[b]Ba'al and Teal'c, Ha'tak, Over the continental USA, Arcadia-1[/b]

The conversation with Nova had gone relatively well, as far as Ba'al was concerned. Of course he appeared to be in a position of inferiority, but he had gotten a good read on the mans personality. That would help when he was planning, so that he could come up with a scheme to deal with him when the time came. For now Ba'al would play along, but he would not be in this position forever. that much he was sure of.

But once it had ended he hadn't returned home immediately. Instead he had ordered them off on a different course, heading off in America. He had his plans in place, and he wasn't yet ready to simply return home and make what preparations were needed to expand and conquer, whether it be this universe or another one.

Instead, he had set a course for the Alliance of Conquerors, his fleet still following and putting on quite the show of force as he made his way towards where they had reportedly set up shop. Nova did not dictate to Ba'al, and if Ba'al wished to talk to one of the other factions on this world then so be it. If Nova had a problem, he could destroy the Goa'uld fleet as he wished. But for now, nothing would stop the Supreme Commander. 

From his seat, he nodded to Teal'c. "Hail the Alliance and let them know that we're coming, and that I would like to chat. I'd hate to cause a battle on accident."

"Yes Lord Ba'al," Teal'c replied, turning to the radio and doing just that. Well, they would see how the Alliance reacted to the offer, and the incoming fleet that accompanied it.

[b]Saten Ruiko, Conablum Labs[/b]

With a wave back to Nova and a spring in her step, Ruiko would enter the portal along with the rest of her entourage. She had the crystal on hand, and she had mentally prepared herself for what she was about to do. She had never played diplomat before, and it would be an interesting experience to be sure. At least she had had the chance to practice with her powers, so she could defend herself if need be. 

"Alright, let's go," she said to her companions with a grin, and Banha led the way as he moved through the portal. She did likewise, fighting through the strange feelings that accompanied the transport, before they found themselves in front of the labs. That had been odd, but bearable. Now it was time to do the job that they had come here to do.

She looked around as she stepped forward, confident in herself and the guys with her. "So, I guess this is the part where we knock and see who answers," she noted aloud as she advanced towards the facility, looking the gate over for a way to get past. Time to do this.

[b]Ahsoka Tano, Eastgate City, Arcadia-2[/b] 

Ahsoka sighed to herself as she explored, a hand resting near her hip as her gaze scanned the city. She was currently exploring the city, learning more about it and seeking some place that she could attain more information on this world, among other things. 

The group had finally gotten the chance to settle down and relax and bit from their flight, and now that they had they could turn to important things. To Ahsoka, that meant figuring out how she had gotten here, how to get home, and how she might find Assaj again. She was sure that her companion was handling herself, to be fair, but the isolation was annoying. They worked much better as a pair. 

Nothing to be seen for the moment, she turned a corner and headed down another street. Sooner or later she would find something interesting, and then they could start getting places.
