Chapter 14: Let's Go!
It was a couple hours later and I lead Jesse and Shalimar to Emma's room. "I wonder if
she's done." I whispered to the others. Shalimar's eyes lit up and I wasn't sure what she
was doing. "Yeah, she's done." Said the feral, her eyes returning to normal. I let out a
chuckle and Jesse knocked on the door. "Come in." Emma replied and all three of us
walked into her room. It was lit by several candles and a quiet water fountain was all that
could be heard. 'Wow, this must be peaceful.' I thought while in the unfamiliar
surroundings. I looked around in awe and was snapped back to reality when Shalimar
spoke. "Brennan, you alright?" I blinked a few times then looked down at her. "Uh,
yeah." I said slowly. "Lets just get ready to go." I shook my head and left the room. As I
entered my room I started thinking. 'Its gonna be really weird without Adam here. What
will we do? Get normal jobs? Continue to help other mutants? Leave Sanctuary? No, we
couldn't leave Sanctuary. We'd have no place to go. At least I wouldn't. What if we do
have to leave Sanctuary? Where would everyone end up? Would I see everyone still?
Would I see Shal? Why'd you have to mess everything up, Adam? There's no way I
could go anywhere without being able to see Shalimar anymore. I hope every turns out
alright.' Thinking more on the leaving Sanctuary idea I thought, 'If we do stay here, we'd
endanger ourselves. Why didn't I think of this before?! They could be here right now!
The Genomex guys knew where Sanctuary was, and I'm sure that more guys knew
besides the ones who were killed. Once they find the bodies, if they haven't yet, we're all
dead! We gotta get out of here now!' "Shalimar! Jesse! Emma!" I screamed. "Brennan
we're coming, chill out." Jesse said. "We have to go, now!" I shouted from my room. I
grabbed my black leather jacket off my bed and ran out of my room. Everyone else came
out of their rooms and Shalimar questioned my behavior, "What's wrong?" she asked but
I didn't have time to explain. "I'll tell you on the way, we have no time now." "But
Brennan," Emma started, "What about Adam?" I put my hands around the back of my
neck nervously and answered, "We'll take him with us and you can do your thing in the
Helix." "Why are we taking the Helix?" Jesse asked. I was getting too impatient to stay
calm. "Lets just get the hell out of here!" I almost yelled and went to get Adam. When I
went back to the others they were gone. 'Oh, no.' I thought dreadfully until I heard a
voice on my ring. "Waiting on you, Brennan." Jesse said, and I was glad he didn't sound
angry. "Alright Jes, I'm bringing Adam out now." With that I walked to the Helix and
strapped Adam into a seat. I sat myself in the pilot seat and took off quickly. "Alright,"
Shalimar said immediately. "So why were we in such a rush to get out of there?" she
asked, and I could feel her eyes burning into the back of my neck. I didn't say anything
right away. I thought maybe I overreacted. "Well.." she was cut off by a deafening sound.
"What was that?" Emma asked panicking. I looked back down at Sanctuary only to find a
burning crater. I let out a huge sigh and rubbed my hand over my face. The Double Helix
shook a bit from the explosion, but no one seemed affected. "Bye, bye Sanctuary." I
managed to say in a plain voice. Everyone else was extremely shocked and speechless.
Finally Shalimar managed to say, "So, uh, that's why we needed to leave Sanctuary?"
before I could reply Jesse cut in. "You knew?" "No. No, I didn't know Sanctuary was
gonna blow. I just knew the Genomex guys knew where we were, and they would be
seeking revenge for their agents." I let out another sigh and looked back at Shalimar and
Emma. They both had wide eyes and I had to force back a smile. "Well.." Emma started.
"Thanks." I chuckled a bit and said, "No. Thank you. All of you. You listened to me for
some odd reason." I laughed again. "None of us would have been alive right now if it
wasn't for all of you." "Nah, I think on way or another, you would have forced us out on
time." Jesse argued. "But not necessarily on time. You guys cooperated which, I think, is
the thing that saved us." "Yeah, whatever." Shalimar said. "I think we have a bigger
problem right now." She said looking at Adam. "Yeah Bren, what do you want me to do
now?" Emma asked. "Why are you all asking me things like I'm in charge?" I laughed.
Everyone laughed and I went on to answer Emma's question. "Uh, just make him forget
Mutant X and anything related to it. That should be sufficient." I told her feeling
awkwardly superior. "I'll set her down in a couple minutes and we'll drop him off there."
Not much else was said as Emma did her work, and I flew to our next stop.
