Title: unknown to them
Author: gothic-halls
Disclaimer: I don't own mutant x but I've asked Santa clause to get me them for Christmas.
Authors note: I thought of this idea a while a go but when I started writing it there were already some stories like it, so if there are any similarities they are purely coincidental.
There aren't any pairings yet but if you got any ideas I'd be happy to hear them.
And lastly I don't have a beta reader if there are any volunteers I'll love you forever.
It was a normal day in Genomex, as busy as usual. Agent Hanson was doing his normal rounds near the labs. Agent Hanson has been with the GSA for three years, Mr Eckhart gave him, what he thought was a great opportunity. He stopped at lab four; it was the most heavily secured labs in all of Genomex. He swiped his entrance card and walked in, what he saw was unexpected. The lab was trashed and the two restrainment chairs were broken.
"This is agent Hanson," he said into his radio "subjects 0.1 and 0.2 have escaped from lab four"
"Static ok we'll initiate a lock down if any one finds them catch them, don't let them leave the building, Eckhart wants them alive"
"Right" agent Hanson finished
He ran down the hallways looking for the two escapees, the halls were now crawling with other agents. He was about to follow them when he heard a noise down another corridor, so he went to investigate. The noise grew louder as he approached one of the interrogation rooms. He was just out side and about to open the door, when it was blasted open by a flash of electricity. He was about to move the door of off him when he felt a sudden weight on his chest; he looked up to see two blue feral eyes. Hanson was about to call for help when he felt a strong fist strike him. Just before he blacked he heard other agents coming down the hall and saw two people run through the wall.
"Oh come on Brennan "Shalimar taunted, "You're not scared to fight me are you?"
"Of course not" Brennan retorted "but considering you've beat me five times already today, and I'm pretty sure my ass is black and blue from falling on it"
Jesse and Emma were sitting nearby and were trying to stifle their laughter, but were failing miserably.
"He's got a point Shal" Emma said between giggles
"Yeah I've never seen Brennan on his ass that much" Jesse added bursting into laughter
"Thanks" Brennan said sarcastically
Shalimar laughed "come on someone spar with me, Jesse, Emma"
"No way Shal, I value my behind" Jesse said strongly shaking his head
"Same goes for me Shal" Emma asked, "why don't you fight a hologram"
"Cause" she complained, "they're getting sorta predictable"
"Well thanks"
They all turned to see Adam walk into the dojo with a slight smirk on his face
"Hey Adam, I didn't mean it that way" Shalimar replied with a smile
"That's ok, but I might have something for all of you to do. It seems that the GSA has had a bit of trouble, apparently two unknown new mutants escaped and caused a lot of damage in the process" Adam explained
"Ok, well what do want us to do" Emma asked, walking over to Adam to look at the information he had
"There are over fifty GSA agents scouring the city for these two new mutants" Adam started
"That's a lot for just two new mutants, is there anything else you know about them" Brennan asked
"No, that's what I need you to do, find them and why the GSA want them so bad" Adam finished
"No problem Adam" Shalimar replied as they headed towards the garage
"Yeah we'll bring 'em back safe and sound," Brennan added
Adam watched as his 'children' left, and as usual hoped they would be safe
A group of five agents arrived outside a cheap motel and walked into the lounge area. They walked up to the owner and the man in charge put his hand on his shoulder, and the owner crumpled unconscious on the floor. They had got a tip that the new mutants they were after, were spotted in this area, and were seen coming into this motel. While another agent checked the computer to see what room they were in, the rest sealed of the area.
"Mr Eckhart wants them captured in one piece so use the tranq guns you were issued." The agent Rodgers said to his men "make sure you aim for the neck, it's the quickest way to bring them down. Keep that in mind especially for 0.2"
The agent that was checking the computer came up to Rodgers with a room key. They made their way up to room 117, and knocked on the door. When they got no reply, they broke the door down.
"Mr Eckhart" Rodgers said into the phone "they left before we arrived, but I'm still not sure how they got the money"
"Well that's easy Mr Rodgers, they are smarter then we thought, they've pulled over a thousand dollars out of Genomex's privet funds, and who knows how much more they could get." came Eckharts angry voice through the phone "now I already know that mutant x know of to escaped new mutants and that's all I want them to know, understood. Or you'll end up like Mr Hanson. …………….."
he shoved the phone in his jacket pocket and relayed what Eckhart had said to the other agents, except the part about Hanson
Mutant x had been searching all day but they hadn't had much luck. It wasn't until around two o'clock in the afternoon that they got there first big break. They came across a black van that they recognised as one that belonged to Genomex. It was parked outside the front of a cheap motel.
