Chapter 64: Ch. 6
We talked into the night until I got my way and spent the night and the next day healing her while giving her magic and stamina to keep going. I'd have done it sooner but she was reluctant the first time. When I finally let her rest she was unable to walk or feel more than tingling all over and towards the end her mind shut down from to much pleasure stimulation.
Who said there was such a thing as too much of a good thing? I kept my word and took Lexi out on a date. We actually teleported to a Bon Jovi concert and partied with the band until they went on stage then continued the party after wards at a private club.
When I saw her having such a good time I couldn't resist holding her and telling her. "Stefan is immortal love. Once we get back to our reality and see the kids I'll pull him over for a get together."
She shivered and thanked me before going wild with the drinks. Halfway through the night she was dancing on the bar to wanted dead or alive. We had a blast and saw the band off before I teleported her to a motel and had my way with her. She wasn't fond of the sobriety spell but then I wasn't fond of one way drunk sex so when she was sober I took it slow at first.
Throughout the rest of the night and morning I had my fun until she lay panting on my chest. I rubbed her back saying. "You know I love you more than life itself right?"
She smiled. "I know.".
After she passed out I drifted off as well opting to simply turn my mind off for a wile and dream a human dream. Shit got weird so when I woke up to the knocking of the room service and found Lexi in the shower I sent the maid away with a tip and brought in the trays of food myself.
I grabbed a shower after she put as I didn't wish to be tempted when we have things needing to be done. When she finished her late lunch we teleported back to the base. There she went about learning and digesting the knowledge I'd gained from the ancient repository with the rest of my wives.
A new mission came up while they were busy so I took it with SG-1. We arrived on a planet full of burnt crystals. I hummed and told Carter. "The crystals were sentient at one time. They housed a soul at the very least, interesting."
She was stunned as was the rest of the team. Daniel asked. "What did you find?"
I pointed in the direction I felt the anomaly. "There's a couple survivors. One is dying while the other is fine."
I teleported to the dying one and picked up the crystal. It sparked at first as it tried to copy me. Smiling I healed the cracks in the crystal. It stopped sparking and instead glowed a bit. I smiled. "You're an interesting being. Do you breed or is it asexual reproduction?"
I felt it trying to answer and connected my mind the rest of the way. A cheerful voice spoke in my head. (Thank you! I was dying...)
I snorted. (Answer my question, do you breed or are you asexual because there is one other survivor and I really think I want to see-)
The crystal glowed a shy yellow collar. (We shine and share our energies but our kind cannot reproduce without this sand. Our sparks of consciousness clash when there is two or more and as it strikes the sand our young are created.)
I sighed and teleported with it to the other living crystal survivor. Jack was about to touch it. I slapped his hand away saying. "You're an idiot, do you touch all potential enemies like a child with new toys? If so, I'm amazed you've survived this long."
He grumbled. "You're carrying one for Christ sake!"
I snorted. "I'm an immortal deity, I can touch the surface of a star, do you want to try touching that too?"
He blanched as I set the crystal next to the last survivor. I backed up grabbing him and forcing him to do the same. When we were a few yards away I told the crystal before closing the link between us. (Show ma and I'll protect this planet permanently from the goa'uld that destroyed your people.)
It shined and the other responded. After a moment they began sparking together until the sparks clashed and spread hitting the sand in random places repeatedly. When they finished small crystals began forming where they struck. Several hundred at that. I spoke out loud. "Done, enjoy your protected status."
I made a seed of wander and withdrew a hundred black cubes turning them into naquadah gems. A sealing and hiding formation sprang forth as I effectively hid the planet from all ship's sensors. I tied it to the seed along with the sealing formation that kept the magic stuck on this one planet.
After that I told the team. "We're leaving. There's nothing of value here except the dead crystals. And those-"
I summoned them all into my ring before continuing. "-are with me for now. I'll give them to you when we get back to earth."
Daniel dialed up the gate and after they walked through I disconnected the wormhole before putting the gate and DHD inside my ring as well before teleporting next to the team in the SGC.
Sam asked. "What happened? Why didn't you come through with us?"
I chuckled. "I took the stargate so that no one could return and harm the indigenous again. The planet is hidden and there's no getting back to it unless your me or stronger than the barrier I placed over the planet that conceals it from radar and all advanced technology."
The team was both intrigued and confused. Jack asked. "Where can we get one of those?"
