Consequences
Shalimar stepped out into the hallways and her eyes met Emma's. She could see the hurt and the pain in her eyes before she quickly walked away. Jesse had warned both Shalimar and Brennan that she had seen them together. Shalimar sighed. This had been what she was trying to prevent. Loosing another friend that she cared about. She had to talk to Emma, but first she had Adam's meeting.
She walked into the lab and sat down across from Brennan and next to Jesse. Proxy Blue came on the screen.
"The man that attacked Shalimar works with a group of mercenaries headed by a Walter Richardson. Walter Richardson spent five years as a SEAL, two as a marine, and ten as a mercenary. He is said to be one of the best in the business. He specializes in the destruction and murder of new mutant. Most likely because a new mutant escapes from the GSA and killed his wife. He has no known connections with Eckhart. He personally trains each man or woman that jions his team.
Oh, and one more thing. Instead of blaming Eckhart and the GSA for the mutant's escape, he blames Mutant X. "
Proxy's face disappeared from the screen and the team stayed silent. All gathering their thoughts. Adam was the first to speak.
" I ran both Shalimar's mother and my brother's DNA and found two people that match. Coincidentally they lived together and on the out side of town. I had a new mutant follow both of them. Yesterday around midnight my brother left teh building dressed all in black and a coat that covered his face with a hood. He met with Mr. Richardson. What was said in the meeting is not sure, but we are sure that something is going down and quickly. Now the question is what are we going to do?"
The team ran the calculations, the risks, and the plans through their heads. After a moment of thinking Shalimar looked up.
"I want to confront them."
All eyes turned to hers. so many emotions covered their faces.
"I wantto get this over with. I don't want to have to worry about someone trying to kill me while I am trying to shop. I want to be able to be able to hang around my friends and not worry about their safety because of me." She could tell from their faces that they weren't going to let her go. "Whether or not someone backs me up I AM going."
Brennan stood up and walked up behind her. He put his amrs around her shoulders. "Then I'm going with you." She nodded her head in acknowledgment.
Adam looked into her eyes. "Are you sure you want to do this?" She nodded once again. "Then that settles it."
Jesse and Emma stood up. Jesse walked over to Shalimar and gave her a hug. "I'll be in the parking lot ready to kill those people if they touch you." Shalimar laughed and looked over at Emma. Emma looked her in the eyes and then walked away. Brennan felt Shalimar stiffen beside him and his eyes followed to Emma's retreating form.
"I'll go talk to her." He said and started to walk away, but her hand on his arm stopped him.
"No, I will." She whispered before following the path her friend had just taken. She found her in the water garden starring at the wall. She sat down beside her and waited for Emma to say something. After a moment of waiting she became restless.
"I understand if you hate me Emma, but please just listen to what have to say."
Emma's angry eyes turned towards her. "There is nothing you can say Shal. You knew how I felt about him, and because of that you decided to take him from me."
Shalimar stood up lightning fast. "Is that what you think? That I am trying to take him away from you? Number one he was never yours to begin with, and.."
"That's because you stepped in before anything could happen." Emma interupted shooting to her feet to face Shalimar. "You just couldn't stand the fact that I may actaully have some happiness in life, could you?" Emma gave a choked laugh. "What a friend you are." She started to walk away but Shalimar's tearfilled voice stopped her.
" I am so sorry Emma, but I didn't do this to hurt you. I didn't want to tell you because I was afraid that you would jump to conclusions and hate me. But since you already do listen to me very closely. I love Brennan, and I am sorry that my love for him has stopped our friendship. I cannot believe that you would even think that I would try to hurt you this bad." Shalimar turned around, tears falling from her eyes, and walked away.
Brennan stayed in the shadows and watched Shalimar walk away. He eyes then turned back to Emma and watched and she fell to the floor in sobs. He closed his eyes at breathed in the pain surrounding him. He walked up behind Emma and laid a hand on her shoulder.
"Shalimar didn't want to tell you about us, because she didn't want to hurt you. You are the closests friend she has ever had." He grabbed her hands and helped her stand up. "I am sorry if I ever let you believe that there could be something besides friendship between us. Your a great friend Emma. I don't want to loose that."
"I know, I was just so hurt." She whispered. He pulled her into his embrace. She pulled away and looked him in the eye. "You had better not hurt her. If you will excuse me, I have a friend that I need to talk to." She walked away but stopped at in the doorway and turned back to him. "Thank you." She said before rushing to her friends side.
Brennan watched the retreating figure again.
"You really love her don't you?" A voice said from behind him. Brennan groaned. Great now he had to worry about the doting father. He turned to face his mentor.
"Yeah, I do." He clnched his hands, ready for whatever Adam could dish out.
"She made a good choice." Brennan stared at Adam's form in shock. He hadn't been prepared for that. He had been expecting a fight or yelling or anything but that. He gave Adam a goofy looking smile.
"She did, didn't she."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Emma walked into Shalimar's room and winced when she saw her best friend crying on the bed. Shalimar was the strongest of all of them, but Emma had always known that deep down Shalimar was just like them. She knelt down infront of her friends and laid a hand on her arm.
"You right." Emma said smiling and Shalimar when she looked up. "I do know better than to think that you would intentionally hurt me by going out with Brennan. I am so sorry for what I said."
Shalimar saw the honesty in her friends eyes. "Its ok. Just don't let it happen again." The laughed and turned towards the doors when they heard a sound. Shalimar smiled at Brennan and waved him in. He walked towards them and pulled both of them into a large group hug.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shalimar's stomach did flip-flop's as she waited outside of the apartment building that Adam had said to go to. She felt Brennan hand on her back and tey started walking. Something was telling her that this was not a good idea, but she ignored it. She was not about to stand around and wait until more people were hurt because of her. They stepped into the elevator and she leaned against Brennan. His arms came around her and he kissed her on the head. Her mind flashed to Adam. Before she had left she had given him a hug and told him that she loved him.
The elevator stopped and the doors opened. Shalimar jumped back towards Brennan as flames engulfed the surrounding area. Brennan tried to close the elevator, but it would not close. She looked back at Shalimar who had positioned herself in the corner of the elevator and was shaking in fear.
He walked over towards her and touched her face. "We have to go through it Shal. If we don't we will be stuck in here. The stairways are past the fire."
Shalimar violently shook her head. "I..I can't go through that." She whispered. Brennan's heart clinched and he kissed her. Hard and demanding. When he pulled away he grabbed her hand and took of towards the fire. Shalimar tried to yank her hand back but he tightened his grip and yanked her towards him. They got passed the fire and turned towards the door that had the room number they were looking for. Brennan glanced back at the fire. It was staying in front of the elevator, as if that was the only place it could go. He looked at Shalimar who sent him a murderous glance. He reached down and was suprised to find that the door was not locked. He opened it up and walked in.
Shalimar walked into the room. Memories of her past clouded her mind. The room was decorated in all darks, most likely the works of her mother. Her mother had always hated light colors. Shalimar had found that out the hard way, and after being punished she had never worn light colors in front of her mother again. Well, that was until now. She had deliberately worn a yellow shirt. She motioned for Brennan to checked the other side of the apartment, but he refused. Then she remembered that Adam had ordered that she not be alone at any point of being in this apartment.
They started walking down the hall. She tensed as her feral senses sensed a person behind them. She spun around but no one was there. She started back the way they came and suddenly someone grabbed her from behind and slammed her into the wall.
