Chapter 3

       "Shal, do u think Brennon did what they said he did?¿?" Emma asked.

       "No," after a small pause, "Do you?"

       "I don't know what to think I mean I know he hasn't since he joined Mutant X but he had a different life before this and you never know."

       Then Jesse walked in. "What are you gals talking about?" He asked looking at them from the kitchen.

       "Nothing." They both replied.

       "Really I thought I heard you talking about Brennon and his past I don't blame you I would like to know why he left here so quickly."

       "I'm sure he had a perfect reason and that he'll be back and fill us in." Shalimar said jumping to Brennon's defense.

       "Hey calm down, Shal I'm not saying he did anything I was just talking."

       "I know it's just that I… don't know it didn't feel right … the way you was talking about him it… I don't know anymore." She said in frustration then she let out a soft scream. "I just want to know that he's okay and nothing has happen to him." She quickly nodded to herself. " Yes that's it." She said almost talking to her self not the others. Those were known looking at her silently.

       Brennon loved the way that the wind blew threw his hair the way the bike made tight turns on a dime he loved ever thing right know and he couldn't tell you why… he sped past the mall and the police station and cruised threw a few red lights Ha no one and nothing can stop me... I'm kind of like the gingerbread man. Then as he cruised threw another red light he screamed at the top of his lungs "Ha ha ha you can catch me I'm the gingerbread man." As he was yelling that he never saw the motorcycle that pulled up beside him or the fist that hit him.

He lost control of the bike and it spun out from under him leaving him in mid-air the he fall and began to roll when he came to a stop he was on his stomach and bleeding from many different place's he groaned and began to pick himself up but once he had got on his hands and knees some one placed weight onto his back and it was all he could do to keep himself up led a lone fight the weight of the other person's foot in the small of his back. He gave up and felt the wind being taken out of him when the person send a kick to his stomach it was so hard it flipped him over and he landed on his back looking up at the person. All he could see was the bottom of the helmet of which he did have one on. The person placed their foot on his chest as they took off their helmet. He was shocked when long bright red hair fell down around the attacker shoulders. Then he recognized the women's figure.

"Hey I know you." He managed to say. The he had so much blood in his mouth that he had to turn his head to spit the blood out.

"Really I thought you'd be to drunk to recognize me but I guess I was wrong 'cause here we are and you know who I am."

"Well I don't really know you I just know your face and well I'll just shut-up I'm talking to much." Brennon said closing his mouth then opening once again yepping like a little dog that had been hit once again.

"Yes you do talk to much and it looks like you are hurt so maybe you should be quiet and listen to me and then you can decide if you want my help or not."

"Adam, I lost Brennon's signal." Emma said after she had been staring at a screen.

"Don't be to worried he could have just taken it off." He replied

"Or worse." Emma said looking back at the computer wishing the little black dot back on to the screen.
