"Shit" said Lexa, "oh no, the Dominion just called me up to tell me about
some new experiment that they want us to keep an eye on."
"Lexa, does that have any relevance to this at all?" shouted Jesse.
Lexa gave him a cold stare before replying. "The Beard said that they gave two young new mutants a drug in their drinks last night, which would reduce the amount of control over their powers. He must have been talking about Steph and Ryan."
"Well, do the Dominion know how to stop it?" asked Shalimar, obviously shocked.
"That was the point of the experiment. They're trying to find new ways of controlling mutants, but they needed test subjects for the drugs, and they wanted us to capture the two 'volunteers' so that they could be observed," answered Lexa.
"So they don't have an antidote then?" said Shal.
Suddenly, Steph's heartbeat monitor started to flatline.
"Brennan!!" screamed Shal.
Brennan came running into the room, saw what was happening, and delivered an electric shock pulse directly into Steph's heart. Steph's heartbeat started to return to normal, and Brennan looked around at the others and said "Would somebody like to fill me in on what's happening here?"
"They got at your alcohol. How could you be so stupid as to keep alcohol in a place where there are teenagers around? Look what's after happening!!" Shal screamed at Brennan for a good five minutes before he was able to get her to calm down.
"Shal, look at me. You're angry with me because your little sister, and Jesse's little brother went to my room, and stole my drink? Come off it Shal, you know it wasn't my fault" But deep down inside, Brennan felt a horrible pang of guilt at the sight of the two teenagers lying unconscious on the lab tables. "So, what do we do now?" he asked.
"Lexa, does that have any relevance to this at all?" shouted Jesse.
Lexa gave him a cold stare before replying. "The Beard said that they gave two young new mutants a drug in their drinks last night, which would reduce the amount of control over their powers. He must have been talking about Steph and Ryan."
