A/N: Thank you everyone for the great reviews, I appreciate them. They're
have been a couple questions about the couple situation in this fic. This
is mainly a Jesse/Emma fic, but there are some moments of Emma/Brennan. So
I hope you like this chapter, it's pretty much an action chapter. Please
R&R. Thanks

Chapter 3
It had taken a while for Brennan and Shalimar to get up, not just physically, but mentally. They're surprised at what they teammate as well as friend just did to them. Now Brennan and Shalimar stood standing watching the surgery go on as Adam fought more and more to save Jesse's life. But Jesse wasn't the only one of their minds, Emma was as well. Shalimar and Brennan continue to stand there thinking about what Emma meant by "To help another way". Brennan and Shalimar snapped back to reality when they saw Adam move out med lab. Shalimar leaped to right in front of Adam, when she landed, Adam jumped and grabbed his chest "Geeze Shalimar, would you please stop doing that" Brennan slowly followed after using his electric boost power to boost him over to Shalimar. They both stood there and looked into Adam's eyes; Brennan was the first to speak "Well Adam, how's Jesse?" Adam put his hand under his chin to support his head "Well the energy blast missed his spinal cord just barely, which means he won't be paralysed. But it did injure a lot of the muscle in his back. He should be fine, but the next 12 hours are critical for Jesse" Shalimar stared at Jesse through the transparent door, trying to stop herself from crying. Brennan put his arm around her and kissed her on the forehead and whispered into her ear "It's okay, he's going to make it". Adam looked puzzled "Where's Emma?" Shalimar looked at Adam "She said she's going "To Help another way"...WAIT!" Shalimar and Brennan both looked at each other and said "Ashlock" They both ran off towards the garage while Adam stood still in confusion.

Ashlock sat in Eckhart's office acting just like a little kid. Rolling the rolodex, spinning in his chair, he had nothing better to do. Then Ashlock just sat in the chair and looked at all the people below, replaying Jesse getting hit in the back over and over again in his mind, grinning at every time Jesse got nailed in the back with his energy ball. Ashlock continued to sit there with a grin when the whole place started to shake, knocking stuff off his desk, books falling off the shelve. Ashlock looked around "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!?!?" as soon as he sat there, the door flew open, there stood Emma in the doorway staring at Ashlock, her cold eyes stared into his. Ashlock looked at Emma at amazement for a second, and then grinned again at her face. "Wow, I really didn't know." suddenly Ashlock flew against the wall and remained pinned against the wall. Emma continued to walk closer and closer to him, the pressure increasing on Ashlock's body as he continued to be pinned against the wall by the young Psionic. Emma looked straight into his eyes "I don't give a damn about what you have to say" Ashlock's eyes widened with surprise.
"What did Jesse have to say when you hit him in the back? HUH?!??!" she whipped another telekinetic blast at him causing him to scream. Ashlock grew tired of what was going on. Ashlock flung Emma into the wall across from him causing Emma to lose her telekinetic grip on Ashlock. Ashlock started walking towards Emma, he slowly started to clap at her performance "Wow Emma, I really didn't know you had it in you, you were always the quiet and sensitive one, never the full force" Emma flipped her head up to look at Ashlock "Well there's a lot you don't know about me" suddenly Emma's eyes went black sending a Psionic wave knocking Ashlock threw the glass window to wear the pods sat. Emma looked at the fallen Ashlock below, all her motions in full swing, her powers growing more and more out of control as time increases. Ashlock slowly started to get up from where he had fallen, he sat up and stared at the young Psionic that stood in the place where the window use to be. She glared at him in anger and disgust; she backed up 2 steps and one second she leaped from the office window to right in front of Ashlock.
Ashlock continued to try and pull himself up, now Ashlock was on all fours. Emma stared at the pitiful man that tried to pull himself up but failed each time. Emma walked up to Ashlock and took one kick to his ribs causing him to roll on the ground holding his chest. Emma walked up to Ashlock once again "I am going to make you pay for what you did Jesse" Ashlock looked into her eyes, he knew she wasn't joking; he had to do something now and something quick. Ashlock hid his left arm from Emma as he slowly charged another energy ball, he spun around and whipped at Emma, Emma tried her best to cause a telekinetic energy barrier around her, but it was too late, the energy knocked Emma across the room into a pillar that appeared to hold up the second floor walkway. Brennan and Shalimar arrived in Eckhart's office; they looked at all the glass from the window and all the fallen books. Brennan and Shalimar slowly walked towards the window where they saw Emma on one side, and Ashlock on the other, both slowly pulling each other up to go on for more. Shalimar looked at Brennan "Let's go" Brennan held his arm out in front of Shal. "No, don't, Emma wants to do this, she'll do it" Shalimar looked at Brennan with a 'Are you crazy?' look on her face.
Emma and Ashlock both rose to their feet at the same time ready for more. A pink orb appeared at the middle of Emma's forehead while Ashlock charged up another energy ball. They both fired at the same time. The orb and energy ball collided causing a wave of energy to send both flying into opposite walls both refusing to give up. Both no longer having energy to fight, but refuse to go down. Shalimar and Brennan looked in amazement at the battle that Emma had put up, everything ran through their minds, not knowing she was this powerful, she could have killed them all in their sleep if she liked. Shalimar looked at Brennan "Brennan, we have to stop this before they kill each other" Brennan looked at Shalimar, then back at the battlefield below "Okay, if we are, we better do it now while they're both still down" Shalimar nodded and both of them jumped from the window, Shalimar in the centre of the room watching Ashlock and Brennan jumping towards Emma. Brennan picked up Emma "Brennan! Let me go!" Brennan continued to walk "BRENNAN! NOW!" as her voice echoed, Genomex started to shake again, both Brennan and Shalimar looked at Emma in surprise.
Brennan continued to walk as Shalimar slowly followed keeping her eyes on Ashlock "Emma, calm down, we're leaving, and your coming with us" Emma glared at Brennan once again and a pink orbed emerged from her forehead and fired at Brennan causing him to drop Emma and being knocked into a wall. Shalimar rush to Brennan and looked at Emma, Emma was charged up for another fight "Shalimar, do not try and stop me, I am going to finish this" Shalimar looked at Emma, and her eyes slowly went orange "Emma, I'm sorry, I can't let you, you'll be killed in the process. I'm sorry Emma" Emma shot the psionic blast at Shalimar but she dodged it by an inch and ran up to Emma and took one swift punch to her stomach knocking the wind out of her causing her to fall on Shalimar's shoulder. She looked at Brennan "Ready to go?" Brennan looked at Shalimar in surprise at what she had just done. He nodded quickly hoping on to get hit himself. Shalimar and Brennan walked out of Genomex with Emma over one shoulder.
Well I hope you liked the chapter, the next chapter will be more angst and romance, trust me, it's already in the works.
