The elevator doors opened and SG-1, General Hammond and Cassandra all came out. Cassie spotted Rupert Giles and before her escort could stop her ran to him.
Giles suddenly found himself holding a crying teenager. He held her as she lost her composure and cried her heart out. He looked over her head and glared at SG-1. What had they done to cause this. He would make them pay if they had hurt Cassandra. "Easy child, I am here and so is the rest of your family, you are safe. No one will hurt you while we live."
Jack stiffened as he heard that. He had heard the comments that their visitor had snarked. He did not like it at all. Who the hell were these people? He wanted to shoot them all. How dare they threaten his base and people. He looked at the President and was wondering if he had somehow been compromised. His hand shifted to his gun. He pulled it as he heard the comment about killing them all and pointed it at Giles.
"Let her go. Cassie step away from him now."
Giles saw the gun and spun Cassie around behind him. He would protect Janet's child with his life if need be.
As he did this Jack reacted certain that he was going to hurt a girl he consider family. He would not let this stranger use Cassie as a shield or hostage. His weapon had a hair trigger and he fired catching Giles in the left shoulder.
Buffy heard the gun and saw Giles bleeding. The slayer in her saw her mate being injured and bleeding. The bond registered his pain. She growled and sprung. No one hurt her mate and lived!
She knew he was alive but his pain would be avenged. They had come here in good faith and the government ambushed them again. Not this time. No one would hurt her family again. She knew this was a mistake.
Buffy glared at the president deciding to deal with him once she finished off the man who shot Giles. That was the last rational thought she had as she sprung at the man who shot Giles. The slayer wanted him to scream.
"Oh shit!" Xander said as he himself began to move. He spun to his left his supposed blind side and struck the airman who was covering in the neck. The man dropped like a stone grasping for breath. He swept up the weapon even as he glanced over and saw Faith tossing the man who had searched her into a wall. Play time was over. It was time to remind the government why they were called Slayers.
Xander saw the airmen aiming weapons at his friends and family. He saw red and locked and loaded.
Willow and Tara's eyes both bleed black as they were fired on. Oz had dove to his right to take the guards legs out from under him.
Dawn pulled a baton from pocket space and struck the guard watching her in the left knee. Xander winced as he heard a crunch.
Kate dove with her boss to cover the president drawing her weapon to face off the idiotic Air Force Colonel. She was shocked to see he was gasping for breath as Buffy had him by the throat his arm twisted behind his back.
He cried out as it popped. Kate heard a cry as he was jerked around and Buffy's hands were around his neck. She noticed then that each of Mr. Giles Team had shifted so they could take out the SF if needed. This careful move had been missed by the guards and even herself. Damn they are good. I never even noticed they moved to defensive positions. Shit, they are going to take the SGC out.
As Jack pulled his gun the other members of his team spun into action. Sam pulled a Zat and aimed it at a young man with blonde hair. She cried out as a foot connected with her wrist. Then a fist hit her hard in the stomach. She doubled over and as she feel she saw an angry red head pulling a blade. Before she could fight back it was at her throat. Vi said angrily. "No one points a weapon at My mate."
She could not move because if she did the red head would slit her throat. She froze clearly she was out of the fight and in less than a minute.
Jonathan was only slightly calmer than his friends he knew this could escalate quickly and become deadly. One of the things he had learned in the last year was that someone had to keep a cool head. Oddly enough it was often his and the body guards that had to do that. He looked over at Vi who nodded clearly having her target under control. She was pissed about Andrew being almost shot but, she held it together. One problem dealt with.
He then looked around for others as he debated his options. The look on Tara and Willow's faces did not bode well for the Air Force. He swallowed hard and prayed he was doing the right thing. With a wave of his hand he said. "Freeze."
He knew it would only hold Willow for a moment but, with luck it would be enough for her or Tara to regain control. They so did not need Darth Willow. He knew it would only work because neither would expect him to try to stop them. Sometimes you just needed a second to calm down. Lord knows it would only take that for Willow to kill everyone here and he did not want that. She was better than that. Plus, her guilt would consume her. She had enough dealing with her feelings about killing Warren. Not that Jonathan blamed her. Hell he would have killed him too.
Andrew fell to the ground and rolled. He heard what Jonathan said and had to agree that the slayers were pissed. He looked over and saw Xander slip the safety off the gun he held and aim it at the general. "Oh shit." Not just the slayers. If Xander lost it then so would everyone else. These Air Force people were going to get themselves killed. He thought they were the good guys but clearly they all gave in to the dark side.
