If anyone has any suggestions as to what I should do next they would be appreciated. Its not that I'm necessarily having a case of writers block its just that exams are coming up and much as I don't want I may not have enough time to update regularly, if at all. So any ides that can get me started on a quick chapter here and there would be great.
As always, thank you to those who have been reading and reviewing. I haven't gotten many reviews so I'm not sure if any of you out there like the story so far. (yes, I am attempting to get sympathy feedback.)
Anyhow, hope y'all enjoy.
Have a nice day

Mac ducked to the ground just in time to see a bolt of electricity go crackling over her head. It shot straight into the chest of the new mutant opposite and he flew backwards, rebounding off of a huge tree in the process. Mac and Alex winced at the sound of his head making contact with the trunk and then the ground.
This action seemed to set the spark to the gas and all of the new mutants, seeing their fallen comrade decided to all start fighting at once.
Mac executed a perfect back somersault out of the circle attracting the attention of five Links. They turned around to face her while the other five took on Alex. Punches were thrown, kicks were taken by both sides but Mac and Alex, powerful though they were, were nowhere near as technically skilled as Mutant X and the numbers game was starting to catch up with them. Mac took a right hook to the side of her head. It knocked her to the ground and then she remembered that she wasn't just feral. All the training that had been taking place in Sanctuary over the past couple of days had been feral or just plain martial arts stuff. She hadn't, as yet trained using her elemental, psionic or molecular powers.
The elemental stuff she had gotten a handle on pretty early on, and it was ditto for her psionic powers. But she had never learnt how to control her molecular thing. But right now she didn't need to. She didn't plan on taking the defensive position in this fight. She stood up and felt the energy racing through her veins. She raised her hand up to her eye level and recognized that familiar buzz as the energy, that was always inside of her came to the surface. The light blue electricity flickered across her entire hand. By then all of the new mutants in the clearing were watching her, including Alex. He had never seen her use any of her other powers and he was impressed.
The links started to make their move forward trying to stop her before she released the energy on them. But they were too late. The electricity flew from her hand and hit the chest of the new mutant who had punched her in the head seconds before. Then the sparks engulfed her hand and she swung at the two other new mutants, ferals that Alex had been fighting. They went flying through the air and hit the ground with plenty of force. Alex rugby tackled another new mutant to the ground and headbutted him, causing him to lose consciousness.
Alex and Mac looked at each other. They were both tired and needed to get to some sort of safety. They took off running into the cover of the trees again, hoping that their offense had stalled the links long enough for them to get far enough away.
They carried on running until they were forced to come to a complete stop. They had reached a river. A river that was at the bottom of a 40 foot drop. They turned to look into each others eyes and then whipped round as they heard the sound of branches cracking as the links ran to catch up with them.
There was only one thing for it, they thought as they took a hold of each others hand. They stepped back a couple of paces from the edge and then ran forward and with a loud cry they disappeared over the edge.

'Hey Adam,' called Jesse. 'I think I might have found something.'
They had been researching for a further half an hour and up till that point had turned up nothing new. Adam was beyond frustrated and even Shalimar was getting tired. When Jesse called Adam over a ripple of hope spread through the room, it was infectious. Everybody breathed in, waiting to see if Jesse had found anything worthwhile.
'Its a warehouse in the industrial district, just a couple of miles away from where we first went looking,' said Jesse tentatively. Everybody in the room was still holding their breath.
'I want you all to get in Helix now. We don't have a lot of time,' Adam said urgently.
Everybody stood up quickly. Shalimar was desperate to get out of Sanctuary. She had been stuck there for too long. Brennan was just happy to be getting some action and Emma was concerned about Sara. Jesse's first thought was what Maia was going to do. He knew she would want to help but wasn't sure if it was safe to take her with them. But then again, if Sara saw a familiar face maybe she would freak out a little less. He turned to Adam.
'Maia, if you're not too scared to go with them, I think Sara may need someone to get her out of there quickly,' said Adam.
Maia looked up and, after a seconds thought jumped off her seat and jogged out of the doorway to get some shoes on.
Jesse looked across at Adam with a smile and then followed.

Mac looked around her, her eyes burning a bright orange. Both her and Alex had landed safely but they now had to work out a direction to go in in the space of a few seconds, they couldn't afford any longer than that. She knew that the other ferals atleast would be able to drop the 40foot. And they would be pissed off. Her eyes flicked all around her trying to make out anyone who might have been standing in the trees around them, ready to ambush them at any point. She grabbed Alex's hand and they ran again.
Annie watched them from her vantage point in the trees. Mac may have been a pretty powerful feral but Annie had been one longer and knew exactly how to stop anyone from seeing, hearing or sensing her. She knew they were lost but this forest was only so big and after a while they had to come out somewhere. And when they did, they would lead her straight to Sanctuary. She took off, stealthily making her way after them.

Shalimar flipped the controls on the Helix and they went into stealth mode. They had only just flown out of the hangar in Sanctuary and Adam was downloading, from the computer in Sanctuary the coordinates of the warehouse. She flipped some more controls and the aircraft slowly swung round to face back over the cliffs and towards the city.
Maia had only been in Helix once and then she hadn't really been concentrating on its interior. She looked around her now, taking in everything she saw with wide eyes. It looked very clean but kind of dark. She couldn't explain it. There were lights on but the gleam that they emitted seemed to be absorbed into the walls. She liked it, it felt safe and secure. And Shalimar was a good pilot.
Brennan sat in the front of Helix with Shalimar. He looked across at her as she programmed in their destination and then switched the controls onto auto-pilot. She sat back, relaxing or trying to as she watched the world pass by below them. Suddenly her brow puckered and she leant forward in her seat.
'What's up?' he asked quietly, expecting her to brush him off, like she always did when anyway expressed concern.
Without saying a word she pushed the buttons on the control panel allowing herself to gain command of Helix once again.
'You all strapped in back there?' she asked the urgency in her voice making them all sit up.
'Why? What's going on?' asked Emma.
'We're making a quick stop. Anybody have a problem with that?'
They all shook their heads and she took them into a dive, straight towards the ground. Maia wasn't panicking, but she was close. She didn't mind planes but this was a whole other kind of plane. She knew Shalimar probably knew what she was doing but that didn't make it a whole lot better. It didn't change the fact that they were plummeting towards the earth.

Mac stopped and looked up in the middle of yet another clearing. Her feral hearing had picked up some buzzing. In the city that noise was not so unusual but in the middle of a forest... She wasn't sure what it was and she didn't really wanna wait to find out.
'What is it?' asked Alex from behind her. They had been running for five minutes after the drop off of the cliff. So far he couldn't pick up anyone following them, which could only be a good thing but he really didn't think they should be stopping to enjoy the view or listen to the sound of the birds in the trees and wait for the right direction to come along and jump up and down on top of them. They had to keep moving. And then he felt it, right in front of him. The grass moved as if being blown by a strong gust of wind and the leaves whispered all around them. He could feel his hair being blown lightly back from his face.
They both gasped in shock when they saw the Double Helix appear right in front of their eyes. The door opened and they saw Brennan and Maia both yelling at them to run.
Annie ran a little faster when she heard the voices of Mutant X. Either she had reached Sanctuary or Mutant X had showed up to help their little friends. She came out into the clearing as the Helix disappeared into thin air. She watched the patch of sky where it had previously been and then slammed her fist into the nearest tree. She couldn't believe she had lost both the teenagers and hadn't even found Sanctuary. Gabriel was going to be pissed she thought, dread building up in the pit of her stomach.
