Harper POV

His arms were so good, so toned. His eyes were the most beautiful colour. Wait I shouldn't be thinking about this. I shook it off and looked over to him, I could only feel emotions through skin contact but I could turn it on and off and while I was killing people it was going to stay off.

He cocked his head at me while he sharpened his sword.

"Who is Ryan?" I froze and looked up at him.

"What?" I choked out.

"Ex-boyfriend? I don't know, you kept screaming for him while you were asleep." He voice was still slicked with Wade, but his eyes told a different story, worried?

"Um, no he was my brother." I said examining the Sais Stryker had given me.

"Was?"

"He was murdered." I kept thinking back to the memory. Cringing at the picture and thought, wishing the dreams would just go away.

"Oh." He said obviously not expecting that. I looked up to him, his face and he was looking at me. His eyes bore into mine, my heart fluttered. Harper stop it! He doesn't feel that way, and no you are not going to feel his emotions.

He smirked and looked back down to his weapons. I looked back up to see him smiling again, I loved his smile.

"How did it happen?" He asked. This was weird; Wade was never serious even around Stryker.

"Um these guys found out he and I were mutants. Ryan lied and said he was the only one so they killed him…he died saving me." I said in almost a whisper.

"So you ran?"

"Running easier, if I get close to people they die. When Ryan figured out I was an Omega-level mutant well mum and dad were already dead and we had no one." A tear slipped out my eye. Damn it, shouldn't have said anything to him about that.

Wade POV

I wasn't a compassionate person; I killed people for a living but she brought something else out of me. I just nodded, she was Omega? That is big, Stryker never told us that.

"So that means you are single?" I said going back to my old self.

"Nice moment ruined again." She laughed lightly. I smiled and waited for the helicopter to land. When it finally did I sprung up and saw Stryker. Ewe.

"Sir looking lovely as always."

"One day I will get rid of that mouth of yours Wade." He smiled. Harper followed behind me, putting her Sais on her leg holster. God she had good legs, long, lean. She had a good everything now that I look at her. Her long brown hair and pale skin was beautiful, and those eyes. Damn those eyes.

"Hello Harper." Stryker smiled at her warmly. He had a soft spot for her and we all knew it. She jumped off the helicopter and stood by my side. She was about a head shorter than me when we were on even ground.

"Ten miles that way is a building and it contains a very important rock." He handed us a picture of the rock and pointed in the direction of the building.

"Why us two?" Harper asked. Good question.

"Because you with the elemental control, you have perfect cover in this area. And Wade I want you to keep her safe and infiltrate the building." He said.

"Be safe Harper, Wade keep her safe and you safe." He said getting into the helicopter and going away. I turned to her as she started to walk forward getting a good look at her arse.

"I know what you're doing." She said through her clenched jaw. I caught up to her and smiled.

"What I love your pants?" She punched me in the arm with a smile on her face. We walked for a moment of silence.

"How are we going to get there?" I whined. I didn't overly want to to walk ten miles. Harper smiled and her eyes lit as we were suddenly floating in the air. Well not floating, she had lifted up a flat rock and we were flying through the air.

"Clever…" I murmured. Her powers would have been limitless; she could control all four elements. Wow.

I sat down while she steered us toward the building. It was smaller than I expected, why keep a little rock in there?

HARPER POV

I set the rock down lightly because Wade kept asking if we were there yet. We were about five hundred meters away from the building.

"Why did you have to park so far away?" He squealed. I waved my hand as we started to walk up. I desperately wanted to get back to the facility we were staying in, I had kind of gotten used to them…even liked them.

A man stepped out with a gun and tried to shoot at me but missed, I giggled and pulled out my Sais running up to him and kicking him in the face. Yep out cold. We continued to walk to the building and when we arrived we saw it was tiny, like seriously this building was no high tech protection thing we thought it would be.

"Something isn't right…" I mumbled. Wade stepped in front of me protectively shielding me with his arm. It made me smile.

We didn't even have to kick open the door, we just walked in. It had one room, with a bed and a kitchen. I put my Sais back in my pocket and walked around the small house.

"There is nothing here Wade." I said. He continued to walk around as well, the old wooden floor creaked as we stepped lightly on it. The old carpet was torn near the bed. Wade kept jumping around.

"What are you doing?" I spat quietly.

"Listening." He jumped around again all over the room.

Thump! Wade smiled and pulled back the rug, a door. Clever.

I gave an exasperated sigh, OK that was smart, I would have never of thought of that. He opened it and before I knew it he was on the ground with blood pouring out his nose.

"Wade!" I screamed running over to him. I heard voices coming up from the door and grabbed his hand.

"C'mon we have to go!" I screamed.

"We can't just abandon the mission!" He yelled as I tried to pull him up.

"Wade I can feel the vibrations on the ground. There are way too many to fight, we will come back!" I screamed. Another man came up and went for Wade; I jumped in front of him and stabbed him in the chest with my Sais.

"Please Wade, let's go!" I looked into his eyes. I could feel more men coming, way too many to fight. Most would be mutants; I could feel the weight of half of them on the ground below. He nodded and grabbed my hand as we ran out the door. I stopped and turned around my eyes started to glow and the earth moves. Rock started to surround the house. That should give us some time, the rock wouldn't have even been in there, and I would have known if it was.

I was running hard just behind Wade when I felt a sharp pain in my abdomen. I hit the ground and bumped my head feeling my stomach and moving it closer to my face. Blood, shit I had been shot.

Wade turned around to see where I was when he saw me on the ground.

"Harper! Shit, Harper!" He ran over to me and picked me up when he saw the blood. His eyes widened as he ran, faster than I had ever seen him run. My world started going black as he kept shaking me.

"Stay awake Harper, you got to stay awake." He kept saying to me. I tried desperately to keep my eyes open. He looked scared; I had never seen him look like that.

Before I knew it my world had gone black.
