Like I have said before, stepping through the a event-horizon of a gate is often a dangerous proposition but one can adapt to most situations.  On this particular occasion I step though and find that big pissed off guy that I bonked over the head with a large rock some weeks back.  I can tell it is him because well other than similar shape and clothing of a Jaffa he has a nice big dent in his snake head helmet.  And he obviously was waiting here for me because up comes the staff weapon again and as fast as it will charge he fires in my direction while stepping backwards for cover.  

 I have my zat in hand and get off a couple shots in his direction as I dance through his weapons fire and roll to a stop behind the dialing device.  The stone floor is scortched by blast from his weapon.   Luckily, he is smart enough to not hit the console with a direct hit and maybe strand (me and) himself here.    I shout for him to hold off killing me for a few seconds so we can talk.  Suprisingly he stops shooting,  I am not about to show myself to him and end up with a fist sized hole burned through my midsection.  Cautiously I start a conversation with him.   

"OK .. so listen .. I'm sorry for hitting you in the head with that rock.  It wasn't an accident but I couldn't get to my pack with my zat'nik'tel .. forgive me?" 

 Two quick bolts from his staff weapon hit the floor near my right foot.  I scoot a little closer to the consol.   

"I take that as no .." 

In a very deep and gruff voice he replies, "Where have you taken the artifact you stole from my Master?"

"Artifact?" I reply.  Another blast from his staff weapon. 

"OK .. ok .. ok .. I vaguely remember some odd trinket that was just laying there covered in dust .. and .. I might be able to remember where I saw it last if you will stop trying to kill me ..."   

I hear the butt of his staff weapon tap the floor as these boys are trained to do.  His guard is monetarially down as he does this.  I spring up and fire as quickly as i can in his general direction.  Direct hit to the centre of his chest.  He falls like a sack of stones.   

"Too easy .. "  I say as i walk towards his prone body. 

I lift the tip of his heavy staff weapon with my toe and pick it up all the while keeping my zat pointed at his bulk.  I know he will not be out long.  I run back to the consol and kneel down behind it where i was a few moments ago and pry open the compartment with the crystals and control rods.  Inside is a neatly wrapped leather bundle.  I grab this quickly and stuff it in my tunic pocket.   I step around the consol and dial a friendly address and wait for the event-horizion to appear and walk towards it.  I pause for a moment and look at the Jaffa, he is starting to move a little so another shot from my zat should keep him out until I am gone.  He slumps as the purple bolt hits him across his broad shoulders.  As I step through the gate Idrop the staff weapon half in half out of the even horizion, making sure the pwer supply is on his side of the gate.   When i get through I look around at the peaceful wooded surroundings as I walk to the nearby  consol.  I push the center and the gate closes and the business end (half) of a staff weapon rolls down the steps.
