Chapter six: Now we know
Jesse and Lexa entered Sanctuary holding Brennan's and Emma's unconscious bodies. Adam froze when he saw them.
"C'mon Adam we could use a little help..." Jesse complained as he lied Brennan in the medical lab. Lexa followed the molecular and did the same in the next bed. Suddenly both moleculars noticed Shalimar's body lying on a bed itself.
"What's with Shalimar?" Lexa dared to ask. She saw Jesse's sudden looks at Adam, who didn't seem to be hearing at all. "Adam?"
"Oh... She.. she is resting Lexa... What happened to them?" Adam said quickly returning to reality.
"Brennan.. he is really bad Adam.. when I found him he barely breathed... whatever they did to him it really hurt Brennan... His whole entire body is beaten up and burnt." Jesse said as he looked at Brennan and pointing the wounds.
"Yeah I see.. And Emma?" Adam asked again surprised.
"Adam... Can I have a word with you?" Lexa questioned. Adam nodded slightly and they both left the lab leaving Jesse very confused. Lexa walked with Adam on her heels when they both stopped. She looked at him and started.
"What the hell are you doing here??? If they find out you're in here they are gonna kill us!!! You have to go now..." Lexa said in a hard tone. Adam looked at her and barely smile.
"Lexa... A war is coming.. you cant no longer stop it." Adam said to her. He turned to type some things on the keyboards.
"No.. The Dominion is very dangerous!!! We can't fight them!! They will end up with all of us!" Lexa said again, this time, hands agitating and voice rising.
"We should leave this talk for when all the team is up and conscious. I wont discuss this just with you." Adam said pissing Lexa off.
( )
Shalimar's eyes opened up slowly. The light blinded them for about seconds and then she finally opened them entirely. She moved her head carefully, and tried all her fingers by moving them. Then she looked at her sorroundings, that familiar place she was in.
"mmm... Jess?" Shalimar said dizzy. She sat on the medical bed and stared at the man besides her. "Brennan!!!" She quickly recognised him. She tried to stand but her senses failed as she couldnt move.
"Shal stay still.. you're still very weak to move..." Jesse said as he approached her.
"Is Brennan okay? And... Emma?" Shalimar's eyebrow curled. She started crying and sobbing. "Is she really...?"
"Yeah... Is Emma, Shal... its a long story and I will be glad to tell you it, but right now, we need you 3 to get better soon." Jesse said covering Shalimar with a blanket.
"What about Brennan? He doesn't look fine Jess... I want to know what happened... now." Shalimar demanded. Suddenly she noticed she was conected to some kind of bag with liquid. "The serum." She muttered while looking at Jesse.
"Brennan is indeed very hurt.. but he will be okay. Now get some sleep." Jesse told her.
"No... no more sleep.. I want answers." Shalimar said as she finally got up. She approached Brennan and gently passed her fingers through his hair. His eyes opened weakly. "Brennan?" He took a deep breath before answering. Now Jesse approaching too.
"Yeah.. Shak you okay? Did I bring the serum on time?" He asked trying to sit. Shalimar helped him and nodded.
"What you did in there... very stupid Mulwray..." Shalimar said trying her best to smile.
"It was worth it." He answered weakly.
"Right now you're not fine Bren... so we'll have a talk later.. Cause I really want us to talk." Shalimar said. She approached even more and carefully kissed him on the lips. She didnt even care Jesse was in there.
( )
NEXT MORNING...
Adam was working on something in his lab when he heard Lexa's call.
"Hey Adam.. she woke up." Lexa informed over her comlink ring.
"Im going." Adam said coldly and left his research to gather with the team at the medical lab. He entered and quickly received looks. Brennan looked at him so surprised but yet angry and deceived. It wasn't necesary to add the elemental lost his trust on him. Shalimar looked at him and even she was angry, she couldn't help to be happy to have the team back again. Jesse was confused. He wasn't angry, he wanted to know why the hell he did that and what was happening. Lexa, on the other hand, she was more serious and cold than everyone else. And Emma, just waking up, couldn't help to open and close her eyes several times, for her it was still the nightmare she lived at Genomex.
