Complete Summary: The aftermath of being ensnared in a reverie. Emma and Jesse deal with the effects of Sheila's powers on them, and together, they are healed. But something is wrong with Emma. Sheila's powers have a different effect on her. Adam and the others must find out what is before it is too late. And there's something else - a man with a dark past intent on wreaking havoc inside Mutant X.
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Mutant X.
Note ---- Here I am again, Mutant X mania. This is actually a CONTINUATION [I don't like the sound of sequels, they usually suck and I don't want this to suck! ;) heheh] to my previous fic, "Ensnared in my Reverie" and you may or may not read it first. But if you've already read it, then read this one away!
I don't know what they call the rooms at Sanctuary, but the place where there are computers will be called an office here in my fanfic. Haha, how pathetic that sounds. Anyways, read and REVIEW!!! :)
Oh, and can someone teach me how to use bold, italics, or underline for a fanfic? So that I can differentiate which is the real thing and which is the vision of Emma. ;)
Awwww, Emma is gone now from the REAL Mutant X!!! Too bad, too bad!!! Now there's no chance of her and Jesse ever getting together. Oh well, I'm making this fanfic 100% Emma and Jesse!!! :)
+read, enjoy, review+
Chapter 4 - What Emma Saw
"Nothing from Adam, yet?" Emma asked, walking inside the office.
Jesse turned around, and shook his head. He turned back to the computer and began typing away. "I can't find his comlink anywhere," he said, his brow furrowing. Emma stood beside him, and gazed at the screen. "You think something bad happened?" he asked quietly.
"I hope not," Emma mumbled, thinking about Adam and wondering where he was. She gripped the back of the chair, as a vision flashed in her eyes. It was a bit blurry. Emma was seeing a vision through someone's eyes. She could make out an old abandoned building and then when the person turned around, it was like she also did the same, and she saw a harbor, and the sea.
Emma felt a hand clamp over her shoulder, just as in the vision, the person was whirled around and Emma saw a man, with an ugly scar on the jaw, throwing a punch towards her, towards the person.
"Emma?" Shalimar's voice broke through her mind. "Are you okay?" Her voice sounded so far away.
Emma cried out in pain, as a hand punched her on the stomach and she double over in pain. As another punch landed on her side, the vision in her eyes shifted, and she came face-to-face with the pavement. The person had fallen to the ground.
But Emma, in the office, was still standing.
"Emma? What's going on?" Jesse asked, shaking her.
"Do you think her powers are advancing?" Brennan asked, casting a worried look at Emma.
"Yeah, but not like this," Shalimar cried out. "She looks like she's in pain! She looks like she can't even hear us!"
The vision Emma was seeing was suddenly the sky, as the person was roughly turned around. Emma saw the man with the scar, and a fist going towards her. She felt his jaw on her face, and she cried out in pain.
Then, everything went dark.
The vision in her eyes shifted and once more she was back at Sanctuary, staring blankly at Jesse who was looking worriedly at her. "Emma! Snap out of it!" he was saying.
Emma gripped him on the arms, to steady herself. "What happened?" she asked looking at all of them, as though she had just woken up from a dream.
"You tell us," Brennan said.
"Yeah," Shalimar said, looking at Emma. "You just doubled over, like someone landed a punch on you," she explained. "And you were like on a different world. You couldn't hear us."
Emma furrowed her brow. "I couldn't hear you?"
"We kept calling you," Jesse explained. "But you were looking at something. What did you see?"
Emma placed a hand on her forehead, and winced at the pain from the punches. She looked at Jesse, and said, "It was like the visions I had, from you."
"Visions?" Brennan repeated.
"I've been having these visions," Emma explained to him and Shalimar. "I could see things from Jesse's eyes, and I could also feel whatever he felt. And just right now, I saw things from someone's eyes. I think it was Adam," she added in a worried tone.
"What did you see?" Shalimar prodded.
