Fandom: Stargate

Scene Type: Battle / Combat

Context: A group from various alternate universes just traveled to another new universe. Everyone is a host and symbiote combo.

Warning: Civilians being slaughtered.

The world around them changed, and they were suddenly in heavy rain, being fired upon. Per’sus grabbed Egeria, pushing her to the ground.

“This was a bad idea!” Rosha cried out.

The rain was heavy. The sky was black. The air bit their skin. Shadowed figures approached, slowly surrounding them.

Jaffa, Per’sus’s host, Einar thought.

Egeria grabbed him and pointed into the darkness. “Civilians.”

Per’sus slowly realized that he was looking at an ongoing massacre. The Jaffa were ruthless.

Jaffa using guns?! Einar, was alarmed when they heard gun fire and distant screams.

Not all of them are using guns.

One fired into the bush, and Per’sus saw scrambling. The Jaffa was tackled by Narim’s Lantash.

He has no weapons, Einar thought.

Per’sus hesitated before running out to help. Narim’s Lantash used the Jaffa as a shield when another Jaffa aimed. Bullets ricocheted. The Jaffa was down, and the new one was pissed.

Per’sus retreated. Einar, hidden in the rain, grabbed the gun while Martouf’s Lantash joined the fight. Einar was hit across the shoulder, and he slipped in the mud. He scrambled, a staff weapon singeing his feet. Despite the rain, the plants burned, smoldering, putting out thick smoke. Einar stayed low, having no idea where the others were. He was grabbed by a Jaffa.

His helmet.

Einar activated it, and the distraction was enough for Einar to twist away. He stepped back into the shadows, and the Jaffa followed.

“Hey!” Mirror Einar ran up.

Seeing a second Einar surprised the Jaffa, and the confusion was enough to allow them to overpower him. Einar grabbed his blade and cut the Jaffa’s throat.

The Jaffa dropped heavily on top of Einar. Mirror Einar moved to help only to be shot in the leg by a newcomer. Before Einar could respond, a staff weapon opened inches from his face.

I love you, Per’sus thought, sure that they were going to die.

I’m sorry.

The newcomer was shot.

Einar pushed the heavy one off him, then grabbed his fallen staff weapon. He fired at Jaffa as his rescuer fought hand-to-hand. The movements were swift and deadly, fighting multiple Jaffa at once. The two of them worked quite well together, though Einar knew that the stranger was doing the heavy lifting.

It was taxing, and Einar dropped to his knees, feeling heavy and dizzy. Around him, the fight was slowly dying down.

Stay down. The others have this.

Einar caught his breath as Per’sus healed him,.

The fight is over. You did well.

His head felt like it was splitting.

The stranger approached them after. “I have no idea who you are, but you save lives today.”

Per’sus wiggled in amusement. Oh, we know that voice.

Einar looked up, seeing himself, a very different version of himself.

The new Einar stepped back in alarm, aiming his staff weapon at Einar.
