"So what are we doing now sir?" One of the Rangers asked, darkness had
fallen around them.
"Let's dig in for the night. I doubt they'll attack now, they're probably on the other side of the island, we'll head in land at first light." The CO of the Rangers team replied.
"Smithfield, Blake take watch. Everyone else bed down for the night. Usual intervals for watches."
Little did they know that Sam's team was on the ridge watching, listening in and waiting to attack.
Sam made gestures indicating what she wanted them to they all nodded in understand. Waiting until it was safe they slowly crawled spreading out around the sand due, waiting until the Rangers guard was down.
It took another twenty minutes went by before Sam gave Cracknell the signal and he tossed the largest rock he could through right into the water, creating a large splash, which caused Smithfield and Blake to turn around. Sam gave another signal to Salter who was on the side of the due, who tossed another rock which hit and the Rangers turned again.
"Sir." Smithfield said sharply.
"What?" He groaned.
"I think we have company."
"What makes you say that?" He asked.
"Someone is throwing rock in th...." He didn't get to finish his sentence as Tiner's Intar shot hit, another hit Blake they both crumpled onto the sand.
"Everyone up now." He screamed.
Sam let out a whistle, which was the signal for her whole team to begin shooting. The Rangers were out cold before they even got chance to dig in. Sam's team scuttled down the due to the group.
"Kill shot them and spread them out along the beach and put some sand over them to keep their warm, I don't want them getting pneumonia while they wake up."
"Sounding very maternal there ma'am." Cracknell teased as he turned the device on the back of Blake's shirt to signal that he'd been 'killed'.
"Try being married to a man who is a big kid and you'd get real maternal, real quick."
"What's the plan when we're done with these guys?" Tiner asked using the red dye pen to mark the foreheads.
"Retreat back into the forest and get some sleep. We've still got some SEALs, Special Ops and Delta Force boys to take out and I'd like to get home sooner rather than later."
"Yes ma'am."
"Major Carter, I suggested we move quickly the effects of the Intar will wear off soon." Teal'c reminded.
"Go." Tiner said, "All done." They started dragging them down the beach and covering them with sand.
Sam scribbled a note like she had before.
"Sir wake up." Blake shook his CO's shoulder.
"What?" He groaned. "What happened?"
"We're dead sir. They took us out."
"Damn. How'd that happen?"
"We let our guard down sir." Blake replied.
"That was a rhetorical question."
"Major Carter left you a note." Smithfield said helping him up.
"What's it say?"
"Have fun building sandcastles, we've got some more hunting to do. Two down three to go. Signed Major Carter and a lipstick kiss."
"At least we weren't the first team taken out."
"So what now sir?"
"Get some sleep and enjoy the sun tomorrow I guess."
"To bed boys."
"And the Rangers are out." Jack said hiding a smile.
"Are they planning any more night attacks?" Vidrine question.
"No sir. They'll probably bed down for the night. They know they have a busy day tomorrow."
"Good. I'm going to bed. The night shift will be here to monitor the situation, whether you stay or not is up to you."
"Yes sir. Goodnight."
"Goodnight Colonel."