I shook my head. "No where. I won't make one for earth and even if you had enough naquadah and know how you'd never be able to make the barrier itself. You'd have to be a god or close to one in power. Only an ascended comes close and you're neither."
Sam led me to her lab storage where I piled up all the dead crystals but one. I kept it for my own study. It was a rare scientific way to house the soul, or more energy than most crystals in this universe. I didn't need it of course because I could do so with magic but I liked the symmetry and parallels to magic that this universe and indeed the energy it held, came up with.
After that they gave their report and I told the General exactly what I'd done. He asked about the gate I took and I shrugged. "I've no use for it but then neither do you. At least not yet anyway. But, if you're that determined I should warn you that activating two gates at the same time one planet is impossible. The older, original one will take priority while the new one simply wont work."
I turned to Sam. "Where do you want it? I took the DHD as well."
That was a surprise to them as they'd yet to actively search for their own. Carter has simply been to busy to start that search. The general spoke before her. "There's a banger above ground where we can store the things too big or to much in quantity that we retrieve from missions."
I sighed. "You mean our of sight where any idiot with a big enough wallet and access to vehicles can pay off the guards and shop for new toys? Gods you humans are slow. You're in charge of the base and it's personnel, anything beyond that and you can't stop it."
He blanched and I chuckled. "Tell you what, I'll make you a artificial dimension pouch. It can fit a small solar system inside. With it you can store anything not living. It has no air so anyone thinking of going inside will be dead before they get out. Well, unless you're wearing space suits, then I'm not entirely sure. I wonder if I throw some hapless humans inside with them- huh. Well things for later."
They got a bit antsy while Jack told the General. "He's got a point at least for the stargate anyway. If we leave it lying around well, you know what it's like, politics."
General Hammond nodded. "It would be much appreciated."
I snorted. "Couldn't cafe less about your appreciation. I just figured it would be less work for Sam later which means more time for us."
She smiled before saying. "Well actually I'd love to know how you create artificial dimensions."
I chuckled. "That sounds like a trade love. Though I should warn you, If you intend to try creating your own don't make them bigger than a galaxy. They tend to gain sentience and that's not a good thing. A sentient dimension is a pain in the ass to deal with. They tend to want to swallow the dimension that made them. And that way leads to agonizing death for mortals."
She nodded and I left there meeting with her before they were dismissed. When we went to her office I walked her through the process and when I finished I handed her the pouch. "Don't ever try going inside. If you want to know what it's like send someone else. I'd rather this entire galaxy die horribly than for you to be dead. Wives not included."
She took it and I transferred the stargate and DHD into it along with enough trinium to build her medical beds. The General has already agreed to my list of demands so there was no need to hold back. I'd effectively bought a compound and enough land in the exact location of where Sunnydale was built in my home dimension to rebuild the town and compound.
A little gesture to help the girls feel at home for a while at least. A token of familiarity in an otherwise unfamiliar world. I'd begin drawing up plans and alterations to the town itself. The compound itself would be transformed into a military base where with the General's approval and signed off by the president himself, the stargate program would be moved there.
Of course that included a deep underground bunker where the stargate itself would be housed and ran. The compound and indeed town would just be a secure base cover up for what was really going on down there. While the town itself would house the families of the on duty officers and those that fell in battle.
A sort of reward for their service, sign up for the post and get a free house in a safe neighborhood with free public schooling and education. Add the fact that should you fall in battle your family would be taken care of with the same benefits they had before you'd passed away.
I of course kept the Sunnydale picturesque tunnels that a herd of buffalo could run through safely. It was a surprise for the General when he asked about them that I mentioned the original town being built like that.
I of course explained that it wasn't put to good use by the good guys as it was originally a demon infested pit I'd excluded after I'd rebuilt the town there. He made sure to mention he'd be more than happy to use it as a way to keep the more sensitive stuff out of the public's eyes.
I added a few things that wasn't in either version of the original towns like magical and technological shock dampeners to prevent any collapses from earthquakes. It would of course cover up all of the shakes from the stargate being activated as well.
With some input from each of the base members and staff, I managed to finish the upgraded plans for the town by the time O'Neil got himself nanite infused and was fighting to not age at an accelerated rate.
It was Faith's turn on mission when it had happened and boy did I laugh my ass off when I saw him looking ancient. I had to cut my fun short because my fleet had finished being assembled but I would cherish the memory for a long time to come.
Faith of course pointed out how to fix it after that as she wanted to see the results as well before doing so. That marked the end of my lounging about in the SGC as I set up town and warded it from the ground up to prevent hostile or otherwise take overs.