"Maybe we should pay them a visit," Shalimar said looking hopeful from the passenger side of the black Subaru WRX
"Sounds good to me" Brennan replied pulling over "should we call Jess and Emma"
"Nah by the looks of it they haven't found anything but we could get some info out of 'em" Shalimar said as her eyes went feral
They both walked up to the group of agents and watched as one of them barked out orders as they made sure no one new they were there.
Brennan walked up to the man in charge and formed a tesla coil "I presume you're the one in charge, well I was wondering if I could trouble you for a little more information because your details we intercepted were a little vague"
"I don't think so," he said then motioned to the other agents
Shalimar jumped on three of the agents, while Brennan shot the other two with tesla coils. He just watched as Shalimar kick one in the head as the other two ran off.The two agents had disappeared and the other three were unconscious on the ground. They hadn't got any thing useful out of them it seems they were under strict orders not to say anything. But every now and then through out the fight Shalimar noticed how they seemed to shift towards the van, so being the feral that she is, she decided to investigate. While Brennan was talking to Adam, she went inside the van. There were a lot of computers and t.v's and on one of them was proxy blue.
The fire that raged through a local government building has been determined as arson, by environmentalists or something more strange, we'll tell you when we find out more."Hey what are you doing" Brennan said startling Shalimar
"I just thought I'd see if they had any useful information we could use" she replied going through one of the computer terminals "so I'm down loading everything and sending it to Adam."
Hearing a moan from one of the fallen agents they decided that they had better get going. They got back in the car and made there way back to sanctuary.
It had gotten late so Emma and Jesse also made their way back in the helix. They hadn't had any luck finding the two new mutants or even any of the GSA agents. Upon exiting the helix they were greeted by Shalimar and Brennan
"Hey how'd you guys go," Brennan asked as he placed a hand on Emma's shoulder
"Not good, there seems to be no sign of them, I don't even think the GSA had any luck" Jesse replied "how about you"
Over their comlinks could you all please come to the lab I've got something to show you
"I'll guess we'll find out"
It was late, about ten thirty, and he was getting tired, after running for two days who wouldn't be, except her, damn ferals he thought with a slight laugh.
"Would you like to stop, there's an old abandoned warehouse up ahead?" the younger of the two said
"Sure" since the beginning they had been close like brother and sister and now he felt like he had to protect her from the life they had before. Once they arrived at the warehouse they climbed up to the top and made themselves comfortable in one of the rooms. After eating some of the food they had bought they planned their next move
"How much money do we have left" the girl of around 16 asked
"About three hundred and fifty, we should get some more tomorrow" the 18 year old said
They sat in a silence that they had become so use to in their life of solitude, so it was quite unexpected when the silence was broken
"I want a name," the girl asked
"What" the boy was taken of guard
"I want you to give me a name I don't want to be called subject 0.2 anymore," she said calmly at first but then her voice quavered slightly
"Ok" he said unsurely but understandingly "um………………….. I got it how about Elliot"
She thought for a moment then a smile spread across her face that never failed to make him smile "I like it"
"What about me" he said excitedly
"Ok how about" she looked thoughtful for a few seconds "Matthew or matt for short"
"I like it" he said with a laugh "it's getting late, we should get some sleep, night Elliot"
"Night matt"
And for the first time in a long time they both fell a sleep happy.
They were all in the lab digesting the information that Adam had told them. "Are you sure they were cloned" Shalimar sounded shocked "do you know whose DNA Eckhart used"
"No but there's a DNA sample for both of them I'll do a search" Adam said replied going over the data
"Do you have a picture of them so we might know who we're looking for?" Brennan asked
"Not that I can find" he answered disappointed "but there is a physical description, and what abilities they have so that might make the DNA search easier. The first mutant, known as 0.1 male, around 18 has ashy blond hair, brown eyes, 6; 5 and has…" he paused and looked confused
"What is it Adam" Jesse asked concerned
"It says here he has two powers, that's not unusual, what is, is that they work in union. They blend together, usually two different powers must be used separately, if they try to use them together it causes too much stress on the mental and physical state. But this is different I'm not sure how powerful this could make them. Which means we should be extra careful when we find them?"
