Part 3 Of Visionary

Chapter 3: Practise makes Perfect… or so they say.
Buffy glanced around the corner of the stone monolith quickly, her hand devices raised and ready.
All clear.
Her hand flickering in the complex hand signals of the Special Forces, she signalled Xander on, nodding; he silently quickly dashed across the clearing to the next stone upright.
Flash.
"Oh bugger, not again!" Xander cursed as he fell to the ground, the Intar shot marking him as out of the game, "memo to self, next time Willow does that spell, make sure she doesn't mark the check-box labelled 'give uber-soldiers intelligence and a grasp of tactics!"
Buffy winced in sympathy, and then grinned, glancing up the length of the monolith, two metres tall, she had done higher…
"Cover me!" she shouted, grinning at the instant volley of Intar shots from Giles that followed that order, but wondering what was taking Willow so long…
"Somebody order a rain of fire?" Willows voice reached her, the tone indicating quite clearly that Willow was channelling the dark side with a side order of sheer mischievousness.
A little warily, Buffy glanced upwards.
In time to see a massive ball of fire heading right for her, yelping, she dived aside, narrowly missing getting hit.
A volley of Intar shots hit the ground around her as the supersoldiers opened fire, and she dived behind the monolith with a curse, "watch the friendly fire Wills!"
"Bloody hell!" Giles cursed loudly, dropping his intar as fire surrounded him, "that blasted tickles!"
O'Neill raised an eyebrow from his perch on the judge's platform, he's surrounded by fire and he says it tickles…. Okay…..
"Giles killed by blue on blue, watch the aim Darth"
Willow smirked at him, "got the aim just fine thanks" she commented, devilry in her tone as she pointed upwards.
O'Neill frowned, "huh?" and looked upwards.
"Oh yeah, tickles right" he commented disgruntled a few seconds later, "you do know you're not supposed to fire on the judges right?"
His only response was a barrage of intar fire from the supersoldiers, a distraction Buffy was all to willing to make use of. Quickly, she ran a few steps back from the monolith, she ran forwards, using the momentum of her speed to jump the full height of the monolith. Landing nimbly on its top, she raised her hands and fired her hand devices, the Goa'uld one which came with Enerina and the hand device she had gotten off Thor.
She grinned as she saw the supersoldiers fall to the ground, acknowledging the kill. She jumped up and down on the narrow stone upright, "we won, we won…."
Two seconds later, Buffy picked herself up from the ground, her side aching where the Intar shot had hit her; she glanced around to see one last supersoldier take Willow out. Disgruntled, she cursed. That would teach her to count her supersoldiers before they hatched.
"And that win, due to friendly fire and gross stupidity goes to the supersoldiers…" O'Neill's sarky tone made her shoot him a dark look.
Then she grinned, "I believe its your turn against the supersoldiers O'Neill"
"Oh balls" was O'Neill's muttered response, "tin man with hearts and big honking guns… I'm in trouble"