"An old abandoned warehouse, by the sea," Emma replied.
"Emma, come on, think," Shalimar urged, her voice demanding. "There are a million places like that all over America. You have to find something distinct about it. We have to find Adam."
Brennan placed a comforting hand on Shalimar. "Shal, relax. Your pressuring Emma, and that won't help her."
"I'm sorry," Emma's voice broke. "But the vision was blurry."
Jesse gave her hand a comforting squeeze. "Were your visions, from me, blurry also?" he asked slowly.
Emma shook her head. "No," she answered. "They were clear, as though I was really you, and I saw the things you saw. But with Adam, I think," she paused, "-I think it's because you and I share a connection. A connection of our minds that Sheila made somehow, but with Adam, I don't have some sort of connection with him. I can only sense him and-"
"It's okay, Em," Jesse murmured softly. "We'll find him."
"Maybe this would help," Emma said, looking at him, then at Brennan and Shalimar. "There was a man, with a scar on his jaw. He was the one who was punching Adam, and in turn, was punching me. Sort of."
Shalimar straightened. "That's why you doubled over?"
Emma nodded.
"Unbelievable," Brennan began. "It was like you were there, except you were really here. What you saw, you saw through his eyes."
"Exactly," Emma said nodding. She cast a worried glance at Jesse. So far, she hadn't told him that she had felt and that she knew the tortures he had gone through.
Shalimar wrinkled her forehead. " Wait, I don't understand the whole connection thing."
"I think it was when Sheila both trapped us in our minds," Jesse began to explain. "To release us from the dreamscape, she tapped into our minds to tell us that it was unreal and when she did that she had made a connection of our minds."
"Sheila found me, my mind, and she told me that I could tap into Jesse's mind, to reason with him that it was all in our minds. That's how the connection must've been formed," Emma added.
"So, is this an effect of Sheila's powers on you? Or are your powers advancing?" Brennan asked.
"I think both," Emma replied. "I think Sheila's powers triggered something in me that made my powers advance."
"By your powers advancing," Shalimar began slowly. "You mean, that you can see what other people see. It's not the future, is it?"
Emma shook her head. "I think it's the near past. I mean, I don't really see as far as the childhood years, but I see as far as two or three days ago, or maybe minutes ago."
"So what you saw," Jesse said, "Was of Adam just now?"
"I think so. I mean, I figured it was Adam because I had been thinking about him, sort of sensing where he was. Just as I was doing that, I had the vision," Emma replied. And then she shook her head. "But I wasn't able to see much," she said, feeling foolish.
Shalimar stepped towards her, and hugged her. "It's okay, Em. We'll find Adam," she said. "I'm sorry about earlier."
Emma smiled weakly. "Don't be."
Shalimar was about to say something when she noticed Emma's eyes dilate. She waved a hand in front of Emma, but Emma didn't blink. "Guys, I think Emma's having another vision," she said.
Emma strained her eyes to get a clearer vision. She could feel someone's arms on hers, and she was struggling. Adam was struggling. And then she heard a voice-
"It's not use, Adam."
"What do you want?" Adam's voice barked.
"You'll soon find out."
And then, Emma saw a car in front of her. Her eyes dropped to the plate number, and she memorized it. Someone popped open the trunk. He turned towards Adam, and Emma saw he had the same scar on his jaw, but this man was different. "In you go, Adam Kane."
Adam took a step forward.
Then, something hard hit him on the head and he slumped forward.
Emma cried out, as she felt the blow on her head. And everything went dark. Emma blinked, and then she saw she was back at Sanctuary. The others were looking worriedly at her. "I'm back," she mumbled.
But she was well aware of a stinging sensation in her head. And she felt like she was having a killer headache. She reached behind her, touching the part where she had felt Adam was hit.
Her heart beat faster when she felt something wet.
Bringing her hand down, she saw blood. "Oh my God."
She was bleeding, as though she really had been hit.