"They could feel very threatened, what if they don't trust us" Emma wondered
"We have to try and convince them, that's the best we can do" Adam replied
"What are his abilities and what about the other kid?" Brennan asked wanting to go help the young new mutants
"It says here he's an electrical elemental and a molecular." Adam read "As for the girl she's known as 0.2, female, around 16, light brown hair, green eyes, 5; 5 and she's a feral psionic. This should hopefully help us find them"
Before any one could say anything else an alarm went of in sanctuary. A warning came up on the console saying that the GSA was on to something. Without a second thought they ran towards the helix.
(Dream) she was five and alone in an empty room. The scary white man had come to talk to her; he put something on her head that made her itch. She knew what she had to do but she didn't like it. After a few minutes six men came in she new what they wanted, she didn't need to read them. She did the first thing that came to her head she jumped up on to the roof, but one of the men was a water elemental and she slipped from the ceiling. She new she had to use both her powers at once, the scary white man said she needed to learn to be use her special powers if she wanted to be a super hero, but she didn't want to be a super hero either did her new friend. The little sticky circles on her head started to tingle and everything rushed into her head, she stopped this easily, but pain ripped through her small body and mind, it stopped once she no longer went feral, but without using that she couldn't defend herself and the men started to attack her. She fell to the floor in pain. She didn't no what to do, she couldn't close her mind power because if she did she didn't no what they were gonna do, but if she didn't use her feral power she thought she was gonna die. The confusion was too much for her and she flew up and punched the one she knew was about to kick her. That's as far as she got as the pain sliced through her once more, she fell to the floor and rolled herself into the foetal position as hand and legs bombarded her small body. Her mind was reeling from their thoughts and the anger she felt at herself for not being able to stop it. The pain was too much and she started screaming. The pain started to numb. An odd pressure began to build inside her head and it bought her comfort. She screamed again but this time not in pain but in anger. The pressure built and she couldn't contain it any longer, she jumped up and screamed. Everything she had held on to, the pain, anger and hate just came pouring out. The men fell to the floor instantly. Thunder rolled in the distance as the feral released its hidden anger. She new she would never be normal and she would never be free of her pain.
Elliot shot up in her make shift bed. Nightmares were a new experience for her and she wasn't sure she liked them. She was about to lay back down when she heard a noise outside, she new it was the GSA by the lab smell. She crawled over to matt awoke him quickly. "Wha…"
"Shh" she placed her finger to her lips "we have to leave"
He got up quickly and they made their way towards the lower floor. They decide to go out a back window, but every where they went GSA agents were stationed every where. Matt turned to Elliot "you up for a little morning exercise". Elliot smiled and nodded.
She was the first to move as she sprung out the window, landed on one of the agents and knocked him out. Matt threw tesla coils as he weaved in, out and threw packing crates that where stacked around the old warehouse, he took out three agents, but they were replaced by seven more that came and surrounded him. Elliot came two his aid and sent five of them smashing into a wall with a psi-blast, while kicking two across the head knocking them out. They were being over run by GSA agents and where getting tired dodging blows and tranquilliser darts. Soon they where both knocked to the ground. Matt felt someone punch him in the stomach, he swiped out and tripped them over, but received a kick in the back. Suddenly a tesla was shot at the agents and sent them flying. he quickly got back to his feet, but some one pulled him to the side before he could get to Elliot.
"Are you ok" a middle aged man of about forty asked
"I have to help Elliot" matt tried to run but was stopped
"It's ok she'll be fine, but we have to get you to safety" Adam tried to take him towards the helix but he fazed right through Adam and ran towards the pile of agents he saw jump on Elliot. He saw four people fighting agents and suddenly heard Elliot cry out in pain. He ran towards the sound of her cry, when he reached where she was, she was just finishing of three agents.
"Hey you ok" matt said running up to her. She turned around to reveal blood shot eyes, and she looked about to collapse.
"They got me in the neck with this" Elliot replied holding out a dart
Matt ran to her side and helped her stand. "Come on we gotta get outta here" they started to walk away when the others ran up to them.
"Hey wait" Emma called to them "we are here to help you"
Matt's eyes turned an electric blue as he stood in front of Elliot. "Yeah, really, why should we trust you" he said defensively
"Because we're not with Genomex, and it's the truth" Brennen said creating a tesla coil in his hand.
"Matt" Elliot whispered.
Matt didn't hear her. "so what your not with Genomex, doesn't prove that we can trust you"
"Matt" Elliot said louder, looking really pale
"What"
"I need help" Elliot's eyes rolled into the back of her head and she collapsed.
Matt caught her before she hit the ground and laid her gently on the ground. Adam was knelling beside them. "Look if you will just trust us, we can take her and you to a safe place and I can help her"
Matt looked Adam in the eyes and nodded his head numbly, "yeah ok".