Andrew swallowed hard he had to do this for all their sakes. Xander was the White Knight he could not kill in anger. He would never forgive himself and that would be bad. Decision made Andrew raised his hand and said. "Hot!" He watched as the weapon glowed red hot. he winced and said."Sorry Xander, had to be done."
Xander cursed and dropped the weapon shaking his hand. He glared at Andrew who said. "Xander we have to stay calm. Buffy is losing it. We have to stop this. Someone could get dead. We have to stop this from going to hell."
Xander glared but, knew Andrew and Jonathan were right. He looked over and moved to stop Faith as she pulled her knife. He was almost too late. "No Faith. Stop, we got this under control, there is no need to kill."
He caught her hand and their eyes locked. Faith growled the slayer at the front. However, she recognized her bond-mate was safe. She pulled back shocked that she had almost killed a human again in anger. She swallowed hard. She knew deep down she would kill to keep Xander safe. In that instant she knew he was hers. The bond flared and the slayer wanted to kill to keep him safe. However, Xander had calmed down and sent that feeling to Faith. He would not let her kill in anger. "I love you." He whispered even as he turned to deal with the rest of the threats.
Faith nodded and looked around determined to cover her boy-toy's back. He was hers and anyone who wanted to hurt him would have to go through her. She tossed another airman aside into the wall. Only this time she tempered her power so not to hurt him to badly. He slumped out cold. No harm, no foul. She looked around to see Buffy holding the man who started all of this… However, she got what Buffy was feeling because she was also now bonded. She found she would not care if Buffy ripped the fools head off. Hopefully Giles could calm her down. Because if not then that guy had just made his last mistake.
Xander looked over to see Tara and Oz holding Willow whispering to her calming the darkness. He swallowed hard. Damn that was close.
He noted that Rona had shifted to guard the president and was watching Buffy. She was clearly ready to jump in and protect their Queen if needed. Her position gave her a clear view of everything even as she protected the man who got them into this mess in the first place. Why could they have not just flown Cassandra to Washington?
The Queen of the slayers had the Air Force officer by the neck as a large black man tried to grab her. She swung the officer around using his body as a club and hit the man in the gut. He dropped like a stone to his knees and was then hit with a size five shoe in the jaw. He hit the ground out cold.
Buffy spun around and said. "Everybody freeze or I will rip his head off. I am so not playing here people. I have had enough of this military bull shit. Stand down or we will destroy everyone on this base. Then I will level this mountain and make it a nice flat place to build a playground on."
The Air Force SF all froze as they noted that their commanding officer and second were being held by their guests. Daniel Jackson was holding his hands up as was the general because both were facing a girl holding a M-16 aimed at their head.
Daniel had tried to talk Dawn down. "Look calm down this is all a mistake really it is. We can work this out."
However, Dawn was not in the mood to do a kidnapping today. "Yeah, Like I believe that shit after he quick draw shot Giles. So not, I should shoot you both right now. I see now why Janet never told us about you idiots. She knew we would have to take you all out." She kicked back and nailed her guard with a spiked heel. He cried out and his grip on his weapon had loosened. Dawn was not as strong as a slayer but, she was fast she grabbed the weapon and used it to knock him out then spun around to hold off the general and the cute blonde guy. "If Giles is hurt bad or dies, I promise I will blow your head off. Believe me it will be a kindness because my sister she will do so much worse. She learned from a master at pain and suffering. Buffy would make you pray for death and then she would give it to you. I bet she would have Willow bring you back to do it again."
Daniel swallowed hard because he believed the girl would do it. She would shoot them. He looked over and saw Jack being handled like he was a puppet. Teal'c was out cold. Sam was pinned as well and the airmen were all out cold or nursing broken arms or legs. All were disarmed and it had all happened in less than five minutes. If these people were Goa'uld then the Earth was doomed. Damn Jack and his over reactions. He might just have gotten them and the president killed. He looked over at the General who seemed stunned.
Hammond had no idea how it had gotten so pear shaped. He looked around and realized his people were all down or worse. "Everyone stand down." He called out. However, his order had not been fast enough.
Colonel O'Neill had fired on their guests and all hell broke out. Even as he shouted the order it was too late. The others were moving and his people were taken down like they were rank armatures. He watched in shock as the women tossed their elite team around like dolls.
Teal'c master of the Jaffa fighting arts went down with two blows. The small blonde using O'Neill as a weapon. He feared for the president's life but, was shocked to see that he was protected by his secret service agents and the stray shots bounced off some sort of shield. O'Neill was being held by the blonde and he could tell that his Second was badly injured that pop sound was clearly a shoulder being ripped out of the socket and the sickening crack was an arm breaking. He swallowed hard and shouted again. "Stand down that is an order." He wondered if they would get out of this alive.
