AN: ok here is chapter four!!! Hope you enjoy!!! Not as long as I wished it

"Chapter four: What the???
Brennan sat in the lab with Shalimar next to him waiting for his sister to wake up. He had so many questions to ask her. When he looked at her he saw an image of his mother. He turned to Shalimar who was just staring at him and smiled. She returned the smile and tightened her grip on his hand for a second then lightened it again.
He stood up after five minutes and started walking back and fourth in the lab... He took a quick look at Jean then to Shalimar. "Scott must be sick with worry," he said looking towards Jean again who was hooked up to all sorts of monitors.
"Can't imagine what he's going through," she agreed. Brennan once again took his seat next to her and held her hand. "I don't even want to try," he said quietly. They both turned their head when they herd a sigh from where Whitney lay. She started to stir and slowly opened one eye then the other. She just stared for a few seconds then looked around the room her gaze finally fell on Brennan and Shalimar.
She stared at them both for a while then just at Brennan. "Great now I am hallucinating," she said with a quick laugh... "Ow, shouldn't have done that" she kept staring.
Just as soon as she had been up she fell asleep. She put her head back on the pillow and was out instantly.
When Brennan was sure she would be ok he left the lab with Shalimar and headed to the Professors office.
"How is she?" Jeremy asked.
"She got up for a few minutes, she thought she was hallucinating and went back to sleep."
"What do we do now?" Brennan asked
"Now we wait. It's all we can do until Whitney wakes up and hopefully she has an idea of what Eric and Mason were planning."
They all sat in the quiet no one knowing what to say. Finally the Professor broke it. "Why don't you all go get some rest and we'll talk to Whitney in the morning when she is well rested" No one argued everyone left the office leaving the Professor and Adam alone.
"What's wrong Charles."? Adam asked knowing something was up.
"You know me to well Adam." He smiled and continued. "Something is not right I am getting a bad vibe I can not get a single emotion from Whitney its like she's blocking me out somehow."
Adam thought for a minute "Maybe she thinks she is still at Genomex"
"Possibly" he replied still not sure. The Professor's head shot up when he sensed someone in the school. "Come I will introduce you to Logan." He said as he left the room fallowed closely by Adam.
They went towards the lab to find Logan standing above Whitney. His sharp claws came out from hands.
"Logan what are you doing?" Charles asked as he entered the lab. Seeing Logan about to slice Whitney.
"Why is she here?" he pointed to Whitney.
"You have met Whitney before she was here looking for her brother." The Professor explained.
"This is not Whitney her sent smells kind of like" he stopped sniffed the air "Mystic" he finished. As soon as he finished 'Whitney's' eyes shot open and suddenly she plunged a needle into him.
Mystic quickly shifted into her blue self and took down Adam and knocked the professor from his chair and left the school. She'd done all she had needed to do. Stall the X-men and mutant X long enough for Mason and Magneto to got a hold of the blood.
The professor sent a message to Scott using his telepathy. Scott ran down the hall fallowed by Aurora and Jesse. They made it to the lab and found Adam and the Professor thrown from his chair to the floor and Logan attempting to stand.
Scott helped the Professor back into his chair while Jesse went to Adam and Aurora to Logan. She removed the needle from his left shoulder and placed it on one of the tables. Logan didn't need any assistance standing his mutation already helping him recover.
"What happened where is Whitney" Jesse asked glancing at the empty bed.
"It wasn't Whitney" Logan told the stranger in front of him.
The room was silent. Jesse finally broke it.
"Who wants to tell Brennan" Jesse asked. Adam looked at him and sighed. "I'll go talk to him." With that he left. Everyone went his or her separate ways.
"Did you find anything Logan" Aurora asked as they left the lab. He shook his head "No" he gave her a smile and walked to his room as she went into hers.
Adam slowly made his way to Brennan and Shalimar's room thinking of ways to tell him that they hadn't really rescued his sister instead they had gotten a shape shifting mutant while his sister was still in Genomex being cut up for her blood.
He finally made it to the room and stood outside the door then after a long wait he knocked on the door. After moments of silence he heard Brennan reply a come in.
He took in a long breath and twisted the doorknob. He entered into the room this not sure of what to say... he looked around the room and didn't find Shalimar there. "Where is Shalimar?" he asked.
Brennan pointed to the bathroom. "Taking a shower" he paused then saw the look on Adams face. "What's wrong Adam?"
"Um." Adam paused not knowing how to say what he needed to. He sat down on a chair across from where Brennan was sitting on the bed. "I don't know how to quite put this but I'm just going to tell you" Adam went on.
"Adam just tell me," Brennan said already knowing it was bad news and was preparing himself.
"When we rescued Whitney and brought her back we brought back a shape shifting mutant called Mystic." He waited for Brennan's reaction but instead got nothing it was as if his brain had to process what he had just heard.
"How did we not know this?" he asked quietly. "They managed to somehow block the Professor out of her mind so he couldn't sense it and Shalimar didn't know your sisters scent and they were the only ones that would be able to tell. Other then Jean" he said.
"How did you find out then?" He asked already starting to feel guilty.
Adam then explained to him about Logan and his mutant ability.
"We have to get her out." He got up starting to pace. "Damn It" he said frustrated.
"And we will Brennan but I want you to get some rest we will get her back first thing in the morning we can not help your sister if we are all tired" he knew he had made his point, not knowing what more to say he stood up, placed his hand on Brennan's shoulder and exited the room.
Shalimar walked out of the bathroom. "Was that Adam in he..." she didn't finish her sentence when she saw the look on his face instead she walked over to him. "Brennan what's wrong what happened?"
He didn't answer he sat on the edge of the bed and started to stare at the chair in front of him. It didn't seem to Shalimar that he would answer but finally he did. "Whitney is still in Genomex" he paused and stared at her. "We grabbed a shape shifting mutant."
She knew what he was feeling at that moment. "It wasn't your fault Brennan we couldn't have known."
He smiled at her "I know" she walked over to the bed and sat down next to him. "What did Adam say we do now?"
"Rest" he said without any feeling "how am I suppose to rest knowing that my sister is in that hell whole being cut open for her blood." He paused then continued. "Its not fair... she got away from my father just to end up in Genomex."
"We'll get her out Bren" she said trying to reassure him.
"Yeah, what if its to late" he asked not really wanting to know the answer.
"It wont be"
"How do you know that?" he said raising his voice unintentionally.
"Look Brennan I don't know that but from what I hear she is one strong girl, the best we can do is hope she is still alive and go get her out."
"Guess you're right. Sorry" he had never raised his voice toward Shalimar in all the time they had been dating. "I'm just worried, I just found out I have a sister I want a chance to get to know her" he finished and looked into her eyes with sadness.
"I know you're worried Bren but we will get her out and you can get to know her all you want, Aurora tells me she is a lot like you, her attitude and hair and eye color." she smiled at him and got a small smile out of him.
