Disclaimer: I don't any of these glorious characters of TV. Show Mutant X. No matter how much I want to! BOO! Hoo! Hoo!
Summary: my first story is about how even the dead can rise again and live on in the heart of others. Also, it's about how you can't trust what you see because it might not be true. Plus, love really can keep a person going. Oh, and if you've never seen Mutant x then this isn't the story for you.

Chapter 1 Disturbing Memories
12 Midnight –Sanctuary
The second I saw Emma's dead body coming past me on a gurney I couldn't take it. It should've been me, not her. Anyone but her. We just had our 3 year anniversary (I'm NOT good with dates! Just so you know.) No one even knew we had been dating not even Adam himself. Even now I can remember that day, since I never forgot ANYTHING that had to do with Emma.
"Hey hurry up slowpoke!" yelled Emma.
"Okay, okay! Geez Emma whats the rush?"
"Huh! Oh nothing." Emma said sweetly. It had been a nice day on their anniversary so we figured we'd go to the new amusement park that had just opened up. We had so much fun that day. I'll never forget it. Plus on the way back our hotel room we had to have 10 bellhops bring all our prizes up since we spent most of the time competing against each other, we played from hit the bottle to throwing darts. We still hadn't decided who had won. Plus, by now I had expected Adam to ruin our fun. Since Adam decided we could go out for the day he even did us the favor by getting two bedrooms in the best hotel there was in the city.
His exact words were "Go have some fun, if there is a problem I'll get the both of you."
Funny thing was when we got back to my hotel room I saw there were white rose petals covering the carpet leading up to my bed, and it was king sized if I might add.(okay so I'm a pervert! All my friends already know it. Plus the funny thing is I'm a girl!) So after seeing all this I know knew why Emma had been in such a rush. She had asked Adam to give us a day to ourselves and I doubted she told him why. Just then I turned around to see an innocent smile on Emma's face.
"So this is why you were in such a hurry this morning."
"Why is it giving you any ideas?"
"A couple." And with that we ended up having so much FUN we never actually needed the other room.
That was one of many memories that I have of Emma and I that I'll never forget, not for a million years.
5 am
Ever since the night of Emma's death I can never stop thinking of her. The woman who would laugh at all my jokes no matter how corny. And when I was in heat I couldn't keep my hands off of her. In fact we almost got a couple of times, thank god for Emma's abilities. Funny thing about Emma is that I wanted to marry her…………………………
But now…she's…gone.
"""Everyone might have accepted Lexa but I never will because I know she is just the woman who replaced my love."""
Ever since that night I've never been able to get much sleep, no matter how hard I try because I know in my heart it'll never be the same without Emma in my life. So I'll only be with her in my dreams until I can see her in the afterlife. Hopefully not so soon because I made a promise the day she died to save my life, to live it to it's fullest for the both of us.
7:30 AM
As Shalimar sat down for her morning milkshake Brennan came walking into the kitchen.
"Hey Shal," he said as he raided the frigerator. Today he was going to pick up some kids for the underground.
"Hey," replied Shalimar. It was never the same with two of Mutant X's members gone but most seemed to get over it.
"So where is Jess?"
"Oh. He's updating the computers for the year. It seems some viruses managed to slip past the firewalls," as Brennan was about to say something he saw a clock on the wall and said "Damn, I gotta go Shal. I have to go pick up some people, but I want to finish this conversation later. Kay?"
"Sure Brennan. Later," with that Brennan dashed out of the kitchen to complete a mission.
Shalimar sighed "I guess I'll go out for a while to keep my mind off of things."
12PM-out in the city
Still with nothing to do Shalimar figured she would just grab a bite to eat and head back to sanctuary. To bad she was so caught up in her thoughts that she didn't sense someone was watching her from close by.
As Shalimar sat down in a booth at Michelle's Diner she noticed a manila folder on her seat with her name on it. Once she looked inside it she noticed there were snapshots of a woman in the shadows behind her. Two things ran through her mind at that moment:
Why didn't I notice her before?
And
Why was she stalking me?
12:10-Elsewhere
"So has the folder been delivered?"
"Yes Mr. X. Just as you had ordered"
"Very good, Noah. Every things going according to plan."
''''we'll finally be able to draw out Emma DeLauro from hiding all thanks to Shalimar Fox.''''
Later that night-Sanctuary
Along with the photos there was a note saying:
Help! I never died!
Dfjksdfhgj dfhfkgjfgh jhprrhdfou hrfjklhgf chi hdfuhg pioughuoh fjklfhgj hdffm mdfjkfnhfjf gljkhfgj hfjfjfjfjfjff
E.D.
Strangely, most of the note was distorted so Shalimar couldn't understand it. But she did know that it was Emma from the initials and from the scent on the note.
""but how? She ……she's. …dead. ""
With that thought in mind Shalimar figured she shouldn't tell the guys about the folder, since they'd never believe her. So as Shalimar walked into the computer room (after hiding the folder of course) she noticed Jesse just sitting in front of the computer, not typing anything. But it wasn't this that caught her eye it was the headline in large bright letters.
"Hey Jesse, whats that?" Shalimar asked curiously.
"Huh? What!" It seemed Jesse was so absorbed in what he was reading that he didn't notice someone was even in the room. "Oh, its you Shalimar, its nothing!"
Sensing the fear rolling off of Jesse Shalimar decided to ask the dreaded question.
"Jesse, what were you just reading?" She was a bit ticked that Jesse would even try hiding something from her knowing that she was a feral and could sense his feelings and right now they were going from fear to upset.
Finally realizing that he could never get away with it Jesse decided to fess up.
"Well, I was reading a newspaper article and…I found out that Emma's grave was dug up and her body is missing," Jesse ended sadly.
"What! Why didn't you tell me sooner?" At that moment Shalimar realized the note must have been true and Emma really was………ALIVE!
"Well if you'd let me finish! I found out that her coffin was found a couple of miles away from the cemetery. Funny thing was, that's in the middle of a highway. Incidentally, that's very close by."
Before the last word was out of Jesse's mouth Shalimar had already left. She had to find Emma fast and before anyone got to her first because from the words in that note it seemed she was in big trouble.
Meanwhile Jesse was still wondering………
What the HELL was that all about!
4AM somewhere
As a person ran for her life she only cared about one thing. Getting the information that could change EVERYTHING over to a safe location.
But at that moment what she didn't know was that someone was right on her tail and she had enough problems with some goons on the way.
End Chapter 1 Disturbing Memories
Author: So with three different groups on the way to clash who will end up hurt or dead? Who was Emma dating! Shalimar, Brennan, or Jesse?
Oh! And I forgot to mention I haven't seen a TV show in about ……
Ohhhhh, 4 months! So the info might not be up to date. I've been damned to hell for 4 long backbreaking months without a single episode of my oh so favorite shows! Boo Hoo Hoo! I know it's sad because I also memorized the times and days that every show I've watched. Why? Cause I'm one of the worlds biggest former couch potatoes! But since then I've lost 5 pounds! Any way, please review. It took me awhile to write the first chapter because I have clubs and HUGE tests coming up and because I kept putting this off. But anyway, please tell me what you think and if all don't like it well screw you! But everyone's entitled to an opinion. I also welcome flames but you better expect one back.