After I made the town and the General got approval from the president himself the girls helped shift all of the base's personnel and materials to the new Sunnydale. Buffy was happy to see her old house once more as were all the girls because that's where we'd raised our children and had so many memories.
They knew of course that it wasn't the original but then neither was the one we'd left behind. The Sunnydale airport had become the Air Force's own private testing facility with their help.
I of course had already left after building the town in the middle of the night. I'd teleported to my throne room on Chulak where Illyria was beating the heck out of Spike for amusement. When I clapped she stopped, noticing my presence. "That's enough now kids, daddy's home and it's time to Star a galactic war."
Both she and nearly everyone taking part in watching the blood sport smiled. Hell, even Spike who'd spit out a mouth full of blood grinned. "About bloody time!"
Chuckling I asked. "How many Atlantis class city ships have been completed with the accompanying Aurora class war ships?"
Illyria tilted her head. "One city ship and seventeen war ships. We focused more on the war ships as the city ships can be built at our leisure."
I nodded. "Very well then. Bra'tac, you will lead ten of warships with Illyria against the goa'uld territories closest to us. Keep the other seven on standby in case the system lords intervene. Have them circling the territories while keeping an eye out for cloaked vessels and runners. Let no one escape. Give them a chance to surrender and join us. If they choose not to or try to flee, lay waist to their ships while Spike leads the ground troops through the stargate to their worlds below."
I turned to Spike. "Suppress and beat all who resist bloody. Deaths are aloud though leave the innocent alone. Warriors fall but do not kill civilians unless they choose to fight as well."
I watched them each grin in turn. Sighing I told them. "Show me what you're capable of and your rewards will be immeasurable."
Spoke asked. "Where will you be then?"
I chuckled. "I'll be slaughtering on the planet, trust me, you can't miss me. The single city ship will stay here and be used as docking and training grounds for the new recruits."
I stood up now. "Be sure to coordinate your attacks and illyria-"
The bluish green haired demon raised an eyebrow so I continued. "Be sure to gather up the essence and souls of those that die in space. I'll revive those on the planet as proof of my divinity to the masses but I do not need loyalists who serve the false gods so readily."
She grinned and nodded. "I shall turn them all into fuel to rise into my own godhood."
I chuckled and returned my gaze to Bra'tac. "You have your orders, begin!"
He saluted me before bowing and sweeping out. The territory in question that we laid waste to first belonged to a minor goa'uld called Zipacna. He had two hatak class mother ships and three worlds under his reign.
Over the course of an hour his defeat was complete. I spent three days proving my divinity with mass revivals and planetary changes, turning the three planets into paradises.
The surviving Jaffa and former human slaves fell in line to be turned and sent to Chulak where the city ship was for training. After sealing off all outside access to the new territory and Illyria finishing up absorbing the essence and souls of those killed on the mother ships, I helped her break down the souls into essence and assimilate it into her own.
It bolstered her control but little else as it wouldn't be noticeable until she became a god. From there we attacked a territory Apophis had once been at war with. It belonged to a system lord of some power, Heru'er.
Heru'er had a territory equaling that of my own if not a little larger. It was a bit tricky to attack his territory without letting out word of another race more advanced than the goa'uld attacking and taking their territory. I didn't feel like pretending to be a goa'uld so the simplest tactic worked best.
When we attacked I sealed off the planet and all forms of communication between the rest of the false gods subordinates and the rest of his territory. Like before we took it one world at a time over the coarse of a two months.
It was a slow process as I assimilated all of Heru'er's territory as we went. As time passed the army I have grew monstrous in size as I captured worlds. Most of the twenty worlds were abandoned resource mines except the five main worlds Heru'er used as his center of power.
The fleet itself nearly doubled as well over these two months while the ten thousand original warriors was more than a half a million strong now. The rest of the three hundred million population that encompasses my new territory as a whole were civilians and children.
There was plenty of food as most of the abandoned mining planets were turned into giant livestock breeding grounds. That added to the fact that every time I turned a planet into a paradise all the plants I grew were the fruit and vegetable kind.
When we finished off the last of Heru'er's territory and he died screaming in front of the masses like Apophis, I turned to Illyria who was happy she'd taken enough essence from the many ships we'd wiped out in space. I'd no use for anyone that was on them and I'd already warned the first Tok'ra to recall their people from Heru'er's territory as I was taking it on the first of his planet's I'd taken.
