Darkness was falling as Sam's team finally managed to get to the Delta Force team. The Deltas were spread out behind trees advancing towards the hills. Because of this fact, a simple plan, Teal'c would you his stealthy abilities to take creep up on the men from one side, Cracknell who another quite large man would take the other side. Sam and Hannah were monitoring the situation ready to take out any of the other Deltas who turned around and realised what was happening.

Teal'c crept up behind one of the Delta's nearest him, he clamped his hand over the Deltas mouth and pressed his Intar into his back and took him out. He crumpled, Tiner who was shadowing him, quickly marked him as killed.

From Jack's position in the control he watched proudly as the Deltas fell until only their leader was left. Sam was moving closer to him, she wanted the leader for herself, Jack knew it was about pride.

"Hey Kwell." Sam called when she was a few feet behind him. "Goodnight." As he turned Sam shot him. She market him killed and switched his tracker over, before dropping a note on his chest. "Guys, let's head that way. Set up camp for the night."

"Yes ma'am." Cracknell said.

"Ma'am do you think we could get Thor to drop by and take us to a nice hotel for the night?" Salter asked.

"Nice idea, but no."

"Are you sure ma'am? Didn't you like save his planet I'm sure he's grateful." Tiner questioned.

"We did, but do you want to explain the General Hammond and the President why we're abusing our alien allies?"

"Camping it is." Tiner agreed.

"Er... women." Kwell muttered as he tried to sit up.

"Sir..." His men were gathering around him.

"How did you let yourselves be taken out?" Kwell demanded.

"I got a hand clamped over my mouth, and then I blacked out." His second in command rubbed the back of his neck.

"What the hell kind of weapons do they have sir?"

"It's obviously some kind of stun gun, but it looks like a normal gun." Kwell said. "She bloody shot me face on after taking you all out, she had the gumption to wish me goodnight before she shot me."

"Looks like she left you a note too sir." Another pointed out.

"What's she have to say for herself?" The 2IC asked.

" 'What do they say? All's fair in love and war? May work for love but in war the strong and smart are victorious and weak shall fall. Nice try. Three down two to go.' Signed Major Carter with a lipstick kiss."

"Damn." Someone muttered. "Sir, do we have to tell anyone we got taken out by a woman?" Someone asked.

"No, but we're bloody go to go back into training when we get back. This is unacceptable."

"Yes sir." They all said.

"Deltas are out sir." The Lieutenant told Vidrine as he walked back into the control room for an update.

"What did she do this time?"

"Sir they appeared to creep up on them and take them out one by one until the CO was left then Major Carter took him out herself." The Lieutenant replied.

"It's all about pride sir, if you don't have pride in your work."

"Where are they headed now?" Vidrine asked.

"Probably to the hidden underground cave system sir, it's a secure place to hide for the night." Jack replied.

"Cave system? What cave system?"

"There's a system of small caves hidden there sir." Jack pointed to the map.

"There has never been any mention of caves on this island Colonel. Where did you get your information?"

"They say good Intel is the best defence sir."

"Where?"

"Sir, we spent the two weeks prior to planning this operation at the Pentagon, we have friends there. It's not hard to get a topographical map of the island and more information about it."

"I see."

"Would you like to see our 3-d map of the island, it shows the caves?"

"Let's see it Colonel." Jack handed the zip disk to the Lieutenant who loaded the map up onto the screen.

"You can manoeuvre anywhere on the island and get a rough picture of your bearings from what you want to see."

"I've never seen a program with this specific data on it."

"It's a program Major Carter came up with, she's trying to perfect it for the UAV's, to make recon a little easier, it's still in the design and testing stage, but it does have practical applications."

"So it would seem, let's see this cave system." Vidrine instructed. Jack stepped over and tapped on the keyboard and the image changed to where the cave system was hidden.
