~ About 6ish...Brennan's ~
'Hey Shal, I'm just gonna go to the toilet, and then I'm gonna head out okay? You'll be alright, right?'
'Yes! I'll be fine, trust me!'
Brennan turned to head to the toilet, but turned back when Shalimar called out to him.
'Yeah?'
'Um..I just wanna say thanks. You know? For putting up with me and everything, and I'm really grateful for it all.'
'Hey listen, it was no problem, I enjoy having u here. Then I don't have to be so lonely!'
Before she could reply, he went into the toilet to get changed. She took this as her chance, she didn't want to leave when he had gone because she didn't feel it was right. She moved to the kitchen and grabbed a piece of paper from his kitchen counter to write a little note.
Brennan,
listen, thanks for everything. I know you don't think
I'm ready to go out but I'm fine, just a little bruise.
Anyway, I'm fine and I'll see ya around. After all,
I know where you live. I'll keep in touch, I promise.
Again, thanks for everything,
shalimar

She put it somewhere where he could easily see it when he got out of the toilet, and then quickly grabbed her jacket before taking her keys. Taking one more look at the apartment Brennan so openly looked after her in, she shot out of the room and disappeared into the city.
Brennan got out of the toilet, hoping that he could get the chance to ask Shalimar for her opinion on his chosen clothes. He knew he was just going training with 'Adam' but he turned it into an excuse just so she could see his wardrobe.
He was a bit surprised considering it was quieter than just a few seconds ago. That's when it hit him. He looked around and noticing Shalimar wasn't there, he thought she had done a runner. Then, a little piece of paper that he swore wasn't there before, caught his eye.
*Geez, this is like a typical movie! She does a runner, leaving a note. Damn that girl is sneaky!*
He read the note and even though he didn't want to, he agreed with her. Colour was back in her cheeks since the last night. He just didn't want her to leave because he wanted to get to know her.
*Well, I guess she did say she was gonna stay in touch!*
So he didn't do anything. He knew she was a big girl and could handle herself. There was something about her. Any other girl would have definately ended up worse than her with a man that was in the alley last night. But she recovered the day after...which was something he didn't see everyday.
He just grabbed his keys, went down the elevator, out the building, into his car, and just drove. Without saying anything.
~ Somewhere in the city ~
Shalimar had gotten on her bike and just hoped that Brennan didn't take it too badly. She had never done that before...but nobody ever had to save her before. She wasn't focusing on the road, but something caught her eye that she couldn't turn away from.
She looked down that direction, and noticed a piece of paper. It was her list! The one Adam split for her and Jesse. That meant that she was going somewhere in the right direction, and she'd be home before she knew it!
She practically ran back to her bike, and rode in the direction to Sanctuary twice the speed she was approximately 2 minutes ago.
~ Sanctuary ~
Jesse had made Emma a comm-link under the orders of Adam. He agreed without any arguments though, just because he needed something to get his mind off Shalimar, and he thought Emma deserved one.
He began to think that Emma was something good for Mutant X, and that Emma and he would have a great friendship in the future. He just wished it was under different circumstances.
~ Emma's Room, Sanctuary ~
Adam had given her a piece of Shalimars clothing in order to try and get a hit off her. He thought that if she knew what her belongings felt like, she might be able to feel something off Shalimar.
'Adam!!'
Adam ran in after hearing Emma call his name. He opened the door to see her sitting down calmly, something he wasn't expecting. He thought she had hurt herself or something.
'Emma? What's wrong?'
'Nothings wrong...Sorry, I didn't mean to alarm you. It's just...I think I just got a hit off Shalimar.'
'What? Really? Now, are you sure? Cause I mean it could be-'
'Adam! Listen! You've gotta stop thinking the worst of everything. Try being positive for once. I got a hit. I saw...' She re-thought the images that went through her mind and just saw the streets, someone riding a bike, and blonde hair riding through the wind.
'...A street, but I don't know where. I think she's closer though, cause I tried earlier and I couldn't get anything!'
'It's okay, listen. Thanks Emma. I don't know what we'd do without you.' He pulled her into a hug and she found the urge to hug him back. It had been a while since her father had hugged her like this.
'Jesse!' They let go and Adam ran out preparing to tell Jesse about the news of Shalimar.
Emma smiled, and tried focusing on Shalimar again. She felt a great wave of relief when she felt her closer than five minutes ago.
~ Sanctuary Entrance thing...(How exactly do they get into Sanctuary with the car?) ~
Shalimar rode her bike and parked it into the space that was always for her bike. There was a car for each member of mutant x, and a bike space just for Shalimar. She was surprised to see four cars parked though. *I'll ask Adam later....*
She took in the smell of home and smiled. It had only been one day, but felt like months! Shalimar walked up to the door, and opened it taking her first step back into Sanctuary.
'Home sweet home.'
