The group walked towards the gym slash training area, Buffy and Sam were in the lead talking quietly, Angel was behind them with the other men behind him. Angel was pondering Buffy's comment about the loophole in his curse, he knew she wasn't lying for the consequences would be disastrous for both of them, yet he also knew that Willow didn't have the knowledge or the skill yet to change the curse the gypsies put on him so many years ago. His brooding was pushed to the side when he noticed that they had arrived at the Gym, having only glanced at the room before, when they were given a tour of the base Buffy and Angel were impressed by the room.
Buffy nodded her head in approval before moving to the area with mats out for sparing, sometime between arriving here and now she had managed to change into some sweats and a loose t-shirt which she had been given by some airmen. Turning to face the others present she looked pointedly to Teal'c and Angel.
"So how should we do this, I mean do you want just me and Angel to fight, or both of us attack Teal'c, or we have turns facing him.?" Jack thought about it before turning to Teal'c who just raised a brow.
"I think it would be best if you both attack Teal'c then you spar against each other" Jack said not wanting to say fight, cuz that meant no pulling punches and he didn't want anyone to get hurt, mostly Buffy, he couldn't believe that the teenager could take on Teal'c let alone Angel but he had seen the impossible before.
Buffy sensed his thoughts and rolled her eyes, she hated it when people underestimated her, though it did come handy against vamps too stupid to realise who she was, looking to Angel she shared a smirk with him before launching a punch at Teal'c without any warning, Teal'c while completely unaware managed to block the attack just in time however he didn't see Angels foot until it struck his midsection making him stumble back a few paces and letting go of Buffy's fist at the same time.
Buffy spun around Teal'c and tried to kick his legs out from under him, he managed to doge her and move to side missing Angel's fist which was heading for his head. Teal'c went after Buffy trying to fool her by faking a punch to her left while kicking her with his right leg, but she was fast and managed to doge then counter with a punch to his mid-section. Angel got behind the warrior and pinned him to his chest.
Teal'c then surprised both Angel and Buffy by flipping Angel over his back making the vampire lose his grip and letting Teal'c get in position to finish him, Angel was out of the fight. Just as Buffy was about to up the ante Jack called for a halt.
"Teal'c you ok there buddy" Buffy looked closely at the man and she saw he was sweating but didn't seem too be out of breath.
"I didn't think you would be going all out on each other" Sam said in awe at Buffy's ability.
"That is incorrect Major Carter, while I was not holding back, I could sense that they were." The three other SG1 members looked at Buffy and Angel in disbelief.
"I'm impressed, your right though but I was about to go all out before colonel downer over there got us to stop. You know not many vamps lasted that long against both me and Angel, I would like to do this again." Buffy was slightly sweating but other the that was unfazed from the little fight she just had.
"Indeed, as would I" Teal'c looked over at Angel and saw him checking Buffy over for any injuries.
Buffy looked up to see Angel checking her, then she began too do the same, the sword wound was now nothing but a faint scar and soon that would be gone to, nothing to show the horrible deed Buffy did to save their world, that didn't even acknowledge her sacrifice.
"I'm fine Buffy, and stop brooding that's my job."
"Angel you got a major wound a couple of day's ago I don't even know how your healing this fast, that time with Spike and that ritual took you weeks to recover.
"Yeah but then I was close to death and I hadn't been given any of your blood, I'm perfectly fine to spar." Angel saw that he was convincing her so he looked to Jack who gave him the go ahead to start fighting. Just like before there was no warning Angel struck out at Buffy who just smiled and caught him while delivering her own blow to him.
"You're gonna have to do better then that vampire" She said smirking.
"Whatever you say slayer" then they both stopped talking and the others watched in awe as the two lovers danced across the mats, soon the others in the gym stopped what they were doing and came to watch.
"Look they're both still smiling as if this is the best thing ever, yet they're dealing blows which would've taken me out ages ago." Sam whispered to Jack as Daniel just smiled.
"I forgot how powerful they are" This comment caused Jack, Sam and Teal'c to stare at him.
"You've seen a slayer in action before Daniel?" Jack asked but before he could get his answer Buffy flipped Angel to the ground straddled him and held a stake over his heart, where she got it from no one knew.
"I win" she whispered her eyes never leaving Angel's just as she was about to lean down for a kiss applause broke into their little world reminding them that they had an audience. Going bright red Buffy jumped to her feet then helped Angel up, but when she caught Sam's eye and the wink from Jack Buffy hid her face in Angel's chest while he tried not to laugh.
"What is going on in here" Hammond asked as he neared the sparing area, everyone quickly went back to what they were doing leaving SG1 with the new visitors to answer the commanding officer.
"Just doing what you ordered to sure, and may I say that they will be an excellent asset to the team"
"What do you mean?" Hammond asked getting suspicious.
"Sir what I believe Colonel O'Neill is trying to say is that Buffy and Angel will be very helpful in future missions with SG1." Sam said stepping forward.
"That's right who said we only had to have four members in a team"
"Surely you can't accept me to agree to let a seventeen year old girl join the team."
"Excuse me General Hammond but I believe we should ask Buffy and Angel what they intend to do as it's there lives I believe they should have first say on whether or not they want to become a part of the Stargate programme." He already knew that both of them would want to join as it seemed they were placed here to help them.
"Your right Doctor Jackson well have you made a decision?" The General asked the two warriors who looked at each other for a few minutes silently talking to each other. It was Angel who answered.
"We want to help, however there is one thing you must know. Buffy is not a weapon or tool for you to use without any consideration towards her feelings, if she gets hurt because someone does something foolish like sending her alone to a extremely dangerous place or doubts her abilities then I won't be hold responsible for my actions." Angel emphasised his point by letting his face change for a couple of seconds, but everyone got the point.
"Right well then I guess I should say welcome to the team" O'Neill said clapping his hands together all the while hoping he never got on the vampires bad side.
A.N Extremely sorry about the late update but I've been concentrating on another story but decided to have a little break and work on this one. Sorry if the sparring scenes aren't what you expected I can't really write a fighting scene but I tried my best. Anyway I hope you enjoyed this chapter.