The Tok'ra, after seeing me shift into and out of my giant wolf form tearing apart the armies, had immediately sent out the message and they'd withdrew knowing I would've killed all that stayed and indeed I did.
Other than the few thousand I revived on the planets afterwards, hundreds of thousands died in space with Heru'er's fleet. Illyria has absorbed all of their souls and what essence she could snatch from their deaths.
I found it amusing at least that she was progressing so easily yet still required my help on occasion to break down the souls. I was about to declare war on Bastet and Kali's territory's when I heard a prayer that caught my attention.
It was Sam and she needed my help. Turning to Illyria I told her. "Take control and solidify my rule. Ensure peace in the territory and train the recruits. I'm needed elsewhere for now. When I get back we shall continue our war efforts until then have the ships cloak and watch for intruders. Deal with them as you see fit and be sure to have the wolves and vampires feed off the livestock planets."
At her nod I teleported away to where I felt Sam. I appeared in an icy cave before her and Jack who was wounded. I placed a hand on his wound and healed him while she smiled. "You came."
I nodded. "I will always answer your prayers Sam, always."
She smiled and I finished healing Jack. When he sat up I released the now healed wound. "There, you should be fine now."
I looked around and Sam asked. "Where are we?"
I smiled. "Earth. Antarctica to be exact. This is a second gate that must've been uncovered by the shifting glaciers. When you came through-"
She finished. "It shifted the connection to the primary gate. That's incredible! This must be the primary gate!"
I nodded and looked around before walking towards the covered and frozen DHD. Raising a hand flames shot out and melted the ice all around it revealing the DHD and a few frozen Jaffa.
I tossed the bodies aside and moved the DHD next to them. "That's all there is at this elevation. I'm sure there's more around here deep under the ice but for now that's all."
I stepped next to them and raised a hand. A barrier snapped around us and the alien technology and bodies. With a thought a giant beam of fire shot out of my hand, melting the ice and vaporizing it. The cavern collapsed as the ice turned into vapor. Soon we could see the sun.
When all the ice have vaporized or fell around us, revealing the chamber we were in, I let the magic go and told them. "You should be able to get a signal on your radios now."
They tried it out and indeed their radios worked. A few hours of waiting later the SGC had sent a rescue team along with a bunch of people to take over the site and search for more things hidden in the ice.
They'd found us having a bonfire while eating s'mores and pork kebabs while catching me up on what I'd missed out on. Apparently they'd destroyed an Asgard artifact called Thor's hammer and Heru'er arrived to take over said planet the artifact was protecting.
With some help from the Asgard Heru'er's forces were weakened. I told them I was dealing with a minor goa'uld ruled world at the time and had just captured and killed Heru'er and taken his territories.
They were stunned when I told them I'd yet to suffer a casualty throughout the whole exchange. They continued to tell me about a planet Daniel refers to as having the meaning of life stuff.
When I heard that it fell into the sea I snorted. "I can retrieve it. I'm interested in this so called meaning of life stuff. Besides, the sea is apart of nature and with a little effort and a ton of magic I can restore it all to perfect condition."
Next was Daniel's under water trip and their mind erasing experience. It hadn't worked on Buffy who'd been on mission with them so the fish man tried to keep her until she knocked him out and took them all back including the fish man.
I chuckled when I heard that and they continued their stories. Next was Hathor, a goa'uld Queen had tried to take over the base but was stunned and locked up by the wards I'd put into place. She was the sealed away under the general's orders and interrogated only by the female officers.
The scientists were learning a lot about goa'uld physiology from her. Then came Cassandra, a lone survivor and unexpected human bomb that Nirrti, a goa'uld system lord, had experimented on as a sort of booby trap for the SGC.
Then came Teal'c's trial for his crimes as Apophis's first prime by a race of primitive people. Sighing my only comment was. "Prey acting like they have the right to judge predators."
Sam had frowned at that and I explained. "The goa'uld are a predatory species. In the food chain they're a mix between prey and predator, much like humans. Where as the humans there are just prey. Weak, defenseless and scared. In the face of real strength they flee as several of the weaker ones are picked off. Hence prey."
Taking a minute I continued. "Now Jaffa or Teal'c's case anyway, he was alpha, leader of a pack and he chose which ones to pick off to thin the herd. A good alpha doesn't lead his pack to kill more than necessary so that there's prey for later. In the food chain he was above all but the goa'uld he served. Having cowards that fled to save their own skin while leaving those others to die judge you for letting them live instead is just wrong. In the end they're still prey, weak, defenseless and scared. They've no more a right to judge you than a gazelle has a right to judge a lion."
