"hello this is Jesse kilmartin what can I do for you?"

"this is Kingston hospital in London, England near Wimbledon and I am ringing to let you know that a miss Shalimar fox is here and is suffering from very bad injuries, "

"why have you called me?"

"because she has asked us to and you are her next of kin,"

"next of kin, so what happened?"

"sorry but I don't wish to tell you over the phone, would you be able to come over ,"

"sure but I will have to tell my wife,"

"ok, let us know soon, thank you"

Later that evening as Emma walked through the door after picking up their daughter she could feel that something was wrong with her husband and went to find him, she found him in the study just looking at old pictures of their once close team that was called mutant x. "what's wrong I could feel you as soon as I walked through the door," Jesse jumped because he hadn't heard his wife walk in the room let alone the house, "I thought you can't sense anymore, I thought you said your powers have gradually weakened since amedea,"

"yeah , they have but since this afternoon I think they are coming back, slowly but it still doesn't matter I could sense the coldness and pain as soon as I walked through the door even without my powers,"

"how?"

"just call it a wife's intuition,"

"oh, ok, shal's in hospital," with that he got up and left the room leaving Emma standing there and trying to get the information in to her head, the last she heard of Shalimar was her and Jesse were caught together having an affair, and emma was working really hard trying to pay the bills, (since Jesse had been made redundant from his old job.) and at the same time not getting too stressed because she was pregnant with their child, but the moment she had caught Jesse and Shalimar she felt her life spinning out of control and 2hours later she found herself in hospital being told she had a miscarriage. They separated for two years before they got back together and even now emma can't trust him, three months back together emma found out she was pregnant again and jesse had a steady job and Shalimar , well she hadn't contacted her since that night she was told she had a miscarriage, jesse was by her through the whole of the pregnancy luckily she wasn't under too much pressure and she gave birth to a very healthy baby girl who is now five years old.

"how do you know?" she asked as she stormed into the kitchen and stood right in front of where he was standing.

"the hospital called me earlier this morning and told me,"

"how did they get our number, the only way they could is if you are her next of….,"

By the look on his face she realized that she was heading in the right direction, she could now sense that their relationship had carried on after they separated and she Shalimar hadn't been told jesse and emma were now back together with a girl, "so are you going?"

"yes I am going , hope you don't mind,"

"I don't mind go," with that emma left the room and went to their ensuite bathroom, "come on emma, aren't you going to come down for dinner?"

"no , I'm not hungry, I will come down when I am,"

Emma wasn't talking to jesse at all that evening , he was leaving the house at 7AMto go to the airport and was leaving for England at 11AM and he was taking amedea with him so emma had time to herself, she couldn't believe that he was going , hadn't he learnt his lesson the last time shalimar was concerned at five am when the alarm went off emma woke up as well and got up, she decided she was going with him just so she can keep an eye on him, she couldn't let shalimar ruin their relationship again.

At the airport

"I'm so glad you decided to come,"

"I am glad I did as well," emma replied but was faking her smile, deep down she was still mad at shal as well as jesse, they boarded the plane and the whole flight to england was quiet and both emma and jesse never said a word to each other, when they landed emma went with amedea to get some food while jesse got the luggage, the two of them decided to get a taxi to Wimbledon jesse had called adam when they arrived in england and adam had organised some accommodation for them while they were in the country

adam had organised for jesse, emma and amedea to stay at his friends house in Wimbledon, they were a wealthy family and had two guest houses and they were allowed to have one of the guest houses to themselves, adam friend had a grand daughter who was going to take them around Wimbledon and to where the hospital was, she was only 14 and she was very responsible, she even offered to baby sit when ever they wanted to go out.

Adam's friend had kindly picked them up and he had brought his grand daughter Lucy with him, they took them from waterloo station to wimbledon, it was too late for them to visit Shalimar so Lucy took them out the next day to the shops at half past two they made their way to bus stop to catch the bus, they caught the bus to the hospital so they didn't have to pay loads for parking, she showed them the ward she was on and told them they could meet down there at 8 o'clock, because she had other things to do. emma and jesse made their way to the ward shalimar was on, emma couldn't believe she was so close to shalimar after all these years.

"hello we are here to see shalimar fox, is she alright,"

"yes she is alright she is just over their." a nurse was pointing over to a room and just as they were approaching it they saw the door open and a doctor came out holdong a little girls hand she must have been about five or six
