter (literally), Xander, Daniel and Carter would beam aboard one of Anubis's motherships, right next to a Naquadah store if Thor could manage it, place explosives, and then fight their way to a ring room or launchbay and escape to join Team 2, O'Neill, Teal'c, Giles and Willow aboard the second mothership which should be at least partially pacified by that time. It was a plan; it just wasn't a particularly good one. It didn't mention exactly how they would get away with the mothership, when they would have at least 14 Ha'taks and another mothership desperately trying to stop them. It didn't mention what they would do if the defending Jaffa and supersoldiers received reinforcements.

In short, they would be winging it, again, and both teams knew all to well what tended to happen when their leaders winged it, and they were afraid… for the Goa'uld's.

With a flash of light, Thors ship appeared in the Tyrendula system, Anubis's ships instantly moving to the attack, but not fast enough as eight figures disappeared off the Asgard vessel, reappearing unnoticed aboard two of the motherships. One Ha'tak approached close enough to fire upon Thor's ship, and Thor returned fire, every weapons battery on the Asgard vessel firing as one. The Ha'tak blossomed into a blazing ball of fire as Thor vanished into hyper, heading home.

With a curse, team 1 rose to their feet, carefully climbing off the Naquadah bricks Thor had dumped them on. They knew they had told him as close as possible, but this was ridiculous. Anyone would think the little guy had been corrupted by O'Neill's sense of humour over the years. Which, Carter admitted to herself privately was actually a pretty scary thought, she wondered momentarily what Thor would do on April 1st, then shuddered and turned back to the task at hand, burying explosives and detonators amongst the bricks as the others kept watch.

Finally, she finished, satisfied that the explosives were ready, "Okay, we've got 15minutes to clear dodge, let's go!"

"Yeah, before we become part of the big bang theory" Buffy quipped.

"And not the one involving the prostitute either" Daniel blushed as he realised he had added that last part out loud, then blushed even more as he noticed the shocked looks he was getting from the rest of the team, "It was a favourite joke of an old friend okay? 15 minutes remember?"

"Right" Carter shared amused looks with the rest of the team as they walked swiftly out of the room, zatting the sentries from behind as they moved.

Team 2 was having a harder time of it, they had been beamed right to main environmental just as they wanted, but had been spotted by the guards as they arrived and were now under fire, pinned behind a console. They were returning fire, but it being just Jaffa who had engaged them so far they were reluctant to let Willow 'deal' with the problem, on the grounds of overkill, and for that matter, saving her energy for when they might really need it.

With a metallic clatter a Jaffa fell, Willow having bent a zat bolt around the corner to him, followed by more clatters as Jaffa, slightly shocked by the zat bolts abrupt course change were slow to duck behind cover.

"What did I say about saving your energy?" O'Neill asked the wiccan, secretly pleased by the effectiveness of her move.

"Don't waste it, and I didn't, it worked, anyways I'm sensing supersoldiers on the way, at least 10"

O'Neill gulped as a strong wind filled the room, apparently coming from nowhere, and then gulped again as Willows feet left the ground, her hair turning the pure white of the guardian witch she was as she called upon her energies to defeat the approaching supersoldiers. Then gulped a third time when he heard willow give a wicked giggle.

"Hey, Teal'c, no minds of their own right?"

"Indeed, the supersoldiers do not possess a mind of their own" Teal'c replied.

Willow giggled slightly, then started chanting,

"Mindless beasts, servants of darkness,

Have no way, have no hope,

Hear my plea, hear my pledge,

Have my way, Have my hope,

This champion summons the light,

This champion offers the light,

Mindless beasts, be granted mind,

Servants of darkness be granted the light

Have the way, have the hope,

Answer my plea, answer my pledge,

Take my way, accept my Hope,

This Champion summons the light,

This champion offers the light"

O'Neill cursed as ten black suited figures of Anubis's supersoldiers strode confidently into the room, spraying the area with lethal bolts of energy. O'Neill dived back behind the console and was about to grab the supersoldier killer, or whatever it was Carter was calling it these days when he noticed the growing pile of Jaffa bodies, the lack of any weapons being fired at his team, and the covering fire he was receiving, from the supersoldiers? What the hell?

O'Neill blinked; then slowly carefully raised his head above the console he was hiding behind. He blinked again, followed by a rapid what the hell? The supersoldiers had set-up a perimeter and were guarding the humans.

"Err… Willow? Explanation?"

"Indeed, I too would be most interested in an explanation"

"It's a rare spell" Giles replied, sending an amused and proud smile at Willow, "instead of just killing the supersoldiers, she asked the Powers That Be to, on her behalf, give them the ability and the information they need to choose who they should serve"

"Cool" O'Neill replied, impressed.

"Has a downside in that it can only be performed by a champion and it can only be performed once a year"

O'Neill considered that, "Still pretty cool"

"O'Neill" Teal'c said, a pensive look o his face, "I find myself with a strange desire"

O'Neill turned worried, "What?"

"To see Anubis's face when he hears 10 of his supersoldiers have switched sides"
