The ring transporter activated with its usual speed and flash of light. Daniel assumed that it was with its usual flash of light as all he felt was the familiar tingle and the sudden disorientation that accompanied ring transport. Fortunately, past experience more than prepared him for the disorientation and his gun was in his hand before his eyes found a focal point.
Weapon drawn and at ready was a good thing because the focal point happened to be another set of eyes - clearly startled to see Daniel and the rest of his team standing there.
For what felt like an eternity but had to be no longer than a heartbeat the two groups stared at one another as if trying to determine what was going on. Each side armed - well mostly armed given Damon's complete lack of weaponry of any sort - simply having a good old fashioned stare down.
Some people would have called it comical.
"Drop your weapons!" One of the guards ordered.
That was right before each of their enemies weapons - a curious mixture of zat guns and pistols - flew out of their hands and skittered across the floor to land at the feet of Daniel's team.
Surprise colored the faces of the guards, and as one they turned and scrambled toward the large pedestal with an archway on it in the center of the - (control?) - room. Only one stayed behind, moving swiftly to the console. He - no she, Daniel realized as her cap fell off and dark chestnut hair spilled down her back - was intercepted by Damon who disappeared and reappeared as quick as Daniel could blink.
"I don't think so," Damon said. He waved a gun at the woman, who foolishly enough did not immediately back away.
"You can't kill me with that," she sneered.
Daniel flipped the safety on his sidearm. "No, but I can, with this. Now, back away from that console." His gaze flickered briefly to the men and women gathered near the platform, "All of you, back over here."
To Daniel's surprise, the woman almost seemed to wilt under his gaze. Then she motioned to the others who slowly made their way back across the room.
"Is it just me," someone asked quietly behind Daniel, "Or was that a little too easy?"
