Chapter twelve: Brand new begining... or just waiting?
Brennan opened lazily his eyes as he was immediately blinded by the light. He buried himself on the pillow refusing to get up. He heard someone knocking on the door.
"Argh! Damn.. who is this early??" He asked to himself. He stood up and opened the door sleepy.
"Hey... Adam wants all of us to meet him downstairs, so get dressed sleepy boy." Shalimar said leaving.
"Im hungry." Brennan complained to himself. He got dressed in seconds, brushed his teeth and washed his face. He started walking down the stairs of the hotel as he saw the team gathered in the cafeteria. He approached and took a sit.
"Morning Brennan." Adam said. Brennan muttered something about good morning too as he waited for Adam to explain whatever he was gonna explain them. "I know you all are wondering what the hell is next now. Well I don't have things clearer myself. I know The Dominion is out there.. waiting for us to make a wrong move. So we won't. The war is yet too far from being over. Its only the begining." Adam paused to drink his coffee. The team was getting nervous and anxious at every pause Adam made. "What? Coffee is good.. Aren't you gonna eat your breakfast?" Adam asked naively.
"C'mon Adam, whatever you have to say, just say it please." Brennan rushed him.
"Fine. Truth is I have no idea what's next." Adam said calmly.
"Adam!" Shalimar demanded.
"Its the truth. I have a faint idea yes, im gonna fix Sanctuary. This is the first step to do." Adam said again drinking his coffee.
"Im sorry about that.." Brennan said ashamed.
"No, you shouldn't. You saved us. You did what you had to, and im sorry I wasn't around to help you with your new powers. I am very sorry. But now I'll need sometime to arrange things and fix Sanctuary." Adam said again.
"Well then we'll help you. Just say whatever we have to do and.." Shalimar said but was interrupted.
"No, you won't." Adam said calmly.
"what? Then what are we gonna do? Just sit around and watch you work?" Jesse said ironically.
"Take this.. as some sort of vacation." Adam said with a smile.
"A what? We don't need a vacation! The dominion is out there waiting for us! Its the wrong time to have a vacation! Lexa said confused.
"If we are gonna fight, we are gonna do it well. And for that we need to get ready. So meanwhile, you enjoy life, when everything is ready im sure I'll be able to contact you." Adam said again.
"So.. this is it? Bye and take care?" Brennan asked Adam.
"No.. its not a goodbye. Its a see you later." He said. He stood up and started leaving. "You have your comrings if you need me." Saying so, he left the hotel.
"Wow..." Shalimar said.
"Yeah..." Jesse agreed.
"He's nuts. Vacation in the middle of a war? I mean get real.." Lexa said.
"Things are gonna get weird with no Sanctuary... I hated my appartement once I got used to it..." Shalimar said with a smile.
"So what are you guys gonna do?" Jesse asked. "Emma you havent said a word since we got here.. is something wrong?"
"Im leaving." Emma said not taking her eyes from the cup of coffee she had ordered.
"Yeah, we all are, but where are you going?" Brennan asked drinking his coffee.
"You dont understand. Im leaving and im not sure if I ever gonna come back." She said with a serious tone.
"What? why? what's happening?" Lexa asked confused.
"They did something to me. Genomex. Im not being myself most of the times. My eyes turn black. And I act like a psycho. Don't want that. I dont want to hurt you either. And being here near you like this, is gonna hurt you anyway. So Im going.. I have to find out what the hell did they do to me and how to take it out." Emma started.
"But Emma! You dont have to leave for that! Adam can help you.. we can help you too." Shalimar said.
"No, you cant." Emma said, her eyes turning black again.
"Emma.." Brennan said afraid of what the psyonic could do in a public place.
"I have to go. NOW. Dont look for me. dont make me get rid of my comring." She said leaving.
"Well... that leaves the four of us.." Jesse said to the piece of team left.
"Actually.. Jess... I was hoping you could.. help me do some research about the Dominion.. now.." Lexa said dragging Jesse to her own room.
"See you later guys." Jesse said with a smile.
"yeah.. see you later." Brennan said almoast bursting into laughs. Shalimar smiled too. They ended up breakfast and left the hotel. They started walking down a park as Brennan stopped her way.
"You know Shal... I wanted to tell you something... for a long time..." He started.
"Oh yeah? Well take your chance.. right place.. right moment.." She said supporting herself against a tree. Brennan sighed and smiled.
"Im in love with you. I have always been. And.. im sorry it took me a while to actually say it, but.. I.." He was interrupted.
"I love you too Brennan." She interrupted him. He leaned for a kiss, a soft and shy one first. When he felt he was being responded he started exploring her, putting his hands around her waist, shalimar hers around his neck. They broke appart and stood smiling.
"What do you think... we take those vacations Adam suggested..?" Brennan asked her still shocked and glad for what just happened between them.
"Sounds nice... where do you wanna go?" She asked kissing his neck tenderly.
"Anyplace sounds good if you are with me." Brennan said meeting her lips and kissing her deeply.
"mm, then im taking you would love to come to an excurssion to a jungle or something.." Shalimar teased.
"Shal.." Brennan said horrified at the idea.
"Just kidding... you're such a city boy.." Shalimar said.
"No im not.. I can.. survive with you in that jungle.." He said hoping she would not take that serious.
"Then a jungle it is." She said with a smile.
"huh..." Brennan said not quite convinced at all as she kissed him.

Adam was at one of the safe houses doing some research and trying to locate some of his contacts for help. Suddenly a messagge box opened up in the middle of the screen revealing a weird blurry image of a man.
"See Adam... when you're here.. we're already there." The man said and then the box closed.
"What the...?" He asked aloud to himself.
( )
"Oh my God.. Brennan look at this!" Shalimar cried out waiting for him to come.
"What is it? You sounded.." Brennan couldnt finish.
"And just a terrible huge explotion has ocurred in the middle of the town, we don't know of any responsibles yet, but this tragedy has taken over 50 lives and 120 injured people..." The man at the news said. Brennan and Shalimar were shocked. They were still looking at the tv with wide scared eyes.
"You think this is..?" Brennan started asking. He didnt want to end up that sentence that was for sure.
"They are telling the victims names.." Shalimar shut him not wanting to respond at his question. "Diana Moller? Charlotte Cookes?... they are all.." Shalimar started saying but froze in her fear.
"Mutants." Brennan finished for her.
THE END
Author Notes: Finally!!! I cant believe I finished this one! But dont worry, it will have a sequel where we'll see Emma back, some more of Jesse and Lexa, and Brennan trying to prove Shal he can stand the jungle.. And that war I talked about almoast all the fic and didnt even show up... lol... Paris