They didn't quite get it but they moved on to the Tollan. A race of advanced humans that refused to share their technology. I chuckled until Jack mentioned that one of them took an interest in Sam.
Growling I asked him. "Where might I find this Tollan?"
Sam snacked my arm saying. "You needn't worry I told him I was spoken for."
Smiling now I sighed as the rescue team showed up. I told them what I was up to including my intentions of declaring open war on two system lords when I got back. "It just seems quicker and once I seal off all communications between them and the other system lords there's no need to worry about word spreading of what I'm doing. Besides, I've the largest territory and my fleet has enough ships to take on a descent enough armada. Why hide it?"
Sam asked about the system lords in question and I told her about Bastet and Kali. How they worked as a duo to take out Sobek and took his territory, splitting it between them.
A stray thought hit me and I grinned. "I've an idea on how I intend to deal with the matter now. Since you're safe and you've found the second stargate might I suggest calibrating you're satellites to search for naquadah across your planet? It's not native to earth so any that you pick up will be alien technology."
Jack frowned. "We can do that?"
Sam smiled. "The naquadah gives of a trace amount of radiation that has a unique enough signature. This is perfect! We can find out what the goa'uld have left in our own back yard!"
I nodded. "Besides, it'll be able to tell you who if anyone is being possessed by goa'uld if you fine tune it enough. A good first warning if nothing else. Now, I really must be going, I've a war to declare and certain things to set up."
I kissed Sam deeply and unexpectedly by her reaction until she moaned and leaned into it as our tongues danced. When I released her while she panted I smiled saying. "You are mine."
She nodded absent minded while I teleported to where I finally sensed the goa'uld Osiris in it's stasis jar. After sifting through it's memories about all that had happened I killed it.
I then teleported back to my throne room on Chulak that I'd moved to the city ship I named Arcadia. There I saw Illyria giving orders for the recruit training and ship building. When she saw me she spoke. "We've received a message and captured a scout from the goa'uld system lords combined collective. Apparently Kali was able to deduce something was wrong when she came to raid a few of Heru'er's planets for naquadah and informed the other system lords of her findings."
I nodded and turned to the guards. LBring in the prisoners. I'll deal with them momentarily."
I reached for my magic and changed the runes on my war ships, making a solid illusion. They all, to the outward eye, turned into Hatak motherships and de-cloaked as I have the command. Even the city ships looked like super hatak motherships from the outside now.
The prisoners were brought in and forced to kneel before me. I used an illusion to flash my eyes and shift my voice. "You are in the presence before the great god Osiris! What gives you the right to enter my territory?"
The Jaffa and the lone goa'uld underlord stayed kneeling as the goa'uld spoke. "The system lords were not aware of your return to power my lord Osiris. They wish to know why you've attacked and taken over Heru'er's territory and what became of him."
I snorted. "He insulted me so I've dealt with him in an appropriate manner. I've been released by the bumbling fool Apophis and as such I rewarded him by killing him and seizing his territory."
I released the seal I had on his and all the goa'uld's minds about Apophis as I continued. "Tell the system lords that I have returned and as such I will be taking my place amongst them once more or they shall find out for themselves why Setesh had to conspire with Ra to be rid of me and seal me away!"
He stood and the Jaffa behind him went to stand as well until I snorted and asked Illyria. "How many does it take to send a message?"
She smirked. "One, my lord."
As if it were an amusing game she crushed both the Jaffa's heads as their bodies dropped to the floor while finding her own amusement in what I had planned. The the goa'uld underlord didn't even blink at the Jaffa's deaths.
He merely smiled and swept out with a few guards to lead him to the gate. I spread my plan to the rest of my council while Bra'tac asked. "If I may my god, why do wish to play these games as such?"
I chuckled. "Never be afraid to question me Bra'tac. I will never lie to my people. I wish to walk amongst these petty would be gods and use them as a wet stone to sharpen the Tau'ri blade. They have much potential as do the rest of the Jaffa and humans that have yet to reach great heights. Sharpening the Tau'ri will in turn sharpen and weed out the unworthy of the Jaffa under the goa'uld's reign."
He frowned. "To what purpose my lord?"
I sighed. "There are many enemies out there and while I can fight them all off and slaughter them myself, I find it amusing to see how fit you all are to survive it all."
