Ok so after talking with Quest fro a while I decided to change the fic a
little. It isn't going to follow the challenge on Donna Lynn's website
exactly to a tee but it will be just as good. I am attempting to challenge
myself with this fic so be sire to let me know what you think.

Adam had begun to panic. It had been six hours since Brennan called in and said that he and Shalimar were returning to sanctuary and in that time they had lost contact with their comms which made tracing them impossible.
"Jesse any luck?" he asked
"No the last signal we got was when they were at the club then 10 minutes later it cuts out"
"Well then they would have had have been taken while at the club or at least outside it" added Emma
"Yeah but they could be anywhere now" replied Jesse
"Maybe some one at the club knows something"
"Alright you and Jesse go to the club and see if you can find any trace of Brennan and Shalimar" Adam said to the two remaining members of Mutant X
~~~
Brennan opened his eyes and felt the familiar sting of a sub dermal governor in his neck. Rolling over onto his back he looked at his surroundings and could only make out the dark outline of the room
"Try not to move too quickly" said a voice from the shadows
Looking over in the direction the voice came from "who is there?" weakly he asked
A young man stepped slowly out of the shadows "Adrian, my name is Adrian"
"Where are we?"
"Underground somewhere. I am not really sure where"
Looking around frantically for Shalimar Brennan sat up but was immediately overtaken by a wave of dizziness
"I told you not to move too quickly" Adrian repeated moving to help Brennan
Accepting the young man's help Brennan lay back down "there was someone with me. A woman she has blond hair"
"The women are kept separate" said another voice
"Why?"
"They don't want any of the men taking advantage of them before they can be sold"
"Huh? How long have you guys been here?"
"Two weeks" replied Adrian "They move every few weeks looking for new mutants and new buyers"
"What exactly are we going to be sold as?"
"Fighters and your female friend will be sold for copulation purposes"
Brennan just sat there speechless because of the level of shock he was in. After a moment he finally found his voice "Shalimar" he whispered
~~~
Shalimar woke up with a splitting headache. Once she felt the back of her neck she knew exactly why too. A sub dermal governor was firmly attached to her to neck and to top it off she was nauseous from the sedative. Hearing movement behind her she rolled over "who's there?" "Relax I am not going to hurt you" said a female voice
"Actually I was more afraid of me hurting you"
"Feisty you'll sell well"
Shalimar was about to rebut but she remembered what the men had said when they thought she was unconscious "who are you?"
"My name is Melissa and you are?"
"Shalimar, where are we?"
"Don't know when they move locations we are drugged and blindfolded" Melissa replied
"How long have you been here?"
"A week, they keep us well fed and healthy plus the men are separate because they don't want any of us damaged before we are sold"
"This is sick we need to get out of here"
"The only time we get out is when they take us to auction. If we aren't sold within 3 weeks of being taken we are killed"
"And Adam said this would be simple" she whispered to herself. "When do we go to auction?"
"Tomorrow"
"Great can't wait" sarcastically we replied
~~~
"Christina they have disappeared without a trace" Angrily said Adam to the computer "Somehow they are blocking our tracking signal so we don't know their location"
"Adam I am sorry we had no idea they had this level of technology"
"Why am I not surprised?"
"I will keep this investigation up on my end and should we find anything I will relay it to you immediately"
"I'm sure you will" he spat before cutting the link "Adam" called Jesse from the hall
"Jesse, Emma in the lab" he called to them hoping they found something "did you find anything?"
"No, people remember seeing them earlier in the night but after that nothing" replied Emma
"Any luck getting a telepathic hit off them?"
"No again" she replied
"Well there was this waitress who said she saw this girl hitting on Brennan"
"That is nothing new"
"No except she said the girl left the club and came back with three men pointed Brennan out and then left again" finished Jesse
"You think this girl is helping these men?" Adam asked intrigued
"Even if she is how would she know Brennan and Shalimar were new mutants?" asked Emma
"I wouldn't be surprised if she was a new mutant herself. I mean after all they have the technology to block our comms so...." He trailed off
"So our next step is to find this girl" Emma stated
Adam and Jesse nodded

TBC...well let me know what you think so far.
