"I can't shake your pain…"

            "What is it?" Adam asks, sitting down outside of the containment field that holds Brennan's brother. 

            "I can't find him…" Britt's blue eyes are crazed slightly.  "I can't feel him at all…"

            "You're in containment.  You can't use your powers while you're inside the force field."  Adam replies.  He stares at Britt, his face blank.

            Britt looks at Adam, tears in his eyes.  "You think I don't know how evil I am?  You think I have no morals?  No conscience?"

            Adam is silent.

            Britt crouches on the edge of the invisible wall separating him from Adam.  "Brennan is my twin brother…he has always come through for me…he saved me from that hell in the compound…he gave up his sanity for me…you must think I'm soulless for what I've done…"

            Adam sits quietly, watching Britt.

            "She doesn't have my daughter…she was going to destroy everything that I've worked so hard to build…my career…my family…my life…I couldn't let that happen…Chelsea…she said that no one would get hurt…I figured Brennan…he wouldn't…" Britt's emotion takes his voice.

            "You thought Brennan wouldn't be using his powers so Chelsea could borrow them?  Tell me something, Britt, why did you stunt Brennan's powers?"  Adam speaks for the first time.

            "To save him…the mutations were killing him…" Britt replies, flushed.

            "If you had let his body take care of itself he would have matured just like you.  He would be complete and healthy with the multi-mutations.  Why did you do that to him?"  Adam asks, his face still unreadable.

            Britt turns away, holding his head.  "Brennan…I'm so sorry…"

            "Where is Chelsea?"  Adam asks.

            "Brennan has always been better…in the compound, everyone turned to him for help, they loved him…he was the one who came up with the plan to escape…I was always second-best…he…" Britt says, crying.  "He doesn't deserve all this…"

            "All what?  He doesn't deserve what, Britt?"  Adam asks.

            "This!"  Britt waves his hands around, indicating Sanctuary.  "Mutant X, all this, he doesn't deserve it!  I have all the powers, all the education, but it's Brennan that is here!  It's not fair!"  Britt yells.

            Adam walks out of the room without speaking. 

            "Adam!  Wait!"  Britt yells.

            Jesse meets Adam on the way to the lab.

            "Adam?  What's wrong, what did he say?"  Jesse asks, seeing the expression on his leader's face. 

            "I…did you find Chelsea?"  Adam asks, unable to discuss Britt's outbursts.

            "We found an address.  Adam…" Jesse starts, concerned.

            "Britt…he's Brennan's brother.  If he wasn't Brennan's brother then there are lots of things that I would say…but he's Brennan's brother.  Keep reminding me of that, Jesse," Adam says, quietly.
