It was the sudden onslaught of snow that spurred Vala into one last burst of adrenaline fuelled action (if you can call it that), the icy flakes were almost like hail stones. That hybrid where they are neither hail nor snow but somewhere in between. They stung at her face as the wind whipped them into circles. Lying on the floor amidst an explosion of staff and zat blasts, not to mention the raging fires surrounding them, she had to do something. She couldn't just duck for cover and expect to walk out of this alive.
She only had one weapon though, the ribbon hand device. Getting that to work with its full force in her current state was probably a non-starter. She couldn't even see how many Jaffa there were, only the staff blasts that came from their general direction. The latest one having missed her by an inch, she stared at the charred hole in the ground by her hand for what seemed like minutes. It would only take one hit and it all would have been pointless. She wasn't going to lie here like a sitting chicken, and as much as she trusted the others to do their best, she hadn't really seen any of them in action. It wasn't like having Sam, Cam and Teal'c or even an older more savvy Daniel covering her back. Even Jamie's apparent but shocking transformation only served to confuse her.
Vala flipped her hand over in the building ice and directed her palm towards the onslaught of fire power, hoping to generate a blast that would knock at least a couple of them out. The resulting energy blast was much weaker than it could have been but never-the-less she managed to retaliate and hopefully it would disarm at least one of them. It was a bit like trying to shoot a water pistol at a fairground stall to be honest though, when everyone else was using water cannons.
