Chapter 4

'Why isn't Brennan answering Jesse, do you think his in trouble?' 'I doubt that, his with a hot woman alone in her flat, the only trouble he'll be in is good trouble' She growled.

Back at Cordelia apartment. 'I don't want to hurt you, just tell me the truth, who are you really working for and what do you want with Mutant X? Brennan asked, his hand still sparked with low voltage electricity. 'You first Brennan, I'm the one with the upper hand here; before you can say hello you'd be toast. (Although the Power's That Be had demonetised her, she didn't quite know what powers she had, she just hoped he wouldn't call her bluff). Brennan was at a loss, he had really fallen for this woman and after what happened with Shalimar he couldn't risk his heart again. Brennan without thinking used a low voltage ball of electricity and shocked Cordelia. She fell to the floor.

'Hay Jess' 'Brennan what happened man' 'Look Bren we have a mission here, one we no nothing about so if you could leave your little girlfriend alone for one second that'll be good' she said annoyed and jealous. Brennan dismissed her jealousy. 'Jess her names Cordelia Chase she works for Angel investigation' 'So, what your saying is you've been played she knew you were with Mutant x all along' 'Yeah! Look man, I've shocked her I'm going to take her to the safe house don't' want to risk brining her to the Sanctuary' 'Ok! Shal and I are almost at the Angel investigation place' 'Oh Jess head's up Cordelia is not human, so I doubt her boss is' 'Alright' 'Well Miss Pierce, that is the reason for the instability with your mutant power's' Lexa started to cry she couldn't believe it, all those tests Adam had done to fix her mutualisation. She was happy with Jesse, this would change everything their future, if she had one now. She swore to herself she would track down every GSA member and all would die at her hands.

'Stay alert Shal, any sign of trouble and we get out' Shalimar's eyes went feral, and she smiled slyly 'I mean it' They walked into the hotel. Shalimar went feral 'Their here I can smell em' 'Stay alert' 'Hello, we would like some help, is anybody in' Angel walked out of the darkness 'How can I help you'? He asked Gunn, Fred and Welsey also came out surrounding Shalimar and Jesse. 'Guess they don't want to play nice Jess' 'I guess not' 'Two against four that's hardly fair' Shalimar said before lunging at Angel. The two engaged in fierce battle. For every punch Shalimar threw, Angel met at every step. Fred launched a crossbow at Jesse, he went super dense and the arrow fell to the ground.

Cordelia woke up, she tried to get up, but her hands were tied firmly to a chair. 'Sht' she thought 'Hello sleeping beauty, well I guess you never had the upper hand after all' 'Where did you bring me jerk'? 'The way I see it Cordelia, your tied up, so I've go the upper hand and your going to answer every single question I have, because the next time I throw a lighting bolt it won't be a low voltage one.' Cordelia sighed. What the hell was she going to do now. Lexa sat on her bed and looked at her packed suitcase. This was the right thing to do she had to leave. Jesse would be hurt now but if she stayed she would cause him even more pain. She got up and picked up her suitcase, she would go and have the baby terminated, and after all she never wanted children especially if it would cost her, her own life.

She left the letter she had written to Jesse and walked out the Sanctuary.