"Seems we're all here now." Lexa said waiting for Adam to continue his chat with her.
"Yeah.. that's what it looks like." Brennan added immediately. "But we're not actually... our leader is missing."
"Brennan..." Jesse tried to calm down the elemental who burnt in anger.
"Its okay Jesse.. I know I have lots to explain. So I will." Adam said supporting his back to the wall. "Emma, are you okay?"
"Im fine Adam.. Im just... I feel like this is not real... its too good to be..." Emma said almoast in tears. Shalimar hughed her and conforted her for a moment.
"That's because is not good at all." Brennan said again, relaxing his head on the couch's arm.
"Emma.. Im sorry.. but.. I want to know what happened... if its not too much trouble for you to explain us..." Jesse said sitting near her. Lexa looked at him and then back at the psyonic.
"When the explosion ocurred I got stuck in some place, when I looked around, Echkart was next to me... His agents came looking for him and caught me too. They took us to some part in Genomex that wasn't damaged with the explosion thing, and they kept me there for almoast a month. Then, he visited me. He tortured me so I could tell him Sanctuary's whereabouts, and yours Adam, and he kept on doing that till Lexa found me and rescued me. I was quite weak at first so I couldn't let you know where I was, but after a couple of months I started being able to use my powers and I tried to project in your minds but somehow I couldn't... But I was able to establish a link with Lexa's mind.. and thanks to her.. im still here." Emma said trying not to start crying again.
"Well.. we know about Emma.. what's your story Adam?" Brennan asked him.
"Its time for you to know something." Adam started. "The Dominion.. its not what we thought it was."
"Go ahead." Jesse said.
"Im not what you think I am." He said as misteriously as before. "I started working on genetics with Mason, yes. But after we got separated I needed someone to help me build mutant x... to help me with mutant research and stuff.. I was alone and had no idea where to start. Then I met Jonathan Kylber. He was a mutant himself. He wanted mutants to have a place to live and be free..."
"No he doesn't." Lexa added. Adam ignored her comment and went on.
"So he helped me. He financiated everything, from Sanctuary, research, everything, so I own him a great deal..." Adam said. He paused again. " Then he asked me to do some jobs.. missions.."
"That's all we've been doing since we gathered..." Jesse filled in the blanks. "So everything we did... it was for that Kylber guy?"
"Yes and no. Yes he brought the missions, but it wasn't just for his sake guys.. everything we did... it was for everybody's sake." Adam said again.
"So what happened?" Shalimar asked him.
"He discovered the jerk's real plans." Lexa answered for him. Adam looked at her with a grin and then said.
"Kylber's missions started to get more and more weird. From robbing high tech equipment to killing mutants... That's when I realised... there was something he wasn't telling me. So I investigated." Adam said again. This time, he moved towards the computer and started typing some things. "At first I got nothing, but then soemthing came up." Suddenly a picture of an old man appeared in the screen along with a bio. The team approached and looked more closely.
"He is a very powerful man, that's true. But he doesn't want mutants sake. He wants to kill them. I investigated what kind of mutant was he, and nothing appeared. Whatever he is, its not good guys, and he is behind every single operation to bring down all mutants around the world. The Dominion is working to get some kind of plan to eliminate mutants.. all of them. I found out that just too late. And they found out about me finding out too. So I had to do something, they were willing to kill me and you if they suspected something. So I faked my own death. They wouldn't suspect from you, they would think I didn't have the time to tell you." Adam said waiting for the teams replies.
"But... couldn't you have told us this? Did you know all he suffered thinking we lost you? Emma I really have nothing to say to you, we didn't know you were trapped in Genomex, we thought you died... but now that we got you here... im really happy." Shalimar said looking at the psyonic. " But Adam..."
