Chapter 1
The private jet was a bit smaller than the helix, but no one seemed to care. Beaches, parties, and fun awaited them. They were flying for about two hours when Shalimar spoke up, "How much longer until we get there? I need to stretch. Why is this taking so long?" Shalimar got out of her seat and started to pace; she couldn't sit still for very long.
"We have another hour," Adam watched Shalimar walked back and forth. He wished she would sit down, but he didn't want her to feel trapped. So he said nothing as she roamed around the cabin.
"Who wants to go the beach as soon as we get there?" Jesse laughed as everyone shouted "I do!"
In the cockpit
The pilot was very pleased with himself; he would surely be promoted when Eckhart found out that he had single handedly killed all of Mutant X. After placing a little electrical device on the controls (the device would scramble up the controls so that nobody would be able to fly the plane), he strapped on a parachute and jumped out of the emergency exit. As soon as he was out of harms way, he pushed the button on the remote that he held.
Back in the jet
A loud shrill beeping came from the cockpit. Shalimar dropped to her knees, her hands pressed tightly against her head in order to block out the earsplitting sound. "Make it stop! My ear drums are going to burst!"
Emma ran into the cockpit despite the noise that came from it, "Uh guys, the pilot's gone." Her eyes fell on the circular device causing the noise, "Adam come look at this."
Adam ran into the cockpit, and immediately noticed the device, "We're going to crash. That device stops us from being able to use the controls. Get to your seats and put your belts on!"
Brennan had to help Shalimar up, and put her seatbelt on (her hands were still trying to block out the sound).
Looking out the window, Emma's eyes widened, "I sure hope the chances are better if we crash on land, because that's what we're going to hit."
Jesse could feel fear running through Emma's soul. He grabbed her hand, "We'll be okay. Just close your eyes. I won't let go of you."
The impact snapped the plane in half. The front half which included, the cockpit, Jesse and Emma, slid along the ground for a good mile and then smashed into a tree. The other half which was where Adam, Brennan and Shalimar were sitting rolled twenty feet and stopped upside down.
The front half of the plane
The force of the impact caused Jesse to let go of Emma's hand and threw him from his seat into the cockpit. Shakily he stood up, "Emma? Are you okay?" He looked where her seat was; the belt had broken off and she was no longer in it. *What if she was thrown from the plane? I have to find her.* Exiting the plane, he began to search for Emma.
One of the wings from the plane was lying on the ground. *Emma please don't be under that thing.* He tried to lift it up, but it weighed about three hundred pounds.
A soft moan came from the other side of the plane. Jesse ran towards the noise, and his heart almost stopped. Emma had been thrown from the wreckage, and a piece of the jet pinned her to the ground from her stomach down. "Oh my God! Emma!" This piece was much lighter, so he lifted it off with ease.
He sat down beside her and felt for a pulse, she had one but it was weak. There were cuts and bruises all over her face. "Emma, wake up," he grabbed her hand.
Emma's hand gently squeezed his and her eyes opened. "Jesse, where are we? Are the others okay?" She tried to get up, but Jesse stopped her.
"Let me make sure you didn't break anything first."
"My right side hurts, check that first."
"Okay." Jesse let go of her hand and carefully lifted her blood stained shirt. There was a deep cut in her side, blood seemed to ooze out of the wound. "This is not good. I'm going to try to stop the bleeding." He took off his shirt and ripped it into long strips. Then he began to tie them around her stomach; he made sure that it was tight enough to stop the bleeding.
"Ow, that hurts. Can't you loosen it a little?" Emma tried her best to hold back her tears; her side was killing her and the others could easily have died in the crash.
"No. You're bleeding right through my shirt. I'm going to push on you for five minutes to try and stop it okay?"
Emma nodded and winced as he gently, but firmly pushed on her side. "Do you think the others are okay?"
"I don't really know. As soon as the bleeding stops, we'll go search for them."
The back half of the plane
Adam, Brennan and Shalimar were still fastened in their seats, but they were hanging upside down.
Shalimar looked over at Brennan, he was unconscious and his head had several cuts. Next, she turned as best she could to see Adam; he was awake and looked like he was fine. "Adam I'm going to get down, and then I'll help you and Brennan down." She unfastened her seat belt, did a flip and landed on her feet. *Thank goodness for feral agility!*
Walking underneath where Adam was sitting she said, "Undo your belt and I'll catch you."
"Okay," Adam released his seatbelt and Shalimar caught him with ease. "Thanks. Now we have to get Brennan down."
"I'll climb up and get him." Luckily Brennan sat next to the window, so it was easy for Shalimar to climb up to where he was.
