Content: Only a last small step and all would have an end ...
John sat in silence.
how long he knew not, he had the sense of time lost.
hours and hours, he sat again on the chair and waited.
Waited for a movement of his opponent, on a concession, a sign that all this was about to pass on a way to escape somehow, or just on the final redemption. Occasionally it was
been possible for him to leave the room to get to fresh air, to converse with others, but these opportunities were now limited and strongly his counterpart left no doubt about his desperate situation to.
John knew him well enough now to know, that he had a sharp mind, possessed high intelligence and knew exactly how he was able to apply this most eloquent.
were occasionally asked him questions and they answered John, or silent.
He knew that his opponent knew the answers already, or could make his own thoughts on current issues.
A low growl ran through the silence and signaled John that he had eaten nothing for quite some time. But neither he nor his opponent, who had to have noticed it under warranty went into it.
But it was high time to get out of this situation, because his stomach pulled itself together almost painful. Also Water he had been a drunk for ages none more so that thirst and dehydration began to wear on its concentration.
The events of recent days also called their toll.
The constant training with the Marines, whether shooting or close combat training exercises, or exercises in the floor fight with Teyla and Ronon, which repeatedly showed their superiority and sent him more than once on the mat sapped him.
also had a seemingly harmless fact-finding mission to explore, with the goal of a seemingly uninhabited planet, become a pure disaster.
Very quickly we discovered there a small local folks, that initially very open and friendly to the team met before a reckless statement to a misunderstanding, then to a full-blown confrontation, a wild gunfight and a quick sprint to the Stargate developed.
Not that anything not already happened. In a strange galaxy was something already on the agenda.
But now John had to contend with the consequences. His limbs ached
, every move sent out a short and weak, but they can register pain shaft and he also felt as if they were heavy as lead.
His butt felt by the long seats already numb, so he had no choice other than a little in his chair and herzurücken, because you would not let him really get up and something could stretch your legs. On the other hand, John was not willing to show weakness.
It was dark, and John thought about how many the night he was sitting here already. There were three or four days and already had a full week passed, a whole month?
Time and again these meetings, always with these challenges, the wait for the next Train his opponent, an error which he could use to his advantage, salvation and deliverance through his friends and colleagues.
This and the uncertainty about the future so tugged on his nerves ... But
up?
No, never! This would not question for John. As long as there was hope out of this situation but to come out somehow, he would not give up. He would continue to fight.
Until the end.
But how long he was going on?
Gradually he believed to have reached its limits.
only a tiny possibility It had somehow a chance, make the whole to an end here, its force opposite to make a mistake.
John studied, observed, analyzed, pondered, and then ... yes!
Yes, there he was! John had to make only one step.
may exert just a little pressure and the whole thing would be over quickly, as expected.
"Now come on, McKay! We need to see that we move away slowly here. Also, I'm hungry, am tired and want to go to bed. "
" Yes yes yes, now you tell me not to rush, "said the scientist excited, but very concentrated.
John wondered what he was thinking there's great, but to his relief, he looked like being his plan.
moved with a huge grin lightened John then his queen on the board some fields diagonally forward and made the whole finally over.
"Checkmate!"
The End