"If I have told you, you wouldn't be believable. I needed you to be safe, and the safer you were, was not knowing anything. But I also knew you needed some kind of protection. So I sent Lexa." The team looked at her and Adam went on. "Lexa knew everything I knew... so I told her about everything I wanted to do to protect myself and you and seh agreed to stay here untill I could come again."
"But what about the Dominion? Don't you work for them or something?" Brennan asked her.
"Yes I do. I work for them, but im concious of what they're doing so that's why I came here. Adam promised me we would take them down. Haven't seen than yet." Lexa said as she turned.
"Well... everything seems to be clearer now... except of in what part are we in? Im sorry to say this Adam, but if you didn't trust us for whatever you were doing, it doesn't matter why, I can't trust you in here." Brennan said leaving the room. He went towards his and closed his door behind.
"I don't blame him... so I want all of you to decide if you want me back or not.. If you don't I'll leave." Adam said honestly. Then suddenly dissapeared.
"What the...?" Jesse said looking at the air. Shalimar stood up and started leaving herself.
"Wait.. where are you going?" Emma asked her.
"Im gonna talk to Brennan." Shalimar answered from behind. She walked up the stairs towards his room and knocked.
"Don't want to talk right now Shal." Brennan said. He was lying on his bed just staring at the ceiling.
"How did you know it was me?" Shalimar said still not entering.
"Call it instinct." Brennan said again as he stood up weakly because of his wounds and opened up the door for the feral.
"How are you doing?" Shalimar asked worried as she passed softly her fingers to his wounds. Brennan left a soft moan when she did that, it hurt a bit. "Im sorry if I hurt you..." She apologised for the hurting.
"Nah its fine... you could never hurt me." Brennan assured as he looked at the feral in front of him. "So... I take you came here to talk about him uh?"
"Brennan... im just as hurt as you are.. we all are.. but we gotta get real. There is something out there threatening us, and we need to be together to fight it. I don't approve what Adam did, but he did it for us... and right now.. he need to stay together.. Adam said we should decide if he should come back or not.. and we need the entire team to do so." Shalimar said now touching gently his face.
"Yeah... guess you're right.." Brennan considered it.
"Of course im right... now come with me down there and lets all have a talk." Shalimar said as he grabbed her waist and they both headed to the computer room where Lexa, Jesse and Emma were talking.
"Well... what are we gonna do?" Jesse asked crossing his arms.
"Its pretty simple.. I say lets take Adam back but no leader stuff... we all decide what to do." Brennan said to them.
"But..." Shalimar started.
"No.. he lost his leader title when he let is down.. or was it just me?" Brennan said getting a little angry.
"Brennan... what he did was for us." Emma enphatized that sentence.
"It doesn't matter Emma! He betrayed us!" Brennan said again.
"Brennan I know loyalty means everything to you, but sometimes you have to give second chances." Shalimar said possing a hand on his shoulder.
"What do you think Lex?" Jesse asked her.
"Im not part of this team... you should decide without me." Lexa said coldly.
"What do you mean?" Jesse asked again. Lexa looked at Emma and smiled. She was happy teh psyonic was okay and back. But then she remembered Digger's words. That once Emma were back, she will be out.
"Im gonna stay to take down the Dominion.. then im out... so you shouldn't count me in for decisions since im not really part of the team.." Lexa said as she started to leave.
"Hey! You're not leaving. You are part of the team and you ARE gonna decide with us. And im telling you." Shalimar said to her. Lexa came back again but still unconfortable.
"Let's vote." Jesse said.
"FINE! YOU ALL WANT HIM BACK EVEN THOUGH HE BETRAYED US, FINE LETS HAVE HIM BACK!" Brennan snapped at the team.
"Brennan you're being too hard on him!" Shalimar said to the elemental.
"No Shalimar, Im not. But maybe you are being to soft on him. If you want him back fine, but don't count me in." He said as he started leaving. Shalimar and the rest walked behind him.
