December 12, 2006, 1300 Hours
Briefing Room, Level 27
Stargate Command

"...head out to your assigned planets and see if the Re'tu have arrived and if so elimate them. If they are yet to arrive, set up a defence and prepare for their arrival." Landry said to the group. "Any questions? okay, dismissed" he said as he walked into his office.

Colonel Ryan stood up "Captain Sanders, Doctor Honicott, and Doctor Hatfield meet in the ready room in 10 minutes." he said. They acknowledged him and walked out of the room. Shawn walked out of the room and headed towards the armory, he grabbed a G-36, TER, .45, and a couple of flash bang, smoke, and frag grenades. He also grabbed some other gear. Heading out of the armory Shawn walks to the elevator and hits the button for level 25. The elevator stops and Shawn walks to his room. On the table he grabs his Ancient Lifesigns Detector. Then he heads for the Ready Room.

Colonel Shawn Ryan walks into the ready room and waits for his team to arrive.

[Beatrice "Honey" Cutter]

10 minutes. Did he really say 10 minutes? Did they really say re tu? Her first time out and she has to face the spiders. Spiders have always been the thing Honey was most terrified of. In and effort to calm herself she goes over what she knows of the 2.5 meter tall green spider like alien. Okay maybe she needs to down play the fact that the spiders are 2.5 meters tall but on the other hand it is easier to shoot a big spider then a small spider. Ahhh yes projectiles just slow them down you need an energy weapon to really hurt them. She realizes the attendants in the armoury must see her as rude. She has not said one word to them spending too much time refreshing her memory. As she picks up a TER she finnally remembers the thing she has been trying to recall and groans. These 2.5 meter spiders are invisible.

Suddenly as if a switch has been turned Honey stands up straght. She know she has what it takes. She will let no one, especially herself talk her down. She heads with deternination towards the ready room. She is ready.

[Harmony "Harry" Sanders]

Harry was determined as she walked to the ready room.... she never thought she would be seeing some action this quickly after arriving but then when does anything go according to plan.
She had taken a full nine minutes to refresh her self with what they were facing whilst getting ready. taking a deep breath she stepped in to the ready room and looked at Colonel Ryan
"sir" she greeted before moving out of the way of the door.

[Chris Hatfield]

Chris quickly got up and ran down the hall the opposite way of Colonel Ryan to get to his office, which was in the room furthest room from the briefing room. Arriving with only six minutes to deadline Chris grabs his travel pack and heads for the Armory. Flashing his ID badge to the sergeant behind the desk he picks up a P90, Zat Gun, and a 9mm beretta, along with extra magazines for both. He then heads for the gateroom. Looking at his watch, as he approaches it he notices that he is a couple of minutes late, walking in he says, "Sorry, im late i know. Anything interesting happen while I was out?"

"Okay everyone, now that your all here" Shawn said to the team. "Remember, the Re'tu are invisible until discharging their weapons. Each of you make sure you have your TER out, they will make the Re'tu visible. Prepare to be under hostile fire once on Dakara, if the enemy is not there yet, we will set up defenses including TERs pointed at the gate." Shawn looked around the room. "Any questions? No? Okay lets go" The team gathered their last minute supplies and headed for the gateroom.

"...Chevron 6 encoding, Chevron 7 locked." said Sgt. Harriman over the gateroom speaker. The gate established a wormhole. "Okay guys, lets move out." Shawn said as he lifted his TER up in front of him and walked through the gate.