"Shalimar, I want you to position yourself underneath Brennan, so when you undo his belt, he'll land on your shoulder. Then slowly climb down with him and lay him down so I can check him out."
She did as she was told, but when she unfastened Brennan's belt, he fell hard on her shoulder. The force of the blow knocked her on the ground, and Brennan fell on top of her. Adam ran over to them and rolled Brennan off of Shalimar. Then he began to check for broken bones.
Shalimar got up and sat down next to Adam and Brennan, "Is he going to be okay?"
"Yeah, he'll be fine. Where are Jesse and Emma?"
Shalimar's eyes started to water, but she held back her tears. "I don't know Adam. This is only half of the plane, they were on the other half. I hope they're okay."
"They're probably fine. We'll look for them as soon as Brennan wakes up."
Shalimar looked around and said, "Where are we?"
Shaking his head he responded, "I don't know. We're not on any of the Hawaiian Islands, we were too far away. Once we find the others, we'll search this place and hopefully we'll find out."
*Some vacation. Jesse and Emma are missing and Brennan's hurt.* Taking Brennan's hand in hers, she silently pleaded for him to wake up.
A mile away
Emma was still lying on the ground, with Jesse's hands pushing on her wound. "See if I stopped bleeding."
Jesse gently untied the strips and looked at her wound. The deep cut was no longer there. Dried blood on her side was the only evidence that there was a cut. "Does this hurt," Jesse asked as he poked where the wound had once been.
"No. The pain stopped a minute ago. Why?" Emma managed to sit up, and she looked at her side. "How can it just disappear like that?"
"I'm not sure but if you're feeling better, we should start to look for the others. Can you read them?" He stood up and reached down to help her up.
Emma closed her eyes to help her focus and she searched for them. Worry, fear, and concern entered her head. Opening her eyes she said, "I know where they are, come on." Taking his hand, she led him through the trees, towards the direction where the emotions were coming from.
After walking for about half a mile, they saw a small pond. Emma let go of his hand and walked over to it. Kneeling down next to the water, she grabbed the bottom of her light blue shirt.
"Emma, what're you doing?" He walked over to her, wondering if she was going to take her shirt off or rip it like he did his.
"I'm going to tear off a piece of my shirt and use it as a rag to wash off all the blood," Emma said plainly. She ripped off a strip of material from the front, and dipped it into the water. Quickly she washed off the blood.
Jesse watched her as she continued to clean herself, and noticed that the bruises and cuts on her face were gone too; only dried blood remained. "Here, let me see that for a second." Emma handed him the material and he dipped it into the cool water. Then he washed the blood off her face since she couldn't see it herself.
"Thanks Jess. Let's go now. We're almost there." Both of them rose off the ground and they continued through the trees. When they reached a clearing, they saw the other half of the damaged plane. Debris was everywhere. "Oh my God," was all Emma managed to say.
"Adam, Brennan, Shalimar! Are you guys okay?" Jesse called out to them, hoping that they were close enough to answer.
Shalimar got up and ran towards Jesse's voice on the other side of the wreckage. "We're over here. Brennan's unconscious but Adam says he'll be okay. I'm so glad you guys are fine." She gave Emma a hug, and then Jesse. Noticing that Jesse didn't have a shirt on and Emma's shirt was ripped off, exposing her stomach, she said, "What have you two been doing?"
Emma opened her mouth to explain, but Jesse stopped her. *They might think it's weird that you just magically healed up. Well, it's weird but they probably wouldn't believe us anyway.* Jesse said in Emma's head, relieved that they had a special link. Even though neither of them knew exactly how it happened.
*You're right.* Looking at Shalimar she said sweetly, "It's none of your business. Where are Adam and Brennan?"
Shalimar led them to where the others were. Adam was sitting next to Brennan, who was still unconscious on the ground.
Adam looked up and smiled, "I'm glad you guys are alright."
Brennan groaned and sat up, "What the hell happened?" His head was pounding, and Shalimar was hugging him like he just came back from the dead; not that he minded her hugging him.
"The plane crashed, and now we're on an island. It's not any of the Hawaiian Islands, so we need to search this place in order to find out where we are. We need to dig through the wreckage and find our luggage, and my laptop. Then we'll make camp and search in the morning."
Everyone nodded and set to work. Jesse and Emma walked back to the other half of the plane while Brennan, Shalimar and Adam stayed behind and sifted through the rubble. In their minds, they all knew that this vacation was going to be anything, but relaxing.
A/N: Next time…After searching the island, Mutant X finds out they are alone…with no way off! But that doesn't seem to put a damper on their plans. Please R&R, tell me if you like it or if you don't. :)
