Title: Prove Me Wrong
***Spoilers: The Hand of God
Disclaimer: Mutant X and anything related to it obviously does not belong to me. I do own a paperclip, $1.34, and a whole bunch of pocket lint. I got the title from a Caedomon's Call song called Prove My Wrong (great song by the way).

Prove Me Wrong

Shalimar lay in the tree not moving. She couldn't move. It hurt too much. Everything hurt; it hurt to breathe. She sucked in a raspy breath and tried to fill her lungs with oxygen.
Somehow a voice penetrated the thick fog that seemed to surround her head. It had to be Brennan. Even when she was an inch away from death she could recognize his voice. He was asking if she could hear him. Well of course she could hear him, it was the answering part that was difficult. How she managed to tell him that she was hurt bad she would never know. Maybe she had figured that if she told him, he would be able to take the pain away. Maybe all she needed to do was listen to his voice and then she could find the strength deep inside of herself. Either way, she knew she was still dying and had a very slim chance of making it.
She made a quiet call out to the figure walking towards her, praying it was Brennan here to save the day. When he didn't answer, she knew it wasn't Brennan, but that didn't mean whoever it was couldn't help her. She hoped that they could keep her alive long enough to see Brennan one more time, even if it was only long enough for her to tell him that she loved him.
A fresh wave of pain washed over her and she slipped into unconsciousness.

When Shalimar opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was a beautiful waterfall. Then she realized that she was no longer in any pain. A small flicker of terror hit her. She wasn't dead already, was she? She never got the chance to tell Brennan she loved him. She glanced around her surroundings, and took in the gorgeous place. There were huge trees, a bright blue pond, chirping birds. If this wasn't heaven then she didn't know what was.
She heard a twig snap behind her and she whirled around. A figure slowly emerged from the trees.
It was Brennan. Shalimar inhaled sharply and exclaimed, "Brennan! What happened? How did you get here?"
"Why don't you tell me? This is your mind," he replied calmly as he walked up to her and gently picked up her hand.
"What are you talking about? Wait a minute.this is my mind? I thought this was heaven," Shalimar whispered, clutching his hands.
"Shal, you aren't dead. You are hurt very badly but you are still alive. You have to concentrate and listen to my voice. Shal you have to wake up. I know you are in a lot of pain and I know it hurts but you have to wake up. You can't die now. I never got the chance to tell you how I feel about you. You have to wake up and get well so I can tell you. Please do this for me," Brennan told her and he kissed her hand lightly.
Shalimar looked at him, and gazed deeply into his brown eyes. Then she closed her eyes and fought to wake up.
