Adam sighs deeply and calls McMahon back.
"You were faster than I thought," he says to Adam.
"I couldn't give them to you today if I wanted to," he informs McMahon.
"Why?"
"Emil Davenport has been stabbed in the side. He lost a lot of blood. I don't expect him to wake up today. He will not be ready to move for a couple of days."
"You have them both ready by Friday night. You can keep his sister as a bonus. And Adam. No tricks."
Adam stares at McMahon's brown eyes for a second then turns off the computer. He turns his chair around and stares at a small brunette with tears in her eyes. He looks down at her with a serious face. Adam wipes away one of Lady's stray hairs. She walks towards him and puts her hands on his knees. Her grayish-blue eyes look directly into Adam's green ones.
"When you were in the safe house before you made Emma sleep. You lied about not turning him into McMahon."
"I didn't completely understand the situation back then," Adam tells her, "now that I know, I'm going to work hard to make sure you never have to see McMahon again."
"Adam, daddy told me why he couldn't use his powers in front of other people. He told me about the Salem witch trials. That it would be like history repeating itself if the world knew people like us are out there. You can't let McMahon expose them to the world."
"I know. I have to figure out a way to make this work by Friday. McMahon doesn't strike me as the type to kid around."
"He's not," Lady confirms.
After Emma calms down she goes in search for Brennan. It shocked her what Adam said about him donating blood for her brother. Just yesterday he would have hurt him just looking at him. She comes to his door and knocks.
"Come in," she hears his voice call.
Emma enters. When Brennan looks up and sees her, he gets a bit startled.
"I don't bite," she laughs.
"Do you think I do?" he asks.
Emma realizes where he's going.
"You let your emotions get the better of you. I wont hold it against you, but only this time." She smiles a little.
"Emma I really am sorry I hurt you."
"I know Brennan. I forgive you." She looks at him for a second. "I came in here, because I was surprised that you donated blood to him."
"Adam told me how protective of him you were. At first I was hesitant, but than I saw Lady and my perspective changed." Brennan looks down at his arm. It hasn't gotten its full strength back yet. He could hardly carry a small bag of potatoes with it yet.
"Thank you," Emma says to him.
"Emma, why are you so protective of him?"
"Emmanuel is my brother," she tells him.
"Aunty Em," he smiles think of Wizard of Oz. Then his face turns confused. "Did you just call him Emmanuel?" he asks Emma.
"Why?" she wonders.
"I thought his name was Emil."
"Oh. Whatever." She says.
Brennan looks out his window. "What do you mean 'whatever'?" When he turns around again Emma is gone.
"You shouldn't have taken your eyes off of her."
Brennan turns around to find the voice belonging to Jesse.
"You heard all that?" Brennan asks him.
"Yep, at least I'm not the last to know," Jesse answers.
"Were you as shocked as I was?"
"Yeah…but Wizard of Oz wasn't the first thought that popped into my head."
Brennan jumps up to chase Jesse. Jesse runs just in time. Brennan chuckles; he wonders how he got so lucky to make a friend like Jesse.
"You, know I seemed to remember a blonde feral living with us," Adam says in front of Shalimar.
Shalimar has been working in the same training room for the last three hours.
"And what is that supposed to mean?" she challenges.
"You usually train for an hour and mingle the rest of the day. I haven't seen you all morning."
"Didn't feel like coming out," she answers.
"I have a feeling there is more to it than that, but I thought I should update you on the situation before I call a meeting with everyone."
"What situation?" she asks before round housing the punching bag.
"We found the military asset," he tells her. Adam waits for her to turn around. "It's Lady."
"Beautiful," Shalimar says sarcastically.
"And that's another thing. She's the asset, because she knows when people are lying."
"Adam, have we just switched objectives?" she asks him.
Adam nods his head. "We're no longer trying to get Davenport back to McMahon. Now were trying to get them as far away from him as possible. Would you round everybody up? I have more news."
"Sure," she says.
Shalimar goes to the living area first to get her team. When she passed the lab something catches the corner of her eye. Some sort of movement. Shalimar goes in to investigate.
"Adam get to the lab," she calls in her ring.
Davenport is awake. He is restless. Adam comes in within a minute. Davenport's restlessness slowly rises to panic. He begins jerking uncomfortably against the tube in his mouth.
"Calm down," Adam tells him gently.
Adam takes the oxygen tube out of his mouth. He replaces it with one that goes up his nose. Davenport only relaxes a little bit.
"Do you know who I am?" he asks Adam weakly.
"Yes, but you don't have to worry."
Davenport's breathing becomes a little more troubled for a second. "A little girl," he says, "there was a little girl with me."
"I know," Adam, says, "she's with your sister."
Shalimar looks up in shock. 'His sister' she mouths. Adam nods his head a little bit.
"Oh yeah," he remembers and relaxes, "she's with Emilia."
"Who's Emilia," Shalimar asks bluntly.
"I mean Emma," Davenport retracts.
Adam and Shalimar share confused glances. Adam stabilizes Davenport some more and leaves to find Emma and Lady. He finds everybody including Jesse and Brennan in the living area.
"He's awake," Adam announces.
Lady jumps up off Emma's lap with excitement. Emma remains sitting, her hands holding the arms of the chair tightly.
"Emma?" Adam says as she continues to remain stationary.
"I don't want to see him," she says softly and looks down.
