Chapter 9: Oh Joy Oh Bliss

"We can't wait around here for someone to come and find us. We'll have to come back," Adam said.

"What do you mean, come back?" Emma asked.

"I'm sorry Emma, but we wouldn't do them any good if we were caught again." She nodded and began to stand up with Jesse's help.

"Let's go." Emma took one more look at the door and walked away, leaving her two friends to fight for their freedom until they came back.

*

Brennan was sleeping lightly against the wall, trying to get his strength back from Emma's attack. Shalimar was staring at him from across the room. She felt the feral rising up in her and all that that entailed. She had spent years training herself how to control it. She felt things that she shouldn't about Brennan -- like what it would be like to kiss him. He was almost the big brother she had never had. Where were these thoughts coming from? The injections of course. But they made her feel free, better then she had in a long time. She didn't have to worry about others and what they thought of her or her powers. She was free to use them whenever and wherever she pleased. Smiling, she heard movement outside the door, and then nothing as she drifted into a sleep full of nightmares.

*

Brennan woke-up and looked around, trying to figure out where he was. Then he remembered the GSA, the needles, the half-assed 'rescue' attempt by Mutant X, fighting with them and losing..That was it. He saw Shalimar. She was sleeping, her chest rising and falling with each breath. He needed to do something, anything..He needed to get out of this hellhole. He walked over to Shalimar and shook her awake.

"Really to blow out of here?" he asked.

"Most defintely." They stood up and waited for the next poor soul who walked in the door.

*

When the three other members of Mutant X got far way from Genomex they found a payphone and dialled one of their 'help' lines.

"Hello, this is Theresa. How many I help you?" came a female voice.

"Hey Theresa, it's Adam. We need a hand, and some bug repellent," he said, speaking in the code set up for the underground. He gave the address of where they were.

"How many?"

"Three."

"Okay. Someone will be there in a little bit."

"Thanks." Then they both hung up.

*

Shalimar heard a group of people gathering outside their room. "Someone's outside," she reported to Brennan.

"Do you know who it is?"

"The man who gave us our shots, and a few more men."

"How many?"

Shalimar tipped her head. "I don't know, maybe six."

"It's an upgrade from last time."

"Yeah. Is that good or bad?" she asked with a mischeivous look.

*

The doctor was instructing the men about what they should do and what they shouldn't.

He didn't want anything to go wrong, for it would be his neck on the cutting board.

"Don't let them escape at all costs. Bullet wounds can heal," he said. Then he opened the door.

He saw the female feral, but not the male elemental. That's weird. He signalled for one of the guards to go into the room -- but immediately a shot of electricity hit the man. The doctor moved aside as two more mercenaries filed into the room, their guns pointed at where the source of the electricity.

They turned the corner, their guns raised high, at chest height. "Freeze! Now come out with your hands up." The two men walked backwards with their guns pointed; the elemental followed with his hands above his head.

"You got me. Congratulations." He started laughing. He was told to kneel down and place his hands on the back of his head. He did what they told him, and the doctor stepped forward and took out a needle filled with the same substance as before.

"Oh goodie, I get a booster shot," he laughed as the doctor drove the needle home and injected the fluid into him. "Here comes the shaking part." But it never came; instead everything around him became louder and brighter. It was as if someone had turned a switch on high and everything was pure agony. He thought that he screamed, but he wasn't sure.

~

Shalimar watched with fascination as Brennan screamed in pain. She should have felt fear for what was about to happen to her but in fact she couldn't wait; she wanted to know what he was feeling, why he was screaming the way he was. Then she felt a needle in her neck and everything kicked up about 20 notches.

*

Jesse was tired of watching. He was about to yell and tell Emma it was her turn when he saw a new Ford Thunderbird arrive. "They're here," he said back to Adam and Emma. They got up and walked out of the establishment, leaving the money on the table. The car pulled up and the door opened, and the three of them got in. There was a man and a woman. They didn't say anything to one another. The man in the backseat handed them each a bug detector. After they scanned their entire bodies and found nothing they felt safe enough to talk, but they still didn't mention names.

"It's been a long time. What have you been up to?" the women asked.

"Nothing too much. Just, you know, saving the world, the same old stuff," Jesse said.

The man laughed. "Where are the others?"

"They are still being held at the GSA," the woman said. Adam frowned.

"It's good to see you again," Emma said, changing the subject.

"It is. So are we going to go get Bren and Shal or what?" The woman asked. Adam smiled.

"Let's get some gear; then we'll go and get our team."

* Brennan had the headache of a lifetime. Whatever they had put in him had done what it was supposed to do. He felt.great, which was kinda funny. He didn't really feel anything other than the small grumble in his stomach and the need to do something. There was something -- he couldn't precisely say what it was, but there was almost a longing to do something. He heard Shalimar moving. Which he shouldn't have; they had at least 15 feet between them and she was just stirring; his hearing was never that good. What was in that needle? Shalimar got up and stretched, walking around practically purring. What was up with her?

"Shalimar, what's up?" he enquired. Suddenly he knew what that longing had been for: it had been for sex. He felt a need for Shalimar. It was almost too strong to control. He smelt her, heard her, saw her, he could almost feel her in the air. He rolled his neck and smiled. He felt powerful, like a .like a cat..Smiling, he spoke up.

"Shal, do you feel funny? Like there's electricity running through your veins?"

"Yes, how'd you know that?" she asked, puzzled. He laughed. "What? Brennan what is it?"

"Quick question. Do you still have your feral power?"

"Yes. Brennan, tell me what you're thinking," she said, irritated.

"That idiotic doctor.He must have given us each other's powers somehow." Now it was Shalimar's turn to laugh. Then she stopped laughing, for they had walked closer together. She looked up at him. Licking her bottom lip, she stood up on her tiptoes and kissed him. He was surprised at first, but then he welcomed it. He needed it. He pulled her closer and deepened the kiss. Unbuttoning her top, he kissed her chest. Then she pulled his top up over her head. They slowly undressed each other , teasing one another. Once they were undressed Brennan entered her slowly, then went faster and faster. He pushed her up against the wall and went harder.

"Brennan.mmmm." She ran her hands through his hair. "I'm cumming. Don't stop!"

And he didn't. Not until they had both cum a few times. They collapsed onto the floor, tired and worn out, but happy.

"That was." Shalimar said, not knowing what to say.

"Yeah,' Brennan said as he finally pulled out of her. They lay together, not because they needed to feel together, but because it's what they thought they should do.

*

The doctor laughed all the way to Eckhart's office. The door slid open.

"Yes?"

"The next step in the plan has been fulfilled. I just need to confirm that the feral has been impregnated."

"Fine, leave the two in the same room. If she is, she will fight to get to her mate and likewise for him. They must not know what is going on."

A/N: Sorry to leave ya hanging but you know me.it isn't a good story if there aren't any cliffs.
