Shalimar couldn't sleep, Brennan and Emma had retired to bed a while ago and now her mind just wouldn't rest. She glanced across at the led alarm it flashed 1am [damn it Jesse I hope your ok, sleep if you can my precious, we will come for you]
After a while of just sitting there, thinking of Jesse, Shalimar got up, she couldn't stay in her room anymore. As she walked through sanctuary it was eerily quiet, except for the sounds of Brennan and Emma sleeping as she passed by their rooms. Stopping outside jesses room she looked in, the bed was still made and the room looked unlived in, like he had never been there.
[Typical Jess, you couldn't be like a normal guy and be messy. At least then I could pretend you were here and not elsewhere with god knows what being done to you, grrr when I find that wench I'm gonna]
Jesses smell still lingered in the room, the aroma of his favourite aftershave as strong as if he had just splashed some on. [Cool waters, you never change, you have worn that since Adam first brought you here.] Shalimar thought as she lay on the bed reminiscing about Jesse [get a grip Shal he's not dead just taken, no thanks to you. Come on snap out of it! Go do something useful!] She scolded herself. Before leaving the room she straightened his sheets, the guy was a perfectionist and she didn't want to upset him even more. In the labs Adam was asleep on the computer console [does that guy ever sleep in his bed] she decided it was best to leave him to sleep.
Shalimar headed to the dojo and set up a computer simulation of Erica, getting the computer to put feral DNA into her generated opponent. She then contented herself to beat the simulation senseless for a while, to get rid of some of her energy, but her adrenalin was pumping and the anger raged in her head. [Fighting a computer isn't going to help Jesse, I need to find Erica and kick her ass] She knocked off the safety setting on the simulation, this version of Erica was faster and stronger and Shalimar was quickly becoming tired.
The warning had awakened Adam as the computers safety system was shut off. He could now hear someone fighting in the dojo. "Computer deactivate simulation", he ran up the steps to where Shalimar lay on the floor. She was bleeding from the nose and bruises were beginning to appear on her cheeks. "Shal, Shal come on wake up" Shalimar reluctantly opened her eyes and gazed up into the gentle concerned eyes of Adam, a single tear ran down her face "Adam I let him down, I promised him and I let him down," Adam helped the now sobbing Shalimar to her feet and walked her slowly back to her room. She lay down on her bed and turned her head away, crying into her pillow. Adam sat in her room until she had fallen asleep, then inspected the bruising coming up on her cheek "it wasn't your fault shal, we'll bring him back" he said quietly to the sleeping Shalimar.
Sorry it's short but still let me know what you think. I'll update sooner this time!
