Chapter 13: What Now?
"Whoa!" Shalimar said surprised. "Quick, Jes," I commanded the molecular. "Go into
Adam's lab and get one of those shot things that put people out for twelve hours." He
nodded and ran out of the room. 'Strange.' I thought. 'He usually doesn't listen to me like
that. He must be in shock seeing Adam knocked unconscious.' "What are we gonna do
now?" Emma asked, stunned as everyone else. "Don't worry about now." I told her.
"Worry about when we run out of sleeping shots." I paused. "Or if Jesse comes back and
there aren't any." 'Please don't let that happen.' I silently begged. It was silent for a
minute until Jesse came back. "Let me guess, you couldn't find any." I assumed. Jesse
sighed. "Of course I found them!" he said returning back to his unshocked state. "Good."
I said felling reassured. Seeing the strange expression on his face, however, I knew
something was wrong. "What's wrong?" I asked him simply. "Its nothing," he started
slowly. "Its just that, I don't know if this is such a great idea." He said nervously. "Come
on Jes," I urged him. "We need time to decide what to do with him." He gave me a
unconvincing 'alright' stare and handed my three vaccinations. Everyone watched
apprehensively as I injected him, and I wondered why there was so much tension.
"Alright we need to start getting ideas." I instructed the team. "But first," they looked
uptight as I stopped. "Lets grab some food." They laughed nervous laughter and I
wondered why they seemed not so up to my plan. 'I'm sure they'll get over whatever's
bugging them.' I convinced myself. We went into Sanctuary's kitchen and found
something to eat quickly. Nobody seemed to have much of an appetite until I made it
seem Shalimar was kicking Emma underneath the table, and Emma was getting mad at
Shalimar. Jesse, however, knew I was doing it and laughed so hard, his water started
coming out his nose. Shal and Emma were wondering what he was laughing at, and
seeing the water coming out of Jesse's nose, they started laughing uncontrollably. 'Its
working!' I thought while I too was laughing aloud. 'They're relaxing.' After a very
entertaining meal, we decided to get back down to get back down to business. Emma
started our 'meeting' with her opinions. "I honestly don't think we should kill him or
anything. We really shouldn't be that mean." She said innocently. Shalimar didn't seem
to be in the 'lets all get along' kind of mood and protested Emma's statement. "No. We
should be that mean. Maybe not kill him, but if not, then at least beat him into a comma."
Jesse looked at her appalled before stating his view. "I agree with Emma. We really
should kill Adam. Yeah he lied to us and all, but we're not like that. We don't just kill
people for no reason." Shal again protested. "No reason?! Jes, he almost got us killed! He
betrayed us! How would that be without a reason?!" she yelled. "Shal, we cant kill
Adam." Emma informed her, but her assertion didn't seem to make much sense. Shalimar
was about to start screaming again when I cut in. "Usually, I would completely agree
with Shalimar in this case." I paused. "However, I think I may just have an idea we can
all agree on." They exchanged unsure looks and Jesse spoke up. "What's your plan?" I
raised my eyebrows and Shal looked at me impatiently. I smiled. "Well, while he's
asleep, Emma will blast him and clear his memory of the location of Sanctuary, Mutant
X, mutants all together, and any other important information. Then we'll dump him out in
some alley way or something and let him be. Life goes on, we're all good." I finished
successfully and the team seemed to agree. Emma didn't really want to be that mean, but
she knew it could have gotten a lot worse. "So when do we start?" Shal asked obviously
ready to go. "Well, I think we should wait a little while." I told her. She was seriously
disappointed but I knew it was best like this. "Why?!" she asked raising her voice again.
"I think Emma should get some time to meditate first, and we can all watch a movie or
something." I said hoping they would all agree. Emma smile great fully and Jesse nodded
in agreement. 'Please Shal, trust me on this.' I wished. "Alright." She said. "But I get to
pick out the movie. "Sounds good to me." I said and threw my arm around her shoulder.
She smiled up at me and I smiled back. Jesse sighed behind us and I had to suppress a
laugh. "Shall we?" I invited her and we shared a laugh then headed to the lounge.
