Hmm.I've looked back (again, I know, just to refresh my memory of where I
wanted them to go) and saw how down in the dumps I was that last chapter.
Well, don't worry, I'll finish this story, never fear, and I'll have fun
with it throughout. Thank you Thank you! For all those encouraging
reviews.okay, I'm energized.here we go! Enjoy!~
Run! Bambambambambambam! There goes those guns. Shalimar smiled. This almost looks like we are shooting a movie.through the white snowy world with dark evergreen trees and a secret Russian base and two captured victims, running plus the guns. Focus! She willed herself. Focus!
She looked behind her. The guns had suddenly stopped. Weird.then she heard the helicopters. Though the trees are preventing them to land on top of the escapees, they still have powerful spotlights that can lead the ground force to locate them. Shalimar sighed. "I'm beginning to hate this pretty place!" She muttered. And began to run again.
Brennan was glad that he changed clothes. They were both warm and flexible. The adrenaline began pumping inside of him. He heard the guns stop and wondered if Shalimar got caught, then noticed the spotlights. He knew that they were reaching the end of the forest, but where to now?
*********Helix/Cabin*****************************************
They ran towards the helix but they didn't want the helix to be exposed and shot down. Though their connection was down, their power is still up and is in stealth mode.
Emma looked a Jesse. "We shouldn't fly."
"Your are right, otherwise, they would know of us."
"Seems to me that they already know of us."
"I mean."
"I know, as mutants."
"Yeah."
They passed the helix without even regarding it and double backed making a circle around the cabin. The tank was now at the front door. They heard a wincing crunch as the tank drove into the cabin. Emma and Jesse are now passing the back of the cabin. They were about to turn at the corner of the cabin when the tank burst through the back side of the cabin. Emma gasps. The tank just split the cabin into two and the sides of the cabin are going to fall and crumble down upon them. Jesse pulled Emma from the cabin and started running away from the cabin, not caring if the tank was behind them. Getting away from the collapsing cabin was all that matters right now.
"Jesse!"
He turned around and saw that the tank was beginning to fire upon them. Weird, he thought. That tank is capable of a higher advance of ammo than just plan bullets. No time to think about that, he thought. They began to run zig zag. Emma's breath is laboring and his was beginning to.
"We are going to expose of ourselves only when all hope is lost." Jesse whispered into Emma's ear. She nodded.
"Good. For now, lets keep the tank away from the helix and run towards that forest." Emma nodded.
"Here we go." And they exert a sprint towards the forest with the tank shooting behind them.
*********Forest/Base*******************************************
We should keep to the forest Brennan decided. No good going into the open. He started to run to his right. He could hear a helicopter above him. The spot light was on him. He started to run faster. No use. The spotlight was on to him like a mosquito to a human. Brennan didn't know what to do. He could hear the ground force coming towards the spotlight already. Should he just get captured without using his powers and lead them farther away from Shalimar? Or should he use his powers and get rid of this annoying helicopter and keep on running? In better times and in a better mood with Shalimar, he would have chosen the first. But it wasn't the better times and chose the latter.
He sent a shock up towards the spotlight and it went dead. He sent another shock to the tail of the helicopter in which stalled the engine. The pilot desperately tried to start it again but his efforts were useless and the helicopter began to fall. Brennan smiled and started to run again.
Shalimar knew that a helicopter was on to her. Right before the spotlight was on her, she quickly climbed the pine tree quietly and was still as the light passed over the tree. Couple of pine needles fell on her blond hair which helped camouflage the brightness of it. The helicopter stayed around her area, circling, puzzled at her disappearance and flew away. She sighed and climbed down slowly, quietly. She jumped down at the last few branches and dusted herself. She put her hands in her pockets, walking backwards circling around her and satisfied that she wasn't found, she began jogging.
"They are mutants." Kkrsnizqqta's walkie announced.
"So he was right." She replied smugly.
"Yes he was right. Part one of the game has been accomplished you can tell him."
"Yes sir."
"Good."
"Sir, what will you do about the fire?"
"Do nothing, unless it comes towards the base."
"Yes sir."
Brennan didn't notice the fire until he smelled it. He turned around his face in horror. The helicopter that he blasted crashed and blew up. He guessed that two to three liters of gasoline were stored inside it. Luckily, he ran a good distance from the site that he won't be affected much by the fire.
Where is the snow when you need it? Brennan thought. It had stopped snowing about ten minutes ago. He hadn't noticed it because he was dealing with the helicopter. He looked at the distant but close fire and assured himself that it wasn't going to overcome him unless he ran directly towards it. He nodded and started to run in the direction that he was going then stopped abruptly.
Shalimar! He thought.
Shalimar was jogging until her feral senses picked up a certain smell that made her body froze. Fire. She wasn't tired at all from the running and jogging but her breaths became quicker and labored. She willed herself to take a couple of steps but that was all. She was frozen by her mind. She didn't know how long she stayed there frozen and muscles tensed.
Then the actual fire came to view. Her mind started to warm up. She had to get away. She tried to keep her mind steady and at the matter at hand. But she couldn't. All she could think of was the redness of the fire.
She started to choke. She doubled over coughing. Both hands were now on the ground. Kneeling, she tucked her head close to her chest, coughing. In her mind, she could only see the fire, though her eyes were closed. Suddenly Ashlocke came to view. Shalimar forgot everything and lunged at him. She went through him. She turned her head back to look at him. He was smiling sedately like he knew something that she didn't. She didn't like that thought.
"Ashlocke." She growled. But there was a feeling of need in that voice that she couldn't help escape from her at the end.
Ashlocke tilted his head. "What Shalimar? You want me to save you? Why should I save you? The only way I will is to have you promise me that you will be mine forever."
"No!"
"That you will leave Mutant X and come with me."
"NO!"
"Why not? Your Brennan is in love with that whore, Kkrsnizqqta, in which both will be killed at a scheduled time and your other team mates are dead already."
"Jesse, Emma?"
"They are going to sign in at the hotel in Hell in about fifteen minutes or so."
"NO!"
"Yes! Shalimar, you cannot deny US any longer. It is destiny!" His voice grew passionate with lust.
"I choose my own destiny. And my destiny isn't with you!"
"It is with that player, Brennan?"
Shalimar didn't reply.
"Oh yes, he is smitten to every lady in the world other than you. And you know it!"
"Leave me alone."
"What to die?"
"Better to die than to be with you."
"I do think that you will change your mind in about ten minutes." Ashlocke whispered into her ear, and gave a peck on her cheek.
"Give me a call of my name and I'll be with you to take you to me, away from this pest called fire." Ashlocke said boring his deep brown eyes into hers with his hands on her cheeks. Then he disappeared.
"god dam you you.bastard." Shalimar muttered. Careful not to say his name. She heard him laugh distantly. Just say my name.his voice whispered around her. The fire had crept into a semi circle behind her while she was talking to Ashlocke.
Say my name.....It is destiny. For you to be with me. It is destiny.
Shalimar was now frozen again. Say his name dammit! Her mind shouted. Say his name and you will be free of this monster. Say his name and you won't die. Say his name!
But her heart battled willing to numb her mouth. But it was breaking fast. Brennan. it cried. I love you with my heard, but you break it every time. The faces of women came drifting into her mind in the fire in front of her that had slept with Brennan. The fire now was closing the circle that it formed around her and the snow that she was in. In about five minutes, the fire will melt the snow and will reach her.
Say my name....
Now how do you like that? R&R!
