War, Part 3

I manage to pull myself up and regain my bearings.

I retrieve my weapon: a single snowball. Some say that someone else is carrying a bullet for you right now and doesn't even know it. That the trick is to die of old age before it finds you. In this case, it's a snowball. It's meant for Teal'c. And it will find him before he reaches old age, I'll see to it. Since Jaffa age differently than we humans, I will have ample time to achieve the mission.

I wait calmly and quietly for him to stir.

Movement in the distance betrays my friend's position.

He's mine now.