"Very nice Brennan, you're leaving... that's so brave of you." Shalimar said to him, after she saw no response she went to her room and slammed the door as hard as it could sound.
"Brennan wait up... we have to talk." Emma said trying to convince him.
"No, no talking Emma." Brennan said continueing with his way.
"But at least dont leave. Just think about it Brennan..." Emma said again. Now Jesse helping her.
"Yeah.. I know how you feel man.. we all feel like you, but we need to think clearly right now." Jesse said to him.
"Fine.. Lets have him back." Brennan said angrily and headed to his room slamming the door as hard as Shalimar.
"Can you explain me how are we going to take down The Dominion if you cant even stay for a minute without fighting with each other?" Lexa said to Emma and Jesse.
"Its not like that Lexa." Emma answered quickly. "Brennan and Shal... they'll work things out."
"Yeah.. I hope you're right... cause we are gonna need them talking to each other when we establish a plan." Lexa said again.
"What's your problem? Why are you so cold all the time? I've been inside you Lexa and you're nothing like that. Why don't you show that?" Emma said again now getting Jesse's attention.
"Stop messing around my head Emma! All I want is to take down The Dominion so back off." Lexa shouted and left.
"Well.. tell me Jess, what have you been doing so far?" Emma teased.
"regular stuff.. fighting the bad guys... computer stuff..." Jesse started.
"What about our happy couple?" Emma asked.
"You'd be surprised." He answered quickly as he thought about Shalimar and Brennan's none progressing relationship.
"What about you?" Emma asked again. "I've noticed a couple things between you and.." She didn't finish.
"She'd never let me in Emma... Maybe I should just let her go." Jesse said sadly.
"Oh c'mon you don't mean that." Emma said letting him know she was reading him completly.
"Course I don't!! But I don't know what to do either.." Jesse said again.
( )
"Damn Shal!! Why do you have to be like that when it comes to Adam..." Brennan thought loudly. He knew the man was a father to her, and it was to him too, but he couldn't help to feel mad when he thought about what he did. And teh fight with Shalimar. They've been figthing a lot lately and he didn't know why. Every since the explosion and Shalimar's regathering with her father and Emma's supposed death they have been getting a lot closer. He loved her but was too scared to tell her how he really felt.
"But Im right... he left us and now all he wants is to be back in the game..." Brennan thought loudly again. "But right now.. all that matters is how are we gonna take down the dominion.. nothing more... no time for love."
END OF CHAPTER SIX
Author notes: This was a very informative chapter... now that we know the situation things will start to get complicated guys. The team is not in his best moments lets just say... and yes, Brennan loves Shal but he'll have a hard time trying to figure if she feels the same about him and if its the proper time to tell her since they're all about to die.. yeah.. things will get complicated. For Jess/Lexa shippers, Emma is not gonna mess around them, so relax.. Actually now that Emma is back its hard to know where to put her... lol.. sorry i'll try my best to find her a nice little place... just kidding.. keep on checking, this is just the begining.

They've been figthing a lot lately and he didn't know why. Every since the explosion and Shalimar's regathering with her father and Emma's supposed death they have been getting a lot closer. He loved her but was too scared to tell her how he really felt.
"But Im right... he left us and now all he wants is to be back in the game..." Brennan thought loudly again. "But right now.. all that matters is how are we gonna take down the dominion.. nothing more... no time for love."
END OF CHAPTER SIX
Author notes: This was a very informative chapter... now that we know the situation things will start to get complicated guys. The team is not in his best moments lets just say... and yes, Brennan loves Shal but he'll have a hard time trying to figure if she feels the same about him and if its the proper time to tell her since they're all about to die.. yeah.. things will get complicated. For Jess/Lexa shippers, Emma is not gonna mess around them, so relax.. Actually now that Emma is back its hard to know where to put her... lol.. sorry i'll try my best to find her a nice little place... just kidding.. keep on checking, this is just the begining.