I gave him images of the wraith and their abilities. The replicators both nanite and bug. And finally the Ori and their ships and armies. When I stopped with the visions I told him. "You've much more to improve on. Your eyes are red, so you must dig deep and meditate on what it means to be an alpha for you. While I am an alpha, I cannot be the alpha of your species as I am a god as well. You must lead and guide them as my first born."
He smiled and bowed. "Then I shall do as you command my god!"
I chuckled and watched him lead with his small pack of warriors. Turning to Spike I told him. "When I've secured my place amongst the system lords you will take charge of the territories and keeping people happy. Illyria will lead the war effort in my name with Bra'tac at her side. If any challenge my right to be amongst them then she will be the one to lay waist to their armies and seize their territory."
He looked relieved that he'd no longer be at her mercy while I told her. "Leave ten ships to patrol the territories while the rest will be used to conquer more territories and expand my influence in all directions. The illusions will stay in place even in the worst of the battles while they are already cloaked against the would be higher beings. Once I have most of the galaxy under my thumb we shall retire and begin our ascension. Until then you must continue to take in more essence as the more you have the easier your ascension will be."
She smiled. "Then I will be at every battle to take in as much essence and souls as they wish to sacrifice."
I chuckled. "Just be sure to report to me before you engage in battles. I need to know whom you're fighting before you do so. There are some I do not wish to harm as they are peaceful. As for the goa'uld, I'll tell you whom to engage in battle with."
A transmission came through an hour later from the collective system lords with the coordinates to the Hasara system. It was a star system that was once the home to a very advanced race that was once defeated and wiped out. They did however leave behind a mine field of unexploded space mines that homed in on goa'uld ships bigger than cargo size.
Smiling I teleported to my old goa'uld hatak class ship that had once been Apophis's mother ship. I gave the order and had it flown to the meeting place. There I took Illyria with me as my human lo'taur. She hid her inhuman appearance preferring to go as Fred.
There we greeted the council lead by Ba'al. When I saw them I sneered. "So it's true then, Ra is dead. Otherwise you would not have the guts to lead this council."
Ba'al smiled. "It is good to see you again-"
I snorted. "Whatever. I am here to stake my claim as a system lord. I've taken both Apophis's and Heru'er's territories and now hold a significant fleet of power at nearly two dozen hatak strong and over fifty habitable worlds."
The council grumbled before Ba'al asked. "And what do you give us in return for your return amongst us?"
I growled. "Life of course. I do not wage war against those that side with me. Those that choose otherwise will find themselves dead within a years time. Of this, I give my word. And I know you are remember how I keep my word. After all, I am responsible for your survival of Ra's wrath back then."
He sneered but nodded before saying. "Then we shall call a vote here and now. "
Ba'al smiled. "All those in favor of his return to this council?"
Each one it turn cast there vote until both Bastet and Kali voted against me there wasn't any others. Both of them simply replied. "You border our territory and expect us to be docile after destroying our ships?"
I chuckled. "I also gave you a warning. Now that I am amongst the system lords your time is limited. I'm sure Morrigan, Amaterasu and Olokun won't mind splitting your territories with me once you're gone."
They stilled and Ba'al chuckled. "It has been a long time old friend."
I sneered. "Clearly not long enough. You were supposed to wake me as soon as Ra turned his ire elsewhere. You cannot say he did not. Not with Sokar breathing down his neck."
The goa'uld in question was one of the few who held power outside of the system lords control. As he did not expand his territories wonton and preferred to torture and revile in the screams of those under his merciless hand. He stayed out of the politics while ruling his own corner of the galaxy.
When they brought out the goa'uld for consumption to call the meeting to a close I happily ate the snake alive to their amusement. I didn't put it out of it's misery until if simply died from the trauma of being eaten.
They each in turn looked at me while shivering at my cruelty. Illyria never lost her smile though, as my lo'taur she had no need to hide her amusement making the rest of the system lords assume she was as sick and twisted as I was. They looked at Bastet and Kali with pity now.
With the meeting coming to a close we left while receiving the jailing signals for the three goa'uld that wished to speak on splitting up Bastet and Kali's territory and what would be required of them.
I simply told them. "My ships will deal with them and I shall take half the population of each planet in their territories. The rest you may keep or trade back to me for naquadah and other such benefits. I simply have no wish to expand further in that direction."
They each in turn argued for more benefits until I scowled. Once they saw me becoming irritated they decided it was best to accept the benefits before I decided to change my mind.
