Amazing Love, How Can It Be?

The pretty blonde feral laughed as the 'tough', 'macho' elemental went down hard on his back on the dojo floor.
"Hey, Brennan, I thought you said you could beat me?"
"I can."
"Then why are you the one on the ground?"
Just then, Brennan kicked his leg out and swiped Shalimar's legs from under her. She fell down on top of him.
"I thought you never lost to me," Brennan said, smirking.
Shalimar just smacked him on the head and jumped up, glaring at him.
"Ouch! What was that for?"
"For you being annoying."
Brennan quickly stood up next to her and began to tickle her sides. Shalimar started laughing uncontrollably and tried, unsuccessfully, to push his hands away.
"Stop it. Brennan!" Shalimar whined when she could get a breath in between giggles.

"No."
"Fine, have it your way." Brennan started tickling her harder.
"Ok fine. You won." Shalimar gasped. "Now stop."

"What the hell was that?" Brennan muttered.
"I don't know. Maybe Adam or one of the others saw it too."
Shalimar turned and ran straight out the dojo. Brennan had no choice but to follow her.
"Adam! What the hell was that blue light?" He heard her question their leader.
"I have never seen anything like that." Adam replied calmly.
Suddenly everything froze. Nothing was moving in Sanctuary or anywhere else in the world. It was as if time had just stopped. But who knows? Maybe it had
