Ok, I don't own Mutant X...I wish I did, but I don't.
Anyway, I've decided to make this a compilation of alternate endings for different episodes in Season 3. The different chapters have NOTHING to do with one another; they are just stand alone alternate endings. There are spoilers in each chapter. (I think)
Umm...I think that's all... Enjoy!

~*Into The Moonless Night*~
Late that night Shalimar lay in her bed wide awake. She couldn't sleep, not after everything that had happened. Climbing out of bed she grabbed a blanket and headed to the rec. room.
When she got there she found Jesse relaxing in one of the recliners and Brennan sitting on the couch, reading, very much awake and alert. She went over and got on the couch before arranging the blanket over herself and putting her head on Brennan's lap.
He looked down from his book and brought his hand over to stroke her hair. The gentle caress relaxed her a little and the comfort of being with her family helped drown out some of the sorrow, but it didn't last long. As she thought, she realized that this wasn't her whole family. Tears came to her eyes as she thought about Emma and Adam. Emma had been the sister she never had and her best friend. Adam...before the explosion at Naxcon she had wanted to kill him. Now she wished she had him back. Even though he had lied to her and hurt her, she still loved him.
Jesse noticed the tears that were dripping from Shalimar's eyes. The last few days had been hard on all of them. "So what do we do now?"
Brennan looked up from his reading and Shalimar glanced over, before returning her gaze to the floor. "I donno. I guess we just take some time to get through this and then decide what to do from there."
"What about Lexa?" Shalimar asked after she had gained control of her tears.
Jesse shrugged slightly. "I think we should give her a chance."
Brennan shook his head. "No, I don't trust her. We don't know her. She walks in with all her secrets, and expects to just take over. I don't think so. I want to know why she's here now, what connection she has to Adam and Eckhart, who she's working for and every other little thing she's hiding."
"She did help us today." Jesse reminded.
"I don't think she's a threat, Brennan. Not right now anyway. I can sense those kind of things, and right now all I'm getting from her is that she would much rather be anywhere but here. I think we can let her hang around for while."
"Are you guys crazy? We know nothing about this woman. I want to know how she knows so much about us though."
"She said she was a part of Mutant X before us. And she obviously knows Adam." Shalimar replied.
"Maybe, this was all planed." Jesse suggested. "Maybe Adam had set this all up, so if anything happened to him Lexa would just be able to step in."
"There are too many 'maybes'. I'm not just gonna stand around and let her and 'her people' take over until I know a lot more."
Jesse and Shalimar agreed. They did need to know more about her and knowing more about who she worked for wouldn't be bad either.
After a long silence Jesse spoke. "I think I'm gonna turn in."
Shalimar got up as he stood and went to him, before wrapping her arms around him. He hugged her tightly for a moment and then kissed her head. "Goodnight," He said softly as he released her. 'Night Brenn." He called as he walked out.
"Goodnight." They both called back.
Shalimar crossed her arms and stood gazing at a picture that sat on the light stand. Brennan picked her blanket up and walked behind her, wrapping it over her shoulders. She turned and buried her face in his shoulder as she started to cry.
Brennan felt her warm tears come through his shirt and dampen his skin. He held her close wishing there was more he could do. After she had calmed down Brennan picked her up and carried her back to her bed. "You should try to sleep."
"Brennan, I don't wanna be alone right now. Please don't go."
He looked down into her eyes and couldn't tell her no. Shalimar moved over and let him lie next to her. Brennan pulled her closer and held her tightly. "Everything's gonna be ok, Shalimar. I promise." He said softly as he placed a gentle kiss on her temple.
She nodded and buried herself deep in his arms, before falling asleep. Brennan watched her for a moment and then closed his eyes. As he drifted to sleep he thought about the woman in his arms and Jesse and even though he didn't like Lexa she was in his thoughts too. It was up to him to take care of them now.
~*~*Truthfully I liked the ending to this episode, but I want to try and do a scene for each one. Hope you liked it. Please review!*~*~
