Visions

"Ready?" asked Revolution.

"Yep," replied Max Monroe.

"What are you two doing?" asked Emma.

"Putting the new security net online," replied Revolution "It's supposed to work like a high tech low jack."

"Huh?" asked Shalimar.

"It's a thing they put into dogs and cars," exclaimed Max "So that they can be tracked."

"But how can we track New Order?" asked Jesse "Whose gonna get close enough to plant a bug in each of them? Cat?"

"No," replied Revolution "Its much simpler than that. Max...Run test."

The young telecyber nodded and the others watched in amazement as the program ran.

"Riley, did you write that program?" asked Adam.

"Uh huh," she replied as she typed in a sequence "With my boy Max's help."

Max mock saluted Adam.

"Just doing my duty," he said,

"MAXWELL!!" yelled a voice offscreen.

"Oh Balls!" whispered Max "I forgot I was grownded. Talk to you later."

"Bye Max!" they all said.

Adam placed a hand on Revolution shoulder.

"Nicely done," he said.

"Thanks," she replied.

"Guys!" yelled Cat "Breakfast is ready!"

"Mmm...Computer work make Rev hungry," she grunted.

Jesse laughed and kissed her gently.

Donna looked over at Cat as the feral hustled around the kitchen.

"You should tell them," she whispered.

Cat stopped dead in her tracks.

"Tell who, what?" she asked feigning innocence.

"Don't play dumb with me," replied Donna "You should tell the others about your assasin training, or at the very least tell Riley and Brennan."

"Tell us what?" asked Revolution as she walked into the room.

"That we are out of Apple Jacks," stuttered Cat.

"Damn!" said Revolution "Mmm...Bagels."

Lux's head darted around. Damnit Jax! she thought as she began to slip into a very powerful vision. Where are you?

"Help!" she whispered to no one.

Donna was furious at Cat but she understood her reluctance to share. She shook her head and walked out of the kitchen.

"OH MY GOD!" she yelled when she saw Lux.

The beautiful woman's face had turn a dark red.

"I can hear them," she whispered to Donna "The children are crying, My friends are hurt. People are dying, bombs are going off and no one can stop them."

"Jesus!" yelled Jax when she saw her.

"Jax...The Orphanage. Someone is going to destroy it and kill our children." whispered Lux.

Jax wrapped her arms around her boss and rocked her back in forth.

"We'll stop them," she whispered "I promise. Watch her, Mainframe?"

Donna swallowed hard and nodded. Jax let go of Lux and dashed off to the Computer lab to hook up with The Ring. Donna looked over at Lux, her face returning to some resemblance of normalcy.

"No..." whispered the young leader "It doesn't get better."

Donna watched her in shock as she followed Jax to the lab.

"Do you think they got there in time?" asked Revolution as Jesse helped her into the car.

"We'll know soon enough," he said "Right now, we have the clinic to deal with."

Revolution nodded and bit her lip.

"We're gonna get through this, right?" she asked.

He kissed her.

"I hope so," he whispered "I hope so."
